Big Crowd at the Reunion. Quite a number of veterans and others from this place attended the reunion in Columbia last week and all speak of the gath| eriug as being* a most pleasant one. The reunion c'osed Thursday night with an entertainment at Columbia tneatre. It was estimated that there were 8,000 veterans in attendance Wednesbay and about 4,000 Thursday, which was the biggest day of the three. The old veterans were royally entertained and it is said that the only complaint was with reference to the manner of service of meals', which was not satisfactory, on account of a , larger crowd of veterans being present than had been antici; pated. Cotton Crop in Cad Condition. According: to President Harvey i Jordan, of the Southern Cotton Association, the cotton crop is in a very much worse condition, as ' to injury from the recent cold, than was at first thought. "It has been reported to me," said President Jordan, "that the cotton mills around Memphis ! have shipped out $200,000 worth of cotton seed to the farmers foi replanting purposes. "The price of cotton seed ol any kind has gone up to $1.50 s i bushel. These are the same sec<i that the farmers sold to the mills last vear for 20 or 22 cents 2 bushel." As to the condition of the crop, Mr. Jordan quotes from a lettei written the association by President Walter Clarke, of the Mis | sissippi division. In the Delta fifty per cent 01 the crop is in fair condition twenty-five per cent will have t< be replanted, and twenty-fivt per cent has yet to he planted ' No planting can he done for sev i eral days on account of the rains 1 The corn crop has also been seri ously damaged, and the bulk ha: already been replanted. I Under present weather condi tions, Mr. Clarke thinks that ai advance in the fall months is in ' evitable, but takes little stock ii Mr Price's statement that, he wil put July options to sixteen cents "It is simply a bait to catch suck crs; and .while there may be ar 1 advance, favorable weather con ; ditions will bring about as equal * ly a sharp decline," he says. "J cornered market is a gambler' game; and i hope the people o ? the South will noi be caught." l Clemson's Commencement.
