The United States Senate Com mittees have been announced, Senator Butler is Chairman of the Committee on Inter-State Com merce and the Five Civilized Tribes of Indians. He is also a member of the Committees on Foreign Re lations, Naval Affairs, to Investi gate Trespassers upon Indian Lands and Additional Accommo dations for the Library of Congress. Senator Irby is Chairman of the Committee on Transportation Routes to the Seaboard, and is also a member of the Committees on Post Offices and Post Roads, Mine, Coast Defences and C'vil Service*. COTTON SEED BUBBEB. They are now actually making India rubber shoes out of cotton seed oil. This is not a hoax, but an absolute verity. The factory is located near Savannah. The site j of five acres was purchased four miles from that city, a high board fence was erected around the prop- j erty, the factory was built in the enclosure, and has been running fox months.. Nobody knows what is going on inside the factory ex cept a few ignorant negroes, and no one is admitted, because the secret is hot patentable. A writer] in the Baltimore Manufacturers' Record writing on this subject says: "The bare facts alone are known that crude cotton seed oil, costing about 50 cents a gallon, or about $125 a ton, is carted in, in five ton lots, and that tons of rubber, .worth about $2,000 a ton, are cart ed out and shipped to avery prom-1 inent rubber dealer and manufac turer in Boston. The value of the new industry to its discoverer and" his associates is indicated by the figures we have just given. It is not easy to over-1 estimate its value to the South and | to the world. The uses of rubber are increasing every year, and the demand for the article is taxing the natural supply already. If! the artificial product can success fully be employed for all or moBt of the purposes to which the natu ral product is applied, or would be j applied if its cost were cheapened, there will soon be a market for all of it that can be made in the South, and the cotton farmers will be directly and greatly benefited by the increased value of the raw material, cotton seed oil, which they must supply. It has been predicted that the seed of the cotton plant will some day represent a larger value than the lint, and that it may yet come to pass that the crop will be plant ed mainly for the profit in the] seed. It really begins to appear as if the prediction, wild as it it seemed at first, will yet be veri fied. A berry or nut-or whatever it is-that furnishes at once a wholesome table and cooking oil, the best kind bf food for all cattle, a sugar fifteen times sweeter than cane sugar, a rick fertilizer agent, and material for the making such varied articles of usefulness as Alabama strings, erasers, galoshes, gum boots, bicycle and buggy tires, hospital bods, soldiers' overcoats, ladies' wraps and car buffers and springs, has a future before it that it would be vain to attempt to out; : line orto limit." 'rr"r" 'TTT COL. CUNNINGHAM DEAD. Col. John Cunningham, known in Edgefield as Col. Jack Cunning ham, died at his home in Laurens county on the 10th inst., in the seventy-fifth, year of his age. He belonged to a past generation, and not many know of his active career in earlier times. He was the son of Capt. Robert Cunning ham, a prominent officer of the war of 1812, and a distinguished citizen of this State. His mother was Miss Louisa Bird, a Virginia lady. Miss Pamela Cunningham, the famous "Southern Matron," author of the movement to pur chase Mount Vernon, was his sis ter. He was a first-cousin of Wil liam L. Yancey, of Alabama, the great secession orator, and he was also gifted with the fiery eloquence for which Mr. Yancey was cele brated. He was a grand-nephew of Col. William Cunningham, of j Revolutionary fame, familiarly j known as "Bloody Bill," a dreaded ? Tory leader. Col. Cunningham all through life was an earnest and enthusiastic advocate of the duelling code. J Early in life he met upon the field | of honor Judge Samuel McGowan, now Associate Justice of the Su preme Court of this State. Shots ? were exchanged and Judge Mc Gowan was slightly wounded. In 1856 Col. Cunningham became en gaged in a heated newspaper con troversy with Mr. L. M. Hatch, one j of the editors of the Standard. This led to a correspondence be tween the two editors, which ter minated in a hostile meeting. The encounter, which took place on the Washington Race Course on July 28,1856, was bloodless and after an exchange of shots an amicable adjustment of the difficulty was effected. 'During the last few years of his ife Col. Cunningham developed a strong advocacy of spiritualism, and, with others entertaining the same opinions, he held weekly seances, at which it is said strange disclosures were made.' " The Cotton Crop in Sight. NEW YORK, Narch 18.