AN UNUSUAL EXPERIENCE.
Mr. Herman Ackelow's Five Years Sojourn
in the Interior of China

Herman Ackelow, who entered into contract
with the Chinese government fine years ago TO
superintend the management OF woollen mill
in that country, has returned to America, and
arrived in this city last Wednesday, mis- con-
TRACT having sxnirad- 10 now stopping with
his son at at No. 1873 Massachusetts avenue,
and will probably remain here permanently.
In narrative to a Journal reporter Of his obser-
vations and experience during his
five years residence in that coun-
try, he told many things of interest.
The government mill, which Mr.. Ackelow opera
ted, was established at Lanchau in the province
Of Kansuh, in the interior. 1t is the first and
only woollen factory in the country. The ma
chinery purchased in Europe, and cost the
Chinese government 100000 to get the mill
In running order. In the transportation each
piece OF machinery had to be unriveted and
taken apart upon reaching the Using
ling mountains in Shesin, and from
there was carried by hand to the city of
Lanchau, 5000 Mongolians being required
TO do the work, and it took seven davs to make
the tug. The mountainous character of the
country makes travel impossible, except by foot.
"The people of the interior" Mr.. AcRelow says,
ARE not as industrious as those along the coast
They have greater natural resources, and they
live much easier. In the region of Kansuh two
crops are harvested annually, while in the pro-
vinces along the coast the soil requires careful
attention to make it yield the one crop. In Kan
and commerce. is conducted almost
by '0 of coton rS@ goods
brought into the country by merchants and
traded to the Mongolians and to the Burmese for
furs. 1t is IA staple article OF commerce at all
times. The wool used in the manufacture of
goods was obtained mostly from sheep raised in
Koko Noe. 1t is very unclean, and troublesome
to handle. forty men being required to prepare
1t for use in the mills"
The workmen and machlnists employed in the
government wooden mills, established under the
direction of Mr. AokelOw. are all MOngOlians,
and, with the five years experience obtained un-
der his management, they are now able to op-
crate the factory themselves.

-Caspar Williams has returned from
Louisville where has been attending law
school The past winter. Mrs. Whitehead,
mother of. 4. Whitehead, has been very
sick for the past few days. She is some
better to-day. Miss Sallie Whitehead is
here from Lexington. W. q. Bradley, Of
Lancaster, and Capt. l.. A. Byron, Of Man
chester, were. attending court here last
week.
The sheriff Of this county received a
telegram from london to arrest James
Broughton, 8. +. Broughton and two other
parties, charged with murder in that coun-
". The two named we're arrested Friday
night and taken 10 London last Saturday.
They were indicted at the present term Of
the Laurel Circuit Court for the murder Of
an old man named wardroop, who was
killed last October in a deep hollow in Lau-
rel county, near where the Broughtons
live. The proof seems TO be positive against
them, but they protest their innocence
strenuously.
Jas. Bishop got OF with hung jury at
London. This was surprise TO great
many persons who thought the proof was
10 positive against him that no jury could
fail 10 bring in verdict Of guilty. Hard
swearing by his witnesses, some Of whom
we're his attorneys, succeeded in raising the
reasonable doubt" in the minds Of the iu-
ry, hence their failure to agree. The jury
stood for acquitttl for conviction. The
court fixed Bishops bail at $1,000, which
he has no, yet given. The case against
Henderson was continued until the next
term.
The Hamburger case was called this
morning and continued until next Wednss-
day. The regular judge has been sworn of
the bench in this case and Squire A. J.
Pike and Marshall Mullins have been
agreed upon to try the same. Il seems
that some Of Hardbsrger's friends have
been quite active in having some OF the
Commonwealth witnesses to absent them
selves from this examination. Two OF
these witnesses are to receive, il il under
stood, 81 per day to remain away until after
the examination. ItIs not known where
these persons are, but il is evident the case
viii be continued until they are gotten
here. IT is thought that the negro convict
shot by Hamburger will get we'll. He has
been improving some lately, but is still
very low.

Among other things he has not farmed
