Mcsweeney yesterday issued the following Thanksgiving proclama tion: The people of this State have been abundantly blessed during the past year. Gratitude is one of the Christian virtues. We should give thanks at all times. Men too often forget the good ness of God. There should not only bc gratitude, in our hearts, but there arc times whem we should give visible evidence and audible expression to that gratitude. We have been remark ably free from pestilence and scourge. We have been permitted to plant and to garner. The rains have come and the earth has yielded her fruits and we have been allowed to enjoy th3 labor of our hands. We have made progress in manufacturing the product of our tields and our forests. It has long been customary to take one day out of the three hundred and sixty-five when we shall cease from the toils of our labor and render thanks to the Giver of all good for the many blessings we receive. To the end, therefore, that we may with thankful hearts show apprecia tion of the teDder care of our Heavenly Father, 1, M. B. McSweeney, governor of South Carolina, in conformity to the proclamation of the president of the United States, do hereby appoint and 6et anart Thursday, the30th day of November, 1899, as a dav of thanks giving and prayer to be kept and ob served by all the people of this State. Let all public offices be closed and all private business and labor of every kind cease and let the people assemble in their accustomed places of worship and render thanks with grateful hearts to their Creator and Preserver for the blessings of life and liberty and happi ness which they daily receive. Let the people on this day also remember the fatherless and not forget that the poor and the needy you have with you al ways, and that we are told by Him who who made the great sacrihee for us that it is more blessed to give than to receive, and by our own deeds of char ity prove the sincerity of our gratitude. in testimony whereof, I have here unto set my hand and caused the great seal of the State of South Carolina to be affixed. Done at the Capitol, in ihe city of Columbia, this 31st day of October, A. D. 1S99. M. B. MCSWEEXEY. By the governor : M. R. COOPE::, Secretary of State. Mules for South African War. CHARLESTON, NOV. 1.-South Caro lina mules will be employed in South Africa against the Boers, aud Charles leston will probably bc made a quar termaster statiou for the British army. Mr. George A. Douglas was to-day given a contract by-lier majesty's con sul, Col. De Coetlogan, to furnish 1,300 head of mules to the government of Great Britain for war purposes, to be delivered either in Charleston or Sa vannah. Being a Charlestonian, Mr. Douglas will use his efforts to have this city named as the depot for the delivery of the mules. Mr. Douglas will go to work at once securing the number of mules called for in the contract, and as fast as a carload is purchased they will be ship ped to this city. The work of securing such a number of mules at this season of the year is not an easy task, as the market in this State is short on mules. Later on, how ever, it is thought that the market will be flooded and he will have uo difficulty in tilling the contract. In purchasing the mules, Mr. Douglas will confine his operations to this State as tar as pos sible, so as to keep the money spent at home. He will probably have to make frequent trips through thn State in or der to get the required number called for in the contract. Only first-class mules, sound in every respect, will be received, and a good price will bo paid for them. Purchase will be made from one to a hundred or more. If the mules are loaded at Charleston, on a British transport, it will prove a big thing for the city, for the supplies will, of course, be purchased here, which will in itself amount to a good big sum, as enough will have to be purchased to last for some time. ??pedal tu Thc ti tate. -mm Facts About the Educational Fluid. Inasmuch as there is considerable in terest being manifested in some quar ters in the amount of dispensary profits that have gone to the free schools of the State since the constitutional pro vision was put in some years ago, a representative of tho State yesterday looked up tho official figures. The books show that on April 20, 1898, $70,499.05 was distributed to th*> schools of the State. On April 30, 1899, $07,204.35 wats paid out to the schools by the comptroller general, and now the third payment is about to be made. This amount, all the counties having atlast been heard from, will be $19, 483.37, and ?5,000 more goes to the superintendent of education for normal institutes, cte. This amount is to be paid in thc next few days. When all has been paid there will be left to the credit of thc dispensary school fund the sum of $43,312.28, and the schools will have been paid a total (d' $li?2,187.27. When this years amount necessary to make up thc $3 per capita has been paid, the comp troller will then proceed to distribute; prorata among the several counties, according to enrollment, tim 643,312.28, milking the grund total pani thu schools $205,499.55. Exclusive of thc school fund, the State dispensary hud in the Statt! treas ury yesterday, subject to the order of thc State board of control, a balance of $144,491.70. This is the, exact status of the State's rum business at present, not taking into account outstanding bills and warrants.-Thc State. Found Big Box or Gold. JACKSON, MISS., NOV. 0.-Hunter Johnson, a white citizen of Jackson, while hunting in Pearl river swamp, east of the city several days ago, dis covered a box containing nearly $50, 000.

