HON. ALE TAYLoR,s LECTURE

The bad weather of Tuesday night caused many of our people to miss the rare opportunity offered at the Merrill Institute to hear the Hon. Ali Taylor in his famous lecture, tPoetry and Pearls. Notwith- standing that fact. there was a fair sized audience present and they were doubly paid for their out-eoming. This was the second lecture given under the auspices of the Ladies Aid Society of the First Methodist church and this was Mr. Taylor's first visit to this city.
 We will have to agree with the editor of Georgia paper who re- marked through his columns recent ly that "all the difference we can see between Governor Bob and HoE Ali Taylor is that one is just lit tie bit more bald headed than the other, though for the life of us we could not tell which IS the more lacking in hair. It is the same way as to their intellects. When yGu are with Bob you think it is he, and i when you see Ali you say it IS be As far as we are concerned it is 2 toss up for the difference.
 Poetry and Pearls" is magnif- cent literary production. In senti meut, pathos, and in bright flights of fancy, Ali Taylor is without 2 parallel. unless it be bis famous brother, Gov Bob" Taylor. All who attended were delighted witt the poetry and pearls that fell from the lips of the distinguished orator.

PETE" DAILEY'S LUCK.

Peter F. Daley in Hodge, Podge X Co.," is playing at the Madison Square Theatre. in New York. The house is packed at every perform ance. The audiences greatly enjoy his curtain speeches. When he first opened his run in New York he used to tell the audience to go out bt- tween acts and surprise him by buy ing him a diamond ring. Last week he came before the curtain and ended his remarks with his usual lines about the ring. Just as he said this a package was thrown on the stage. He picked it up but did not open 1t until he reached his dressing room. It contained not one, but four dia- mond rings. Daley, since then, has not sad a word about diamond rings before the curtain. They came too fast for him.

WOMEN DID 1T.
Officers Think the Gorkscrew Murder
 Was Committed by Females.

The negro woman whose throat was cut and head battered at Cork screw Tuesday morning, was named Lutilla HiLes. She was about 32 years of age and lived alone, having separated from ber husband over 8 years ago.
 There is 10 clue to the guilty party. The woman was killed dur ing the night. Her body was not put in the stove, as at first suppos- ed but the clothing she wore was set a6re and the remains almost eremated. The coroner's jury said she came to her death at the hands of an unknown assassin.
 The officers have secured enough particulars to lead them to believe that the woman was murdered by negro woman, or women, who re- side at Corkscrew and who are known to have hated her. Several of them will probably be arrested today.
 Deputy Pleas Gulpepper returned from Corkscrew last night empty handed. He has some light up his sleeve, however, and vii. throw it in  dark places shortly.
 There have been entirely LOO many murders committed in this county during the past several months. Notwithstanding the fact that the officers have made strenuous efforts to capture the guilty parties, they have met with little success on each occasion. Something must be done.

been prohibited. A very few excep-
tiens have been made in favor of small
steam launches run under a special
charter granted by provincial govern
orss who, for this unexampled liberal
ity, would pocket a large share of the
profits. All this will be changed by
the opening of the inland waters to
steamers.
Then, as in Japan, within genera
tion the clumsy old junks will disap-
pear, apd be replaced by steamers of all
sizes and sailboats of modern pat
tern. Along the coast and on the
large rivers junks are used in great
numbers. They are built of thick pine
planks, with high stem.
Their tackle is Of the rudest, involv-
ing great waste of strengthin in friction;
thus requiring double the number of
sailors. The sails are generally made
of bamboo and cane leaves, though
canvas is now occasionally seen. The
ordinary ssa-going junk is of about
100 to 200 tonnage; though they make
them as large as 4, 900 tons. 1t is hard
~ necessary to add that these crude
vessels are about equal in sailing ca
pacity to Noah's famous ark, which
was not intended to do anything but

except Holland. The Grand canal in the
north, and some others, were made for
navigation; but the plains of central
and south China are covered, when
ever possible, with small shallow cam
ais for irrigation. The water is pumped
from these by treadmiH pumps upon
the rice fields, which must be kept COW
cred with water all the time. But these
canals are also used for transporta-
ton, little fat-hottomed rowboats be-
ing seen everywhere upon them, car
rying freight and passengers.
That which impresses the foreigner
most in all this is how utterly obliv-
ious the native methods are to time.
Two miles an hour is fair average
rate upon these canals. and ~ miles is
medium slow; three miles an hour is
swift dispatch, with strong, fair wind
and light cargo. When we are in d
hurry we walk. Launches of light
draught are sure to take the place of
these wretched RATS for passenger traf-
fic in the near future. These well-wa.
tered plains are all very densely popu-
lated, and a swift passenger service
would be well patronized.
