A newspaper published in Flanders states that "the daily con Isumption of a workingman-not a !drunkard--there includes at 5:30 a. in., a 'worm-killer;' at 8 a. in., an 'eye ?opener;' at 11 a. in., a 'whip;' at 2 p. in., a 'digester;' at 5 p. in., a 'soldier,' ant ag0..Jm a 'finum--'"Tha regalar yearly expenditure, without ~counting extras on festive occasions. amount to 219 francs, 800 to 1,200 * rancs being the usual wages. - ELECTRICAL LIGHT. o@W It Affects flowers, Vegetables and Other Plants IFrom time to time, of late years. ex periments have been made of the effect of the electrical light on flowers and K plants, with resalts seemingly the same, to wit, feeble efforts of some plants to prolong their periods of bloom into the night and then pre mature decay. One has only to study their actions, as observed, to conclude that even plants need rest, or. to be more precise, they seem to thrive best under the conditions which nature has imposed--the period of darkness and the period of the light, which is heat as well; or else that the family of plants, as now they are, sprung from these exact con ditions, and will not thrive without them. It is the nature of some flowers, as every one knows, to open at oine period of light and close at another; of others to open only at night and close - before or at the moment when the orb of day tops the horizon. So strictly do some of these follow their unwritten laws that floral clocks have been con structed, so that one may step out into his garden, of a bright day or clear night, and learn the time by the con dition of bloom on the floral dial. Prof. Wollney, of Munich, satisfied by experiment that electrical light will not advance or improve plant growth, recently tried the effect upon them of the current itself. We quote the fol lowing, being the means employed and its result: He "took patches of ground twelve or thirteen feet square, separate'd by boards penetrating the earth to the depth of a foot. In one case he ap ptied two earth plates and interposed five earth cells; in another he inserted an induction apparatus; and in a third, a plate of copper at one side and a plate of zinc at the other side to form a natural battery. Peas, potatoes, car rots, etc., were planted on these and other patches, but the electrcity, whether of high or low potential. seemed to have either no influence or a bad one upon their growth." Plants being full of sap. and sap a fairly good conductor. every fiber must have been reached, and, so far as the Trofessor was enabled to perceive, the only effect of the cu? rent was to pro yoke a pert urbation on the protoplasm. e-Sienstific American., .. *-Gov. Lee.s Private Secretairy Commits suicide'. RICHMOND Va.. Feb. 7.-Captain James E. Waller, private secretary to Governor Lee, was found dead in his office at the State Capitol building this morning, with a bullet bole in the right side of his head. A Smith & Wesson pistol lay on the floor. The deceased was 32 'years of age and a native of Stafford County. No cause is assigned. The Treasuryv accepted $485,000 four and a half per cent. bonds at 109. An other tender of $2,700,000 at 109t, in a BOLD BURGLARY AT LEXINGTON. The Store of Meetze & Co.. Only a Few Yard' front the 4 ourt House, Broken Into, the Safe Iiown O&pen with Lyna mite and S,1O Stolen. The usually quiet village of Lexington was aroused to a keen sense of tne wickedness in the world and to the fact that no community can he exempt from the visitations of rascals by the surpris ing discovery yesterday morning that the store of 3eetLe & Co. had been broken into and robbed some time d(uring the preceding night. The store i- located right on the main street of the village within thirty yards of the Court House and jail, and right in the centre of the btsiness portion of the town. Messrs. Thomas and James Meetze are the proprietors. When the store was opened yesterday morning the interior was found in a state of great disorder, the safe having been blown open with some powerful explosive. prohably dynamite. and the door hurled half across the place and much of the contents scattered on the floor. A portion of the contents which could not be found- on the floor or any where else was $510 in ea-h, which had been left in the safe the night before. about $200 of the amount being in bills, the balance in silver. Investigation proved tlat eatrance had been gained by prizing opeln the rear door, and a bit-brace and monkey wrench, which the robbers had evident ly used and left behind, were found. The brace was brought to Columbia yesterday, and. it is understood, war identified by Mr. Turner Weller, clerk at the Dial Hardware store, as one he had sold a man on Monday right last. It is further stated that Mr. Weller thinks he can identify the purchaser and that this elite, it is thought. will lead to something. Mr. Fritz lusemaun also remembers having s-ld a dynamite cartridge to a party lately, and this, if it can be fol lowed up, may prove a valuable clue. Meanwhile four tramps, two of whom claim to be brothers and named Ryan, have been arrested in Lexingtan oh su+ picion of complicity in the