Of course, there are ox-1 cootlons, such as persistent claim iu inning, short-card men and loss o( | illon by road agents, but suoh ex captions only obtain when the offenders ^?titum to the district after having been escorted to its confines and warn ed not to come back on pain of doath. Such exceptions are violations of tho law Of the district, and tho violators must bo "hung up" as examples, there fore I suppress my opposition and side with the majority for the good of the camp. I am writing now of a locality sovonty-fivo milos outsido tho knowl edge of tho codo?the Lizard Moun tains of tho (Jolorado Uosort?whoro the habeas corpus has nover ponotrat od and the coup d'etat of tho nollo proeoqul is not pormlssiblo, savo on one condition, that tho suspooted man loavo cump forthwith. Tho time was when I was always roady to tako tho trail with tho " committee " and camp on It till tho offender was run down or out of tho district, and it has not boon SO very long ago si nee I experienced U change of heart. One night, on coming to my tont from ray claim in tho gulch, I found tho following noto, scrawled on tho hack of a blank location notico, stick ing in a cleft stick in front of tho tent: "Git yor boss an' gun an' come down to tho store as soon a,/, yor git this. Hi/nos ov importance. COMMITTEE." I knew what it meant, an all-night ride, possibly several days and nights, so I set about getting my supper and frying an extra quantity of bacon. Suppor ovor, I wrappod tho surplus bacon and a few squares of pilot broad in a bandanna, tied it with a canteen on tho saddle and fastened down the tont lly. Thon, taking up my rille and saddlo, I went to where my horso was plckotod, and, saddling, was soon at tho store, some t h rec-ipiart crs of a rallo down tho gulch. Tho store was only a big wall tent at tho forks of tho canyon, and tho stock consisted only of rough wearing apparel for miners, eofTeo, sugar, Hour, pilot broad, bacon frljoles (beans.) tobacco and a few kegu of whiskey, all packed into tho camp on burros. A group of minors, all arraod and sorao mounted, was gather ed about tho front of tho tent, while to one side luv ? he Me-uiv of ix man, tho upper part of his body covered with a ^^nlanket. " What's tho trouble, boys "' I asked, as I rode up. Two or three jerked their thumbs In tho direction of tho blanketed figure. " Who is it ??? " Albany." Albany was a man from York State and a native of its capital, upon whoso beauties, wealth, etc., ho was always doscanting and planning what he would do on his return there after having "made his pile." This had earned for him tho sobriquot of Albany. No ono know his other name, or had forgotten it, and Albany answered tho purpose as well as Tom Jones or John Smith. I dismounted, and, going to the prostrate figure, turned back tho blanket. Yes, It was Albany, His skull was crushed In a fearful manner, and his hair and tho lower part of his board matted with congealed blood. The boys had washod tho grime and blood from his faco in ordor to re cognize tho foaturos. "Who did it?" " Dunno, unless 'twas Injun Joo ; he's the only man missin' from camp. Jim son an' Kuintuck foun' Albany a lay In' in front ov his tont with his head busted open. His boss was gono, an' tho tent had bo'n ransackod an' his un, best clo'es an' a lot ov grub took, imsou como back an' got a boss an' they brought him down hero: then they started out to glvo tho word while some ov tho boys wont to tin' tho trail. Thoy's a lot ov barofooted tracks ai*oun,' an' some ov 'em's mado in tho blood whar his head laid, but none load away. That don't go for nothin,' though, 'cause Albany's shoes is gono. They foun' tho trail ov tho boss, an' it led over the hog-back, down Tough nut Guloh, Into Coyoto Pass, an' out on the desert toward 'tothor mountains, ft pitted towardyStinkln' Wells. He's got purty nigh twelve hours' start an'U prob'ly camp thar to-night, makin' Mule Springs to-morrer night." During this brief statomont others had como up, until all tho miners in tbe camp, something less than 100, wore present. According to tho custom, wo divided Into llvo groups, and a slip of paper for overy man in. each group was thrown into a hat. On ono slip in each hat was written "Go"; tho others wore blank. Tho men drawing tho "Go"slips formed tho vigilance committee to