The minstrel performances given
by the Bohemian Circle last Mon
day evening was a well executed
affair and reflects much credit on
the talent of the young men who
participated in it. A popular
price minstrel always draws a
good house, and soon after the
doors were opened the parquet
was well crowded with those in
terested in music, and especially
music by the Bohemian Circle
stars. In the olio Messrs. Beedie
Smith, Frank Smith, Roy Vance,
and Frank Clemmons distinguish
ed themselves as end men of the
highest order, and their gags were
funny and original. The Big
Four Quartette, Messrs. B. F.
Showalter, Tom Hill, George
Sherwood and Sam Keith, scored
a hit with their songs, and were
repeatedly encored. The tenor
solo by Mr. Frank Smith, and the
mandolin playing , by John Yaunt
were also special features. Beedie
Smith starred all through the per
formance, and his impersonations
were worthy of the professional
stage.
The proceeds of the entertain
ment amounted to eighty dollars
and after paying a few of the
clubs expenses the* remainder will
be put into a gymnasium. The
audience seemed well pleased with
the evenings success and many
pronounced it better than any
traveling minstrel which has ever
played in the city.

which the fair archers aimed their

BICYCLING FOR WOMEN.
Distance
How Tliey may Ride a Long
With Ease.
Almost any woman rider may
undertake an average bicycle tour,
if the men who ride with her will
exercise a little judgment in time
and pace. To begin with, a tour
to be thoroughly enjoyed should
command a slow pace. In riding
rapidly the pictorial effect of the
country traversed is lost entirely.
Leisurely progress is much to be
preferred for many reasons, par
ticularly when women are in the
party. Frequent stops for rest
b next in importance. The
average woman rider objects to
this during the early stages of a
tour, but it is necessary that she
should rest often if she wants to
be in at the finish. Ordinarily, a
rest every six to ten miles is ad
visable. Five to ten minutes’ rest
is sufficient. That will serve to 1
revive the vitality and prevent
stiffening of cords and muscles.
One drawback to touring which
hinders most women riders is the
fear they experience
down hill. They err on the!?
of too much caution and jam
brakes down so hard that
machines simply creep down rS
nary inclines. There is a
ence between keeping the machil
under control and creeping, t?
latter serves to make the boys.
happy and retard the progress 2
much. Almost any woman
overcome the timidity i ncidtJ ^
to descending hills with a Jj^
practice.
In hill climbing women ^
avoid over-exertion if thev v
to do a day s journey. The r,
staut the ascent becomes laborious
they should dismount and tru^
their bicycles up leisurely. j r
such cases spunk or pluck is ^
placed. It is a mistake to ^
haust the lungs and waste strei, ^
In brief, it is quite reasonable f or
women to accompany the men«
bicycle tours if they will nottrv

Report of the Interstate Cotton Grow,*
Association on the Jackson African
Limbless Cotton, that Met in
Atlanta, Ga., December
14, 1897.
We, the undersigned committee, a',
pointed by the Interstate Cotton Grow
ers’ Association, held in Atlanta. Ga.
December 14, 1897, to investigate and
report on the Jackson Limbless Cotton,
beg leave to submit the following report
After a thorough and careful eia»
nation and investigation made of the
cotton in the field, which we visited in
person, and carefully looking into tie
matter, we unhesitatingly pronoance it
the best variety of cotton ever grown in
the south.
From what the committee learned
from a conversation with Mr. Jackson
it seems that the cotton, with careful
cultivation, will yield three bales pet
acre easily, and the evidence of such fact
has presented itself to us after said in
vestigation.
The cotton itself is absolutely without
limbs, the bolls maturing on little prongs
two or three inches long, known as -fruit
spur,” with no other limbs, there being
from two to five bolls on each spot
The stalks in the field examined by ns
are from four to ten feet tall, according
to the fertility of the soil, and fruited
from the ground up.
We found on a great many stalks bolls
which contain five and six pods, which
we consider very unusual, the size of
the bolls being very fine average; the
lint and staple being fine and silky, at
average of one to one and a half inches.
It is the opinion of your committee
that no cotton of this variety has fever
been grown in the south before, and is
of superior quality to anything we hare
ever seen grown.
The land upon which the cotton ei-
amined was grown is ordinary red
gravelly land, well manured.
Wm. P. Calhoun, Chairman, Ga.
Richard Cheatham, Committee, Miss.

Jackson farm, the following gentlemen
