REALLY NAMED FOR STATE
Mississippi River Steamers Originated
Coanomen That Has Now Be-
come Universal.

On the Mississippi river in olden
days the passenger steamboats, were
very ornate affairs, yying with each
other in garish glory. One owner hit
on the idea of naming his steam
boats cabins instead of numbering
them So he named them in honor Of
the states of the union, each having
above the door the gilt title of some
state, the big central cabin being call
ed the Texas" after the largest state.
Other boat owners took up the idea,
and thus the word cabin was grad
ually alternated by state" room. For
years the best cabin was still known
as the Texas. Then that sobriquet died
with the ebbing glory Of the old river
steamers But the word 'stateroom"
became incorporated into our Ian
guage and in time even broke into the
dictionary, as does many another
catch phrase. Not one person in thou
sand who occupies stateroom knows
the term once meant "a room named
for a state"

Goes to Tuscaloosa
Tuesday

Carroilton, August 17.-(Special.)--An ef-
fort Is being made to build a pike road
from the Tuscaloosa line, leading out
by Gordo, Reform, Carrollton and into
Aliceyiile. With that end in view, quite
humber of prominent citizens appeared
before the commissioners court at its
session the past weelS seeking aid from
the county in the construction of the
same.
The citizens along the route are very
enthusiastic over the matter and liberal
donations will be forthcoming The COM
nissioners' court discussed the matter,
and it was agreed to donate as much as
the citizens would raise up to an amount
not exceeding $1,000
The Pickens county good roads scouts
will journey to Tuscaloosa next Tuesday
where they will be guests of the board
of trade of that city, and these two or
ganizations will work together in secur-
ing aid from Tuscaloosa for the construc-
tion of the pike road to the Piclens line.
Notwithstanding the fact that the boil
weevil has made his appearance in this
section the cotton crop was never better
than at the present time. While his raw
aging effects will be felt in the destruc-
tion of the. top crop, there is a good yield
all eady In sight with the bottom and mid
die crop. While the old corn crop was
materially cut off by the long drouth there
is large acreage planted in young corn
which promises to make an abundant
yield.

COTTON NERVOUS
DURING WEEK
Net Changes Favor Bull
Side of Market-Rains
Encourage Bears

New Orleans, August 1.-THE net
changes In the price of cotton this week
favored the bull side of the market to
the extent of II to IA points. The high
prices of the week were made on the
closing session; the low prices were made
OH Thursday. A. the highest the trading
months were Is to 20 points over last
weeks close; at the lowest they were 10
to II points under. The range of prices
was 20 to 80 points.
Throughout the week the market made
and below the level of last weeks close.
Bears We're continuously encouraged by
reports of rain here and there in Texas
and Oklahoma and the hope always was
before them that the long drouth in those
two states was about to be broken. The
market always recovered however, and
toward the end of the week worked high
er than ever on reports owing that no
effectual relief actually mad been given
the drouth area in the west. On the
week end shorts were nervous and in
clined to cover and there was more dis
position on the part of the trade in gen.
eral to buy for long account than for
some time.
Trade circulars at the close of the week
summed up the crop situation by stating
that conditions in the western belt were
becoming serious, and that marked de-
terioration had taken place. 1t was gen.
orally conceded that the eastern half
of the belt was doing we'll. Reports from
Georgia especially were encouraging.
