WI WINNSJ3OORO, 8, C, SATRDAY, Apill 9, 1 1 asi, fi XCOL DN. Atu0Ci'gs Entcot. Ar th reetit mIarriage Inl Now York- of a daughter of P'rofessor Morse i Flrarnz Hummel, the cole brated pianist, one of the most notable presals was a check for a considera ble sumn of m1oney, preseted to the bride by Saitel J.. Tijdei, a life-long friend. MAc. Greoiu aiei, residlent, of the Metropolitan National Batik of New York, has given fifty thousand dollarsj to Emory College, Georgi..,, and at like suim to the Wesilyan Female Coalege inl the samie State. Verily, soic of the 'corlorpatioos have souls. As TaxE usury law in North Carolina broke up the building and loan asso ciations, whicl were believed then to be doing erood, the Legislature of that State has just pass.ed .a law granting thorn a special exemption, and allow- i Ing thMl .tO charge a smail premium over and above the legal rate of Inter est. It strikes us that this Is a pecm. liar proceeding. Why building and loan associations should be especially protec.ted does not appear. They s.re, theoretleally, beneficial, but experi once shows that they don't do so much for borrowers after all. TnE authorship of the celebrated Morey-Chinese letter, attributed to Garfield and used with great effect In California, is still'irvolved in mystery. It will be remembered that a niwspa per man, naned Phelp, was arrested on the charge of forgery, and the United States District Attorney made a grand parade over what it-ported to be a Democratic coint iracy. Now, however, proceedings will be with drawn against Phelp, and It will be stated that they were unfounded from the very beginning. Pholp threatens to commence snit against the District Attorney for falso linrisonment, and againit George H. Bliss for malicious prosecution. In the meantimne-who wrote the letter? MUNICIPAL electionis in the West have been attended with some curious results. Chicago is considered a lie. publican stronghold, and It gave Gar field several thousand majority. Last year the Democrats Olected the mayor, owing to a Socialist candidate being In the field. Ott Wedneisday lie was re-elected over ila Republican oppo nent by six thousand majority. Cin cinati, which went Republican last Novembor, elects a Democratic mu nicipal ticket this time. The temper aice people aid the saloon keepers both scratc-hed the Republican candi date, int consequence of his duplicityv -..dtmibg theip.ast year QOtt the other .eCa ani up615rlar rfito, andc his * Itadical opponent doubled him. New * ~ York, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Chrica * go, Clnnratl and Boston have Demo cratic mray'ol-s. There Ia life in the old party yet.________ RitnLQA1611ials lit South Carolia bewail the prejudides of" the people. They aflirm that thre tailroads are poor, brokeni down conicerns, Just re covering from the efibets of the war anid tire ensuing stagnation of busi ness, and that they are doing all they cant for the public good. Ini answer to this we wish to know why It is that a box of freight shipped to Winneboro by way of Charlestotn has to remaaina in the depot in Columibia until the mer chant in Wlnnsbor-o is notifled to send money down to the South Caro lina Railroad agent to prepay freighrt on the Charlotte Road to Winunsboro. This practically meanas prhlibitiont, andc Is Irn direct contraventlon of the charter and the laws. Neither cant it be asser-ted that criticism of tis wav of doing businiess is meraely unreasona * ~ ble "prejudice against ralilroads." It is just this that gives rise to the so called prejudice, and it is just this that convices all thhiaking mern of the ne cessity of creating a comnmissionm with full powers to hold the roads in check. It makes not a str-aw's difierence to the WVinnsbor-o mer-chant whether the roads hate or love earch'other. All be demands is that freight shipped to hrim over any line in South Cartolinra srhll * ~ be delivered without, Yexatlours delays. Let us see whether the State can en-. forcs her laws. Tuan Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad was sold to a comminttee of * ~ bondholders for $11,000. Tire Rich mond and D~auvlloe mnad. rno bid upon it. It Is predicted that the present ownaers will reor-ganlze the road, cour bine it with the Spartanburg and Unalen Rload, arid then gell out to other piar-ties ont a speculation. As thte Richa mornd anrd Dantville has about bought * ~ up the State of South Car-olina, It will most probably take in thre Spar-tanrburg and Asheville Road also; not that It las any special neced for- t,. but to keep some other cor-poration from gottiug hold of it. A thr-ought route to the West Is promised by way of Asheville as soon as coertain links are comnpleted, * and if the South Carolina Road could get it, it would be a great thing for Charleston, As that road is in tho hiandcs of the Courts It canm do nrothuing, but he chaiscel out of Western tr-ado. Augusta Is alarmed at the combina tienrs hostile to her Interests, andi prao p)oses to build a road to Knoxville, so as to secure ind~ep~endenit comnmuneoa tioni with tinciaunatI and other North' westernr cntres of trade. Nowadays the weifmre of cities de pends 'ori tire digestion of railr-oad - kings. They alv be made and un made at the scr-atch of a pien, aurthoriz ing-a- ftriht tar-ifl. T1his should not be. Thc constitution gurautees equal rights to every one, and to bottle up towns and even States is lin direct con travenrtion of' Its provisions. Some thing must be done to cheek tihe ag gressions of lhe railroads. A I&12' 20 SLADIC, T.s AA CDIM. Messngem Written on Slates on the Sido Turned '3 oward the Tablo.