accompany the captain on tho pursuit. I drow a "Go." Tho captain gavo orders to havo all of Albany's camp out lit brought down to tho storo, and .ifter adding to our scant supplies wo tilled our cantoons at tho spring and tiled away down tho gulch to take up tho trail at tho foot of Coyoto Pass. In tho dim light wo discerned tho hoof prints of tho horso, evidently ridden at a gallop and head ed directly for Stinking Wells, tho noxt water hole. Paying no moro attention to the trail, wo rodo away into tho desert night right straight for the wells. Indian Joo was a half broed who never acknowleged his tribal origin, but drifted around from ono mining camp to another, picking up a precarious livelihood. Ho was not known as a bad Indian, could bo safely trusted with any mcssago or do any errand, and no minor where ho was known would objdet to giving him a meal or sovoral of thorn, if necessary. In fact, ho was considered good-natured ami. harmless, as Indians go, and it scorned almost impossiblo that ho could have committed so foul a criino, yet tho oircumstantial ovidencc was too strong to admit of doubt. It was early dawn whon wo rodo up to tho fow eotton woods that sur roundod the wells, or moro property "?iuk,"of topid alkali wator. Thoro was ovidonco of a recont camp, and down under tho ashes woro two or three half doad coals, showing that the camp had boon abandoned sovoral hours before. Wo had breakfasted in tho saddle, and after holding a brief eounoil wo decldod to camp there for the day. Tho trail of our quarry led straight for Mulo Spring, in tho moun tains milos away across that lovol stretch oi dosort. Ho had tho advant age in knowing that pursuit could come but from ono direction. If bo bad reached the mountains ho would have no difficulty in seeing us far out on that level, and by abandoning Iiis horse ho would safoiy laugh at his pursuers. We figured it out that ho would reach Mulo Spring possibly that night, and would camp thorc. By travelling at night wo would not only avoid tho heat and tho ohanco of being scon, but mako moro rapid progross, and by hard riding hoped to roach tho spring before ho broke camp in tho morning. Tne sun had been up an hour as wo bogau tho ascont of a " hog-back," beyond which In tho canyon below was Mule Spring. A noiso in tho bushes to the right attracted our attention : there, browsing on tho leaves, was Al bany's horse. Thoro was no mistak ing the big, raw-boned pinto, with the p cuiiarly blazed face. Tho saddlo had been removed, and a lari.it around his nook pioketod him to the hushes. Indian Joe u|*s still in lamp at the spring, but wl~ ft horse away off hore? We would soon know. An we spurred our jaded horses up tho ridgo a scattering volley of rule shots was tired from somowbere over in the canyon, and littlo oloude of dust wero knocked up around a heap of rocks on the summit of tho ridge. A puff of bluish whito smoke arose from among tho bowlders, and tho roport of a single shot carao down to I us on the morning air. There was a light ahoad, but what was tho naturo of it? As wo noared tho top we dis mounted and ran, in a stooping posture, up to the rooks, our rifles ready. Indian Joe turned from watohing the canyon below, between two bowl dors, a grim smile o.i Iiis swarthy face, his white tooth showing like a wolf's through Iiis scraggy black mustaoho. "Buenos dias amigos. You havo ridden hard and woll." "You air our prisoner, Joe," said the captain. " Bueno. Tako mo away from hore and I will thank you, sonor." " What's tho trouble ?" " Apache Kid and a dozen of his cowardly coyotes aro on tho other side of tho canyone; thoro were flftoon," and again that grim smilo passed over his face. "But you air a Injun, what thoy after you for ?" " Yes, but gruelas a Dios, I am not an Apache. Besides, have I not a gun, cartridges and a horso? I picketed my horso below thoro in tho bushes last night and mado my camp hero among tho rocks to watch for your ap proach, mi amigos, and was awake long boforo tho day. As tho night wont deopor into the canyon I saw about tho spring, Kid and his band. I At tho same time thoy found my trail and that of tho horso and followed it straight for tho rocks, but not far. Two lio bolow us at tho foot of tho hill; on tho rocks across yonder you may seo another." Hardly hud ho flnishod when anothor