Parker, of Guilford College, X. C., has gone to Mtn. Island, X. C., to learn the mill business in the Hooper Cotton Mills. The driving belt, 5(» inches wide, on the engine at the Proximity Mills, Greensboro, X. (’., broke last week; no damage of consequence. The directors of the Mooresville (X. C.) Cotton Mills Tuesday re elected all of the old officers and de clared a semi-annual dividend of 1 per cent. A factory girl named MarthaCiieek was killed Monday morning at Haw River, X. C. She attempted to cross the track in front of a train and was struck and killed. H. W. Bigelow, for three years su perintendent of the Golden Belt Ho siery Mill, Durham, X. C., resigned that place Jan. 1, and will rest for a couple of months. Albert Bassett, Superintendent of the knitting department of the Com monwealth Colton Mfg. Co., Durham, X.

Epps, for- mermerly 2tm hand here, is now over seer at the Hiawatha, Gibsonviile, X. C. Miss Mollie Gains and Judge Simpson were married Dec. 21, both of Altamahaw. We learn from Fayetville, X. C., that the Phoenix Cotlou Mfg. Co., believe they have enough money paid in on the co-operative plan to equip their recently erected building with machinery. The stockholders elected Chas. Haigh president, and Capt. J. I). McXeil again as Secretary and Treasurer. The beautiful new residence of Chas. T. Holt, at Haw River, X. C., was partly destroyed by lire on Jan. 15. The men employed at the Gran ite Cotton' Mills, near by, all rushed to the scene, and were largely the means of its not being destroyed. Mr. Brown, a travelling man, was mentioned as performing heroic work at the lire. The stockholders of the Louise Mills, Charlotte, met Tuesday, re electing II. S. Chadwick, president; and W. S. Mallory, Sec. and Treas. The enlarg ■ment of the mill to 15,000 spindle and 450 loom capacity was endorsed and the officers’ reports show that the machinery for the part al ready built is arriving, and will be in operation by early summer. President J. R. Barron, of the Man chester Cotton Mill Co., Rock Hill, S. C., returned last Saturday from a successful business trip to the North. He succeeded in placing over $20,000 stock in his mill, thus placing the mill out of debt. The paid up capital stock is now $13(1,000. Negotiations are in progress looking to the running of the mill night as well . o a day. A Baltimore trade journal says that the Clinton (S. C.) Cotton Mills have increased their capital stock from $50,000 to $100 0<i0. The Textile Ex celsior announced on Oct. 17, 1890, that the capital stock of the above company was to be $100,000. The factory buildings, which we under stand are about completed, are three stories and planned for a capacity of 10,301 spindles and 270 looms. M. S. Bailey is president. It is expected to get the machinery into operation in early spring. The meeting of the stockholders of the Fairfield Cotton Mills was held Jan. 11 at Winnsboro, 8. C. No special business of public Interest was transacted. Some matters bad to bo deferred owing to tbe sickness of the Scc-Trcas., J. M. Beaty. We may mention, however, that the com pany has paid in about $31,000, and it is expected in four months time that ICO looms and 2.5(>0 spindles will ho in operation. Nino thousand dollars wort Ii of machinery bus been paid for and put in position. A writer paints the good living at Whitney (S. C.) Cotton Mills as fol lows : Whitney must be a good place work, as our superintendent has daily applications from hands. Wo have now plenty of extra help. Our superintendent allows us all to have cows, and gives us the advantages of two pastures, ready fenced, contain- clothing mg over 25 acres of lino grass lands. Wo have sixty cows divided among operatives, and enjoy delights of the country, while having the facilities of the town. There is a good church, Sunday school and day school. Our people are well satisfied. Mr. Crawford, an employee of the Lockhart (S. C.) Cotton Mills, lias three small children from three to six years of age. These children a few days ago went into a bedroom where there was a loaded shot gun, and while they were trying to get the cap otf, the gun was fired off, the load barely missed the children, went through the bed and lodged in the side of the house. The bed was set on fire. Overseer of J. T. Cunningham went over to Ches ter last week to secure hands, as the Chester mills have both shut down. They hope to be running on full time soon. Regarding the superintendeney of the Efird Cotton Mill, Albemarle, X. G’., the item wo published two weeks ago was correct except the middle in itial of Mr. Kersey. It should be J. F. Kersey, who has been for a year overseer carding and spinning at Can non Mill Xo. 2, Concord, X. C.; he wound up his work tlmre on Jan. 10 and is now at Albemarle. J. T. Ker sey, a son of the foregoing gentlemen, has been running the curding and spinning rooms at the Cabarrus Mill, Concord, X. C., at night), but bus given up same to accept the spinning and twisting rooms at the Elizabeth City, X. 0., Cotton Mills, having left for there a week ago. The Mtn. Island (X. C.) Cotton Mills through Manager \V. T. Jordon carried out tlieir time honored custom on Christmas and gave each family employed in their factory a turkey. This is the eighth consecutive year they have done so. In 1895 the em ployees gave a fine Christinas present to Mr. Jordon, though he has the same kindly feeling for all whether a return present is made or not. The help however show their reciprocal feeling by special interest in further ing the company’s interests. The factory resumed operatives last Mon day after a week’s shut down for re pairs to the main gear wheel of the water power transmission. -• - FLAW PICKER AND HIS JUG. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Bed- Granny Picker Didn’t Like that stead Talk Worth a Cent. Ui’i’Eii Coaling Ground, Jan. 2G.— My dear readers: It has been some time since I have taken my pen in hand to drop you a few lines, as it were, and the whole reason is because Granny Ricker got me “hacked,” you understand. 8ho didn’t like that bedstead talk worth a cent, and of course it was all blamed to Flaw. When anything is done along this line the whole outfit jumps on Flaw —Granny Picker, Mrs. Picker and little Pickets Xos. 1 an 2, and do you know its a great consolation to me that little Picker Xo. 3 hasn’t got any teeth and can’t talk yet? If you want to have friends and ad mirers to greet you with broad smiles and pleasant faces just tie a jug in the back end of a buggy with a leather strap and go somewhere. T’other day I was at the Kernel’s and the goodhearted Kernel and his bet ter half (by far) sent the little Pick ers a whole gallon jugful of fine mo lasses by me. I tied tbe jug in the back end of the buggy with my halter rein when I started home to prevent its turning over or breaking. Every man I met on the road would greet me with a smile and look inquiringly at the jug, and when I got to \ViI- kinsville I had to stop to get some backer and a crowd surrounded the buggy. I saw it was treat, trade, travel or excuse myself, so 1 hustled old Bob on. I hadn’t got very far till I met Occasionally; and, like his good old self, stopped for a talk. While asking about the new county proceedings and other topics he es pied the jug swung up by the halter rein. He would look inquiringly at the jug, then at me, bull talked fast and was soon on my way hofne again. When I got nearer homo I met Dr. Smith and he likewise was anxious to know the contents, and I said, “Doc, you can analyze the stuff ef you want to, but you’ll find it only lasses and good ones at that.” Then another thought haunted me: “O, Laud, ef' I happen to run on Henry Buice and he captures my jug, thinking its blockade.” As me and Bob came bursting through the streets it seemed to me like there was a thousand eyes on my jug and half as many smiling faces cast ing inquiring glances at me. The jug now sits in the closet and the little Pickers know how to appreciate its presence. 1 am in possession of a letter about twice as long as an ox whip wherein it tells about so and so seeing two so and sos goingdown the river in a boat and the first so and so thought it was iiis boat and got some neighbors and arms and went down the river to cap ture his boat, only to find it was not his boat and had to apologize. Now I’m liable to find a flaw about this that some one has overlooked. It’s a doggone nearsighted man who can’t tell his boat from another across the river, and nearsightedness is not ex- cuseable where the balls are good. One time in my life I saw a gal that could dance. It was over at Cherokee Falls cotton mill and it was Mrs. George Mil!er(?) that did it, and it was ole Flaw that made the music for iier to do it by. Man, if I could get a gal that could dance like her I would turn old Bob out to graze, throw away my pencil, shoulder my old banjer and start out, giving open air exhibitions and passing around the hat for a change. But such luck may never happen to your humble servant. Flaw Picker. Interesting News From our Nation’s Capitol. Washington, D. C., Jan. 22,—It is neither flattering nor creditable to say that the most interesting thing in the senate during this week was a run ning deDatc, occupying the‘‘morning hour” of several days, on a resolution intended to make one of the two rival electric light companies of Washing ton stop work it was doing o.i a per mit from the commissioners of the District of Columbia to extend its lines, but it is strictly true all the same. Without repeating any of the intimations which made this debate interesting,or caring which, if either side was right, most sensible people will agree that the U. S. Senate ought to be able to find something more im portant to do than to be playing com mon council for the city of Washing ton. Not only was it a waste of time belonging to the people of the whole country, but the tone of the remarks was calculated to lessen the respect felt for the individual senators against whom the insinua tions of other senators were aimed, and consequently of the entire senate by the country at large. If the sen ate wishes to kill time for the purpose of preventing legislation it should find a better way to do it. The Secretary of State was the guest of Secretary of State-to-be (Sen ator Sherman) at this week’s meeting of the senate committee on Foreign Relations, and the questions fired at him about the different clauses of that arbitration treaty kept Secretary 01- ney busy for about an hour. There are differences of opinion as to what construction may be placed upon sev eral clauses of a treaty, and there is a disposition