Smaller Crop and Better Prices.
[From the Augusta Chronicle.]
Mr. Alfred B. Shepperson,
who is one of the most intelli
gent and reliable cotton experts
in the country, estimates the
reduction in acreage at 15 per
cent and in fertilizers at 30 per
cent as compared with last year.
With like seasons this would
give us a crop of not more than
7,500,000 bales, but with unfav
orable weather this estimate
would be reduced, and the crop
of this year is still subject to
drawbacks. Let the facts of
reduced acreage of 15 per c?nt
and of reduced fertilizers of 30
S er cent—of which there is no
oubt in our minds—become im
pressed upon consumers at
home and abroad, and a better
tone add stiffer prices will ob
tain. As Mr. Shepperson says,
“A reduction in the new crop of
1,500,000 to 2,000,000 bales, as
compared with the previous
crop, will cause a rapid disap
pearance of the present enor
mous stocks of cotton in all the
markets of the world, and re
adjustment of prices upon a
higher plane.”
The Trials In Tennessee.
Nashville, August 26.-
-All
remains quiet at Coal Creek. A
detachment of troops was sent
to Oliver Springs yesterday to
make arrests. They have not
returned to camp. The trial of
the arrested miners 'began yes
terday before a Judge of the
C :ace at Clinton. The case of
onroe was taken up, but not
’ concluded when the Court ad
journed. Assistant Labor Com
missioner Allen appeared at
Coal Creek yesterday and sur-
rended. He was released upon
bond. In this city there are no
further developments. Super
intendent of Prisons Wade is

crowd back and rnns them reds 'leven
miles and kills another.
"Why, dnm me! he got two ponies
ont of that scrap, and he gathered np
more wampnm, bows, Hirers, toma
hawks, knives and sich than any six of
ns had collected in five years. When 1
got abont I helped him to box and ship
'em to some clnb in New York. ’Pears
to me it was smnthin like the Manhattan
clnb. Leastwise, it had a 'tarnal longish
naina, and the feller was a member.”
“And you came to like him?”
"Say! He kin hev all I’ve got In this
world any time he axes for it. I made
a big mistake sizin him up. He could
beat any of us with the pistol, and the
feller who took hold of him for a rassle
was throwed sky high before he could
bite his terbacker. He could run like a
deer, outjnmp a kangaroo and we
conldn't find a broncho who could buck
him off.”
“And that's why you interfered, is it?”

To Taka OV Old Point.
It is very seldom now that you see a
painter Irani off old paint with a spirit
lamp or torch, though there are still a
few who stick to the old method. The
easiest way to clean paint off wood, or
even metal, is to mix lime and salsoda
pretty thickly in water and then apply
freely with a brush. After a short time
the paint can be scraped off without diffl-
cnlty. Any amateur can use this recipe;
only a little care is advisable, as the
mistnre will remove skin from the
hands or face even more rapidly than it
will remove paint from wood or metal.