shattering volley camo from tho clUTs opposito, tho bullots glancing from tho rocks wont singing away In other directions. With an oath, "Jimson" lay astride his riflo and clasped his left forearm with his right hand. Turning back tho sleeve of his rough woolen shirt wo found a jagged holo In tho flesh, torn by a glancing bullet. With part of tho water left In Joe's canteen, wo moistonod a spot in tho dry earth, and, plastering tho wound with mud, bandaged it with tho bandanua from around his neck. T'ion wo flattened ourselves bohind tho rooks and waited. Wo worein for a light,that was ovldont. The murderous, merciless ronegado, Kid, was not the sort to retreat boforo our small force, leaving his thrco dead unavenged. It was useless for us to try to escapo: our horses wero tired out, whllo bis were fresh. Ho know that his single enemy bad been reinforced, but our thirsty horses having already crossed tho divido to tho spring told him how small tho forco was. On tho opposito side wo occasionally caught sight of a red blanket inviting a shot, which was replied to from u dozen seemingly in accessible placos. "Thoy's only ono thing to do, said tho captain. " Wo'vo got tor stay hero an' try tor keep 'cm otT tel night, an' then make a sneak for camp, pcrvidin' they dou't git our bosses." Howe/or, tho latter had al roady drank their fill, and wero coming back over tho hog-back to graze. As the day wore on tho sun's power increased, und beat down on us with torrlblo force. Tho rocks were blister ing hot, and tho heat radiated from them with scorching olTect. Our thirst grow intolerable. Our canteens had been emptied during tho night ride, and Joe's contained less than a half pint, which wo carefully treasured against an emergency. There was not a bush or weed for shado among the bowldors, nothing but tho blistering rocks and tho hot, dry earth. Along about noon Kaintuck carelessly expos ed his shoulder for a moment, and had it badly creased by a bullet. The mud poultice required for tho wound took tho last of the water in Joo's canteen. By three o'clock in tho afternoon tho wounded men wero alumst crazed for water, which wo could see purling about tho rocks In tho bottom of the canyon less than 1U0 yards bolow, and the slf>ht only increased tho thirst of all. Joe wus tho only man that did not complain, but lay flat on bio stomach motionless save when ho lowered his head to glance between tho sights of bis rillo or to throw another cartridge Into tho barrol. Thoro was absolutely no shelter in tho canyon by which tho spring could be reached. Nothing but tho bare brown hillside, tho sandy bed of tho canyon strewn with small bowlders, tho spring, and 100 yards beyond tho clUTs with death lurking at every point of van tage. A horned toad could not have hopped unseen at any spot in tho entire distance. " l'vo got ter havo some water," growled Jimson between his teeth. Joo turned his head. "'Thoro is a spring sovoral miles up tho canyon," he said to the captain. " I can tako tho canteens, and by slipping back down the hill can go and como with wator in less than an hour. Tho captain grinned sarcastically. "Putty good schomo, Joe, but 'twont work. Wo'vo got you, an' wo'rc all goin' tor seo this thing through to gothor." Joe silently turned his face back to tho crevice botwocn tho bowl ders and resumed his watch. An hour passed. Picking up a can teen, Kaintuck. crazed with thirst, half started to his foot, but was jerked down by tho captain just in tlmo to es cape a volloy. " Whar you goin' V" " l'vo got ter hev some wator, an' I'm goin' tor tho spring," replied Kain tuck, struggling to free his unwounded shoulder from the firm grip. "No, Sonor, 1 will go." Kaintuck stopped struggling, and wo gazed at Joo In surprise. "It air al most sure death," at last said the cap tain. Joo looked him squrro in tho oyes for an instant, then shrugged nis shoulder. " Yes, scnor ;" but wo un derstood. Taking too canteens, ho tied too cartridges around tho nock of oaoh. " I will throw tho canteens in tho spring: the cartridges will pull the mouths bolow tho water; while they aro filling I will try to kocp'from boing hit. You must keep up a con stant liring and hope for my roturn." As ho aroso to his knees ho said : " I will tell you the truth: I killed Al bany. I wanted tobacco; ho rofused mo; wo wore