COGN RESIGNS,
The Augusta Mill in Charge of New
superintendent.

AUGUSTA, GA. July 2S.-supt. Cogin,
OF the Augusta mill, has resigned. 1t is
alleged that Mr.. Cogin and the mill man.
agement have not been IN complete har-
mony as regards the present mill trout bic
and that he deemed it best to sever
his connection with the mills.
The NEWS correspondent failed to
see Mr.. Cogin tonight. Enough
ia known TO say that resignation has
some connection with the strike of the
operatives, and it 10 significant that sew
eral days ago, when it was rumored that
Mr.. COgin had rendered his resignation,
the mill operatives unanimously asked
the directors to request the superinten-
dent to withdraw his resignation, and
stated that he had always been the
friend OF the employees. Since then it was
thought that the resignation had been
withdrawn and forgotten, and it was not
until late tonight that the rumor that the
resignation had been accepted was veri-
fed. A. F. Crombe succeeds Mr.. Cogin.

cradle excitement over the death by
strychnine poisoning Of Miss Lucy Yam
cey, handsome young lady of II. There
is reason to believe that the young woman
had been outraged by negro named Ben
Ford, ana, brooding over it, committed
suicide. The Coroner's investigation has
developed the fact that the girl was i've
months advanced in pregnancy, and the
jury rendered verdict that she commit
ted suicide to avoid disgrace. The citi-

Bad Effect OF K

The influence of acids in retardinp or
arresting salivary digestion is further Of
Importance in the dietectic use of pickles
vinegar, salads and acid fruits. In the
case of vinegar it was found that one
part in 5000 sensibly retarded this pro.
cess, a proportion of one in 1000 render
cd it very slow, and ono in 500 arrested
it completely; so that when acid salads
are taken together with bread the effect
Of the acid is to prevent any s~aliyarv
digestion of the bread, a matter of little
moment to a person with a vigorous di-
gcstion, but to a feeble dyspeptic one Of
some Importance. There is q very wide.
spread belief that drinking vinegar is an
efhcacious means of avoiding getting fat.
and this popular belief would appear
from these experimental observations to
be well founded. If the vinegar bc tax

1t will greatly interfere with its digestion

What A Lady Is.

The definition of a simple idea is the
great difficulty of photographers and
others. To judge from dictionaries and
treatlses on ethics it is almost, or, accord
ing to some, quite impossible. But
some very complicated ideas arc almost
equally incapable of exact definition.
Five hundred years ago Nine. Barnes of
Sopwell Priory, or the writer of the
"Book of st. Albans," whoever she was.
endeavored, with singular want of sue
cess, to tell Chow gentlemen should be
known from ungentlemen." The virtues
of chivalry are enumerated without piv-
ing us a very distinct idea of k%nighthood.
and then we come to the nine articles of
gentleness, which are these: That a GEN
tleman should be lordly of countenance,
treatablc in language, wise in his answe
perfect in goverance, cheerful to faithful
ness; that he should use few oaths in
swearing, be 'rbuxom to Goddis byd-
ding" knowing his own birth and bear
ing and dreading to offend his sovereign.
No doubt these are all marks of gen
~tleness, but most inquirers will want a
little more. DR.. johnson is not more ex-
plicit. According to him, breeding is
the chief thing. A gentleman, he says,
is "a man of birth, a man of extraction,
though not NOBLE" but he allows, as a
secondary meaning, "a man raised above
the vulgar by his character or post"
Dame Julians avoids any attempt to tell
us "what is a lady," although in her
process of Hawking" she teaches us that
''there is a merlyon, and that hawk is for
a4ady." and informs us, moreover, that
gentlemen and honest persons have
great delight in hawking" johnson

Limit OF Hearing.

