BE IS THY BROTHER Has he fallen, deeply fallen. From the path of truth and light' Is he groping, blindly gropini, In the blackness cf sin's night? Ishe straying, sadly strayina, From the tender Shepherd'r fold.' Is he staying, idly staying, 1 On the mountain, beak and cold If he's fallen, still remember, Thine own steps may one day stido. For while Virtue's path is narrow, Error's way is broad and wide. Or, if frcm the fold he's wandered, Lured by pleasure's voice away, Rememberfrom His loving care, Thine own feet are prone to stray. Turn not from a fellow creature Haughtily, with scornful eyes, But from sin and shameful railures. Lend a hand and help him rise. If on his brow there rests a marking, Like the bitter curse of Cain, By gentle words and kindly actions Help erase the deadly stain. Tell him of God's pardoning goodness And you'll do the Master's will, For it matters not how fallen, .Know he is thy brother still. A DANGEROUS LELAN. The Rev. Dr, Talmage Preaches vbrough The FPr se. BRooKLYN, June 10.-Rev. Dr. Tal maze, who is now sgeed ng ec:os the Pacific to Honolalo on his round the world journey, has selected as the sub ject for sermonic discourse tnrouch the press today "The Ex-ited Gove:nor," the text being taken from Acts xxiv, 25: "Felix trembled, and answered: Go thy way for this time. W Len I have a ccn venient season, I will cali for thee.' A city of marble was Cosarea-w bar ves of marble, houses of marble, temples of marbie. This being the ordinary architecture of the place, you may im agine something of the splendor of Gov ernor Felix's residence. In a room of that palace, floor tessellated, windows curtained, ceiling fretted, the whole scene affluent with Tyrian purple and statues and pictures and carvings, sat a very dark complexioned man of the name oi Felix, and beside him a woman of ex traordinary beauty, whom he bad stolen by breaking up another domestic circle. She was only 18 years of age, a princess by birth and unwittin.gly waiting for her doom-that of being buried alive in the asbes and scor're of Mount Vesuvius, which in sudden eruption one day put an end to her abominations. Well, one afternoon Drusilla, seated in the palace, weary with the man:fi cent stupidities of the place, says to Felix: "You have a very distinguished prisoner, I believe, of the vame of Paul. Do you know he is one .of my country men? I should very much like to see him. and I should very much like to hear him speak, for I hav3 heard so much about his elcquence. Besides that, the other day, when he was being tried in another room of this place and the win dows were open, I heard the applause that greeted the speech cf Lawler Ter tullus as he denounced Paul. Now I very much wish I could hear Paul speak. Won't you let me bear him speak?" "Yes," said Felix, "I will. I will or der him up now from the guardroom." Clank, clank, comes a chain up the mar ble stairway, and there is a shuffle at the door, and in comes Paul, a little old man, prematurely old through exposure -only 60 years of age, but looking as though he were 80. He bows very courteously before the governor and the beautifal woman by hie side, They say: "Paul, we have heard a great deal about your speaking. Give us now a specimen of your elcquence." Oh, if there ever was a chance of' a man to show off, Paul had a chance there! He might have harangued them about Grecian art, attut the wonderful waterworks he had sern at Corinth, about the Acropolis by moonlight, about prison life in Philippi, about "what I saw in Thessalonica." about the old mythologies, but "No!" Paul said to himsel. "I am now on the way to martyrdom, and this man and woman will soon be dead, and this is my only opportunity to talk to them about the things of eternity. And just there and then there broke in upon the scene a peal of thunder. It was the voice of a judgment day speak ing through the words of the decrepit apostle. As that grand old missionary proceeded with his remarks the stoop begins to go cut of his shoulders, and he rises up, and his countenance is illumined with the glories of a future life, and his shackles rattle and grind as he lifts his fettered arm, and with it hurls upon his abashed auditors the bolts of God's in dignation. Felix grew very white about the hips. His heart beat unevenly. He put his hand to his brow, as though to stop the quickness and violence of his thoughts. He drew his robe tighter about him as under a sudden chill. His eyes glare, and his knees shake, and as he clutches the side of his chair in a very paroxysm of terror he orders the sheriff to take Paul back to the guardroom. "Felix trembled and said: Go thy way for this time. When I have a conven ient season, I will call for thee." A young man came one night to our ser 'vice, with pencil in hand, to caricature the whole scene and make mirth of those who should express any anxiety about their souls, butlI met him at the door, his face very white, tears running down his cheek, as he said, "Do you think there is any chance for me?" Felix