CHAPTER TX.

Flowers! flowers everywhere! The
most expensive sort at the most expen-
sive season! But expense was never
taken into account in the Norcross es-
tablishment. Did Mrs. Norcross desire
thing? And was that thing the very
best of its kind? Those were the only
two questions worth the asking or the
answering.
Friday was Mrs. Eugene Norcross'
Gay. Not that every day was not en-
tirely at her own frivolous disposal, but
even butterflies are subject to exhaus-
ton, and if Mrs. Norcross had not set
apart one day out of the seven for '.spe-
cial observances," the gayest butterfly
Of fashion that all Esplanade street, in
the city of New Orleans, could boast.
would have succumbed to the burden of
its own popularity.
On Friday, therefore, one was sure of
finding Mrs. Norcross at home, clothed
In one of those marvels of French cos
TUNES that all her .sset was raving
over" One was also sure of finding the
house converted into q bower of roses,
while from every corner of the spacious
lower floor. during the regulation
hours, floated the mingled aroma of
English breakfast tea and feminine
gossip.
Apparently no one enjoyed Mrs. Nor
fcross' Friday afternoons more thor
oughly than she did herself No child
freshly admitted INTO fairy-land could
have. outdone her in joyous gayety, as
she flashed from group to group of the
tea-crinkers, moving her 1.-THE form

Women In War.

There died recently woman who dur
ing one of the battles of the civil war
rescued the flag from the enemy and held
it aloft in a rain of bullets undaunted in
the face of death. It is now known that
hundreds of women from various mo-
tives donned the uniform of the volun-
teer, shouldered musket and marched
to the front Miss CarrolPs services are
still matter of debate in congress, and
she will eventually secure substantial
Justice and the reward that she so richly
merited.
History is full of examples of womanly
heroism. There has been no political
crisis in which they, too, have not toiled
and suffered, walking to the stake, lay
ing their heads upon the block and as
cending the steps of the gallows without
a tremor. In many straits it has been
women who have inspired and encour-
aged the men, showing how heroism may
rise superior to physical limitations and
fearlessness remain undaunted to the
end.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

A Novel Method OF Lighting.

A balloon with electric lights attached
to it for lighting cities is the latest idea
of turning the light of lights to prac-
teal use. This idea may seem very vi
sionary. but c. A. Smith, one of San
Francisco's inventors, has sufficient con-
fidence in the scheme to commence oper-
atoms of constructing balloon for that
purpose. This balloon will not be of the
ordinary silk bag pattern, but will be
made Of aluminium in the shape of a
cigar, pointed at both ends. 1t will be
about 40 feet long and Is feet in diameter
at its largest point and will contain gas
to sustain it.
Fans will be constructed so as to hold
it point up to the wind. A cable con-
tanning electric wires will hold it at a
sufficient elevation so that the light will
be spread over the area to be illuminated
to the best advantage. The balloon will
sustain six arc lights, or it can be so
made as to be covered with incandescent
lights, each one of which will be inclosed
with reflector so as to concentrate the
rays Of the light and throw them down
ward
The inventor claims that, counting the
first cost of the balloons and their main
tenance, the total cost of lighting a city
the size of San Francisco will be reduced
considerably, as one balloon will suffice
for from four to six blocks. At the same
time the tangle of deadly and unsightly
wires from the streets will be removed
and danger from fires reduced.-San

Curing q California Snake Bite

The hand and arm We're first thorough
" cleansed in hot, indicated wash. and
the places where the rattlesnakes fangs
entered We're lanced, so that the poisoned
blood might escape. 1t was again washed
clean, and 333s per cent oily solution of
camphorated picnic acid was injected
into some 25 places in the hand and arm
The only remaining treatment was to
keep the parts perfectly clean.
Any one bitten by RATHER should i'm
mediately suck the wound and spit out
the blood. Then tie a handkerchief
tightly above the wound and open it with
a clean penknife to let it bleed. While
this is done, not moment should be lost
in getting to surgeon. The snake may
also be killed while you wait.-Pomona

The Future of Cotton manufacturing.

