THE CHARLOTTE NEWS, AUGUST 27, 1908. TODAY'S ..MARKETS COTTON i s Bache & Co's Daily Cotton Letter. Furnished by the Charlotte Cotton Ex change and Board of Trade. Xew York. Aug. 27. Liverpool this morning displayed considerable un locked for strength, due, so it is saind, as much to manipulation from this side as anything else, although some shore covering was induced by less favor able crop accounts, uur response was again of 5 to 7 points over Saturday's which was not so good as due. Liver pool improved further and still the tendency was halting. Some short covering and commission house Duy ing was apparent, but the demand was not sufficient to absorb offerings. The South has been a goo d buyer and is still sending poor crop accounts but the number of bearish reports have been greatly increased today. Receipts are heavy. There is not yet much confidence felt in the perma nancy of any advances made and the short side is still the popular side, locally at least and all strong spots are made targets for bear selling.

The weather man promises fair weather tomorrow and a cool wave to night. The weather conditions are as follows : East of the Mississippi low pressure prevails, with the center of barometric depression over the lower Lake region. Showers have been quite general over this part of the country. West of the Mississippi, an area of high pressure whose crest is over Kansas this morn ing, has caused fair cooler weather, the temperatures being about 10 degrees below normal over the country between the Mississippi and the Rocky Moun tains. In this vicinity showers tonight will be followed by fair weather Tues day. It will be somewhat cooler tonight. LIGHTNING LOVED THIS MARK. Bolt Has Struck Three Times in the Same Place. Middletown, N. Y., Aug. 27. Three times within the past few weeks has the lightning descended and destroyed property on the farm occupied by John Silvernail at North Franklin, Delaware county; and Mr. Silvernail and his neighbors are wondering when the next bolt will strike. In July one of Mr.' Silvernail's cows was killed in the field by lightning. Two weeks later the barn was structc and burned with its contents, involv ing a loss of $2,400. After the barn was destroyed a large quantity of hay was cut and stacked almost on tne S1te of the burned barn, and" now. this has been consumed by fire strated by ugntmng. Rev. W. P. McCorkle. D. D., oi Savannah, Ga., preached yesterday In the First Preshvt.erian church in the absence of the pastor, Rev. J. R. How- erion. There will be a reunion of the Mar- snail familv at the old James Mar shall place Friday, Aug. 31st. A-pic-nic dinner will be served on the lawn. All friends and relatives of the Mar- Snall family are invited to attend. Jiy dropping a penny in the slot the "ght weight may be pointed out. cpeciai Tne iNews. W11a(iKm A AP m -oucouuiu, Aug. zi. mere is a report in circulation, and has just ifdcnea tne correspondent of The News, that Wadesboro will in the near future be asked to vote on a ?100,000 bond issue., for the purpose of building a steam road from Thomas ville to Wadesboro, thence to xaign .foint. This hasn't been talked yet, and might bear investigation, though the people of Anson are at the present deeply interested in the progress of the South Bound. It would be a re lief to the people of the county to know definitely whether the South Bound is a speculative venture or project in good faith. The people did all they were asked to do in the way of voting appro priations and so far as we know have been exceedingly generous in contributing a right of way for this contemplated line. The route extends through a sec tion of country second to none in North Carolina." The forests of hard wood and pine are almost untouched. The water powers that would speed ily be converted into mercantile use fulness, would open a vast field for manufactories of various kinds. The soil is naturally susceptible of great improvement, with better railroad facilities as it is now, the section that would be made accessible to the outside world, is well stocked with the better class of agriculturists, who live at home, attend to their own affairs, and are putting aside of their earnings something each year. The appropriations made to this I-rospective road is quite a large bonus for its construction, something over ?300,000. Should this go under Anson will probably build one of her ( wn, from this point to Norwood and there tapping the Southern I DOG DAYS ARE O'ER. Official Declaration by Chief Irwin Will the Rain be Shut Off Too? By official declaration of Chief of Police Irwin, dog days are over today August 27, and hereafted people may rest from the many bothersome superstitions that are connected with the 40 days in summer time. Somebody who was standing by the Chief ventured that