trembled, and so may God grant it may be so with others. I propose to give ycu two or three reasons why I think Felix sent Paul back to the guardroom and adjourned this whole subjectof religion. The first rea son was he did not want to give up his sins. He ]ooked around. There was Drnamll. He knew that when he be came a Christian he must send her back to Azizus, her lawful husband, and he said to himself, "I will risk the destruc tion of my immortal soul sooner than I will do that." How many there are now who cannot get to be Christians because they will not abandon their sins! In vain all their prayers and all their church going. You cannot keep these darling smns and win heaven, and now some of you will have to decided between the wine cup and un lawful amusements and lascivious grati fications on the one hand, and eternal salvation on the other. Dslilah sheared the locks of Samson; Salome danced Herod into the 1it; Drusila blocked up the way to heaven forFelix. Yet when I present the subject now, I fear that some of you will say: "Not quite yet. Don't be so precipitate in your demands I have a few tickets yet that I have to use. I have a few engagzements that I must keep. I want to stay a little longer in the whirl of con vivialty-a few more guflaws of unclean laughter, a few more steps on the road to death, and then, sir, I will listen to what you say. 'Go thy way for this time. When I have a convEnien, season, I will call for thae." Another reason why Felix sent Paul 'back to the guardroom and adjourned this subject was he was so very busy. In ordinary times he f1,und the affairs of state absorbing, but those were, extra ordinary times. The whole land was ripe for insurrcc'ion. The Sicarli, a band of assassins, were already prowlinir around the palace, and 1 'nopose neo thought, "I can't attendsto religion while I am pressed by affairs of state." It was business, among other thins, that ruined his scal, and I suppose there are thousands of people who are not children of Gcd because they have so much busi ness. It is business in the store--lceses, gains, unfaithful empnoyee.

And yet and yet and yet you wave him back to the guardroom, saying: "Go thy way for this time. When I have a convzntent season, I will call for thee." Again, Felix adjourned this subject of rehgion and put cif Pau's argument be cause he could not give up the honors of the world. He was afraid somehow he would be compromised himself in this matter. Remarks he made afterward showed him to be intensely a'uitiious. Oh, how he huzged tMe favor of men! I aever saw the honors of this world in taeir holhowness and hypeerisy so much as in the life and death of that wonderful man, Charles Sumner. As he went towards the piece cf burial even Independence hall in Philadelphia asked that his remains stop there on their way to Boston, The flags were at half mast and the minute guns on Boston com men throbbed after his heart bad ceased to beat. Was it always sc? While he ived, how censur-.d of legislative reso utions, how caricatured of the pictorials how charged with every motive mean and rediculous;how all the urns of scorn and hatred and billingsgate emptied up on his head; how, when struck down in senate chamber, there were hundreds of thousands of people who said, "Good for im; serves him righi!" how he had put the ccean between him and his ma ligners, that he might have a little peace d how, when he went off sick, they said he was broken hearted because he ould not get to be president or sec:eta -y of state. 0 commonwealth of Massachusetts, who is that man that sleeps in your pub lic hall, covered with gariands and wrapped in the stars and stripes? Is that the man who, only a few months before, you denounaced as the foe of re pubhcan and democratiu institutions? Is that the same man? Ye a.merican peo ple, ye could not, by one week of fan ral eulogium and newspaper leaders, whch the dead senato: could neither read nor hear, atone for 25 years et mal reatment and caricature. When I see a man like that, pursued by all the donnds of the political kennel so long as e lives and then buried under a great pile of garlands and amid the lamenta tions of a whole nation, I say to myself: What an unutterably hypocritical thing is all human applause and human favor! You took 25 years in trying to pull down as fame and then take 25 years in try ing to build his monument. My friends, was there ever a better sommentarv on the hollowness of all arthly favot? It ther- 3 are young men who read this who are postponing re ligion in order that they may have the favors of this world, let me persuade them of their complete folly. If you ooking forward to gubernatorisl, sena torial or presidential chair, let me show you your great mistake. Can it be that there is now any young man saying: "Let me have pclitical offine. let me have some of the high positions of trust and power, and then 1 will attend to religion, but not now. 