WILLIAM C. wniTXET.
which greeted lion. William C.llins
Whitney and Mrs. Edith S. Randolph,
who wore married at r2;:i0 p. in. in the
pretty little stone church of St. Saviors
by liov. C. S. Lailingwell, the pastor.
It was an informal affair. There were
no bridesmaids and no best man. The
church and grounds were thronged with
people long before noon and there was
no formal invitations to the affair. The
townspeople and society contentedly
shared seats with each other. The in
terior of the Miurcli was a mass of roses,
laurel, hydranges and potted plants.
Promptly at J2:30 the bridal party en
tered. The bride was accompanied by
hrr brother, Frederick May. and with
Mr. Whitney walked M. Bruin, the
Danish minister to the United States.
The bride was dressed in blue and white
silk adorned with pink roses and wore
n bonnet of forgot-me nots and roses.
Mr. Whitney wore a black Prince Al
bert coat. The service was over in ten
minutes and Mr. and Mrs. Whitney
walked down the aisle and were driven
to The Anchorage, the home of the bride,
where a wedding breakfast was served
to a few' intimate friends.
Mr. and Mrs. Whitney will remain
hero a week or so at The Anchorage,
and Mr. Whitney informed the Asso
ciated Press that further plans were in
definite.
“I may go to Hot Springs, as wo in
tended going some time ago. I cannot
say about au European trip, which was
broken off by the Chicago convention.
I became engaged to Mrs. Randolph but
lust Friday,” said Mr. Whitney, “and
we thought that wo would take time bv
the forelock. I wished the wedding to
be private on account of the death ot
ex-Senator Henry B. Payne. My sou
Harry starts this morning with his bride
for Japan on a continuation of the
honeymoon trip, and a congratulatory
message was received by me from them
this morning."
Hundreds of telegrams have been re
ceived by Mr. and Airs. Whitney. One
of the earliest was from President
Cleveland.
THE HORRORS OF LIBERIA.
Ileluniltig Ni-gru ColiinUlu I'nll of Fearful
Mi ll.irlnmni Dent li.
PmiADKiJMiA, Sept, ill*.—The steam-
■hip Wacshunl, which arrived hero from
Liverpool, brought back six of the uogM
colonists who went out to Liberia early
in the springon board the famous steam-
ship Laurada.
They tell horrible tales of sttlTjriugs
from disease and destitution by die un
fortunate people who gave up their
homes in this country to journey to that
distant republic to accept what appeared
to bo liberal otters of the authorities
there.
Foi ty members of the Laurada’s ex
pedition, consisting of 1)1.1 people, are
already dead, while the entire number
taken out, previously on the Danish
steamship Horsu have been eieried olf
by what ts known as John Bull fever.
Among the ; arty returning is Taylor
Fmitli of Forest Oify, Ark. He says
tV* country is unfit for civilization, and
that those who went on the Laurada are
now penniless and almost naked. They
have not sniff dent money to get back to
the stales, and certain death awaits
them. The fev r is carrying them off
rapidly. Several tni' -s they joined to
gether and called on the president of
the republic for help, but ho gave them
non'*.
When tlte expedition was made up it
was represented that ouch married man
would be given a plot of ground and a
house, and other grantH wore to bo given
the single men. Strips of laud were
given tncm. but no ho uses, and they had
no shelter for months after their arrival.

BIG RAILROAD CONCESSION.
Chtoagonn* to Ilull.l a Now I.tno In tho
Mate or Chlhantiaa, Mexico.
Citt of AIf.xico, Sept. 29.—Frederick
Bartlett of Chicago left Tuesday for
that city, having secured a most import
ant railway concession; in fact, tho
largest since that of tho Mexican Cen
tral.
Tho charter covers 2,000 kilometres,
witli two main branches, and provides
for a standard gauge road to run from
some point in the state of Chihuahua, on
the Mexican Central railroad, west to a
point on the Senoraroad, with branches
running north into one of tho richest
mineral regions on tho globe, and south
ward along the Pacific coast, thus in
suring the development of tho north
west and west coasts of the republic.
The lino will traverse a fine timber
country and open up a very extensive
mineral region, which is tiow difficult of
access, abounds in gold and silver prop
erties, and which was recently favor
ably reported on by au agent of the
Rothschilds, who explored the country.
It is believed it will add a new gold pro
ducing district equalling the most fam
ous in the world, as-independent miners
are now’, with the most primitive appa
ratus, taking out largo quantities of
the metal.
Tho total extent of tho road is greater
than the Mexican Central’s main line
and is the only great road the govern-
mont has been willing to give a charter
to, with subvention, which on tho main
line amounts to $1 j,000 per mile, but
the necessity of the road from a com
mercial and stragetical point of view,
and desirability for opening up the
northwestern portion of the country and
completing tho railroad system, was
readily discerned. Practical railway
men consider that tho line has oxcollout
prospects.

