A Free Pun for Mary.

There is no doubling the fact that Miss
Mary Anderson is a very nice girl, or
young lady, as the case may be, for it is
certain that she has not lived long enough
10 reach the uncertain age of the typical
actress. She has youth, beauty, spirit,
talent. She has in very few years risen
TO the front rank in her chosen profession,
and 1t is believed that she has acquired
comfortable bank account. and that she
has a very bright future.
Wien Miss Anderson first went TO Lon
don she at once captivated nearly all the
widowers and bachelor nOblemen Of Eng
land and the Continent, as well as many
benedicts. She was annoyed with their
attentions, and it was given out by her ad-
vertising agent that she received bushels
ofpropOsals OF marriage every day. But
like the true American girl that she is,
she had it advertised that she was we'd
ded to her art, and that she had no idea
OF applying for divorce in the then near
future.
Now another rumOr is waited over the
water about our Mary. 1t is hinted that
while she has been one OF the most con-
spicuOus twinklers in the ornament of
her art, she has all along been the bright
particular star of a certain young Ken
tuckian, not a typical hOrse-talking man,
but "a very" nice, modest aud unassum-
ing gentleman of wealth aud position. the
son of a prominent manufacturer of steam
engines and agricultural implements, OF
Louisville. 1t is said that he was her
friend and admirer in her early
glrlhood, that he won her young heart
and that they have remained true 10 each
other ever since. She has not been made
giddy and ambitious by the attentions she
has received from the noblest personages
OF the old world, but, IL is said, intends
before very long, possibly within the next
two years, 10 CLOSE her career on the
mimic stage, return to America and be-
gin to act her part in the real drama of
life under the happiest OF auspices.
This story is decidedly the best adver-
tisement Miss Anderson has yet had, and
If 1t Is true she deserves TO have il insert
ed gratis in every newspaper in the union
amt 20 have at least a 50-line puff In each
one of them marked sd. h." Ii is to DO
hoped the denial usual in cases Of this
kind will be postponed for at least week.
There are some who are disposed 10 re-
mark that the report is too good to be true.

Trout rl.h,nr withont nooks.

From The Virginid ctr Negl Chronicle.
The famous hsh picnic which John Skae,
the former millionaire. gave at the reservoir
Of the Virginia and Gold Hill Water Compa-
ny one day when he was on the crest az the
wave Of his prosperity, was a queer one.
Every ComstOcker of any i'm ortanee az sail

everybody who waited IL.

The Kind of Immigrants Needed.

The Kind of Immigrants Needed. +
The great tide of immigration pours
steadily into this country by way OF Casl
tie Garden, New York, and it as steadily
passes on to the West. The countries Of
Europe are being canvassed by agents Of
the great American railroad lines
and of the steamship companies,
and the influences that are being brought
TO bear TO keep the tide flowing Westward
are almost overwhelming. What with
the sale of immigrant transportation tick
cts and the sale Of land by the great
railroad corporations, and the
future benefits they make sure Of
by the peopling Of the country on
which they must hereafter depend for
business, these corporations can afford 10
spend hundreds OF thousands OF dollars
yearly in advertising the real or supposi-
titiOus advantages of the sections OF the
country in which they are interested.
Their well laid plans, and their skillful
and literally sustained camDsigns in
Europe have been wonderfully success
ful, and this success promises to con-
tinue tor an indefinite time.
In Europe. the advantages the South Of
fers to immigrants are almost unknown.
\ few spasmOdic aud ill-advised efforts
have been made to advertise our section
over the water, but they have almost
invariably and very naturally, ended in
failures. AS an oXample-during the
reconstruction era it is said that South
ern State sent an agent to Germany TO
invite immigration. The agent was a
shrewd man and native Of that country.
After spending some six months time,
and about $4,000 in money, the agent is
said to have secured one immigrant
own sister.
There is little demand in the South now
for foreign labor, but thrifty and moder-
ately well-to-do settlers are needed in
every Southern State Some efforts are
being made by the state agricultural de-
partments and immigration societies to
make known the varied resources Of their
respective States, but more work, system
attic work, Of this kind must be done. The
county or local societies that will publish
pamphlets giving all the information
prospective immigrant would wish to
nave, ana list or properties ottered Tor
sale or lease, and advertise extensively in
well-selected journals would, no doubt, ac-
complish much in two or three years.
There are thousands In the Northern
States who can be induced remove to
the South. They belong to the industrious
and thrifty classes. And Northern immi
grants can be obtained much easier, per-
haps, for this section of the country than
can immigrants from Europe tits certain
that the Northern immigrants would
stand much better chance of success.

BUSINESS METHODS.
Opening OF the Commercial Yesr-HOw
to Make a Good beginning.