both drunk. I went to tako tho tobacco, and ho struck mo: I knocked him down and ho drew his revolver, but I struck him with a club boforo he could .hoot. "Tho sight of his blood maddened mo, and-you know tho rest." Ho gathered up tho straps of tho cantoons. " I am going ; will you say good-bye ?" Silently eacli man extended his hand; but the copnor-colorod ono was the stoadlst of tho lot. Crouching, ho sprang over tho barricade of bowldors with an " Ad los, amigos" (Adlon, frionds), and wont leaping like a moun tain lion down tho bare slopo. Ho was at tho spring boforo tho Apaches had recovered from tholr surprise. Throwing tho canteens In tho wator, ho began a series of gyrations around the spring, his stops timed by some woird song whioh wo did not under stand, but which ovidontly maddened the Apaches, who at onco bognn a rapid flro on the dancer. Some paid dearly for tho reckloss exposnro of tholr porsoiis. In a fow moment Joo mado a sweep with his hands and cumo bounding back up tho slopo, two canteens in oach hand. Wo wero too oxcitcd to eoni inue our fusll lado Into tho cliffs boyond. With ovory nerve strained and broaths sus pended wo lay there and watched every stop of that dark-skin nod liguro running through tho bail of death for our llvos and his. "Oh, Qod, give him a minute more," came uncomcl* (usly from our gjrizzled old oaptaip. Half way up and^unhnrt. God, hpw fast those Apaches can shoot! There, ho is down ! No, up again, but with the four canteens in his left hand, the right aria hanging limp and tho shoul der drooping. Oo ho staggers ; anoth er era?h from the>rifles ; down he goes ugain, struggles to rise, but fails and holding the canteous upright tries to drag4mnsolf toward us. There wa8 a olattcr among the rooks us ritles wcro east asldo, and forgetting their thirst and wounds, six men leap ed over tho bowlders and rau to the fallen Indian, who, gashing on tho hillside, still held tho canteons so tho water would not spill. Four of us grabbed him in our arms, Jimson and Kaintuok took tho cantoons and wo rau to the rook. As we did so there ! was a chorus of yolls from tho cliffs aud tho number of shots seomed re doubled, but wo gained tho shelter of our barricade uuhurtand laid our bur den down tenderly. As wo did so ho spat out a groat mouthful of blood and gashod: "-Elagua|(tho water)?did?you." Wo hold a canteen to his lips, but he turned away his hoad. " No- muy poco (very little) save it." Then ho close.1 his eyes and gasping and spit ting out tho strangling Wood. Thoro was absolutely uo hope for him. Ho j had been literally shot to piocos. His right arm and shoulder woro shatter ed ; anothei bullet had struck him in the.'kidneys, and two moro had gono straight through him, from baok to front. He lay thero gasping for a few moments, then suddenly Vaisodhimself on his loft el) iow, tried to speak, but fell back, bis limbs straightonod convulsi vely aud?Albany was avongod. Wo moved tho body to ouo sido, out of the way. Tho captain picked up a canteon and, removing his hat, bowed his bared head toward Joo in silout acknowledgment, and alter drinking passed tho canteou. Having satisfied our thirst wo took up our rittes, and tho monotonous firing continued. 14 Tan-a-ra, tan-a-ra, tan-a-ra ta-ra," came tho (dear notes of a buglo from down tho gulch, just after a volley and a squad of Troop of tho 10th galloped around u bond, intho canyon on tho trail of tho renegade Kid. Then thors was a scattering on tho cliffs, and wo had our innings at tho scurrying In dians. 4; The surgeon is with tho ambulance two miles bolow if you noed him!" yelled tho licutonant in command, as dismounting tho squad ho took to tho mountains in pursuit. Wo went down to tho spring and waited for the ambu lance to como up. Oar captain bor rowed a pick and shovel, and while tho surgeon dressed the wounds of Jimson aud Kaintuck tho rest of us dug a grave for .Too among tho rocks where ho died. It was nearly finished when tho surgeon and our two com"ados came up. " That's right, dig it doop ! I see ho is an Indian," said tho surgeou. Tho captain straightonod up in tho grave, a reproving look on his faeo. " Yos, sir, ho air only a Injun but, sir, he died 'iko a man." Wrapping Joo in his blankets, wo lowered his stilton ing body into tho grave with our lariats, then wo stood sllont