COMING WITH A RUSH.
Inability to Sell the Staple Does Not
Check the Receipts.

Notwithstanding that there is no
market for cotton, and that the few
bales that are occasionally sold
bring only four to six cents pound,
the warehouses are the busiest
places in Dawson these days. The
staple is being brought in from ev-
cry direction by the wagon load, and
the receipts are heavy.
The number of bales of wagon cot
ton that have been brought to Daw-
son is 1857, and of this num-
Der only sos bales have been shipped
since the beginning of the season.
Bales of cotton may be seen lying in
the yard or under shelters on every
farm.
Estimates of the per cent of the
crop that has been gathered vary
from two-thirds to three-fourths.

A Request to Children.

For the past few weeks the chill
dren have been playing on the Bap-
fist church lawn and on the walk
from the sidewalk to the church
steps, and on the steps and in the
vestibule. Walking up the steps on
skates will soon damage them. We
know the children do not intend to
damage the church property, there
fore it will be much better for them
to stop playing there before they in
jure the property. MEMBER
