Plunged Among The Sharks.

A magazine writer, in describing a
recent tri p at sea, says an interesting
Occurrence on the ocean trip was when
Lascar sailor volunteered to show
how sharks were killed in his country.
Several were following in the wake of
the ship at the time, and the Lascar
selected the largest for the exhibitlo n.
Divesting himself Of his already scant
apparel he armed himself with knife,
which he carried between his teeth and
made deep dive. We did not see
him for fully two minutes, and just
when We thought something was wrong,
a great commotion occurred among the
sharks, and slowly one turned over on
his back, the water, meanwhile, be.
coming deep red. The Lascar had
swum under water and used his dirk
with deadly effect, So quiet had been
his approach that the other fishes had
failed to notice him, and when they
did they were frightened off by the
splashing made by their wounded
brother.

THE CROPS AND WEATHER.
What the Department Of Agriculture
Says About Them.

The week ending Aug. II, 1899, gave
acontinuation Of the excessively hot
weather that has prevailed almost
without cessation since the opening Of
the crop season. The weekly mean
temperature was about 5 degrees above
the normal.
Thunderstorms occurred on the oth,
10th and 18th, quite generally over the
State with, however, localities that had
no rain in insufficient amounts, while
generally there was enough, and in Col
Teton and Edgcield counties excessive
rains occurred. In the latter county.
at Poverty HILL nearly nine inches
fell during two showers, flooding bottom
lands, and damaging crops thereon.
Higl winds and hail also did some
damage by blowing down corn. and beat
ing down other field crops.
Army worms continue to destroy
young corn and grass, and were report
ed from more counties than last week,
but their number is apparently decreas-
ing. Horn worms on tobacco have
spread over three counties and are very
troublesome.
Early cotton is opeoing over the en-
tire State, and picking has begun in To-
calities. There is somewhat less she'd
ding than last week, but rust is spread
ing. The bottom crop is heavy one,
the middle crop very poor having been
shed, while the new growth is putting
on top crop in places. AS whole,
its present condition cannot be said to
be promising, nor yet extremely poor,
both conditions prevailing according to
locality. Sea island cotton shedding
some, still blighting, is we'll fruited and
beginning to open.
There IS general improvement in corn
that has not reached maturity, with a
few reports OF exceeding fire crops, but
the contrary is the rule. Fodder pull
ing is we'll under way and being finished
IN southeastern counties. A fair yield
of fodder has been saved.
Tobacco cutting and curing is about
finished in the eastern districts. The
quality Of the crop has been further
injured in places by excessive heat aud
worms. In the western districts cut
ting has only begun.
Rice is heading and some is ripening
while harvesting has begun on small
scale. Many report upland rice very
poor. Sugar cane, sorghum, peas and
pinders doing we'll generally. Turnips
being sown and lands prepared for fall
truck crops.

a Northern Ergument.

The brilliant '.Tio os the Tongue
man in the New York Press, says:
''iios eau The south hold out for
silver? The price Of cotton went up
10 points in ten days. That is equiva-
lent to - bale. The crop last year
was II, 600, 900 bales. vt 81 bale the
value Of the cropis increased 22.OC0,
600. Every pound Of cotton is sold for
gold. 1t is worth its weight in gold. 1t
is gold! What fools these farmers be-
The price Of cotton, on the gambling
exchanges, goes up and down, daily
and it is little Joker The bulk Of
the crop was sold long ago by the south
ern producers at very low figures. a
few men made money by the late da-
vance. 1t is no consolation to the
southern planters that their cotton sells
for four or five cents pound in gold.
They are not as much fooled as you
think they are.-Augusta Chronicle.

NOT BEDS OF ROSES.
American Prisoners of Filipinos Suffer
inc Cruel Hardships.

The San Francisco Bulletin publish
es a startling story from the Philippines
regarding Lieut.. Gilmore and the
party from Yorktown who we're cap
tured by the Filipinos and who have
been reported from official sources as
being well cared for and we'll treated.
1t appears that when the Americans
reached San Isidro, where the York
town members and some soldiers any
civilians had been imprisoned, then
found the names of the prisoners
scratched on the walls of the Jail.
Some letters from the men were found
secreted under stones, and a Spaniard,
who had been instructed with several,
presented them to Gen. Lawton. The
letters told Of the hardships the men
were compelled to suffer, and begged
that aid be sent them. The men com:
planned that they had been starved,
beaten and bound, and, moreover
were in rags. One Of the letters signed
by Albert Lowensohn, said the Span,
iards had been treated very buddy
worse than the Americans, and that
hundreds were dying of dysentery and
other diseases and that the govern
ment took no notice of sickness pre-
vailiDg. In his letter, LoWeDsohn,
who was formerly Of the steamship
Zealandia, gave the list Of prisoners
held by the Filipinos as follows:

But, says some one, haven't
these institution sometimes been fail
ure?" Yes. Every great movement
has been failure at some tine. Ap-
plication of the steam power failure,
electro telegraphy failure, railroading
failure, but now the chief successes
Of the world.
"But," says some one, why talk Of
surplus being put by laborers into CO.

multitude of toilers Of this country are
struggling for their daily bread and
have no surplus?" l reply: Put into
my hand the money spent by the labor
ing classes of America for rum and to-
bacco, and will establish cooperative
associations in all parts of this land,
some Of them mightier than any inan-
cial institutions Of the country. We
spend in this country over 800, ,000,-
900 every year for tobacco, We spend
over 81, 800, coo, 900 directly or indi-
.ectly for rum. The laboriDg classes
spend their share Of this money. Now,
suppose the laboring man who has been
ezpending his money in those directions
should just add up howmuch he has ex-
pended during these past few years and
then suppose that that money was put
into cooperative association and then
suppose he should have all his friends
in toll, who had made the same kind Of
expenditure, do the same thing. and
that should be added up and put into
cooperative association. and then

points where most Of the filibustering
expeditions land.

be made a base OF operations. but sueh-

Arthur and Lawton moving upon the
enemy from three directions and the
