Cotton Compress,
MANUFACTURED ONLY BY
THE PUSEY&JONES COMPANY
VJilraia^ton, ^Delaware*
Having, after long and careful study and great
expense, succeeded in perfecting the above re-
ferred to machine, we offer it now to the public as
the most powerful, safe and expeditious compress
in use.
Wholly of metal, reducing its risk of destruction
much in case of flr#, and working with scarcely any
friction, it6 movements ar* smooth and noiseless;
and as tne whole power is directly applied to the
bale without intervention of levars. coir gearing or
other devices common to other forms of com-
presses. irs work is performed at less cost of fuel
per bale than any press in use.
"When used in combination with Riesel's Bale
Ejector, which discharges the pressed bale as soon
as the press opens, thereby relieving the men from
that lat>or. 100 bales per hour can be compressed
and tied.
The capacity of the press is 2000 tons, and this is
applied to each bale pressed.
These presses are built in the very best manner,
and with all the care that skill and experience can
command, and are guaranteed in all their details.

One of the Best Physicians
I have be^n tisfng Swift's Specific in my practice
for quite a lon^ time, and I regard it the best com-
bination as a bloo<« purifier au l tonic. It is entirely
Vegetable, beiugcomposed of tne extracts of roots
whicb grow in this section of Georgia. I am fami-
|jar with its history from the time the formula was
obtained from the Indians. It is a certaiu and safe
femedy for all kinds of blood poison and skin
{■tumor, and in the hundreds of cases in which I
•are used it and seen it used, there has never been
«failure to cure. I have cured blood taint in
TIio Third Generation
with lt, after I had most signally failed by the most
Approved methods or treatment with mercury and
Iodide of potassivm These cases have been cured
bver fiftet n years asro, and have never had any re-
turn of the disease in themselves or in their
Children. FRED A. TOOMER, M. D„

y,lIt is the best gelling r*»?nody in my store, and

iold remedy with many of « ?ir best citizens."

General Market Quiet—Spot Cotton
Steady-vPutures Dull.
News Office, November 2^-Business in the
general market to-day has been quiet, and there is
but little of interest to note. Wholesale grocers
have revised quotatious for Rio coffee, materially
advancing them. Sugar is steady at quotations,
and there has been no new arrivals. Country pro-
duce of all kinds shows no change in price. There
has been but little done in grain, and but few sales
on which to base quotations. No change wa3 made
in any other article on the general list.
Thefoilowing are the noon quotations for futures
at the New York Coffee Exchange,as bulletined at
the Galveston Cotton Exchange to-day. Basis, No.

Cotton on the spot to-day ruled generally quiet
but steady, though New Orleans reduced middling
and good middling l-16c, closing easy at the reduc-
tion. Norfolk advanced prices l-16c, closing steady.
No change was made in any of the other spot mar-
kets. Futures at Liverpool opened flat and par-
tially 1®2 points higher on some of the months,
and closed unsettled, with April-May 2 points
higher than at the close yesterday evening. Fu-
tures at New York opened dull, at a decline of 1@2
points on all early months, .were quiet on second
call, barely steady on third call, and closed barely
steady and 1<&2 points lower on a few of tne
months. Futures at New Orleans opened steady,
at an advanca of 1©2 points, ruled quiet and dull,
and closed dull but steady and 2®4 points lower
than yesterday. Futures in Galveston opened
steady and partly 1@3 points higher, were quiet
but steady on the second call, barely steady on the
third call, and closed dull and 1<&5 points lower
than the closing prices of yesterday.

During the week just passed, with very fair re-
ceipts at the ports, the spot market was character-
ized by a reduction of quotations in several of the
markets. New York reduced all grades during tne
week 1-16c, and had not recovered the decline at
the close this evening. The net receipts at the
ports this week show a decrease, as compared with
those of last year, of 13,150 bales, which reduces the
total excess of the season to 45,656 bales. New Or-
leans has received thus far 105,013 bales in excess of
last year's receipts, and Galveston's receipts show
a further deficit of 303 bales. The changes in spot
quotations for the week may be summed up about
as follows: Liverpool, l-16d higher on ordinary and
good ordinary uplands; New Orleans, l-16@V£c
higher; New York, l-16c lower on all grades: Sa-
vannah, l-16c higher; Charleston, l-l(i@^c lower:
Wilmington, l-16c lower; Baltimore, l-16@^c
lower; Augusta, l-16®^6c lower. The future mar-
ket has been steady pretty much the entire week,
and quotations have not fluctuated as much as
usual, the greatest change, as compared with last
Friday's figures, being a reduction of 11 points at
New Orleans for November delivery.
Stocks at the ports have been increasing, with
the exception of one day, during the entire wees,
and show an excess of 43,786 bales over those of
last Friday, and of 188,008 bales over those of last
year.
The sales at Liverpool were again heavy this
week, reaching a total of 63,000 bales. 1000 in exceSs
of those of last year, while the imports showed a
falling off of 45,000 bales. The stork has decreased
29,000 bales, and the amount afloat 68.000 bales.
The following were the quotations for Texas, Or-
leans and uplands at Liverpool yesterday:
To-day the market closed dull and 1@5 points
lower. Compared with last Friday, prices show a
decline of 9 points on January, 8 on February, and
l(gi5 points on the other months.

