The navy has been indu Iging in another series of Lloodless battles, and the dear boys are all victors. Judged by the substantial rewards offered him, the world loves a prizo fighter better than it does a proach e r. "Russia's fleet alarms Europe," is the cry of the daily press. But then Europe alvays was easily alarmed. Why is a society woman unlike an ugly female circus rider? Because one. busts her show and the other shows her bust. 'Tis said the Filipinos do not take kindly to the new coins minted by Uncle Sam. Well they are about the only people on earth not willing to accept our coins at their face value. A few wooks ago the newspapers were running coleimns about Pope Pius X. Today the space. allotted to him has been reduced to few lines. All of which serve to remind us that whatever may be our greatness today tomorrow we ai a practically forgot ten. The negro might do worse than to go back to his southern homo. It is true he may not enjoy the right of sufferage to such an eXtot as ho does in the north, but tho southern man understands him better than anyono else. Climate, environment, and ov erything else will be in his favor, and the plow and the hoe are the best tools on earth for him to caive out his future with. Stuyvesant Fish, president of,. 'Jel linois Contral Railwa nya there art present than 800 rail ron fl o and that before very long these wIf bo merged into twen ty or thirty corporations. Mr. Fish maintains that corporation mnergore are a necessity and in the interest of the general public, but the commnor people will reserve the right to forn their own opinions on this subject and it is more than likely that they will have somnething to say aboul such a wholesale morger whien tlhc propPer time comes. Ladies ,beware of high-heeled shoes, as death and disease are stalk. ing in their wvake. Physicians of re nown are emphatie in condomingi the stilted heel shoes decreed by the society leaders, and unhoesitatingl3 declare that they atrc a menace te the health of both the mother and thc off'spring. WVo often comment on the harberous habit of binding the foot practiced in China, but the boather is little worse in tPHs respect thai some of our latter day leaders of fashion. The promoters of the St. Lonie E~xposition are laboring with an ex aspor-ating proposition, and oneo tt threatons to interfere to a considera ble extent, with the attendance at the fair next year. The city has for a long time been under the grasp of a horde of i-ailroad ticket scalpers, and the legislature failed to give any re. lief in this line during the last seu sion, and now the railroads absolute ly refuse to make any better rates t( the fair than the usual excursior1 prices, if scalpers are permitted t0 'ontinueO during the fair-. The coun. try at large is sufficiently inteorested in the success of the exposition to de mand that some ar-rangemnents be madle whereby the lowvest possible - rates will be granted by the roads, The negro problem is now con fronting the author-ities of the war and navy departments. Heretofor-e negroes have been allowved to enlistt in the army and navy, and in a few j istances in the army commissions have been issued to them. One ne. gro is now captain in the army, hav ing graduated froma West Point soe years ago. -So fatr ho has been as * signed to color-ed regiments and no material emibarrassm ent has been en - countered. But in the ceourse of time and our system of piromotioti lie will become a colonel and entitled to * command a regimnent,ther-eby placing him over white oflicors- and theu the trouble will commence. As a result of the present race agitation, and the problem presented by this colored oficer, It is nt likely that commis. sbons will be issued to any)3 mor0e nc * roos. A Federal judge in St. Louis has rendered a decision in which he holds that the Western Union Telegraph Company has a legal , ight to dlis charge employee for belonging to un * ons, or to discharge them for tno ieason at all, if no contr aot exists, and that the company is within the law when it places the names of dibs argeTSd ernployes on te blacklist anid furnishes the list to othe:'s for I o.. mation. The decision will bea hesvy blow to oganized labor, which has a. ways contended that corporatioun had no tuch rights to discharge an om. ploye unless he had been guilty of some special infriaction of the rulks of the company. UnAer the caption of "Turning on The Light," we printed som14 articles some time ago, relative to the doings of the County Commissioners. After the Grand Jury stated to us tihey would make a thorough investigatiou, we turned off ithe light. They mnudu the examination and fully sustainied the position we hai taken inl the matter. After they had agreed to make thib examination we thought it useless to make further exposuros. The Jury gave tlleir finidings to the court atid we publishud them at Lhe time. We thought then, and tlinkl now, that we acted right and faii in the matter. We turned