I.ncs! rains throughout Texas, say
Hubbard, Price A Co. in tlieir circular,
have broken the drought which threat
ened scrlouB Injury to tbe ootton ornp
and oreated the belief In the trade
that the crop In that State waB now
out of danger. Doubtless the situa
tion hns been greatly Improved, but
the ootton crop Ib not made on Aug. 10,
nnd tins many weeks yet of weather
conditions to encounter. Under the
Influence of this rainfall and the iin
prnvcinent in the reports from the
Mississippi valley,- the market has
rapidly declined, touching (lie lowest I
quntnllons made on this crop for nu-
tunm delivery.
The bureau report published yester
day giving Ihe average nnnditinn on
Aug. I, as 80.4 per cent, is the lowest
August report published since 1879,
but the statement by the department
that Hie crops bad improved since the
report wns combined had the effect of
bringing free selling orders from those
who expect the present distrust In
business and flnancln! circles to cause
trouble In moving the crop to market.
As the markets nre without specula
tive support and tbe demand from the
New England spinner is lacking, the
pessimistic feeling is in full control
and a further decline Is confidently
looked forward to n« almost certain.
Undoubtedly the South has not yet
felt the panio as severely ns have the
manufacturing centers of the North,
or the farming communities of the
West, where It is almost Impossible to
market the Incoming wheat because of
the demoralization of 'eredlt. This
factor must be given duo weight in
considering the prospect for the ready
negotiation of tbe ootton orop, but at
the moment the decline has carried
this market below a parity with Liver
pool, and the stock of ootton here may
be expected to move to the other side
before the now -rop can be handled,
because It Is nearer to the foreign
markets, and the exchange Is readily
negotiable.
Unless Congress should quickly re
peal the purchasing clause of tile
Sherman law and so restore confidence,
It Is difficult to see how the South can
fall to feel the disastrous effect of the
loss of confidence this measure has
brought to the oountry. The South
ern banks nre probably better supplied
with cash than the banks in nny other
section, but when tbe supply of cash Is
paid out the situation will be similar
to that In the West, where It is now
reported to be impossible to move
wbent on the seourlty afforded by the
bill of lading attached to the draft.
We treat of the tlnaiicial situation nt
length because the foreign demand for
cotton la likely to be better Mian for
several years, as trade In Europe and
the distant Enst is better than for
yenrs, and under ordinary circum
stances we should witness an active
demand for cotton nt good prices.
At the moment, nil other factors nre
overshadowed by the feeling of dis
trust which pervades all sections, and
the only hope of its net reaching tbe
South and the cottfln planter is that
Congress will act by repealing tile
Sherman law before tlie crop mores
freely to market. Unless such notion
Is taken the receipts will probably be
light nnd prices low through the sheer
inability to scoure the necessary
money to move tile crop.

Good teeth and;* sweet breath are
wlthlh the reaoh of almost every one.
The services of a good dentist will in
sure tbe former against snob imperfec
tions as shall be positively unsightly
or taint the breath. The advice of
your dentist should be sought as to
the proper tooth powder to use, as
many of the compounds on the
market contain harmlful acids
and gritty substances: An ex-
exchange says there is no surer way
to destroy the teeth than by the wnut
of brushing or rinsing after eating
fruit. In California, where fruit of all
kinds is so cheap for ten months in
the year as to be within the reaoh of
almost the poorest, beautiful teeth are
rarely found, while it is a very com
mon thing to see even yiung women
with false teeth. Exceed In tbe use of
fruit sometimes produces undue acid
ity of the stomach, which also reacts
on the teeth.
Six ounces of rose water, mixed
with two drams of olilurate of potash,
is an excellent purifier of the breath,
i Rinse the mouth after eaoh meal. For
aoidlty of the stomach, which gives
bad breath, use a solution ot n tea-
poonful of baking soda and half as
much salt in a glass of water. Drink
a little of this and rinse tbe mouth
well.
A box of the very finest powdered
charcoal, which can be obtained at a
drug store, should be always at hand.
Give the teeth an occoslonal brushing
with It, or rob a little between the in
terstices of the teeth at night, brush-
inglt out in the morning.

The redoubtable Fierce Lockett—
everybody in Albany knows Pierce,
the colored Mayor, Marshal and Sheriff
of Southslde—had a regular family
and neighborhood dressing down last
Monday night. Southslde is tbiokly
settled with darkies, every one of
whom feels a respeot for Fierce that
only a “born boss” can inspire.
Recently some eliuroh affairs of very
great import have agitated the South-
side community, and quite a good deal
of unpleasantness has been Hie result.
Fierce has objected to all this, but
small attention was paid to his com
mands, strange to say, and Monday
night the had reached that point where
forbearance ceased to be a virtue.
So in he went to olean out the gang.
First one and tben another, this man
and that woman were dressed down
in fine style, until nineteen had tasted
again of the sweets they knew while
youthful chastisements were still in
vogue. Among the number were his
own w.fe and stepchildren, who were
rated among the malcontents.
Quiet -ow rejgns in Southslde, and
a city case has been made against
Fierce for disturbing tbe peace.