transactions each day of the week, together w ith

A Peep at th© Attractions of W« ^
Cole's Blonster Shows—A Manager
Who Nevor Promises What he Dom
not Fulfill.
W. W. Cole is one of the richest circus Man-
agers in the world—not only this, he is the
most enterprising and what is better, he never
puts anything 00 the walls or in his newspaper
advertisements that he hasn't ^ot, and never
makes any promises to the public that he does
not fulfill to the very letter. This is the secret
of his success, and this has made his name
familiar and respected throughout the country
and the Australian He began not a very Ion*
time ago in a small way, but by adding to and
enlarging his show each season, putting
in novelty after novelty, and always
aiming carefully to increase the facilities
for the comfort and convenience of his patrons
he has at last brought his circus to its present
vast dimensions, and is now regarded as second
to none on the continent. The. performances
are given in three rings—that is, two rings and
an elevated stage in th*? center. Of this ele-
vated stage Mr. Cole is the originator. It is an
entirely new idea in the circus business and af-
fords an opportunity to present many attrac-
tive features that could not be placed on the
sawdust. In the rings and on the stage Mr.
Strickland has taken his sheep, a1x>ut 40U0
head, on shares. Mr. Cassins Carter sold his
brother's flock of sheep, ou North Concho, to
Mr. C. B. Metcalfe, last Tuesday. There were
1100, and the price paid was $3200.
Mr. Leon Halfin sold 1200 ewes to Mr. J.
Ewes, of Concho county, last week. Price, $3
per head. _
ths Popolo Romano says that a little Inci-
ter match-seller has been discovered to possess
a most lovely tenor voice and great intelli-
gence, aud that he will, no dotibt, be taken
from his present life of mendicancy to be edu-
cated as a singer. _
Obstrcctioxs of kidneys and other organs prove
fatal if not removed by Hop Bitters.
Cole presents a large array of the very best
performers. The press everywhere speak of
the exhibition as the completestand very finest
ever given in the United States. The costumes
are bright, the trappings of the horses gorgeous,
and the paraphernalia of the ring,all the neces-
saries thoroughly adjusted, and act succeeds
act with a swiftness that keeps the eyes of tba
spectator swimming and his head in a constant
twirl. Indeed, the magnificence of the street
parade is only a faint suggestion of
the splendor and perfection of the
scenes under the canvas. Often there are five
different acts going on at once, all meritorious
and each worthy individual attention. But
the show is so extensive, and the number of
performers so great, that the acts must be
massed in this manner to finish the perform-
ance in two and one-half hours. Everybody
leaves the tent bewildered with the variety of
things theyjiave seen, and astonished at their
extraordinary character. It would be impos-
sible in an" ordinary newspaper report to go
into detail concerning the attractions. Only a
few of them can be mentioned, and to these
few justice can not be done. • First, foremost
and most extraordinary of all, on account of
his immensity, comes Samson, the heaviest;
and biggest elephant in the world. He weighs
fully 14,000 pounds, stands over twelve feet
high, and looks like a three-story building;
poised on four posts. He was captured in Asia,
and brought over here at an extraordinarxcost.
lt is said lis can carry 100 people on his b3ck at
a time, and the children find it a great treat
to be allowed to ride in the howdah lie carries.
Samson is a great card, and nobody should
miss seeing^ his mastodouic majesty. James
Robinson, the ^ champion bareback ' rider, is
known the world over, and his merit and claim
to first place as a horseman remains unchal-
lenged to-day. although he has now been thir-
ty-six years in the ring. He was the first bare-
back rider to appear in a circus ring, and has
remained the best since his earliest years. He
originated all the feats in riding now attempt-
ed by other equestrians. At present he looks
as youug as a man of twenty five, and rides
with as much ease, grace and dash as at the out-
set of his career. No more daring horseman
is to be found in the profession. Frank Gard-
ner, in addition to being an excellent jockey
rider, is acknowledged to be the champion
leaper of the world. He turns single and
double somersaults over long lines of elephants
and camels as easily as if he were merely
walking down stairs. The Bedouin Arabs,
twelve in number, were brought to this
country last spring by Mr. Cole, gave an ex-
traordinary exhibition, tumbling over bayo-
neted muskets, doing some excellent-acrobatic
work, and forming massive groups of four _
five men high, that are a* beautiful as they i
astonishing. Another wonderful feature is the
seven long-haired sisters, one of whom has hair
seven and one-half feet long, while the others
vary in length from five to six feet and hangs
in masses four inches thick. If their hair was
laid end to end it would reach 1«X) miles. On
the elevated theater stago, the funniest roller-
skating act ever presented is to be seen, the
wonderful family of bicyclists appear, and
there are other attractions. The bicycle
riding in mid-air on a frail wire, the ceiling
walking of Melle Aimee, "the Human Fly,'
the trapeze performances, the tumbling and
leaping, the trained elephants and educated
stallions and dozens of other features go to
make up a show that surpasses in extent and
merit anything the people of this or any other
section have ever seen. Mr. Cole is a particu-
larly conscientious and honest manager, and as
has "been said before, what he promises the
public will get. His bills and advertisements
are a true indication of what he has beneath
his canvas, and in the exhibition tent, as well
as the menagarie department, which is com-
plete. Visitors will find much to delight and
astonish them when the great show makes it ap-
pearance in Galveston, "Wednesday, Novem-
ber 28. _

recovered himself he fouud the horn still ly-

mesquite bushes hid him from his brothers,
who were working with the herd: and, thoutrh
he could plainly bear them talking, the wind
prevented his "calling for aid being heard.
He could not get the horse to move, and the
pressure was so great that breathing was
difficult. Ono of his brothers, wondering at
his prolonged absence, started to look for him.

his feet. Upon examination it was found that
