sentiments of the Russian government, tho

ly warm relations between Russia AMI
France, some of these publications FREE
quently asserted that France and Russia
were at serious odds.
The Philippines.
Count Cassini was asked whether Russia
looked with apprehension upon the Amerf-
gan occupation of the Philippine Islands.
He replied that Russia was naturally deep
ly concerned in any movement affecting tho
ippnes were to some extent a part or an
outpost of the far east, and who was to
control them, If they passed out of the
portarce to Russia. But so far as Russia
herself is concerned, Count Cassini said
that her sphere of activity was confined ia
the far east proper and not to the Philip
pines and other outlying Islands, which
could have only an indirect and remote
influence in the development of the east.
In response to an inquiry as to whether
Russia would likely, alone or with other
powers, look with disfayor upon the con-
troll of the Philippines by the United States,
the ambassador said that he did not ap-
prehend any change in the present good re-
lations between this country and the United
to be quite undesirable that the possession
of the Philippines should pass into the
hands Of England as that would seriously
disturb the equilibrium in the far east.
After the reception of Count Cassinl by
President Mckinley the ambassador will
probably go to Bar Harbor for the sum-
mer.

NEW RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR
Count Cassini Has Arrived as the Representa-
tive of His Government.
He Expresses the Friendly Feelings oi
the Csar Toward the United
States.

The Russian mission at Washington has
been raised from the rank of legation to
that of embassy, and the first ambassador
to be accredited from the empire of the
car to the United States Is Count de Cas-
sini, who arrived in the city Sunday even
ing.
The new ambassador. who is tall, fine

progress of the war; excites more than or
cinary interest, for 1t is known that he
brings a message of ths heartiest good VIII
ON the part of the Russian government, and
one making it quite evident that the long
existing friendship between Russia and the
United States will not be shaken by the
events of the war. Count Cassini Is lin
guist, speaking seven languages, including
Chinese and other oriental tongues, and in
anticipation of his Washington service he
is fast adding English to the list
Friendly Feelings of Russia.
When seen at the Russian embassy to-
day the ambassador expressed his satisfac-
ton at having the opportunity of renewing
at this juncture the cordial sentiments
which have so long existed in Russia
toward the United States. He said he was
authorized to give this sentiment the full
est and most positive expression. The SYM
pathies between the two countries have be-
come traditional, he said, and at no time
was the feeling more hearty than at pres
ent.
when. Count Cassini was asked If the
Russian people and press shared this feel
ing of the Russian government, he answer
ed that the people thoroughly shared in it.
AS to the press, however, he said that its
pow er for good had not been developed in
Russia, and there was no established press,
rejecting the views of the government and
serving as powerful exponent of public
opinion. One Russian newspaper, having a
Jewish editor, has published an article
somewhat unfavorable to the United States,
which the ambassador understood had re-
ceived rather serious attention in this
country, as an evidence that Russia was
not entirely friendly. But this paper, Count
Cassinf said. expressed only the views OF
Its editor. and was without standing with
the government or authority to express it's
views. AS a matter of fact, the publication
was directly contrary to the attitude of
Russia toward the United States. As show
ing how little the Russian press voiced the

A Fine Road Bed.

Presbyterian.
When the Southern Railway Com
pany emerged from great combins-
ton of roads ramifying the south,
we believed and affirmed, that it
would prove boon, not only to this
section, but the whole country, by
its developing power and enterprise.
There is no question about this now.
It is history. The Southern is
tremendous factor in our growth and
progress.
Yet there are probably few who
realize the magnitude of the results
accomplished by it, and the vast
scope of the energy and effort pro,
ducing these results. Wide dissent
nation of facts about the south, lib.
erality of routes to travellers and
shippers, constant improvement OF
car service, securing quick transit
with bodily comfort and the utmost
safety, are but some Of its methods
through which the population OF the
south has been enlarged by emigra-
ton from other sections, the COM
mercial, manufacturing and other
great interests have been fostered
and developed.
We were reminded Of these facts
the other day, when seated in a re-
volving chair in the Southern's par
lor car between Atlanta and Macon,
80 comfortably seated indeed that we
were almost averse to leave the train
for even the famous Indian Spring.
There was no dust. The view from
the window showed beautiful road
way finely ballasted with crushed
stone the train swinging around a
curve at speed Of fifty miles an
hour without a jostle. Almost every
mile between Atlanta and Macon has
been thus ballasted, and it is but
another evidence of the foremost en-
terprise and progress of the South
ern among the great railways OF
America. Fortunate was the south
wher it secured the Southern Rail
way. Its officials are aaame with
the spirit of progress and hesitate at
no expenditure Of means and energy
for the development and prosperity
Of the South.

Synopsis Of Governor Ellerbe's
Speech at eraenville.

He said 'he was asking for a
second term, not because OF custom,
bat on his record. He has served as
Governor for Is months. When de-
feated in 1894 be went to his planta
tion expecting to remain, but when
Evans refused to stand for re-elec-
ton, he was called on to run for
Governor and was honored as few
men in South Carolina have ever
been honored. He had promised to
bs the Governor of the whole people.
He hadn't promised to run the gov
ernment without taxes. He had
urged the people Of the two political
factions to work together. In trying
to be Governor of the whole people,
he had failod to please a great many.
"Remember," he said, II am human
az you are. I have made mistakes,
but I claim I have been honest and
tried to give you clean, honest ad-
ministration. The Governor cannot
enact laws, but I have saved you
some money"
He spoke of the public printing
matter and said bis recommendation
had saved several thousand dollars.

wages the man was entitled to. At
any rate, the testy old gentleman
put himself in the wrong when ne
elected the man with violence OF
both language and action, and the
man was smart enough to know It,
He hunted up a lawyer Immediately
and put the case in his hands, and
then I was called in. The wrathy
old fellow was mad clear through,
and he was going to fight the case
all the way up to the highest court
and back again if necessary. How
ever, he was a personal friend OF
mine, and didn't want to see him
waste his money foolishly, so I ad-
vised him to compromise it.
"'Not if he offers to compromise
for ten cents be asserted, vocifer-
ously. I'll fight this case clear to
the limit; no matter how much it
costs
Il argued with him, but it was
no use. He'd pay me anything l
wanted to fight the case, but he
wouldn't pay the plaintiff a cent. l
suppose would have been justified
under the circumstances in going
ahead and letting him run into lot
of expensive and useless litigation,
but I didn't like to do it just the
same. So I went to see the lawyer
on the other side. He knew he had
a good case, but he also knew that
my client had lots of money and
could make a prolonged and costly
fight. Consequently he was inclined
to be reasonable. He hunted up his
client and talked it over with him,
and the client said he would COM
promise for S25 clear for himself.
His lawyer made reasonable charge
and I closed with them both on the
SPOT and paid them. Then I went
back to my client, told him 1 had
put up such bluff that he never
would hear of the case again, turned
in a I'LL that covered the cost of the
settlement I had effected, and he
paid it without a murmur. He
sometimes speaks to me now OF the
clever work I did in that case, but
he doesn't know, how clever it really
was and what lot of cash it saved
him."

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion CT the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachlan Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be des-
troyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is