'Go thy way for this time. When I have a convenient season, I will call for thee!' " And now my subject takes a deeper tone, and it shows what a dangerous thing is this deferring of religion. When Paul's chain rattled down the marble stairs of Felix that was Felix's last chance for heaven. Judging from his character afterward, he was reprobate and abandoned. And so was Drusilla. One day in southern Italy there was a tremblng of the earth, and the air got black with smoke intershot with I'quid rocks, and Vesuvius rained upon Dra silla and upon her son a horrible temp est o ashes and fire. They did not re sect religion; they only put it cif. They did not anderstand that that day that that hour when Paul stood before them, was the pivotal hour upon which every thing was poised, and that it tipped the wrong way. Their convenient season came when Paul and his guardsman entered the palace-it went away when Paul and his guardsman left. Have you never seen men waiting for a ccnvenment season? There is such a great facintion about it that, though you may have great respect to the truth of Christ, yet somehow there is your soul the thought: "Not quite yet. It is not time for me to become a Christian." I say to a boy, "Sees Christ." He says, " No; wait nutil I am a young man." I say to the young man, "Seek Christ." H~e says, "Wat until I come to midlife." I meet~ the same person in midlife and I say, "Seek Christ." He says, "Wait until I et old." I meet the same person in old age and say to him, "Seek Christ." He says, "Wait uutil I am on my dying bed." I am called to his dying couch. His last moments have come. I bend over the couch and listen for hes last words. I have partially to gues.s what they are by the motion ot his lips, he is so feeble. but railying himself, he whis pers, until I can hear htm say, "I-sm -waiting-for-a-more-econvenien t season," and he is aone! I tell you when your convenient sea son will ecome. I can tell you the year -it will be 1894. 1 can tell you what knd of a day it will be-it will be the Sabbath day, I can tell you what hour it will be-it will be between 8 and 10 o'clock. In other words, it is now. Do you ask me how I know this is your convenient season? I know it because you are here, and because they are here, and because the Holy Spirit is here, and because the elect sons and daughters of God are praying for your redemption. b:ceuse some ? )ou, like Felix, trem-le as ,our past life comes up n 3 ou witKA t sin and all the fulure lifa ccmes upon you with ts terr'r.

The Jacksonville Times-Union which has no use for Governor Tillman po itically, in a recent issue gives the Gov ernor credit for saying two things at the immigration convention at Augus ta, that every community in the South should think about and act upon. The Times-Union says "the Governor is quoted by the Associated Press dis patches as saying that it was well enough to invite people and capital from the outside, and all that came would be welcome; but for every dollar of outside capital the Southern people must expend ten of their own, if they were in earnest about desiring to build up the South. That the future of this section depends on the efforts of our wn people, and what the Southern farmer needs most is an immigration )f ideas and intelligent agricultural methods. That Southern farmers would ever prosper as long as they spend ix months in xilling grass in their lelds , and the next six in buying hay from Maine and Northern States. Like many other speakers Governor Tillman mxaggerated for the sake of giving em phasis to his ideas. It is not necesasr for the Southern people to spend ten jollars of their own money to obtain ne of foreign capital for a Souttiern investment but it is necessary that they should invest some of their o wn money in any undertaking for which they hope to get outside support. Au undertak ig that does not show enough home 3onfidence to secure a reasonable back ing from the men in whose midst it is to be established will not be likely to :ommand much foreign support. On this line the South should take this ai rice from Gov. Tillman. If you wish to do a thing commence it yourselves, and don't ask for outside help until you show you are in earnest. As to the farmer-s of the South many of them have already learned the lesson that Governor Tillman recommended for their study. They are already rapidly making the South the home of diversi Red agriculture, and their success shows rtbat the advice is good. The other esson from Governor Tillman we comn mend, especially to the people of Jack sonville. He declared that he had no pla of his own, but that he had come : the congress to put his shoulder ot any wheel that started in the right di :ection, and to do all in his power to ceck anything starting wrong. He had no pet scheme of his own, but was ready to cooperate earnestly in any that promised to accomplish the ob jects of the immigration movement. What a city we could make of Jack sonville if all of our leading men would ut a shoulder to any wheel that start sd in the right direetion-that is if they would put their shoulders