Sometimes we stand on the seashore and look out over the ocean. As far as the eye can reach there is one great expanse of water. The rolling waves, which lash the shore and dash ana tremble among the rocks, seem to lose their motion and grow restful as they near the line of the horizon, and the vessels which rise and fall on the waves appear as quiet as the stable rocks. We cannot realize that the great sea is cut in every direction by mighty rivers which flow on steadily yet irresistibly, each pushing its course and pushing its way through tranquil and troubled waters. Mariners tell us that while they are able to distinguish the place and movement of many ocean currents by the color and temperature of the water, some flow far beneath the surface of the sea., and in directions which deceive many an experienced sailor. It is very important to understand the movement of these hidden ocean rivers, that vessels be not led out of their course and fail to reach their desired haven. So in the great ocean of life there are upper and nether powers which are constantly at work, and he who does not in some measure understand them will be deceived and led into false views of history, and of the times in which he lives. We observe the movements of -the age, and tremble for the old Bible, which is handled with so little rever? ence and criticised with so much reck? lessness, and we forget the undercur? rent of increased love for the Book and continued gain jn the circulation of its pages, We grow despondent over what we call loose thinking and disregard of Church ties, and forget the stronger feeling of brotherhood and fuller sym? pathy which is building the followers of Christ in philanthropic work re? gardless of denominational affiliations. We mourn over Sabbath desecration, and shake our heads in dark forebod? ing of the future when we observe the secularization of God's holy day, and fail to note that the sacred hours are being transfigured by increased activi? ty for Christ, and the Church is utili? zing the time, as-never before, in res? cue and structure work. We dread the power of the saloon, and prophesy evil as we read of mon? eyed combinations in the interest of breweries and distilleries, and disre? gard the evident growth of public sen? timent against the liquor traffic which in time will banish the saloon from the land. Yes, there are currents and under? currents, and the Christian mariner must in a measure understand both. In the turmoil and uncertainty of the times we are apt to look at the surface of things, and leave out of our thought the prophecies and promises of God. Just so surely as iniquity abounds, just so surely does the Spirit work, and the time is coming when the nations of the world will acknowledge Christ to be the Lord. Let no true Christian hang his head and talk with whining voice about the Word of God being destroyed, the Church rained, the Sabbath lost and the saloon triumphant. Despondency does not become a child of the King : it is rather his place to be up ana doing with a faith which knows no doubt, a hope which acknowledges no defeat, and a love which works with? out fear.?Rev. DwigTit E. Marvin, in the Ram's Horn. Making Condensed Milk. In 1888 Switzerland exported 11,770 tons of condensed milk, a quantity equal to 520:000 boxes, or just about 24,000,000 tins. The process of con? densed milk manufacture is exceed? ingly simple. Almost every village in the district tapped by one of the factories possesses a milk-collecting office, to which the peasants bring the milk fresh from the cow. These milk offices are owned by separate compan? ies, with whom the factories contract for their supplies. At the collecting office the milk undergoes a refrigera? ting process. Upon its arrival at the factory it is first warmed gently over a vapor bath, and then exposed to a greater heat (not, however, exceeding eighty deegrees C.) in copper vessels. The next manipulation consists in the addition to the milk of thirteen per cent., by weight, of the best refined sugar. The mixture is then pumped into a vacuum pan for condensation. There is nothing special about these vacuum pans; they are of the kind used at almost every manufacturing chemist's, in sugar factories, and in many other works. ^ The pans have a false bottom and are fitted with spiral hot water tubes. The aqueous vapor given off by the milk, which is kept boiling under low pressure, is withdrawn through the suction pump at the top of the pan. When sufficiently condensed, the milk is withdrawn from the pans, cooled in vessels placed in fresh running water, packed in one pound tins, and nermet rically sealed. " ? m ? ?? Help Yourself. Fight your own battles. Hoe your own row. Ask no favors of anyone, and. you'll succeed five thousand times better than one who is always beseech? ing some one's patronage. No one will ever help you as you help your? self, because no one will be so heartily interested in your affairs. The first step will not be such a long one per? haps; but, carrying your own way up the mountain, you make each one lead to another, and stand -firm in that while you chop another out. Men who have made fortunes are not those who had $5,000 given them to start with, but started fair with a well earned dollar or two. Men who have by their own exertions acquired fame have not been thrust into popularity by puffs begged or paid for, or given on friendly spirit. They have out? stretched their hands and touched the public heart. Men who win love to do their own wooing, and I never knew a man to fail as signally as one who had induced his affectionate grandmamma to speak a good word for him. Whether you work for fame, for love, for money, or for anything else, work with your hands, heart and brain. Say, "I will," and some day you will conquer. Never let any man have it to say, "I have dragged you up." Too many friends hurt a man more than none at all.? Grace Green wood. _?

