It takes more than fire to make
Mr.. w. H. Hoke sell cotton when he
does not want to sell. Mr.. Hoke Is an
inveterate bull on the market. He does
not believe that cotton ever has sold
for anything like what II was worth
or anything like what the producer
Is entitled to receive for 1t In which he
Is right, and he is always believing
that some day the price will he nearer
what II ought to be, in which he may
be right. Anyhow, when some thirty
bales Of cotton he had In J.T. Rod-
dey's warehouse were burned he did
not do o. thing but go down about
Blackstock and buy the same number
of bales he had lost. and ship. them TO
the Peoples Warehouse at YorkvjIIe,
flor storage Cotton had gone UP a 1T
tie after the fire and he had to pay 35
cents DuI ne Qlu not neSllaLc at lndI.
He means to see the thing out and not
sell until he gets ready to SELL 80
While Here and There was stand-
ing in bank the other day, q negro
man came in and cashed a cotton
check for about 5000. The cashier
told the man he could get all his
money II he wanted 1t, of course; but
suggested that itswould be just az
well to take what he actually needed
and leave the balance on deposit. Il
believe i will take 1t all" said the
negro and the cashier Immediately
paid over the money. What are you
going to do with that money!" asked
Here and There?f II am going to
spend some of 1T, and / am going to
keep some of it." "Well why don't
you leave it all In the bank and check
out what you want to pay your debts
and for other purposes9" II just
don't know, just want to take It with
me-" the negro persisted. In reply to
another question the negro said he had
had bank account and It worked all
right; but still he wanted that money.
OF course Here and There gave 1t up,
as O hopeless case.
