man referred to in this city;
'Mr, c. Menelas is making compleete
preparations to test two or three jute ma
chimes this season at his plantation near
BrOOkhaven. His jute- crop has suffered
from excessive rains in June, and from
dry weather late in July and i'm August,
but he will be prepared TO test the ma
chimes with the amount of jute which he
will have ready for the mill as well as he
would from 100 acres Of this crop.
MIR. Menelas has taken hold of the jute
interests, including both the culture Of
the plant and its preparation for market,
with an enterprise and unWaVering reSO-
luton which has secured the highest
oncOmiums from his many friends, and he
is entitled 10 the thanks of the Southern
people for his public spirit in
developing this important industry
He has spent money freely, and much
hard mental and physical labor, for
the good Of Southern agriculture Of the
southern people, May his success be
commensurate with his merits. The
press should everywhere in the South give
him its cordial support in his noble efforts
in behalf of Southern agriculture. He is
a gentleman of culture and of the most

lic-spirited citizen and philanthrOpist;
and nothing would please him better than
to be able to do good work for his adopt

A Fresh Young Lawyer Thrashed by a
Preachcr-Heavy Cotton shipment.
Special to the Appeal
HELENA, November 13.-Mr. Thomson,
OF Marianna, young attorney priding
himself upon weighing 220 pounds, with
nerve to back it, came to this city yester-
day, and either through force OF habit or
by accident, became inflated with red
liquor. When the shadows of evening
had fully compassed the city about, Mr..
Thomson besought the hospitality OF the
roof of the Pacific Hotel, and seated him
self near the stove in the Office, where
several gentlemen were congregated,
among whom was the Rev. J. G..
Brown, the eloquent young pastor Of
the Methodist church here. Without
amy provocation whatever Mr.. Thomson
endeavored to be witty at the expense of
Mr.. Brown, who, noticing the condition
Of Thomson, paid no attention to him.
Thomson, however, continued to twit
Mr.. Brown, and finally insisted upon argu-
ing Scripture with him. Mr.. Brown ex-
planned that he would prefer having no
conversation with him (Thomason), as he
was drinking. To this Thomson gave the
lie direct, and received a seven-pound
cuspidor directed at his head for his pains.
A chair was then quickly raised by Mr..
Brown at sufficient altitude to fall heavy
as the closing argument. AT this Thomson
wilted, and was conducted to the door,
from whence he insisted upon returning
and apologizing, which he did.

biographical sketch.

DIR. James Marion Sims was born in
Lancaster district, S. c., January %,
1913. He graduated at the South Caro-
lima College in 1882, and studied med
icine in Charleston and at the jefferson
Medical College, Philadelphia. In 1886
he settled at Montgomery, Ala, and soon
became widely known as a skillful opera
tor in surgery. About 1S43 his attention
was directed to the treatment OF vesico-
vaginal fistula, hitherto deemed incurable,
and he established for the diseases pecu-
liar to women a private hospital, which
he supported for four years at his own eX-
pense. A protracted series OF experiments
were crowned with success by the substi-
tuition of sutures of silver wire for silken
and other sutures, and he afterward ex
tended the use of metallic sutures into
every department of general surgery. In
1858 he removed to New York,
where through his efforts a tempo
rary and afterward permanent woman's S
hospital was established under his charge.
In 1861 and 1864 DIR. Sims visited
Europe, and in 1870 he organized in
Paris the Anglo-American ambulance
corps, which operated under the banner
of the Red Cross of Geneva during the
Franco-Prussian war. He practiced in
Paris, London and Brussels, where one of
his daughters, the wife OF high court
dignitary, resides. In Europe he ranked
among the greatest surgeons OF any
time, and was held in esteem as a phil
anthropist and benefactor OF his age

gerry. Both works have been translated
into French, German and Italian, and
have had extensive circulation in this
country and in Europe. Some time age
he began to prepare his memoirs for pub
lication. and there is reason to believe he
had finished them before the final sum
mons came. rhsv will be eagerly read by
people generally, for it is fair TO presume
that they are rich, not only in his expert
enees as surgeon, philanthropist and in.

Coz. "A. S. CoLYAR, Of the Nashville
american, recently made a speech at the
opening of the Nashville and Florence
railroad-part of which we reproduce in
the Railroad Department of the APPEAL OF
to-day--at the conclusion Of which he
gave these significant sentences: "Tennes-
scans have great reputation for activity
in politics We are a great people when
election year comes around. Indeed, Ten
nessee has developed good many great
men; but what we need now more than
politicians is good farmers, great manu-
lacturers, fine mechanics, an Industrious,
live, moving people" Col. Colyar is right
One OF the great curses of the State has
hitherto been too many great men. lin
their own estimation), and altogether too
much politics and too many politicians.
Men nees-to-4oarn above all things that
there is no life so slavish or so abject as
that OF the place-hunter, and that while
they should do their duty at elections,
they should sec to it that politics is an in
cident and not the be all and end all of
their lives. The best man is an industri-
Gus, honest man, aud among the worst is
the idle, lazy, thriitless beings, who are
always looking for Office and always as
serting claims.