The shipment of cotton, compressed by a new method, made from Waco, Texas, arrived in Boston recently. It was the largest single carload of baled cotton that has ever come into Bos? ton, and consisted of one hundred and twelve bales. They weighed 53,000 pounds, and it is stated that fifteen more bales could have been squeezed into the car. The average capacity of a box car is 50,000 pounds, so that this load of cotton overrun the stand? ard by 3,000 pounds, and is estimated to be 30 per cent more than is put in the same space when the bales are packed in the old-fashioned way. According to the Boston Journal of Commerce, the increased capacity is produced by what is termed the Bes sonnctte compress, a new method of baling cotton recently patented. By this method the bales arc made round. They are about four feet two inches in length and two feet in diameter, with an average weight of about five hundred pounds, and are intended to, take the place of the old-time box bales. By this method the cotton is taken from the condenser and is roll? ed into a cylindrical bale, being com? pressed as it is rolled up. The air is thus forced out of the thin layer or mat, as it comes out of the condenser, and is kept out by being rolled be? tween two ponderous rollers of several tons each. The inventor claims many advantages in cost and protection of the fibre, and cotton men think this Bystem of round baling will, in a great measure, revolutionize the exporting industry. While seventy-five or eighty of the old box bales will com? pletely fill a car, it is claimed that one hundred and fifteen or more of the round can be stuffed into a car. The car came in over the New York and New England Railroad, and there were a number of cotton and shipping men to inspect the novelty, as it was the first car load of the kind ever shipped North. Of course the in? creased capacity must be gained from the round bale permitting a denser compression, so as to give a much greater weight, foot for foot, to com? pensate for the loss in storage capaci? ty possessed" by the square bale. ? The church at West Deer Isle, Me., started from a hen's egg. The people had long felt the need of a church edifice, and finally a meeting of those interested was called to con? sider the question of ways and means. One of the party?a lady?brought a hen's egg as a contribution, that be? ing the only donation in that gathering. The gift was accepted, other donations followed, and the church was built. ?

After a careful consideration of the question, the Emperor of Germany and the Berlin war office have now decided that artificial teeth are to be provided free of charge to the soldiers on the ground that the troops are better able to render good service with sound grinders than with teeth which either ache or are inadequate to the performance of their work of mastlfication. ? In Chicago, the other day. Willie Johnson, aged eleven, took all the mon? ey and jewels he could find at home and eloped with Maud Cooper, aged nine. They went to a minister and asked him to perform the marriage ceremony. The astonished preacher called a policeman, and Willie ran away. A few hoors later Willie returned to his home, very crestfallen, with only 65 cents in his pock? et. ? There is so much wheat and the price is so low in the Northwest this sea? son that many farmers are leaving their wheat standing. In Spokane County, Oregon, there are a number of fields of wheat, ranging between one and two hundred acres each, and yielding eigh? teen or twenty bushels to the acre, which the owners will not cut, as the returns would not cover the cost of har? vesting. ? The talk about "hard times,'' of which the country has recently beard so much, does not seem to have reached the ears of the board of missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which is now in annual session in Brooklyn. It is appropriating more that a million dol? lars for carrying on its work in foreign mission fields next year, and this great sum is only one item in the long list of the expenditures for which Ameri? can Methodists provide from year to year. ? Senator Sherman was interviewed in Washington on Monday about the prob? able work of Congress and said: "It is too early to say what the Republican Congress may do. It is upward of a year till the 54th Congress meets. In that time conditions may change and render present policies inexpedient and impracticable. There is small likelihood of an extra session. A Democratic President is not prone to call together a Republican Congress in ex? traordinary session, except in case of ex? treme emergency. Whether the Repub? licans will modify the present tariff laws or pass a new measure is a matter of fu? ture determination. No one one can tell. I know there is some talk of se? lecting a Western man, but there is really nothing to divide the West from the East on that proposition.

