Generous fortunes sway
The Market-place today.


The Market-place today.
Today the Sun enters Leo, q
sign ruling parts Of the United
States and much Of Europe.
General discomfort over ma
tional interests is in the sign,
for It signifies "grumblings
against rulers"
Austria enters on a time of
troubles, accordine,to the signs
governing that part of Europe.
Mercury this day attains the
greatest heiiocentric latitude
north. Jupiter occupies FORUM
ate place, controlling favora-
bly, for industry and trade, in
the morning especially.
The tendencies are in favor
Of commercial dealings, coun-
ellis concernings finance and
business, contracts and the un-
dertaking of responsibilities.
The time should prove aus
picious for new undertakings.
Travel is under good augury,
This afternoon and and eve
ming are ruled we'll for recrea-
ton, especially in the open air.
The sign of Leo is fiery, fixed
and royal. During it's rule,
great things may be accom-.
pIished by those whose aims
are higher than merely for
Temporarily orldIy advantage.
One of the effects Of the in
fIuences that may make itself
felt today under the rule Of
Jupiter, is for pride and haughti-
ness on the part Of just and
magnanimous persons If they
are misunderstood or their mo-
tives are questioned.
"Firmness without austerity,
sincerity without foolish con.
fidences and Righteousness
without can't are the qualities
that will best serve in this per-
iod.
The time should prove very
fortunate for engaging men or
women for any purpose.
Striking news will probably
comet rom under seas and
through air" within short
period.
Persons born between this
date and July 20 are subject to
the influences of the cusp of
Cancer-Leo, a combination that
is fortunate, according to as
ogy, because the fierce fire Of
Leo is contriIIed by the tact
and prudence granted by Can
Ger. These subjects should
cultivate happy dispositions
and set their ambitions high,
and not in vain things.
Persons with this blrth-date
are further governed by Aquar-
ious, and should profit during
the twelvemonth by kind deeds
and staunch love for friends.
Children born today are un-
der stairs that promise sunny
spirits and versatility.

A THRILLING RIDE.
The Piano Run a Frenchrnan Gave .
 Locomotive Engineer.

The Piano Run Frenchnan 1a's
 Locomotive Engineer.
 .I was lettering around the stree's last night" said Jim Nelson. one of the old locomotive engineers running into New Orleans. As l had nothing 10 do drop6ed into concert and heard a sleek looking Frenchman play piano in a way that made me feel all over in spots. AS soon as he sat down on the stool l knew by the way ne handled himself that he understood the machine he was running. lie tapped the keys away up one end, Just as if they were gauges and he wanted to see if he had water enough. Then he looked up as if he wanted to know how much steam he was carrying, ah1 the next moment he pulled open the throttle and sailed on to the main line as if he was half an hour late. You could hear her thunder over culverts and bridges and getting faster and faster, until the fellow rocked about in his seat like cradle. Somehow thought 1t was old 36 pulling a pas senger train and getting out or the way of special. The fellow worked the keys on the middle division like lightning, and then he flew along the north end of the line until the drivers went around like buzz saw and got excited. About the time l was fixing to tell him to cut her off a little he kicked the Hampers under the machine wide open, pulled the throttle away back in the tender, and how he dld run, I couldn't stand it any longer. and yelled to him that he was pound- ing in the left side, and if he wasn't careful he'd drop his ash pan. But he didn't hear. No one heard me, Everything was flying and Whizzins. Telegraph poles on the side ot the track looked like a row of cornstalks, and trees appeared to be a mudbank. and all the time the exhaust of the old machine sounded like the hum of bumblebee tried to yell out, but my tongue wouldn't move. He went around the curves like bullet. slipped an eccentric, blew out his soft plug went down grades fifty feet to the mile ard not controlling brake set. She went by the meeting point at mile and half minute, and calling for more steam. My hair stood up straight, because knew the game was up. Sure enough, dead ahead of us was the headlight of special. In daze I heard the crash as they struck. and l saw cars shivered into atoms. people smashed and mangled and bleeding and gasping for water. l heard another crash as the French professor struck the deep keys away down on the lower end of the southern division, and then came to my senses. There he was at a dead standstill. with the door of the frebox of tine machine open, wiping the precipitation off his face and lowing to the people before him. If live to be a thousand years old I'll never forget the ride that Frenchman gave me on a piano." Life. ....4-,.,@,~.