and gazed at tho captain. Ho thought for a mom ent and, removing his old weather beaten hat , said : "1 dunno what tor say, boys, but I've heord ur read som'ors that 'greater love hath no man than this.' " Thon wo filled tho gravo, heaped it around with tho bowlders to protect it from thoeoyotes, and picking up our rifles turned to depart. But evidently a thought of other days eamo over our old captain, for ho paused, his bluo shirtcd figure straightened, to its full height, tho heels of his rough mining boots eamo togothcr with a chug. "Halt!" Ono look at him, and at least four of tho party know what was coming. ";Tention, squad! Heady! Fire I and a soldier's last salute rang out on tho evening air. Then wo started back for camp across that weary stroteh of desert. Now, whenever I receive word from tho committee, I seo a bare, brown hilltop, and on its summit a rounded heaps of stones, from which littlo clouds of bluish-white smoko are slowly drifting.?St. Louis Globe-Democrat. TO KEEP SWEET POTATOES. It Will Take Some Trouble, but I;ooUh lake it Would Pay. A Virginian in writing to Homo and Farm concerning methods of keeping swoet potatoes, says ono who has boon very successful in that lino pursuod tho following plan : Select a spot in your gardon from which tho water drains readily, dig a trench around a spot as largo as you wish tho mound, throwing up the earth so as to raiso it about ten or twelve inches above tho trench. On this place a layer of dry soil or road sand. In tho middle of this set up a kind of pipe for the escape of heated air, made of four three-inoh wido, inoh thiek planks, each piece bored quito thickly with big auger holes (ono and one half inches in diametor), tho holes say about six incites apart, from bottom to top of pipo. As soon as tho potatoes are dug, cany them to this place and pile thorn up around this pipo, cono sbaped, as these kilns generally are. When you have piled up all your potatoos take dry straw, and thon on this throw dry dirt or sand until it is about eight or ton Inches thick all over. After all is mounded up tho pipo should extend at loast a foot and a half ahovo tho top. In ordinary woather leave this upon, but when frosty, cold nights or days come, stuff some straw or grass down tho pipo, rather bolow tho surface of top of mound, and when it gets warm again pull it out. In real cold winter weathor throw an old pieeo of carpet or something over tho pipo in addi tion. Make, a sholter over tho mound so that it will not get wot. Plant four posts, two being, say about two foot higher than tho othor two; nail a strip at tho top of tho two- higher ones and another at the top of tho lowor ones : over this nail somo boards or planks so as to turn rain and you have a very good sholtor. I have found that all vegetables put up in theso mounds keep better from being pro tected from rains and suns, in othor words kept dry. It is well to at least have two mounds for your potatoes, and as they aro put away, separate tho small ones from tho largor, keep ing tho smaller ones for seed, which in almost ovory neighborhood you oan find ready salo in the spring. I need not say, perhaps, but will, that it is best to get out onough potatoes to last for a woek or so at a time, as of course dally oponing makes them moro liablo to hurt. Every ono can arraugo so as to keep a small quantity from hurting boforo using. Some will say that this is too much trouble : but if you want to kcop sweot potatoos you havo cortalnly to tako trouble, and if tho end is gained by simply filling up tho pipo in cold weather and opening it in tho mlldor; that's a small trouble, I think. ?It is rumored in railroad circles that George Vandorbilt, who owns so many thousands of acres of lands in North Carolina, is about to onter tho field of railroad building as a means of getting somo of his timber to market. The lino which it is said ho will build is from Knovillo to Audorsoti. S. 0., via Walhalla. A largo part of tho lino is ul ready graded and should Van dorbilt build tho road, it will deeroaso tho distance betweon Cinuinattl and tho South Atlantic Coast ovor 100 miles. Tho road, together with tho Knoxvldo, Cumborland Gap and Cin cinnati railroad and tho Port Poyal and Wcstorn Carolina will givo an air line from Cinoinatl to Augusta. Carpontor Hros., Groonvillo, S.

