C~oncordian: about one Of the smooth
est thieves we have heard of for some
time e into Kroencke's store, last
Friday night, selected a pair OF shoes and
a pair Of gloves for himself and put them
on; then he selected a pair OF ladies shoes
which he had wrapped up and laid on the
counter. He then handed the clerk a
written list Of several articles in the gro
Gerry line, and excused himself to go out
the back way. 1t occurred to the clerk
after he had been wrapping up groceries
for some minutes, that his customer had
been absent quite a while, and his sus-
picions led him to investigate long
enough to learn that his customer had
gone off with the shoes and gloves, valued
at about $3.50; and it is not likely that he
forgot to pay, either. Diligent search
that night, and since, failed to find him,
and he has probably been practicing his
art elsewhere since"

selected to attend the grand lodge of the

held in this city, last night. The object
OF the meeting was to discuss a method
for reducing the delegate representation
at the grand lodge. Last year there were
present over 600 delegates, and the body
was found to be entirely ~unmanageable.
When a subject came up for discussion
there would be perhaps eighty men on
the floor at once, making it utterly i'm
possible for the grand master workman
to give proper individual recognition.
The expenses Of the grand lodge have
reached large proportions each year, as
? mileage and a per diem salary is allowed

over sl2,OOO. At the meeting, last night
the following proposition was made by
Mr.. {. q. Ludwigs, of Lexington, which
q prevailed: Resolved, That the delegates
here assembled recommend the reducing
of delegates TO the grand lodge to a max
!, imum attendance of one hundred and the
minimum OF fifty. There shall be one
from each judicial district, and the city Of

18Th. It will be remembered thai
he is State Senator from St.

had had . conversation with Mr..

tleman he did not think it was

The best remedy for the cotton
boil worm consists in planting rows
Of corn throughout the cotton field
SO that the eggs Of the boil worm
will be laidsupon the corn rather
than the cotton. Put about every
tenth row in corn in pIice Of COT
ton and cultivate at the same time
~ the cotton. Two or three plant
ings u corn will be better than
QUO. % that the corn will form .

LICENSING SAW MILLS.

In a recent decision the SUI
preme Court declared that saw
mills were net required to pay any
license to the State, since there Is no
enumeration in the license act pro-
viding for the payment by those
establishments of . license
In order to correct this error
Representative Harris has given
notice of . bill amending the IL
cense act 90 IS to include saw
mills, which, If the amendment is
adopted, will subject them to pay
license based upon the amount
OF business they do. The saw
mill industry in the State is . very
large one aud the proposed amend
ment is therefore Of considerable
interest to lumbermen.
