Severe Liquidation Arrested.

The course of stocks during the morning
indicated that severe liquidation such
rs has upset the market recently had
been arrested.
London sold about 25,oOo shares here at
the opening, chiefly Amalgamated, Steel
and Union Pacific. This selling was
largely responsible for the excited f1uc-
tuations OF the first few minutes. al
though bear spectators helped along the
decline until they discovered that stocks
were being taken by substantial interests.
The inquiry was better. as the recent
severe slump had brought into the market
the buying orders of an investment char
acter. The demand. however, was not
keen. and trading tapered out on the
recovery.
Prices Rise Despite Some Weakness.
Prices continued to rise during the
morning despite the weakness of the Pc
troleum stocks. Can and Smelling pre-
ferred, the latter losing three points.
Bonds were heavy.
Liquidation. which had been temporari-
" suspended in certain minor railroads
and inqustriais, broke cut again with
some violence. This development caused
the standard stock again TO break

Aliens Minstrels Sept. 10Th.

A.G. Aliens Minstrels gave a concert
in Frederick Monday night to large
audience. The performance was given
in a large tent and it was one of the
best of the kind that has been heard in
the city for a long time. Every one
connected with this show from A, 6.
Allen down to the lowest fiunky seems
to be courteous and agreeable and they
made friends of all with whom they
came in contact. The performers were
all colored people and there were a
score or more of them who sang, danced
and cracked jokes. There was also
some gilt edged tumbling. A good
band rendered some excellent music.
This performance was as free of vul-
gar dancing, rude jokes and songs as
any professional minstrel show that
ever visited this locality and the enter.
tainment was worthy of the liberal
patronage given it. Frederick (Okla.

of bird law that will prohibit the
killing of all birds for a period of to
5 years,
A resolution was made and adopted
that our delegates to the state union
shall go to the state union uninstruct-
ed.
The following named brethren were
duly elected as delegates to the State
Union: 7. G. Stephenson, K. q. Went
worth.
The following resolution was adopt
ed:
Whereas. the price offered the farm
er for his cotton seed is about half
their value, and whereas, this price is
regulated by the cotton oil trust,
which is defying the laws of our state,
and whereas, the courts are either
unable or unwilling to break up this
trust so that demand and supply can
regulate the price of this important
commodity; therefore be it resolved
That the legislature at its next ses-
sion be requested to enact law, max
| ing it the duty of the trustees OF the
penitentiary to build and equip oil
mills at each of the state farms, and,
/ II necessary AZ otnSl SShtSAS va N|N~
production, these mills TO be operated
and managed so far as possible by the
state convicts, the state to pay Tor
cotton seed its productive value. TINS
enterprise, if lconducted in business
way. would break up the present mono
molly in cotton seed and its products.
Resolved, That our delegates to the
State Union be instructed to bring
this matter before that body and use
their best efforts to get acted on favor
ably.
A motion was made and adopted that
the president of each local union ap
point one of its members to circulate
petition asking the Board of Supervis
ors to pass law prohibiting the kill

years.

Burned by Live Wire.

Late Friday, just at the noon hour,
D. C. Lundy, lineman for the electric
light people, received all the current
carried by one of the day service wires
and for an hour several physicians
worked faithfully to prevent complete
collapse. Lundy picked up one end of
a wire thinking it was dead and intend
ing to connect it with another section.
On taking hold of the other wire he
completed the circuit and received the
full charge. His cries for help were
quickly answered and with consider
able effort the live wires were removed
from his grasp. He was carried to
the station platform where, for a while,
many thought he was dead.
Lundy's friends who read this will
duolbess be glad to learn that he has
not only entirely recovered from the
shock, but that he was happily mar
ried last Sunday. .-Gilmer TEX. Star

Hon. J. G. Watson Solves the Cotton
Estimate Problem.
Mr. Editor.

Mr.. Editor:
AS | have been asked, perhaps, a
hundred times how the government ar
rived at an estimated number of bales
of cotton raised in any particular year
from a report given in percentage; and
have asked the same question, per-
haps, as often, and having failed to
find any one who professed to know any
thing of the method, so | feel conf
dent that have solved the problem,
and with your permission, will pro-
ceed to give, through your paper, my
solution that any one, desiring the in
formation, could have it for what it is
worth.
The department would, when the
cotton was planted, get up the acreage
for that particular year and divide this
by 2-as one-half bale per acre is taken
as a normal crop giving US the total
normal for that year and this is repre-
sented by 100. Now, you see, if the
crop promised at any time to make
more than one-half bale, how it could
be estimated at more than 100; and OF
course, if promise is for less than lOO
the report could indicate this.
Example: Take the present acreage,
36, 900, 900 and over Il have forgotten
the exact number) and divide it by q
we have the total normal crop for the
present year to be l8,0OO,0OO and over
