VERDI is now so years old, but the
dean Of the opera composers is old Am.
broise Thomas, who WAS born in 1871
and is therefore three years Verdi's
senior. Verdi was always on bad terms
with Rossini during the atter's lifetime.
One day Rossini WAS spending few
hours with an old schoolmRte who was
resident surgeon at an insane hospital
near Paris. The doctor saia 'My dear
Rossini, there is a patient here who is
as mad as a March hare and he has
written an opera" Never mind about
that" replied the maestro, "any lunatic
is liable to compose what he calls an
opera" But" persisted the physician,
''thia case ia exceptional, for this man

AGE AND MUSIC.

A gentleman who has just passed
his eighty-first birthday attributes
the good condition of his mind to
The fact that he has had variety OF
occupations which induce him TO
give exercise to different parts OF his
brain as well as of his body without
overworking or exhausting any one
part. Investigation brings him to
the conclusion that those who are
occupied exclusively in one kind of
mechanical labor die before those
whose work is more varied. The
same is true, he says, of the mind as
well as body, and mental health may
be deficient where people think too
much one subject. Music il an art
which more than all others tends to
dispel the mOnotony OF life and at
tairs for us higher level of enjoy
nent. 1t is, therefore, a force which
will help to the attainment of a long,
harmonious life Music brings hap
piness to the home, educates our
emotlons and exercises a most salu-
tary influence upon life.

TRICKBRY DIDN'T WORK

That David B Hill is a sly man il
not often questioned, although he
showed poor judgment in forcing the
nomination of Judge Maynard only
to see him beaten by 100000 votes.
He recently tried a trick on Cleveland,
with what result may be seen from
the following incident.
When David B. Hill prevented the
confirmation of Mr.. Hornblower's s
nomination by the Senate, he had
two objects in view. The one was
apparent, the other concealed. The
| rejection Of Mr.. Hornblower was
made about the same time that the
North River Bridge Bill was passed
by Congress. This was Mr.. Hills pet
measure. But he feared veto from
the President, for the bill was of that
nefari"us kind that grants vastly
more than appears on a casual pc
rusal. Therefore David B. laid aIipep
plot to prevent Mr. Cleveland fir, m
| vetoing the bill Immediately after
Mr. H"rnblow-r's rejection, MIR Hill
and the lobbyists of the bridge bill
| started the rumor that the President
! would veto the measure out OF re-
venge against Mr. Hill. This was
| truly a cunning scheme and we'll
worthy OF David B Hill, for it would
look decidedly bad for the President
to veto an important measure mere
Iy ou, OF personal spite. And so
David and his coterie OF lobbyists
chucklrd to themselves whenever they
thought Of the hole they had put the
President into. But, alas, they reck
oned without their host They for
got that appearances go for nothing
with Grover Cleveland The bill was
not only vetoed, but it's trickery
clearly exposed. For it not only per
mitted the construction of piers in
the river by the New York and New
Jersey Bridge Company, for whose
sole benefit the bill was supposed to
have been drawn, but by some art
fully wOrded clauses it allowed an
other bridge company, not mentioned
in the measure, also to construct
piers lower down the river. Thus did
Mr. Cleveland defeat a big 'Job,'' and
at the same time lay bare the jug
glery of David B Hill.

COTTON MANUFACTURING

The South produces over 60 per
cent o. the worlds cotton crop, but
1T has only about one-tortieth OF the
spindles. 1t is estimated that it
would require the investment OF fif-
teen hundred million dollars to man
ufacture in the South all the cotton
we produce.
Cotton manufacturing has been
very prosperous throughout the
South. A mill at Nswb-rry, s. C.,
will increase its capital from $780,
600 to $4OO,OOU; one at Chester
will double it's capacity, and the peo
o; Augusta, Ga, propose to build a

COTTON rs KING.

Who will deny that cotton is king
Consider for a moment cotton ex-
ports have exceeded in value the
combined exports of wheat, -four and
corn, and you will have a more
definite idea of this. One would
think it should make the South more
prosperous than any other section
of the United States. But Southern
people have bought too much from
the North and West which they
ought to have raised themselves.
Dependence upon one crop is mis-
take. The following from Richard
FL. Edmonds of the Manufacturers
Record is interesting: ssIn eighteen
years cotton has brought into the
South ever $5, 700. .0oO, 900, q sum
20 vast that the profits ont Of it
The western sentinel., 1894-02-01

ought to have been enough to great
ly enrich that whole section. Un-
fortunately, however. the system
which the poverty following the war
developed, of raising cotton only and
buying provisions and grain in thr
West, left at home but little surplus
money out OF the cotton crop. The
West ano North drained that section
of several hundred million dollars
every year, because it depended upon
them for all of it's manufactured
goods, as we'll as for the bulk of it's
foodstuffs. Hence, of the enormous
amount received for cotton, very
little remained in the South. The
increase in diversified farming, the
raising of home supplies, the develop
ment of trucking and the building of
factories are all uniting to keep at
home the money which formerly went
North and West. Whether the cot
ton-raiser himself be getting the full
benefit of this or not, the South at
large is necessarily doing So"
