Handsome New Train. e.

The magnificent train of the tSeaboard
Air Line, known as the "Atlanta Special"
which rune solid from Washington to At
lanta, Ca, and which equipment was
originally built by the Pullman Palace
Car Company, is now undergoing thor
ough overhauling and rebuilding at the
Portsmouth Shops. There is sufficient
equipment for five trains. The first train
was turned out OF the shops to-day and
will leave tonight on No. 403 to go in the
line between Washington and Atlanta.
when another train will be taken off and
run IN the shops. Thus in short while
the entire five trains will be rebuilt, and
one train will be always in the shops being
overhauled, repainted and vanished
hence the equipment will be always fresh
and new. This train, up to the present
time, has been considered one Of the finest
trains that has ever entered the depot at
Atlanta or Washington. The new train,
which comes from the shops is to be by
far the handsomest train ever seen in the
Stste of Virginia. This train, complete, is
composed Of mail. express. baggage,
second-class coach, first. class coach and
two Pullmans. The day coach of this
palace on wheels from outside appearan-
ces is exactly like Pullman sleeper, and
seats seventy.four people. 1t is equipped
with standard Pullman trucks from the
mail car to the last sleeper and vestlbuled
from end to end. The new color is derk
olive green with silver trimmings with
the name of the train in script letters on
the side of each coach. The train Is equip
ped with pintch light gas, having suffi-
cient number Of chandeliers to enable the
passengers to read in any part of the train.
The train is heated by steam and the day
coaches equipped like unto Pullman
sleepers with lavatories and other con-
veniences. This train will be backed
down 10 the Union Station tomorrow,
and it will be grand opportunity for the
patrons of the line and the citizens gener-
ally to see one of the handsomest trains
that has ever gone over the rails of any
railroad. Vice President Mr.. st. John is
doing everything he can to make the Sea-
board Air Line model road in every pos
sible way and be is being ably assisted by
his energetic and hustling General Pas
senger Agent. Mr.. Anderson, i'm looking
after the patrons of the line.- Ji'Yiniom

Here are some facts gathered by an
exchange about cotton that every one
interested in the production of cotton
would do we'll to study: The $780,
600 bale crop Of 1S94-95 sold for s22S,-
100000. The 100000 bales pro-
duced in 1s95-96 sold for 1922, ,OOO,-
900. The crop Of 1861 amounted
to $780, 900 bales, sold for 1927 ,OOO,-
900. Or the big crop Of 1S94-95 sold
for 100000 less than the succeed
ing years crop, although itwas nearly
5000, 600 bales larger. The crop Of
1869 sold for *199, 100000 more
and was over 100000 bales less.
Thus it will appear that the larger the
crop the less it sells for and a 900,
900 bale crop is really worth mere to
producers than 10,0o0: 600 bale crop.
Or the more cotton the less money, a
verifcation Of the well known law Of
inverse proportion. Moral-Plant
more corn, SOW more wheat, raise
more to eat.

Ways and Means to Pay for a War.

WASHINGTON, April 8.--The mem
bers of the ways and means committee
Of the House are busily engaged with
the treasury officials in the work pre-
liminary to drafting war revenue
measure to be introduced in Congress
Immediately upon the opening Of hos
tilities with Spain. An increase in
the internal revenue tax on beer from
81 to So barrel and large increase
in the tax on manufactured tobacco,
including cigars and cigarettes, has
been practically agreed upon. Bank
checks, bills of exchange, drafts,
deeds, mortgages and other papers Of
this class, patent medicines and nos
trums in all probability also will be
added to the list.
A cough estimate of the receipts to
be derived from these sources is that
the increase on these articles alone
will approximate, if not exceed $780,
900: 600 a year.
A bill providing for temporary
loan Of $1O0, 900, 900 and a permanent
loan Of from $300,O00,OOO to $780,
600, 900 at.3 per cent, payable in coin,
has been prepared by the ways and
means committee and will be immedi-
ately introduced in case of war.

COLUMBIA, S. c., April IL, 5p. m.
The Committee on Foreign Reia-
tions cannot agree upon report. The
Democratic members stand for inde-
pendence Of Cuba and armed interven-
tion. There will be no report to-day
from the Committee, which means
that nothing will be done for the pres
ent. There is an understanding. that
the Committees are awaiting to hear
from Gen. Lee.
The Republicans are rallying to the
support Of Mckinley and his policy Of
not recognizing Guban independence.
Gen. Lee will likely be called before
the Committee.
The Madrid dispatches indicate
that quiet prevails there.
The Republican steering Committee
Of the House presents resolutions to
the House Foreign Committee declar-

Every true friend of the South
Carolina Military Academy regrets the
unfortunate affair that occurred in
that institution last week and which
has resulted in the expulsion Of sixty
four of the cadets by the Board OF
Visitors. We are, and have always
been, strong friend of this grand old
institution, and the action Of the
Board may be for its future good. But
perhaps, like the unfortunate cadets,
the members Of the Board have been a
little too extreme. We fully realize
that strict discipline, in military
school especially, is right and proper,
but boys will be boys the world over,
and we believe that all Of them could
have been dealt with in some other
way that would have impressed the
lesson on their minds throughout
their lives. Four Of the expelled ca
diets are from this County; we know
them personally, and all Of them are
high-toned, worthy young gentlemen
from among our best families. We
have no doubt that the other sixty ca
dets are their equals in every respect.
We believe all of them would have
submitted to severe punishment
without murmur. Cadet Cantey
may haze had acted from conscien-
tious motives, but we believe he made
a fatal mistake in reporting his fel-
ow-cadets when he was not on guard
duty. It seems he had done this fre-
quently, and it was natural that ne
would soon be discovered and treated
with contempt by his fellow-cadets.
Even in the common schools through
out our country a tale-bearer among
the pupils is always despised by his
companions. These cadets have not
vet reached mature manhood, and we
sincerely hope that the Board Of Visi-
tors will reconsider its action and re-
instate the sixty-four cadets.
