Delaware Gets q Pr'za

According to The Philadelphia Re
cord Delaware inaugurated governor
last Tuesday who can neither read nor
write.
Joshua Marvil, the new governor, is
a republican. He is business man
of good repute, and is worth about
$15O,OOO which he made by hard work
and shrewd investments. AS he is
unable to read or write he delivered
no inaugural address, the first time
such a thing has happened in the
history of the State. Mr.. Smithers.
his secretary of State, is an educated
man, and it is said that he will prac-
tically be the real governor.
Undoubtedly this is one Of the most
startling sensations in America poll
tics. Delaware is one Of the oldest
States, where public education and
higher education have been popular
fads nearly two centuries. Why did
the republicans pass over numerous
capable and educated men in their
ranks and make Marvil their candidate,
and why did the people elect him {
Is education failure? Is there such
an overproduction Of educated men in
this country that an illiterate man OF
strong individuality and native COM
mon sense is the natural superior OF
his fellows who have become common
herd of incapables under the wither-
ing blight Of a system of culture which
has placed them all on dead level OF
mediocrity?
These are interesting questions, and
while their discussion is not likely to
convince anybody that we can DO
without the rudiments Of an educa-
tion, people will doubtless be strength
ened in the growing conviction that
the avenues to fortune and high posi-
tion are rot necessarily closed to men
who have never mastered a single book.
The governor Of Delaware may some
times find his ignorance Of letters en-
barrassiug and 'humiliating, but his
business judgment and knowledge OF
human nature will probably enable
him to choose good advisers and etl-
cient subordinates, and the chances
are that he will give his State sound
administration.
But what shall we think OF man
who had energy enough to successfully
conduct his business affairs, make a
fortune, and rise to the governorshlp,
and vet never cared to learn the COM
mon arts Of reading and writing =

ment 5000 to 5000.
The salaries of the foundryman and

Two Snake Stories.

There is very long, ravenous snake
at police headquarters, says the At
lanta Constitution. 1t escaped from
a Decatur street dime museum some
weeks ago, and hibernated for the
while in the house Of a Russian Jew,
where it was captured alive by pa
trolman, who had heard the hoarse
screams of the Mortified Hebrew. The
presence of the reptile revived many
marvellous snake stories among the
men at the station house.
"Sceing that snake cat mice,' said
one of the officers, reminds me Of
an experience I had in south Georgia
one spring on fishing excursion.
We were out on long stretch Of wa
ter called Black Lake. 1t was about
the last of May, and the fish had just
commenced to bite good. There were
two of us in the boat, besides negro
man who stayed on the lake and rowed
the people who came there to the best
fishing places. We had pulled up
under an old cypress tree, and were
Jerking in the Dream as fast as they
could bite, when we heard noise
like a rat squeaking in the moss up
over our heads. All Of us looked up,
and before we knew what was happen
ing the dead limbs began to crack and
something fell through the moss and
landed at the end of the boat where
the negro was sitting. We couldn t
tell what it was at first, but that negro
gave war whoop you could hear a
mile, and dived into the water like a
frog. It was fifteen feet deep, and he
came up a long ways from the boat,
still yelling. I got up to see what
was the matter, and found a large
coachwhip or moccasin, [ couldn' t
tell which, wrapped around young
squirrel, which it had torn from its
nest in the moss. The snake was
trying to swallow the young squirrel
alive but killed the snake and saved
IFS victim from a tragic death. The
squirrel lived and I carried it home to
nv children, who raised it up and
tanned it. The last time [ saw the ne
gro he was padding for the shore. .

A. Thomson, who had remained a

A Patent Lawyer.

A lawyer who makes a speciality Of
patent business, no matter just where
his Office is located, was called to the
far West in q case involving a mort
gage on a farm. The preliminary
hearing was before an old-fashioned
justice Of the peace, who had no high
regard for the ways Of men from the
city. At some point in the case, the
magistrate put in a few remarks, and
the visiting lawyer collided with him.
The discussion grew warm, and at last
the magistrate, forgetting his dignity
and his position, became personal.
"Who are you, anyway p he blurt.