he was in error about the close of dog days, and that Sunday was the end of them, but the Chief said his information came from the colored servants at home, and that they always kept the closest track of such things therefore the bystander was in error. "The dates are these" said the Chief speaking as one who had authority "Dog days begin July 11 and end August 27" "Figure out for yourself." The Chief has not prepared an offi cial announcement about the forty days of wet weather that the country has been afflicted with. He is not wil ling to make oracular statements about the fickle weather, but he has ventured the hope that the rains will quit after today. There are many people everywhere who will devoutly second the hope expressed by the Chief that the watery downpour is now getting ready to let up until next summer or some other future time. Mr. King himself, president of the college, evidently does not believe Dr. Anderson's report, for he. told me im mediately after the report was issued that if he had to buy milkN from any one he would rather buy it from my dairy than any other. There was one statement in Dr. Anderson's original report so palpably false that the Eliz abeth College people cut it out alto gether and did not publish it for rea sons best known to themselves. The college did not get altogether, during the whole time they were buying milk from the 19th of April until May 31st more than about 12 gallons of sweet milk they got about two gallons oi sour milk daily. This was clabber milk, nothing but sour clabber robbed of its cream and churned up. We usu ally sold it for cooking and no doubt it was used as such at the college, because it was not recommended for the table, nor would it be acceptable to the boarders. The college had its own cows all the time and have been getting their chief supply from them. I have never . seen a word from Dr. Charles A. Misenheimer, the col lege physician, who was on the ground and constantly in attendance during all the sickness. He, above all others, had the best opportunity of finding the truth, certainly better than this wise Dr. Faison, who during all this trouble was sick in bed at home. Dr. Misen heimer certainly could not place this trouble at my door, because he drank milk from my dairy every day and has done so all year. Dr. Faison himself drank the milk all the spring and no doubt would be now, but for the fact that I was the only dairyman around Charlotte who has antagonized him in his wild, fanatical, impractical measures. For 25 years I have been devoting my whole time and energies to give the citizens of Charlotte the best dairy service in the State and I believe that they have it today, and on two occa sions during this period I closed my dairy on account of the health of the cows. This was done at my own voli tion. For years Wilmington, Colum: bia and Salisbury have been calling on me to help them out in their dairy supplies. There is not another dairy in North or South Carolina, with the exception of Vanderbilt's that is half as well equipped for tne business as the one at Spring Dale. For the past 25 years there has not been a year but there has been a marked improve ment in my dairy and I can't imagin anything more uncharitable tnan to place this cause of the typhoid fever at Elizabeth College at the door of Spring Dale Dairy. Perhaps Dr. Faison would like to have the credit for bet tering health conditions in Charlotte. It is possible that that was the reason he was so wild in his statements, for he is more positive than Dr. Anderson himself, more positive than either the president or the college physician. The medical fraternity seems, to. be. at sea as to the causes of typhoid fever. In general they seem to know very lit tle about its cause. M'D.

Elizabeth College will open this year on September 18, for the term of 1906-7. Dr. C. B. Kink, president of this well known institution said that he expected a good attendance, with many new pupils from this and other States, as the college agents have been busy all summer canvassing the Southern States for pupils, and their efforts promise to .be liberally re warded. The entire faculty has been arranged and will be the same as last year, with ohe or two exceptions, and the courses and various departments promise to be stronger and more beneficial and prac tical than ever before. Tne college has had a remarkable record in the past and it is the hope of those to whom its Interests are closest that the coming school year will be better than any of those that are past. FOUND GEMS WORTH $8,000. Lineman Gave Them to Saratoga Police- Returned to Owner. "Ballston, N. Y., Aug. 27. Charles Cameron, a telephone lineman, of this village, attended . the Saratoga races yesterday afternoon and picked up a bag of diamonds valued at $8,000.