Orangehurg, Nov. 10.?Since our worthy county treasurer was assassinated two attempts at night time have been made to rob people on the way home. Several days ago a white man was held np and shot at in Four Holes swamp, and now comes the report that the Messrs. Filder, two highly respected young men, were forced in this same swamp to give up all their money at the point of two double-barrelled shot guns, pointed directly at their heads. As a matter of faot, they gave up everything that they were in possession of, which was $50 In bills and currency. The young men had pistols with them, but the sud? den command from the thick swamp came: "Halt, throw up your hands." As they peered forward two glittering guns were pointed directly at them. They threw up their hands, and the lerutal, cowardly assassins came forward mask? ed, and while one kept his gun cooked on them the other rifled their pockets of the contents, which was the amount stated above. The young men are poor, and sold three bales of cotton on the day of the robbery.?Special to Columbia State. Deadly Quarrel Over a Potato. Augusta, Ga., Nov. 17.?Robert Cain, alias Robert Toombs, was shot to death at McBean Station last afternoon. He was 50 years of age. Yesterday morning, so the testimony before the coroner de? clared, Cain entered Winter's store at McBean and placed a sweet potato on the stove to bake. He then went out and when he came back the potato was broken in two. With an oath* he demanded to know who did it. Young Winter, 18 years of age, acknowledged that he had (lone so, but said that it was a mistake, he was sorry and would give him another potato. But this did not satisfy Cain, who cursed a great deal and was finally ordered to leave the store by Winter. Before departing he told Winter next time they met one or the other would have to die. Later several negroes warn? ed young Winter to look out, that Cain had sworn to kill him. In the afternoon they met and Cain reopened the quarrel, finally advancing on Winter with open knife. He would not halt, though warn? ed to do so, and Winter drew his pistol and fired. Cain was shot through tho lung and died in ten minutes. The coro? ner's jury after hearing all the evidence returned a vordict that tho killing was done in self-defence and entirely justifia? ble.? Special to Sunday News. Backlens Arnica Salve.

Knocks ont Bookmaklng, St. Louis, Mo., November 15.?A de? cision has been rendered by an East St. Louis justice of the peace, which, if sus? tained by the higher courts, will knock out bookmakingand race tracks through? out the State or Illinois, and possibly in many other States. The ruling was made in a suit instituted in Justice James A. Wyatt's court in East St. Louis by E. H. Ba'rnes. Barnes claims to have lost ?184 at the East Side track during Octo? ber, 1894. When the case was tried he produced losing tickets representing the amount he claimed to have lost and suc? ceeded in convincing the judge of the truth of his statement, whereupon a de? cision was rendered in his favor. The defendants offered no witnesses to dis? prove the truth oi bis statement and aside from contending that they had a right to keep money won from the public on the ground that the public would keep money won from them, they made no de? fense whatever. Judge Wyatt said that his decision in the case was strictly in compliance with the State statute govern? ing such cases, which defines clearly that a person, upon proving that he has lost an amount equal to or more than ?10 upon any gambling device whatever, can obtain the full amount lost from the par? ties receiving tho same, and if not from them, from the lessees or owners of the property upon which such games were conducted. A similar case has been com? promised by the track people, but this will be carried up. A Remarkable Revulsion. On Tuosday, November Ctb, the Re? publicans carried Hamilton County, Ohio, by 22,000 majority. They supposed naturally that they had complete control there and would hold it a Long time. Last Tuesday, just one week after the congressional contest, there was a special election in Hamilton county, and, behold! the mighty Repub? lican majority of seven days before van? ished and the Democrats carried the day by 3,300, electing their candidate for judge of the insolvency court. This is one of the most remarkable political revulsions that has ever occur? red in Ohio. Cincinnati frequently votes for one party at one election and for the other at the next trial. In that city, as in the country at large, there is a great independent element. Neither the Re fiublicans nor the Democrats have abso ute control there, and the same thing may be said of tho country. The time has passed when it is only necessary to appeal to voters to stand by the "good old Democratic party" or "the grand old Republican party." There are several million voters in the United States who belong to no party, and they bold the balance of power. Tbey vote for the party and the candidates in whom they have most confidence. They are a constant and healthy menace to all par? ties, a conservative influence and a re? liable safeguard of our institutions.? Atlanta Journal, 16th inst. Murdered on the Streets. Dula, Miss., November 16.?Jacob W. Harman, mayor oi this town, and Henry Lawrence, a leading jeweller here, were assassinated in the street at noon by John W. Boyd, overseer of the Van Ealon plantation, and his younger brother, Bob. A year ago Mayor Harman and the elder Boyd had a dispute and several shots were fired, since which time bad blood had existed between them. Yes? terday afternoon Mayor Harman met John W. Boyd in the street, drew his pistol and beat him over the head with it. To-day the Boyd brothers come into town armed with rifles. At noon, Har? man and Lawrence walked up the street to dinner, the Boyd brothors confronted them and opened fire. Harman drew his revolver and fired a couple of shots ineffectually. Both he and Lawrence were killed on the spot. The elder Boyd escaped on horseback the younger on foot. They Bent word that they would surren? der to the sheriff, but to no one else. The two men killed were 35 years old. The elder Boyd is 25 and the younger is 18. Died for Lotc Athens, Ga., Nov. 13.?At the door of the home of her whom he loved and yet whom he could never win, lav the pros? trate and dying form of Mr. William Mo Einnon last night. The last time had he implored the young lady to give him her hand in mar? riage, and, failing, had swallowed the deadly drug that sent his'old soul into eternity. It seems that Mr. McEinnon, who was about twenty-two years of age, falling in love with Miss Hattie Sailors, a pretty young lady living in East Athens, but she did not reciprocate his attentions, alleging as her reason his dissipated habits. Time and again, it is said, he asked her hand in marriage, and was as many times refused. Then he commenced brooding over his troubles and last night drank nearly two ounces of laudanum. As the drug was beginning to take effect his mind involuntarily wandered to the little cottage where lived the one being around whom were centered all the affections of his ardent and youthful na? ture. And his footsteps turned in that direc? tion. As he walked on the powerful drug took deeper and deeper effect, and as he entered the gateway through which he had often bounded with swelling heart and elastic step, he reeled and fell heavily upon the doorsteps. The noise brought the inmates of the house to the door, and in a few moments tbey bad sent word to some friends to summon a physician. Dr. Quillian responded and worked with the unfortunate young man for several hours in a vain attempt to coun? teract the effects of the deadly drug. Mr. McEinnon breathed bis last about four hours after taking the laudanum. The funeral will occur to-morrow morn? ing and the remains of the unfortunate young man will be laid to rest in Ooonee cemetery. Mr. McKinncn was a hard-working young mechanio, but dissipated. ?