Somo aro taken and somo aro loft, but horo was no time *for words or tears: no mlnistors of lovo, no shroud, no collln, no flowers, no funoral, no mournors, no grave. What is lifo but a porll ? Who Is safo V Kvory now and then wo road of some torriblo visitation somewhere. Away down on the Rio Grando a fow days ago thero was an awful Hood that swept scoros into otornity. Fire in one place and flood in another, and pesti lonco across tho sons. And yot wo hurry on and take no solemn heed. Wo do not stop 0V6U foi a moment to wocp with those who weep. I sat In the veranda of tho Holl house on Pcachtreo street in Atlanta. Beauti ful Peachtrco that is paved with as phalt and adorned with sbude and grass and flowers and palaces. For an hour 1 sat alone and watched the cease* loss t rains of carriages and street ears aud vehiclos of all kinds, thronged with gay and happy people?fuir wo mon and lovoly children, with not a thought of pain or danger, while In auothor portion of God's vineyard there woro hundreds of people hunting for tho doad?gathering up tho blackened corpses of those who only a day or two boforo woro just as happy, and felt just as secure as theso good puoplo on Poachtroo. Friends, let us stop a mo ment and ponder upon tho insecurity of life. Lot us bo thankful that no such calamity hath bcfalluu us. Well, it looks liko - 'o havo seen tho worst of tho financial v.vlsis. Wo havo been at tho bottom and tho situation is obliged to improve Somo say that thoro can bo starvation in the midst of plenty, but I don't bollovo It. It took all tho two last years' crops to pay the people's debts and get thorn back to economy, and now, down here in Dixie is another abundant Crop that will BOatter money broadcast all over the South. Three hundred millions for cotton and one hundred millions for surplus corn is a heap of money, and it will como to stay. It won't go North to pay debts, and it will havo to go into cotton mills, oil mills, knitting mills, canning factories, or some other industries that will give employment to labor. Here is my county, that is about out of debt, that will make at least ten thousand bales of cotton, and have 250,000 bushels of corn to sell. There is half a million dollars to spare. Our farmers aro raising their own moat and tho crop of potatoos is splen did. Everything tboy have to buy is cheap oxcopt coffee, and the tariff will make all woolen goods still cheaper. A letter from my son who is in Eng* 'and, says ho bought a first-class cassi moro suit of clothes for $10, and they will be nearly as cheap here this winter, since the high tariff has been taken off. Blankets will be almost half price. Our wool factories aro howling about this, but it will turn out all right in the long run. Powers ?fe Wightman howled awfully when tho duty was taken off of quinine and it dropped from $;{ an ounce to 50 cents. But they didont quit tho business, as they threatened, and aro making more monoy on quinine than they over did. Thero is nothing like turning an infant industry loose to shift for itsolf. A son can lean upon the old man until ho thinks ho can't go it alone, but bo can. The old eagles havo to push their young ones out of the nest or they never would leave it, but would stay there just as long as the parents would feed them. Low prices stimulate industry and teach economy and cause now methods to be invented. When pig iron drop ped from $114 a ton to $1"> iron men swore they couldent make it at that price, but they did. Then it dropped again to $12 and they aro making it still. Farmers said they couldent nor they wouldont grow cotton for 7 cents, but they keep on and will bo glad to get (ii cents for this crop. Now, if wo can all havo more gratitude and less politics wo will bo better citizens and and better Christians. It is very hard to enjoy roligion on an empty stomach and almost impossible to got it. Hun ger and misery makes atheists and anarchists. Old Mrs. .lob said : "Curso God and dio," and most every man but Job would havo done it. Had luck and trouble will shake tho faith of tho average Christian?the Christian who has a kind of summer religion. Most ovcry man can enjoy religion if he has a pookotfulof money, or if he can make a bargain with thoLord like old Jacob did when he was fleeing from Ksau. " ff the Lord will bo with mo and givo mo bread to oat and rai ment to put on so that I como to ray father's house in peace, thus shall the Lord bo my God." That would bo a vory popular roligion. I would bo willing to promiso the Lord right now THEY'RE NOT ALL