Each home, alas! a skeleton hath hidd.'ii

You may not be aware of it but by some

From highest parentage hath often health

So judge alone each individual on hi-*

And their will be more justice done among

Is Till* Alliance Doctrhiv?
Ne '8and Courier.
A
* We publish to-day a statement of!
Alliance principles and intentions
us expounded by State Lecturer Tillbert
to u staff correspondent of the
News and Courier in an interview at
Orangeburg on Saturday last, the'
same day on which be addressed the I
County Alliance at that place.
It will be seen that Mr. Tulbert
does not think a third party ought
to be necessary to cany out the on-1
jects of the Alliance, because accord-}
ing to his view tho principles of the!
Alliance and of the Democratic
party are the same, but if the Demo-'
cratic party does not grant the wish
es of the Alliance, or if the ropre- j
Heiitatives of the Alliance and the
I
various labor organizations conclude i
that "the people" want a third party,
then there must be a third party, !
and the members of the Alliance
must support it. In other words,)
the Alliance will bear alb-giance to i
the Democratic party only so long
as the Democratic party consents to
be the instrument of the Alliance|
for the accomplishment of its pur i
poses.
In the second place Mr. Talbert |
thinks that the Constitution has
hpoil vinlntnil in ttin 4-1%.* I
. tv/*Mvv\? >u t.iv IIUCI cot KJ1 LIIC
banks and tho railroads, and there
fore it ought not to stand in tho way
of the sub-treasury or any other
wild cat scheme that may he concoct ed
by the agitators who imagine it to
he their special mission to save the
farmers.
Again, Mr. Talhert says that the
minority must bow to tho will of the
majority under any and all circuinstances.
lie goes as far as Speaker
Heed himself in his advocacy of the,
control of the minority by the majority.
In regard to the farmers
who do not hold the same views with
himself as to the Alliance, he says
that they can stay out of it, or if
they are already in it they should go
out or be put out, and when they are
out, they and everybody not in the
Alliance will be made to do just
f what the Alliance thinks ought to
* be done.
Again, Mr. Talbert says that the
Alliance demands that a revolution
be worked in the financial system of
the country, and if that revolution
cannot be accomplished by the ballot
tlion it must bo accomplished, by the |
force of arms and bloodshed. True
he does not use t he words arms and
bloodshed, but lie says that "if the
"voice of the masses of (he people is;
V "not heard and heeded and relief j
"granted there will cornea day in |
"the future when an angry people j
"will appear at the gates of justice,
"and demand their rights in a mood
"incapable of reason, for when the
"flag of wrath and retribution is rais
^<vit j* late to rea ion." If
words do not ct -^vey a threat

should be officially promulgated as
the doctrines of the Alliance. It
has always been the proud boast of
the self respecting (. arolinian that
he thought and acted for himself,

man joins the Alliance he surrenders

Southern Cultivator.
The United States Department of
Agriculture gives the following:
"The sorghum canes, properly
stripped of leaves and with the seed
tops removed, are passed through
a mill adjusted to extract as large a
rate per cent, as possible of the juice.
A first class, three-roller horse mill,
properly adjusted, will extract from
GO to Go pounds of juice from each
100 pounds of clean cane. In case
the molasses shows a tendency to
granulate, the cane should be cut
and allowed to lie in the field three
or four days before being woiked.
If the molasses does not show any
tendency to granulate, it is best to
have the cane worked as soon as possible
after harvesting.
As soon as the juice is expressed,
it should be treated with cream of
lime, which hns been thoroughly
strained so as to contain no large
lumps of undissolved lime. In a
tank of convenient size, two-thirds
tilled with juice, the cream of lime
should be added, little by little,
with stirring so as to incorporate it
thoroughly with the juice. As the
point of neutrality is reached the
juice will show a large amount of
llocculcnt matter, and will slightly
change in color, passing from groon
to amber color. Care must be taken
not to add an excess of the cream of
lime, the result of which would be a
darkening of the molasses. The
proper point mav he soon learned by
ex peri nee, it can also be determined
directly by litmus test paper. The
blue litmus test paper should be
used When t his blue paper is
placed in the natural juice, it will
turn to light red. As the point of I
neutrality is reached the change of
color in the litimus paper becomes
less and less pronounced, and when
it is distinctly purple it shows that 1
the proper amount of lime has been
added. If too much lime be added
the paper will be distinctly blue.
Litmus paper can be obtained from
any well-equipped drug store.
A very yxcellent article of molasses
is made by adding to the juice,
treated as above, some bisulphite of
lime. This bisulphite of lime is
made by passi'g the fumes of burning
sulpher into cream of lime, un
til it is saturated. The addition of
the bisulphite of lime makes the
juice again acid, but tends to produce
a molasses of a much lighter
color than can be made without it.
Excellent molasses, however, of a
somewhat darker color, can be made
with the use of the bisulphite of
liinc. A good article of molasses of
light color, can also be made without
adding line, and molasses made
in this way is exceptionally good for
baking purposes.
The juice, after treatment wi'.h
the lime, or with the lime and bisulphite
of lime, or with the bisulphite
of lime alone, should be placed
at once in a tank, and rapidly
brought to the boiling point. It
should, however, not be allowed to
boil, but when.tho scum, which is
formed over the top, begins to show
signs of breaking, the heat should
bo withdrawn, and the blanket of
scum carefully removed. The heat
may then be again applied, until all
the green scums have been entirely
separated. The purified juice should
now be reduced, as rapidly as possible,
to the consistency of molasses.
This is best done in some form of
continuous evaporator, based on the
old-fashioned Cook evaporator, in
which the purified juice constantly
ruus in at one end of the evaporator,
pusses back and fifth across it, and
t Iwi (in luhnJ mnltitioA- * - * 4 I-?
vuv. ii ii ioiivu i?iv"n?ooo- I nun out. III l/IIU
other end. The more quickly this
j evaporation cnn b' accomplished,
I the better for the molasses,
j When, the molasses runs from the
I evaporator, it st.ould be cooled as
I quickly us possible, and should ncvI
er be placed m barrels until it has
almost- reached the ordinary temperature
of the air.
These directions are only of a general
nature, nud it requires a large
experience to be able to produce always
a first class article of molasses."

