The preliminary report or the Cen sus Bureau on cotton consumption in the United La tea for the year ending August 31st. 1404. recently Issued, showed that during the- period cor-ert-d the mills o( t&a South consum ed t.254.414 bales, against t.410,944 bale In 1104-97, or a fallln off of only 164,480 bale ((.4 per cent), nhcrea In the same Interval Nortii ern establishments exhibited a decline of t5S.il balea (I.I per cent.). This Census Bureau report, o rar as It applies to Southern consumption, is in approximate agreement with the re- cult disclosed in our annual cotton ! crop report issued September 4th, and hows, a President Flnley of the ' vAHtkAM. II. 1 M.m-.n ...i M that . the cotton mill industry of the South : suffered leaa during the period of gen . erai business depression than the mills In other sections of .the country, and this notwithstanding; the falling off in the trade for China, upon which many Southern mills place large' de pendence. With good reason, Mr. Flnley looks upon the' report as lurn .; lilting additional evidence of the su perior advantages of the South as the ' location for cotton mills. 'The strides the South has taken in cotton manufacture In recent years and the comparatively moderate de - cllne in the volume of consumption ; last season is certainly a cause for sat isfaction and gratification. From an 'average weekly consumption of less than ,008 bales a week thirty years ago in 1877-78 there was a Steady and quite rapid advance, until In the ' early part of 1987-08 it reached near ly 60,006 bales, and averaged for tho season (notwithstanding the general decline l.ln all business in the more recent months) almost 43,000 bales. In the meantime .Northern consump tion vhlxh In U71.H 9B . ' 400 bales, rose to on average slightly in' excess of 10,000 bales in 1106-07. and, according to our figures, wan lightly more than 41.000 bales In 1147-08. Or. dealing In totals rather ; thaa averages. the Pouth consumed 144,000 bales In 1877-78. advaiu-lng to 441,472 bales 10 yesrft later; 1.227.- ; S . bales in 1H97-48, and 2.284.89.' , bale in 1107-08, the aggregate In 1094-07 having been 2.487.088 bales. t , . . i ...t . j , .. .i f tlrcumstances made last season led us Ao remark in our annual rpport that "Southern cotton mills have done rrl- stiver? oetter tnan tnosc at the .ortn, . the' decrease In the volume of con umption having been comparatively ' moderate. it thus happens that, for the first time since cotton-manufacturing became an established Industry f the South, the mills of that section used more raw material than was consumed by Northern establish ments." The advance thus far made, furthermore, can be taken as indlc- ' atlve of the progress yet to be made when warranted by Industrial condi- ' tiona.

Moreover, the members of the cast in this case are not the ordinary eighteen per week chorus cirl tout twenty-two youthful college men whose estimate of the value of their physical beauty Is much higher and positive, - Influenced probably by the opportunity of study nnder an ac tor of Mr. Young's well-known, classical training, there were over two (hundred applicants for positions on the crew from which number -were chosen rloe of the handsomest college ApoUos that tvver graced a gymnasium. t : "j -HUMAN HEARTS."

Playwrights generally lay great stress upon the title of their plays, and it is a well-known fact that the names of some Plays have- materially helped their success. Whether or not It was a superstition the late Charles Hoyt always used the "A" in all of his titles. At the same time "The" seems to be the lucky adjective. The great est successes of the past twelve months have had such titles as "Tha Thief," "The Witching Hour," "The Devil" and for three years past "The Clans man" has broken all records. "The Traitor" is a title that would attract any play-goer to the box-office. No play with auch a title could fail to be intensely dramatic Naturally a play must live up to Its title. The Traitor" does more than this for it Is a play that would attain the heights of success even were it nameless. There is no gainsaying the fact, however, that a teUIng title helps a great play especially in its early days. The spreading of the news of a plays suo cess Is also made easier when the. title U one that sticks In the memory. Tha triumph of "Tha Traitor" was perhaps to te expected, for tha mil lions who have seen "The Claneman" naturally are eager to sea Ita dramatic eeqaeL The permanency of this sac cess is assured toy - tha remarkable power of the play. It requires : no prophet to foresee that "Tha Traitor" will, like "The Cbtnsmaa," become one of the classics of the 'South.

The subject is one close 48.001 to the heart of Mr. Simmons, closely 19.562.M identified as he has been for the past U-Sij'S fw ya". ilh the atkletic life of the Kt'M0 25 University. Hence It was natural that SOO he should speak with grace and lnter--l.m&o ! est. Mr. slmmoas outlined the pur fs poses of an organization which had Its 1i,6u.0iil birth in his brain and which, owing 5&0.4X5.13 t0 hu, pfforts. has had already its In--Bnoo ceptlon at Carolina.

A pin will be worn which will fulfill in nincolleglate life tho place of the cap and sweater in colleire. "The order is founded," aaid Mr. Simmons in conclusion "on merit, on skill, on prowess I may say on honor and its pin should mean the same to the athlete as does the badgo of gold of Phi Beta Kappa to the man who has burned the midnight oil." ' CAPTAIN ALEXANDER TALKS. Oapt. 8. B. Alexander followed, his subject being, "The Old University." He told IntcrcstinRly.pf .the college's earlier history.

"It is a curious fact," aaid Can tain Alexander, "that It was pro vided that the location should not be nearer than five miles to any seat of government or any court of equity. There were no towns then except the county seats, ao they had to take to the woods. New Hope Chapel was selected as the site. It was not long before the New Hope was dropped and the name became Chapel HI1L" On October 12th of the next year the foundation of the Old East Build ing, was laid. That is' the day , now being celebrated.' The University had numerous ups and downs under Presi dent Kerr, Charles W., -Harris, Cald well, Chapman and then "Caldwell again. He served to lfSS'when he died. Governor Bwaln was called to the presidency. . He had had no ex perience as a teacher, although , he had made an excellent Superior Court judge and a most exoellent Governor. Many people thought that he would fall, but his administration" waa a signal success. He was elected In De cember of 1845, when there -wwe only 40 matriculates, despite the age of the college. Governor . Swain took hold firmly and -commenced to add until in 1854. when the apeaker went, there were over 400 matriculates. Captain Alexander narrated a Bom ber of incidents that occurred during his tay there, the burning of the old belfry, the tlf aroused by the political stand of Professor Hedrlck. who came out for Fremont, was run away to Salisbury atd finally went to his form er home In Davidson county and thence -to the North. In January of 14S7 occurred 'the coldest bllxxard of history, causing school to ahnt down for several days, while a wood famine caused much suffering.

A striking fact of this period in the University's his tory was that over-half tha students came from other Ctates, every South era State except MAryland and Dela ware being . well represented. . And nearly all tha Carolina students were from the eastern and central sections. In the west Captain Alexander was the only representative of Mecklenburg; Gaston had none, Stanly none.

To say that Prof. Alexander Gra ham's speech on "Reminiscences" was highly characteristic is to say that It was also highly enjoyable, - It was not the sort ot speech that lends Itself to newspaper reporting. But don't for the world Imagine that it would not grace a , newspaper's columns, could it but be properly transferred to them. There was no scope to the speaker's sphere? It was a rambling subject and he rambled at will, con vulsing his hearers by funny stories. Two more speeches, both able and Interesting, brought the programme to a close at a late hour, Mr. Chase Brenlter spoke on "Intercollegiate Spirit," giving an essentially practiced treatment to an Idealistic and theoreti cal subject Mr. D.
