Tit For Tat.

Some years ago, before Mr.. Isl
dore, the composer, made his name
he was abroad, and at "At Home
a friend took him up to a lady who
considered herself musical, and ask
ed permission to introduce him to
her. She replied loudly enough for
Mr.. Isidore to hear:
"Ob, no, thanks. I never make ac-
ouaintances on the Continent"
Sometimes afterward, at crowded
London party, when Mr.. Isidore was
the lion of the evening, the same
lady rushed up to him, in most et.
fusive manner:
How nice it is to see you again
Mr.. Isidore; it seems such ages since
we met abroad. You must be sure
and come to my Tuesdays"
The composer bowlng, replied:
Thank you; but 1 rever renew an
acquaintance made on the Continent.

planted in cotton last spring and
we'll fertilized will make good crop
as the last years crop did no exhaust
the fertilizers.

Thursday Senate.
The senate's session today was
short and uneventful. About an
hour was devoted to the introduction
of new bills, of which there were 10,
and to the consideration of the Gale n
dar. After that recess of few
minutes was taken until the hour Of
noon when the senate and house met
in joint assembly.
Senator Graydon's resolution oin-
struct and require the attorney gen.
eral to investigate the operation of
the Virginia. Carolina Chemical COM
pany was really the only interesting
measure introduced. As is generally
known this concern has purchased
nearly all the phosphate or fertilizer
factories in the South and now con-
trolls all of them in South Carolina
with only few exceptions. The
purpose of Senator Grsydon's resolu-
tion is to determine whether this
combine has violated the antitrust
laws of this State and to have the
attorney general institute proceed
ings against the company if ground
of action be found. This is the first
measure which might be termed
antitrust legislation to come before
the general assembly since the ur-
precedented development Of the in
dustries of the State within the last
few years and the raIii multiplica-
tion of corporations. Being himself
a well-posted lawyer. Senator Gray
don may have good grounds for his
action. The resolution went over
for consideration.
The only debate among the sena-
tors was upon the bill requiring re.
turns of banks to be made with the
comptroller general. The bill was
killed by decisive vote and it is
thus seen that the senate is not dis
posed to be unnecessarily harsh in
it's treatment Of corporations.
