The reason that so much care was taken in this selection was be- 1 cause there is only a microscopic dif- ference in the variation of cotton from j grade to grade, and while there is a j very small actual advance in price from grade to grade, the aggregate of the cotton crop last year was $850,000,1100, so that a very small difference in the grad- i 9 ' , =©| ARMY AND NAVY a Army Orders.

FOR BOY IMMIGRATION. : New Zealand Parliament* Discusses Getting Labor From England. 1 f'AviuuiiirttuianeA nf Tha Vt ue i'urrixu v"i ivdjjwiiw u«.i vi * \VKLL.INGTOX, X. Z., July 14, li»10. i A discussion has taken place in parliament regarding boy immigration from Krigland. The system was opposed by j the labor members, who argued that the government had no right to take action which was favorable to employers and detrimental to the workers. The premier 1 replied, stating that there was a scarcity of boy labor, botti for farming an4 for government departments. ] Thomas Mackenzie, minister of agriculture, in a vigorous speech, defended the principle. Apart from the New Zealand point of view, he said, they should con- 1 sider its imperial aspect. Instead of allowing Great Britain's best emigrants to go to foreign countries they should unite with the motherland in inducing the sur- ] plus youths to till the empty spaces over seas. Not only would they thus provide labor for the development of the agricultural industry, but they would assist < in holding the empire together. Another important i>oint was that every emigrant to New Zealand meant worth of : trade to Great Britain, whereas, if settled in America, such emigrant represented only worth of trade. 7IXED COTTON S I^^BwbHB^HBm^^i^^H^H^WI^^BI I*.

In Sets of Nine Boxes. The standard grade samples are put up in sets of nine boxes by the department, representing nine grades of white American cotton. But while this serves as a sufficient grading standard, the trade recognizes a grade between each of the nine established by the government and three grades above and three below the government scale. The cotton buyer, on getting his box of standard grade samples, uses it to match the cotton that is brought to him for sale. A startdard box is sold by the department for $35, and with good care will last a year or more before it begins to deteriorate. What the department considers its greatest triumph is in fixing the original standard samples so that they would not deteriorate or change color." There has never been a permanent cotton standard sample in the history of the world, the reason being that it has never been possible to keep the standards from deteriorating. fn the present instance, after the standard grades had been selected with the greatest care by the committee of experts, they were put in big glass tubes, the air exhausted and the tubes sealed just like an incandescent light globe. In fact the actual work was done at one of the big electric globe plants. Adopted by Exchange. The standards have been officially adopted by the Memphis Cotton Ex- , PUPILS ARE REWARDED AT ST.

It was hoped to have the big European countries represented on the standard committee, because a third of the American crop is sold abroad and it is very desirable to have foreigners adopt the same standards as America. The standard samples have been largely approved by the English buyers who have seen thefn, but they have not yet been officially presented to any of the foreign exchanges.

Latter's Attorney Holds That Matter Is Inconsequential in View of Verdict in Recent Trial. Richard H. Smith has the distinction of having married two women, without the formality c? a divorce, and yet without violating law. At a trial last month he was acquitted of a charge of bigamy because the government could not prove that he had heard from his tirst wife within five years of the second ceremony. Assistant United States Attorney Turner being unwilling to let Smith go at thai time, prefered a charge of perjury against him and he was committed to await action by the grand jury. The perjury charge grew out of the statement on the marriage license record for the second venture that Smith had never before been married. Attorney M. E. O'Brien yesterday prevailed on United States Attorney Wilson to drop the perjury charge when it was shown that the matter of a previous marriage had become inconsequential by reason of the finding of the jury that Smith was justified in thinking his first wife dead. Smith's detention in jail arose from his love of the name Merson. In 18513 he married Mary Merson and after nine years a separation took place. Not hearing from her for five years he met her first cousin, also named Merson, and fell in love with her. On his second honeymoon his first wife heard of the remarriage and complained to the police.

Withdrawal of Member of House oi Hohenlohe-Langenburg Causes Surprise. i Foreign Correspondence of The Stnr. BERLIN July 14, 1910. The Hereditary Prince of HohenloheLangenburg has resigned his office as second vice-president of the reiehstag. The news has caused consternation in political circles here. The prince, who is an independent member of the imperial or free conservative party for Gotha, was elected vice president last year during the struggle over financial "reform." He accepted oflice, believing that by so doing he was giving a unity of purpose to the presiJ ..a * a tho cnlldifloa. uency anu i:uulxluuimg ».*_» luv uv.*v»x.*v» tion of the bloc. Owins, however, to recent political events, especially recent byelections in which the bloc oppears to be seriously imperiled by the action of the national liberals, the prince believes his position untenable, and that the prospect of holding together the bloc no longer exists. Partly Due to Encyclical. Apart from this purely political consideration the prince has been compelled to take his present step by the contents and the effects of the recent Borromeo encyclical, which make it impossible for him to hold the position of vice president if he is also to abide by the principles which have hitherto inspired his public life. This probably means that the prince declines to strengthen by his association the clerical conservative union, which still holds together, despite the support of the encyclical by the clericals. There is little doubt that the prince's resignation will have far-reaching consequences, as it is a serious blow at the of the existiner maioritv in the re'ichstag. Prince Hohenlohe married a daughter of the late Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (Duke of Ednburgh), and is, therefore, by marriage, a cousin of King George of England. He acted as regent of the duchy from 1JKK) to 1005. On account of recent dismissals of high functionaries and voluntary resignations of others, it appears that a serious crisis in the government is impending. BUTCHERS MAKE PLANS TO ELIMINATE PACKERS Many Undertake to Establish Cooperative Abattoir, Rendering Plants and Tanneries.

Packlrd, rector of Christ Episcopal Church, the ceremony taking place in the office of the clerk of the circuit court in the courthouse. The young people reached Rockville about half-past 8 o'clock, coming straight from their Virginia homes. They happened to find the clerk of the court at work in his office, so the license was obtained without delay. Dr. Packard was telephoned for and the ceremony was performed in time to permit the young people to catch the 9« o'clock train back to Washington.
