A NEW INDUSTRY.

Why not in Geoegiaf 1t has
paid and is paying elsewhere
1t has only been a year or two since
pine straw first became an article of
export in the Wilmington market,
and now, we learn it is impossible to
supply the demand for it. It is
shipped North, where it undegroes
certain preparations, and is then
used for stutiiing mattresses, in the
place of oakum, aud for other pur>
poses, besides yielding kind of oil
in the first process to which 1T is
subjected, There is depot for it
near the foot af Orange street in
that city, where it is baled for ship
meut.
This new industry can be most
proftably developed in Georgia for
if there ever was surplus of any
one article, anywhere, which seem
ed to be vaueless, it is pine straw 10

IMPROVED STOCK.

In Mr., Bonner's barn we noticed
a good Shorthorn bull, two years old
last spring, thoroughbred, registered
that cost $3.50 we believe. He was
kept for the double purpose of i'm
proving the stock of the farm and of
the neighborhod as we'll. His pro.
geny for the present year will NUNS
Der at least 90, yielding say 1920,
though a considerable number of
these will be in the home bred, A
little figuring will show the value
of a single such animal The calves
will be worth IS to $40 each at one
day old, while the ordinary natives
sell for only 81 each when dropped
AN increase of 81 to 50 each
Call the increased value only 50
each, a very low estimate, and the
Increased value of the 60 calves will
be $500, or twice the cost of the
bull. But look ahead a little: The
expense of raising 60 animals tC
three years will be about the same
for natives of good grades, but al
that age the improved animals will
sell for at least $50 more per head
equivalent for the 90 animals Of
this years get, to at least 81 800
Let it be kept 10 mind that this re-
suit will surely come from keeping
this one $3.50 animal single season,
while his value year hence will be
quite as large as now. And this
may be depended upon annually for
half dozen years. There is no
doubt that the above figures will be
fully realized. Query Why are
not more such breeding animals in
troduced into every neighborhood
where farm stock is keptY Similar
figures apply to horses, swine, sheep,
etc. A multitude-indeed the great
nass-of farmers do not hesitate to
graft their native apple trees with
improved scions, yet they are salts
fed to keep on raising, caring tor,
and using scrub animals, when
every dollar expended on improved
blood is speedily returned many
fold.

LEFT WITH TIE BAG TO HOLD -
The Columbus Enquirer says: 1t is
an old time custom of playing pranks
on green horns by taking them snipe
ing and giving them the bag to hold.
A short time since crowd of the
boys decided to lay joke on a new
conner, and one they took for a
"greeny" by taking him down into
the swamp, snipe hunting. For this
purpose they secured a new bag
and started out. They put the
young man with the bag to hold and
went around pretendingly to drive in
the snipe. They beat their way
back to town and decided to go into
a bar room and take a drink, while
the young man remained there hold>

prise, when on entering the bar
room they found the "greeDy" quiet
ly slipping a milk punch which be

DR.. Nathan Alien, who writes in the
June North American Review, is greatly
troubled over the increase of business in
the divorce department of New England,
In the IS years between 1860 and 1878,
inclusive. Z ,233 divorces were obtained IN
Massachusetts, 2,775 in Vermont, 7.7S1 in
Connecticut, and during the last 20 years,
,966 in Rhode Island. The proportion
Of divorces to the whole number of mar
riages has steadily increased in all these
States. The average Of divorces in Yer
mont to the whole number of marriages
during the five years between 1860 and
1865 was one to %: between 1873 and
1873 it was one to ID; in Connecticut dur
ing the first five years it was one to IL !;
during the last five years it was one to
10; in Massachusetts during the first five
years it was one to 50; during the last
five it was one to 49, The increase in the
two former has been nearly one-third.
while in Massachusetts it has nearly
doubled.

SATURDAY NIGHT SPEECHES.