on the right ide of the wheel. The trouble is, we iave too many men who put their thoulders to the wheel to push back ward movement. Governor Tillmnan's suggestions were good, and the people 1 Jacksonville would do well to profit by them, without stopping to inquire where they came from." Heterogeneous Democracy. The Columbia State is thoroughly dis rusted with the action of the State Democratic Executive Committee in eceiving the Weaverites back into the party. "As the Democratic party of South Carolina stands today all white men, whether Democrats Republicans >r Populists, have equal rights In it" it says: In answer io whIch the Green rile News truty says: "Why, that has been the case in South Carolina since 876. Every white man has been irtually counted as a Democrat. We aave had high tariff and low tariff men, paper money and gold basis men, people of allikinds and varieties of po itical belief. The men who voted for M.cLane, the greenback candidate for loverisor, in 1883 were admitted back into the party without a word of pro est. In Greenville county, we know, and probably in other counties men who are Republicans in all their politi al principles have called themiselves Democrats and have been sctive in ocal party affairs as Democrats; while thers who were declared Republicans iave been voting, regularly in the De mocratic primaries. It Is a bold at :empt to Ignore patent conditions and pst history to contend that the white men ot the State cannot divide up on snconomical policies and national is sues and come together again on the ;reat overshadowmng issue in the State." THE Rev. Andrew Jackson Potter tas announced himself a candidate for sheriff and tax collector of Tom Green Lounty, Texas. He will be remembered as the gentleman who created consid rable excitement several years ago by rising in his pulpit in Uvalde, Texas, with two big six shooters in his hands and informed the audience, mostly composed of the toughest of toughs and who had run many other ministers ut of the town, that if there was asny body in the audience who had the au lacity to assume that he could put him out of the pulpit to step forth and 'take his medicine, and wound up by sayig that with the help of God and thse two forty-fives he proposed to preach to the people that day.

I our first Da rents had ret uoed their sinless integrity all peifictirns would have been trans mitted to their posterity through endless a-res aud a 2diection from original purity would have been io p-ssible. This grand opportunity was lost and thus the curse was entaled on posterity and depravity took possession of the race. But buman exigency i the divine opportunity. Re pent ance, regeneration and sanctification are the remedial cxsedients by whi::h Giod sojubt to redeem the race. One half (f the human race dies before reaching the age of ive. Many of the otheis pass away before they reach the years of accountability. S> a majority of the race is tranferred to the paradise of God and Heaven is peopled largely with children. The death of each infant is a deftat to Satan. If the presence of the gLieeful glorided children gladden the streets and mansions of the New Jerusa :em how faarfully dreary, doleful and de solate must be Satan's dominions, where childhood never can enter. Parents some'tmes charge God fool ishly when their children are taken away but these little oses did not live in vain. Tney bad their objective work. The marvellous miaistry of helpleness and innocence ha; accomplished much in mellowing and softening older hearts. Delicate chords are touched into har mony by tiny fingers where they would not respond to the rude sweep ot older bands. The gay, frivolous society wo man is of tea brought to herself by the death of her child. A common grief and a common tie in Heaven binds parents closer together hece on ear.h. Children are leaders towards the Kingdom of G'd. Let not everything be attributed to the preacher. bcoks, the press, because thousands are led to a higher and better life throuh the ministry of little chil dren. In the first epoch of the world's his tory the means of salvation included the children, for Noah failed to save the world from the flood, but hesaved all his own family. Then came the grand op portunity of the race, tut Noah fell and his posterity was exposed to ravages of sin. The second epoch was when Abraham was called to becone the founder of a great nation and .be promise was to him and his children. They were included in the covenant as often as it was repeated. In the third epoch God commanded Moses to keen the children of Israel a separate and distinct people. SpEcial instructions were given as to the training of children. In this school the Israelites were kept with fortunes for 1.500 years, wben the last great epoch was ushered in by the birth of th~e Saviour, who con secrated childhood forever by His birth in the manger at Bethelehem. In all His teaching He was especially conider ate of litte children. In all these leading epochs the spiri tual