WASHINGTON-, November 5.-A vigor ous plea for rural free delivery is made in the annual report of First Assistant Postmaster General Perry S. Heath, made public to-night. Mr. Heath says the service so far has resulted in in creased postal receipts, enhancement of the value of farm lands reached by ru ral free delivery of from 82 to $3 per acre; a general improvement of the condition of the roads traversed by the rural carrier; better .prices tor 'farm products, the producers bein:,'brought in daily touch with tho state of the markets, besides educational benefits conferred by relieving the monotony of farm life through ready access to wholesome literature and knowledge of current events. On November 1 rural free delivery was in successful operation over 383 services, radiating over 40 States and one Territory, Idaho, Wyoming, Miss issippi and Montana being the only States unrepresented. Between tho beginning of thc new fiscal year, July 1, 1899-, and November, with an additional expenditure of $130. 000 rural free delivery has been extend - ed to nearly 84 centspcr capita, against an average! per capita cost of 82.80 in small towns of 5,000 population. "It is a small matter to a resident of a town," says the report, "to be saved a walk of a few hundred yards to the postofiice, while on the contrary it is a great accommodation to the farmer to be spared a drive of five or ten miles over country roads to get his mail. In a recent public discussion advocates of the system who took the value of thc time thus lost in the busy farming sea son, at only fifty cents per head, found that their figures ran up into many millions of dollars lost to the agricul tural interests through being obliged to send to the village for thc mails.'* Rural carriers are shortly to bc au thorized to receive and receipt for let ters for distribution as city carriers do now. ' Small Mills Pay Best. The Wool and Cotton Reporter has discovered that the small cotton mills pay the highest dividends in North Carolina, and that men who ore able to build big mills prefer to put their mony instead into two or three small ones. The Springfield Republican remarks: "Thc argument of experience, any more than that of theory, is not wholly on the side of large concentration of capital. This has its great advantages, but there are offsetting factors such as a loss of efficiency and close economy in operation from the lack of close per sonal supervision on the part of those whose property is at stake." That is au encouraging view to take in this day of great combinations and trusts when the little fellow is so often squeezed out. It has only been a little; while since a proposition was seriously made by some of the New England manufacturers to combine all the cot ton mills in the country. Wc have not heard anything of it in the last ten days, but have no doubt that the big mills up North that are making no money would bc very glad to use the small mills down South to help them out of a hole. The total cotton crop of this country is all sold every year, either at home or abroad. As long as there is a demand for raw cotton, there will be room for cotton mills near the cotton fields, and for this reason there is no danger whatever that cotton mill construction iu the South will be over done. The larger the number of small cotton mills in the South, the greater thc security of the capital already in vested in these enterprises.-News and Courier. Scaley s Visit to the South. ATLANTA, GA., November 5.-Rear Admiral Schley, who was welcomed to Atlanta yesterday, spent a quiet day here to-day. No programme was ar ranged and he, with thc members of his party, were allowed to utilize the time in attending services at the Epis copal Cathedral and a drive over the city and a visit to relatives. Bishop Nelson, of Georgia, officiated at the services and the Holy Communion was served. Mrs. Schley accompanied the Admiral here. In the afternoon, under thc auspices of thc Royal Arcanum of this city, thc distinguished guest and party were given a drive over thc city. Fort Walker at Grant Park was visited, and also McPherson barracks, where the United States garrison is stationed. Admiral Schley was given an ovation by the soldiers. The party was entertained at lunch eon by Judge J. Schley Hook alter the drive, and a large unmber of friends and relatives of the hero expressed their admiration of his splendid record at Santiago. After returning to their hotel the party later in the evening boarded their special car, where they remained for the night.
