to the alleged existence Of plague in this

ter, inasmuch as only members OF the
Mongolian race were held within its re-
strictions; that the method of quaran-
tine tended more to increase the danger
of conlagion from the plague, because
it quarantined district instead of hous-

A Minister Robbed.

The Greenville Times says the Rev.
". H. Wharton, well known minister
Of the up-country, retired Thursday
night at the usual hour and up to l
o'clock enjoyed a peaceful sleep. About
that hour he was awakened by noise
in his room, and when he investigated
the cause from his upright position in
bed he saw a man taking an inventory
of the contents of his truak. He arose
and approached the thief and was met
with the remark that all the ready cash
he had must be given up. The minis
ter told the amount he had in the room
and the thief replied that he already
mad it in his possession. The midnight
caller seeing nothing else he wanted
cody drew pistol and pointed it at
the minister and in a cool deliberate
manner made his exit, going 7ia the
door he came in. When the sudden
and unpleasant ordeal was over Mr.
Wharton found that his overcoat and
gold watch and chain vas gone, pre-
sumably with the thief. Search was
made Friday morning for information
concerning the unknown man but no
such could be had.

Dire Famine in India.

A dispatch from Calcutta says the
council Friday considered the famine
situation. The official estimates show
the cost to the government Of the re-
lief works, etc., to the end Of March

100000 persons are now affected IN

COTTON MILL LEGISLATION.
Considered by the Education Commit
tee of the Senate.

The Marchall-KDg''s Daughters bill,
preventing the employment Of children
under y years old in cotton mills,
came up Tuesday .fternoon before the
committee on education of the Senate.
1t had been previously announced that
any parties interested would be given a
hearing. j. L. Orr and L. ". Parker,
Of Greenville; Mr.. Hickman, cfGranite-
vile, and Leroy Springs, Of Lancaster,
appeared before the committee in op.
position to the bill. Col. James L. Orr
was the chief spokesman for the mill
meo. He referred to the fact that the
most cordial relations now existed be-
tween mill men and operatives, and
that no legislation was needed on any
mill question now. The mill men had
no objection to law limiting the age,
provided it vas made compulsory tina:
the children be educated Mill owners
themselves did not want to employ such
labor, but since the parents would not
send them to school it was best to en-
ploy them in the mills aud keep them
out Of mischief, such as breaking win
dow glasses aud other fragile property
about the mills. The operatives them
selves wanted their children employed.
and if it was not given them they would
take themselves and families to North
Carolina, where they could secure en-
ployment. This would disorganize
labor in this State. 1t was further
stated that mill owners have been
negotiating with owners in North Car
olipa to cease employing children y
years old unless they had preyiouly
been to cchool. Unless both States
acted in unison on the subject any law
like the proposed one would be an in
jury to the mill interests Of the State.
Other gentlnen briefly spoke, emphasiz-
ing the points made by Col. Orr. The
committee tied when vote was taken
and the bill will be reported back with
out recommendation. Those voting
for the bill Sere Senators Marshall,
Mauldin and W. A. Brown; those
against it Senators Graydon, Brown, of
Darlington, and Henderson.

To Refund Cotton Money.

The Southern Senators express them
selves as hopeful over the prospects of
securing legislation during the present
session of congress looking to the re-
funding of money paid into the treas
ury of the United States soon after the
civil war as the result Of the sale of cot
ton captured by the Federal forces:
There was originally abort $50, 600, 600
of this money, but portion Of it was
paid to the owners Of the cotton soon
after the close Of the war. The re-
mainder was left in the treasury and
has remained there ever since. Sena-
tor Money, who is giving especial at
tention looking to the re9pening Of the
subject, says that the sum left amounts
to about s11, 100000. A bill intro
duced by Senator Davis, gives one year
additional time for proof Of such claims
before the court Of claims. 1t has been
fayorably reported by the senate COM
mittee on claims, and Senator Money
thinks the outlook very good for favor
able action. Most Of the claims arc
held in the Southern States.

Criminal Careleness.

\ dispatch to the Columbia State
says Jack Thomas accidentally shot and
killed George Mccall. There were no
witnesses to the shooting. Both par
ties were Negroes and were the best Of
friends. The verdict was to the effect
that the shooting was accidental and
the prisoner was liberated. The Ne
groes were trading pistols. Thomas,
thinking he had removed all Of the
cartridges from his revolver, began to
snap it. 1t was discharged and Nc
Cali was struck just above the heart
with a 3S-calibre ball. Death was in
stantaneous. Thomas is a highly re-
spectacle Negro, and his regret OF the
accident is genuine.