1t has been found by DR.. TAFT that the
ear in women can perceive higher notes
that is, sounds with a greater number OF
vibrations per second-than the ear in
men. The highest limit of human hear.
ing is somewhere between Al, 900 and
AZ, 900 vibrations per second. Few per.
sons have equal sensibility to acute sounds
in both ears, the right ear usually hear.
ing a higher note than the left. The

Curious Action Of Mind on Mind.

talking of these tests recently with 8
friend, who has been a Professor until
within a short time in an important insti.
tuition, he described a trial made at his
residence by a company of acquaintance
who were spending an evening with his
family. At his suggestion, and as an
experiment which might afford amuse-
ment and instruction, a lady wa chosen,
was blindfolded and seated on a chair.
and was furnished with a pencil and pa
per. The Professor left the room and in
the hall drew a zigzag, ponderous figure
on a paper he held. Returning and
standing behind the lady on the chair.
and fastening his mind intently on his
drawing, she began in q few moments to
draw slowly the irregular lines he had
put on his paper. To test the matter
still further, he again left the room and
drew as perfect a circle as he could on a
fresh paper. Returning, and under the
same conditions, the lady drew a similar
circle, then hesitated a moment, and
then, to the surprise Of all, drew a straight
line from above the circle down into it.
In a moment he remembered that on 90
ing out the second time his first intention
had been to draw as perfect a rectangle
as ne could, and that he had carried out
this intention so far as to draw the per-
pendicular line or one side of the figure,
and inadvertently left this line on the
side OF the paper when he changed his
mind in favor of the circle. The lady
had followed a reversed order of the pro-
cesses Of his mind, and, the first inten-
ton being indistinct in him, had in a
hesitating way repeated the straight line
and carried it into the circle instead of
keeping it outside Of it. Christian In

FOR THE FARM AND HOME,
Preparing Manure.

A barnyard can and should be kept
neat. The manure should be stacked in
siae centre, and the droppings in the
ether parts of the yard should be thrown
ON this stack at least once a day. The
manure stack should be kept lowest in
ahc central part, and if the drainage of
she roof be occasionally turned on this
all the better. This mass can be loaded
moro easily into wagons, and will be
of greater bulk and strength than
Il allowed to scatter over the yard, ex-
posed to sun and rains. When the
ground is settling so manure can be
moved to the fields, fortunate is the provi-
lent farmer who has turned his manure
pile twice, and now has it fine and re-
duced in bulk. 1t is in condition to be
appropriated as plant food, and can be
saken to tho field with half the labor
required had it not been worked over.
1t can be spread evenly on the wheat or
meadow lands, while the crude manure
r. thrown off in chunks of forkfuls, to
smother plants and be a nuisance on the
meadow or wheat field. There is a class
OF farmers who have a mania for making
manure. Making for the sake of
she manure is a little like paying a dollar
or two per cord for it and hauling it sew
sral miles to the farm.

If the following account of the manner
IN which young seals are taught to swim
IS true, says Yomth's Companion, it is not
very much unlike the way in which chill
drcn are instructed in the same art by
Pacific Islanders. The babies arc simply
thrown into tho water, but their fathers
stand by to rescue them if they should be
in danger.
a seal mother gives a curious display
OF maternal solicitude in teaching her calf
to Swim. First taking hold of it by the
Upper and for Il while supporting it
above water, with a shove she sends the
youngster adrift, leaving it to shift for
itself. In n short time the little creature
becomes exhausted, when she takes a
fresh grip on its fipper, and again sup
ports it till it has recovered breath, after
which there is another push-off, follow
cd by a new attempt to swim, the same
process being several times repeated to

The NTaelstrom.

When was a boy, twenty-five or thirty
years ago, I used to read in nv geo.
graphy, with a kind of a shuddcr, of an
awful whirlpool, called the Maelstrom.

vessels that came anywhere in its neiph-
borhood, and out of whose mysterious
centre nothing could escape alive. What
Is the reality on which this story was
founded. DR.. G. G. Tiffany takes pains
to tell us in a recent account of q trim to
Tromso, this: cit is the one humbuo of
Norway. 1t is simply a dangerous cur
rent at the south end of the Laffoden
Islands. between the islands of Mosken-
acs and V@roe. When the wind blows
from certain quarters, particularly from
northwest, and meets the returning tide
In the strait, the whole sea between
Moskenacs and Vmroe is thrown in such
agitation that nc ship could live in it.
In calm weather, however, it is crossed
in safety three-quarters of an hour before
Hood tide. What gives it the name and
appearance of a whirlpool is that the set
of the tide is changed at its different
stages by the narrow limits in which it
acts. Its movement is at first toward the /.
southeast; then, after flood tide, it turns
from south toward the southwest, and
fnallv toward the northwest; so that e
takes twelve hours to complete the circle
OF its movement. Rather slow motion
Tor such a fast character as a whirlpool.
