Any idea whether Of truth fiction is available for the
making of good story.
The theme chosen will have much to do with the
Of the narrative
In selecting topic keep in view the possibilities of
picturesque dramatic narrative good story may be

SOUTHERN GLEANiNGS.
Proposes a Trust.

John I. Roddey. member of the
firm of John I. Roddey & Co., brokers,
New York. in letter to the Colum bia
Is. C.) State, proposes to the farmers Of
the south the formation of gigantic
trust to control the price of cotton.
He claims that the low price of cot
ton is due to the combinations
against the farmer and the lack
of combination among them. He sug-
gests a capital stock of from $50, ,o00,-
600 to 500, 900, 900, and points out the
fact that if cotton can be raised in
price from five cents to sixteen cents a
pound on an 5000, ,000-bale crop, more
than the capital stock of the trust
would be saved the farmers in one
year. The shares are to be low enough
in value to allow every farmer to take
one or more. He suggests a meeting
of representa- tives of the alliance and
other farmers associations to be held
at an early date in New York or some
southern city. He urges immediate
action.

But the Announcement OF the Fact will

LONDON, Oct. 30.-The Central News
correspondent in Shanghai says it is
rumored in Tien-Tsin that the young
empress is dead, but the fact will not
be announced nor mourning be worn
by the court until after the birthday
of the dowager empress.
The Central News correspondent in
Toxic telegraphs:
'It is not believed here that the jap
anese will attack Port Arthur before
the end of the week. Gen. Nodzu,
who commands the advance force of
the japanese army, has abandaned the
pursuit of the fugitives from Kulen-
chao, as he does not wish to be bur
dened with more Chinese prisoners.
The japanese march upon Feng Huang
Chang has begun.
The London correspondent Of the
Berlin Kreuz Zeitung had an interview
with a Japanese attache here Sunday.
The attache said lie learned privately

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct. ga spe
cial received here tonight from Fort
Smith says United States Marshal
Crump received a telegram from In
dian Agent Wisdom, at Musllogee, in
which Agent Wisdom says he has re-
liable information that Bill Cook and
his gang, numbering twenty one men,
are near Tallasha mission, nine miles
northeast of Muskogee.
The conductor who brought in the
passenger train this morning from that
country brings the same information.
He says further that Notwithstanding
these reports the officials here believe
it to be ruSe Of friends of the bandits
to turn public attention away from
other parts. Six deputy marshals
hastened to Cameron Friday night in
answer to a telegram saying the ban

in other words, it appears that in
the period named more than six and a
quarter millions Of people have been
so attracted by the better conditions
of the people of the United States
that they have deemed it worth the
sacrifice to exile themselves from the
home of their nativity, from the scenes
and companions of childhood and
youth and from all the associations of
their ancestors and the graves of their
sires to make home in this new
world, in land of strangers. And
they go not back again. They be-
come the patriotic bone and sinew Of
this great commonwealth. And no
wonder. We think we have hard
times in this country this year, and
yet it is prosperity itself compared
with the permanent conditions of life
in the United Kingdom.
Apply the test to pauperism. There
was expended for the relief Of paupers
in the United Kingdom in 1892 El0,-

A BOLD ROBBERY.
A Young Man Held Up and Robbed on
Stepping from a Train.


FORT SMITH, Ark. Oct. %. 9.-Will Nc
Kenzie, young man travelling from
Missouri to Texas. was held up and
robbed at West Fork, station on the
Frisco forty miles from here, last night
about IL o'clock. Just as the train
rolled into the station Mckenzie
stepped out of one of the rear cars on
to the platform. He was Immediately
confronted by a stranger, who covered
him with 6-shooter and went through
his pockets relieving him Of S2e in
money.
As soon as the train moved on the
robber left and Mckenzie stepped
back into the car. There were several
deputy marshals on board the train,
but Mckenzie feared TO make an OUT
cry lest the robber would shoot him.
1t is thought the robber is one OF
gang who have been hanging around
West Fork and alarming the people
there and the railroad officials re-
gently.

some Interesting facts as to the
downward tendency of food prices are
wen by the American Grocer" from
US market reports since 1869. 1t ap-
pears that a certain quantity of four
'een articles of daily household con-
sumption which cost S62 in 1869 can
now be bought for $50 and that the
only article of general use that is
nlgher now than it was then is coffee.
ms cheapening is attributable to in
creased production, improved methods
u manufacture, and gradual lower
lug OF railroad freight rates.