An Ancient Industry.

It would be difficult to say where exactly and at what date the manufac- ture of cotton fabrics began. In com paratively modern times, says Country Life, it has become an industry of i'm. portance in Europe, but it has four ished in the east from period too re- mote to admit of calculation. The Egyptians certainly used both cotton and linen materials. for fragments of such stuffs have been preserved among the other relies of their ancient civi. lization. and there is much reason tG believe that tt,a elaborate draperies of the .Assyrians were cotton or muslins finely woven and of delicate texture. Tn China, too. and India the saln~ kinds of material have been the co,n. clcn wear Of tho people eroin time 'n pelncs:al. y fact everywhere througi out the ea' cotton fabrics were pro. duced and used long before the primi tive Europeans had begun to develop any of the graces of civilization or in deed had ceased to be anything but skin clad savages.

An old. steady going farmer was ac customed to ride to the market town upon rather bad tempered horse.
 One day his man Bob brought the animal. which was especially vicious that morning. to the door. the horse trying to bite and kick and giving a good deal of trouble.
 The farmer mounted the horse wit some difficulty and began to walk ii; out of the yard when BDh. who still entertained i'll feeling against the ani mal, picked np stone and flung it a him with all his force: put. alas. his aim was erratit', and the missile struck his master on the head

A Spartan Father.

Recently first year high school pu- pill handed her history teacher what she evidently considered an exhaustive and final study of Lacedaemonian GUS toms. In it she stated that one Spar tan habit of strengthening youth was to compel the boys to sleep always on beds and thistles.

THE SOITH'S PROSPERITY.

Ex-President Roosevelt will make lis debut or re-entrance into the arena of national politics by way of the South At least he has condi- tionally accepted the invitation ten- dered him by the Southern Commer- cial Congress which meets at Atlanta Ga., to make the opening speech in his tour of the country there.
 Incidentally, in the letter he an- nounces plain his determination to hinge his political platform on the issues of conservation of national re-
 sources, remarking that the South has made greater progress ill the last decade or two than any other part of the Union. This statement not only affords clue as to Colonel Roosevelt's plans regarding the 1912 campaign, but it also furnishes him with captivating catchery that will suit all parts of the country alike. 1t is vague and indeterminate in character, meaning much or little, or even nothing, according to the strength of his hearers imagination Coupled with Roosevelts personal popularity in the West and his ten- dency to pose as a Westerner by choice and adoption such an issue is likely to assume the first named character. of meaning much to the people in the various sections of the South and West that will be in cluded in his tour. Each community will like to hear it's praises sound- ed and the wealth of its resources heralded to the world by speaker of such international renoMn as the country's only living eX-President. The South particularly will be pleas ed to receive his flattering commen- dations, owing to the fact that it has hitherto been ignored in large meas ure in the various schemes of publi- city which have been launched in re- cent years in relation to the national resources. For this reason many persons will be surprised to hear, as Colonel Roosevelt rightly says. that the progress of that section is greater than that of any other part of the Union. The Southern people are very conservative in their ways, prone to pursue the even tenor with out invoking the aid of advertising, but as a matter of fact their progress l has been truly remarkable in the de- | velopment of their resources. This {, is due chiefly to the imperative ne- ceSSlty of the cotton manufactures | of New England to move their plants closer to the raw product and their i hegira brought millions of dollars ] with it to be used in developing iron | mines, coal mines, forests and other | allied industries and adjuncts in | building their plants. In addition to | this source of wealth the Southern | states have begun to diversity their | products. Moreover, a remedy has been found to kill the boil weevil, 1 which has reduced the cotton crop of Texas at least 50 per cent in the last ten years and has been slowly hut surely spreading to other states. Thus mining and manufacturers have sprung up in various sections, the chief source of wealth, the cotton crop, has been rehabilitated and new industries involving the investment of millions of dollars have been start ed in every Southern state.