IF John Kelly, as is rumored, resigns
from the "boss" business and turns Tam
many over to that other Indian, Kearney,
the political map OF New York may have
TO be re-engraved. The sachcms may be
able to keep the braves together under
kearney, but on reference to the history
of Ireland we find that will be a rather
difficult thing TO do. Sachem Kearney
may be a high mucky-muck in the narrow
domain to which he has hitherto been
circumscribed, and may not be equal
10 the task of conquering on a wider war
path. The recent defeat, too, has dis
heartcned his fellow Indians from Ireland,
and the retiracy of Kelly is a great, a
keen grief, and is likely TO be an ever
present sorrow. Besides, it is generally a
bad business To change commanders in
the face Of an enemy and pending gem
cral engagement. But the spoils are a
great incentive, and the old City Hall of
New York still stands as a rallying point.
When mourning for the great Indian,
Kelly, has died away from the lodges,
there will no doubt be a renewal of paint
and fxins, and the war cry of Tammany
will he heard again on the side where
hopes are strongest and an incorruptible
patriotism centers.

MAILS DELAYED.
Curious State of Affairs the Northern
Pacific Road.

WAsuINGToN, November ia COM
plant has reached the Postofice Depart
ment that mails on the Northern Pacific
road are not properly worked by the
postal clerks, and instead OF being dis
tributed to the points along the route, are
carried through to Portland and stacked
up there. Superintendent Thompson says
this state Of affairs has been brought about
by combination of postal clerks, who
purposely neglect the work, in order to
compel him to double the force which he
maintains is sufficient to distribute the
mails properly. However this may be,
Postmaster-General Gresham has taken
the matter in hand, and tonight assigned
Assistant Superintendent Janison to the
duty of going over the whole line of road
from st. Paul to Portland and making a
thorough examination of the postal SER
vice. If he finds the force insufficient to
properly work the mails, it will be in
creased; if the present employees are inef-
ficient, they will be replaced by better
men. In short, whatever is needed to
make the service prompt and efficient
along the line will be supplied at once
and all cause for complaint removed.

VIZ publish on the second page of this
issue Of the APPEAL great deal of very
interesting matter in relation to the re-
suits of the recent election, from which it
will be seen that the loss of New York
State is attributed by each of the Demo-
cratic factions in the city of that name to
the others, and that as n result OF 1t Sem
ator Colquitt declares that Mr.. Tilden
must be put forward next year as the
Democratic candidate for the Presidency.
New York, he asserts, is to be the battle
ground, and Tilden, he declares 10 be the
only man who can unite the factions and
carry the State. He does not say, how
ever, that IYlden would undertake 20
carry the State for any other nominee.
This is a significant omission, and gives
some color 10 the statements made that
Tilden allowed the factions to have full
b sway on the 9th, in order 10 induce the
belief in his supremacy, which Colquitt
proclaims. Arthur agrees with the Geor-
gia Senator that New York is 10 be the
battle-ground, and as heis the Republican
''boss" of that State by virtue o. his Office
and assumes that the triumph Of
the 9th was due to him, he wants
10 be the candidate against Tilden
This accomplished, the question would be
narrowed down 10 one of soap" But
let us hope that both Tilden and ArtLrr
will be disappointed. Let us hope that n
cleaner battlefield than New York will he
selected for the contest of 1854; that the
brutal bullies, roughs and blackguards
the corruptionists and the bosses of The
great metropolis, will be closely confined
20 the work of their own slums, and that
the unpurchasable and decent Demoerac,
OF the nation, contending on fair plat
form Of principles, will be able TO elect .
ticket Of unblemished repute.

MAcREADY made his debut as Romeo
in Birmingham in 1910, being then in his
seventeenth year, and retired in his fifty
eighth, having always held the position OF
star. He was the first to play "Virginius'
lin Sheridan Knowles's admirable TRACE
dy), and this became one of the best rolls.
Macready was free from the dissipated
habits whick marked Cooke and Kean,
but he was irascible and tyrannical to a
degree of which he felt ashamed in his
better moments This infirmity made him
the terror of all subordinates. He was
highly successful as a Shakespearean inn
personator, and drew full houses at the
Park Theater, New York, thus awakening
the jealousy of Forrest. This eventually
led to the Astor place riot. On this occa-
sion Forests crowd OF Bowery roughs
were determined to drive Macready from
the stage, and twenty lives were sacrificed

cready's theatrical reign extended forty