off tho light because the Grand Jury promised to investigate, and not because we were bought off. We thus publicly make this stato ment becauso we have been repoated ly asked why we had hold up on the commissioners We repeat, wo ac complished what wo set out to do get aln examination of the cominis sioners oflico. This was dono and we had nothing more to say or do along this line. We think we acted not only wisely, but right. Don't you? Croswell News Notes. Tile health of our community was never bettor; hardly over sco a doctor on this side of the county. Crops are fairly good whore they wero worked rogular. W. D. and J. H. Garrison have the finest field of tip land corn we have seen anywhere. They planted it in Mareb, and it was bit down by frost, but to see it now you would not think it had boon frost bit. Robt. Snoddy has tie finest cotton we have Beet), if what fruit it has on it iatures, can't see how the stalks will hold it Up. We had good rains Friday and Saturday, but up the railroad at Lathoim's sido track they are dry. Our good old friends, uncle Wood Garrison mnd Johi LaBoon are still able to go to mail box for Sentinel u#inrnal. Mrs. Frank Proctor, of Sumter, is on a visit to tior brother, J. I'. Lark. It has been twonty-two years siince sho was in this county, and many chlangos has took place in that time. Mris. Proctor irformed us that tob~ace. is grown sutcesfully ini hte county, anid that they begin to cure it about the middtle of J1 uly. The colored raco had a "farmers aid society" barbiecume at their school house near hero last week; tihe wholo hill wvas covered with them. The "society" wais well represen ted from A nderson and 0Grceenileo coun ties. We heard soveral of the dlarkeys say that there was plenty of grub on the ground for all, but those that were not members of the "society" had1( to stand back till the delegates ate, and as soon as they ate, the rations were rolled oiY' inito th~e baskets. T1he re stilt w~as thait many of themn went away yery hungry. It, is claimed by al11 who have seen it, that Mrs. Elizabeth Snodkly has the largest calf for its ago in the cotunty.

Mil1 Meni Think That Price of Maniufate tured Goods Must 1iie--Cotton Will Bring Fancy 'ricoes. The Olympia and Granby closed We1dnesday afternoon to remaitin idle for the rest of the week. This is made necessary on account of the cotton famine. The Whaley mills stuck it out as long as they possibly could, and will not ha force(d to operate on half time long er than a month, and may be run ning on t'ull time befoie the laid dio of September. Mill mon are not, disp)sod to worry over the situation. They fefel assured that tile price of man ufactured goods wiil go up to the placo it should occupy ill propor tion to the price of raw cotton. The full will he a prospurous sea son for the price of cotton will bo over 10 cents, and the producttion will be heavy. The condition of the crops would indicatLe a fall in the prico of cotton, but there is but a sm1all supply of unu1 e tid cot. ton, whereas usnally the sonson is started with a million hal p of old cotton. A well known mill oflicial of Columbia said that the neCw cottoni will be Sorviceable beforo ver~y long. It is not used alone, buLt is imixedl with old cotton for a wvhile, unutil1 the new crop dries out a lit. tIe.

Dniry) IIuU1banfdry Field Work. Th'ie department of dairy hiusba ndry of the U.niverstity of Illinois has for the past year beeni condutcting field work among the dairyimn of the tjtate. An attempt hais been madue to get them to w'.eigh and snmp)lie the milk of each cow ini their herds (svery Hevenith week, the object being to determine whieh of the iniiduaIil~l COWs4i a'thte mlost profit abie, so thait the farmer may be able to weed out the poor cowsa and keel) only the profitable ontes. Mr. A. J. Glover' la looking after this work, and1( nil ne(c(ssatry aIppaIratu its 15furntished by the untiversilty. The farmers who take up the work aire required every seventlh week to weigh anud niamplle tho mnilk fromn eac'h cow in the herd for' fourteen conecutive muilkinigs. F~romn these results ar'e estiimttl the amounts of milk and of butter fat each cow hais produced for' the three ~''weks befotro anid will produce for the three weeks following the tent. Th'e cow's yealyi3 record1 la madeth upi fronm these tests, anid in this way the total atmoumnis of muilkc and1 of buttter fat that shte hats prtoduiced duriing the enttiro year are'( determIinetd. TIhe, Mhik Strainer. F'iiters a111ndrstimnr are of great value in purifying milk miechanieally, are cnpablo oif remiov.ing a large puor tion of' the filthI from milk if applied before it hasn gone inito solutioni. A milk str'ainer siihul be simple in its counstut, all parts of it should1 be (easily aecessible to br'usth and clo0th, its -mneshen should be line enough .to re miove all tho solid foreigitn mtter and at the saime time allow. the milk to pass8 through the filter with a reason able degreo of rupidity.