"Well, replied the lawyer, "Im ar

"P'raps you are, but I never heare

one are you p

said slowly, "that when the patent
expires, I don't believe you can eve,

Extraordinary Beard GroWths.

Men with enormous growths OF beard
are more numerous than the average
man imagines. One Of the earliest of
the American bearded freaks was Louis
Jasper, who lived in Southern Virginia
at about the time of the close Of the
revolutionary war. His beard was 81
feet long and correspondingly thick
and heavy. He could take his mus
tachc between his fingers and extend
his arms to their full length and still
the ends Of the boards were over foot
beyond his fnger-tips.
In 1880 Philip Hansen, a planter
residing near Corinth, Miss, was be-
lieved to be the posscssor of the long
est beard of any man in the known
world. He is said to have sent the
Washington Anthropological Society
single hairs pluckcd from his chin
which measured 72 inches (six feet) in
length.
In 1882 Adam Kirpin, German,
66 years old, at that time residing in
Chicago, claimed to be the owner of the
longest growth Of whiskers. He was
large man, nearly six feet in height
and had beard more than twice the
length of his body. Kirpin's beard
had been growing steadily for % years
Lcgrand Larow, who lived in Barton
County in our own State of Missouri
at last accounts, has beard the very
sight of which would cause Turkisl
prophet to turn green with envy. MIR
Larow was born in Tompkins County
New York, and came West, settling II
Barton County in 1877.
His beard, which is all Missouri
growth, was over seven feet long yea
ago, and was still growing. On severa
occasions Mr.. Larow has been "writtel
up" as being the owner of the longes

AbbpYille Farmers

GREENWOOD, S. c., Jan. 23.-At
public meeting of the farmers Of this
county, held yesterday at Abbeville,
the following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, we, the farmers of Alb
beville county in convention assem-
bled, fully realizing the financial
depression which is paralyzing all the
industries sof the country, and espe-
oially laying its blighting touch upon
agriculture, the art of all arts, the
science of all science, the life Of all
life, do earnestly appeal for the CO.
operation Of all farmers in the adop-
tion of such measures as may avert
impending bankruptcy and ruin. In
stead of the cheerful song Of content
ment and happiness which should
bless the home of the American farm
er, we find agriculture, the basis Of all
national prosperity, languishing and
dying, while the universal wall Of hard
times and suffering is heard all over
the land. That this anomalous con-
dition Of affairs should exist during
seasons of abundant harvest is evil
dently the result of corrupt financial
legislation in the interest of capital
lists. While we are powerless to rem
edy this evil, save through legislation,
yet it becomes US, as husbandmen and
patriotic citizens, who cherish the
love of home and country, to adopt
such measures in our agricultural pur-
suits as may enable US to meet the
emergency now confronting us. There
fore, be it
1. Resozpcd, That the excessive area
heretofore devoted to the production
of cotton be greatly decreased, and in
stead of making it the principal crop,
increase the acreage of corn, SO as to
make it supply the demands of the
farmers.
2. That farmers devote more atten-
tion to the production Of sorghum,
potatoes, peas, hay and other food
crops.
8. Instead of having our meat hou-
ses in St. Louis and Chicago, let us
erect them upon our own premises, and
fill them with home productions.
4. That tie excessive use Of COM
mercial fertilizers be discontinued,
and when purchased, it be upon the
cotton option basis.
5. That the Railroad Commissioners
take immediate steps to have reduc-
tion on freight for all fertilizers at the
rate Of 40 per cent. on all through
freight, and so per cent. on local
freight.
6. That We encourage the erection
of cotton factories, and all other en-
terprises in our midst, which will en-
ploy labor and utilize the raw pro-
ducts of the land.
Z. We pledge ourselves to carry out
the foregoing resolutions, and call
upon the farmers of South Carolina
to unite in doing likewise.
8. That the press Of the State be
requested to give publicity to these
resolutions.