-The total visible supply of cotton for tho world is 4,072,830 bales, of which 3,681,600 bales are American against 4,72,539 and 4,050,339 respectively last year. Receipts from plantations 38,355 ; receipts from all interior tow:is 30.711. Crop in sight 5,890,086. CENTRAL ASIA COTTON. The following acconut of the rapid increase in cotton production in Asia will show our farmers that they must soon perforce turn their attention to something other than the fleecy staple ; for in addi tion to over-production in America they will have to compete with an immense production the other side of the water. ... In 1871 but 23,000,000 pounds of Turkestan cotton found its way to European Russia. In 1881 this had increased to 45,000,000 and in the year 1891 the total amount sent out was 93,000,000 pounds. While this, when compared to America's production of 2,814, 000,00o pounds yearly may see but minute, a careful examination will show that the progress of the increase of production is so rapid that it will not be long before this Turkestan cotton will rival American products not only in the Russian markets, but also in those in Western Europe. . Another significant factor is the extremely low cost of production. It is needless to go into elaborate explanations on this head. Suffice it to state that whereas the aver age price of cotton in the United States is about 12 cents per pound, The Turkestan product may be bought at Nijal Novgorod for as low as 7 and 8 cents, and eyen less. Nor is l^e Turkestan staple any inferior in quality to that of America. Indeed, on the contrary, that couutry is very fortunate both in the climate and soil as regards the production of cotton. The climate is soft and the ideal one for the semi-tropical products. The soil is rich with salt and supersulpbate of limo. These two are quite significant items iu themselves. Furthermore, the plaut, which attains in this region some niue and a half feet in height, and a thickness of stalk of two and a half inches is singularly free from the various kinds of worm, such as the cotton worm boll worms, etc., which are accredited with destroying nearly 34 per cent of the American colton crop. While the caterpillar does appear here, it is only toward the ond of the summer, and thus does more good than harm, since it eats off the top leaves of the plant, and lets in the sunlight to shine upon the lower portions of it, at the time when it needs it most, as the crop is gathered in August. There are at present sixteen mills at Andijan, and, as these have been found incapable?of- HS where near filling the demand, 8 more are already in course of construction, and several others have been contracted for. One of these present mills is capable of cleaning 2,000 puds (about 7,000 pounds) per dav BUTLER AND EARLE. Senator Butler Contradicts Col. Earle. Columbia State. WASHINGTON, March 18-I asked Senator Butler today if it w:is true as alleged by Col. Earle in the Greenville News that previous to the correspondence betweee them on the 15th inst., Col. Earle asked him personally Whether he would vote for his confirmation sf nomi nated, and he said he would do so. "It is not true," replied Senator Butler. I asked Mr. L. M. Fouche of Ninety-Six, who was present at the interview, whether Senator Butler made such a statment. "He did not make it, during my presence," said Mr. Fouche. Mr. Fouche to-day addressed the following letter to the senator: " Dear Sir : At your request. I will endeavor to give my under standing of an interview between Gen. Joseph H. Earle of Greenvile, S. C., and yourself, which occurred in this city on Wednes day, 15th instant. I was at your residence, and there met Gen. Earle, and heard Gen. Earle ask you if it was true, as had been stated by the News and Couier and The State that if he (Earle) was nominated for district attorney that the Senate would not confirm his appointment, and if such statement had been author ized by you. Senator Butler dis claimed having any knowledge of these statements, and suggested to Gen. Earle to not pay any at tention to newspaper squibs. Gen. Earle said he could not allow the papers to take euch license; if they did, he would give them a place of his mind. He further stated that he felt a delicacy in asking Senator Butler to endorse him, and thought it useless, as he understood he had pledged him self to Gen. Youmans. Senator Butler again stated, that was another mistake, and said that he had placed the same endorse ment >n several applications for thi# same office. "That the with in named applicant is qualified to fill the office asked for," or words to that effect, and that he would give th?! same endorsment on his application should it be placed in his hands. < Senator Butler then asked his authority as tojthe statement that he was pledged)tcTGen. Youmans. Gen. Earle replied, he could not give his authority, but that it was a rumor. Gen. jEarle then asked Senator Butler if he wp?ld reduce this to writing. He" said he would ; ann .Gen. Earlej. asked that .it-be done then and there. There being no paper convenient, Senator Butler suggest&chhat 'Geri.