SPOILED A MILL.
Fight i'm an Excavation
Stopped.
The Sloggers Were Warned by Con-
federates, Who Blew Police
Whistles.

One of the straugest places ever selected
for prize-fght was chosen by gang of
local sloggers last week. Their names are
known in the saloons south of Market
street, but few. if any, of them have
records.
The place selected for the mill is deep
excavation at the corner of Second and
King streets.
The hole was dug by the employees of the
electric-light company, who are digging a
trench for their conduits on Second street.
The excavation, which is several yards in
diameter. is lighted at night by incandes-
cent lamps.
This cavity was picked out as the proper
place for scientific conflict by the slog-
gers who wish TO shine in the ring. Last
night was chosen as the time for the fight.
1t is customary whenever gentlemen aud
others are inclined to exhibit their pugiis-
tic ability to notify the police in order
that they may be secured from the intru-
sion of impecunious or too demonstrative
policemen. But the gladiatOrs of the
Second-street ring did nothing conven-
ti0nal.
They stationed men with police whistles
around the excavation, who were in
Structed to whistle whenever a policeman
appeared.
1t was glittering success. The fight
commenced at 1850 o'clock and several
rounds had been fought when passing
citizen looked down into the hole and saw
the sloggers at work. He told police
man what he had seen, and Sergeant
Whitman and Officer j. Enright FASTENED
to the battle-hole. They we're within few
hundred feet of the batte-hole. when they
heard several police whistles blown.
They fastened to the place and arrived in
time to see about fifty men scampering
away on the other side of the hole. The
plcketS had done their work and done it
well. No arrests were made because
nona could ha made

Death OF q Child.

Charles Wesley, infant son OF DR.. and Mrs
c. w. Cason. died at Hodges. s. c.. on the lltl
day OF november 1898, at 6 clock p. m, afte
painful illness Of several days. Age thir
teen months
It Is peculiarly sad 10 part forever, with ont
we love, especially bud OF promise in th'
person OF an infant and only son.
Such GRIEF as affiias these parents is vel
nigh overw helming, and universal sympathy
goes out to them from every heart In thei
sore bereavement.
II is not to be forgotten that, in the inscru
table wisdom of the Ruler OF the universe, ne
sex Ia spared, no age is exempt. "Deatf
comes equal to US all and makes US all eaua
when II comes"
Bot there comes 10 these parents, from th'
sadness and darkness OF the tomb, Light II
which may be read from tablets Of gold, thes
words OF consolation:
After the knell, the wedding bells;
After the bud, the radiant rose;
joyful greetings from sad farewells:
After our weeping, sweet repose.
After the burden, the blssful need;
After the flight, the downy rest;
Alter the furrow, the waking seed;
Alter the shadowy river-rest.

unaU horses naturally fast walkers viii
travel 20 miles a day in the plow with
out exhibiting any more fatigue than
Others that walk naturally only half as
far and accomplish only half as much.
With a 8 inch furrow team that walks
II miles an hour will plow an acre in
Z hours and 90 minutes, while if it walks
% miles an hour it will finish the acre
in hours and would pillow p acres in
10 hours. Most of our modern two horse
walking plows are made to cut 10 inch
furrow, and they will turn 10 inches by
breaking 2 inches, but this adds too
much to the draft, especially in stiff soil.
At the walking contest on the state
fair grounds at Columbus, o., in 1899,
the first prize mare pulled half ton OF
coal at the rate of over five miles an hour,
and her owner said she would keep that
gait up all day This would be imprac-
ticable in the pillow, but or 81 miles
would not be impracticable, and the gain
over the 1 mile team is apparent from
above figures.
The time lost in turning is considera-
BILE. The advantage of long pulls in this
respect is seen from the following fig
ures: With furrow 234 feet long the
time lost in turning in 10 hours work is
5 hours 4 minutes; furrow 447 feet long,
time lost in turning is hours and "A
minutes; furrow 900 feet, time lost 2
hours and / minute; furrow 1923 feet,
time lost 1 hour and % minutes. The
time lost in turning, however, is not all
lost time, for the team requires some
'let up" from the constant strain that
exists in this work.
