WILL HARMED STAR WITH SOTH-
ERN?

Theatrical gossips are wondering
who will be 2. H. Sothern's leading
woman next season. when he leaves the
MANAGEMENT of Daniel F'rohman and
takes charge of his own affairs. Grace
Kimbau. his present leading woman,
is under contract to Mr.. FrChman for
next season. but that Of course does not
mean that she Will be with Mr.. SOth-
ern. IL is we'll known that Mr.. Sothern
and his ex-leading woman, Virginia
Harmed. are very devoted to each other.
She was the first. and, in fact, the only
one to meet him at the dock when his
shin came in from Europe last July.
Maybe it has occurred to Mr.. Sothern
that Mr.. and Mrs. SoJhern would read
as well rs Mr.. and Mrs. Kendall on the
bill-bOards.

Hard Times Come Again no More.

There is not half the terror in five
cents cotton that most persons imagine.
In Montanait it is $40 horses. In Him
ois it is so cents wheat. It may be
so cents corn, but it is because they
have none. South Carolina, is today
better off than any other State in the
Union, even if our staple crop is sell
ing at half price. We are freer from
debt, we have more Of the necessaries
Of life at home, and we know nothing
Of the thousand and one vicissitudes
which beset our neighbors.
For $3.50 man in Spartanburg can
buy barrel Of -four, which is SOL
dier's rations for six months and six
days. It takes less cotton to buy it
than it did in the good old times you
talk about so much.
Away with the idea that this coun-
try is going to the bad The farmer
reads the papers and he sees day after
day about hard times. He hears moth
ing among his neighbors but "5-cent
cotton" He comes to town, sells his
cotton and puts his money in his
pocket. He is afraid to buy even the
things he actually needs, for he ina
gines that when these few dollars are
gone he will never have any more.
The result has been that enterprises
are crippled. Men Of means are afraid
to lend their money; they are afraid
to invest it; they are simply holding
it.. Go to any town in South Carolina
and talk with the money lenders.
They will tell you there is no demand
for money. Look for the men who
have made colossal fortunes in the
past by the lien business, and you
will find them seeking other avenues.
Go to the home of the farmer and you
will find larger proportion than ever
before can produce the ready cash to
pay for what they buy. All this
means that the hard times we hear so
much discussed exist chiefly in our
minds.-Spartanburg Herald.

Physical Eff"ct Of Fear.

A man connected with a travelling
menagerie was sleeping on some blan-
kets on the door of a tent, when some
thing crawling over his breast aroused
him. Springipg up he threw off the
creature, which proved to be huge
raittlesnake. AS he struck it he felt
the prick Of it's fangs in his arm, and,
with howl of pain and terror, boun-
ded from the tent and shouted for help,
whisky, doctor or some medicine.
There chanced to be nothing available
within reach, and his fellows stood
around with scared faces waiting for
him to die, which be appeared likely
to do in q very short time. The arm
began to swell and the poor victim
was soon gaspiug for breath and
groaning with almost intolerable pain.
At last, just as the breath seemed
about to leave his body, some one
among the wagons shouted that one Of
the pet snakes had escaped. 1t was
an enormous rattler, but harmless, as
the fangs had been removed. The
reptile was found dead under one side
Of the tent, where the man had flung
it. The bite proved to be the prick
of sharp tack in the canvas of the
tent. In an hour the man was as we'll
as ever save for weakness caused by
the nervous excitement.
1t was the opinion of all who wit
messed the incident that but for the
timely disabuse of the man mind he
would have been dead within a few
minutes, the victim Of nervous dread
and terror.-Ne,0 York Ledger.

Wouldn't Find Any.