* Earle address him a note to his office, and he would reply at once. Gen. Earle immediately left, and Senator Bjitler and myself went to his committee room. While there, ' j\?r. Sullivan of Charleston came' in and handed Senator Butler a note from Gen. Earle, asking if ie were nominated for United States District Attorney by the President^ would he vote for his confirmation. Senator Buffer replied, by Mr. Sullivan, declining to answer the question. I read both notes. This is as nearly as possible, the conversation that took place in my presence. Yours, very truly, LUREN8 M. FOUCHE. The following is the correspon dence : WASHINGTON, March lo. --Hon. M. C. Butler, U. S. Sen ator-Dear Sir : Referring to our conversation this morning, I would be glad to know' whether you would vote for " confirmation should the President nominate me for tho position of United States District Attorney for South Caro lina. Very respectfully. JOSEPH H. EARLE. Kindly send me a reply by Mr. Sullivan. ..?i. U. S. SENATE,' - WASHINGTON? March 15, Hon. Joj?ph H. Earle, Washington D. C.-Dear Sir; In reply to your letter ?of this date ; just handed me by Mr. D. A. J. Sullivan, asking me if I would vote for confirmation if the Presi dent should nominate you for dis trict attorney for South Carolina, I bog to say it would be improper for mo to say what I will do in executive sebsion oi tte Senate; and I must therefore decline to answer your question. Very respectfully, M; C. BUTLER Col. Karie's Side. The following isg?ol. Earle's conception of what was said, as it appears in the Greenville News. Col Earle returned here yestor-^ day from Washington and when seen by! at: repris . I "Greenville News- hatly and emphatically contradicted the above statement. He says he called -on Senator Butler and asked ' if ?the senator had said he would ^oppose his (Earle's) confirmation if he was nominated for district attorney. The senator replied that he had made no such statement. Colonel Earle then asked if the senator would vote to confirm the nomination if made. "Assuredly," was the reply. Colonel Earle says he then as ked if Senator Butler would put that in writing. The senator said he would. Colonel Earle asked for"writing'materials,but there were none convenient the conversation having occ urred at Senator But ler's house. Colonel Earle says he .promised at Senator Butler's suggestion to write and send to the; senator's office a note covering the points of their conversation- He return ed to the hotel, wrote the note, and meeting Mr. Sullivan who said he was going to Senator Butler's office, entrusted the note to him. No reply was received and his first knowledge that one had been sent was when he read the. above state ment in The State.

He did nothing iu particular save smoke cigarettes and beg for theater tickets, and was known to all the reporters as "Murph." One night he wanted to go to a certain show very badly, but had not been successful in begging or steal ing a ticket from the dramatic editor. He went up to the theater about 8 o'clock and stood around the gallery en trance in the hope that he could in some way gain admittance. The manager of the theater carno along in a little while, and noticing him standing there, said, "Hello," M?rphl" and went into the house.

Monroe is a flag station on the Bots ford branch of the New Haven and Derby road. When the engineer of Con ductor Beer's train saw the flag exposed" a day cr two ago he stopped his "train. Only one person, an old lady, was to be seen, and the conductor stepped from the train to help her aboard. The old lady did not stir, and the conductor said, "Step on board, lady, so we can go on." Then her month opened, and she said: "Laws, I don't want to get aboard. 1 stopped you to send word to my folks that I was coming up tomorrow, and 1 want you to tell John to meet me at the station to cave for my baggage." Then she stopped, for the train-was moving, the conductor having given the signal to start wi thon t waiting to learn where "John" and "my folks" lived, while the old lady looked as though she thought train officials were not very accommodating when they would not even carry a message for her.-Hartford Courant. _ An At tor's Unknown Friend.

The perspiration began to ooze when a gen tleman stepped up, laid a twenty dollar bill on the desk, and said: *1 know you. sir; allow me to settle.' "Jefferson was profuse in his thanks, and when near the door, said: " 'Yon must give me your name and address, sir. in order that 1 may call around tomorrow and settle.'

