Thanksgiving.
Gov. Mcsweeney yesterday issued
tho following Thanksgiving proclama
tion :
The people of this State have bee ti
abundantly blessed daring the past
year. Gratitude is one nf the Christian
virtues. We should give thanks at all
times. Men too often forget the good
ness of God. Then; should not only bo
gratitude in our hearts, but there ?ire
times whom wo should give visible
evidence and audible expression to
Unit gratitude. Wc have been remark
ably free from pestilence and scourge
We have been permitted to plant and
to garner. Tho rains have conn? ?md
the earth has yielded her fruits and wc
have been allowed to enjoy tho labor
of our hands. We have made progress
in manufacturing th?! product of our
lields and our forests. 11 has long been
customary to take one day out of the
three hundred and sixty-live when we
shall cease from tho tods of our lab?>r
and rentier thanks to the Giver of all
good for the many blessings we receive.
To tho end, therefore, that we may
with thankful hearts show apprecia
tion of the tender care of our Heavenly
Father, 1, M. B. Mcsweeney, governor
of South Carolina, in conformity to
the proclamation of tho president of
the United States, do hereby appoint
and set apart Thursday, the 30th day of
November, 189?, as a day of thanks
giving and prayer to bo kept and ob
served by all the people of this State.
Let all public oflicesbe closed and all
private business and labor of every
kind cease and let the people ??semble
in their accustomed phtces ofwoiohip
and render thanks with grateful hearts
to their Creator and Preserver for the
blessings of lifo nn?l liberty and happi
ness which they daily receive. Let the
pennie on this day also remember the
fatherless and not forget that the poor
and tho needy you have with you al
ways, and that we aro told by Hun who
who made tho great sacrilice for us
that it is moro blessed to give than to
receive, and by our own deeds of char
ity prove the sincerity of our gratitude.
In testimony whereof, 1 have here
unto set my hand and causeil tho great
seal of tho State of South Carolina to
be aOixed. Done at the Capitol, in the
city of Columbia, this 31 st ?lay of
October, A. D. 1899.

Mules for South African War.
CUAIH.ESTON, Nov. 1.-South Caro
lina mules -will be employed in South
Africa against the Boers, and Charles
leston will probably be made a quar
termaster station for the British army.
Mr. George A. Douglas was to-ilay
given a contract by-her majesty's con
sul, Col. Do Coetlogau, to furnish 1,500
head of mules to the government of
Great Britain forwar 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 tho 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 ns fast as a
carload is purchased they will be ship
ped to this city.
Tho 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 no difficulty
in tilling the contract. In purchasing
the mules, Mr. Douglas will contine his
operations to this State ?s far as pos
sible, saos to keep the money spent at
homo. He will probably have to make
frequent trips through tba 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 be paid for them. Pin chase
will be made from one to a hundred or
more.
If the m ules are loaded at Charleston,
on a British transport, it will prove a
big thing for the city, for the supplies
W?l, of course, be purebnsed here,
which will in itself amount to a good
big sum, ns enough will have to bo
purchased to last for some time.

Facts About t??" ?doc?t?onal Fluid.
' Inasmuch as there Is considerable in
terest being manifested in some quar
ters in the amount of dispensary profits
that' have cone to the free schools of
the State.since,tho constitutional pro
vision was.put in some years ago. a
representative ' of tho /State yesterday
looked up tho officiai figures.
The books show that on April 20,
1898, $70?499.55 was distributed to tho
schools of the State. On April 80, 1899,
$07,204.35 wne 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
at last been heard from, will be $19,
483.37, and $5,000 more goes tb the
superintendent of education for normal
institutes, etc. . This amount is to bo
paid in the next few days. .
When all has been paid there will bo
left to the credit of the dispensary
school fund the sum of $43,312.28, and
the schools will havo been paid a total
of $102,187.27. When this year's
amount necessary to make up the $3
per capita has been paid, tho comp
troller will then proceed to distribute
pro rata among the several counties,
according to enrollment, the $43,312.28,
making the grand total paul the schools
$205,499.55.
Exclusive of the school fund, the
State dispensary had in tho State treas
ury yesterday, subject to tho order of
the State board of control, a balance of
$144,491.70. This is the exact status of
tho State's rum business at present, not
taking into account outstanding bills
and warrants.-The State.
Found Big Box of Geld.
JACKSON*, MISS., NOV. 0.-Hunier
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,

iron case, and in gold pieces, nearly all
of them $90 denomination. It *s
thought th o money is a war treasure.

Kural Free Delivery.
WASHINGTON, November 5.-A vigor
ous plea for rurul 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 tar lias resulted i ii iii -
creased postal receipt?, enhancement of
thc value of faun '.amis reached by ru
ral free delivery of from $3 to jw per
nero: a general imnrovomcut ol* the
condition of the roads traversed by thc
rural carrier; better .prices tor tann
products, the producers beiug brought
in daily touch willi thc stau- of the
markets, besides educational benefits
conferred by relieving the monotony
of farm lifo through ready access to
wholesome literature and knowledgoof
current events.
On November 1 rural free delivery
was in successful operation over lliCj
services, radiating over 40 States and
one Territory. Idaho, Wyoming. Miss
issippi and Montana being (lie only
States unreprtvsentc.il.
Between tho beginning of the new
fiscal year, .July I, lMMi, and November,
with an additional expendituroof $150.
000 rural free delivery has boon extend
ed to nearly-iW cents per capita, against
an average per capita cost of ???.H0 in
small towns .of 5,000 population. "It
isa small mutter to a resident ol a
town," says the repent, "to be saved a
walk of a few humtrcd yunis to the
postotlice, while on tho cou y it is a
great accommodation to the .armer to
be spared a drive of live or ten unies
over country roads to get his mail. In
a recent public discussion advocates of
the system who took the value of the
time thus lost iu the busy farming sea
son, at cn!/ tiny cents per bead, lound
tlr.r. their figures ran up into many
millions of dollars lost to the agricul
unal interests through being obliged
to send to the village for tho mails. '
Kural carriers are shortly to be au
thorized to receive ami receipt for let
ters for distribution as city carriers do
now.
Small Mills i?ay Pest.
Tho Wool and Cotton Reporter has
discovered that, the small cotton mills
pay the highest dividends in North
Carolina, and that men who JUC able to
build big mills prefer to put their mony
instead into two or three sinai! ones.
The Springfield Republican remarks:
"The 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 tho part of those
whoso 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. lt 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. We have not
heard anything of it m the last ten
days, but have no doubt that tho big
mills up North that are making no
money would be very glad to use the
small mil's 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 in the South will be over
done. The larger the number of sinall
cotton mills in the South, the greater
the security of the capital already in
vested in these enterprises.-Ncics and
Courier.
