YELLOW [Remarkable History It is not necessary to take a trip to Klondike or to wend your way to the mountains of the far west to find the gold fields. They lie close to home. It may provea surprise to many to know that gold in quantities of a pay ing nature are being every day taken from the rocksonear McCormick, S. C., and that the wells of McDuffie county, Ga., wait for the man who will put in the necessary machinery to bring forth the yellow metal. Even the sand of Rae's creek has gold in it and the bed of the Savannah holds grains of the oniferons substance. . Men in the past have worked these places and added to their store of gain by finding gold. The McCormick mine has a most interesting history. To hear of the ups and downs of the men who first discovered gold there, one should get Mr. Wm. Howard, of the Great Eastern Shoe Company, to tell the story to them, fie was inter viewed by the Herald man and here is his story of the Old Dorn gold mine : Lighting s cigar, Mr. Howard be gan. "Way. back yonder in the early fif ties old Billy Dom owned much land near McCormick. * He discovered' that gold was in the soil. That was after ne had returned from a fruitless search for the yellow metal in Calif or ' nia, having gone out there with the many in the days of '49, when the J7iad rush of the gold seekers took r place. Among those who went was . Mr. Joseph Bell, who visited Mr. Dora shortly after the latter had started mining near McCoi nick in a crude way, using such impleiuuuts as he could find to get out the gold from tho sandi of Persimmon Branch, nearby. Mr. Boll tried to persuade Mr. Dorn to put in a tanning plant, but the old man 'decided to. toil on in his crude way taking out more gold than on? would suppose. "Bell had learned scientific mining in Calif ornia and saw that not only was there gold in the creek, but that there was gold a plenty in the many mks that lay about. In fact they weie literally filled with the precious metal. It was what miners called in visible gold. To get the gold out a crusher was needed. The rooks had to be ground up finely and the par ticles washed and put through certofo o?mer processes before any pure gold could- be obtained. "Finally Bell didjpersuade old man Dorn to;go in with him and procure a pounding mill. The mill was erected or the branch and the rooks hauled to it by n-eans of steer teams. The idea was a good one, the gold in the rocks was obtained in large quantities. The tw) men got out from $500 to $1,000 - worth of gold per day. "Dorn got enormously rich. He had discovered that he had a veritable Klondike, or that is what he would have called it had he lived ip this day. "Hea wasj -most generous with his new-found wealth. None asked aid bot what were given freely. He helped |build many churches, gave funds towards all kinds of missionary work, paid all the debts of his rela tives and|lived in a simple way with all his'wealth. "When all the'rocks near about had been used, it was found that the foun dation stones of several negro cabins on Persimmon Branch were the stones that contained gold. Dorn came to the cabins and thejrock was ground up. One'[chimney composed of the stones panned out $1,000 worth of gold. "Theiideaof sinking a shaft and mining underground then was sugges ted and .?Mr. Dorn and his partner sunk a shaft and wurked towards the south of the creek. They did not dis cover so much gold in this way as he had otherwise, and it never occurred to them to work north of the creek. "Mr.oDorn finally sold the mining land to Mr.JMcCormick, the inventor of the McCormick reaper. The 1,200 acres brought [$25,000, a small price considering the go?d there, but Dorn was of the belief shat the land had been worked out. The ways of fate are strange and Dorn died a bankrupt, having paid too*many debts of other people? He may be said to have given his immense wealth away broadcast. Several efforts were made to work the land for?goldj by others aftxr Dom's death, but none seemed to understand getting at thejprecious ore. "Bruce & Co. worked it a bit, but gave up. They said it did not pay. They had been miners in California, but had not learned like Messrs. Dorn and Bell to find gold in the earth about Persimmon Branch. "Recently a new firm has taken hold of the mining lands and arc meeting with great success. They work where Mr. Dorn never thought to-on the north side of the creek. They have struck rich ore, have put in improved machinery from a joint stock company and are making Mc Cormick a Klondike on a small scale. Au expert has prospected for miles STUFF. . of the Dorn Mines. around the place and says that there is gold in large quantities all about there. The ones DOW working the land are Dunlap and Beegs. Dunlap has had much experience in mining matters and Beegs Ts furnishing the money to equip and run the plant. The gold lands extend for 25 miles around McCormick, ?tis said. The veins run across the Savannah into Lincoln county, where discoveries of gold have been made lately. It is said that enough has been taken out of the rocks by the owners, who re cently bought property on the vein, to pay for the land. They own 250 acres. The owners are J. Frank & Son, of this city, dealers in farm lands. They have specimens of ore on exhibition here. t!There is also gold near Calhoun Falls, S. C. j but has not been much