Makseilj.i s, Sept. 29.—There exists a
condition of affairs iu this city at pres
ent which seems to bo a disgrace to
Europe, and to tho Armenian associa
tions generally throughout tho world.
Subsisting upon government, municipal
or private charity hero are 500 unfortu-
nato Armenians, men, women and chil
dren, young and old, healthy and sick,
who have succeeded in escaping from
the bloody massacres at Constantinople
and who were, one and all, buoyed up
by the hope, on landing, that they
would be able, eventually, to reacli tho
land of freedom, tho United States.
But weeks have already elapsed and
nothing definite app uis to have been
done for their relief, much less towards
finding them homes, by any one of the
many associations forthorclief of suffer
ing Armenians which have been organ
ized in England or America. These
unfortunates, however, Keem to be the
very class to which tho hand of charity
should be first extended.
Large amounts of money have been
raised in the past for relief of destitute
Armenians in Armenia, but the situa
tion of tho latter is not a whit worse
than thut of the half starving people
hero, if as bad. The Armenians in Ar
menia certainly had their coreligionists
and fellowcouutrymen to fall back upon
but the poor people here seem to have no
friends in the wide world, yet they are as
honest and industrious a class as you can
find on tho shores of tho Mediterranean.
Some South American speculators, it is
true, taking advantage of tho deplora
ble situation, have prevailed upon 5100
of the Armenian refugees t<» allow them
selves to be carried td the Argentine
republic, there, iu all probability, to
meet tho fate of thousands of tho He
brews of Russia, who emigrated to
South America only to find themselves,
figuratively speaking, tossed from the
frying pan into the fire.
Only about 18 of the 800 Armenians,
who reached hero have as yet been able
to start for the United States. These
few emigrants are of the better class of
Armenians. They are fairly well sup
plied with funds and will probably start
for New York via Southampton. What
is to become of the remaining anfortu-
nntc Christians fleeing from the blood
stained Turks, who are living on char
ity hero with their eyes turned long
ingly towards the United States?
It Would seem that,these poor people
would be barred from reaching tho
United States, and they may be fpr-
buldcn to land there, even if they suc
ceed ill obtaining transportation to the
shores of North America. Surely, • if
there over was a case in which iron rules,
necessary no doubt, might be relaxed, it
is in the ease of these stricken peoplo,
flying from persecutions and butcheries
that have prevailed in their own land.
There is material here for the found
ation.of a strong Armenian colony, and
it would appear that there must be some
spot on earth where..these victims of
the bloodthirstiness find misgovernmont
of Abdul Hamid, sultan of Turkey, who,
according to generally credited reports,
must have caused the massacre of some
50.0QO Christians during the last fow
years, can earn an honest living.
The Aut« Talked About It.
It is becoming tiie general belief
among naturalists that all living crea
tures have some communication with
each other, at least to the extent of
making their wants, fears, etc., known
to others of their species. A writer on
ants recently investigated tho matter as
far as those interesting little insects
were concerned. He saw a drove of ants
of a small, black variety, which were
apparently moving to new quarters,
those going in n certain direction all
carrying ogrn or sick and helpless rela
tives, while thoce moving in tho oppo
site direction appeared to have just de
posited their burdens and to be return
ing for another load of “household ef
fects. ” They wore probably pretty well
along with their work, judging by the
leisurely way iu which *liey jogged
along, and upon meeting they would
frequently put their heads together os
though chatting about their new quar
ters or some other interesting subject.
It being n question in the naturalist’s
mind whether they were .eally talking
or not, ho hit on the expedient of mur
dering one of their number to see if the
ethers would run and toll what had
happened, ho says: “T:.o eyewitnesses
of the murder hastened away and laid
their heads together with every ant they
met, whereupon all would turn aud
scamper away. No more ants passed
along that path during tho day.”—St.
Louis Republic.

