Success In the South =.

AUGUSTA, GA, Dec. 27.-The
Chronicle will say editorially tomorrow:
"Iu year of unexempled depression in
cotton manufacturing in the eastern

The Langley manufacturing company
has incareased its capital curing the year
from 100000 to 100000 and will
pay semi annual dividend OF
three per cent. on the in.
creased capital. The records of these
mills show that the South is the most
inviting field for cotton manufacturing
and the indications are that in the near
future new factories will be started in
this section. In 1880 the South con.
sumed two hundred thousand bales OF
cotton. In 1893 the southern mills con.
sumed 100000 bales. There could be
no stronger evidence Of the South's sup
eriority over the North in its advantages
for cotton manufacturing than during
the past year nothern mills have been
shut down while mllsi in the South have
been running on full time and have paid
good dividends"

Mia. Yearein's Body Found.

ITHlcA, N. Y, Dec. 2e.-The body OF
Miss Yeargin, who was drowned IN Ca
yuga lake several weeks ago, was
washed ashore last night near the de-
pot at McKinney's Station, on the Au-
burn branch of the Lehigh Valley
road. Miss Yeargin went rowing with
Instructor Merriam of Cornell College
some six weeks ago, and failed to re,
turn. They we're undoubtedly drowned
together by the capsizlng of their boat.
Great interest has been taken IN the
case on account of the prominence or
the young people. At one time re.
port was circulated to the effect that
Mr.. Merriam and Miss Yesrgin had
been seen together in New York city
after the date of their appearance from
Ithlca. The finding of Miss Yeargln's g
body disproves that story and no doubt
remains but that they met their death
by the accidental overturning OF thell
boat. Miss Yeargin was. one OF the
prominent young women at Sage Col
iepe. Her home was in Laurens, S. G.
Dr.. Merriam 8 home was at Chattanoo'
ga, Tenn.

EAsLEY, s. G., Dec. 2l-Henry Oats
a respectable young white man, was
killed by "Babe" Moore last night at a
frolic at the house of Moore's father,
about four miles east Of this place. Oats

had had q fight with a young man
named Snoddy, and also with Moore'a
father. He then drew q pistol, and
went back into the piazza Of the house,
where Moore met him with an nxe.
Moore claims that Oats pointed his
pistol at bis breast, and at the same
time threatened to shoot him. Moore
then struck Oats on the head with the
axe, crushing In his skull and causing
death within bn hour. Moore made 40
attempt to escape, and was carried to
Jail this evening. after the Coroner had
concluded the inquest.

Poor Girls.

The poorest girls in the world are
those who have never been taught to
work: Rich parents have petted them !;
they have been taught to despise labor
and depend upon others for living
and are perfectly helpless. If misfor-
tune comes upon their friends, as it Of
ten does, their case is hopeless. The
most forlorn and miserable women on
earth belong to this class. 1t belongs
to parents to protect their daughters
from this deplorable condition. They
do then great wrong if they neglect
1t. Every daughter should be taught
to cara her own living, The rich as
we'll as the poor require this training.
The wheel of fortune rolls swiftly
around-the rich are very likely to be-
come poor, and the poor rich. Still to
labor is no disadvantage to the rich and
is indispensable to the poor. Well-to'
do parents must educate their daugh.
ters to work; no reform is more imper-
atiye than this.