aaencies were directed to chaldhood. At any given time the majority of the race is young. In this majority there are those who will live the longest time and exercise the greatest it~fi.ence. W hen one seeks to instruct children they are dealing with those who are to be co ne the most important factors in work ig out the world's destiny. The mind of children is receptive, the conscience is tender, vicious habits have not been formed, and it is easier to plant ood seeds which will yield abundantly ood fruits. Childhood offers natural and coastitutional facilities for the op eration of the spirit of God. Children are imitative and gladly follow others. They are curious and are always ready to demand the reason for things. They never doubt and their faith is strong un til they are deceived. This is the forma tive period when character is fixed. The impressions of childhood are more last ing than those made later in life. The mother's smiles and cradle songs will all come up to the aged when they are descending the dark valley. Mothers write with indelible ink. Archimedes be lieved he could move the world if he had a place to stand and a rest for his ful crum. Childhood is the iulcrum and eternal truth is the leyer, and by this a fallen world can be lifted back into the bosom of its God. Feathering His Nest. The Atlanta Constitution says that Coxey is evidently a frugal and practi cal individual and report has it that he has made the general business In which he embarked at Massillon in March a profitable one from a purely financial point of view. Some observing labor reformer in Washington has estimated that Coxey is $7,000, or more, "ahead of the hounds," in the job of leading the commonwealers to the city. He de clares that Coxey from the day he left home has been constantly in receipt of checks, postal notes and currency from sympathizers in his movement and that very little of this money has been expended on. his followers, who have lived off the country, but has been put where it would do Coxey individually the most good. At first Coxey took special pains to have published the contributions to his cause with the amount of their donations, but this very soon ceased, not because donations did not arrive, but it was not necessary from the business side to publish more than the harrowing details of the physical .sufferings of his men. No one knows' except Coxey himself how much has been oonated to the army of peace. It is asserted that these contri butions aggregate between 810,000 and 812.000, of which not more than one third is thought to have been expended on the army. This is the trouble al ways. The leaders of such movements as Coxey's are always lookihg out for the main chance and as long as they can fool people and fleece them in the name of the poor they will do it, in stead of going to work and earning an nonest living like the rest of us. Kilina in. Birminaham. BIiRMINGHAM, Ala., June 14.-Af ter knocking down ex-Mayor Jeffries, an aged man, P. G. Bowman shot and killed young jEngene -Jeffries, the two affairs occurring only an hour apart in the Florence hotel here. About 7 p. m. P. G. Bowman, a prominent figure in politis, was in the Florence hotel bar drinking, when ex-Mayor Thomas Jef fries walked in. Bowman made some insulting remark; the lie was passed and Bowman knocked the old man down. Friends intercepted and the old man went his way. It was an hour later when Eugene Jeffries, a son of the ex-mnayor, whom, it is said, had heard of the affair, and had expressed his intention of making Bowman apol ogize, wvalked into the bar where he ws still drinking. No sooner had the boy opened the door than Bowman pulled a guni and fired killing Jeffries instantly. Bowman was hurried from the scene as quickly as possible, and soon a crowd gathered whose threats were maay, and there was a likelihood of his being, lynched if a chance had A WAR ROMANCE. '.Jack Masop," theGuerill+ Turns Up .4 A Mrs, Jahn Mason. BURKSViLLE, Ks-., itine 13.-The preparations for the trial of a land suit % which is to come up at the approaching k term of the circuit court in this town has revealed a singular story. Through- c out the civil war this backwoods region sE -Burksville is 40 miles from the near- c( est railroad-was debatable ground. It was harried alike by federals and con federates, and, worse than all, by the guerillas, who claimed either flag, as it M suited their convenience, and robbed , the friends of both alike. In the early days of the war a party bi of guerillas who were mainly of con- ti federate sympathies made their head- in quarters in Bennett township, in this N county. From that vicinty they made many raids through the surrounding i country, and often attacked detach ments of federal troops. One of the boldest and most dashing tc of the guerillas was a young fellow ti named Jack Mason, who said he was t from Tennessee. But of his family and antecedents he told his companions st nothing. He was slender in form and effeminate in face and -manner. But