Cotton Mills I'm the south.

The Boston Journal of Commerce says.
at is the custom to speak of the southern
mills as of little account, making an inferior
class of goods, only fit for southern trade,

country are using. The profit of these mills
last year was 20 per cent. on capital of ST.
250 900, or So 70 per spindle. The mills are
lighted with the Brush electric light and
water power is used to run them. 1t cost TO
light the No. 8 mill for six months, including
oarbons and attendance, $40; for the same
time gas would have cost $4,000.

Secretary Windom Serenaded.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-Secretary Window
was serenaded at his residence tonight by the
Minnesota State Republicans association.
Senator Mcmillan, ex-senator Ramsey, Repre-
sentative Dunnell and Col. Thomas Fitch made
brief speeches. Secretary Window, when
called out, expressed himself profoundly
grateful and assuring the members of the as
sociation he appreciated fully the compli-
ments paid him, said: While he appreciated
the position of secretary of the treasury, still
he appreciated more highly the position of
senator from Minnesota. For twenty-five
years the people of that State had kept him in
that honorable position, and in many
instances he had rendered out a poor return
for that friendship. He assured them that
the position of secretary of the treasury had
come to him unsought for, and the greatest
struggle in his life had been inEKde
termining whether he should accept it
or not. The secretary concluded by saying his
heart was big enough to take in the people of
the whole nation, and he only regretted his
house was not large enough to take in all OF
those who had called upon him, but those
who could do SO, he would be glad to meet.

THE ISLAND OF IsCHIA EAR

THE ISLAND OF IsCHIA EARTHQUAKE.
LONDON, March THE following are adj
ditional details of the earthquake. At Casca-
macciola on the island of Ischia, the first
shock occurred at 1:30 Friday afternoon,
and the second about an hour later. The
whole of the upper part of the town was de
stroyed. The details confirm the damage. to
property, loss of life and injury to the people
previously mentioned. The royal steamers,
Nagauga, Pagona and Esploratore, have ar
rived from Naples with soldiers and physi-
clans. The soldiers rescued many from the
ruins. The population fled to the surround
ing country and along the sea coast. The gov
ernment is sending food from Naples. The
king and minister of the interior sent contri-
buttons for the relief of the sufferers. The
second and fatal shock lasted seven seconds,
accompanied by "a noise like subterranean thun-
der Then came the crash of falling houses, ,ac-
companied by the shrieks of the victims. The
probable loss of life will reach two hundred,
and the damage to property 100000 francs.

SLANDERING LEDUC.

His Administration of His Office Pro-
nounced Aimless and Worthless.
CHICAGO, March THE State board of ag-
riculture of Illinois having recently strongly
recommended Hon. Emory Cobb of this State
for commissioner of agriculture, that action
was speedily followed by nearly every other
board in the Northwestern States, and by prom
inent newspapers, including the Chicago Tri-
bune, Evenimg Journal, Prairie Farmer, and
National Liuc Stock Journal. The latter
paper says the Office of commissioner has
since its creation been a sort of harbor of
refuge for seedy politicians and still remains a
catholic, unorganized, and worthless affair,
and so it will remain till by stroke of good
fortune a strong man with frst-class execu-
tive ability, thorough business training and an
intimate practical acquaintance with the agri-
cultural interests of our country, shall be
placed at it's head. With such man it might
be made power in the councils of the nation.
Without dlsparaging the abilities of others
who are named for the position, the Journal
has no hesitation in affirming its conviction
that Mr.. Cobb is above all that have been sug-
gested as the man for the place, and this cOnvic-
ton is strongly held by all who know him.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-At 3 P. NJ
Blaine formally assumed the duties of secre-
tary of state, and received the several heads of
bureaus.
Judge Hunt entered upon his duties as sec
retary of the navy this afternoon, dispensing
with all formality, not even making his pres
ence in the department known until the chief

sitting at his desk. Afterwards he received
ex-Secretary Thompson and Goff who re-
mained in consultation with him half an hour
on more.

panied by the newly-appointed postmaster

short time after the cabinet officers of the pre-
vious administration had retired. Before the

about half an hour was spent in social inter-
course, during which President Garfield re-
quested the old members to give the newly
appointed ministers all information pertaining
to their respective departments, and the new
cabinet was formally organized with the ex-
ception of Postmaster General James. The
new members qualified before Chief Justice

cabinet officers were qualified this morning at
the executive mansion before Judge Carter.
They will take charge of their respective de-
partments this afternoon.

ENGLISH GRAIN MARKETS.
Trade Limited With a Firm Tone at Ad
vancing Figures.

LONDON, March 7.-The Mark Lane Er-
p:ess in review of the English grain trade the
past week says: In consequence of changeable
damp weather. agricultural prospects at the
beginning of March were serious. Little pro-
gress in sowing has been made since Christ
mas. The young wheat crop is in favorable
condition. Good home grown samples from

was solely due to the scarcity of supplies, and

The case of the State against Ella French,
charged with the larceny of watch from an
other female named Jennie Rich, was called
for hearing in the police court yesterday fore.
noon. The defendant and one George Wilson
were before the court last week. Wilson con-
fessed to taking the watch in '.joke" and to
handing it over to Mrs. French. He was held
to the grand jury and as to her the hearing
was continued until yesterday. A number Of
witnesses were sworn and the evidence was
pretty badly mixed. Defendant denied having
received the watch and as there was consider
able doubt about the matter she was held to
the grand jury and committed in default OF
$3.50 bail.
Among the visitors to the capitol ruins last
Sunday was high-toned swell whose spirit
for investigation almost got him into serious
trouble. While making tour of inspection
he ran across the artillery ordnance stationed
on the grounds east of the ruins. This was
his meat. His ardor for the military rose to
a patriotic pitch and, putting cigar, he pried
open the ammunition box, at the bottom Of
which were scattered few grains of powder.
unthinkingly, he brushed the hot ashes from
his torch and, falling into the powder box,
there was a Fourth Of July explosion. Luckily
for him, the box was about empty. As it was
the box, was torn to shreds. It was amusing
to see that swell pick himself up and crawl off.
The old police court is no more; good-by, o
venerable shade of iniquity; and thou, mephitic
and sweet.scented bull pen, long, long
farewell. Thy usefulness is among the things
that have departed; thou hast supped full fat
on human misery; the dizzy 1lrunks who were
wont to seek thy penltential footstool shall

same, they will know thy more pretentious
