Now, III this church we have resolved
upon the plan OF conducting the music by
organ and cornet. We do it for two rea-
sons ono is that by throwing the whole
responsibility upon the mass of the people,
making the great multitude the choir, we
might rouse more hcartiness. The congre
cation coming on the sabbath day feel that
they cannot delegate this part Of the great
service to any one else, aud so they them
selves assume it, We have had Il glorious
congre gational Staging here. People have
come many miles to hear it. They are not
sure about the preaching, but they can al.
ways depend on the singing. We have
heard the sound coming mp like "the voice
of many wtrcrs," but it will be done at a
better rate after awhile when we shall

imm"Islty of this privilege.

Ninety. Eve per cent of all the rum
made in the world is the product of seven
distille1ies in and around Boston. They
are all old establishments, some of them
running back to the old colonial days.
~ Few, fany, lines of business have
made such surprising growth in this
country in the last decade as that of
flower culture. The census shows that
from less than 400 in 1870 the number
of florists establishments have increased
to 1869. These are valued at nearly
$40,0O0,000, and give employment to
1G,847 men and 1858 women, who earned
in 1890 more than S8,000,000.
The strike in the Pennsylvania coke
regions is said to be the most disastrous
in all the history of coal mining there.
The cost of the disturbance so far is said
to be 81 1920, 900, of which over million
represents the wages which the $4,000
miners have lost in the past three months.
The balance is an estimate of what the
strike has cost the operators on account
of damages incidental to 3 forced shut
ting down. AS usual, the bulk of the
expense falls on the poor striker.

Referring to the New Orleans lynch.
ing, msny papers discuss the question
why the Italian murder returns exceed
those of every other nation on earth.
The ST. James Gazette, quoting Bos:o's
statistics on homicide, shows that Ital-
.:iisns are eight times more murderoua than
other Europeans; that in Italy ten per-
sons are tried every day for murder and
eight are convicted, while host of homi-
cides are never recorded. The italian at
home. it says, is worse than the italian
abroad. The conclusion is that the Ital
! Ian has murder in his blood, and that
racial excitabilty is heightened by 9
warm climate and the ra:ional habit OF
I the use Of the knife.

THE CUMBERLAND GAP. RAILROAD.

The clipping below from the Green
SSville Ne.us of May 2, is encouraging, and
Shows thst these people mean business.
zIhed delegates present at that conference
represented communities that are alive to
their interest in securing the road, and as
san:eyidence of their zeal and faith in the
matter they stand ready to give literally
s0ftheir means to secure it.. Troy, Abbe-
vile and Due West, as we'll as other
Splaces along the proposed route, have
already voted tax for it, to be paid as
soon as, the road is completed and run
ming to the several places. Anderson is
always wide awake to her interests, and
8 viii make strong pull to get the road.
When good things are being passed
saround she will do her full part to secure
he; share. The clipping referred to, da-
ted at AbbeYille, is as follows:
An important meeting wss held here
last night looking to the extension of the
Cumberland Gap Railroad from Edge6eld
to Abbeville and Anderson. The meet.
ling Was attended by prominent men from
5 Troy, Due West, Bolton and Anderson.
The latter place was represented by Geo.
e. Prince, Esq, and Mr.. J. A. Brock.
! They report that Anderson is aroused to
z the importance of the road, and is will
ling to do her full share to insure the road
going there. a committee was appointed
TO confer with the officers of the road and
. see what could be done tosard securing
the road"
Originally it was intended for this road
Ito come from Edgefeld to Troy, Able.
vile, Due West and Belton. The people
here, however, propose to make small
change from this line, and substitute
Anderson for Belton. The wisdom of
such a change is apparent. There are
magnificent opportunities in store for the
road as soon as it reaches this point.
g If the people along this line secure the
read, though, they must be up and doing.
Greenwood is bestirring herself to cap.
) ture the prize, and if successful, there is
Imminent danger of the road going across
TO. Laurens County and then 10 Green
vile. As there is roadbed already gra.
ded on this route which could possibly be
! secured at cheap rates the Greenwood and
sGreenville people are hopeful, ard are
doing all they can to get the road.
Anderson has had severe lesson in this
matter. The Air Line road was snstched
from her very grasp. Greenville prosper.
ed on her loss. Let us see to it that we
are not again left in the lurch. Anderson
cannot afford to be rated as a town With
inferior railroad facilities. It IS not in
keeping with her enterprise and prosper
ity.> Nothing less than 8 frst.class trunk
line will please her, and she must have it.
Her best prospects for such road seems
to be in the Carolina, Cumberland Gap
! and Chicago Railroad.
). Another matter for consideration.
Since the Richmond & Danville has leas-
ed the Georgia Central system, of which
the Savannah Valley is branch, freight
rates have increased at this place 10 per
cent. Does Anderson need new road,
and is it worth working for?

Decline of the Blondes.

PittSburR Dispatch.
Frank Hudson, the English author, has this
to say upon the question as to whether blondes
are becoming extinct: Everybody knows that
the children playing round the cradle of our
race were all fair The ancient Hebrews-even
they-were almost to man fair-haired. The
old Greeks and Romans, sprung from the gods,
were sunny-haired, as were also the old
Venetians, as Ruskin tells us. Why have all
these people changed? Why have we in these
islands changed? I'll tell you, sir--it's all the
liver That's what's the matter I once asked
a physician why it was that dark-haired people
had such weak liyers, while fair people never
knew whether or not they had liver. His
answer was: i cannot tell you why, but you
are right-dark-haire people must be always
careful of what they eat' There is the whole
thing in nutshell. Heaven sent US golden
haired women In the olden times, when we were
good, and the devil sends us cooks In modern
times, when we are bad. Our grandfathers'
liyers are ruined, and we inherit their bile,
which turns our hair black"