ALIKE ?blood medicines. There's only one that is so far-reaching and so unfail ing in its offootf) that it can be guar anteed to do all that's promised for it. That is Dr. Piorco's Golden Medical Discovery. If that doesn't benefit or cure, you hove your money back. It's not liko tho sarsaparillas or ordinary Spring medicines. They claim to do good in March, April, and May. All the year round, and in all cases, the "Discovery" purifies the blood as nothing elso ean. Every blood-taint and disorder, Eczema, Tetter, Salt-rb/min, Erysipelas, Boils, Carbuncles, Enlarged Glands, Tu mors and Scalp Diseases, and tho worst forms ot Scrofula, are com pletely and permanently cured by it. Buy of reliable dealers. With any others, something else that pays them better will probably bo urged as " just as good." It may bo, for them; hut it can't bo, for you. For colic, cramps, and pains in stomach, nothing equals Dr. Pieroe's Extract of Smart-Weed., Highest of all in Leavening Power.?Latest U. S. Gov't Report Royal ABSOLUTELY PURE that if Ho would, in soino way, lot mo got bold of a hundred thousand dollars, I would glvo half of It to charity and tho church. That is what may bo called personal religion. We havo had a good deal of good preaching in In our town lately, and it holps every body. It makes a man " do justly, love morcy and walk humbly" for u whilo, anyhow. It makes us think less of ourselves and moro of our neigh- ; bora, and our prayors do us more good. - "He prayeth best wholoveth most i All things great and small : For tho dear God wholoveth us. Ho mado and lovothall." Tho kind, loving, tender proachlng of tho gospel will take tho conooit out | of a man. Sensation and slang may draw and amuso and oven reform, but truo religion is not caught by jokes and smile.. Hoard a preachor say that a fow years ago thero were sovou ty-flvo porsons joined a church In Mis isslppi whore ho Is now preaching. They joined during a revival. They went in on a tidal wave, and not OHO kept what ho thought bo had got?not one. The preacher found tbolr names on tho hooks, but they bad all relapsed, and one of the women was soiling whiskey behind a bar. It is said of love that, "'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to havo loved at all I" Hut that won't do for religion. It is lKsttor not to vow than to vow and not pray. BILL AttP.

My Dear Sir: From careful examina tion of tho formation and soil of South Carolina, as given in a book published by tho Stato Hoard of Agriculture of South Carolina, 1 believo you havo I ono of tho best States In tho Union for ? tho cultivation of tho sugar beet and I tho manufacture of beet sugar. It Is ! a fact that the cultivation of tho sugar I beet under tin) scicntilic method neoos I stiry in its success increases tho pro j duotivenoss of the ground for other ? crops. It Is also a particularly hardy plant, ad justing itsolf withoutdilliculty to conditions of soil and climate with j extreme tenacity of life and sue* I cecding where man other agricul ! tural products would under tho same [ conditions bo a total failure. Tho sugar beet would average In most ' parts of the State fifteen tons per acre, ! and would sell for $4.50 to $? a ton at ' the factory. Factories could bo estab i L is bed on your navigable rivers and j railroad lines and located so as to be convenient to tho largest number of boot sugar producers. I write you be cause ] have been deeply interested in your administration and the able manner in which you have conducted it and because 1 liko your Stato and want to sco it prosper. How is youi Hoard of Agriculture formed ? Do you appoint it V Could you secure nu ; a position to experiment with raising j sugar beets in your State? I know j the introduction of sugar beet culture J and the manufacture of beet sugai would lie of tho utmost value to.your ! Statu and I would he pleased to have ; your personal views in relation to the '. same. T ike your coast counties from I I Joan fort to Horry : then the next tier i from fJarnwoll to Marlboro: then the l next, from A ikon to Chesterfield ; and j next Edgoflcld to Lancaster, all possess tho soil suitable to sugar beet culture , and would produce tho best results, making from $.">0 to $00 per acre clear profit, and a sure crop, no danger of j failure. If you can inaugurate this : new source of wealth it will be a Utting j crown to your administratirn. Will : your kindly lot mo hoar from you ? 