crime, and they have been lodged in jail. It is not known that there is any evidence of consequence yet. discovered to connect the arrested parties with the robbery. It was reported last evening that there as some loose talk in Lexington about lynching the suspected parties, but this was probably an idle rumor. as the good people of Lexington have too excellent sense to allow any such action to be taken. AN EXPERT ON SHORTHA NI). Don't Become a Stave to It if You Want to Amount to Any hing. "You ask me to talk of shorthand," said the old stenographer, as the blue wreaths of smoke from a fragrant Per fecto formed fantastic wreaths over his head. "Well. I'm both a good and a bad au thority on the subject; good, because I've established my right to be consid ered an expert; bad, because I fervently wish that I had never known anything about it. It is true that out of short hand I have contrived to make a pretty decent living, as livings go. For the last ten years I have averaged about $4,000 a year. "But what am I? What is a steno grapher, no matter how expert? Merely a machine-a sort of animated pen or pencil which other men use to express thcir thoughts'. And what utter ruhbi it is that i.ost of us stenographers write. Consider what a wearisome desert of verbiage there is in a law case that drags along for weeks and months! lf you were allowed to cut corners, to summar ize-to preserve the wheat and let the chaff go--there would be some little satisfaction in the work; it would afford some little exercise for one's intellect. But to give it all-questions and answers, objections, exceptions and arguments pah! I hate the word -verbatim.' "No, sir; I would advise no man of ability and ambition to ma~ke himself a slave'to shorthand. Let him regard it merely as a sort of stepladder by which he can risc-somnething to be discarded when he can secure a firm footing on higher ground. But this is easier said than done. You master shorthand and make a living out of it for a few years, and the first thing you know it has mastered you, and then you are con demned to be an animated pen or pencil for the rest of your days." CALLED TO HIS D)OORt AND) sHOT. Coward!y Assassination of a Colered Man Neat Ninety-Six. NIsrr-Sir, Feb. 5 [Special.-News was received here this morning of the mysterious murder of Milton Fouche, a negro man, 40 years old, who lived on the plantation of Geo. M. Anderson, five miles from Ninety-Six, on the Saluda River. Fouche was found dead this morning in his house, shot through the breast. At 10 o'clock he was aroused and called to his door, and on opening it he was greeted with a load of shot, resulting as above stated. The assassins are unknown, but are sup~posed to be persons whom Fouche recently prosecuted for illegally retailing liquor. BHRtKE His SKULL.

LONDOs, Feb. 4.-The Spanish mail steamer Remus has foundered off the island of Bihrean, one of the Philippines. All the passengers are supposed to have A BRIGHT CAREER CLOSED. Charles R. Jones of Charlotte to Go to the L.unatic Asylum. Colonel Charles R. Jones, says a Char lotte special, who has been the most. in fluential newspaper man in North Caro lina, has been examined and adjudged entirely deranged and will become an inmate of the Western insane Asylum at Morganton in a day or two. Colonel Jones came to Charlott; si'teen years ago and purchasdt the IDaily (;bserrer, which he soon built up to the standard of the leading State journal. For several years he managed it successfully and made money, but his political aspiration began to tell on the patronage of his paper, and in 1886, when he became an independent candi date for Congress and was so badly de feated, it ruined his business. In 1887 he was compelled to make an assign ment, but tried to pay dollar for dollar. In the midst of all these disasters he be cam" a victim of whiskey, opium and morphine, which soon did this dreadful work for him. He has a wife and four children, and is 48 years old. "HONEST JOHN" AND THE WIDOW. Mrs. Fleni..? Tells How the Ex-South Carolina Serntor Deceived Her. FHILADELPHIA, Feb. 4.-Mrs. Mary R. Fleming, who recently began a breach of promise suit against ex-United States Senator John J. Patterson of South Carolina, but who is now residing at Miftlintown, in this State, filed her state ment, together with an affidavit, in court to-day. In it Mrs. Fleming, who is a widow, says that on or about November 9, 1885, Senator Patterson asked her to be his bride. At numerous times until June. 1887. he treated her affectionately and wrote her several letters. He then ceased to correspond with her He had, she says. asked her frequently to become his wife and fix the day for their mar riage, and as many times he had himself postponed it. In the early part of 1886, the state ment claims, the Senator, in violation of his vows, entered into an engage ment of marriage with Jane Barron, a spinster of Hollidaysburg, which engage ment, she says, was subsequently broken. Widow Fleming says that she has always been willing to marry the Sena tor, but on November 2, 1887, he mar ried Mildred Frank of Waukesha, Wis., with whom he is now living. In preparing for the nuptials Widow Fleming says she has expended large stuns of money, and in consequence of the Senator's breaking off the engage ment she has suffered loss of position, disappointment, annoyance and morti fication, which, together with the money which she has expended, have injured her to the extent of $50,000. The Chicago Anarchists. CHICAGO, Feb. 6.