A few weeks ago, jockey, native
of Erin's Isle, was called as witness
in a trial, and the opposing counsel
was doing all he could to invalidate
his testimony.
"What are you?'' he began, in a
bullying tone.
"Sure, I'm jockey, same as my
father was before me, was the re-
ply.
"Ah!" said the lawyer, thrusting
his hands into his pockets, and pre-
pairing to enjoy himself hugely with
this witness, 'and I suppose your
father did little cheating in his time,
like the rest of the fraternity?'
"Troth, and I s'pose he did, now
and thin" was the reply.
"And where do you suppose he is
now?'
I'm heaven, I hope-rest his sowl!'
"And what should such fellows as
Jockeys do there, I should like to
know?' inquired the lawyer, in voice
of thunder.
Paddy scratched his head. Then,
with a sly grin, he replied:
"Train hosses for the angels, per-
haps.'
"And cheat them as they did their
fellow mortals?'
"Maybe so,'' replied the jockey,
still unabashed.
"Ah! they would be prosecuted
then!' exclaimed the lawyer, trium-
| phantly. :,
"Sorra a bit," answered the wit
ness.
"And why?"
because they might search heaven
over and over again, and divil law
yer would they find there!'
A shout Of laughter hailed this
retort, which the court could not sup
press.
"You can step down, fellow" said
the lawyer, growing as red as a peony;
and it was noticed that during the re-
msAder Of the case that his cross
examination was scarcely 80 keen as
usual.

been moving down from the hills about
Atlanta. Every rain that has fallen
for thousand years has been beating
it and tumbling it to get it clean and
collected in low places. Down, down,
down, till at the bottom it has been
left to rest by the elements, buried,
as it were, grain by grain. How long
some Of this sand has slept in these
places no one can say, butit was little
thought, I think, that it would find
it's way back to the hilltops from where
it was driven, but so lit is-made clean
and white by the buffets Of nature, its
sparkle has caught the eye of the sand
hauler and it is lifted from it's low
place in the valley and carrird back
again. Time and again this sand may
90 down and be returned. Now a
thing Of beauty on frescoed wall, now
winding walk in fowery beds, but
at last and all the time, its sweetest
rest is found in lowest places.
Perhaps we poor people who grum-
BILE so much are not so much worse of
than the millionaires. Itmay be that
the sweetest rest is in the lowest
places. Anyhow, I feel sure that
conditions are very changeable. I
could go back through my life and
count family after family whose for
tunes have changed-prestiges lost
and prestiges gained. Here genera
ton of "high-Ayers," there poverty
stricken set. The poor Of one genera
tion are the rich of the next. This
seems to be the natural thing since I
begun to study about it. Wealth
begets extravaganza and often arro-
gance. Poor folks, from necessity,
must study and practice economy, and
to the humble, the industrious and
economical, there must gather wealth.
Browns grandchildren may laugh at
the Vanderbilts for their poverty
~tricken condition some day. So,
with all the hard times, it may be for
the best, and, with all our discomfort,
it may be the nearest road to pros
perity and cheerfulness- hope so.
But there is no use in talking about
the world ever being satisfied. If our
own conditions are such, if We are
doing the very best we can and salts
fed with it, there will be some one
else whose condition makes us anxious.
I find this to be sort Of "craze" of
the times. Each one Of US have our
standard of life and We are very anx-
ious for other folks to adopt our
standard-we are troubled if they do
not. Sometimes, it may be, that this
we'll meant anxiety is turned to agood
purpose, but sometimes it carries dis
content where it was never known
before.
The snow and blizzard Of last week
was mighty trying to great many
people. Many there were who had an
excuse to grumble at their fates, and
had it not been for the goodness OF
heart of those who have been blessed
with wealth there would have been
widespread distress. Atlanta and
around Atlanta is well blessed with
good people who are ready to help the
needy in such times, and we all should
thank the Lord for it, but there are
thousands that should not be in the
Door condition that calls for this
charity. Ablebodied men feel the
sting and curse the times. Work and
good wages would please these much
better, but they would be ingrates to
grumble at such acts of charity as save
them from dire distress.

To Make Good Bacon.

