HOT WEATHER DELAYS PICKING OF COTTON

l
 Athens, October 7.-(Special.) )-Never in the history of this county were the cotton |felds as white as they are at this time. kThe weather has been so fearfully hot Ithat it has been impossible to get suf- |ficient people to pick. The low price has ibeen such as to create a dispiriting eff fleet. The farmers who are not forced | to sell are taking their cotton home with them, but many have to sell and some |bave to sell to get money to pay for pick ling, while others are forced to sell be- cause of the mortgage. There is a spirited light on here between the two large gin neries.
 Athens is installing a new pump at the |water and light station which cost the Icity handsome sum, but which will de- C1iver a sufficient amount of water during : the night to run the city during the day. The new street leading to the fair grounds is rapidly being finished by the Icity authorities and a four foot cement |sidewalk will be built on both sides of tthe street from the court square to the &entrance of the fair grounds, and this will Ebe ready by the morning of October +, Ewhen the third annual fair of this coun-
 2y will open. The catalogs are out and
 he advertising matter for the third fair |is being sent out. The grounds are In |ine shape and the track has been great Ily improved. The fair will continue for Hour days, beginning on Tuesday, October I17, closing Saturday, October 20.
 Circuit court has been in session this week, Judge Speak presiding, but the docket is very light and but little is be- |in1 done. Next week is criminal week and a number of cases will be tried.

CALVE MASCOT
FOR ROTHSCHILD

Harry Armitage has received a let
ter from Australia telling of new
kind of mascot discovered there by
Madame Calve and presented by her
to Baron Rothchild, who won a $780,
900 race Immediately after getting it.
The letter says:
Mrs. Larsen, who's husband keeps
the store where l bought most of the
Greenstones, told me of a letter that
she received from Madame Calve, the
great opera singer, who purchased a
! Tiki from her while she was in New
Zealand. 1t appears that shortly after
she left N. q. for Paris, she saw Bar
on Rothchild, who, by the way, is a
great friend of hers, so she presented
him with the Tiki" telling him that
if he wore it he would be sure to
have good luck Shortly after re-
ceiving the Tiki a very unpromising
/ horse of the BaroD's won the Grand
Prize de Paris. This race is the great
| est in France, and valued at 100000
The Baron attributes his good luck
and success, solely to the fact that he
wore the New Zealand Tiki. Mrs Lar
sen says that since that event they
receive quite a number of French or
ders for Tikis. Now, its up to you tC