From Our New York Correspondent
Mr. NJ c. d. Borden has within the past
year gained distinction as one of the great
powers in a certain branch of the CONNER
cial and business world He is an authority
on cotton mann featuring especially, and has
recently completed one of the greatest cot
ton mills in the world. When asked his
opinion of the future of manufacturing in
terests, especially cotton manufacturing,
Mr.. Borden said:
Cotton manufacturing in the south has
come to stay. 1t is going to be greatly de-
veloped in the next century. 1t is going to
be of vast benefit to that section of the
country. The number of mills will be great
ly increased and the quality of the product
steadily improved. This will add millions
to the wealth of the cotton producing
states.
The pre-eminence Of the New England
states in cotton manufacturing will not,
however, be threatened by this great and
healthy development in the south. l do
not look for any serious competition be-
tween the manufacturers of the two sec
tinns, but am inclined to think that in the
next century it will be found that Ameri-
can cotton manufacturers will have wrest-
ed the markets of the world from the great
manufacturers of England, who have for
the greater part of this century controlled
these markets. just as surely as the tide
rises, just SO surely American cotton goods
in the next century are going to command
the markets of the world We have already
almost reached that point. We are compel
ing in some sections of the world with Man
chester, and successfully.
l think this is true, too, of many other
lines of American manufactures. Our peo-
pie are slowly, perhaps, but surely reaching
the time when American goods will be In
greater demand than those produced In
Great Britain or upon the continent OF
Europe. In the next century the dawn OF
that day when our manufacturing supre1n-
acy is acknowledged will be witnessed, and,
think, by many people who are now living.
The commercial development of the
United States in the Twentieth century
will be prodigious Those of us who are in
business life now get some hint Of it, and it
is clear to me that while we are to be the
greatest agricultural nation in the world
we are also just as surely reaching forward
for commercial and manufacturing suprem-
acy as for supremacy in these products OF
the soil. 1t is going to be great century
to live in, this one which beg ins seven years
hence.

Something Queer About Flies.

Close observers have noticed that flies
will gather on a half drunken, sleepy
sot, while dozen sober men in the same
room are not molested by them. The
flies will buzz around their subject with
great delight, frequently alighting on his
perspiring face. Off they will go and
return again and again, quafing the al
coholic nectar issuing from his. pores.
After awhile their fight becomes I'M
certain and eccentric, and sometimes
they come in collision. Recently a
drunken man raised his hand and brushed
them from his face. Some fell to the
floor and lay there paralyzed. After
awhile they got on their feet and weari-
ly few off, half dazed. Perhaps they had
head on.-Austin Statesman.

For Committee

EDITOR CAUCASIAN: - Searching
for date quite different nature,
found in All old book, published in
1896 called IAN Historical, Geogra
phical, commercial and Philosophi-
cal view of United States America"
by W. WinterbOtham, the following:
1.-The policy of a loan-office was also
eminently beneficial. The proprie-
taries of Pennsylvania sold their
lands in small tracts, and on long
credit. The purchasers were indul-
ged with the liberty Of borrowing, on
interest, paper bills of credit, out of
the loan office, on the mortgage of
their lands. Perhaps there never
was an institution which contributed
more to the happiness of the peo-
pie, or to the tiourishing of new
country, than this land loan-office
scheme The province being enrich
ed by the clear interest of its loaned
paper, was thereby enabled to de-
fray the expenses of government
with moderate taxes. The indus
triOus farmer was furnished with the
means Of cultivating and stocking
his farm. These mprovements, by
increasing the value of the land, not
only established the credit of the
paper, but euabled the borrower, in
few years to pay off the original
loan with the productions Of the
soil. The progressive improvement
of Pennsylvania may be estimated
from the increase of its trade. In
the year l704, that province imported
goods from the mother country,
amounting in value only to eleven
thousand four hundred and ninety
nine pounds sterling, but in 1772 to
the value of five hundred and seven
thousand nine hundred and nine
pounds, an increase of nearl y fifty to
one in little more than half a cen
tury.n

JOAQUIN MilIer'S Prediction.

am not wise or learned in things to be,
but will venture few predictions. In the
first place, our government will be less COM
pick and go forward year after year with
less friction and better results-like an i'm
proved machine. We will cut off the for
eign vote, the ignorant vote and the YER
dant vote. AS we grow better in body and
mind venerable men will have their place
of honor, as of old. If a good man by tenn
perance and healthful toll and wise care
preserves his body and mind, like Glad
stone, for example, he has saved the life OF
ut least one citizen. brave thing to do OF
sid.
And it is not fit that such a man should
be put in prize ring to fight with lusty
young adventures for his place in the SEN
ate. 1t is already his by right. Let 10000
entirely qualified voters, representing at
least 100000 people, send up to the state
capital their oldest man, and it Is al on the
register Let the state then send to Wash
ington its two oldest Gladstones as sena-
tors, and so on up to the president, and SO
on down to the justice of the peace. What
a saving of time, temper, manhood, money!
When we have grown generation or two
of Humans, Blaines, Gladstones, we will
leave elections in the hands of God, where
we found them. This is my plan. my
prophecy.
AS for cities, we will build new ones, on
pleasant, beautiful sites, as men now build
hotels. Even now millions are waiting for
those who will build new city, complete
sewers, pipes, pavements, all things COM
plete, and empty the unclean and rotten
old into the healthful and pleasant new.
We are going to have great cities, such as
have not been. Whereabouts don't know,
but all the world is going to town. Ma
chinery has emancipated man from the
fields.
What about big fortunes? Well, think
we will some day require the bulk OF the
rich mans money, when he is done with it,
of course, to build national parks with and
