FREE TIME ON COTTON
To Be Cut to 43 Hours on the Boston
& Maine Railroad.

Washington, Jan. 23.-Notifieation
has been received by tho Interstate
Commerce Commission thar the Bos-
ton & Maine Railroad will, after Feb
20, allow only As hours free time on
cotton shipments destined 10 points
on its line.
This action by the Boston & Maine
is a compliance with the uniform de-
murrage regulations recommended by
the commission and adopted by a ma
jority of the roads throughout the
country. The uniform demurrage
rules were not accepted by the New
England lines as a whole because of
the peculiar conditions existing in that
territory.
a few years ago tho Boston & Maine
gave 10 days free time on shipments
of cotton, but recently the free time
was reduced to five days. Now, the
road has decided that it further will
reduce the free time to As hours in
accordance with the demurrage regu-
lations.
The difficulty with which all of the
New England roads have been labor
ing is fundamental. Cotton is shipped
from some point in the South to Il
consignee in New England bearing a
cabalistic address or mark. The ad-
dress may be marred or absolutely de-
stroyed en- route. The bale of cotton
can be identified only by its quality
and even that identification cannot be
relied upon.
The result is that hundreds of bales
of cotton lie in the railroad warehouse
sometimes for many months. Mean
time as prices iluctuate the cotton
may become more valuable or less

The Yankee Doodle Boy

The day has passed when theatre
patrons will pay to have their in
telligence insulted by productions
Of melodramas with impossible
sensational scenes; also they are
equally tired of the frivolous 30
called musical comedies, which are
nothing but burlesque entertain
msnt5 under another guise.
"The Yankee Doodle Boy" tells
a pure, consistent story of Ameri-
can life, sweetly pathetic in spots,
but the main element is comedy
and good honest comedy it is-the
kind you are not ashamed to
laugh at. The play was last sea-
sons biggest financial success, and
Messrs. Jones & Crane, its spon-
sers, have booked a complete route
OF return dates. This seasons COM
pany has received glowing press
notices for clever work both vocal
and dramatic.
Vic. Crane has furnished ten
new original song hits for this
seasons tour and you will heal
them whistled on the streets the
morning after.

Draw Up TO the Hearth.

1t begins to look different in the
country. The grass is turning
tawny, the catalpa leaves are falling,
and there is more purple in the dis
tance than there was a few days ago.
The goldenrod is waving its splend-
id pennants and the wild aster makes
the roadway royal. The odors that
come up from the earth are changing.
There is something less succulent
about them, something more spicy.
sometimes il seems as if incense
we're burning, and now and then
there is a hint of wood smoke, as
if distance forests were ahame. In
the early morning the bath
has a bite to it, and at night one
becomes conscious of his hearth.
For months he has forgotten it and
has remembered only his hammock
or his easy chair. He has spent
his evenings star watching and has
been aware of the waxing and wan
ing ofmoons. Now, imperceptibly,
he is turning from the empyrean to
the ceiling,
1t comes over him airesh that he
is a ireside creature, that he loyes
a roof. needs shelter, and Is most
himself when he has home for his
background. TO be the child OF
Nature is sweet, but somewhat too

summer he feels the consciousness
of his own mastery of conditions.
lie is the head of his home, and his
home is little kingdom--a person

he has gathered his conyeniences;
here shown his particular taste;
here are his books: here is the table
at which be sits with his family and
his friends. Here is home.
SO, if you brought cones from
the woodland, bring them now and
put them in the fireplace, for the
evenings have a touch of chill, and
it's time TO close the door aud draw
up the chairs TO the hearth. The
outside world was fair, but no fair
er than ones own freside; the voices
of the summer night were sweet, but
not SO dear, after all, as those
which custom has made familiar
