The Industrial Home for Boys and Girls. The Trustees Elected at a Meede? Held Friday. The organization of the Rev. Rich ard Carroll's Home for Boys and Girls, to be located in the suburbs of Columbia for the education of colored children, was completed at the meeting cf the local corporators held at the Central National bank yesterday. Those present were W. >r H. Lyles, Julions H Walker, ff. T. Martin, W.H. Timmerman and Rev. Richard Carroll. The following members of the board of trust?es were elected : B F. Dennison, cashier of the Market Street National bauk of Philadelphia; Mrs Mary Crozier of Upland, Pa ; Mrs 3 M McMaste;: of Newport, R L; W S Pope of Columbia, R J Pal: mer of Columbia, Richard Carroll of Columbia, the founder of the Home, and James Parker, a colored farmer of Denmark, SC. The principal donation to the in? stitution-$10,000-was made by Mrs Crozier of Pennsylvania, v ho was elected or e of the trustees The Home bas bought ind paid for 316J acres of laud jost east of the city, the price being $9,700; besides, quite a neat s im is now io the bank to the credit of the Home, and on the place are nevera! buildings, three horses and some other stock. The board baa fixed next Thanks? giving Day-November 30-as the day for the formal opening of the in? stitution from which sc much is ex? pected This is a happy selection. The Rev. Richard Carroll expects to go north again very shortly to raise the remainder of the $25,000 which he wishes to get for the erec? tion of the buildings. Next Wednes day evening at 8 o'clock he will de? liver an address in the interests of the Home at the Cavalry Baptist church. Some Columbians have subscribed liberally to the institution, but it is ? boped that others will send contri? butions to Mr Julius H. Walker at the Central bank. Carroll thinks Columbia shoal i at least give $2.000 toward the Home. The largest local donations are as follows : W A Clark. $40 ; L D Childs, $25W T ^Martin, $25 ; L?rick & Lowrance, $25 : J L Mimnaugh, $25 ; F H Weston, $10 ; Mrs E M Brayton, $10 ; David Childs, $10 ; Wilie Jones, $5 ; Merry Drug Co, $5 - The State, Sept. 16. Bather a Good Rake-oiF. Mr. P. J. Morgan, ia an article in the Atlanta Constitution, says : "As au illustration of the manner in which the farmers of the country have lost heretofore, it is only necessary to repeat a statement recently made by Mr Hester, of New Orleans, that out of an annual cotton receipt of one million three hundred thousand bales in that city over thirty seven thousand bales were made up out of samples which had been ruthlessly plucked from the bales by the men who handled them, which should have gone into the parishes of Louis ia&" Another Infected Point. Jackson, Miss, Sept. 14.- Dr |J. J. Harry, State health officer in charge at Mississippi City, reports tonight that one case of yellow fever has developed at that place since last night. The ease is of a mild variety and the patient is located in one of the formeily infected houses A newly infected point is announc? ed. Pass Christain, on the Gnlf coast, reporting one mild case. The pre mises are closely guarded with the local health officer in charge. The situation in Jackson shows no change tonight and no new cases are reported. Maj. Porter, the only patient, is clinging tenaciously to life, but the attending physicians 9ay be has scarcely one chance in fifty to recover. Program advertising will never pay as well as newspaper advertising. Some of my clients have spent hun dreds of dollars a year in it, and without exception they failed to get even half way returns on their money, ? Program advertising never paid any? one I ever knew ; and I don't believe it can be made to pay. It "isnt't in the wood," so keep your program ad? vertising down to as little as you can, and charge the amoont it costs you to the charity fund. -The Book Keep? er. Bobbed the Grave. A startling incident of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was th6 subject, is nar? rated by him as follows : "I was in a most dreadful condition My 3kin was almost yel? low, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continu ally in back and sides, no appetite-gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physi? cians bad given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying 'Electric Bitters.' and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a Med improvement. I continued their use three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try thanu Only 50 cents per bottle at J. F W. r>eLorme'8 Drug Store. 5 Profit in Goat Raising. ?D the vear book of tbe Uoited States departmtnt of agriculture, Mr Almoot Barnes, of the divisi?n of statistics, "On Keeping Goa's for Profit," sug? gests that raising common goats may te made a paying business in some portions of the Uoited States. The demand for dry skins in this country now requires the annual slaughter of over 16,000,000 goats, while io the United States only aboat 500,000 goats are raised The imports of skins for the year ending Jone 30, 1898, were valued ac $15, 776,901. Mr. Barnes thinks a large portion of unimproved land in the south Atlantio, central and western divisions might be profitably devoted to goat raising, though cheap labor would be required. This can be had wherever there is a large negro or Mexican population Mr Barnes reaches the conclusions : 1. That the Uoited States imports a large and steadily increasing amount of goat skins for necessary use in home manufactures. 2 That there is an aggregate area of 265,000,000 acres of unimproved farm land in the United States, a large part of which is adapted to goats. 3. Over 61 per oent. of this unim? proved land is contained io the sooth Atlantio, south central] and a part of tbs western states, where the conditions are moje favorable than the average as to labor aod climate. 4. These favorable conditiens are emphasised in much of the district by reason of the abundance of cheap labor doe to a dense negro population. 5 The testimony of all goat raisers confirms thc special and favorable con? ditions, as relates to Angoras and to goats for milk. Altogether, it is concluded that it would be easy and relatively inexpen? sive to furnish the home market with the goat skins now imported xo the value of $25,000,000 per year. A Thousand Tongu?s Could not express the rapture of Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard St., Philadelphia, Pa., when she found that Dr. KiDg's New Dis? covery for Consumption had completely cored her of a hacking cough that for many years had mads life a burden. All other remedies and doctors could give her no help, but she says of this Royal Cure-'"it soon removed the pain in my chest and I can now sleep soundly, something I can scarcely remember doing before. I feel like sounding its praises throughout the Universe." So will every one who tries Dr. King's New Discovery for any trouble of ths Throat, Chest or lungs. Price 50c and SI.

