Tillman has re ceived a newspaper, published in Manila, called the Manila Free - dom. It seems that the Ameri cans in Manila have not forgotten the Father of their country- we do not mean Mr. Tillman-but George Washington. This Ma nila paper published on February 21st announces the approach of Washington's birthday with a great deal more of vehemence and en thusiasm than is the habit of any American newspaper of the United States. The Americans and all native loyalists on the Island of Luzon were called upon to show devotion to the mother coun ry by forming themselves into great and gorgeous processions headed by the American flag and bands of music, to celebrate the virtues of George Washington, Father of the country of Liberty which now includes the Philipines of virtue of the sovereignty of ?the United States. Another way in which the American soldiers man ifested their loyalty was, not in shooting balls at the Filipino in surgents, as we Americans suppos ed they were probably doing, but by indulging in foot ball, other wise a grand gala occasion for the exercise of the "light fantastic toe." So if dancing is better than fighting our soldiers in the Phili pines are not so much to be pitied after all. The following is a speci men dance meeting : g "The Hotel Delmonice will^eele^ brate Washmgton's_BisirJTlay with a ball in the evemg of that day which is to be the first ofa series of entertainments for the benefit of its guests. The dance will be under S the auspices of Colonel Ducat, Colonel A. P. West, Inspector ..General of the- Deparment of Nor thern Luzon, Major George E. Pic > kett, Major T. B. -?3rney Major Seymour Howell and Captain James Buchanan Bead. It will be strictly an invitation affair. Mr. Schutze the new manager of the Hotel Delmonico, will have personal charge of the arrange ments which insures its perfect success. The details are not yet complete . but are all under way, and before the ball opens every thing will be in perfect order. The beautiful aparments of the hotel will be .. tastefully decorated. All of the guests^are. taking an acti- e in terest in the matter and will leave nothing undone. These entertainments ware ; gotten up by the gentlemen named above, and will be among the most exclusive social functions of Manila eociety. Except the one on the Twenty, second, they will all be after Lent.'" AJ8TESIAN WELLS IN BURKE COUNT!-A REMARKABLE ONE JUST BORED. One of the best friends of the artesian well system in Georgia ?B Mr. Allen Jones, of Midville, Ga. Mr. Jones is one of the largest planters in Georgia and is a most intelligent, actiye and wealthy gentleman. He has bored ten or twelve overflowing artesian wells, two and one-half to three inches in diameter and 250 to 750 feet deep on hie various farms in Burke. The health on his farm hae increased seventy-five p*r cent for the better. Doctors' bills being that mu ch less, since the inauguration of his artesian water. These wells were dug by him at a co A of $200 to $300 each, but recently he has bored two at Midville that are most remarkable wells. One of them is an eight inch diameter pipe, the water from which flows constantly out of the top of a pipe, standing sixteen feet above the surface of the earth. The other one is an six-inch well that is actually flowing to a height of forty-one feet above the, plane of the earth. This is a most remarkable well and I have con nizance of no suoh well in the south. Mr. Jones is preparing to utilize it, by placing under it a thirty foot overshot wheel. This well is 700 feet deep and cost $1,200. It is beautiful ^and clear water, the water being very light and prot ^ttble. Mr. Jones will have an analysis made of the water. He says that it will act on the kidneys in twenty minutes alter drinking. The above gives an idea of the magnitude of Mr. Jones' farming operations. If he ran a trucking business and had his six-inch weel with forty-one feet head of water, in the midst of it, it would be invaluable for irrigation purposes.-Augusta Chronicle. Gen. Thos. L. Rosser will attend the Columbia reunion. Gen. Ste phen D. Lee cannot attend. I The Rome Tribune remarks that the sheep industry in the south is going to the dogs. * * * A prominent Aiken county farmer said yesterday that he ex pected to have to plow up his cot ton and plant over. * * * The Belgian hare is putting poor Molly Cotton-tail out of the game. Nobody ever thought of payiug $1,000 for a rabbit. * * * The dykes at the state farm in .Sumter county gave way while the streams were high last week. Sev eral hundred acres of land over flowed and a most promising crop of oats ruined. The loss to the State is heavy. * * * In the course of a week or ten days the roof of the state house will be torn away preparatory to beginning work on the dom9. One of the steel beams for this work haB arrived in Columbia, and the question as tojhow to get it up from the depot is bothering the contrac tor. Thin beam weighs 36,000 pounds and is 63 feet loDg, two feet thick two feet broad ard six feet high. It came on two flat cars. * * * Monday afternoon the cuban as semblage commission now en route to Washington to confer with President McKinley upon the relations of the United States to Cuba, a?d seewha1, are the chances for securing "Cuba Libre," passed through Columbia. They are said to be a particularly handsome and intelligent set of men. The com mission is composed of five men, one of whom speaks English. * * * Reliable information has bqen received in B^uforLto^tho-effect ^^Jh^^narleston and Western karolina railroad has been acquired from the Atlantic Coast Line peopl? by a new company, chartered as the Louisvile and Royal Railroad company. This line, formerly the Port Royal and Augusta railroad, extends Port from Port Royal to Anderson, S.C., audit is the purposeofi the n-iw company to build from the latter point through Rabun's Gap in the Blue Ridge mountains to Louisville. The purpose of the promoters of the new line is to op?n up the vast coal fieMs of Tennessee and Kentucky and the proposed line, which has already been surveyed from Anderson to Louisville, will pass directly through these coal regions. Good Roads. It is estimated by the Secretary of the National Farmers' Congress that the wagon transportation of the United States amounts annual ly to 500,000,000 tons; that it costs au average of $2 a ton to move it and that this is 60 per cant, more than it would cost if we had good roads all over the country-an extracost in produc ing and marketing our agricul tural products of $100,000,000. Whether or not these figures are correct, the yearly loss from bad roads amounts to a vast sum, which could be lessened year by year at a comparatively small cost, and in a few years the United States would lead the world in good rural ruads, as it now does in railroads. In New Jersey land values have .risen 30 per cent, where good roads have superseded bad, and with them have come free mail deliveries, better kept farms, and more comfortable dwelling houses. While it is not within the power of every community to build in order the most expensive type of good roads, there is no section in which the roads cannot be improved if the men most in terested will take the hme aud trouble needed to see that what money and labor are expended are used to the best advantage. As a begining, if only the worst places are repaired (stretches of ruts and hollows which do not aggreate more than a sixth of the mileage,) it will be found, as was tho case in Minnesota, that a third more could be hauled in a third less time. Such facts should cause the 'armers everywhere to do what they can to improve the roads, and united and intelligent action will bring about improvements in roadways that will do moro to make farming pleasant, as well as profitable, thau any other oue thiDg. The interest in good roads is increasing all over the country, and those sections in which th?B interest leads to permanent good, roads will be those that lead in the race for prosperity, which is such a strenuous one in the early days of the twentieth ceniury.
