"*W HOW TO RAISE COTTON. Bra/dl Will Send Specialist to (Iiis ("(Hind \ to Stlltly Our Methods. Washington, July 11.-The Brazil-1 lan ministry ot agriculture has made arrangements to send to the United States a well known specialist In , cotton growing for the purpose of visiting the Southern States to study American methods ot* cotton growing und obtain a number of American experts to go to Brazil to further the Interests of cotton cultivation in that country, according to a report of United Slates Consul General J. .1. S l?c h ta, of Rio Janeiro. lt is intended to have these Amerl hn experts travel throughout the cotton growing sections of Brazil and act as Inspectors, and especially as Instructors. Very strong representations have been made to the Brazilian depart ment of agriculture hy Influential men of the cotton growing Stales in Northern Brazil, says Mr. Slechta, tending to demonstrate that If proper Instruction for the scientific train ing of cotton growers be given, the cotton production would be greatly Increased. Large areas of Northern Brazil have us their only source of wealth the products of the cotton Heids and with the development which ls sure to come with modern methods of culture, cotton-growing would be come thc third greatest industry in Brazil. The expert is to give partic ular attention in irrigation as used in coll?n growing inasmuch as some of the best cotton-growing lands of Brazil require Irrigation to obtain the best results. In view of Un1 fact that Brnx.il ls probably the only country oilier than the Ihitied States Which possesses lands capable of colton production on a really large scale, this step is of considerable Sig nificance.

Appalachian Exposi- ? tion at Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 12 to Oct. 12, seems to have been thor- j oughly awake to the Importance of I having everything the host, and, in se- i curing music for the Exposition, they were guided by the idea alone of pleas ing the classes as well as the masses, and in securing Weber's Cincinnati Hand and Brooks' Chicago Band they have certainly struck the koynote of i success, and the finest music ever j given at an exposition will bo beard during the holding of the Appalachian Exposit lon. Tho Louisville Courier-Journal, speaking of Weber's Hand, says: "Never have the people of Kentucky known such a band as Weber's, which played at the state Pair. Not only | for excellence and proper musical In- | terpretatlon or for (lu; qualities of I each musician to turn himself Into a sc ag hird, calliope, or a whistle, but for general good humor '^fatlgablo work and cheerfulness v> 1 which they responded to requests for encores did Weber's Band make Itself famous." Brooks at Pittsburg. A quotation from a letter received from the manager of the Pittsburg Ex position verities tho foregoing by the following: "All those who visited tho exposition during the season will remember with many a thrill of pleasure the hours through which they sat entranced lis tening to tho always wonderful music of tho Ellis Brooks Band. On every hand could be heard such exclama tions as, Ts this selection better than the last?' 'Is lt possible anything could bo sweeter?' 'Can it be that those instruments aro but wood or silver and the performers only men?" Lessons for Farmers at Appalachian Show Possibilities of Making Farming Pay Without a "Money Crop."

With this end In view a great agricultural display building will be constructed which will bold exhibits from the mountain portions of the eight States included in tho Southern Appalachian country. Persons not acquainted with the Blue Ridge and connecting ranges of mountains have little conception of the forage, food and fruit potentiali ties of this region. Buried gold, met aphorically speaking, lies walting for the men earnest enough and energetic enough to dig for lt. Art Exhibit Chairman Branson Discusses Plans ol That Department. Lloyd Branson, ebal, ian of the Arl Committee, In speaking of the Arl Department of the Appalachian Expo sltlon to be bold In Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 12 to Oct. 12, said: "The management has granted ti? Art Committee all that bas been e&ked for, and the committeo Is alive to giv ing the people a display, the like ol which has never before been seen lo the South. All the artists of tbs South will be represented, but it ls not to the Appalachian district alon? that the Art Committee ls looking; they moan to have some notable pic tures that tho public read about, pic tures from tho big places. The ge* oral public has its favorites as well as the art profession. They aro aol always tho samo, but tho province ol expositions is to give the wholo peo? plo Bomothlng, and this tho Art Com mittee of the Appalachian Exposition ox pee ts to do. "At tho Cotton States Exposition there was a splendid exhibition of plo. tures, gathered from all parts of th? world, yet tho people clamored foi the showing of 'Parting of the Ties' and lt was gotten there after tb? exposition was quito half over and proved a drawing card. So with tits Appalachian Exposition, some pi?, tures, and borne one particular p?a ture, that all wish to see, will be on exhibition. Tho public will, from time to tim?, bo kept Informed as to the work in progress. It ls too early now to glvo out any dellnlto state ment of the pictures to be secured." COUNTY CLAIMS AUDITED.

It is one of the Iron rules of vete ran bear hunters never "to go be tween two big trees standing very near together, hut younger ?nen have a contempt for rules, and, thinking to prove (he fallacy of an old ruh; rutiler than go a dozen steps out of his way, "Wabash ?III" took a (hanee. Suddenly, without the slightest warning, save a deep-tlhoaled, sav age snarl, a great brown she bear sprang upon his back and bore him, face downward, to the ground, tear ing a patch of skin from the back of his head with her teeth as ho fell. Squealing and bawling with rage or joy, a couple of half-grown cubs then joined their mother, clawing and biting at the prostrate man. The captain could offer no defense, .ne rifle had been torn form him, he had no revolver and his knife was in his pocket. Moreover, there was no chance to use a weapon, for the old bear stood right over him, the saliva from her bloody jaws pouring on his i neck. The cubs alternately blt and . clawed at his trunk and legs, keeping! up a savage growling meanwhile. The unfortunate man bore the ex cruciating pain in grim silence, with his elbows held rigidly at his sides to protect his abdomen. Had he fal. len on lils back, or had the brutes succeeded in turning him over he would have been ripped up or had his throat gashed open in an instant. Though stunned and halt" mad with pain. Hoyden realized thal lils only salvation lay In keeping still and pro tecting his throat and abdomen. A bear finds no sport in a dead victim, and litany a man has been saved by simulating death. At last the bears drew off a few feet, and silting on i heir haunches watched theil' prey, licking their blood-flecked chops and snarling omi. nously. Filled with a fearful hope, the in trepid hunter lay motionless, hardly daring to breathe. Suddenly his right arin quivered involuntarily, ow ing to a gaping wound in the muscles of the shoulder. Instantly tin; old I bear was upon bini, with a dreadful roar, and seizing his wrist in her ? teeth, bit it through. Human nature could stand no more and (he man, weak from loss of blood, fainted. Then the she bear, giving him a last slap with her massive paw, led her cubs off, still growling, through the forest.
