are merging from serfdom. With
so many from East, North, South,
and West, enlisting under the old
standard, Democracy will win. As
Theodore scabbed a putrid sore,
Woodrow will be balm to heal it.
Willie will be a dead Amazon.
Alas!
| can't conceive any very great
fight between capital and labor.
Capital is more conservative than
ever-indeed it has become as tame
as the insect in the negro's wool
it's too thick for him to move fast.
Besides the interest of capital is
identical with the country's pros
perity, developing alone on mining
and farming. The day was once
when every school boy with journ-
alistic turn of mind, with trenchant
pen could stullify and dictate to
the farmer, but now he reaps his
dollars by millions spent in his up
lifting and edifcation. Capital,
public and private, is at the helm
of this movement and will stand by
US long as we dare.
So, brother farmers, let US live
at home on our own rood and we
will never beg for something to
wear or money 10 buy.
So mote it be! Amen.

ss CENTS PER POUND.
First Bale of Cotton Brought
S2O5.5S. staple IL Inches.

Mr.. I. B. Allen, who marketed
the first bale of cotton of the sea-
son, realized 38 cents per pound
for it in Vicksburg last Friday.
The staple measured ~ inches,
and the bale brought S2o5 SO, the
price of four ordinary bales. OF
course the price paid was far above
the market value, but this does not
concern the man who raised the
cotton.
The most remarkable thing is
the fact that the first bale received
was staple instead of short cotton.
1t has long been claimed that sta
pie cotton does not mature as ear
" as short cotton, hence the latter
has been considered the onlv safe
kind to plant in boil weevil terri
tory. Now that it has been proved
that the staple varieties are able to
hold their own with the weevil, II
is very probable that they will su'
percede the shorts again in this
section.

town, located in an old-time office
of one of our famous and much
beloved physicians, it is slowly but
surely making its way to recogni-
tion.
A chat with the two ladies who
are the originators, reveals some
interesting items. Noting last fall
the great demand for canned goods
in every household, as we'll as the
waste of the raw material during
the summer, these ladies wrote to
the Agricultural Department IN
Washington for bulletins and IN
structions in canning, picking and
preserving. Meeting with every
encouragement, they decided to
start in the spring, to be in readi-
ness for the fruit and vegetable
season. They ordered modern
Gamer, with all the appliances,
from Chattanooga, Tenn, and is
sued circulars as to what would be
the extent of their work. Kind
friends gave them helping hand,
and on their shelves are to be seen
rows of beautiful canned goods
labelled and ready for market Sep
tember 1st, and preserves, pickles,
Iiellies, marmalades, galore, enough
to make glad the heart of every
good house keeper. The produce
was bought far and wide, some
farmers hauling it II to 20 miles
and telling the ladies they were 81
glad they could find market TO
their truck, and another year they
would do better and raise who'll

his little bag of vegetables acros

TIED AND ROBBED.
Former Port Gibson Lady has
Terrible Experience in
New York.

Knocked unconscious by po-
tato masher welded by former
maidservant, and then tied by a
rope to a bed, Mrs. May Bernheim-
er, the wife of Sidney Berneimer,
a manufacturer of woman's CLOTH
ing at ID East Thirty-second street,
was robbed of $4,000 worth OF
iewelry in her apartment a II West
Elghty-ffth street.
Mrs. Bernheimer is now contn-
ed to her bed in a serious condition,
it is reported, being attended by
two physicians. Meanwhile the
police are searching for the two
women who, Mr.. Bernheimer de-
clares assaulted and robbed her.
1t is one of the most remarkable
cases that the police have been
called upon recently to handle.
According to Mr.. Bernheimer,
whose information, he says, came
from his wife, Mrs. Bernheimer
did her usual marketing and re-
turned home. She went at once
to the front door of her apartment
on the second floor of the apart
ment house in West Eighty-ffth
street, which is at end of a long
and somewhat dark hallway.
Two women were standing 10
the hall near the Bernheimer apart
ment, the victim, alleges. One of
these she AYERS she recognized as
being a maid whom she had dis
charged. The other woman Mrs.
Bernheimer did not know.
AS Mrs. Bernheimer entered her
apartment she saidone of the wom-
en- nit her over the left eye with
a potato masher and knocked her
into unconsciousness. Then the
PHOSPHATE woman was dragged
into her bedroom and tied to the
post of the bed by means of a cot
ton rope.
After that the rooms were ran.
sacked for valuables, it is alleged
by the Bernheimers. The robbers
are reported to have made AWAY
with pearl necklace, two watches
some diamond pins and diamond
rings, all estimated to be worth
$4,000.
How long Mrs. Bernheimer re
mained insensible she does no
know, but finally she regainet
consciousness and dragged hersel
to a rear window, overlooking
dairy opposite the rear of the apart
ment house. Pulling herself vi
to the window the woman scream
ed for help. An employee of tn
dairy hurried around to Wes
Eighry-ffth street and broke ope
the front door of the Bernhelme
apartment.
Then Drs. Dreyfus of AZ Wes
Eighty-htth street and CohD

They found that Mrs. Bernheime
was suffering from shock and tt
wound above her left eye. St

The most important. consideration

1pon the market which will pay the
pest. The layers are seldom as good
for raising. frying and broiling as
some Of the larger breeds, as they
usually weigh less at the same age,
though maturing even more quickly in
