The First Autnmahiliat-

Nicholas Joseph Cugnot was the first
Rutomoblllst. Many years before Ste
phenson had introduced his railway
locomotive Cugnot, who was mill
tary engineer, had made a locomotive
for roads. His locomotive has been
piously preserved at the Conservative
aes Arts ct Meters. Cugnot died in
1904. His lot was not that of many
geniuses. He did not die In want. Ma
poleon had secured him a pension of
1000 francs-passing rich on $500 a
year. In this respect the premier con-
sui showed more enlightenment than
he did in regard to Fulton Of steamboat
fame, whom he considerable is dis
tressing to write-an adventurer. Cug-
not's carriage was built to transport
arms and he had designed a service
gun, These achievements alone would
be a passport to Napoleon's favor

NEGROES AXE TAKEN IN
FORCE TO The FIELDS
Cotton PiCkSrS in Demand at
Present

Every Americas negro, old or youngy
male or female, can get a job this
week if they want it, and at good
wages. The cotton fields are white
unto the harvest and the cleaners are
in demand. Dozens of farm wagons
went out yesterday morning, loaded to
the guards with negro cotton pickers
Of every variety from the queen of
the kitchen" to the diminutive delivery
boy who holds down a job at the corn
er grocery. Such is the demand for
cotton pickers that special induce
ments are being offered, in view of
the threatened approach Of a storm
from the gulf, and the streets and al
leys were raked of all who cared to
ride down to the farm. In consequence
there will be world of cotton picked
this week, if the weather permits.