-A Spirrit that Did Not p-ii His Own Name Correctly A Spirit's Hand that Took Liberties. Fron the New York Tribune. Dr. Slade now makes his home In New York. A reporter of the Tr. I buine, iII search of "phenromenra," call ed oan him the other day. lie found a I large, itidsone, wel)-dressed man, with n1o1h1ing peculiarrr about im11 ex cept a kind of uncraIny look ir his blue eyes,-seated In a sunny bed room I on the second floor of a brown stone house in one of the up town streets. The doctor wore ain abundanrce of C)stly jeweiry, and his surroundings siowed him to be in comfortable and rather luxurious circumstances, A plaiin valmit table of very light coni structii., about four feet square, stood ill tire middle of tire roomr. Near one of tie windows was a pile of ordinary sehlool sates. Without asking hi11 visitor's name the doctor invited him to sit down at rte table, and, taking one of the slates from tire pile, he put a bit If penell on It about a6 bi as a kernel of' rice, and, holding it' below the table and close.ly against it, asked If the spirit would write. There was a scratching sound, and the slate, onr being removed, showed the word "Yes." "Now," said the doctor, addressing the visitor, "If there is any friend you want to hear fromn write tire name on a slate irder the table, so I can see It." The reporter wrote rather illegibly "Augustus Steele," and rubbed the name out. I'lhei Ie placed the slate onr top of the table w It a bit of pencil under It, and put his hanrds oar it, to gether with those of tie doctor. Imt mediately there began a scratching sound, as ifwriting was going oar be neath the slate. After a 'while the scratching ceased arrd there came three raps. "That's to show that they are through," said the doctor. (Mdurmns always speak of their "control" Iln tire plural number, though it iay profess to be but one personl.) The reporter turned the slate over, and sure enrotur it. wits written fuil, lit a clear, legible hand, with a, mes sage asserting that the plenornenon was a Rproof of a future life. Tire sig nature was A. Steel-the fhral e of the nane written by the reporter being wanting, aid only the initial of the first name being written. It seemed a little queer thut the spirit should have forgotten how to spell his ow 11 rarr1e. Thre reporter then tried various ex perimercnrts with tire sates, selecting fresh ones frorh tire pile and puttinrg them under and upon the table in different positions. Writing was pro duced onr them lin everv case when 81ade's hands touched t Iem. Finally ie said Ie. wanted to try an experi ment. Heo put two slates together and placed themn on tire visitor's oustreteh ed left arm near tie neck, keeping one hanrd resting oar the upper slate. Then tire t wo joinred hanrds. Tire wrIting was plainly legible anrd tire upper slate was partly covered on tire lower surface with a umessage withouut any reporter'to~uc iiho ins dof'di doctor. At once the sounad of tire bit of pencil wriltinrg wvas heard. Tire re porter lifted Iris left hanrd from tihe doe tor's and it ceased. Hie put Iris hrand dowrn arid it beganr again. Tis ex perimen'ut was fregnerrtly repeated. Evidenitly It was essential that a ug - nretre cornnectiorn shroid be established bet Ween $lade'sn hrands and tire slate thr'oukrh tire body of' tire r'eporter. ''Now put bothr your feet err mnine," said Slarde' "put your left harad ont both itnrinre ire eon the table, anad hrold a slate trander tihe table wih your right hrrand." Tire r'epor'ter obeved Insrtr'uc tionts r'egardlessr of' possible corns oar tire doctor's feet, anad held the slate as directed. It was Jer'ked out of iris haud by somre in visible force, carriedl be nreathr thre table anrd br'oughrtup oar tihe opposite side. A iorng pencri was thenr patedt onr tire table, It was throw rn so thrat It de'scribed a curve arnd fell onr top of the table, a f'eat Implossible to explabrr by air known laws of force applied to pr'oectiles. "Perhlaps threy will play on the accordeona," said tire doctor, takirn up a chreap little inistrumrlenrt arnd hrolding it witir oneo hrand so that thre keys were under tire table out of sight, w irile his hrand wans vIsible. Ils other hanrd a'ested oan the tarble arnd ihis feet were still lprisonrers benreathi thre stout boots of iris visitor. A lane was played in farir atyle, trad a sudden flamrne unrder thre table failed to r'evcal anyvthuing mnanipjulatinig tire keys. Th'le plavinrg stopped as soon as tihe keys camre in vie w anad began again tire nmerrt threy were orut of sighrt. 'There was a variety of diablerile of this sor't, suach as tihe liftinrg of tire table a loot above thre floor when all hanrds wvero oar It, anid t umrbling~ tire chairs about. No eff'or'ts wvith harnds, feet or eyes could discover aunythuing belowv tire table but Its four legs and the four legs of the othrers. The sun was streamring inr at tire two big windows arid ctheimstances wer'e highrly un favorabie for the priodunctionr of' conr Jur'or's tricks. Somretina begant frum blinr abourt thre knees of tie r'epor'ter raid >lurckltr at ihis tr'ousers. Rlestint hris left hrani on the table, ire put Iris r'ighrt under the table.