worked." Mr. Howard tells of a party who lived in "West End some years ago, who found gold in, the bed of Kae s creek. The party, Mr. Hook by name, would get from $1 to $1.50 worth of gold oat of the creek almost every day or so. He understood how to find the valuable substance, and al though many others tried to follow his example, they never succeeded in finding gold in the sand. Then there was Bob Todd, who lived in Hamburg, who found gold in the Savannah, but in very small amounts. He gave up in disgust just after the war. The late Gen. Summers, of this city, found gold in McDuffie county, and from what can be learned, parties now are at work up that way seeking whai. ?? in the soil of an oniferous nature. But the Old Dorn raine leads them all in output, as can be seen by the traveler on the C. & W. C. road as he passes McCormick. The old crushing mill is in ruins, but on the other side of Persimmon Branch the new plant is grinding the gold from the brown rocks.-G. W. Reab in Augusta Her ald. For the Housewife. Baw cabbage is much more diges tible than when cooked. A cabbage salad made from a raw, fresh and crisp head of cabbage, and served with a French dressing, is much improved if garlic is rubbed in the bowl from which it is served. A cold tomato sauce excellent for cold meats is made from peeled whole tomatoes from which the seeds are pressed out. The tomatoes are then chopped and afterward strained, the mixture put in a bowl and seasoned with salt, a little onion juice, lemon juice, a dash of cayenne and a little olive oil. The use of peppercorns in lieu of ground pepper is to be recommended. Thrown into a soup or stew or simmer of any kind, they produce the flavor without any digestive irritation. The corns, as they are called, are simply the grain or berry of the plant before being ground to the pulverized pepper of commerce. Splendid soft gingerbread is made with one cup of good molasses, one half cup of water, one-half cup of but ter, one-half teaspoonful of ginger, one-half teaspoonful of soda or sa; a ratus, two cups of flour, two eggs and a pinch of salt. Bake in square tins and cut in squares. Cut the squares open and put in bits of preserved gin ger, and cover each square with frost ing. A medical journal advises against the excessive use of salt. It is first of all a perversion of taste, the condi ment destroying thc flavor of delicate dishes if too pronounced. Further more, it is asserted that an excessive use of salt seriously overtaxes the kidneys to remove it, and that many cases of derangement and diseases are due to this excessive use. The salt habit, it is added, is easily acquired, and persons indulging themselves soon reach a point where nothing is pala table that is not strongly impregnated with salt. The secret of washing well any woolen goods lies chiefly in having the different waters of equal temperature, with none of them at any time too hot to put the hand in comfortably. So;.p should not be rubbed on the article, but used in the form of thin suds. It should be a good white soap, too. A little borax is probably the best thing to soften the water. For washing blankets or baby flannels it is to bc preferred. Woolens should not be wrung by the hand, but rinsed or dried by squeezing. Woolens of any sort should never be allowed to freeze.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-Mr. Wu, the I Chinese minister, received a cable j gram from Pekin this morning. No allusion was made to the death of the - emperor, although it referred to the banishment of Chang Yen Hoon, his predecessor here. He is, therefore, disinclined to believe the newspaper dispatches, although he would not be surprised to learn that his sovereign is dead. Minister Conger has notified the department of State that the em peror is ill, but has sent nothing to confirm the newspaper reports of his death. Both Mr. Wu and Col. Denby are very skeptical as to the story of the emperor's assassination. No emperor of China was ever as sassinated, so far as history goes. The dignity and sanctity of his person makes such a thing almost impossible, except by a maniac, but suicide is a frequent method of escaping disgrace and humiliation. Several emperors have died by their own hand. Hwai Tsung, the last emperor of the Ming dynasty, killed himself because he was deposed by the Manchus, the 1 family of the present monarch, who j are known as the Tsings. Offenders are often allowed to com mit suicide to save their honor. This ' privilege was granted to Prince Chin I in 1861, when he was held responsible for the British invasion. Tseng, the oommander of the Chinese fleet, com mitted suicide in 1895 to cover the [ humiliation of his defeat by the ! Japanese, and only a few month*? ago j one of the most prominent ministers was given hia choice between suicide and banishment. Suicide is not a disgrace; it is often used as a means of revenge. The se verest punishment a man can inflict upon an enemy is to commit suicide in .his house or upon his doorstep, be cause a curse will always hang over it, and if Kuaug Hsu wanted to punish his aunt, the dowager, for deposing him, he could select no more effective method of making her miserable than to take his own life in her presence or in her apartment. For a similar reason the assassina tion of the emperor would not be de sirable by his