The Romans were not acquainted with the use of regular soap, but they employed an alkali, with which the greasy dirt was dissolved out of their clothes. This alkali, called nitrum, is referred to by Pliny, but the cheapest solvent was urine, which was mostly used. The clothes were put in this, mixed with water and then stamped upon with the feet This process was performed by old people, while boyB lifted the clothes out of the tubs. The white garments, after being washed, were subjected to the vapor of sulphur, being stretched on a frame and the sul phur burned beneath.

' . 7' 'rM Its Policies are the Most Liberal Now Offered to the Public. Is the only existing Company whose policies are, orean be subject to the MAINE NON-FORFEIT URE LAW. ?WHAT IT IS. The Maine Non-Forfeiture law protects policies from forfeiture by reason, of default of payment of premiums. It provides that, after three years' premiums have been paid, failure to pay any subsequent pr-miums shall not forfeit a policy, but it shall continue in force for its full amount until the reserve (less a small surrender charge) upon the policv is exhausted. The reserve is a sum made up of portions of each and every pre mium paid upon a policy in anticipation of its maturity. Beginning with a small portion of the first premium, it is increased each year by the addition of each subsequent premium, and grows laTger year by. year, until, at maturity, it exactly equals the face of the policv. When a policy is discontinued therefore, there is in the hands of the .Com pany a reserve, greater or less, according to the character and age of the policy. Instead of permitting the Company, upon non-payment of premium, to confiscate this reserve, the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law requires the Company to continue the policy in.force until the policy holder receives an equivalent for it in extended insurance. How IT WORKS. If a person, aged 35, pays three years' premiums upon a twenty payment Life policy and then discontinues payment, the policy wil be continued 4 years and 257 days longer; if he pays five premiums, and then discontinues, the insurance will continue 7 years and 357 days longer. If the policy is a twenty year endowment, same age, three years' payments will give an extension of 8 years and 150days; five years' payment 13 years, 300 days. If the policy is a 15 Year Endowment, ($1,000) same age, three years' payments will secure insurance to the* end of the endowment period and $13.68 in cash if insured lives till that time, and in like manner ten years' payments secures insurance for the full 15 years and $592.17 in cash. T?ese extensions vary with the age of the insured, the class of policy, and the number of pay manta madgiJ^ffi,, ft*T ?<-ftk**-i" e Lpolicyvi? yearrum* ilajiB? Turea^lTfltlmb^r.ioTpayments, so that the ? policy-holder knows ata glance exactly what he is entitled to if he discontinues his payments at any time. What it Has Done. The Company Has Paid over Two Hundred Death Claims, in con sequence of this law,'aggregating in sums insured more than Four Hundred Thousand Dollars. In every case there had been a default in the payment of pre mium, and, except for this law, the policies would have been of little or no value. Instead of this, the insurance in each case was extended to the time of death, and the Company was required to pay to the beneficiaries under the policies the sum of $418,335.77. Tue Tie o? Maine Law Extensions as Court WITH IP-AJEID-TJIP VJLUJTJES. It is the custom of many companies to provide in their policies that, upon discontinuance of payment of Premium, paid-up policies will be given, without the option of extension. This was the practice of the Union Mutual before the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law was en acted, but it now substitutes for paid-up values the more advantage ous plan of extended insurance. The objection to the paid-up system is that the amount of ^aid-up insurance which is given upon the dis continuance of payments upon a policy, unless it has been in force a great many years, is insignificant, and of little or no value as protec tion ; and it leaves the insured who ceases payment without adequate insurance at the very time he needs it the most. The great advantage of the extended insurance afforded by the Maine Law over the most liberal paid-up system is strikingly shown by the following comparison, and it will be observed that the paid-up value is insignificant in comparison with the amount actually paid by the Union Mutual. The result of two hundred and twelve policies was this : If the insured had received paid-up policies instead of ex tended insurance, the Company would have had to pay in settlement of the claims only. $98,197.50 Whereas, in fact, it did pay under the Maine Law, $418,344.77 Making a difference in favor of the beneficiaries under Two Hundred and Twelve pol iciei of $320,147.28 The policies are free from ?//restrictions, aud incontestible after ONE YEAR. A grace of one month is given in the payment of premiums. For further information call on, or address, B. B. EVANS, Manager for South Carolina, Office, No. 1, Advertiser Building,
