Wednesday was the beginI ng
of Lent-a day of particular 'te
in Greenville, in which the Catao-
lie and Episcopal element is stroas,
and the season OF penitence mar IS
an almost complete cessation ot
social gayety. The day was cole
brated with solemn and approp.i-
ate services at both churcts,
which were attended by large con-
QregAtions. Throughout Lent
daily services will be celebrated
except Saturday, with frequent
celebrations of mass and tle
Eucharist, which will be announc-
ed from the chancels of the chcr-
'ctcs eNch SGnKtay.

The Cemetery.

The Cemetery Association viii
meet on Tuesday, March LIST, at
HOO o'clock, at the residence OF
Mrs. n. r. Valiant. As this is the
first meeting of the season all
members are requested to attend,
Mrs. NJ. r. VALIANT, Pres,
Mrs. WALLACE ARNOLD Sec'y,
The above notice is one in which
all the community is intereste !.
If the ASSOCIATION did not exist Il c
cemetery would soon fall into Z
condition Of dIsreputable negie 3,
and, instead Ct being a credit i. d
source of pride to the city Won d
be a reproach and humiliation. t
is the faithful and unostentaticlS
work of few ladies', and the
whole city must acknowledge Its
indebtedness to them for their ef-
forts. When the association took
charge of the work the cemetery
was scarcely more than bare Gu
closure, with a plot here and tn lie
redeemed from weeds and dist
guished by attempts at ornaments
ton which only enhanced the con-
trast of the surrounding dilapida-
ton. The ladies have organized
an association, and, by the collce-
ton of tritling dues and their oan
personal supervision and manual
work, have made the cemetery q
burial ground Of which even IS
large and progressive commual-
ty as this need not be ashamed,
and have psid the salary Of ke9p-
or both winter and summer. The
annual spring work is heavy, and
the force at command inadequate.

A NEW PROCESS.

AS we are so utterly dependent up
on sugar for our prosperity, it is very
necessary that every movement in the
econOmizing of the cost OF sugar pro-
duction should be closely watched. The
inventive minds OF the Germans, and
now of our own countrymen, are ex-
ploring in every direction for cheaper
methods of production. Many economic
methods have been tried and have
failed. Valuable inventions are not
frequent But the world is young and
new inventors are born every day.
The Louisiana Planter, referring to
the new process for purifying cane
juice says:
In order to make experiments on a
large scale with the eIectrolytic pro-
cess of Say-Gramme for the purifica
ton OF the juices, in the German sugar
factory at TiesdOrf, a station will be
established which will work with the
new process, the object OF the owners
OF the process being to fully demon
strate the use and feasibility of the
new invention, which, in case Of sue
cess, would be destined 10 revolution
ize the entire manufacture of sugar.
That it has been successfully applied
in a cane sugar factory, l wrote you
already Further developments are
expected with great interest"
1t is, of course, possible to ''revolu-
tionize the entire manufacture of
sugar" But such revolutions are not
frequent. AS Prince Kraptokin says:
habit in the management of indus
tries is gradually giving way to the
systematic use of brains"
So far, the Hawaiian planters show
an uncommon aptitude in the use of
brains. The Yankees and the Germans
are his rivals. 1t is the industrial tug
of-war. So far the planters have more
than held their own, with Uncle Sam
behind them. Uncle Sam, however,
cannot make deep soil, nor can he
control climate.
Even if this new process does rev
olutiOnize" the industry, there is no
reason why our own planters should |
not share in the revolution.

ton seriously tell the Commissioners,
in their memorial that in conducting
the plantations "laborer5 must be OBJ
tanned beyond the borders of Hawaii,
or the development Of the country viii
be checked and existing industries
hampered if not extinguished. =" they
present a very powerful bear argu-
ment And it is most decidedly pessi-
mistic when the planters make the I'M
usual and unprecedented request that
Congress viii suspend the immigra-
ton laws Of the United States, in their
behalf, for a period of time. It will
be, indeed, a piece OF rare good for
tune if it is done. The memorial Of
the planters shows the supreme i'm
pOrtance Of the labor question. Ii deep
ly affects the dividend paying capac-
ity of the plantations. The memorial
is not presented by bulls or bears.
While it is a bear argument against
stock values, it is the opinion Of bust
ness men who are not specializing. but
are running plantations. These con
siderations should not prevent the
dealing in stocks. But they suggest
most decidedly very conservative ac-
ton in dealing in them.
The organization of the Exchange is
in reality a conservative movement. 1t
is not a speculative affair, but a nat
ural and proper method of facilitating
business

THE UNKNOWN FACTORS.

One of the misleading statements
made regarding the value of stocks is
this: That the amount of the current
dividends determines their value. 1t is
true that the value of a stock upon
which a dividend of SO per share is
annually paid, may be fairly worth
500, and more. But the real, the vital
question is, will the dividend remain
constant for period of years.
The very large number of persons
who were financially ruined by invest
ing in the Bonanza" Nevada, stocks
during the seventies, was due in
large measure to imperfect estimates
OF what was behind the dividend
Gould and Curry" did pay $500 per
share and over, and upon this dividend
repeated for several years. The stock
sold at the rate of $4,000 per share.
After a few years the stocks became
practically valueless. Those who in
vested in it, and many very cOnserva-
tive people did so, believed in the Opin-
ions of experts that there was valu-
able ore in sight quite sufficient to sup
ply large dividends, and behind that,
there was an unknown amount of ore
that lin the nature of things" must
exist This reasoning convinced mer-
chants, lawyers, doctors, widows, or
phans and servants. But the final and
terrible losses on the failure of the
rl,y,
the reasoning was.
A few years ago, upon the payment
of an s per cent dividend, and the as
surance that it must continue indefn-
itely the stock of the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa Fe Railway company
rose above par, and was absorbed by
the careful investors of New England
to the extent of $4,000, 900 and more.
The dividend alone justified this val
uation But behind the dividend and
fixing permanent values, were the I'M
known factors of competition, of good
management, of immigration, When
five trunk lines had crossed the con-
tinent, and immigration fell off, this
some years has been quoted at less
than $40 per share. The stock of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railway company
was regarded as such sure dividend
payer that scores of trustees invested
trust funds in it. The income of that
magnificent institution, the Johns Hop
kins university, was derived from it.
But, in spite of the calculations Of cap
itaIists, trustees, and general invest |
ors, mismanagement drove this superb |
property into the hands of a receiver,
and the great institution had to ask
for charity.
These experiences explain the reason
why so many investors prefer an in
come of 2 and 21a per cent annually
from a Government bond, to the larg-
er income from other securities.
Now, when the Planters Associa-

Madrid, May 14.-In the senate today one

chamber to. the fact that the Spanish
consul at Alden was an American subject.
The government promised to give atten-