1 will furnish you satisfactory re ferences if there is a chance lor busi ness. Respectfully yours. ii. EL Ferguson. Governor Till man's answer was as follows: Columbia, s. c, Sept. 10. R. U. Ferguson, Chicago, 111. Dear Si<-: Your letter of Septem ber 4th received. In reply I would say that experiments in t he culture of tho various varieties of beets, includ ing the sugar boots, have been made in this State, time and time again, and there Is no doubt whatever as to our soil and climate being well suited to beet culture. The difticuPy which I foresee in developing the sugar in dustry hero will bo lack of capital to manufacture the beet and tho sugar. The production of tho beet in paying quantities will bo easy. The skilled labor, confined mainly to superinten dence, can bo easily obtained in Europe. Tho question is, who will furnish tho machinery to make up the product ? I am particularly interested in developing the production of any new crop that will take the place of cotton in our agriculture, and will bo glad to have you give me. if you are familiar with the subject, estimates on the cost of a plant to manufacture beets into sugar. Wo have largo areas Of very fertile, cheap lands now devott d to (rotten culture. Our farmers run easily supply all tho beets at prices as oilOap as they can bo produced any where in the world. The time is propitious for enlisting their support to any now agricultural production which prom 1808 profit, as cotton at pre sent prices yields none. Wo have, no Stato Hoard of Agricul ture at this time but you might cor respond with tho director of tho ox peri mental station located at Clomson Col logo, but as I have already told you. if somebody will buy tho sugar beet at the prices you name our farmers will contract to cultivate them according to instruction and to deliver any quantity. .il shall bo glad to hear from you fur ther on this Important subjeet.

Sund, i 1.1 i.-l Hastened (u .Pile It ?Ijobt For Two Wee I. - . Washington, I>. O, September 13. ?The marriage license of President Grover Cleveland a?d Frunces Folsotu bus just been tiled in tho oiiioo of tho clerk of tho district supremo court by Rev. JJyronSounderluud, who perform ed the marriage ceremony. Along with Mr. "Cleveland's licento were some 200 other licenses, being nil the murriage permits of tho couples whom Dr. Suudcrluud hud united in wedlock since 1871. Tho law of tho djstrict provides that the minister performing u nun ringe ceremony sbull return tho license, properly certified by him, to the olot'K of the supremo court, but it thoroughly omits to fix any time limit within which these re turns must be made. The result is that the Washington clergymen mako their reports as fancy dictates. Dr. Sundorland apparently bad made no returns for the lust twenty years. An effort was made at the. last session of Congross to correct this evil, anil a bill was introduced in tho house com pelling all clergymen to report mar? ringen within a fortnight after tho ceremony bad been performed by them. Tho bill failed to become a law, but Dr. Sunderlaud only knew that the bill had been introduced. Beliovlngit laid passed, be carried, through the sweltering heat, the 200 permits to marry, aud was disgusted to learn at l tho clerk's ollico that his labor bad j been needless and that be might have : kept the licenses a few decades more, j However, having brought them to the j olliee and feeling no desire to lug them I homo again, Dr. Sundorland pnlloso ! phically aeeeopted the situation and , bled all the certificates. Ho says that President Cleveland's i marriage certificate mysteriously dis | appeared after the ceremony, but was roturnod to him about two weeks later by a book seller of this city. Dr. Sun dorland vouohsaos no explanation of tho whereabouts of the important docu ment during those two Weeks. It has now been earofully tiled away. A VETERAN'S VERDICT. The War Is Ovor.

They sued the Illinois Central Railroad Company for upwards of $500,000, basing tho suit upon a Claim that tho tiro originated from sparks thrown out by a switching on gino of that company passing ovor the bolt road, in proximity to the press, whore tho lire originated. Tho case was argued at length and submitted last February, the company being ably represented by its local attorneys, while tho claimants had as counsel some of the ablest Southern lawyers. Judge Theard of tho Civil District Court delivered an oral opinion in favor of tho Illinois Central Company, busing it upon the fact that the hut - den of proof rested with the plaintiffs who had failed to establish their ease by showing that the fire really did ori ginate as charged by them.
