Horse Exhibited by Mr. Geo.1D. ShOfffj
at Greenville Wins Championship
In Its Claas.
Messrs. A. D. Harby and Gea. D.
Shore returned from Greenville Fri?
day night, where they' h&d been for a
week in attendance Upon" the Green?
ville Horse Show. Bdth were delight?
ed with the show, which was corried
out on as large a scale as any?
where in the South outside of Ken?
tucky. They won a number of prizes,
Mr. Shore's horse carrying off the
championship in the .ftve-galted sad?
dle horse class.
Mr. Shore's bay gelding, Tindal
Wave, was exhipited by Mr. William j
Collins of Kentucky. The horse won
two firsts, in the flve-gaited saddle con*
test and secured the championship in
this class, a beautiful trophy cup.
Mr. A. D. Harby exhibited Mr. L. D.
I Jennings'" horse, Black Chieftain, win?
ning second prize in the combination
class.
To win a prize in this show, which
was probably the biggest eVer held in
this State,, was a big; honor and Sum?
ter people should feel especially proud
of the fact that horses belonging to
their fellow townsmen went up against
the pick of horses from Kentucky,
Tennessee, North Carolina and Geor
? f
gla, the show being open to the whole
country, and won.
One of the features of the show was
the exhibition by Willam Collins and
Sons of North Middletown. Ken?
tucky, of Foxy Phil, a saddle horse
ridden by Mr. William Collins, Jr.,
which carried off every prize in its
class, that for threeTgaited saddle
horses. Another feature which at?
tracted attention was the fact that In
every entry in which (Mr. Collins rode
his horse carried off ?st prize.| There
were a large nunvner e# entries and
many extremely fine horses were plac?
ed on exhibition.

PROMISE OF LITTLE ACTIVITY
DURING ENSUING WEtK.
First Government Report to BO lo?
wed Thursday, June 5th?New
York Market Closes Thursday ami
New Orleans Market on Friday.
New Orleans, May 25.?The coming
week in the cotton market does not
promise much activity. In the first
place the local market will close Fri?
day night, while the New York mar?
ket Will close Thursday night, making
a short week. In the second place
the first government report on the
condition of the new crop will be is?
sued Thursday, June 5, which means
that the average trader will even up
this week rather than increase his
commitments. The holiday* will
tend to intensify this desire to even
up.
As yet the coming condition re?
port "has not caused very much com?
ment and there was a surprising
dearth of private estimates on condi?
tion this week. It can hardly be said
that the trade has yet formed ' any
very definite opinion of what to ex?
pect, save that the bulls seem to look
for figures under the ten-year average
of 79.9 per cent, while the bears look
for something over 80. A year ago
the Percentage of condition was re?
turned at 78.& and two years ago at
87.8. This'year the ten-year average
has been ieelcted as a fairer com?
parison than any, although, of course,
reports an$ estimates during the week
to come may develop entirely new
opinions.
It Is generally considered that this
first report is altogether too early to
be of any,value, especialy in a year
like- this when a part of the crop has
had a late;start. The pending report
will carry the crop dowW to^'today.
While weather conditions this week
will'havd no effect oh the condition
report, they will probably have much
to do wiib^the course1 of prices, espe?
cially if they " are very" good or very
had. Taking the belt as a "Whole, suf?
ficient moistiire for the time being has
fallen, and what is most desired now
Is warm, bright weather that will
bring late planted cotton up, cause
good growth' on yormg cotton and
allow chopping to proceed. It is prob?
able that more pefclpitatlftn unless it
comes in the iorm of light showers,
would he reg?rded as "highly unfavor- j
able and would lead to higher prices, '
while dry and warm weather would
work against the market.

Deafness Gannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf?
ness, and that is by. constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
nflamed condition of the mucous lin?
ing of the Eustaehlnn Tube. When
his tube is inflamed you have a rumb?
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely elosed. Deafness
Is the result, and unless the inflam?
mation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condi?
tion, hearing will be destroyed for?
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
Inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir?
culars, free.
