The monthly crop report, issued .yes terday by the Department of Agricul ture, showed the condition of the cot ton crop on Aug. 25 to be 03.7, as com pared with 71.9 last month, 70.1 last year, 72.7 in 1007, and 77.3 in 1906. The condition in Georgia is reported as 73, compared with 77 for the same date last year, and a ten-year average of 70. The States showing the lowest condition are: Louisiana 48, Oklaho- Texas 69, Ai is 60, Mil. is dppi 61, and Alabama 00. All other States range above 70. The effect of the Government report upon the New York Cotton exchange is thus described in yesterday’s dis patches The Government, cotton crop condi tion issued to-day proved the lowest on record, but caused only a moderate ad vance, which was not fully sustained, the market closing steady at. a net gain of only 3 to 0 points. The market opened steady at an advance of 6 to 9 points, on better cables than expected, and showed little change during the morning, when trading was quiet. Just before the Government report was is sued January contracts were selling around 12.47, and the best price reached later was 12. GO, a bulge of about, 13 points, and a net advance of 20 points from the closing figures of last •light. Possibly the approach of the three-day adjournment over Labor li)uy restricted bull speculation to jorne extent; at any rate, the demand proved insufficient to absorb realizing and selling by local bears, and during the late trading prices gradually eased off to within 2 or 3 points of last night’s finals, with January closing at 12.45 bid, or only 5 points net higher. The lowest September bureau report previously on record was in L902, when the condition was only 04 per cent. Considering the reduction in acreage, .Vi compared with last year, the figures ,'n,; H v be made the basis of very bullish mathematical conclusions regarding the probable size of the crop, and after midday many bullish cables wore re ceived from abroad regarding the pros pect for future supplies.” Commenting upon the Government report Hubbard Bros., of New York, say— ‘•Perhaps the lowest bureau roport on record, 63.7, was less of a surprise \i> the cotton trade than was the esti mate of Mr. Hester that consumption oil American cotton last season was 13,116,000 bales. A low condition re port was to he expected, from the pub lic and private accounts of the wretch ed condition of the crop west of the Mississippi, and the trade was also prepared for the heavy selling which had been predicted for the past fort- night, when the report was made pub lic, Kvery one bad been told that this would ho the last- bullish report, and tthat the youth was only waiting to sell aoPfon at this time. Very few, how ever, were aware of the large con sumption of last season, when the Lan- casnire mills were closed, and to the thoughtful the prospect of a demand for such an amount of cotton this sea son from this crop is staggering. Nev ertheless the local sentiment to-night is bearish, on the belief that the South will’i.russ their crop for sale at present prices, and that the spinner For that pressure, regur timute requirements.’’ will wait ess of his ul COMMISSIONER HUDSON DIS CUSSES RUMOR. Concerning the oft repeated rumor that Hon. T. G. Hudson will run for Congress in the Third district next year, and that he will not offer for re- election as Commissioner of Agricul ture, Mr. Hudson makes the following itatement in to-day’s Constitution, viz: Referring to the recent reports villi reference to his future political plans. Commissioner Hudson said: The truth of the matter is, 1 have not vet reached a decision as to wheth er 1 shall run tor Congress from the Third district, or offer again for Com missioner of Agriculture. There is plen ty of time yet to determine the ques tion, and 1 shall endeavor to reach a conclusion as speedily as possible. When 1 do, 1 shall make prompt an nouncement id - it, that there may be no doubt on the subject. But for the pres ent the question is absolutely undeter mined.” Mr. Hudson has given the State a splendid administration as Commission er of Agriculture, and has brought his department up to a high state of effi ciency. Since he went into office many new duties have been added to his de partment, not the least important of which is the enforcement of the provis ions of the Pure Food and Drug Act, !>ut this work has been done so thor oughly and intelligently, and with so little friction, as to evoke general com mendation. If Mr. Hudson should conclude to run for Congress the Third district would have an able Representative at Wash ington, but Georgia would at the same time lose a mighty good Commissioner of Agriculture. —Anybody can hit a cripple, and kick a poor man’s dog.

'The negro was advancing on him with a knife whim the killing occurred, and Mr. Swygert was entirely justifiable in the deed. Mr. Warren R.

Benjamin David Porter, of Brunswick, Md., which happy event took place Tuesday evening at 8:30 o’clock at the Baptist church, Rev. B. D. Gray, of Atlanta, and Rev. C. E. Ilitt performing the ceremony. The church was prettily decorated with quantities of ferns, foliage plants, bamboo and palms, artistically ar ranged about the altar, the same be ing beaut.itully lighted with candles. The bride entered with her brother. Mr. J. VV. Arnall, and was met at the altar by the groom and his best man, Mr. Hill P. Kedwine, Mr. Nixon Ar nall being the groomsman. The brides maids were Misses Sudie Arnall and Esther Smith. The ceremony was per formed under a beautiful white wed ding bell. At the approach of the bri dal party Mrs. Z. Greene, of Newnan, sweetly sang "One Heart Divine.” Miss Elsie Ragan, of Hawkinsville, played the wedding maren. fhe ush ers were Mr. J. Claude Arnall and Mr. Luther E. Arnall. The bride was hand somely gowned in pretty white duchess satin, made princasse, with yoke and sleeves of embroidered net, which were trimmed with baby Irish lace. The belt was fastened with satin ro settes, and the veil gracefully caught with a bow of orange blossoms, while she carried a shower bouquet and a white prayer hook. Misses Sudie Ar nall and Esther Smith were both charming in white lingerie dresses, made princesse, carrying white roses tied with tulle bows. The bride and groom left at 9 :42 o’clock for Savan nah, where they will take a steamer to-day for New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and from there to Bruns wick, Md., where they will make their future home. The bride’s going away gown was a coat suit of dark blue cloth, with black trimming and hat and gloves to match. Miss Arnall is the youngest daughter of Mrs. J. M. Arnall and a young lady of refinement, culture, and all the charms that go to make an ideal wife and companion. She is a graduate of Brenau College, both in the literary and oratory depart ments. Two t ears later she was elected a member of the faculty, where she was highly esteemed by both teachers — Any fool can destroy a tree, hut it takes Mother Nature a century or more to make one. The famous temple of Diana at Ephesus, costing untold llions and one of the wonders of the world, was set on fire by a fool that wanted to get his name in the pa pers.” Those that fell trees seldom plant them. During a man’s life only saplings can be grown to take the place of the centuries old trees that have been destroyed. It took more than 3,- 000 years to make some of the trees in the Western woods and to build up the noble primeval forests, ‘ which the greedy sawmill men ruined in a few years. Nature preserves the trees for centuries, saving them from drought, disease, avalanches and a thousand straining, leveling tempests and floods, hut she cannot save them from the fools. If we could kill off all the fools we might save the trees, but the popu lation would be dreadfully reduced. Uncle Sam has undertaken the job of saving our remaining forests from the fools and the flauds.