Gladstone, after half a century and

Hung Chang, with startling directness,
asked his host what he thought of Lord
Salisbury, Gladstone was quite equal to
tho emergency. Ho replied that “ho ad

How Do tho Girl* Llkn It?
The Philadelphia Record says that a
new fad inis originated among tho
younger elenu nt of Philadelphia’s so
ciety men. The scheme is to cut the sig
nature and last line from each letter re
ceived from a female friend and paste
tin in in a notebook, only one signature
from each correspondent being used.
Tln u, if three followers of the scheme
should meet, their notebooks are to be
producuit, ami the one having the lowest
number of signatures has to treat.
After He IIa<1 Almrtl Hie Camera and
I'rrflned the Dutton the Trouble Drgnn.
“All you have to do,” said Mr.
Trapp, us he showed his wife tho cam
era ho had purchased, “is to press this
little knob, and there you have a pic
ture. "
“I’m sure that doesn’t seem hard.”
“It isn’t hard. It’s ns easy as any
thing you ever heard of. There," he
exclaimed, os ho held the camera up in
front of her face, “I have a picture of
you. ’ ’
“Do you mean to say that my like
ness is in that box?”
“Yes, indeed,” bo answered proudly.
“How nice. Let’s take it right out
aud look at it. “
“No. You mustn’t do that. “ And he
entered into an elaborate but unappre
ciated explanation of the effects of sun
light cn tho sensitive film. £he was
very eager to see tho portrait, and he
promised to develop tho contents of the
camera that night and print the picture
tho next day. She was not very highly
pleased with the arrangement, but ac
cepted it because there was no alterna
tive. When ho got home, lie had with
him tho chemicals for developing a
negative.
‘‘Hero they arc,” ho said cheerily as
ho waved tho package over his head.
“I’ve got tho whole business in this
bundle. You have tho kitehru table
cleared off, and I'll get tho lantern
ready, and we’ll send the hired girl out
cf the house and make all the mess wc
want to. ”
Tho only response to his greeting was
au icy stare.
“What's the matter? Have you last
your interest in the camera?”
“No. On tho contrary, my interest
has been enormously increased. I have
read of unexpected discoveries iu story
books, but I never expected to find out
myself how true it is that a perfidious
plotter is almost sure to be discovered
in liis iniquities. To think of you Haunt
ing that camera in my face and me
trusting you all tho time.”
“When you say ‘perfidious plotter,*
do you alludo to me?”
“I certainly do. You yourself placed
in my hands tho proof of your treach
ery. You probably chuckled as you
thought cf how yon were leaving tho
evidence of your guilt with mo for safe
keeping. But I have found you out
There is only ono thing that I want to
know now, ” sko said iu a louder touo
as she tragically held a photograph be
fore his face, “aud that is, who is tho
woman?”
“Where did you got that?” he asked
iu surprise.
“I was anxious to seo what was in
tho camera,” she replied, “so I took it
over to my brother, who is an expert in
such things, and got him to make the
pictures for me. Ho sent them over to
me an hour ago, and this was among
tho lot. Now, sir, I have answered your
question frankly and promptly. Gan
you answer mine? Who — is—this—
woman?”
“Don’t you knew’ who that is?”
“I certainly do not. ”
“Why, that is yourself. “
“Don’t libel mo. Yon have injured
mo deeply. Do not, oh, do not mock
mo ns well.”
“Maria, I wish you would not bchavo
so much as if yen were performing at a
matinee. I tell you that n your picture.
Yon can recognize it by tlio way tho
Low at your neck is tied and by the pat
tern cf tho goods your waist is made of
if yon can’t recognize tho features. ”
She looked at it steadily, and ho held
out his bunds to her for a reconcilia
tion. The gazo she turned on him was
oven chillier than before.
“Do you mean to flay,” she asked in
flinty accents, “that yon intended that
picture of a lantern jawed monster us a
portrait of the woman whom you prom-
istd to cherish and protect?”
“Why, it wasn't my fault,” be said
soothingly, but the door slammed.
That evening the sailors who were
hanging about n wharf saw a man hur

of his side whiskers showed at n glance
thut ho was accustomed to surmount
obstacles instead of yielding to them.
“We were a day lute in getting that
piece of work out, ” he remarked to the
superintendent, of his business.
“Yes. It was one of those unfortunate
things that couldn’t very well be avoid
ed.”
“What was tho matter?”
“You will remember that tho order
reached us on Friday morning. It was
a pretty big job of work, and the fore
man bated like everything to begin it
on Friday. The men all looked kind of
glum when wc talked about taking it
up on that day, and, to tell yon the
truth, I didn’t like to begin it on Fri
day myself. “
“What’s wrong with Friday?”
“Nothing. Only you know the old
superstition about its being an unlucky
day. Of coune, everybody feels a little
sshamed of it, but, just the same, ev
erybody recognizes it and is more or
less afraid of it.”
“Aud you mean to tell me that this
superstition has saturated these shops
so that we're liable to bo delayed on a
contract if Friday happens to interfere. ”
“I’m afraid that is tho case.”
“Well, I’ll fix that.”
“It will bo hard to do.”
“No, it won’t. It will bo tho easiest
thing imaginable. Yon notify tho book
keeper and tho cashier that hereafter,
instead of paying off on Saturday, all
riinployees will got their money oil Fri-
iay. That’ll arrange things so that in-
itead of regarding Friday us unlucky
they’ll spend the other six days wishing