Having frequently been asked how
to cure good, sweet bacon, and the
time being now close at hand to begin
this nice, particular work, I herewith
give my own plan which 1 have prac-
ticed for 40 years or more with sue
cess.
In the first place, to make good
bacon, hogs must be fat, and the
younger they are the better the bacon
for whites to eat, if they have suHi-
cient size. I should prefer not to
have any hogs for bacon over one
year old. They should at that age be
easily made to weigh $50 to 25O pounds
each.
After being nicely butchered and
cleaned, and cold enough to cut out
smoothly, cut up as desired. Hams
and shoulders I prefer to have closely
cut; that is, leave as much to the
sides as possible. Hams especially
should be closely trimmed. Salt we'll
and pack on platform built for the
purpose, with slope sufficient to pass
the drippings or brine from the meat
use about teaspoonful Of saltpetre
on each joint and pack closely on the
platform. After having lain in salt
not more than eight days-if the
weather is favorable, and not too cold,
five or six days is better-take it up
and re-salt as at first, except don't use
any more saltpetre, and repack as be-
fore.
Here is where a good many fail in
making good bacon, by not re-salting
and at the proper time. The salt be-
tween the meat at the thick parts will
readily dissolve and the pieces will
come together, and If allowed to re-
main so, will more or less sour, and
the meat is never good and sweet
afterwards. By re-salting as above
described this is avoided and the meat
is kept sweet and palatable.
After having lain in the salt four or
five weeks the meat should he taken
up and washed clean and we'll wiped,
and if it is desired to keep sweet and
perfect, put it in sacks made for the
purpose, of ordinary cotton goods,
tying the mouth Of the sack: firmly
with a good, strong string, which
should be used for hanging it up.
Have large kettle with ashes and
water heated to about boiling point,
sufficient to immerse each piece, hold
ing it firmly by the string with which
it is tied.
This immersion is to destroy any
eggs of insects that may have been
deposited upon it, and also fills the
openings in the cloth with ashes so as
to prevent any further depreciation
upon it by flies or other insects.
After this the meat should be hung
up to dry with plenty Of fresh air. l
prefer hams and shoulders hung with
the hooks down. The drippings will
thus be absorbed by the hooks. A
sweet, JUICY hook is good enough for
the most fastidious.
If your house is close one, bore
auger holes in the gable ends of roof
so as to admit plenty of air. =
I knew a gentleman, a railroad
president, who hung his meat high up
in a warehouse in the town where he
lived to dry, and it kept perfectly
without any further care or attention.
Meat prepared as above will keep
sweet and perfect indefinitely and will
not become rancid, not even on the
outside, fatty parts. I have hams put
up as above last winter that are per-
fect.-F1om Advance Sheets Of the

\ Day With the Pope.

The April number of the French
Magazine, La NOlU{e NOdcr7le, con-
tains an article by NJ. Boyer D'Agen
on GA Day With the Pope" in
which the writer describes i'm an in
tercSting manner the apartments of
His Holiness and how he passes his
time.
The Pope is now considerably over
80 years of age, but is i'm remarkably
good mental and physical health
His day begins, as rule, at O'Clock
in the morning. AS soon as no rises
he is clothed by his valet in Il sOutaue
of white wool and around his neck
Is placed the peCtOral cross Of gold
His body is so trail that it seems to
sustain with hardship the long
golden chain, light as is its weight
In" Pope also wears white waddcd
gown, and the prayers before mass
are rccited by him as he kncClS upon
prize diCu i'm his bedchamber. lie
then goes to an adjoining room,
where there is an altar, and is there
attired in the sacerdotal vestmcnts
by two CcClesiastics in waiting
Mgr. CaginO do AZev0dO and Mgr.
'''''''''i t'li'N NV L OIIt III Il lDN voice
begins tho celebration Of his daily
mass.
II is rare that strangers are adj
miti"d to this mass, for the PERFORM
ance of which three-quarterS of an
hour is required, and at the end the
Pope hears another mass said by a
prclatc of the household.
About 9 O'Clock the Pope goes to
another room, where ne partakeS of
soup and little chocolate. If he is
to receive pilgrims he goes to his IL
brary and there they are admitted to
him, and he dcvOtcs some minutes
to each, asking his name, his coun-
try and about his family. He takes
a special interest in Americans.
AS the visitors depart the Pope
bestows upon them his blessing and
he goes to his working-chamber
where he is employed for some time
and until Cardinal Rampolla, the
Secretary of State, is announced.
With him some time is spent and so
the morning passes.
The Pope is required by etiquette
to dine alone. In the afternoon,
when the weather is fine, he takes
exercise in the gardens. At night
he reads until he is ready for sleep,
when he first rcciteS the rosary, in
company with an assistant prelate,
and then goes to his bedchamber
lie sleeps the light sleep Of an old
man, his valet resting within call
The Pope's day is an extremely
busy one, having so many persons
to see and so many affairs to look af-
ter, but ne has remarkable vitality,
and, according to his doctor, may be
expected i'm the natural order of
things to live for years yet. The
tenure upon life, however, of man
so fragile in body and so old is I'M
certain that any serious illness
might cause his collapse in few
hours, the more particularly as he
is subject TO fainting spells. His
eyes and hearing are perfect but
his hand shakes much from a kind
of palsy.
