Women Pay the Printer.

An experinced editor pays high and
deserved compliment to the fair pat
rons of the press Women, " he says,
are the best subscribers in the world
to newspapers, magazines, etc. We
have been editor for forty years, and
never lost a dollar by female subscri-
bers. They seem to make it 4 point
Of conscientious duty to pay the
preacher and the printer-two classes
of the community that suffer more by
bad pay and no pay at all than all the
rest put together. ~ tfE -.ftf

FRIERSON.
He Turns Up and Tells What He
KnOWs-NeYer Paid Nor Furnished
a Cent.


From the Nashville Banner, sd fnst.l
Mr.. John Frierson is in the city. In
regard to the statement made by
Hobbs that he ( Hobbs) received the
$4,000 FROM VIM. Duncan on check
signed by him, FriersonD Mr.. Frier-
son says that he signed no check, order
or draft, either as an individual or as
President Of the First National Bank
of Columbia. He knew of no one
being connected with the furnishing
of the $4,000 other than Duncan.
Duncan told him that he Duncan had
paid Hobbs $4,000 to resign. Mr..
Frierson had, according to his own
statement, been talked to by Hobbs
about his resigning, and advised such
a step. He says he never made anyap-
plication to Governor Brown for the
appointment either for himself or for
any one else, and had never talked to
Governor Brown about any probable
vacancy in the Office of Comptroller at
any time prior to the resignation Of
Mr.. Friersen explains his absence
by frankly admitting that he was de-
sirous of not appearing before the
House Investigating Committee on
account of condolences that had been
reposed in him. 81
s The animation of Hobbs that he
(Frierson) had drawn the draft on
which the $4,000 was paid, together
with the fact that he had met Colonel
John House in Alabama and freed
himself by telling him that he (Frier-
SOM could not allow his own reputa-
ton to suffer on account of the Hobbs
House transaction-these two consid-
erations caused him to no longer hest
tate, but come forward and tell Just
what he really did know and do in the
matter. .

Dear Sri am a walking adver-

covery, Purgative Pellets and DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy, they having
cured me of Catarrh of nine years
standing, which was so bad that it dis
figured my nose, and, while curing it,
your medicines also cured me of
Asthma in its worst and most aggrava-
ted form. Before using your medi-

hundred and fifteen pounds, and | now
weigh one hundred and sixty-two
pounds, and am in better health than
| have enjoyed for twenty years.

Mississippi Steamboat Racing.

Racing was royal fun. The public
always had an idea that racing was
dangerous; whereas the very opposite
was the case-t that is after the laws
were passed which restricted each
boat to just so many pounds of steam
to the square inch. No engineer was
ever sleepy or careless when his
heart was IN race. He was con-
sten'ly on the alert trying guage-
cocks and watching thibgs. The
dangerous place was on slow, popular
boats, whore the engineers drowsed
around and allowed chips to get into
the doctor" and shut off the water
supply from the boilers.
ln the Flush times" of steam boat
ing race between two VIGOROUSLY
fleet steamers was an event of vast
Importance. TIE date was set for it
several weeks in advance, and from
that time forward the whole Missis-
sippi Valley was in state of con-
summing excitement. Politics and the
weather were dropped, and the peo-
pie talked only of the coming race.
Az the time approached the two
steamers stripped and got ready.
Every incumbrance that added
weight, or exposed resisting surface
to wind or water, was removed if the
boat could possibly do without it.
The "spars," and sometimes even
their supporting derricks, were sent
ashore and no means left TO set the
boat afoat in case she got aground.
When the Eclipse and the A. L. Shot
well ran their great race twenty-two
years ago it was said that pains were
taken to scrape the gliding off the
fanciful device which hung between
the Eollpse's chimneys, and that for
that one trip the Captain left off his
kid gloves end had his head shaved.
But | always doubted these things.
If the boat was known to make
her best speed when drawing FIVE
and half feet forward and five feet
aft, she was carefully loaded to that
exact fgure-she wouldn't enter a
dose OF homeopathic pills on her
manifest after that. Hardly any pas
sengers were taken, because they not
only add weight but they never will
trim boat" They always run to
the side when there is any thing to
see, whereas q conscientious and ex-
perienoed steamboatman would stick
to the center of the boat and part
bis hair in the middle with a spirit
level.-Mark Train, in the August
Atlantic.

TROUBLE. is not at sll impro-
bable that serious difficulties between
the government of the u. s. and the
English authorities may occur. The
steamer Triefant is reported to be
under way to some port in this
country, and it is farther reported
that collectors of customs of all the
sesports have orders from Secretary
Fish to seize the vessel at the first
American port she may enter, and
pay no attention whatever to the
English papers she carries. The
Gilbert c. Triefant is al American
vessel and was seized and libeled by
the English authorities for noncom-
pliance with some minor red tape
structures, against the direct inter
ference of Minister Schenck. The
end is not yet.
