IlOW TO BUILD a CITY,
Small Manufacturing Establishments 9
that Would Require but Little
Money.

The Dalton Argus, in its leading
editorial last week. urges the people
OF that town to put their money in
manufacturing enterprises and thus
secure q permanent growth Of the
place. TO show what a few thousand
dollars could do that paper gives the
following figures
$4,000 would establish trunk fac.
tory.
$4,000 would establish q basket
and butter dish factory.
$1,000 would put up broom fac.
tory and start hundred farmers to
raising paying crops Of corn.
$4,000 would start q factory for
buckets, trays, measures, etc.
$4,000 would start tile and pot.
terry factory.
$4,000 would start Il factory for
the ma''nCacturc Of tale into stand.
ard understandable wares.
$4,000 would start Il horse collar
factory.
$4,000 would start y nice little
Shoe factory, where our people could
get honest goods :t q moderate cost.
MANY more manufacturing enter
priscs could be mentioned that would
require but small outlay oC capital,
and would bring sure returns to the
investors, besides greatly enhancing
the value Of city property. The
great need Of Spartanhurg is facto-
rlcs, and our people should make
some effort 20 secure them. 1t is not
necessary for these factories to be
mammoth concerns, costing great
sums of money, but such institutions
as the Argus mentions. The most
prosperous cities are those built up
by numerous small factories.

THE HEALTH or NEVBEI>I,y
a Very Small Death Ratc-What the
Record Shows.

To the Honorable Mayor a,,d III.
dermen Of Observation-Disclosures The
Board of Health of Newbcrry, under
your direction, have had registration
of all births and deaths carefully
and regularly kept for the past year,
running from August 18th, 1855, to
August 18th, 1886. 1t is with great
satisfaction that we call your atten-
ton to the following mortuary report
for the twelve months, substantialing
what the medical fraternity have al
ways claimed for our city, that her
mortuary record would be a surprise
to those who have regarded New
berry as sickly beyond her sister
towns, when her mortuary record will
show fewer deaths per 1000 among
the white population than almost any
town in the State.
Malarial poisoning is found from
the southernmost point Of Florida
along the Atlantic coast to Maine.
The Connecticut, the Hudson, the Po.
tomac, the Mississippi, from its mouth
to far in the Northwest, the Brazos,
the Rio Grande are all generating
foci for malarial poisoning, as are our
rivers in this State. And malaria as
predisposing cause Of disease
affects this entire section of country
from the seaboard to the foot Of the
mountains. And from this predis.
posing cause Of disease the city of
Newberry suffers alike with all her
sister towns. But as to the mildncss
OF the type of the disease we would
call your attention to the fact that
we have had only five deaths from
fevers, inclusive Of remittcnt, IT,
phoid and typho.malarial, in twelve
months, and that the mortuary re-
cord Of Newberry compares NEST
favorably with that Of any town in
the State.
In population of LOO whites and
1900 colored, aggrcgating 5000 in
habitants, there have been deaths
among the whites Is, colorcd 33; az
gregating So deaths. Showing the
following average per 1000 inhab-
itants.
Whites 1,7O0; deaths %; death
rate per thousand 14.4.
Colored 1900; deaths 33; death
rate per thousand 20.
Total 5000; deaths 59; death rate
per thousand 1871.
This compares fayorably with the
death rate in any Of the large cities
as shown by the following list ac-
cording to the returns of the register
general of England. Paris %; Brus-
sells %; Berlin 81; Vienna 20; Cairo
So; Alexandria 81; Calcutta II; Edin.
borough II; Liverpool %; London
18; Baltimore 23; New York 81; and
shows our people who spend the
whole twelve months Of the year in
our city that they live under as fav.
orable climatic influences as they can
find.
During the year measles and
whooping cough Of an unusually sc.
vero type have prevailed cpiicmi.
ically. The sanitary ARRANGEMENTS
of the city arc in good condition, bu,
would be improved by a better sys.
tenn Of sewerage and drainage. 10
accomplish the latter satisfactorily it
it will be necessary to have the Rail
road culverts deepcned and widcncd,
which matter the Board hopes is in
a fair way of being accomplished.
All of which is respectfully sub.
mitted.

lowing letter yesterday from S. A. HamEn.

This community is a good deal excited
over the disappearance of one joseph Per-

least the train men the next morning re-
ported that hat was found on the car
platform, and Persault, or whoever took
the traih at Verdi, was not seen after the
OrluSe was crossed. Searching parties have
looked IN vain for the body, and although
few drops Of blood have been discovered
on the rocks under the bridge. no certain
indications Of a body having fallen can be
seen. The unfortunate man may have
fallen rom the cars, and, being stunned by
the iail, have walked into the river and
been drowned, though the bridge watch
man says lie walked over the bridge imme-
diately after the passage of the train. and
heard no unusual noise.
Ny object in writing 10 you is on the
suppoSition that the man may have fallen
asleep, instead of from the train, and been
carried past Truckee and kept on to Sacra-
mento and Will you kindly take the trou-
bic to notice if there is a new arrival in

ing description: Hight about feet 10

us any Information in regard to him YOU
Will greatly oblige his friends. | am told

declaring that lie was bleeding to death.
lie was taken inside, made as comfortable
- possible, and physician summoned,
who found him suffering from along and
deep cash on the right side of the face and
severe bruises on the back of the head
and the left arm. The wound on his face
bied very profusely, and he was fortunate
IN reaching good quarters so soon after be-
ing hurt. He remained there until yester-
day morning, when he was taken to the
County Hospital. His account of the man
ner in which he received his injuries was
in effect that he called Monday night at the
residence OF Miss Leonard, Alb NJ street, to
pay friendly visit, but was met at the
door by one of her brothers, with whom he
had dispute, as the brothers did not like
the attentions Ellis was paying to their
sister, and had told him to stay away.
While they were discussing the matter near
the door, some one approached and struck
him with weapon of some kind, pre-
sumed by him to have been pistol, on
the back OF the head, the arm, and finally
on the side of the face.

Communication of Sentence.

Governor Stoneman has COMMITTED the
sentence Of VIM. McGrath, who was
sentenced in San Francisco in September.
1879, to serve fifteen years in San Quentin,
for the crime Of burglary in the first de-
gree, to ten years. The communication, to-
gether with the credits earned by the pris-
oner's good conduct, caused his term to
expire yesterday, and he was accordingly
released. The Board of Prison Directors
recommended such Communication upon the
ground that Hon. NJ. c. Blake, the sentenc-
ing Judge, stated to the Board that he
would not have sentenced McGrath to more
than ten years had the sentence been dis
cretionary with him, the law permitting no
less than the sentence named. Also, the
Communication was recommended by four
of the Judges of the Supreme bench, viz
