Begun at Last.
Work on the completion Of the addi-
ton to the state capitol has begun at
last. The work should have begun
months ago, and it was expected when
the work was suspended last fall that
the month of April this year would
see it renewed, and that bricks, under
the practiced hands of experienced
workmen, would have grown into the
definite shapes and outlines of the new
structure ere this. But several circum-
stances have combined to a delay of the
work until this late date. It has not
been a favorable year for the disposal
of bonds, and the remaining $4,000 of
capitol addition bonds were not nego-
tiated until a few weeks ago. After this
had been done, there yet remained sew
eral incidents of contract to be looked
after, and the arrangement with Sheckler
of st. Paul, was just about perfected
when the temporary surcease of traffic
from the east prevented the beginning of
work, it being impossible for the foreman
of the work of completion to get here
until traffic should be resumed.
On Friday, however, Foreman Dodge
arrived from st. Paul, with several as
~slstants, and in the afternoon, prepara-
tions for active work we're begun in
earnest. At the grounds, mortar beds
were made, and everything palaced in
such shape that the work might 60 for
ward without any delay. Nine or ten
teams were starte upon the hauling of
sand from the sand pits, and this work
is progressing to-day. Several convicts
are employed IN the work at the sand
pits, and a number more are busily en-
gagged at the brick yards. At the CAPT.
tol, there are zone at work, as the en-
tire number at the penitentiary are now
occupied at other places, and cannot be
spared.
There are now ready for use, about
400,00 O brick, from the state yards. One
kiln of these was completed last fall aud
they we're hauled to the capitol early this
spring. Another kiln was burned this
spring, and still another is in course of
preparation, so that there is no danger
of a lack of building material. Several
bricklayers have been brought from st.
Paul, and all who can be secured will
be employed from this neighborhood.
1t is purpose of the contractors to hire
labor here, and as much material as can
be secured in the city will be purchased
here also.
The capitol commissioners hope to see
the addition very nearly completed by
November LIST. It will be rushed as
rapidly as possible, and all possible
efforts made to hasten it's completion.

The Drouth Broken.

(. 1t rained Tuesday and thereby ended
the three weeks of hot and dry weather,
which has been the longest period Of
time without rain in the history Of the
local weather bureau. In the city, the
rainfall was slight, only enough to lay
the dust, and afford a slight basis Of
truth for the statement that it had
rained. Outside the city, the fall was
somewhat heavier, and east of here, re-
ports are of a pretty heavy shower,
which will be beneficial alike to animal
and vegetable life. The drouth has been
so long, and the heat so intense and per-
%sistent, that vegetation of all kinds has
suffered greatly. Even trees display
evidences of the lack of moisture and of
the intense warmth, and in many places
adjacent to. the city, grass has become
dried and harsh, and the growth Of the
hay crop seriously retarded. Wheat
and oats have also suffered considerably
and although preparations for harvest
ing + now being begun, the crops Of
these two grains will be light, except
in certain favored localities.
Corn and potatoes have Jared better,
but good soaking rains are necessary to
insure q good crop of these products.
Reports from the western part Of the
state say the grain there has suffered,
but not 8 % materially as IN other locali-
ties. S. ]. Seal, the implement agent,
who returned from a trip west last night,
reports crops looking very fair out west,

that there Is still some moisture in the
atmosphere. What of rain has fallen
has been greedily absorbed by all kinds
of vegetation, but there has not yet been
sufficient to be Of benefit.

What Can Do Done.

The Lewis brothers Of Talladega
county have 5000 acres of land, all
beautifully terraced, and, what will
sound strange to black belt farmer,
there is not negro on it. They have
eighty -four people employed. every
one white, and they are farming on o
scale that is bound to be successful.
They have cotton seed oil mill on
their farm and extract the oil from
all their seed, thus making a good
profit. They use the bulls for fatten-
ing and wintering their cattle and re.
turn the meal to soil, thus enriching
the land.
They are just about completing
$500 spindle yarn mill, and will con-
vert every pound of cotton they raise
into yarns. by this means they save
the expense of packing and marketing
cotton and get the profit Of the middle
mon. They save the enormous freights
on cotton to the mills of New England
aud ha We market for their yarns iu

BOGUS SILVER DOLLARS.
They Are Better Than the Original In
Metallic Value.

A peculiar and startling system OF
counterfeiting is being unearthed in
this city. A new counterfeit silver
dollar was recently discovered by a
leading divine Of this city, and there is
perhaps large number of coins of
the kind in circulation. The spurious
coin is trife heavier than the gen.
time, and is handsomer looking
piece.
The materials used are of the very
best, and it's ring is just triAe
richer than Uncle Sans SIC. PUNK.
The wonderful cheapness of silver
now renders it possible for the coun-
terfeiter to give the public better
money than the Government is will
ling to do, hence the ease with which
the manufacturers of the queer can
impose upon the public is very much
enhanced by the financial situation.
President Nixon of the Fifth Ma
tional Bank said, when questioned
about the new counterfeit:
"Oh, yes; there have been num-
Der of counterfeits made out of very
fine material. You see, as the mat
ter now stands, you can make / 200
silver dollars for about $3.50. In Lon
don the American dollar is at present
worth about SO IA cents. To make
a silver dollar worth a dollar at the
present prices in would be necessary
to make a coin twice as large as those
i'll use. The standard dollar contains
A | 1,A III
trade dollar, which has been called
in, contained 420 grains.
''It is nearly impossible to get any
one in England or any portion of Eu-
rope to take American silver in trade
and in the event that they did take
it, you would be obliged to pay 81 in
silver for an article you could buy for
81 in gold. For example, coat that
would cost you $15 in gold at a Lon
don tailor's would cost you $50 if you
offered silver in payment. 1t is ex-
tremely doubtful if you could get a
London tailor to take the silver at all ,
and it is extremely probable that a
man with pocket full of American
silver would starve to death in Eu-
rope before he could get restaurant
keeper to give him sandwich for
such cash.
'We have not received any of the
new counterfeits to my knowledge,
but | heard some weeks ago of Il new
counterfeiter' place Of business hav-
ing been raided in Eastern Kentucky.
There was place until recently in
full blast somewhere in the bottom
part of this city, but they made a
very poor coin and were soon routed
by the secret service people.
II don't doubt that the new mint
will be run to earth by Uncle Sam S
minions before it has gone very far
''The public should be very CRATE
full to the Secret Service people for
the efficient work they have done DUR
ing the past twenty years in purifying
our currency. l can remember the
time when there was scarcely man
who was not dead broke who did not
have one or two pieces of bad money.
Now you rarely ever hear of piece
of bad money. Few people ever take
the trouble to examine their change,
further than to see that it is the cor
rect amount"
A number of other banks were seen,
but none of them has thus far received
any specimens of the new counterfeit.
