A very pretty tale of the Southland, yet withal a strong one, is the novel ette published in the February Lip- pincott’s under the title “Nance.” The plot is striking and evidences the author’s ingenuity. The characters stand out clear cut and vivid, with the good not too good, and the bad not too bad, to be thoroughly human. Robert Adger Bowen, the writer, has contributed to most of the leading magazines during the past few vears, and this his latest w r ork shows marked improvement over his best previous effoits.

On Tuesday morning at 3 o’clock the handsome new two story dwelling of Air. L E. Phillips w T ith entire contents was burned. The origin strongly points to incendiarism. Mr. Henry W. Holloway the wounded police officer, with his wife and little child occupied rooms on the top floor and it looks like some mid-night assassion was attempt ing to burn him, as he lay as it were cha ned to his bed. Those who first saw the fire say that the dwelling was saturated with kero sene oil and the oil was yet burning on the ground, and base of the chimney when they got to the tire. There is a grim determination on the part of the citizens that the perpetrator shall be brought to speedy justice. IN1QHT and DAV is running night and day the celebrated At Wilcox’s. Mrs. Geo. T.

A meeting of about twenty citizens was held on Tuesday afternoon in John son’s hall to discuss the practicability of getting up j seme kind of public amusement in Aiken this season. It v/as decided that horse races, extend ing through two days would be the most attractive, and probably the most practicable form of amusement, and a committee comprising Messrs. L. M. C. Oliveros. John P McNair, H. M. Dib ble, H. 0. Whilden C E. Wessels, D. W Gaston and W. Q. Davis was at once appointed to interview the business men, and others of the community, and accertain whether such a race meet as was suggested could be got up for some dates in the latter part of March, and to report at another meeting of citizens to be held at the same place next Tuesday afternoon. The sentiment « f tne meeting was strongly in favor of horse races, and these will be arranged if it be practica ble. TYXLr’s^'. J' i''*M V REMEDY. A. Guaranteed Cure.

White Versus Negto Labor in Colton Crowing For. years it has been the mental habit of the American people at associ ate cotton production with the idea of negro labor as its sole del endece. This is true to such an extent that most peo ple are under the impression that prac tically the entire American cotton crop is the product of negro toil. As a mat ter of fact, more than half is raised by the white man. The inability of the negro, thus far, to bold his own in com petition with the white man has been demo».strated so often, and in so many ways, that it is no longer a debatable question. The fault is divided be tween the labor union. Northern eco nomic race prejudice, and negro inef ficiency,—in what proportions 1 sbal- not attempt to say. As a cotton-growl er however, his supremacy ret mins un questioned in the popular mind. In investigating this popular fallacy some 13 years ago I reached the conclusion that, although the native Southern white man had always, even during tbe slavery regime, produced a much larg er proportion of the* cotton crop than was commonly believed, ii was not he who was destined seriously to threaten the negro’s hold on this branch of in dustry I believed then, as I believe now, that it is through immigration that the South is to realize the ulti mate development of her almost un touched resour es. I believe that it is merely a question of time when the story of the West is to find its counter part in the Southern States. The ac tion may be artificially retaded or ac celerated. according to the sentiment of the native white man in different parts of the South ; but it can no more be preve* ted than can the final work ing out of any other economic law.— From "Italian Cotton-Growers in Ar kansas,” by Alfred Holt Stone, in the American Monthly Review of Reviews far February. LIFE’S UPS AND DOWNS. The February Everybody’s makes a wide appeal to Americans—to every I one, in fact, who is "awake.” There is ! a remarkable group of six special arti- i cles, and for entertainment seven fic- j tion contributions of the highest order I of excellence. In addition, there are | special drawings, poems and the .usual departments of bookreviewing, humor, and publishers’ "straight talk.” The fiction of the number is by such well- known writers as Will Irwin, editor of McClure.s; Jack London, Thoms W I Lawson, May Heaton Yorse. Richard Henry Little, and several others. The MaKnifleent Revenue of a fSov« ernor of Missouri. While Robert Stewart was govemo* of Missouri a steamboat man was brought in from the penitentiary as ai applicant for a pardon. He was a large powerful fellow, and when the govern or looked at him he seemed strangely affected. He scrutinized him long and closely. Finally he signed the docu ment that restored the prisoner to lib erty. Before he banded it to him he ■aid, “You will commit some other crime and be iu the penitentiary again, I fear.’’ The man solemnly promised that h« would not. Tbe governor looked doubt ful, mused a few minutes and said: “You will go back on the river and be a mate again, I suppose?” The man replied that he would. “Well, I want you to promise me on« thing,” resumed the governor. “I want you to pledge your word that when you ■ re mate again you will never take a billet of wood in your hand and drive a slek boy out of a bunk to help you load your boat on a stormy night.” The steamboat man said he would not and Inquired what the governor meant by asking him such a question. Tne governor replied: “Because some day that bov may become a governor, and you may want him to pardon you for a crime. One dark, stormy night, many years ago, you stopped your boat on tbe Mississippi river to take on a load of wood. There xvas a boy on board who was working his passage from New Orleans to St. I.ouis, but he was very sick of fever and was lying in a bunk. You had plenty of men to the work, but you- went to that boy with a stick of wood in your hand and drove him with blows and curses out into the wretched night and kept him toiling like a slave until the loau was completed. I was that boy. Here if your pardon. Never again be guilty o« such brutality.” Tbe man, cowering and hiding hit face, went out without a word.
