THE ROTHsCHILD INFLUENCE.

The accession of Lord Rosebery to
the premiership of the British empire
increases the prestige of the famous
banking house of Rothschild. Lord
Rosebery has been identified with the
latter cver since his marriage with
Miss Hannah Rothschild. She be-
queathed to him her vast fortune when
she died, but it remains in the hands
of the Rothschild firm. Not q dinner
party does he give but that one of the
Rothschilds is present, and his politi-
cal power and social prestige are in
creased a hundredfold by the knowl-
edge that he has at his back the mex
haustible of the Rothschilds,
who control the finances of nearly
every continental country. At Paris
they have One of their c~oreligionists
and adherents, M. Raynal, who is min
lister of the interior and possessed of
the most extensive executive power in
France. In Italy it is one of their race
again, Signor Sonnino, who is minister
of the treasury. At Vienna and at
Pesth their word is law at the ministry
of finance. At Brussels King Leopold
does nothing without consulting M.
Lambert, the son-in-law and represen-
tative of Baron Alphonse Rothschild,
while in Portugal and Spain the treas
ury is bankrupt, and there is no Jew at
the head of affairs.-San Francisco
Argonaut.

LAURENS WANTS a RAILROAD
SCHEDULE.

We call on the people of Laurcns to
unite in q riot.
The need for a riot is pressing, the
causes are all on hand and the time is
-1Tpe for the riot to materialize.
Nobody will ask the cause of this
suggestion.
The public is we'll aware that a rail.
road schedule is needed on the Laurens
and Newberry Road.
It's q wrong and a gigantic source of
irritation that the convenience of the
travelling public is not consulted by
the management of this road.
The trip to Nowberry should be
made in an hour and the connections
should properly connect.
1T Is not worth while to say that the
road don't pay because if it don't pay
to operate it properly there is no rea-
son why it should be operated at all.

AWKWARDNESS.-Right here is the
secret of awkwardncss. 1t is sclf-con-
seriousness. a girl who thinks about
how she is going to look when she ex-
tends her hand will hold it out as stif
as a pump-handlc. If she is worried
about the appearance of her walk she
will stalk oven the landscape like q
wooden dummy. What q person does
gracefully is done uncOnsciously. So,
if q person would learn grace she must

SCALY LEG IN CHICKENS.-The use
of kerosene is strongly recommended
by pOultrymen as q cure for scaly log
in chickens. This affection is caused
by a mite which lives under the scales
of the legs. 1t is generally supposed
to be contagious, although some mem
bers of the flock never become affected
with it. Crude petroleum is also used,
and is rather better for young chickens
as it is not so severe as kerosene.

REDUCED TO JUNK.
Wrecking Operations on the Steamer
New York.

The hull of the steamship City of New
York ia being blown to pieces with dyna-
mite, and what is left of the once magnlfi-
cent steamer will soon be reduced to a mass
of truck. For the past ten days Captain
Whitelaw has been continuously at the
wreck, and has taken permanent quarters
at Point Bonita. where he will remain un-
til the work is completed. Only two days
were calm enough TO allow much progress,
bus all day yesterday and part Of Wednes-
day charges OF dynamite we're exploded
inside the hull and under the bottom. tear
ing the stauhcb structure apart and throw
ing clouds of spray.
From the Cliff House the operations
were plainly visible and were watched Dy
crowds of the curious. A good MANY peo-
pie were tlso observed on the banks of the
north shore, WHO were watching with
| eager looks the gradual disappearance of
the big wreck.
1t has been found impossible to save the
engines intact, Notwithstanding that they
were nearly new. They will therefore be
broken up and reduced to the condition OF
| junk. There is no trouble anticipated IN
saving the boilers, which have seen little
service and are practically as good as new.
| Whitelaw expects to save about 1000 ton s
| of iron from the sheathing and machinery,
| and also expects some salvage from the in
| desiructibie portions Of the cargo. At
! present force of twenty men, including
! five divers, are in the wrecking outfit with
the wrecker Samson. 1t is thought that
1t VIII take at least four months before the
last vestige of the New York will nave
found its way to the junkyard.

that Is the same as raising or lowering

was suggested.
No! we have a regular succession of
bars OF different lengths. Sometimes we
have a regularly recurring succession of
four bars of your common time and then
one bar of triple time. Sometimes we
have The most frightfully complicated
succession of different times, but the
