THE TRIBUNE RICYLE IN THE
TROPICS.
During his stay in Mobile Comman-
der c. ii. Davis, OF the United States
cruiser Montgomery, purchased a Tri-
bune Bicycle Of Messrs. Bloch Bros.
for his own use. When the Mont
gomery left here with the Nicaragua
Canal Commission, Capt. Davis took
his wheel with him to GreytOn. In a
private letter from Colon he writes:
You will be pleased to hear that l had
the 'Tribune" ashore this afternoon
and gave the natives Of Colon a treat.
l got quite a good ride, and found the
roads fairly good and hard in most
places. 1t IS the perfection OF me-
chanlsm and finish. 1t has suffered
nothing in this climate, In which to-
baccO will mould In an hour IL ex-
posed to the air and green grass will
grow a quarter OF an inch high in
your boots over night. OF course the
machine has had constant care, but a
cheaper wheel might have suffered by
rust or cracking Of nickle or enamel
In this climate. / suppose all the
high grade wheels are about up TO the
standard in quality and finish, but to
my mind the Cycloidal SprOcket places
the "Tribune" in advance, and If you
are writing to the Tribune people, ]
hope you will express to them my un-
bounded satisfaction with my ma
chine. l don't want to KIN Ow any
thing about other wheels. l am sat
istled with the Tribune, and am sure
there is none better"

With eyes 50 black and hair like jet,
Skin like silk-she's papa's pet,

To say things so unfair.

The Town of Heidelberg.

Heidelberg is in natural location
curious y situated place. The town
is built at the point where the
Neckar River, shortly before it emp
ties into the Rhine, emerges from a
winding defile in the mountains.
The river abuts so close to the noun
tain edge there is scarcely room for
, town, so that the houses have been
stretched out along one principal
street. This is the so-called Haupt.
strasse, or Main street, which is, OF
course, neither wonderful nor beau
tiful. 1t is simply a winding road
way, where one may observe various
phases Of German village life. The
shops are nearly all located here,
where not only the natives trade,
but where are found all those yari-
Gus novelties and souvenirs which
are distinctly of the place, and which
tourists are so addicted to carrying
home with them. The other lead
ing street, and the one most fre-
quented by foreigners, is the So
called Anlage, a broad, earth path
beneath double line of trees. ad-
Joining at one end small park.
This is the aristocratic quarter, where
nearly all the hotels are situated.
In common wittfalF German towns
and cities the soldier ,:life on this
street and:elsewhereiis very much in
evidence. A. regiment, with its
stirring music. goes marching
through the town once or twice a day
to keep alive the martial spirit OF
the people; and to impress them
with the power Of thes Government
1t would. seem that thege. might be
in Germany cne or tMo particularly
pretty, little towns, such as this is,
perhaps excluded from the military
Jurisdiction, where those:" people
might resort who aresnot otfond- OF
the army; The German GoEernment,
however. trusts, so NttIe.il: the, innate
goodness and: reliability OF the in
dividual that s6ch course has.
never commended itself 20 it.

eeSome "First BaIes.''

At Newberry, the first bale Of new
cotton was on Friday bought by 0.
McR. Holmes from W. H. Lane, six
days later than last year, Z cents. It
weighed 523 pounds and was classed
as low middling.
Capt. Il. E. Halsau sold the first
bale new crop cotton for Kerhaw
county at Camden to Henry G. King,
representing Adams & Go. The bale
weighed 4S3 pounds and price paid for
it S cents er pound. Capt. Halsall
had the distinction OF selling the first
bale in Camden last year, on August
81. The price paid then was 6! cents.
Anderson received her first bale of
new cotton Friday last. It was mar
keted by P. B. Allen Of Starts and
bought by Browne, Osborne e. Co. at
9 cents. The bale weighed 1,042
pounds.
st. Matthew's received her first bale
of new cotton Thursday last from Mr..
F. J. D, Fielder, successful farmer of
the Pine Grove section. Itwas bought
by Buyck & Co. for cents.

&c, 900 inhabitants. In the German
army, however, the ratio rises to 6.33
out of every 10000. Austria has
only 1.63 suicides ou5 Of 10000 peo-
pie, while in her army she has twice
the suicide death rate Of any other
European country-l2. 33.
The happy inhabitants OF sunny
Italy seldom commit suicide. Less
than one person in every 10000 ltal-
ians dies in this manner. The army
of Italy has i OF deaths by suicide
out of every 10, 600. .
Spain and Russia, both in their
armies and in their civil life, have
the smallest number of deaths from
suicide, so it is not therefore posi-
BILE to explain these figures by any
comparison between the Latin and
SlayOnic races.

Cold Mine in AbbcVilIc.

The people in the southeastern por-
ton OF Abbeville County are very much
excited on account of the discovery Of
some rich gold finds. Some forty tons
of mining machinery have been re-
ceivel from Pennsylvania and the
mining is to be carried on extensively.
The richest finds have been in Walkers
Branch. Mt the foot of Little Mountain.
This is in the immediate section of the
Dorm mine, which has not been worked
since the war, but before the war more
than million dollars of gold had been
taken from the Dorm mine. Since
then the mine has been forsaken, and
only occasionally have nuggets been
taken from it.
