An Inhuman Colored Mother.
TGreenville News May 81

On Monday last Lou Gaillard, col
ored, gave birth to a child in cotton
field about eleven miles from the city.
She was working in the field and was
separated from the other hands. After
the child was born the mother dug a
hole in the ground with hoe she was
using and put the child in and covered
up the entire body. Another negro
woman who was working in the field
suspected something wrong and openly
accused the mother Of giving birth to
the child and secreting it. This the
Gaillard woman denied. The other
told her if she did not tell where the
child was she would brain her with
the hoe she held in her hand. The
threat frightened the inhuman mother
and she conducted several to the place
where the child was buried. They
found it's feet protruding and took 1t
out nearly dead. A physician wassent
for, but it was not thought the child
would live.

PAsTEUR'S SUCCESS.
Statistics of Five Years Treatment of BY
drophobia-
+ From the New York Herald. I

From the New York Herald
The Pasteur Institute has just pub
lished its complete statistics regarding
hydrophobia and the results of the
Pasteur treatment during the five
years which have elapsed since the
method was first applied to human
subjects.
1t was on the 9Th of July, 1855, that
little Joseph Meister was brought to
Paris by his heartbroken mother from
his home in Alsace. The boy had been
so cruelty bitten the day before by a
mad dog that he could scarcely walk,
and his life was despaired of. Up to
that time NJ. Pasteur had never dared
to experiment upon man or woman
with the terribls virus which, in an at
tenuated form, had time and again
succeeded with animals. The boy
lived, and went back to Alsace strong
and we'll, and is to-day as sturdy lad
as one could wish to see. Since then
the Pasteur method has gone round the
world, and is every year saving thou
sand of lives in both hemispheres..
HYDRoPHoBIA STATISTICS.
Between January /, 1886, and De-
cember 21, 1889, not less than 1888 per-
sons had been bitten by mad dogs and
treated at the Pasteur Institute. OF
these, fifty-three died. In striking con-
trast to this small fraction is the per-
centage of deaths among persons bitten
by mad dogs and not treated by the
Pasteur method. Physicians are unan-
imous in placing this percentage at
1890. In other words, of 1893 persons
actually treated, 1865 would, but for
the great discovery, have died. NJ.
Pasteur can therefore have the salts
faction ofknowing that more than l,2C0
lives have been saved by his institute
alone during the past five years. =.
1t appears, furthermore, that OF all
the departments Of France it is that OF
the Seine which is the subject to by
drophobia. This is accounted for by
the immense number of dogs which
roam about Paris and its environs. AS
a remedy for this state Of things rig
orous measures are urged and enforced
by the police regarding stray dogs and
dogs known to have been bitten by
mad dogs.
THE SEASON OF HYDRoPHoBIA.
Another fact demonstrated with the
statistics is that it is not in summer, as
is generally supposed, that hydropho-
bia is most to be feared, but in the
spring, from February to May.

THE COTTON BAGGING QUESTION
SOLVED.
Ramie, Pine Straw, Cotton Stalks or
Other Vegetable Stuffs Reduced to
Fibre and Then Woven Into
Cloth.
Atlanta Journal, May 10.]

ATLANTA Journal, May TO-.
JUMPER, May 9.-An invention
which will forever solve the cotton
bagging question, process by which
ramie, cotton stalks, okra stalks, pine
straw Or any other vegetable texture
can be reduced to fibre and than woven
into cloth, has assumed shape.
Mr.. J. D. Stanley of Eastover, S. c.,
is the inventor Of the process and Mr..
Franklin H. Lummus of cotton gin
fame and of the quiet town of Juniper,
Georgia, is general manager of the
whole business.
Bagging factories will be erected all
over the cotton growing States, pine
straw will be the material used, new
industry will be started, the cost Of a
covering for cotton will greatly be
lessened, and the whole country will be
Immensely benefited.
Mr.. Stanley's process has been thor
oughly tested. A glance over the cor
respondence of Mr.. Lummus reveals
the perfect faith of experts in tee busi-
ness, and numerous offers of sites, etc.,
which he has received, show that the
people are willing to give their faith
substantial backing.
Mr.. Stanley sold his patent to the
Wilmington Fibre Company. This COM
pany has offered it, at an immense
profit, to an English syndicate. This
syndicate holds an option which ex-
pires the first of August. Should they
fail to trade, an Eastern company
stand ready to purchase the patent at
an increased price. The trade is being
made through Mr.. Lummus, who will
Incorporate his gin works into the busi-
ness. Big money has already changed
hands, and that bagging factories will
be set up all over the country i2 an
assured fact. Some of the factories will
turn out covering for this years crop.
The company will invest, to start on,
$4,000, and will be capitalized at a
million dollars. The papers are all
drawn, and it only remains for the
money to be paid. Propositions offer
ing factory sites and all abundance of
pine straw land have come in from
many quarters. The South Carolina
railroad, which runs from Charleston
to Columbia, offers the use of all it's
land, with additional inducements for
the location of factories.
Messrs. Trayers & Co., the largest
carriage company in New York, pro-
nounce the ekra fibre made by the
Stanley process the best fibre for rope,
bagging, etc., ever seen. The okra fibre
is, in color, beautiful white, and in
strength superior to hemp or fax. Okra
will grow on any soil with little cultiva-
ton, and on rich land can be grown as
high as fifteen feet. 1t is cheaper than
jute, and the present tests indicate that
it will make better rope than any fibre
known. Okra and pine straw are both
difficult to burn. A lighted match
hardly make an impression on the
fibre of either.
The value of the pine straw bagging
made last season Of green straw was
greatly reduced by its dying the cotton
which it covered. The Stanley process
uses dry straw, requires no chemicals
and produces bagging that will not
stain at all.

COLUMBIA, May l3.-This must be
veritable "campaign Of education
The reckless attacks which have been
made upon the administration OF the
State Government by Capt. Tillman
and his supporters compel resort to be
made to statistics. Charges must be
met by facts. Statistics may not be
very interesting to those who maintain
the fraction of a mill of taxation to be
great burden, but they will have to
be listened to in this campaign.
Here is ammunition for great many
speeches in tabulation made by Comp
troller General Werner Of the appropri-
ations by the Legislature at its last ses-
sion. The classification is his and
must be considered authoritative.
These tables will present in a form
adapted to easy reference the several
items of State expenditure. They will
be used by both sides in the contro-
versy, and possibly diverse morals Will
be drawn from them.
But, without entering upon minute
analysis OF the figures, it may be re-
marked that the burden Of State taxa
ton is less than 81 per capita of popu-
lation, that the total expenditures prop
erly attributable to the executive, ju-
dicial and legislative departments
could be more than paid by the phos-
phate royalty received by the State, and
that almost half of the expenditure is
for the payment Of interest on the State
debt and the support Of the charitable
institutions Of the State.