PECAN THEES. We haven't said anything for some time on pecan culture, but we are not forgetting the pecan all the same. The following we clip from an ex? change : "Mr W. A Clifton, S. ? L. agent at Rich Square, has some of the finest young pecan trees growing on the railroad land we have ever seen A year ago the Seaboard man? agers sent each station agent a lot of pecans with instructions to pknt them on railroad iand at the stations. Mr. Clifton prepared the ground well for his tree6, and now, one year later, he has trees four and and a half feet high. He has one row of 12 trees planted 50 feet apart, that are grow? ing nicely. He has given them good attention." The SAL management is show? ing good judgment in thus putting to practical use some cf its land and is at the same time giving a practical object lesson to the people along its iines, and others who may happen that way. The trees here spoken of are grown from the seed, and are not the planting from nurseries, and con 8equently the cost is somewhat less, in addition to which the planters have a pretty correct idea of the kind of tree they will have without taking the nurseryman's word for it. lt will thu3 take a little longer to have bearing trees, but in the end it may be better as it is also cheaper Other railways in the State should follow the example of the SA L in this respect, and encourage the I planting of pecan, walnut and other j valuable trees, which in the future j will be a source of revenue to the people and to them There is not the slightest danger of overdoing this business no matter how many trees may be planted.-Wilmington Star Coast Line's New Extension. Th^ rails have been laid on the At? lant)^ 'oast Line's new extension from Denmark, S C., on the South Carolina and Georgia railroad, to Rob bins Today train service will be put on between Denmark and Barn? well and when the balance of the road is surfaced, which will be about the 1st of October., a regular schedule will be run over the entire road - j Wilmington Messenger. Sept 12 CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought j Bears the Signature of Cabinet Agrees to Pardon. Paris, Sept IS-The Matin this j morning asserts that the cabinet has agreed to psrdon Dreyfus and that the decree will be signed Sept. 19. Many of the provincial papers publish articles insisting on the granting of a pardon The Figaro ssys that many officers of the army are asking that Dreyfus be pardoned The removal of Mr L 1. Parrott, stenographer of the third circuit by Judge Buchanan-and to make room for his brother-in law, George D. Till? man Jr , will hardly be approved of by the people of the state. If Mr. Parrolt was doing his duty as stenog rapher and made a capable officer, he should have been allowed to re tain his place-but if otherwise it would have been in better taste |on Judge Buchanan's part to have give the position to some one not connected with him by blood or marriage The News has never heard any complaint against Mr Parrott, but his removal by the judge and the appointment of his brother in law, young Tillman, goes to show that those who talked loudly against rings and a few fami? lies getting all the offices, are not practicing what they preached. Al? ways beware of those who call them selves reformers -Darlington News. Judge Buchauan is receiving some very blunt criticisms from newspa? pers of the Third circuit for his ac? tion in removing Mr L I. Parrott, the official stenographer of that cir cuit, in order to make a place for his brother in law, Mr G. D Tillman, Jr. So far no explanation or defense has been made. But, after all, is the judge out of fashion in thu3 provid? ing for bis own ? Our impression is that nepotism bas been very freely practiced by leading "Reformers" since their accession to office and power, Senator Tillman setting the example of "placing" his relatives ; yet there has been no rebuke that we have observed If nepotism is permissible in Tillman, why not in Buchanan ?-The State Water-Proof Coat.

London, Sept 13.-The Paris cor? respondent of the Daily Chronicle claims to have good authority for the statement that Dreyfus will be pardon? ed although President Loubet will not exercise his prerogative until after the meeting of the council of revis? ion. He adds that Capt Beauvais and Maj Breon were the only two members of the courtmartial who voted for acquittal and it was Capt. Parfail who insisted upon the proviso regarding extenuating circumstances. To mn a woman crazy, let ber mensura? tions be either too frequent or too much at one lime.
