Mr.. and Mrs. J. d. F,s:er went to
Memphis on last Saturday where the
latter underwent an operation on Mon
day of this week for APPENDICITIS. The
operation was successful and when
Mr.. Foster talked to the Falcon We'd
nesday afternoon, he gave the infor-
nation that the surgeon in charge had
inforped him that his wife's condition
was favorable and as satisfactory as
could be hoped. Mr.. Foster is missed
from the mechanical department Of
the Falcon this week ard it is hoped
that Mrs. Fosters condition may inn
prove rapidly so that he may be at his
post next week and she soon at her
home again.
The Falcon has been requested to
announce that the management Of the
ri-Circuit Sunday School convention
have appointed Thursds5 July 8 as the
date for their usual annual outing at
Riverside Park near Rossville. This.
The Rossville Picnic, as it is
familiary known thruout the county.
is one Of the leading annual affairs of
this section and always attracts large
gatherings Of people from all over this
and adjoining counties, . special train
being run from Memphis each year to
accommodate parties in that city who
are regular attendants at the picnic.
Plans are already making to entertain
the large crowd and assurance is given
that the day will, as usual. be one of
much pleasure to all who visit River
side Park on that date.

When Falcon representative asked
County Court Clerk C. W. Crawford
for news few days ago the clerk drew
forth a copy of the new Revenue bill
passed by the recent legislature and
began telling US the changes. Among
them is license fee Of $ll.50 for every
picnic that is held for profit. A neigh
borhood gathering with basket dinner
does not come under the license regula-
ton, but every picnic where sales are
made of things to eat and drink
will have to come across with the
eleven fifty before they have legal
right to conduct such an affair. Picnics
where the entire net proceeds go to re-
ligious or charitable purposes are also
exempt. Under the new law, too.
every automobile in the state must re-
gister again the first of next year and
pay its tax to the state. This tax il
$3.50 for cars with capacity of four
passengers or over and Sc for cars with
capacity Of less than four. There are
in the state %. 1873 cars registered up
to June 20, and the tax they pay will
make more than s135, 200.
What Chairman - G. Shelton thinks
is, without doubt. the Oldest outstand-
ing warrant of FaYette county was
presented to the trustee few days ago
by Lowell Sanders of Lsconia. The
warrant was for 81 and was issued in
January 1891 to Peyton F. Parker to
pay for his services as an officer of
election in the November election 1890.
Mr.. Parker transferred the warrant to
ESQ. Sanders, who was his brother-in-
Law. and il was put with other papers
and was never presented for payment
until last week. After the death Of
Mrs. Sanders more than q year ago the
warrant was found among old pspers
and vas brought to the trustees ofice

Quite a scandal was created few
mornings ago by one of our prominent
and best-known citizens beating his
wife up. Several of the neighbors
claim to have seen part of the incident.
This paper withholds the mans name
as he promised his wife that it will
never happen again, and as he is now
ashamed of his actions. he should not
be condemned too severely by other
husbands. 1t was at least-as early as
$50 in the morning and eye-witnesses
declare that he not only beat his wife
up, but actually had the fire going and
the coffee pot on before the surprised
lady could get to the kitchen and fully
realize how badly she was beaten up.
In the rush of events last week we
completely forgot to mention the home
talent play, paid in Full" given at
the auditorium the preceding Friday,
under the auspices of the High School,
and under the direction of j. F. Bren-
nan, of Kelly & Brennan. The play
drew packed house which voiced its
approval of the performance at fire.
quent intervals. Mr.. Brennan, as
matter of course, gave remarkably
good presentation of the character of
gruff but discerning old Captain Will
liams, while Miss Rose Smith, as Emma
Brooks, the courageous wife of weak
and worthless Joe Brooks, did splen-
didly in that role. Miss Mildred Dynes,
as Mrs. Harris, and Grace Adams, as
Beth, her daughter, played their parts
finely. Leo Tinker, as Joe Brooks,
gave capable Interpretation of that
character, and Earl McCrady, as Jimsy
Smith, and Ernest Hurd, as Sato, the Jap
anese servant, played their parts most
acceptably. Considered altogether, the
performance was much above the aver
age for home talent plays and was cred
liable alike to Mr.. Brennan and the
eothers in the cast. The play was re-
peated to small audience, Saturday
evening, both performances netting
about 5000 for the High School ath-
letic fund.

THE FIGHT OF THE

In former days the rail roads fought their battles be- fore legislatures, and their agents wrote out passes that filled many trainloads. To- day the railroads are making a vigorous fight, but it is to convince the public to their way of thinking. They are spending fortunes in getting their side of the case printed, and into the hands of the American people. Cards are all down on the table at last, and it is to the public that the former autocratS now ap- peal for "a square deal"

COTTON STANDARDS
 PROMULGATED

The official cotton stan- dard of the United States promulgated December Is by the Secretary of Agriculture in accordance with the proVi- sions of the cotton-futureS act. The new standard re- places the old official grades heretofore issued by the de- partment and must be used by the exchanges dealing in cotton futures after February IS. The standard covers the nine grades of cotton-mid- ding fair, strict good mid ding, good middling, strict middling, middling, strict low middling, low middling, strict good ordinary, and good or dinary. Copies of the stan dard will be prepared as ra- pidly as possible for sale at cost.
 In filling orders for copies of these standards the depart ment must, of necessity, take into consideration the extent to which the applicants busi- ness is affected by the opera tion of the United States cot ton-futures act, and prefer ence will necessarily be given to members of the future eX- changes and to operators ir the larger spot markets which may be bona fide spot mar kets for the purposes of the futures act. The law provides that the secretary shall deSig- nate five or more such mar. kets, whose prevailing prices shall determine the differ ences between the values o. the several grades in the set clement of future contracts The department therefore in vites all parties who desire copies of these standards t communicate with the chic of the office of markets.
