She Loved Him In Poverty.

ATLANTA, Sept. 24.-Richard Hornig,
a poor German, settled neal Anstell
some time ago. lie was an honest.
Woodworking farm laborer, and won
the respect and confidence OF all who
knew him. He received but little at
tentlon from the women in the settle
ment. But there was n poor girl,
Miss OShlelds, who was always kind
to the stranger, and their friendship
soon ripened into love. AS both were
very poor, matrimony was not thought
of.
~ few months ago a letter with q
foreign stamp arrived at the Anstell
postoflice, directed to Richard uorniR.
1t announced to him the death of his
father in Germany, and that he was
sole heir 100000 marks. Mr.. Hornig
visited Germany, had no trouble in
getting his fortune, and returned to
Anstell last week.. OF u this
change in his condition made a marked
change in the reception accorded him.
But his heart was still true 20 the little
woman who had been his friend when
ne was a poor stranger, and he made
her his wife to-day.
Miss O'Shields was taken from the
cotton field and arrayed in silk and fine
linen and surrounded by all the luxuries
that wealth could buy. Her husband
says that he intends to send her to the
best schools in the old world to fit her
for her new life. When asked why he
did not marry an educated girl, Mr..
Elornig replied that such showed him
no attention when they thought him a
penniless stranger, and he would always
feel, should he marry n of them, that
his wife wanted him only for his money
lie knew the bride he had selected truly
loved him, and this, he said, was what
he desired above all else.

Llntless Cotton Seed.

Such ii thing as lintless cotton seed.
Not long since we saw a boil of it which
Weeks i'll the Fork, and last week we
saw a statement in the Marion Star
that a gentleman Of that county had a
few stalks Of it in his field. We learn
from the Greenville News that Mr..
Cureton, the manager of the cotton seed
oil mill in that city Is experimenting
with the lintless cotton OF ii. r.. Fergu-
son, living near Woodruff, in Spartan
burg county.
In speaking of the matter the News
says: The object of Mr.. Cureton's ex-
periments is to find what value the seed
has as an oil producer and as a fertilizer.
the cotton at the oil mill. They were
not unlike the ordinary stalks IN APP
pearance and no difference can be seen
in the green bolls until they are opened.
Then the observer Is astonished. He
sees nothing but a boil full of green seed
such as he would find on opening a pea
pod. The merest trace of lint is found.
The stalks In the possession of Mr..
Cureton contain n or two open bolls
and when u close inspection is made
there IL again surprise. The seeds stick
in the bolls until they are we'll matured
and If not picked drop out. When ripe
they are intensely black in color and
resemble the seed of the famous Peter
kin cotton. They are larger than the
ordinary seed. Mr.. Cureton has not
fully completed his experiments. but he
has made 4 few simple tests. He says
the seed has much more oil than the
ordinary seed and far more meal. lie
believes the cotton can be easily cult.
waited and will yield from 300 to 400
bushels on the acre. He believes, from
what he now sees, that there IL a great
future for the cotton as an oil producer
and fertilizer maker. The seed are
gathered much like peas and the cotton
Is harvested much like other cotton.

Cornorsd by His Crime.

MINNEAPOLIs, Sept. 25.-Con.
science has finally forced Jacob Brown
to confess 4 murder that he committed
eight years ago. Since 1883 Brown has
been fleeing from his crime, but it has
pursued him the length and breadth of
the continent. At last in Minneapolis
he has confessed to Superintendent of
Police Henderson.
There Is n man whose heart will
give great bound of Joy when be hoars
of the confession. Ho is Convict GRAY,
a ''lifer" in the penitentiary at Chester,
Ill. Gray has been thought the MUIR
dercr instead of Brown. He was con.
victed at Salem, Ill. Browns comics.
sion will set him free. Browns story
was so strange that the chief at first set
him down rs a crank. The man was 80
earnest, however, that the chief ordered
him locked up, and sent a telegram TO
Chester, Ill. This morning the answer
come: 'IlOld the man; will send for
him."
The story of the murder is q strange
one. Brown was tramping and got into
n box car. EIc stumbled over a man | n
the dark and n fight ensued. Brown hit
the man with a coupling pin and fled.
Not long after Gray, another tramp
came along and went to sleep in the
same car, not knowing he had a dead
man for company. The next morning
when he arose he found that his arm
had lain in a pool of blood. He tore off
the bloody sleeve and fled. That sleeve
caused his arrest, conviction and sen.
tence to life imprisonment. He does
not wen know who the real murderer
was. Brown claims to come frnm q
well-to-do Southern family, but will not
his real name.

FaIntnes Awful Face.

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 24.-Reports
received here from Tamboif and it's adj
Jacent provinces announce that the
Lemstyos have provided for the resow-
ing ofland~and to furnish supplies of
grain until January next. After that
there will be the greatest difficulty to
ensure food for the people. AS the col
lection OF taxes IS impossible, the salar-
les OF local administrative bodies have
been suspended. Even il funds to SUP
ply grain are obtained the distribution,
which will be over wide famine tracts,
VII! be difficult. and the maintenance
of hospitals, schools and asyiums is
doubtful.
The scarcity of oats and hay is COM
polling farmers to sell live stock at
mock prices. For instance, a horse for
z roubleS, a COW for 5 rOubles ana colts
from 20 to SO copecks. After a recent
county fair in n district the skeletons
OF forty horses were found by the road
side. The animals had been killed for