these circumstances were attributed to his extreme youth. His enterprise and n bravery in battle prevented his compan- b ions from commenting upon his girlish t appearance. One day a "smart" skirmish between W querillas and federal troops was fought tt jack Mason was wounded in the shoul- c der and fell from his horse. His com- b panions picked him up and carried him off with them. But he was so severely s wounded that the rude surgery of the t camp was not sufficient. A friendly E farmer named John Orth took the E wounded youth into his house, and Mrs Orth nursed him. Mason had not been in the house of the orths long before they discovered ti that their wounded guest was a girl in C disguise. The girl's wound, though CB not serious, was painful and slow in e healing. She was in bed several months and in that time a baby girl was born. When the mother became strong and g well she suddenly disappeared from the home of the Orths, leaving her baby. She also left a considerable sum of money and some jewels and a note di- a recting that they be used for the benefit a of the baby. st Tiej Orths adopted the little girl, and S she grew to womanhood, married a ai prosperous young farmer named May- u: hew, and is now the mother of two ti children. Maynew owned some land al in this county, which he sold. Later a ti question of title came up and his wife 1 was summoned as a witness. In the rc course of her testimony she told the h. strange story of her abandonment by w her mother, the disguised soldier. Lo- ci cal newspapers printed the facts, and they were reprinted in a newspaper at tc Knoxville, Tenn. Recently a middle aged but good t< looing woman arrived here. She said f, she was Mrs. John Mason, who lived a near Knoxville, Tenn., and that Mrs. i Mayhew was her daughter. Then she told her story. She said she was the disguised soldier, Jack Mason. She r( had run away from her home in Ten- el nessee, and had married a young man against the will of her parents. After- b wards she became jelous of her husband b and deserted him. Ashamed to return home she had put on men's clothes and ti joined the guerillas. When she left the house of the Orths, I she said, she intended to return and u claim her baby, but when she reached east Tennessee she fell into a fpver and c was never after wards able to 1 icate the Ct place where the Orths resided. She and her husband where reunited, and s they advertised extensively for the t child, but heard nothing. Mrs. Mayson was overjoyed at find ing her daughter, Mrs. Mayhew. -r A Circular to Milltary, a( COLUMBIA, S.

AND INSPEC, GENERAL. sC COrLUBIA, b. C., June 11th, 1894. he Sir: I am instructed by the Commana- fc der-in-Chief to issue the following circu- if lar for the information of the newly or- S eanized military companies. After the 0o Darlinaton riot every encouragement was given by the Governor to the organ ization of new companies and to all suc~h A a promise was made that they would be armed and equipped as soon as possible. Owing to the policy pursued by the Ad utant Generals during the last ten years the State has very few first class arm3 and there were none in stock, so that in d( arming new companies only those were s1 available thatjwer? taken from the com- :B panies who refused to obey the Gover- in or's orders, and these have airady been l distributed. The rule adopted In the 0 dstribution was to arm campanies in the Cl counties where none previously existedT 2d. To leave the arms alread in a county where they were giving them to tb te new companies taking the place of t te old onse. 3d. To arm those com- T panies which came to Columbia during CS the riot. Upwards of 100 companies f bave been organized and the cffizers T commissicned, while the Adjutant Gen- ta eral has only taken arms from about te eighteen companies, thus leavmng over ac eihty still unarmed. The annual ap 01 pr~opriaton for the maintenance of the al militia is not available for the purchase Ut of arms, but must be distributed prorata he among the companies already in exist ence, whIch meet the requirements of m the law, There is,therefore,no money at a present with which to buy arms, but inc July the appropriation from Congress will be available for the purchase of armss and when the Legislature meets the rovernor will advise an additional ap- re propriation for the pnrchase of arms. The Commander-in-Chief takes this op portunity of urging the companies to at perfect themselves in drilling and to at urcase a cheap shirt or blouse to be -0 ised as a uniform. Ee-will exert him to elf to the utmost to arm all the comn- It panies he has commissioned ns soon as T possible. WI By order of the Commander in-Chief: B. L.

Mr. Lane was a re- be tired merchant, and was worth about Li p0,000. He lives with his sons-Daniel s and Mi-hael-aud his daughter. Mrs. te Patrick Feeney. Daniel is dissIpated, U Mr. Lane had been ill for a long time, ed Daniel was afraid that his brotber and oi ister would infinence their farther to W make a will disinheritmng him.

