A Huge SMindle. !

The. last two issues of the IntelGgencer,
published at Wadesboro, N. C.,....give an
account of huge swindling scheme which
one J. L. Stone, piano and organ deal.
or, of Raleigh, N. O., has been attempt,
ing to practice on the farmers of North
Carolina. From the latelkgencer's state
ment Stone sometime ago bought six
hundred bushels of cotton seed from q
farmer near Raleigh, for which seed he
paid twenty.three cents bushel. These
seed he had put up in packages Of one
pound each, which he instructed his
agents to sell at FIVE dollars each, or one
hundred and fifty dollars per bushel.
The seed were to be sold asan entirely
new variety of cotton possessing merits
which made. it vastly superior to the. best
varieties Of cotton now, grown. Stone,
it is claimed, hired alarge corps ofagents
and sent them out to sell these seed, at
the same time giving them special in
structions to avoid all towns where news.
papers we're published. He hadnot been
in the work long, however, before the
LntelIgencer discovered the swindle he
WAS seeking to perpetrate on the people
and published a detailed account of his
plans and purposes. Stone denies the
charge and threatens suit for libel
if a retraction is otmade.

The Kind Of Wives Wanted.

Lexington, Ky, has, a theological
school, some of the students Of which
have provoked great deal of criticism
by attending the theater and by publish
ing in their college paper the following
racy description Of the kind of girls they
want for wives: "The buxom, bright
eyed, rosy checked, full breasted, bounc-
ing lass, Who can darn stocking, mend
trousers, make her own frocks, command
a regiment Of pots and kettles, feed the
pigs, chop wood, milk COWS, wrestle with
the boys, and be lady witbal in COM
pany is just the sort of girl for me, and
for any worthy man to marry. But you,
-ye pining, moping, lolling, screwed,up,
wasp. wasted, putty faced, cousumptive,
mortgaged, music numbering, novel
devouring daughters of fashion and
illene,s, you are no more fit for matri
mony than pullet is to look after q
family of fourteen chickens: The truth
is, my dear girls, you want moro liberty
and less fashionable restrains, more
kitchen and less parlor, more leg exercise
and less sofa, more pudding and less
piano, more frankness and less mock
modesty, more breakfast and less bustle.
Lose yourselfa little, enjoy more liberty
and less restraint by fasion, breathe the
pure atmosphere of freedom, and become
aomething as lovely and beautiful as the
God of nature designed"

Petroleum on.

Petroleum oil is found in Pennsylvania,
in New York, in Ohio and West Virgin
10. and therelare evidences that deposits
may also be found in other States. The
volume of the business has already grown
to twenty seven million barrels a year.
This represents a weight of four million
tons, or about three times the weight of
the entire cotton crop of the United
States. The production of crude oil was
last year aboutsixty-two thousand barrels
a day. The shipments were seventy -four
thousand barrels day. -Four or FIVE
years ago the production exceeded eighty
thousand barrels day, though the ship.
ments were but sixty thousand. The
difference between the daily production
and daily shipments was accumulated for
several years in large tanks, and this ex.
cess of production, three or four, years
ago, had reached thirty. nine millions of
barrels stored in tanks upon the surface
of the ground. This surplus production
is now being reduced by ten or twelve
thousand barrels day, and lastyea the
shipments from the oil regions Of the
United States amounted to aeventy.four
thousand barrels a day, to over twenty
seven millions year, say to about four
million tons of weight per annum for the
railroad companies to transport.

Mysterious Spirit Pictures.

CLEVELAND, March 18.-The photo.
graph gallery of H. E. Chase & Son,
1859 Broadway, has recently been the
Mecca to which hundreds of Spiritualists
have been focking. The cause of this is
mysterious influence which seems to
hang over the head of the senior mem.
ber of the firm. Some time last
fall Mr.. Chase, who has been in the
photograph business for many years, had
taken the picture of customer, aud
brought the plate ont for exposure. He
was surprised to see. two distinct faces
and two figures on the print instead of
one. Thinking some observer had i'm.
peded the work of the camera, Mr..
Chase destroyed the plate and went about
his other work. .-..---.--..-...-.-e--
The next subject was carefully taken,
and this time 8 mysterious face again
appeared BY the side Of that Of the sub.
ject. Charles Christian, well.kuown
citizen of Newburgh, net long ago sat
for his picture, and splendid likeness
was obtained. But in the print appeared
on either side of him the portraits of bis
two children, both of whom died some
time before. These cases are but q few
Of the many. Mr.. Chase attempted to
keep the matter secret, but the storiea
soon became known, and his gallery is
now visited daily by throngs of Spiritual.

Signs Of Injustice.