Willing Netghtmr* Full a Man Out of ft
Rand Pit After Pour Hour*’ Work.
While a gang of men from Sandwich
were at work on Chamberlain A Son's
cranberry bog one of them, .lames Dal
ton. shoveling m a sand pit, was thrown
and buried to t is shoulders by a land
slide on a face of sand some thwfy feet
high. In spite of very exact and em
phatic warnings the man was standing
with his tstek to the bank and his liar-
row between him and the ex it. The fall
i ing sand buried the barrow, and the
I man's right leg was bound fast over the
! loft handle. T ie other Isig hands ran to
< the rosene, bat aside from uncovering
the barrow at d delivering the man's
right leg. conlii not move him an inch,
j The danger was that more sand might
slide and bury ts victim alive, for there
I were already cracks in the sand visible
and one or tv o huge boulders which
might come d >wn any moment. The
boblderg had just been disclosed by the
sand slide.
It was soon api>arent that withont
more and wis t help, the man would
certainly perish by exhaustion or be
smothered. Ti e neighbors were raised.
Among the new comers was Daniel Lee,
of the beach who afterward said he had
once seen a mn i buried in a well and hy
common conse it, as the only man who
dared to have a plan where an error
might cost the rapi>ed man his life and
perhaps the liv.e of others, he was al
lowed to direct First of all he called
for a long pi. nk. One was brought
from the bog. a id carefully placed some
throe or four ft t above the man below,
and between h; n and the sand face, and
across the sand bank.
Then he ordi red planks to be sawed
some five feet long, and these to be
placed upright inside the horizontal
plank and fac ng in and toward the
bank and a m in to hold each plank
steady and to s and to it if another slide
cams. He thei. ordered short oak and
pine limbs to Is, cut and put in the sand
above the upright line of planks, to
catch and stop the sand which momen
tarily was rif ing down. The whole
structure was t.ien braced at each end
by joist and pi; nk, and served as a rude
sort of shield. Then, with the men
holding the pi: nks, the others tried to
dig the man out. His left foot and
lower trunk seemed held as in a vise. A
shovelful of sard taken out seemed in
stantly replace' by the sand sifting down
from the hill. Hands were then used
instead of shovels and some stones un
der him remo ed. But it was slow,
hideous work for the strongest nerved
And now came the crisis.
The rifted earth bank above with the
pine trees on it was moving—was slid
ing down. A shout among the men to
hold fast—a second or two of the terri
ble drift of earrh—a second shout—and
the deadly mass stood still. The plank
barrier so tar had saved. Bnt the man
in peril had now been some four hours
in a situation, the pieril of which he
knew, not expecting, as he afterward
told “the boys,” but that he was to be
carried home ir a box, and though bear
ing np bravelv, was very much ex-
hansted. Ho must bo released speedily
or perish. Of t II trapis, sand under such
conditions is th> most relentless we ever
set eyes npxm. Every attempt of strong
men to pull the man out failed. A new
way was sngge-ited by Mr. David Ellis
A strong ro,>e from one of the bog
screens was brought. A stray woman’s
shawl, left by s >me crantierry picker on
the bog, w;is found and used to ranfUe
the sharpness of the rope against the
man's flesh in hauling, the rope was
fastened tight under his shoulders and
then, as God willed, with strong men
assisting and others holding at the plank
barrier, and tho sand hill settling down
every moment, the man was pulled out
of his sand gn ve—not a bone broken,
not a scratch! The place where the man
lay four honn- in deadly pieril was the
next day found covered with four feet
of sand.—Cape Cod Independent.
"UVING ON AIR.
Th* Remarkable Survival of Three En
tombed Miners in Bohemia.
The teachinr of experience as illus
trated by sever il instances of prolonged
abstinence, tho igh it may afford some
idea of human -ndurance in this partic-
nlar nnder sp cial conditions, has yet
provided no c Ttain criterion of the vi
tal resistance possessed by the average
man when sud lenly deprived of every
form of snstet race. The measure of
this force ma; nevertheless be ganged
with approxin, ite correctness from the
history of reel rrent instances of pro
longed and acc dental privation. As an
example, the f dlowing is remarkable
even in this ca egory:
It is the nar. ative of three Bohemian
miners, who, a. ter being entombed by a
fall of sand in the pnt where they were
working, were finally rescued alive,
though of coarse in an utterly prostrate
condition, sevet teen days later. During
the pieriod of their live burial air was
pumpied down to them by bore holes.
On this they m ,y be said to have lived,
withont food and withont water. The
total want of the latter is what makes
their survival so remarkable. But for
this essential t> e longer fasts of profes
sional fasting men wonld have tieen
quite impossihl >.
We can have no difficnlty in under
standing gener lly why this holds true
if we bear in mind the fact that not
only doee watc r constitute by far the
greater constit lent of every tissue, bnt
that withont i .s dne proportion the cir
culation and nutrition of the blood and
that needful if costly chemical change
upon which all tissue repair depiends
wonld be alike .mpossible.
In endeavorii g to trace the rationale
of a life persist mg, as in the case of the
buried miners, in spite of the absence of
every natm-al c radition, we must notice
one or two significant points. In the
first th» r condition was that of
rest, their fone ional metabolism being
proportiona y lees active, their waste of
tisane diminished and their output of
carbonic acid not so likely to overcharge
the surroundin s atmosphere. Further,
we may take it for granted that a robust
physiqne hail no small share in the con
servation of vit il energy.
Mach depends in snch cases on the
amount o£ nitrogenous matter stored up,
for the most ps -t in the muscular tissue,
and available for destructive changes.
We may safely assume that the amount
of reserve nitn gen in the case of these
men was not meager. Itismainly.no
doubt, to this circumstance that we
must attribute not only the fact of their
existence, but tae still more remarkable
prospect of the’- convalescence and ulti
mate recovery.--London Lancet.

Women’s War on Whiskey.
Tipton, 1ni>., August 28.—
Since the arrest of Mrs. Ben
Vice anti Mrs. Frank Fonch at
Windfall, Friday, for demolish
ing the front or two local sa
loons, another woman has been
added to the list. Saturday
morning Mrs. Richard Huston
was placed under bond for the
same offense. Raids were made
on the saloons by these women,
and each time they left abund
ant evidence of their visit. The
women were armed with axes,
and they attacked the glass
fronts, completely demolishing
the large windows. The bar
tenders were driven from the
places and several kegs of whis
key were spilled about the floor.
In one of the saloons a costly
sideboard was ruined.
The bonds of the women were
placed st $300 in each case, and
they had no trouble in finding
plenty of security. The saloon
men say they intend to fight the
case to the bitter end, but the
friends of the women do not
seem alarmed.
Killed by an Incurve Ball.
Lansford, Pa., August 29.—
On Saturday last Thomas Don
nelly, a member of the Locust-
dale Club, was at the bat and
Gorman was pitching for the
Lansford team. The latter
threw a strong incurve ball,
which Donnelly struck at in
stead of moving out of the way.
The ball hit him in the ear,
knocking him to the ground.
He was hastily carried off the
field and a physician summon
ed, but before the latter arrived
the injured man died.