among senators to go slow in deciding whether the treaty shall be amended, rejected or ratified. Mr. Olney told the committee that he did not undet.stand how any construc tion could be put upon any clause of the treaty that would connect it in any way with the Monroe doctrine and assured the senators that there were no hidden meanings concealed in the treaty. Speaker Reed had a somewhat un ique experience this week, when he was waited on by a committee com posed of Representatives Hicks, of Pennsylvania; Curtis, of Kansas; Hooker, of New York; Herman, of Oregon; and Henry, of Indiana, who represented a petition signed by 208 members of the house, asking that time be given for the consileration of twenty-two bills on the house calen dar providing for public buildings in various sections of the country. The speaker pointed out to the committee the necessity for rigid economy in public expenditures caused by the ex isting annual deficit of $50,000,000, and the committee went back at him by pointing out that none of these bills carried an appropriation; that they only fixed the maximum cost of the proposed buildings, leaving the appropriations to be made by future congresses. The speaker expressed his dissent from this syetem, which he called mortgaging tho revenues of the government, and called attention to tiie absence of the New York cus tom house bill from the list. That bill was then added, but the speaker was candidly told that it could not be considered until tho other twenty-two had been given a fair hearing. Al though Mr. Reed made his opposition plain he did not give a definite an swer. When he does, if it bo un favorable, there may be a revolt in the house. The house committee on Public Lands made haste to clear itself of the imputation of intention to pigeon hole the Free Homestead bill, by re porting that measure back to the house just as it passed the senate. An attempt will be made in the house to amend the bill by exempting lands sold by the government as trustee for Indians. The senate committee on Postoffices has set apart tomorrow and Saturday, the 30th hist., for additional hearings on the Loud Bill, which recently passed the house. A resolution reported from tho house committee on coinage, requests the president to invite expressions of opinion from other governments as to the desirability and feasibility of the adoption of international coins to bo current in all countries adopting them, and to be especially adopted to invoice purposes. Surgeon General Wyman, of the U. S. Murine hospital service, says he feels no alarm over the probability that the bubonic plague, which is ravaging India and which is reported to have made its appearance in Eu rope. may get a foothold in this coun try, and that his action in issuing notice to all medical inspectors under him reimposing the U. S. quarantine regulations of 1894 relating to cholera at all foreign parts and places in- Pure Blood means sound health.

If “Billy” Mason, the Chicago ex- congrcssman who was this week elec ted by the Illinois legislature to suc ceed Senator Rainier, doesn’t take a few fails out of ‘‘senatorial dignity” before he has been a senator long it will be because his free and easy manners have undergone a radical change since he made fun for the loungers in the house cloak rooms, and because his repertory of stories have undergone an expurgation at tiie hands of 4 careful editor. Most peo ple liked “Billy,” but almighty few ever expected that he woull become a senator. A Fine South Carolina Water Power. A correspondent at Lockhart, 8. C., writes, descriptive of the waterpower there, that the Lockhart Cotton Mills own over 300 acres of land, and the Lockhart Shoals are continuous for fully three quarters of a mile and measure 17 feet fall, only 25 of which are utilized with little irtore than half the natural current of the river for the present mill. The motive power is 1,200 horse power turbine wheel which is only one-third of the available water power at that place which tiie river affords. It is a mar velous water power and mill site. Daily thousands of horse power go to waste, which liberal nature has for ages past offered to mankind, and only awaits intelligence and capital to develop into a gigantic manufac turing plant. Today, by a 25,000- spindle cotton mill, a brick store building 130x50 feet, two stories high, 100 dwelling houses, fuily two- thirds of which are brick, a cotton warehouse of 8 stalls, and the dam represent a plan of $050,000. This is only the beginning of what must nec essarily come. The water power at this shoal is measured at over 7,500 horse, and justifies the contempla tion of a $3,000,000 plant. It is one of the grenj est water powers in the South. As soon as markets and prices get in a satisfactory condition, the Textile Excelsior understands a Mill Xo. 2 v. iil be erected larger than the first. Tho time may not come for some time. A Murderer Arrested. Some months ago a negro named Bill Ardry was shot by another negro named Ed Edwards in a row which arose over a game of cards in the home of the former just across the branch in the eastern side of town. Monday Chief Camp received a tele gram from Yorkville that Edwards had been arrested. Officer Lipscomb went after bis man and landed him safely in Sheriff Dean’s hotel Tuesday to await trial.
