Saturday, September the 28th, will be work day in South Carolina for the orphanages in the State. The work day plan is to get all who will to contribute the earnings of one day of labor, or the income of one day, for the care of the orphans, and to direct their gifts to the institutions of their choice. These institutions are maintained by the voluntary contributions of our people, and they need all the financial aid the work day proposition can possibly bring to them. We urge a general observance of the day and liberal responses. Let the proposition mean something to the orphanages which are caring for the homeless and fatherless children in South Carolina. Yours truly, W. B. WHARTON. The Cotton Market. Cotton is selling to-day (Wednesday) for 11% cents the pound.

Going the rounds in the halls of ongress there is a document that calls ( Dr $10,000 with which to get guide ( osts, under proper survey, in the lost treacherous portions of the ( reat American Desert. The money is wanted by all the 1 eople in the West, by miner and | esert traveler, and Lou Westcott 1 leek in particular. For many years Ir. Beck, accompanied by his faithiil dog Rufus, has made extensive : rips to the great desert, paying par- 1 icular attention to Death Valley, 'here repose hundreds of bones, Duvenirs of the pioneers who lost 1 leir lives in trying to blaze the trail ; i California. His self-imposed and .? nnual duty is merely to set up as j lany guide posts as possible, single- ] anded, which point the way to the \ earest live spring, and to succor any ' Bver-stricken wanderer, who may 1 ill by tfce wayside. < "? >10170 Rpok and his 1 Countless nvco ? og saved and to many wealthy min- 1 rs of Nevada, Arizona and California J le two are heroes without flaw. The ( lan and dog are called the "Angels f the Desert," and well named they < re. On his trip last year his last < jscue was dramatic in the extreme. < In the heat of a terrible afternoon, i lany miles from water of any kind, 1 eck saw some tiny black objects in ( le distance, soaring about in a { rcle. A stranger would not know 1 hat the objects were, but to Beck ' ley were significant enough. He ( illed Rufus, and, pointing the dog's 1 Dse to the flying shadows, said: 1 "Buzzards." ( Instantly the dog was off, and < eck plodded on. In a short time < eck smiled as he saw the vultures * :attering and flying in disorder to- < ard the west. 1 "Rufus is there," he murmured. * nd sure enough when Beck came up 1 ith the dog there was the prostrate >rm of a desert traveler, dust cov- 1 ed and motionless. Beck ran up 1 id, examining the man, saw at once 1 *** hjg. pars 1 tat life sun exiaieu u U I bUUV Maw ere bleeding. 1 Quickly Beck was at work, and, 11 Dening the bdg hanging on the * *east of the big St. Bernard, took * it brandy, forced it between the 1 an's lips and then, taking his can- J en, used the water first to wash the i an's face and chest, and then, 11 hen he revived a little, poured 1 >me of it down his parched throat, j1 eck then placed the canteen in the I s an's hand, and, tying the dog to the ? ctim's leg, hastened off for help. ( nd that man is alive to-day. 1 Twelve years ago Beck and a com-1 mion lost their way on the Mojave c sert and wandered for two days and * ghts without water. So terrible * ere their sufferings at that' time ! lat Beck has ever since devoted I( hatever spare time and money he * jssessed toward the establishment ? ! sign posts throughout the desert * iat would give travelers on the 1 lirsty roads accurate information as 1 distance and water supply stations. 3 One instance which Beck always 1 teaks of when explaining the fear- 1 il need of signboards is the time 1 hen, right in the heart of Death ? alley, he found three men stone I ;ad at -the base of a butte on the * her side of which was a flowing 1 iring. The men were looking for I ater but they had faailed. If there id been a signboard in tne vicinity eir lives would have been saved. Beck has leather shoes made for s dog to protect the feet of the anial from centipedes and wounds of le cacti. For himself he wears toes with knee tops as a protection om the rattlers, a type of those icwn as side winders abounding, tiey are from 12 to 22 inches long, it are as deadly as the Gila moner, another terror of the desert, eck, if bitten by them, injects red ussiate of potassium into the ound after filling a pocket of flesh =ar the wound with powder and exoding it. There are wild camels now in the merican desert, said to have found ieir origin in the camels that fled om white men in that region a half ;ntury ago. Camels, according to eck, would be the most practical limals for desert travel, but dogs ould be the easiest, ana tnese ne ill attempt to breed this year. His 1 vn dog, Rufus, is half St. Bernard ^ id half red Siberian hound, which ^mbination, according to his own c actical experience, is the very best issible. This dog can carry 25 c >unds with ease and can go long c #1 iriods without food or water. He is almost human intelligence.? ew York Herald. t Governor Blease says the Jones ( en stuffed the ballot boxes.

A schooner is stationed on the "~~" ground to act as a general store, gt while others schooners ply between parr the boats and the shore, bringing at E supplies and mails, and returning busil with the shell. Quite tiny craft are these pearly luggers, 12 tons only, for larger boats would hinder the purI liver in his movements. Banl Seven colored men are allowed to Du? D2 sach lugger, five of these forming the Curr crew, the other two being the diver Gold ind his tender,, who for the time be- Silv* ing is the most important man on 00 Cll6C Doard, for every one must obey his orders instantly. The lugger owners t( ire white men, but the divers are invariably Asiatic.

Malays and po lapanese form the majority of the ^ash livers; although the latter are noted ce :or their industry and skill, the form- bo ir are better able to stand the pressire of deep water. At daybreak the diver commences B, vork. Donning his dress, screwing his B? lelmet securely, and grasping his cash: ife line, with which he signals to his til 6 ;ender, he descends a short ladder ig a md sinks to the ocean bed, where shov vith a few ascents for rest and re 'reshment, he remains till sundown. 3n board two men work continually pumping down air, and the tender, lis hand on the life line, and alert Corr 'or the slightest signal, directs the ugger's course as it drifts in the vake of the man below. In shallow ivater the diver's risk is small; he i3 secure from sharks, and if careful gt< ivoids the deep holes, which mean j-$am langer; but deep water is another Bam' natter. ness Shallow water is counted up to 15 >r 16 fathoms and deep water to 22 Loan Over 'athoms, or even 24; but in the lat- ^ , ? Bona :er the danger becomes extreme, and by nany a rash diver has found his Furu leath within his diving dress. The Bant ligh pressure can only be borne for DUba i few minutes at a time, says M. L. curr Pechell in the Field, and many a Gold nan owing to a trifle delay has been Silve )rought to the surface, living indeed, ret destined to a wreck for the est of his life.

The greater jart of the profit arises from the Corr ihell, which at present fetches 226 tounds per ton, but has occasionally imounted to 400 pounds. The cost )f raising is 100 pounds per ton, vhich will, of course, be greatly , Th ncreased if white labor is employed. meet Dealers in pearls must have an an- 0n tl lual license; but in spite of this a ings ;ood deal of illicit traffic goes on. 11 0 rhe opener frequently steals pearls Let . md always finds agents to pay him or the "snide," as stolen pearls are J. P. jailed; men travel continually on :oasting steamers between Singapore T md Broome for this purpose. Hurricanes, which often sweep these an^ Thon ropical seas, are the greatest danger o the luggers. Sometimes they oc- work ?ur without the smallest warning, ates. :ausing devastation and suffering. The worst of these are known as 'cockeyed bobs," and usually take dace in the lying-up season; but even ___ n harbor and on land they deal de- Ca truction.