VARIETY TESTS OF COTTON.
Made Mnd Ilnpnrtrtl Upon by th* Georgia
Agricultural Exporlinrnt Station.
Every farmer wants tho most pro-
ductivo cotton—tho variety that will
yield tho largest return of valuable
product. Some insist on a variety that
has a vory small seed and that will
“turn out” tho largest percentage of
lint, assuming (without good reason)
that a variety that more than “thirds
itself* ’ will therefore produce the larg
est yield of lint per acre.
Othors claim that a largo boiled va
riety is to be preferred. Others still in
sist on ea * ness as tho most important
character. In conducting tho variety test
it was in* . od to fneludo in the inves
tigation even- point of merit that was
reducible o scale or measure. Eighteen
varieties cr j planted.
In a bmlecin issued to report results
King’s Improved stands second in earli
ness, fourth iu smallness of seeds, thir
teenth iu largeness of bolls, third in
percentage of lint to seed cotton, fourth
in yield of seed, fourth iu yield of seed
cotton, and first iu value of total prod
ucts. Jones’ Reimproved (a selection
from Jones’ Improved grown on the
farm in 1894) stands first iu yield of
seed, first in yield of seed cotton, second
in yield of lint, only ninth in percent
age of lint, but second iu value of total
products. It is also second iu size of
bolls. Hutchinson’s Storm Prolific, new’
to tho farm, is quite a promising va
riety, stranding second in yield of seed
cotton, second in size of bolls, second in
yield of seed, but owing to low percent
age of lint taking third place in value
of total products. This variety was re
markable for the early and vigorous
growth and development of the plants,
being far in advance of all other varie
ties—except Jones’ Wonderful—at date
of Aug. 1, but measuring less iu height
at final cessation of growth than any.
Duncan’s Mammoth Boll, Truitt's Im
proved and Hutchinson’s Storm Prolific
are of similar typo aud probably had the
same origin. King’s Improved is the
most distinctive typo of any of the 18
varieties, possessing peculiar botanical
characters apparently derived from Gos-
sypium barbadeuse (which includes Sea
Island aud other foreign varieties).
Taking it for granted that tho value
of tho “total produet” is the true test
of merit in a variety of cotton, tho
above indicates that the advantage is in
favor of (1) largo yield of lint per
hundredweight of seed cotton, (2) large
size of bolls, (8) large size of seed, (4)
curliness. The differences, although sig
nificant, are not very striking, and
there may bo frequent exceptions. In
cited, wc have exceptions in the tests
now under consideration. King’s Im
proved lias both small bolls and small
seeds, and yet it is the best, while im
mediately followed by four varieties,
Jones’ Reimproved, Hutchinson’s Storm
Prolific, Duncan’s M. Boll, and (skip
ping over one) Truitt’s Improved, all
having large bollM and largo seeds.
King’s excels each of tho four in earli
ness and in yield of lint percent of seed
cotton. After all, the true test is the
actual condition and weighing of the
products, tho lint and seed, and the
several characters and peculiarities that
have just been discussed are to be con
sidered only ns helpful guides in the
absence of the final test, in the selection
of seeds for planting.
In selecting a variety the latitude
and elevation of the section in which
the crop is to be planted and to some
extent the character and condition of
the soil should be considered. In a high
latitude an early variety not inclined
to grow large “weed” should be select
ed. Lowlands, fresh lands or a northern
exposure also suggests oarliness as a
prime factor, especially when the lati
tude or elevation or both are high. As a
rule early varieties of cotton require
closer planting.
Celery For Market.
The accompanying cut illustrates a'
crate used by an Ohio farmer for mar
keting celery, and here is what he writes
to Rufat New Yorker concerning it:

■ides. The box is made of thin, soft
wood boards and dipped in hot coal tar.
Heavy brown paper is placed inside tho
crate. Tho celery is placed in as shown
with whole roots and some soil left on
them. For homo marketing this works
well, ns the celery is always clean and
fresh and makes a much better appear
ance in the market.
Fertilising Cotton.
These conclusions have been reached
after a series of experiments at tho
Georgia station:
1. That while heavy doses of feitili-
zers do not give a corresponding increase
in tho yield of cotton or so large a per
centage of profit, yet such heavy appli
cations within reasonable limits are ju
dicious. provided tho land is iu good
condition.
2. That tho limit or maximum
amount of fertilizers thut can be safely
and profitably applied to land in good
condition varies considerably, say from
500 to 1,000 pounds per acre, according
to seasons, variety of cotton, etc. This
▼car the maximum amount thut was
immediately profitable was probably
between 600 aud 700 pounds per acre.
