THE eOTTON CROP
The Condition as Reported by the
Times-Democrat.

The Tines-D Democrat presents its cor
respondents reports of the cotton crop
for the past month. Abe concensus OF
opinion is to the following effect:
In Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Mis-
sissippi. Louisiana and Tennessee i'm
provement has been the rule.
North Carolina as whole shows no
important change, but there has been q
distinct loss in South Carolina.
In Texas and OkIahoma there has
been sharp deterioration and the situa-
ton is critical
There is complaint of boil weevil in
some districts, but the damage can not
be estimated at this time.
The crop is very spotted and is pc
culiarIy subject to unfavorable condi-
lions.

GREAT BASEBALL ENTHUSIAST
Career Of Harry c. Pultfam, Late Ma
tionaT League President.


Harry Clay Pulliam, president Of the
National League of Professional Base
ball Clubs, who recently died in New
York by shooting himself, was born in
Scottsville Ky, thirtyn years ago,
and soon after finishing his college
up newspaper work. He served part
Of the tine in the capacity of city
editor, but was also interested in base
ball In 1898 he resigned as city ed
itor of the Louisville Commercial to
accept the presidency of the Louisville
year in the Kentucky legislature.
In Louisville Pulliam formed the ac-
quaintance Of Barney Dreyfuss, now
the owner of the Pittsburg club. They
were associated in baseball for num-
Der Of years in Louisville and Pitts
burg. Dreyfuss became president of
the Louisville club, and Pulliam be-
came his secretary and treasurer.
When Dreyfuss got hold of the Pitts
burg club and transferred his players
there he took Pulliam with him.
One Of Pulliam's greatest "discov-
cries" in baseball was finding Hans
Wagner, the best player in the game
today Wagner was playing in Pater-.
son, n J., at the time, and Pulliam
went there on the recommendation of
a friend and looked Wagner over He
signed him to contract and took him
to Louisville
Pulliam stayed with the Pittsburg
club until 1902, when he was elected
president Of the National league, sue
ceeding n. E. Young. About the time
of his accession to the presidency
peace was brought about between the
National league and the American
league, which had been at war.
Pulliam proved to be an energetic
official for the National league and
with considerable executive ability
During his regime many vexatious
problems have arisen, and he always
was active and conscientious in dealing
with such matters. He was anything
but figurehead president. One of
the hardest problems he had to deal
with was the famous New York-Chi-
cago game Of last year, which ended
in row at the Polo grounds in New
York and was afterward played over
on the order of the board of directors.
Once or twice efforts We're made at
the league annual meetings to GUST Pull
liam from the presidency, his admins
tration not suiting all hands, but he
had too strong support among the mag
mates, and the opposition to him dwin-
died away. He was high strung and
plain spoken. but impartial, and his
honesty of purpose always has been
recognized
While he was in Office the National
league came to enjoy greater prosper
ity than it ever had before. the exist
enee of two big leagues operating nm
der a peace compact being partly re-
sponsible for the prosperity. Some of
it, aowever. was due to his own efforts
for the welfare of the game. He al
ways had been stickler for having
his umpires treated with the respect
he considered was due them and stuck
to his umpires through thick and thin.

Accompanied by her husband. who
was always in the rear and only pres
ent as guard. Mrs Cruikshank
walked, crawied or climbed over fif-
teen miles of heavily wooded mountain
country, three miles of which had
never been invaded previously and
most of which was such as to test the
powers of the most experienced of
mountaineers.
Although Mount Field and Mount
Wiley were already the terminals of
trails from other mountains, they have
never been connected by path until

The Kabyle tribes. which are of Ber-
Der origin, are the people with whom
the soldiers of Spain are contending
for supremacy on the Riff coast of
Morocco. These tribesmen, who are
Sunni Moslems, are born soldiers.
Those of the plains have been recently
engaged in carrying out public works
connected with Spain's mining inter-
ests on the coast. while those efEthe
mountains by sudden raids have pc
riodically undone the work of their
brothers Of the plains.
The present revolt is due to the in
spiration Of the new sultan of Moroc-
CO, who recently, it is said, ordered
the Spaniards to evacuate the Riff
coast. The Kabyles, in carrying on
the revolt, are using some Mauser Ri
fies which were sold to them for his
personal profit by General Margaollo.