"Oh, yes," he said spitefully,
"that's just the way with you women.

Some fusty old curmudgeon has said j(l
that women like fast men, and that!14
has settled it. Now, every votingI
i , i it'
.fellow who isn't popuhr with the
girls, rings changes on that subject,
world without end. Taking it for ^
granted that women do like fast ,
men best, why shouldn't they? It's
this sort of men who make theni^
selves agreeable, who take pains to ^
note the tastes and fancies of the
C<
women they know, and to show them
the little courtesies which make up
s<
the poetry of every-day life.
"I saw a fair example o' this in
the waiting room of a railroad statioii
the other day. j)(
"A middle aged couple were to r<
take the train. They were evidently ((
above the average in intelligence;
were well-dressed, and apparently q*
well to do. That they were familiar v
; with the usages of good society, was
apparent in their manners. (j,
"But the cool indifference of the |\
man to the comfort of his wife was c(
a bad comment on bis mind und
temper. tl
"She was rather delicate-looking si
and somewhat nervous, and ho pi
seemed to take a sort of vicious de- L
light in taking a sort of turn across s<
the lloor, then coming up suddenly oi
very close beside her, and speaking '
in a sharp, (juick voice, which 011 al- K
most every occasion, brought a deep d
llush to her face. When tlie train p
was called, he walked along with a li
small satchel in one hand and a ci II
gar in the other, leaving his wife to e^
follow with her wrap, umbrella, si
hand-hag and a couple of small par- rc
eels. He passed through the door, u
indicating to tho guard, by a ilirt of k
his thumb, who was to he passed on k
the ticket with his own. She was
assisted into the car by the trainmen,
the husband being haif a dozen steps
in advance, and looking hack from
the door of tho car to see that she ^
was coming. ^
| "Who shall say how many heart- j1(
aches, wrinkks and gray hairs come j,
from just such circumstances as 1V
these. Who could not see from the w
face how she felt the conduct of the jj
man who had promised to love and (j
cherish her. Welladay! We will ^
need a new lexicon of domestic terms h
if this keeps on.
"At the same time there wus an- h
other couple waiting for the train, h
About the same age they seemed to n
be, and in many points resembled ?<
the others. t<
"But there was a thoughtfulness, ii
a delicacy in their manners that tl
spoke volumes. There was nothing
effusive or obtrusive, but the highest si
type of politeness spoke in every tl
word and aotion. Even the half* h
whispered remark, 'The pin is com- e
ing out of your vail, dear,' told the tl
story of good will and real kindlings
of heart. u
"An old tenchor defined politeness p
as kindliness expressed, and it is a hi
definition that parents would do a
well to ingrain into the minds and ti
memories of their childrens. 1
"Women are keenly susceptible to n
kindness, and many a young girl's t
tirst experience of a thoughtful in- ti
terest in her comfort and happiness o
has come through the tempter in the
guise of a rather fast yeung fellow, h
' Agreeable manners and nrettv t
? ' M J
compliments, with the thousand lit- w
tie attentions so dear to a woman's o
heart, are the most dangerous of al ii
luremcnts when they come from un- t
principled persons. A girl's heart v
js not likely to be won by rudeness r
or neglect, and such treatment is u
well calculated to drive women and h
girls to strangers for a sympathy
and affection which they aro denied 8
at home. t
"When husbands, fathers, broth- t
era and sons recognize the true value v
of politeness at home, and make It a o
more important ingredient in their 1
every day life, we will hear
less of thi8 talk abont women
fast men." i

Washington, April 7.?The counterfeit
$2 silver certificate heretofore
I , ...
| described in theso dispatches, is causing
considerable trouble. At the
Treasury I )cpartnient not more than
twenty of these counterfeits have
come into the hands of treasury officials.
The extent of their circulaI
tion, however, is not known, as they
hear so close a resemblance to the
genuine note that they cannot be readily
detected, except by experts.
The issue of the regular series of
the two dollar silver certificates has
i been suspended, and arrangements
are being made for the issue of a sub>
stitute. The original bears the por
trait of (Jen. Hancock, and the subi
stituto will have that of Secretary
Windoni. While the old series has
not been called in, none of the notes
of that scries coming into the trcasi
?
I nry will be reissued.
J The department is also considering
the ad \ i-abilit \ of discontinuing1 the
? o
use of ilie distinctive paper on which
government notes and securities are
now printed. A commission lias
been appointed to investigate the
manufacture and use of paper and to
report whether the interests of the
i government require additional safeguards
in that respect.

Mrs. Vallonee was cordially greet- ^

the door and placing the key in her cj
pocket, went to a closet and secured ^
a large knife, the edge of which had