Gen le :- m- r to the People of S nth C -.:fiina. In the current issue of the Baltimore anufacturers' Record Mr. D. A. Tom ns, of CUarlotte, one f the must suc ssful cotton wanufacturers in that ction has an interesting article on -operation in building cotton mills. r.Tomkins shows how companies can organized and the money ra!sed by eekly payments for building cotton ills in such a way as to make the or mnizd-tion of such companies feesible hundreds of towns where it would impossible to secure large subscrip ors. In the South we have fe w sav gs banks,compared with those in the ortb, and we need enterprises that ill encourage the habit et saving and vesting a portioa of the weekly earn gs of the average citizen. Building id loan asso:iatlons supply this want some extent, but we need co-opera ve companies to push industrial en rprises with the capital that can sily be furnished in small weekly in allments from thousands of our pee e. The success of this plan in Charlotte eaks for itself. Mills have been built ar Charlotte by subscriptions paya e weekly in small sums for one, two, ur and eight years, but the favorite an is that of paying 50 cents per eek on a share for four years. At is rate 1,000 shares would make a pital of $100,000, a sum sufficient to ild a cotton mill of about 5,000 indles, with looms enough to weave eir product. Mr. Tompkins gives e following Estimate for such a mill: mployees, men and boys...........30 mgloyees, women and girls........60 ay roll per week, about..........$350 ales cotton consumed per weeli...20 in North Carolina the products of te different mills vary greatly. At 2arlotte one mill makes warp yarns, iother skein yarns doubled andI twist I, another makes both warps and eins, another white cloth, another oghams, another counterpanes and wels, another stockings and knit >ods. Those mills which make colored )ods must have dye works. If the subscriptions to the stock of i enstallment mill are made payable the rate of 50 cents per week per tare, and the capital subscribed wast [00,000, then in the first year the nount paid in to the company's treas :y would be about $25,000. With Lis money the buildings could be built id paid for, leaving a surplus in the easury. The buildings would be a ain building, engine room, boiler om and houses or cottages for the inds to live in. In some special cases, here the factory was to be built in a ty, these houses might not be built, i the hands could find board or houses rent near by the factory in the city. enerally speaking, however, it is best put a factory one to four miles away om a city, and let the company build id own the houses the employes live In Charlotte no house rent is charged, e factories furnishing houses free of t. In some other places rent is arged at the rate of $1 per room. Considering that subscriptions were ing paid regularly, and that the iidings were all completed and paid r at the end of about one year, and at the company's income was about ,000 per month from regular install ent payments on- subscriptions. then ider these conditions about $2,500 ndles and appeartaining machinery uld be bought for a good casl pay ent, and the remainder payable ,000 to $2,000 per month. In about teen to eighteen months from the me the first payments were made the Ill could be started up on about one ird to one-half its capacity; then the mainder of the machinery could be ded and started up from tIme to me as the money continued to come by installments. No dividends should be paid until .e stock is paid in full and the offi rs should receive very small salaries. de mills near Charlotte, built on this an, have been very successful, and me of them during the dull season ive run night and day to fill orders r their goods. The co-operative plan fairly tried would soon make the uth the cotton manufacturing center the world. A NARROW ESCAPE. Lion Attacks Bi Tamer la~ the CONEY ISLAND, N. Y., June 10. lie.

At Charleston the week average one de gree a day cooler than seasonable while westward there was an average exceEs of two degrees a day. There were one or two rather cool nights, but on the whole the temperature was favorable. There was very little cloudiness except on Wednesday the 6:h, when the sky was overcast durinz the afternoon.

The as normal amount for the first week in June is approximately one inch. Over ex many portions of the State there has w been no rain that moistened the soil t deeper than an inch or so, since about 01 the 20 of May and the previous rainfali S! had not left the ground in condition g to stand a prolonged drought as the comparative records at Charleston and Columbia will show. At Charleston the average rainfall from March 1st to June 10th is 13.47 inches, this year the rainfall has been 5.78 inches, making a ( deficiency of 7.69 inches. At Columbia (c the comparison is equally unfavorable. C Average from Marca 1st to date 13.19 g1 inches. rainfall this year, March 1st to ( date 5.18 inches making a deficiency of 8.01 inches. The effects of this defici- (f ency in rainfall are felt mostly by the cereal crops, except possible corn and rice, grasses, gardens, etc., or in general terms, food and forage crops which stand in urgent need of rain to prevent ( them from being more or less failures. o Pastures are dying out with no new growth to replace the grassed cropped. Grasses for haymaking no growth, Cow peas are being sown on stubble el and in corn fields, but not as they d( would be were the soil in better condi- C tion.