enemies or his succes sors. lu the first place the whole people of China, from the emperor down to the most ignorant coolie, are in perpetual and irresistible bondage to the Fung Shuy, the spirits of the dead, who retain their interest and activity in the affairs of the living and exercise an overpowering influence over the minds, the acts and the for tunes of men. This is the secret of ancestral wor ship. It is the theory that the great er influence a man exercises in life the more power his spirit will have over the destinies of mankind after death. Therefore, shrines are erected to great men by those who want their favor, just as we erect monuments in thiB country. The emperor of the "son of heaven; the king of kings." While he is liv ing his person is so sacred that no one except those authorized may touch him without suffering the penalty of death. People are not permitted to look upon him. When his ministers approach the throne they bow their heads to the floor and address1 him on their hands and knees. When he passes along the streets of Pekin screens of matting are hung in front of all the houses and shops. Although there is no doubt a good deal of peep ing, those who are guilty would un doubtedly bc punished if found out. When he dies the emperor ascends amoDg the gods where he continues to be a source of good and evil, and even such a rugged old iconoclast as Li Hung Chang would not take the chan ces of his interference with his plans. Besides that thc emperor's successor is required to worship him. The same obligation rests upon thc court, and it would be a little difficult to worship a man you had assassinated. Nevertheless the Chinese are pro gressing rapidly in modern ideas. Rev erence for their sovereign is moderat ing and assassination may have come in with innovations. At the same time it is difficult to attribute any motive for the empress dowager to murder her nephew. He has always been submissive to her. He has never resisted her will nor disobeyed her injunctions, aud she knows exactly what she can do with him, whereas Prince P'u Wei, the grandson of the late Prince Kung, who is said to have been selected for the throne, has a very different character and disposi tion. Instead of being weak and va cillating and obedient to a woman's will, he is a vigorous, independent, high-spirited and ambitious young man, who is not likely to work well in harness. He will make the dowager a great deal more trouble than Kuang Hsu ever did, and it is doubtful whether she will be able to control him at all after he becomes accustom ed to the exercise of power and gets a firm grip on his scepter. His grandfather, Prince Kung, who died last May, was the most powerful and able statesman in the empire dur ing his generation, and filled what corresponds to the prime minister in other nations for more than 40 years. When Hien Fung died childless in 1871 it was proposed to place Tsai Chang, the son of Prince Kung, upon the throne, but it was deemed in the highest degree inexpedient because it would necessitate the withdrawal of Prince Kung from official life. Tsai Chang is a strongman, like his father, and P'u Wei, his son, who is now 19 or 20 years of age, is said to be very much like him. Prince Kung was the pioneer in progress, but he was wise and prudent and restrained the more radical reform ers. If he had lived, Kang, the reckless Cantonese adviser of the em peror, would never have brought about the trouble that has recently occurred. The story thatTsi An, the empress dowager, was once a barmaid is inter esting but untrue. Likewise the yarn that was printed some time ago about her rescue from drowning by Li Hung Chang when she was a slave and he a young soldier. In the first place there are no barmaids in China. In the second place, Tsi An and her sister, Tsu An, were the daughters of a Man chu general, and she never saw or heard of Li Hung Chang until long after she was married to the emperor Hien Fung and Li came to Pekin to receive his reward for putting down the Tai Ping rebellion. During the first years of the regency he made himself very useful to her. She re cognized his ability and harnessed him to her chariot. It is equally untrue that the em press dowager is opposed to progress. She is the most progressive woman in China. It was largely through her influence that the Burlingame embassy was sent out to open up connection between China and the world in 1870, and that in 1872 Yung Wing and 30 other Chinese boys were sent to the United States to be educated. She has beeb the most active and consist ent supporter of Li Hung Chang ever since he began to introduce modern notions, and it has been from her that he has received his greatest encour agement. There is no doubt that Chang Yen Hoon, the former protege and recent rival of Li Hung Chang in the tsung li-yamen, has been banished to Iii, over in the interior of Asia, on the borders of Turkestan. There is no mystery about that, and it might have been expected for several reasons. He is a Cantonese and the empress is a Manchu. There is a hereditary hatred between the two races, which are as different as the Sweeds and Spaniards. He is a partisan of Eng land; she is a partisan of Bussia. He was born a patron of Kang, the Can tonese reformer, who has made all the trouble and undoubtedly assisted him to escape.