Opening Of the Commercial Yesr-How
to Make a Good Beginning.
It is customary In the cotton growing
Btates to date the business year from
Sept. 1. Everyone looks forward to the
time when the business pulse quickeus
and new life is given to trade. One ofthe
Ioesns used TO give business good start
at the beginning OF the business year is
advertising. The enterprising mer-
chant uses the columns of the news
paper to inform his patrons that he is
still in the land of the living; that he has
weathered the duh season, and again
s0licits their trade. The newspaper pub
Usher uses the opening of the season TO
review the business of the past year, and
to give his city a frst-class boom.
Trade editions are published and widely
distributed for the benefit largely of those
who advertise in them.
In such editions business men, whether
merchants, mechanics or manufacturers,
ought to bring their business before the
public.
Such advertising may not, in every case,
ibe productive Of immediate results, but
1t will give their business houses a stand
eng abroad that they cannot otherwise OBJ
fain.
No enterprising business man OF this
city who expects to prosper can afford to
leave an announcement Of his business
out of tine Trade Edition OF the MORNING
NEWS. This edition will be issued on
ssept. 5. No efforts will be spared 10 make
1t such an edition as every savannahian
will nave reason 10 be proud of.

II is stated that the zeal for martyrdcm
among the MOrmons has greatly dimin-
ished lately. The few who have been
made martyrs of have not found the JOY
In tribuIation that they probably expected
20 find, and as for the rewards that they
have been taught are laid up for them in
heaven, their faith is evidently not as
strong as they would like it
thought TO be. Mr.. Dickson, the United
States District Attorney for Utah, re-
Gently said TO a reporter that the Mormon
/ leaders were more thoroughly frightened
than they had been at any time in the
past He said that one Of them admitted
TO him that "we must do one Of three
things-go to war with the United States,
leave the Territory, or obey the law. We
can't fight the United States, we have too
great r stake in the Territory to leave it,
and. although the law is against our in
clnation and conscience, l see nothing
for US in the end but submission"
The result of some of the recent prose
cutions In Utah makes It evident that
it will not be long before the laws against
polygamy can be enforced, and there nave
been signs for some months that the Nor
mon leaders are doubtful us to what is
best for them to do. 1t is pretty certain
that they have been considering the adj
visibility Of removing from the United
States, but their present numbers and
wealth would make removal very
different undertaking from their Journey
to Utah.
I No AID toT fValf
Gated in the admission quoted above, that
the Mormons will neither remove from
the country nor fOrcibly resist the United
States authorities. II they cannot evade
the enforcement of the laws, they must
submit 10 them.
Should the Mormons abandon pOlygamy
it is doubtful if their church would en-
dure many years. 1t would in all proba-
bility fall to pieces much more rapidly
than it has grown IL numbers and power.
While the outlook for the MOrmons APP
pears to be by no means encouraging,
their missionaries are At work both in
this country and in Europe and they con
tinue 10 meet with a considerable degree
of success. II is probably a question
whether the converts are taught that
pOlygamy is the great corner stone Of
Mormonism, but such is doubtless the
case.
No doubt the Mormons are greatly
alarmed, but they will not obey the laws
against pOlygamy until absolutely COM
PEELED to do 50. The courts in the terri
tories which they infest have no easy
task before them. No doubt the leading
Mormons will make promises of obedience
to the laws, if they can thereby cause the
United States authorities to relax their
vigilance, and show more leniency than
they seem to be disposed to show just now.
II will not do to trust them.

The Survivors and the Dead.

There have been quite number of
pleasant and interesting reunions of Con-
ederate veterans during the summer
Some of them have been largely attended
one or two notably, embracing thousands
Of men who once proudly and bravely
wore the gray.
The temper and tone displayed at these
reunions have been admirable. The eK-
Confederates are not ashamed Of the part
they took in the great civil war. nor are
they afraid TO praise those. whether now
dead or alive, who displayed courage,
skill or patriotism in such degree as to
make them worthy OF especial honor.
At every one Of these reunions, now
ever, there was displayed not only spirit
OF submission to the DEGREES Of Proyi-
dence as indicated by the result of the
war. but of loyalty to the Union. Not one
word was uttered TO which exception
could be taken.
In many of these reunions Federal and
Confederate veterans mingled and showed
esteem for and confidence in each other.
and demonstrated to the country that all
bitterness has passed away.
Other reunions are TO be held in the near
future-some OF companies and others of
regiments. While the survivors are greet
ing each other. and remembering their
comrades who have passed away, would
it not be well for them to formulate an
appeal to the people OF the South in behalf
Of the last resting places of the Confeder-
ate dead? There cannot be doubt that
the people would readily furnish the
means to restore and preserve the graves
Of the dead heroes OF the South If proper
appeals should be made 10 them. Would
il not be wise for the Confederate veterans
TO take this matter in hand at their re-
unions, and agree upon some plan tor
raising the necessary means TO give Con.
federRte graves the care TO which they are
entitled? II they viii take the lead, there
is every reason to think that the people
will respond promptly and literally.
