Leaving for me

In the new industry twelve hundred labor
ers are employed at good wages and very
light work. Sixty thousand dollars is a
fair remuneration for my severe mental
strain. Twelve hundred and one of our
population. pure, native Americans, are
engaged in business profitable to them
and the other 59,oo8,79o are losers of only
one cent each. This business | will con-
tinue, and will further agree not to reduce
the wages of my help, to employ only
natives and not to import aborers from
Hungary, Poland, or Italy to compete
with them. There shall be no shutdown.
no strikes, and in ten years agree to have
free library, gymnasium, and hospital
for my help. further agree to find polti-
clans who will point to this new industry
as one that has grown up entirely under
the beneflcent workings of protection
will refer to this industry, myself as de-
pending absolutely upon the glorious
American idea of protection. But can
you afford this? Haven't you a nobler
use for the 100000? Cannot YOU, for
this amount employ the 1900 in some
manner that shall be profitable to you as
well as to them' Protection to American
industries is profit to the few and loss

OF all the accidents most feared by rail-
road engineers, and one Of frequent oc-
currenct, Is that of the breaking Of driv-
ing rod while the engine is running at
high rate of speed. How it can occur, as
st often does, and those in the cab escape
with their lives is always considered q
miracle. The minute the heavy bar, or
rod, as it is commonly called, breaks, or
the crank pin which fastens the end to the
driving wheel gives way, the massive
piece Of iron goes whizzing through the
air, striking the engine and the ground,

comes IN contact with. Old engineers can

OF the stage actresses may be roughly

The Office of Chief of Police, made vacant
by the death of Gen. Anderson, is not likely
to 70 begging. There are already half a
dozen or more candidates in the field. The
place pays $4,000 The salary from the
city is $4,000 and 5000 is paid by the Ocean
Steamship Company for the management
of its police department.
Among the names mentioned in connec-
ton with the Office are Assist

Col. r. J. Davant. C. c. Hardwick,
Clement Saussy, Gen. Lafayette McLaws
Capt. H. NJ. Branch, and Maj. Jordan F.,

candidates. Assistant Chief Green's friends
are pressing his claims, and he
is the choice Of the men on the force, who
naturally are anxious that the Office shall
be filled by promotion. 1t is not inproba-
be that he will be elected. The Council

Not dc Beaulieu Victim.

The Beaulieu mystery has been revived
by letter of Inquiry addressed to DR.. 7. B.
Chisholm by Mr.. Williams, an attorney of
Sherwood, Tenn. Mr.. Williams writes that
his wife, who was about % years Of age,
has not been seen nor heard from since juno
20, last, when she lett Kingston, s. c., and
reached Atlanta on her way TO Chatta-
nooga The writer saws that her trunk was
stolen. In describing his wife he says that
she had had all her teeth extracted, which
establishes the fact that the remains found
near Beaulieu were not those of Mrs. viii.
Jams, as the unknown had a set of upper
teeth, and possibly lower ones, but as the
lower jaw was missing this is only con.
jectural. The Beauliou case must remain a
mystery for awhile longer.
