OF rich vein which he has discovered in

1t bids fair to rival with, if not excel, the
rich gold deposits Of the Wolfe and Tiger
mining Company in Spartanburg of which
the dutchman and his partner j. II. Whit

The timber rambler is now engaged in
one of the most gigantic enterprises which
is the sale Of about 70, 900 acres of noun

pleasant. just rs the sun was sinking be-
low the western horizon they were made

Lathem and Miss Lizzie Bright with H. ID.
Williams. The reception Immediately fol-
lowing was In keeping with every other fen
tnre OF the evening-plain and informal,
Dut much enjoyed. The reception on the
day following, at the hospitablc home of
'Uncle Wash" Farr was ,"old fashioned" and
all that that adjective implies. Suffice il 10
say that those who partook of the bosni,oli,
ty OF this home shall not soon forget it.

DEAR SENTlNHL:--A ! have not seen any
thing III your valuable columns from these
parts, thought would say that we far
mcrs are ut work in earnest preparing for
the crop OF 93 with bright prospects The
hard winter did not freeze out the small
grain crop, though it is very small yet but
with good stand we have plenty of time
yet for it to grow. In fact bad out look
for wheat III March Is pretty good sign
for good crop.
l am not Of tic opinion that there will be
n large cotton crop planted this year in this
section of the county because seed nrc very
scarce and heard good farmer say there
was more money in irish potatoes at 25 cts.
per hushcl than cotton at 10 cents. Anolh.
cr said he planted a half acre in onions las,
year and expected to plant two acres this
year. He also said that it would pay "a
use yuano under onions and potatoes.
Well our burg is on a boom. Three saw
mills in hearing and all busy. This does
not look like hard times.
NJ. w. Hester has lumber on the ground

vile and some Of Our citizens are suffering
there, but think if Mr. Latimer would
turn his attention to doing something for
these unfortunate people for one could
see some reform that w0nld amount to
something. Think of it, these people have
to haul corn thirty miles take 50 cents per
oushcl for it when Is or 20 bushels is BIZ
load Tor a good pair of mules and gone
from home three or four days and return,
with 81. 90 or $40 But if they were al
lowed to turn it into whskey they would
have $50. or 40. This is a dig induccmen,
to violate the laws. They have ever had
my sympathics and think they ought tc
| bc allowed to make up so or 100 bushels
OF com into whiskcy without violating the
law. This would beat all the sub-tacasur,
plans ever heard Of, or least that is thu
opinion OF the OLD MAN.

In New York the impression
prevails that President Cleveland
will call Congress together in cy-
ira session, before September LIST
i'll order Ia relieve The financial ST
tuahnn and restore confidence bv
promptly repeating the Sherman
silver act. Such action on the
part of the President is not i'm
probable IN view Of the fact that
a majority Of the Democratic con-
grossmcn have been questioned ON
the sherman act and are in favor
Of ITS repeal. The change of SEN
timent has been marked because
within the past four month mem.
bcrs of Congress have seen the
evil operations of the law which
bears the name of the Ohio Sena-
tor and they realize that the fl
nances at the country will remain
unsettled until jbr law is repealed.

When Sugar Was First
Known.
Did Its Use Begin in India or il
Arabia?

-hioplft.
The word sugar was first used
by Pliny, who says that the Ro-
mans first became acquainted with
it in Arabia. He states that In
dian sugar is preferable, and calls
it honey found it canes
Lucanus, in his description of
India, speaks of sugar, and says
that it was much appreciated.
Status, in his book on The
Festivals of the December Satur-
MALTA, says that among the cata-
bles which the Emperor Domitian
made the people scramble for wa
a substance obtained from the
Eleosian cane. Eleosia was Il pro-
vince of Arabia, and the food
mentioned was sugar.
Other classical writer's make
mention of it. Dioakor,les writes
very innocently about it; he says
the name sugar is given to kind
of honey which is found in canes
and is not produced by bees.
Strabo writes to the same effect.
and adds that when solidiGed it
resembles salt.
The sugar cane was introduced
into Sicily in ll4S, and soon after
wards into Spain. About sixty
years later the Spaniards intro
duced it into Antilles. During
the seventeenth century it was
cultivated on large scale by im-
at the end of the eigh-
teenth century Jamaica alone was
producing 5000 tons annually

No sensible person will contend
that break, anywhere i'll the par
ish of Orleans, would not result
in incalculable damage; further
no person, who has paid any at
tcntion to the progress in levee
building in this parish, will pre-
sumo to question the fact that had
the levecs not been steadily raised
and strengthened during the past
fifteen years, that this city would
be underwater to-day.
With these truths admitted and
in the face Of an urgent demand
for higher levees to resist the pre-
sent high water, is it not reasona-
bic to conclude that the future
safety of the city is seriously men
aced. Were the levees between
Cairo and New Orleans intact and
the entire flood waters of the up
per valley and the tributaries
forced down past this city without
u break, would the levees on our
front be sufficient for the strain
and pressure that they would be
called upon to resist?
These are u few of the vital
questions that we must find
practical answer to within a few
years, whether we will or no.
With breaks in several places be
tween this city and middle Arkan-
sas, we are still compelled to raise
the protection levees of this part
of the valley what would we
have to do if there were no Gre
vases? Daily Item.

The Lcvcc Question.

Forccful reminders like great
floods, conflagrations, epidemics,
earthquakes or other tremendous
happenings serve the good pur-
pose Of keeping thinking people
wrought up to an intense sense of
constant danger. Such people as
a rule become vigilant and active,
and, II sensible, they are always
prepared for the greatest misfor-
tune which may threaten.
The opinion Is growing into the
dignity of Il belief in the Mississ-
lppl Valley that unless there is a