CHICAGO, June 6. The speeches Of last
night, in which claims Of the different candi-
dates for nomination were presented to the
convention and to the galleries, have been
prominent topic Of conversation to-day. The
best speech was undoubtedly that Of MI.
FRYE from Maine, whose fierce, dramatic fer
vor came in famously after the tame manner
in which Mr.. JOY had nominated MIR. Blame,
and reused the admirers of the "Plumed
Knight into a state of frenzied excitement.
GARFIELD's POPULARITY.
Gen. Garfield received an ovation scarcely
exceeded BY that given to Conkling. and
while he eloquently pleaded for John Sher-
mans claims for a nomination he was really
pleading his own, and winning golden opln-
ions on every hand.
COxkLISG's ORAToRICAL DISPLAY
was a masterpiece of popular, top-lofty decla-
nation and his argument in favor Of Gen. Grant
bristling with points calculated to tell on
thoughtful men. while his aggressive attacks
on other candidates. provoked howls OF Indlg-
nation, which he treated with lordly scorn.
Judae BrandaEee
Of Connecticut had the last word and he plan-
aged to present Gen. Hawley for Vice Pres
;dent, while he seconded the nomination OF
Washburne as a son of Maine and citizen OF
Illinois, who can carry doubtful States anu
secure the victory of the Republican ticket

Death Of a Venerable Lady.
from the Salem Mass Register, May 81

From the salem MASS heslsteT, May oi' J
Miss Mary Clarke Anderson, lady who
had nearly reached the venerable age OF ~
wears. died at her residence on Essex street.
ON Saturday evening She was descended
from one of the most ancient and respectable
families of Salem. and tradition says that she
traced her ancestry back to the great Protec-
tor. Oliver Cromwell. some of whose family
came to this old town, and are buried in the
Charter Street Cemetery. She was great
granddaughter of Francis Clarke, Esq.
whose daughter, Deborah, married Cox Will
liam Fairfax, grandson of Thomas. the
fourth Lord Fairfax. who was the Collec-
tor of Customs in Salem from 1924 to 1882,
and the. intimate friend of George Washing
ton, who passed four years in the Fairfax
family, and who is believed to have visited
the Clarkes, in Salem, when on mission to
Gov. Shirley in 1856. Miss Anderson lived
on the Clarke estate, corner of Essex and
North streets, the homestead, which is well
remembered by many, having been removed
some years ago to give place to the Shepard
Block. About 1913, when that block was
commenced. attempts were made to buy ner
estate, but she refused to sell, and finally a
life lease was offered her of the tenement in
the new block. This was accepted. As she
was then Sc years of age, it was not thought
Is be a bad bargain for either. but her life was
a long one, and she has retained possession
of the estate for over SO years. She owned a
fine portrait of Deborah Clarke Fairfax.
which will probably be added to the treasures
of the Essex Institute. She was a worthy
descendant OF a distinguished race, and was
widely known and highly esteemed.

BallOting Begun.

Late Saturday night the great conven-
ton at Chicago found itself fully organ
lied and ready for the business for which
it had assembled. so that when Monday
came the duty Of balloting was in order.
At the afternoon session eighteen ballots
were cast, and when the last was recorded
it was nearly similar to the first, and
the intermediate scores showed hardly a
wavcring to the right or to the left. Not
break occurred, not an indication of
what the final action of the convention will
he was given.
From an examination of the first bal
lot it appears that the vote received
by Blaine was equal. il not larger.
than that generally conceded him
before the convention, while that
of Grant was below. 1t was felt sew
eral days ago that Grants nomination was
impossible, but the ballots had show that
his chances are poor indeed. tor his iull
strength has been thrown and there has
been no hint of a combination which could
give him the nomination, or source from
which votes enough could be obtained to
bring about such result. As for Senator
Blaine his friends have felt that if divi-
sion should take place in the Grant ranks
he would be the next choice of many Of
them, especially from Pennsylvania. New
York and the South.
The balloting last night was Of a
piece of that during the day,
showing no material change. This
morning the convention will at its
work again. and we trust before the day
il ended the nation may thrill with the
glad tidings that James G. Blaine is the
republican candidate for president. His
friends are hopeful, and will stand by him

Der could be chosen as the great nations
