Mrs. S. Goldsmith, aged years, The
death of this lovely child casts cloud

she was the light, and brings grief,
to q large circle of friends and rels-
tlves. Indeed to all who ever saw her

row. The distress of her parents can
not be measued In words, and no ex-
presslons Of sympathy can soften the

Perhaps the only comfort possible is
the knowledge that their friends

whelming sorrow finds an echo in
many hearts. The funeral took place
on Tuesday afternoon, aud great
concourse of friends assembled to offer
the last sad tribute to the beautiful
child who had been 80 well loved.
The many frienus OF MI. anu Mrs'
E. Frankel, of Leota, sympathize
deeply with them in the loss OF their
little child, which occurred on the

of the parents at Leots. The funeral

Mr.. and Mrs. Frankel have many warn

sympathy is felt for them IN their dis
tressiug aflliction, In which the TIhE'

GKEENvIILE, Jan. 20, 1896.
Liverpool market closes to-day at
practically the same figures as last
Saturday. Spots and futures on this
side are at exactly the same prices as
on that date, aud transactions still
continue on limited scale for future
delivery, although the demand for
spot cotton in Liverpool continues
good, the spinners tskings to-day
amounting to 1900 bales, at l-32d.
over yesterdays prices. The semi.
weekly movement published to-day
shows receipts at interior towns 10 be
22,S61 bales, against 1886 last year
and S0,596 in 1898. Shipments are
S7,057 bales, against 57,494 last year
aud 26.003 in 1898.
The estimated port receipts for the
week are 100000 bales, against 1s4,254
for the corresponding week last year
The total amount to be brought into
sight this week is estimated at 110, ,00C
bales, as compared with 2l6,6l3 las,
year.
II is noteworthy fact that the ar.
rivals at the ports are being drawn
from Interior towns instead Of from
plantation reserves. Our telegraphic
reports yesterday showed decrease
of IL 900 bales IN five of the principa
interior towns. As we have stated
before, we believe that the plantation
reserves are much less than the beal
spectators figure on, and sooner Of
later this fact will become appsren
aud result in decided improvement
In prices.

NO LOG TAX GOES.

Jackson, Miss, jan. 2S.-The Missi-
ssippi Legislature spent considerable
time today in discussing bill intro
duced by Mr.. Sharkey, of Kinds, 10
tax dogs. The debate was one Of the
warmest aud most interesting of the
session, but the country members car
ried The day Oh vote to indefinitely
postpone.
Mr.. sharkey contended that The 10.
tax paying negroes OF the State owned
200, 900 dogs, oil mongrel and sheep
killers, and that good hog could be
made to succeed each dog If the bill
to tax them should pass; but to the
pigeon-hole 1t went, as has similar
bill at every session of the Legislature
ever held In the State.

On Tuesday aftern BON james Foster
reported ali astonishing occurrence 10
the authorities, which investigation
confirmed. A box was found on the
gate post Of the colored cemetery con-
tanning the body Of new. born negro
infant, and upon the box were
marked the names of the father, Har-
rison Miller, the mother, Lucinda
Miller, aud the woman who assisted at
the birth of the child. 1t appears
that the parents simply considered
this the cheapest and least trouble
soma way of disposing of the remains
of their child, aud the mau in charge
of the cemetery states that this Is not
the first time chlld's body has sim.
ply been left in the cemeterp without

MACEO IN HAYANA.
A Revenue Collector Says He Met
Rebel General in the Heart of the
Citv

New York. June 24-The World this
morning says: William Ryan, collec-
tor Of internal revenue for the eastern
district of Virginia, who was released
from quarantine yesterday, said that
in Havana he had a personal interview
with General Antonio Maceo, the com
mander-in-chief of the insurgent for
ces stationed in Pinar del Rio province.
According to Mr. Ryan, General Ma
Geo was in the very heart of Havana
city last Monday, and more than that,
had his picture taken and handed
copy of the same to Mr. Ryan so he
might show it to the president and to
General Lee. AIaceo came to Havana
and then a friend conducted Mr.. Ryan
to the place of meeting Nfaeeo was in
disguise He was dressed like a poor
peasant. He was in perfect health,
and hopeful of the success for the
Cuban arms.
Yes, L saw General Maceo," said
Mr. Ryan. Il had a long talk with
him. I told General Lee all about it
and he knows what ATaceo told me"
Mr.. Ryan was asked whether he
asked General NIaeeo if he was in IA
vor of the annexation of Cuba.
I did mention this to him. said Mr..
Ryan. Ills reply was. 1 am a sol
der; I am here to make war I am go
ing to continue to fight Spain until
Cuba shall be free. L know nothing
about diplomatic relations"
During the interview General Ma
Geo was surrounded by three of his
commanders who had accompanied
him to Havana.
Il think he came to Havana to see
some of the leaders of the revolution
airy party" said Mr.. Ryan He was
awaiting news from the United States.
1 He said he hoped the United States
/ would recognize the Cubans as bel
/ ligerents."
Our only hope lies in the action that
may be taken by your country" is
what General Maceo told Mr.. Ryan.
Another important feature of Mr.
Ryans trip is that he personally visit
ed the trocha. unknown to General
Weyler, and he intimates that General
Lee, too, has seen the trocha.

wichita, June 24-"Under no cir

When Colonel Taylor and Rufe Gone,

shown the dispatch they denounced

what the Populists in this county want
We are for union of all the silver
forces of the country, and viii adopt
all honorable means to bring about
such "a result.
sThe Populists in this state know
that PETER has never been able to get
entirely away from the Republican
party. He is prOtectiOnlst OF the
most radical type, and when he voted
for the river and harbOr bill Jerry
Simpson expressed his opinion OF PEI
fer in words that would not do to print
The POpulists, however, admit that
PETER has been out Of the state So
much since his election to the senate
that he does not know anything about
the party 1t has grown away from MIN