The Cotton Growers, Montgomery, Ala. , Nov. 14.?The cotton growers' convention reassembled to-day and organized an association national in its scope for the better pro? tection of planters'interests. The committee on statistics was in? structed to obtain and arrange for the use of the convention official statistics of cot? ton, the prices, etc., for the past ten years. The president of the convention, Com? missioner Lane, of Alabama, read a state? ment showing by the census returns that resolutions on the part of planters to restrict acreage have been followed by a decreased output of cotton. Resolutions of tho committee and special resolutions subsequently offered and adopted by the convention, cover the following subjects: 1. Reduction of cotton acreage and in? creased attention to production of cereals. 2. Greater attention to stock and cattle raising. 3. Encouragement of manufacturing in the South by exempting manufactories from taxation for a period of ten years. 4. Encouragement of immigration, res? olutions advising that large plantations be divided into small farms and the latter be sold to bona fide home seekers. 5. Recommendation that cotton be withheld for sale by farmers who are not in debt to their factors, and that it be held for a rise?"which may reasonably be expected if the present heavy receipts are appreciably reduced." <). The organization of the Cotton Plant? ers' Association of the United States of America to meet at least twice a year and to consist of four delegates from each congressional district in the cotton grow? ing States and three delegates at large from each State appointed by governors of such States, irrespective of party pre? ference. Said association is to hold its first meeting in Jackson, Miss., the second Wednesday in January, 1895. 7. Cotton seed trusts condemned. 8. Congress petitioned to pass the anti option bill. 9. Congress to be requested to refund the cotton tax collected in lSfW^-1807. The convention then organized the new association by electing officers to serve until the January meeting as follows: Governor James Stone, of Mississippi, president; Hon. J. 0. Waddell, of Geor? gia, and commissioner of agriculture for tbe cotton growing States, vies president; Robert E. Eckeberger, of Alabama, sec? retary, and Professor James Smith, of Georgia, treasurer. The chairman of the convention was re? quested to issue an address to all busi? ness interests asking co-operation in ob? taining the objects of the association. The following resolution was adopted: "Resolved, That tho honest conviction of this convention as practical cotton growers is that tbe estimates that are Being sent out by the cotton exchanges in reference to the crop are excessive, and it is the belief of this convention, based upon practical observation and best statistical information, that the present crcp will not exceed 8,500,000."

OY, Nov. 17.?There was a deplorable accident on the trolley car line in frcnt of Wright's hotel on Main street here at 5.15 this afternoon resulting in the infliction of injuries sure to prove fatal to Miss Dora McLain. Miss McLain, an accomplished young lady of 17, is a student of the Winthrop school for teachers located here and her home is in Cheraw. At the time of the accident she was attempting to cross parallel car lines. She waited until a car south bound passed and stepped for? ward to the next track .when at the same moment a car speeding from the opposite direction struck her, hurled ber forward on the track and passed over her body. Two ladies who were with her narrowly escaped the same fate, the car scraping their drosses. Miss McLain was fearfully mangled and bruised, both legs being broken. She was carried to the hospital and re? ceived the best surgical attention but no hopes of her surviving are indulged. Sheds supposed to be badly hurt inter? nally. She retained consciousness and bore up splendidly for a time after the accident. Motorman W. B. Moore was on the car which caused the accident and after its occurrence deserted his car. An hour later he was arrested in the southern part of the city. Opinions differ as to the motorman's responsibility, some eye witnesses de? claring that he was going at an inexcusa? bly high rate of speed while others say that it was in no degree his fault. The greatest sympathy is expressed for the unfortunate young lady and news of the affair spreading through the city has caused a general wave of sadness. $> PRICE 50 CENTS PER BOTTLE. * LDOOX OF VALUABLE INFORMATION FREE.
