SOUTH'S COTTON MILLS.
" hat Senator Tillman Told New
England Paper.

Manchester, n. H., Sept. s.
While Senator Tillman, of South
Carolina was visiting the mills
here he talked upon the industrial
situation north and south, with
special reference to cotton manu-
featuring, in which his State is now
largely engaged. He said that
the southern cotton mills and op-
erativrs were prospering.
"Our machinery is II odern,
while that of the north is ohso.
lete," he continued. 'Our cot
ton mills arc mostly segregated in
the country, while the northern
mills are grouped in cities. Our
operatives own their own homes,
while yours are crowded into ten
emcnt houses. Can there be any
comparison between laborers thus
situated! Our laborers are salts
| fed; yours are not. Ours are
growing rich, while yours are
growing poor. And there can be
but one outcome of all this-your
people must sink to the level of
European labor or your mills must
go south. You northern people
have had monopoly of the cotton
business for ye.rs. You must
now seek something else. We are
going to beat you at it. We have
got all the natural advantages and
YOU have none. You have legis-
lated against everybody and ever
ything to protect your cotton mills
but you cannot legislate God out
Of existence nor suspend the ope-
rations of natures beneticent laws.
"The north is not satisfied with
protective tariff that shuts out
foreign goods from this market,
| and has had the nerve to introduce
bill in congress to protect one
part of the country against anoth-
er. This Lowering bill, asking
for constitutional amendment
regulating the hours of labor, is
a direct blow ut the constitutional
rights of the States to legislate
for themselves, and we will fight
you on that all summer, and until
we beat yon. We won't have
legislation of that kind. The only
thing we have ever lacked in our
State in the way of natural advan-
tages is capital, and we are now
getting that in abundance. New

matter today by refusing to grant
any additional dispensaries for

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. IA, 1898.

1t seems that the first regiment
from the State is to be mustered
out of service. We do not blame
the boys for wanting to come
nome. The war is over and
there is no more glory and no
money to be made at the price
paid the private. 1t is quite nat
ural that the officers would like to
remain in service, but the boys
the privates-did not volunteer to
do garrison duty or to live on
army rations in unhealthy camps,
when many of them have better
jobs and good homes. We do
not think any shame or disgrace
ahOuid attach to them for want
ing to come home. They volun-
tecred when it was thought their
services would be needed and
have been in readiness to obey
orders to 90 to the front and In
fact have been anxious to go to
the front when fighting was to be
done. They have done their duty
and now that peace has been de-
clarcd no blame attaches to them
for wanting to he mustered out of
the service. -Newberry Herald

DEPOSIT OF DIAMONDS.

Valuable Gems Found Associated
with Tin Ore In Australia.
An interesting occurrence of tin ore
and diamonds, which is believed to be
unique, is described in the recently-is.
sued report of the department of mines
and agriculture of New South Wales for
1896. Gravel containing casseterite in
workable quantities, together with dia-
monds, was discovered last year at
Boggy camp, Is miles west of Tiugha,
which has been for some time pro-
ductive tin field.
The pay streak at Doggy camp, which
is from 30 to so feet deep, averages from
two 10 seven feet in thickness, the
width of the lead not yet having been
ascertained. One load of gravel yielded
SIS stones of 1874 karats aggregate
weight and AZ loads furnished 600 kar-
ats of diamonds and tinstone at the rate
of 13 pounds per load. The pay streak
is quartz pebble drift underlying a
large hill of basalt. E. +. Pitman, the
government geologist who examined
the occurrence, considers that the
basalt filed what was originally an
oval-shaped depression.
The gravel rests on granite, and gran
ite can be traced entirely around the
basalt. The diamonds are white and OF
good quality, and it is thought that
when the gravel is drained the district
will make considerable production.

The celebrated Handel had such SEN
sitive nerves that he could not bear the
tuning of instruments, and so this was
always done before he arrived at the
theater. a musical wag wishing to
make mirth from Handel's irascibility
u temper, stole into the orchestra on
night when the prince of Wales was TO
'br present and untuned all the instru-
merits. As soon rs the prince arrived
Handel gave the signal for beginning
con spirito; but such was the horrible
diacord that the enraged master start
ed up from his seat, and overturning a
double-bass which stood in his way, he
seized kettle-drum and threw it with
such violence at the head of the leader
cf the band that he lost his wig in the
effort. Without waiting to replace it,
he advanced bareheaded to the front of
the orchestra, breathing vengeance,
but so choked with passion that he
could not speak. In this ridiculous at
titude he stood stamping and staring
for some moments, amid convulsion
of laughter. Nor could he be prevailed
upon to resume his seat until the prince
went in person and with much difficult
ty appeased his wrath.

who find in science no explanation and
but few precedents for the extraordi-
nary occurrence, reports the St. Louis

Ten months ago Now Chong, a
wealthy merchcnt and manufacturer
of paper flowers, had vision in which,
he said, he received a supernatural COM
munication informing him that he
would die at six p. m. the 10th day of
Shap Yee, the 18th of January. Before
the fateful day arrived he closed up his
BUSINESS, distributed bequests and on
the day set for his death was banqueted
by some 20 intimate friends at his resi-
dencc here.
The feast was In progress when he
quietly left the board and retired to his
couch. Just as the clock struck six
he died, without ~ word or struggle
Much against the wishes of his rela-
tives, an autopsy was ordered, which,
however, failed to disclose any cause OF
death. Now the authorities are in a
quandary, as the body cannot be buried
or sent home to China, as desired, with.
out death certificate, and no locaI
practitioner can solve the riddle and is

No town in Northwestern Ohio will
be more greatly benefited by having
the Ohio Centennial held in Toledo
than will our own beautiful village of
Perrysburg. The greater portion of
the thousands OF visitors who will come
to Toledo at that time will make one or
more trips around the Belt line, stop
ping to visit Fort Meigs and the village
named tor the heroic Commodore
Perry, which at that season of the year
will appear at its best. OF the thous-
ands who will then visit our town for
the first some OF them will wish to
remain, and it is therefore the duty of
our citjz ms to use any and all influence
possible to secure the Centennial for
Toledo. No great improvements or
benefits can come to Toledo without
beneftting Perrysburg to some extent.
Perrysburg is greatly interested in
having Toledo designated as the Cen =
tennia city.

that the Blade was too previous, as this
four-leaged weather prophet did not

merely came out upon the Yeranda of
his palace, shifted the Klondike breeze
through the crack of his storm door,

little more gas at 80 cents thousand

before that time.
