Joseph Williamson, Jr., for plaintiff, +. f.
Southland for defendant. This is an &C
tion to recover the sum of $50 and so
cents interest for repairing a sleigh.
When the defendant was marshal of this
city he had occasion to arrest one Joe
Hoyt at Pettengill's Corner, who was
drunk and disturbing the peace, and Hoyt
resisting Crawford called into use the
double-seated sleigh of one VIM. jackson,
into which Hoyt was put. Joseph prompt
ly proceeded to kick out the sides of the
sleigh, break two standards of one of the
seats, and two bows in the. top covering.
The plaintiff says the defendant author
lied him to repair the sleigh and make it
as good as before the injury, which he did,
and he claims that his bill is just and
reasonable. The defendant says the sleigh
was an old one when he put Hoyt into it,
worth from $5 to 49, and he says that he
told Buckley to repair it, but that the cost
was not to exceed the value of the sleigh
after it was done. He claims that the
bill is an exorbitant one, more than
double what it should be. Verdict for
plaintiff for sI1.32. Adjourned until
Monday at 10 o'clock.

CAS- an evidence of the growth Of the
cotton manufacturing industry in the
Southern States it is worthy Of note that
twenty cotton mills are now in opera
tiou 10 South Carolina, and throughout
the past two years Of industrial depres-
sion every mill in that State has been
run on full time and has been making
money. with but two failures to record.
Favorable circumstances surround the
industry in the South, for it is possible
to manufacture cotton there far cheaper
than in the North. The question of
dividends, however, is the most inter-
estiug one to those who have invest
ments in cotton enterprises, and the
returns just in from the half yearly
reports show that capital pays from
eight to twenty-five per cent, the best
average eatimate being twelve and a
half per cent for the past three years
Three mills alone in South Carolina earn
$750,000 annually oD an investment Of
about $6.O00,0 600, and this is the
indication that the Southern States have
uncovered new source Of revenue that
must bring great wealth within their
borders. Southern cotton manufsc-
turers are not fighting the tariff, but
giving strict attestion TO the business
demands Of the market. while the
Northern mill proprietor is discussing
how to secure dead equality in the
channels of trade and passing BY the
importance of giving full business atten-
tions to the laws Of supply aud demand,
which. after all, are the only true
business regulators.

Deer Sir: l send you the enclosed

thoroughly Investigated aud give the
Commission the result thereof. Mr.
Hogan has made complsint to me, but
I canno. believe that any railroad in
this State would have in its employ a
conductor who would be so disregardful
Of the comfort and safety Of the travel
ing public and who knew so little Of the
duties devolving upon him as guardian
of the wives and children Of our people
while travelling on the public trains.
IfMr. Hogan's statement is true, it
is your duty to discipline the conductor,
and publish to the world that the "OId
Reliable" hitherto known ss having a
full corps Of conductors known as gen.
tIemen, will not let its reputation be
tarnished by such treatment as Mrs.
Hogan and her children were subjected
to. Yours truly,

JOSS is TO HAVE A NEW TEMPLE.
ITO BE CONTINUED

Surrounded by True Oriental Luxuries, the
Deity VIII Receive Due Homage.
'sThe Chinese citizens Of Chicago will
soon have the most magnificent joss
house in America, % said Sam Moy to a
reporter. seThe entire furnishings fer
the place are now being designed and
made in China, and we expect to open
the house in about three months Our
people are l.abitually very quiet and not
given to display or parade, but the dedi-
cation Of the new josshouse will be at
tended with Chinese ceremonies and
parade far more elaborate than has ever
been seen in Chicago and probably in
the United States.
ssThe place will not be used as a joss
house alone, but also as the lodge or
headquarters of the Chinese Freema-
sons of this city. There are many Of
these here, and the society is hundreds
Of years old in China In addition to
this it will serve as place for the tenn
pora1y entertainment Of the people Of
our nation who make a few days stop
in the city. They will be housed and
taken care Of there. -
Hip Lung, probably the wealthiest
Celestial in Chicago and relative Of
Sam Moy, explained that every piece of
furnishings for the joeshouse is being
designed and made in China, and that
the furniture will cost not less thar $2,-
600. It will be made Of ebony and
other rare and costly oriental woods and
will be elaborately carved and heavily
decorated with gold.
The entire cost of the house viii not
be less than 81, 600 or IS, 900, and there
will be nothing like it in America It
will have two large jossrooms, with the
finest Chinese hangings, decorations and
furnishings Then there will be a large
general parlor or reception room for en-
tertaining the general guests and two
private parlors for special use.
The location Of the josshouse is not
yet hown--Chicago Post.
