There is one trust under considcra-
tlon which will convince the people
that there are tTusta and trusts, and
that in some trusts there is much that
Is good. 1t is estimated that there are
produced in this country every year
25O,OO0.0OO tons of cornstalks, practi-
cally all of which go to waste, since the
few thousand tons used by the present
cellulose factories hardly made hole
IN the prOdigeous stalk pile. If all of
these cornstalks were made up into the
various products in which they can be
used, the value thus created would, il
is estimated, be in the neighborhood Of
100000 900 per year. 1t is said to be
the purpose of the trust to make n
market for this hitherto waste produce
by building half dozen or more fac
tories in the great corn belt, and add
ing to the number of its plants from

In MemOriam.

On the quiet Sabbath evening OF No
vembe Eth, 1899, when the beautiful
day was just merging into night, there
passed Into eternal rest the soul Of our
dear father, Benjamin Curtis Hard, ia
the eighty fourth year OF his age. He
had been confined to his room and bed
for nearly wear, and during that long
season OF suffering, whiob, at times, YVES
inteuHe. he never nnmple.ned, but o1-
h!5!:ea aii through mia sickness q degree
OF patience and resignation that syss Lr,, :
ly wonderful, and when like one utterly
exhausted and wearied by constant pain,
the end ca me, he calmly and peacefully
passed IL 20 the heaven Of rest, to be for
ever with his Lord.
The writer has been intimately nssocia-
ted with him for more than fifteen years,
and during that time he has had the on.
portunity OF studying closely the oharac-
ter OF this good, unpretentiOus father In
Israel. DR.. Samuel Lander, who con-
Quoted the funeral exercises, spoke OF
him aa Christian Southern Gentleman,
In the fullest sense Of the term. He was
generous In gifts. tho his means were
one ever appealed to him, 30 far as I
have known, in vain. It may be cueto-
mary to eulogiZe the dead, but In plac-
ing this little ti!bute of affection on the
life Of an hooored Christian friend it ia
not intended as any formal Ok Expression or
teesn and regard hoiG for him by the
writer and many others, who have suf-
fered II loss In his DEATH He had q large
family connection. and all through this
chain none of the links we're 40 imper-
fectly moulded AZ to reflect any discredit
on the name, but, on the contrary, by
their integrity aud uprightness of ltte
and conduct, and the example OF their
honOred parent, have striven to add new
lustre tolt.
MIR. Hard was horn in Charleston, s.
c., In August, 1916, and In early manhood
yeats, and from that city he went TO
Graniteville. 8. c., where he served for
years as Secretary OF the Grauiteville
Manufacturing Co., and upon leaving
there returned to his native city, and
some years afterwards moved bis family
iarm near that town, settled there, where
he resided until he was called home.
Iie WAS consistent member Of the NJ i.
E. Church, South; he loved his Church,
and tried to do his duty.
Brookside. (the name of the place) has
sustained an irreparable oss. Every spot
around the old homestead IL dearly asso-
ciated with him, and all about one can
see evidences OF his busy life. The
writer alwaye enjoyed being with him,
and In studying his character, be
strengthened bis own. I could say
uioros out WOrQ6 cannot express the val
ue OF such life, which must make jss
Influence deeply felt on other lives aud
"He being dead yet speak eth" After q
long earthly pilgrimage, rest time came,
aud, like tired child, he fell asleep, and
loving bands placed him by the side of
hls dear companion In the cemetery at
Williamston.

Thy works xell done.
And now with the faithful
Thy reward haa begun.
No pan nor sorrow,
No trinla to share,
But safe with your Saviour

1t is now said that it WINS former Mrs.
Hazen, now Mrs. Dewey, who made the
Admiral promise to have nothing to do
with politics, and thus settled the fate
Of the presidential b0Om in his name.
Being familiar with Washington Off
cial life, she told him she knew what
sort of criticisms would be passed upon
even "the best man in the world" if he
were to become candidate for the
presidency, and he replied that he was
quite sure that the dearest woman in
tho world" knew precisely what she
was talking about; and that settled
it.

The latter is quite ripe for discussion
now. and might well be given Il trial

Other question will have to wait Ger
tainly until the State Constitution can
be amended to permit cities to own
public utilities. This question is be-
coming more heated. and, by the time
the Legislature meets, sentiment will
have so chrystalizcd that the question
of the amendment will have to be- re-
fcrrc,l to the people for settlement.
There is Il steady. growing demand for
lower municipal taxes, and to this end
every city in the State should pull to-
gcthcr to secure its own franchises
upon the expiration of the ones now in
force, or in the absence of Il Constitu-
tional authority no franchise should be
granted for Il longer period than four
years. We are glad to note such Il
manifest interest in this question, not
only in this State, but in others, and
we read in it a sure sign of development
and progress.

The most striking feature of South
ern industrial development to-day, us
reported by the Manufacturers Record,
are the continued activity in the en-
largcmcnt of the established cotton
mills and the building of new ones. 1t
IS especially noticeable that through
out the cotton mill districts of the
South the new mills are being built
very largely by local capital. and are
to be managed by local people. Tho
pre-eminent success of the textile in
terests of the South has encouraged
the increasing investment of local
money in new mills, and at the present
time nothing else seems to appeal so
strongly to the local people as cotton
mill Investments.

We this generation hardly realize
how recently private warfare, in the
shape of the duel. has been suppressed.
There arc people living who remember
when men of sensitive honor could
with difficulty keep themselves, or he
kept, from fighting. whenever they
were insuted. Yet the duel has been
practically abandoned ly the English
race. and is little more than IL form
among other peoples. In England and
the United States not even soldiers
and sailors fight ducls; elsewhere
serious duelling is confined to tho
military class.

PARIS, July 26-An evening paper Is au-
thority for the statement that General Eur
linden. former Military Governor Of Paris.
will be removed from the Supreme Council
Of War. as was General De Negrier yester-
day. The depression in rentes, which de-
clined nearly a quarter of a point to-day.
is attributed solely to the action of the
Ministry yesterday In the case of General
De Negrier, of which NJ. Waldeck-Rousseau,
the prime minister and General the Mar
quis De Gallifet, the minister of war, gave
new proofs of their energy in dealing with
all elements of trouble. General De Negrier
is acknowledged to be one of the best
French generals, and as inspector general
of four army corps and member of the
Supreme Council of War, enjoyed the con-
fidence of his fellow-oficers and the public.
The compromising statements he made at
Bourges smack so strongly Of a coup detat
or some form of pronunciamento in posse
that 1t has created anxiety among financiers
and spectators, who do not know what
may be the upshot of the governments
strong step or how far military officers are
inspired with sentiments similar to those
expressed by General De Negrier.

lines of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany, who by their refusal to go out, de-
feated the recent strike of the trolley car

would be graded as motormen and their
wages reduced from 80 to s2.25 a day. 1t
is reported that the committee requested
Mr.. Rossiter to sign an agreement lot to
reduce the wages of the engineers for one