-Members of the Arbiter Buno to the number of about 150 men met last night at Wendt's hall. Speeches were made by several of the members, who declared that there were police spies among them. After some discussion as to the best means of rid ding society of the hated detectives, it was resolved that each member should give his name, address and occupation to the committee appointed for this pur pose The committee will then investi gate each in good faith, and any who may be found trying to practice any de ception will be expelled. The members appear to be growing bolder and more aggressive in consequence of their vie toyover the polico, and when thesubject of spies was being discussed .onc very strong language was indulged A Itailroad rhat Needs Attention. To correct any misapprebension by the public concerning the condition of the Abbeville branch of the Columbia and Greenville Railroad, on which sev eral acciaents have lately occurred, and in relation to which some things have been published elsewhere, based on mis information, the follwing extract from the report of the Railroad Commission ers, after a recent inspection, is given below: "The road bed needs widening in many places where it has been washed from under the ends of the cross-ties, and thorough and immediate ditching should bedone in places where the water has occasioned depressions in the track from the churning of the cross-ties. Many new cross-ties are needed. -The Commission recommend the railroad company to put on an ade quate force to make the improvements at once. - '-Many rails are short and all badly worn and are doubtless largely the cause of accidents. "The Commission recommended that better rails be put on this road at the earliest praticable moment." He is a Woman. Lewis Ashley, colored, in jail under sentence from Justice A. H. Patterson for failure to pay taxes, turns out to be a wonan. Her exercise of the right of surage brought her into this trouble. But she is no stranger to prison wvalls in Barnwell, as she has been in durance vile before. She gives no reason for having masqueraded as a man, except that she has always worn such attire. It was said in high Radical times that many colored women donned their hus bands' garments and voted early and often at remote precincts, and Lewis may have been practicing so that she miht be perfect for the next Conigres sional elect ion.-Barmr ell Pebple. The Civil Serv-ice Humbug. WAsINGToN, Feb. 7.-A bill intro duced by Senator Daniel to-day provides that any American citizen over 21 years of age, who shall have passed a civil ser vice examination and have been found qualified, shall be furnished by the Civil Service Commission with a certificate of that fact and shall therefore be eligible for appointment to any office or posi tion to which said examination applies, without further formality, if the quota of his State or Territory is not already The A dmission of Territories. WAsHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The conferees on the Territorial admission bill held a t wo hours' session this morning, during which the whole situation of the admis sion of Territories was gone over thor oughly, but without result. The bill was not discussed by sections, but at a ~ubsequent meeting it will probably be aken up and considered in that way. The Gun Stands the Test. ANNAPOLIs, Md., Feb. 7.-The Thur ow steel gun was tested this afternoon tt the navy proving grounds, opposite Annapolis, and stood the governmental est. This is the first high power coast teel gun made in this country that has tood the governmental test of forty -ight and one-half pounds of powder My Poor Back! That's the common exclamation of those suffering with rheumatism or kidney troubles. In either disease Paine's Celery Compound will surely effect a cure, and there wll no longer be any cause to complain of - poor backs." Ilundreds of testimonials like the follow ing confirm our claims fur that grand old remedy, Paines's Celery Compound: "Two weeks ago I could not sleep more than an hour at a time any night, was constipated and kidniys did not act, and had a good deal of pain in the back. Since I took Paie's Celery Compound the pain has left my back, and I can sleep like a child." .enas Sanders, West Windsor, Vermont. "Having been troul led with rheunatism for five years, I was almost unable to get around, and was very often con 1 fined to my bed for weeks at a time. I have used nearly all medicines imaginale, besides outside advices, but to no advan tage. Having seen Paine's telery Com pound advertised, I gave it a trial. I have used only one bottle and am perfectly cured. I can now jump around and feel lively as a boy." Frank Caroli. Etreka, Nevada. Price, $1.oo. Six for $5.00. SoLo iy I)Kr t;.is-s.