There is no time when q man has
keener eye for signs Of injustice than
when he has himself outraged justice,
and is realizing measure of its penal.
ties. Years ago a prominent American
railroad president betrayed his trust
money on fraudulent issue of stock.
iembezzled funds by the half million dol
lars and then. fed the country, taking;
more or less of: his spoils with him.
During the investigation Of his criminal
transactions, it was supposed that among,
other sums he had missppropriated q few
hundred dollars. which were not to be
found ). and accordingly that item was
included in. the published statement of
his stealings. But just here there hap
pened to be mistake; and the abscond-
ed swindler wrote from Europe to one of
the New York dailieo, protesting against
the gross injustice which vas done him,
in this suspicion. He seemed, in fact, to
be less disturbed over his crime and it's
exposure than over the slightest exagger.
alton of, or error in,its minor details as
passed upon by the public. And his
state of mind illustrates the feeling of.
many:a man as to. the duty of others to
be strictly just toward him when he has
practically made himself an outlaw. So
long as an evil.doer, or foolish doer,
can go unhindered in his chosen course
of wrong or folly, he seems to forget that
there is such thing as justice; but
when he finds; himself on the public pill.
-lory, he scans every missile thrown at
him, and if one of these be larger than
what he now supposes to be the regula-
ton size, he is disposed to grieve over
this harsh worlds cruel injustice. A
sense Of Justice is a desirable trait in any
man; but it is better that a man should
exercise that trait in looking at his own
duty to be just toward others, than in
looking at the conduct of. others when
justice is being meted out to him for his
violations of the rights. S. Times.

We have often heard of young men
stealing their sweethearts and running
away to get married, but never before the
other day have We heard of a young lady
stealing young man and running away
to get married. A young lady from
north Georgia has been spending some
time with friends about FIVE miles from
here in the country and upon getting
ready to go home she eloped with one of
our most prosperous young farmers.
The mans father hearing what had been
done became enraged and forbade them
ever going to his house again. The
young couple not being satisfied to live
near him took the cars here for the lone
star State, where they will make their
home in the future. We don't blame the
young lady at all, because they have
showing only once in every four years
and think they ought to make good use of
that time.-Griffn, Ga., Ne,cs.
There are big projects on foot to
convert about 5000 acres of land in

proposed to enclose this large tract of land
with suitable fencing and stock it with all
Kind of game, like deer, turkeys par.
tridges, rabbits, etc., and make it the
great hunting ground of the United
States,$ to which sportsmen will repair
from all sections of the country. 1t is

etc, and make it a place of national rep.
utation.-Macon (Ga.) Times.
"A French physician mentions Gu

child in a certain family was left-handed,
and second, appeared at the age of one
year also to be left handed. 1t was then
learned that the mother always carried
her child on her left arm. She was
advised to carry the child on her right.
The infant, having its right arm free,
began to grasp objects with it, and soon
became right. handed.

Sorghum Culture. +,

I am induced by the success and profit
of last year, in sorghum culture, to try
again with double increase in acreage,
believing it to be the most profitable crop
we can plant. Owing to the scarcity Of
seed last year, I only planted q few acres
on blue pipe.clay bottom land, which I
thought was worthless for any other kind
of crop, and without manure. 1t averag.
ed me about 100 gallons per acre with q
total cost of not exceeding $1,000 per
acre. after the molasses was made, which
left me clear profit of $4,000 per acre,
besides the seed, which is nearly worth
the cost for feeding stock. The fodder is
also good for stock, but I left my fodder
on the ground. / have a neighbor who
has been planting the same land in cane
for five years, and he leaves the fodder
on the ground. He says, by so doing, it
makes better cane every year.
I planted about the 1st of May. A
month earlier would have been better in
order to get through with it before cotton
picking. Iplapted four different kinds Of
seed: orange, amber and two kinds of red
top. Imade up the amber on the 18th of
August. Il did notIike it, iItis too osmall
and not much turn out. The orange was
q month later. I was better pleased with
it than any. 1t turned out we'll, is of
good size and made nice bright molasses.
The red top was.:about two weeks later
than the orange. Itmade turn out, but
not as bright molasses aa the orange, and
and is much harder to boil down.
find it better to let the cane lie in a
pile after cutting, about four or 6ve da. 3;
it takes less time for evaporation and the
orange cane is mellow and almost the
colorofan orange. Iplanted and worked
it like do cotton, but didn't give it halt
the work I do cotton. I see from the
Agricultural report that lime will take
out sorghum taste; ifso it will remove all
objections to using home made molasses.
All that is necessary now to make it 9
money crop is encouragement from the
merchants by buying it from the farmers
instead of keeping for sale the cheap
adulterated mixture called molasses.
About 5000 gallons we're made in q
radius Of three miles from here last year,
which is q equivalent to $4,000 saved by
our neighborhoed. and this money kept at
home. Mills and eyaporators are cheap,
and every heighborhood in the county
can have them.-Henry Massey, in the
Yorkville Enquirer.

Judge R. N. Baskin, of Salt Lake
City, predicts that polygamy will be a
thing of the past in Utah before the ex.
piratiou of ten years. In describing the
effect of the Edmunds law Judge Baskin
says: "Capital is pouring in from every
direction. New mines are being opened
up almost weekly. Money is plentiful
and our future is bright beyond our ex.
pectations. Ifthe present tide of immi.
grafton continues, we-the Gentiles, as
all who are opposed to Mormonism are
called-will within few years control
the politics of Salt Lake When this,
their great stronghold, passes from their
hands, their power will rapidly crumble
away. Apostacy to the faith which the
church can then no longer punish, will
set in I've see evidence of it already, in
fact) and from that time the extinction of
Mormonism will follow as surely as the
night follows the day."
1t is reported from Waverly, Ohio,
that on February IL, 1887, Lizzie Long,
during revival of religion, went into q
trance and announced that she would die
exactly one year later. On the 18th Of
last February, at the very hour specified,
Lizzie Long died
