The Buddhists in Ceylon are now en-
ergetically preaching that the end of the
world will come this year. with the re-
suit that the faithful see that 1t would
be mere waste of time to grow rice or
in any way provide for the wants of
next year, and are instead giving their
minds seriously to pilgrimage to An
uradhapura. At the present time Euro
pean residents In Ceylon are finding
that religion is poor substitute for ra-
tons, and the outlook for the future is
sad indeed. Next year the pilgrims of
to-day will be looking out for help from
the government for there will be fam
inc in the land.

One of the London correspondents
writes: All of the personal paragraphs
and society news that appear in the
London papers is paid for except that
which relates to the royal family, the
nobility and the diplomatic corps. If
any ordinary citizen gives ball or mar
ries off his daughter, or entertains the
Prince of Wales at dinner, he is COM
PEELED to pay for his glory. Mrs John
w. Mackay, Mr.. William Waldorf AS
tor and other ordinary persons, native or
foreign. in London society, pay for ev-
cry notice they receive in the news
papers; sometimes the report of ball
or wedding costs $500 or $500 for every
newspaper it appears in.

The position Of coal oil inspector in
the leading cities of Tennessee has been
largely sought after for several years,
and this has been no cause of wonder
How very profitable these positions
have been may be inferred from the re-
port of the inspector at Memphis, who
in the past two years has pocketed in
fees $19,51S The fees at Nashville were
quite as large. But these fat pickings,
beginning with the first of July, have
been dispensed with, the last legisla-
ture having abolished these political
sinecures by fixing moderate salary
for the inspectors and providing that
the excess of fees be turned over to the
State.

The closing paragraph of the will of
William Steel, the banker who died re-
centlv in San Rafael, California, leav-
ing an estate of 100000, reads thus:
Sand I make the special request that
INV body be cremated and that not one
conner coin of the income of my estate
he expended upon or in any chapel or
church, or upon the support or encour-
agement, directly or indirectly, of any
so-called minister Of the Gospel, or on
missionaries of any sect, for the whole
of the tribe of whom I entertain sin
cere. well-founded and unconquerable
aversion, because during my lifetime /
found that both the men and women
preachers did not know about what they
wore talking" Perhaps William has
discovered by this time that he didn't
know anything worth speaking of.

IMPUDENT NEGROES.

Mr.. +. l.. Milan, engineer of the
switch engine, lives at The Hedges,
near the city cemetery. Last Tuesday
evening about 80 O'Clock, two strange
negro men, who had been seen hang
ing around the premises for some time.
entered the yard and came up on the
veranda. Mrs. Milan went to the door
and asked them what they wanted
They said they wanted to buy some
milk. She told them she had no milk
to sell. They said they wanted it for a
SICK child. She told them she would
let them have some milk for the sick
child, but she had nothing to put it in.
and they would have to go and get n
vessel. They hesitated, and wouldn't
leave and were evidently bent on evil.
Mrs. Milam's sister came to the door
oy this time, and Mrs. Milan stepped
oack lntoher room and appeared with
shot gun in her hands and ordered
the lmpudent negroes to leave at once.
ana they did, and in hurry at that.
Mr.. Milan was at home in the bath
tub, but his wife didn't say ANYTHING
to him abont it, but used the shot gun
to good advantage.

SILK CULTURE In MARIETTA.

Mrs. II. K. Lawhon, on Atlanta
street, is experimenting little in silk
culture, and has kindly sent us small
box with glass sides showing two SIX
worms spinning their cocoons. 1T il
wonderful to watch these little crea-
lures in this work
But still more wonderful it is that
these little insignificant worms furnish
ALI the $500 OO0, 900 worth of silk to the
world. and all the labor strikes, labor
unions, trusts and other combines have
never been able to turn them out of
their job. They have the same monop-
oily today that they held over 1900
years ago when first discovered in the
business in China, Our country is far
up in the scale of advanced enterprise
and prosperity in nearly every thing
except in the matter of silk culture.
Even people from the silk growing
sections Of Europe tell us that we have
millions of square miles here fully equal
to the best silk growing portions of
Europe. Then why should we be al
most solely dependent upon foreign
countries for our silk?
There was time when we had no
market this side of the Atlantic, but
now America has over four hundred
silk factories and they are sending $780,
100000 annually to foreign countries
for raw and reeled silk to keep them in
operation, and there is about an equal
amount sent for manufactured silk
goods. Thus it will be seen that this
country is sending to foreign countries
about 100000 annually for that
which we can produce, equal in quality
to that from any country in the world,
and in quantity not equaled by any ex-
cept, possibly, China. Our first class
silk producing area is more than double
that OF all the silk growing area of Eu-
rope combined, and Southern California
has been discovered to be the very
Paradise of the silk worm. There they
can be raised eight months in the year
and Mrs. Carrie Williams at San Diego,
CAL, is accomplishing wonders in de-
veloping the industry.
We raise just as good silk here, but
not quite so many months in the year.
The efforts of Mrs. Lawhon in this
line are to be commended.
