There is a perfect flood of fresh paint on
the South Highlands. The rainbow has
been robbed OF its colors. The Highlands
present the appearance of an architectural
aurora borealis. Each nabob seems de-
termned to outrival his neighbor in pro-
ducing startling effects. number of la
dies have been thrown from their bicycles
on account of these startling effects. The
steel steeds shy when they come in sight of
these vivid contrasts. Perhaps the nabob-
esses have something to do with these
gaudy colors. They seem inclined to display
colors on their homes well on their
dress. A house has certain individuality
that should be preserved. To change it
from an olive green to light yellow is to
change its individuality. 1t is as if bru-
nette should leave off her rich warm colors
for the pale blue colors of the blonde.

BAGGING AND TIE TRUST AGAIN.
Southern Planters TO Be Victims of Anoth-
er Combine This Year.

Southern Planters TO Be Victims of AnOth-
er Combine This Year.
The southern cotton planters seem
destined to be ma le the victims of an
other combine this year. It is the cot
ton tie and bagging manufacturers
again. Ties have jumped from 65 cents
per bundle, last years price, to $1.223
cents per bundle, and bagging has gone
up half a cent yard.
The Augusta Herald tells about how
the combine has been getting in it's
work as follows:
''For several months past dealers in
Augusta have been trying to obtain from
manufacturers an idea of just what the
price of ties would be this season. Some
had c nsiderable stock left over from
last year, which they could sell at once
did they know the price. Others were
besieged by their country patrons for
news on the subject, so that they might
know just what preparations to make.
But all the tie manufacturers are
in combine and they ref used to divulge
their selling price for this season. The
announcement was made today, howev-
er, and it has created CONSERVATION al
ready.
Last year ties were sold to dealers at
IS cents per bundle; this year the trust
says the price is $1.228 in 1000 bundle
lots and $1.273 for smaller quantities.
How is that for high?
The trust also held their quotations
until it was too late for dealers to nego-
late for imported ties.
1t is fact also that within the past
month the price of bagging has gone up
cent yard. Bagging is now quoted
at 55-8 in lots of 1000 rolls or more, and
1 higher in smaller quantities. There
are only six bagging manufactures in
this country, but all are in a trust con
trolled by the concerns at St. Louis, New
York and Charleston. Dealers here fear
that there will be another rise in the
price of bagging.
Gold men in the city are very s)re
about this jump in prices. They say it
will create general dissatisfaction among
the turner's, and will turn tn Jusands of
votes to Bryan that would otherwise
have gone to the cause of sound money!

This is signal for 'Mutiny on Board"
When the Fuller was boarded it was
learned that murder had been added to
mutny, and that Captain Nash and his
wife, Laura, and second officer, Banber-
ry, had been killed in their hunks while
asleep. The murders had been commit
ted with an axe.
The room in which the victims lay
had been covered with blood, showing
that a severe struggle had taken place,
and the bodies were horribly mutt
lated.
The cook, Jonathan Sheere, of Rosa
rio, suspected the mate, Thomas Brown,
and succeeded in placing Brown in irons,
and he afterwards ironed the man who
was at the wheel al the time the murder
was committed.
Upon the arrival of the vessel all on
board, including Frank Mauch of Boston,
who who was a passenger, were placed
under arrest. The United States consul
here telegraphed to Washington for in
structions 1t appears that the murder
was committed at 2 o'clock OH the morn

wife were in their respective sleeping
apartments and Banberry was in his,
which was separated from those of Capt.
Nash and his wife by room occupied by
Mauch.

When all was quiet on board and those
below were sleeping, the murderer or
murderess crawled aft to the cabin, de-
seended and with an axe chopped their

The affair. became known. not long
afterwards. Then the cook, negro who
shipped at Rosario, became suspicious of
the mate, Thomas Brown, of NoYia Sco-
tia, but a naturalized American, and
Brown was placed in irons. The man at
the wheel when the murder was commit
ted was also put in irons, and the ship then
headed for Halifax.
The bodies of the victims we're all
