Slavery IS Not Yet Extinct

1t is generally supposed that slav
cry no longer exists in the United
States of America, but by those who
make close study of such matters
this will be promptly recognized as a
very great mistake. In San Francisco
alone there are said to be 900 Chinese
women who are, 80 far as they know
to the contrary, the property Of their
masters
In Brooklyn quite recently rather
attractive young woman was sold TO
a Chinese laundryman for $4,000.
The remarkable phase of the Chinese
slavery which prevails in this coun-
try is that the victims do not seem to
realize the abjeclness of their condition
and would very much prefer to re-
main here as they are than return to
their native land and its daily grind
for food, with the result of each day 8

School Charts Again.
The Attorney General Rem
ders an Opinion.

Assistant Attorney Gen Gunter
has fer some time been giving his at
tention to the matter Of paying for
the school charts about which there
has been 80 much said recently
The question submitted to him is
whether trustees are permitted legal
ly to pay for charts by warrants on
the coming years school fund.
This has been done in punber OF
instances Mr Gunter had not
written out his decision this morning.
but he said that be would hold that
trustees could not do so.
The question whether they had a
right to expend school money for
such u.pose has not been submit
ted to him His ruling on the first
point will go long way in stopping
the purchase of charts, for few school
districts have any money to spare for
the purpose
It will be hard on the chart men.
even if they wait until next years
money is available, as conditions
will be about the same then as they
are now-no money to spend upon
such luxuries Trustees will have to
make some arrangements about them
or the chart company will have to
take back their goods as second hand.

An Old Superstition.

An old soldier writes tc the Ne"
York Times about fever and claims
that the Cuban and southern maladies
are the same and that they are prac-
tically incurable when once contract
ed He declares that he contracted
fever at Gloucester Point, Va, in
1868. Quinine and whiskey only
mitigated his complaint. s. northern
doctor afterward dosed him With
arsenic, but to no good purpose
He is still, after all these years, a
physical wreck. So, he raises the
lament
"My impression is that malaria
proper is liver trouble, and that
quinine has no virtue whatever in
efecting even temporary cure.

There are many southern men who
had the so called malarial fever and
recovered from it completely Some
got we'll on quinine, arsenic and iron,
after long suffering. Others were
speedily cured and permanently so
by merely drinking such water as
Glenn Spring produces The elimi
nation of the poison by the action of

method. Bad cases of this disease
have been cured in less than q week
at Glenn Springs and the patients
are we'll and hearty, with none Of
the protracted agonies mentioned by
this New jersey soldier. If he has
not altogether impaired his liver and
kidneys by some imprudeace of drugs
and stimulants, we advise him to buy
a ticket for Spartanburg, S. G., and
take trip of few miles, by rail, to
Glenn Springs. Dr.. Simpson will
put him Oh the simple diet of pure

ed his interior department This
man, like so many thousands of peo-
pie, thinks that the air of the south
and of Cuba causes the disease, but
he is mistaken, as many others are.
The air of Cuba and the south is
wholesome, but. in some places, the
water is not. The man WHO started
III at malaria theory, however honest
or sincere, has done more unioten-
tional harm to the South, materially,
than a series of war, pest;lence and
famine Great progress has been
made of late years ID andoing this
injury, but the work of reparatlon is
still incomplete. Somebody compar-

service - First, he accni-ed the

he has taken, apparently, very

bricks from the peniteutiary, paying
nothing for them, of course. sus-
picious folk declare this to be most
unwarranted acquisition, but hear the
explanation. Mr.. GaEris Gays the
bricks were entirely worthless, that
no one would buy them at any price
and Col. Neal, good, patient man,
was sorely concerned as 10 their
disposition. Then Mr., Garris. one
of the directors Of the penltentlafy,
came along and. seeing Col Meals
embarrassment, offered to relieve him
by taking the brick bats off bis
hand They we're of no value to
him, but for the good Of the State ne
would take them. Was not that a
fine action !? Mr.. Garris deserves a
higher Office than railroad commits

attentions Mr.. Garris paid to the
