WHERE ALL ARE HAPPY.

The most interesting place it has been my good fortune to visit in many years" said T. M. Gilmore. on hts re- turn from the east q few days ago. IS the little town of Economy, Pa. It is well worth a long journey to stc. and The people are the most delightful l have ever met. The foundation of this town dates back to 1895. IL was settled by q priest whose namc was Father ltapp. and number of Germans. They organized a society which was called lbe Harmony sociJty, and numbered nearly 1000 people at the time. They pledged themselves never to marry. The society has now dwindled tn nine persons, but the town is thickIy popu- lated because f the advent of other people. who lease and operate ube fac t0lies. The society owns $500 acres of land, which is in a high state of culti Natton. Coal, iron and gas abound. Grapes are raised In great quantities ard are made into wine of fna ural- ity.
 The town is very pretty. with wide and shady streets. and with houses covered with vines. They have un doors ana me only entrance is from the rear. Economy is oXercised on all sides. and when the society is reduced to one per son he will get the entire vast estate People visit the place from all parts of She world. Men and women live alone and all seem to be happy and content eG. The present head of the society is q married man. He was single when he lolned IL. but he afttrward left it and Vas married. The people recognize him as a leader and he was invited back and made their chief. He and his fam fly live in handsome residence in the center of the town, and have every EHlns heart could desire. When the old
 henpers die he or his children will get everything, as it is one of the rules of the society that nothing can be willed away. Economy is certainly the gar oen spot of PennsyIvania.-Enuis Courier Journal

 1ounS SquallOp was, indeed, remem- Dered. The bulk f his rLlativ,s means was found to be sunk in annuities. but the size of the package bequeathed to the young man surprised him. He opened 1t, examined the contents and locked N away from prying eyes.

 Yes" he replied, "my uncle left me ten thousand"

 "l didn't say dollars. He left mo 10000 chess problems"

borne out the passing of the steam en- zine is now in sight.
 The details of the new electrical won der have not yet been announced. but, it is said, they are ready to be made public in a few days.
 In view of this that the invention is to do away entirely with storage bat teries. dynamos. etc. the details are being eagerly awaited by all electri- cians-from the engineer who plans and builds great electrical power houses down to the humble conductor of an electrical automobile.
 The new plan. it is asserted. will not only revolutiOnize travel, both on land and sea-supplanting the throbbing triple expansion engines of the liner with a small oil stove and the monster boiler of the ponderous locomotive with a light cylinder-but also revolu- tioniZe the use of electricity in homes and offices
 The new machine is small, simple and inexpensive. It can be operated anywhere and under all conditions; in an automobile or an ocean liner: in barn or power house.
 September 15 is the date when the details of the new invention are to be made public.-New York Journal

A NEW COTTON COUNTRY.

Oklahoma is fast coming to the front as cotton producing section, accord ing to a writer in Harper's. Crops worth $5,OO0OOO are being raised, and the industry is in its infancy. This crop, or most of it. should come to Memphis.
 Expert cotton buyers say that the Oklahoma district ranks among the best in the nation. climate and soil making the product satisfactory in every respect when the proper care is taken by the grower. This is the weakness of the Oklahoma farmer, for the business is a new one to him. What delights him is that dry weather does not scare cotton. It may injure the yield, but it does not kill it. Then it is poor mans crop, and the Oklahoma farmers are not yet riding on the wave of atfiuence. With large families of boys and girls to care for, or with little money for the expensive machinery needed for wheat raising, the poorer farmers are prevented from engaging in that business extensively. But with cotton 1t is different. The young folks can save labor in tending and picking time, and often the five acre patch re turns net $10O as reward for the chil- dren's assistance.-Memphis Commer- cial Appeal.

1 commissioners at Paris, gwen in Oc-
 tober, 1898, best illustrate his position: Tt is imperative upon us that as victors We should be governed only by
 motives which will exalt our nation l The territorial expansion should be our ] least concern; that we shall not shirk the moral obligations of our victory is | of the greatest importance. II Is un- ! disputed that Spain'S authority is per
 manently destroyed in every part of l the Philippines. To leave any part in her feeble control now would increase our difficulties and be opposed to the interest of humanity. Nor can we per init Spain to transfer any of the islands to another power. Nor can we invite another power or powers to join the United States in sovereignty over them. We must either hold them or turn them back to Spain.
 consequently. grave as are the re- responsibilities and unfortunate as are the difficulties which are before us. the president can see but one plain path of duty the acceptance of the archipela- go. Greater difficulties and more ser ious ns-administrative and international-woul follow any other course. The president has given to the views of the commissioners the fullest considera ton. and reaching the con clusion above announced in the light of the information communicated to the president since your departure, has been influenced by the single consider ation of duty and humanity. The pres ident is not unmindful of the distressed Financial condition of Spain and what ever consideration the United States may show must come from its sense of generosity and benevolence rather than real or technical obligation"
 There is no trace of imperialism in the above quoted lofty remarks. MT. Mckinley, as the chief executive of a great nation. advised the retention of the Philippines through motives of patriotism and a full sense cf this coun- try's obligations He did exactly as Washington, or Jefferson. or Lincoln would have done in the circumstances. "The fathers" as The Republican pointed out the other day, were eXpan- sionists. and they never shirked their plain duty.

SOULFUL ROCK BREAKING.

Aunt Hattie" Robinson, the quaint and comfortably fat co.orel woman who is breaking rocks on the streets of St. Louis rather than do washing. is a living proof of the truth that the hard work of life is only the work we hate to do.
 It would seem at first glance that laundering should come much easier and pleasanter to Aunt Hattie as a means of livelihood than pounding jagged stones with a heavy hammer. The difference lies. however. in the spirit with which she goes to the work. She hates laundering in her very soul. She is happy sitting out in the sun breaking rock and singing plantation melodies. So theIa you are. T knows Ise doin somethin' funny" says Aunt Hattie. but it's heap easier than washin', and if l wants to do it, it ain't nohody's business"
 In which conviction the homely phil osopher with the hammer is eminentiy correct. It is nobOdy's business. and it is best for her to do that honest work which most surely gratifies her soul. Persons higher up in lifes scale than Aunt Hattie Robinson often do slike- wise, to their vastly greater edification and cOmfurt.-St. Louis Republic.

FUNNY NEWS.

It is stated in some little society or gan published in New York that Thomas Nelson Page, in denying that the American people are looking to the fast and loose set which calls itself, or is called, the Four Hundred as an eXemplar, and would be glad of an op- pOrtunity to ape its goings on, has giV- en OtfenSe to certain women in Wash- ington city, and will, as a result, be given the cold shoulder this winter.
 This is about the funniest piece of news we have heard in many day. In the first place, We do not know of any clique or set in Washington high and mighty enough to snub such man as ThUEas Nelson Page. In the second place, We do not know of any respect able women in Washington who are under any temptation to take up the cudgels in behalf of the vulgar. braZen, and profligate crowd which the novelist so aptly characterized in hns New Hampshire address.
 MT. Page simply took advantage of an admirable opportunity to voice the views of an overwhelming majority of the American people with respect to the antics of the rich Vulgarians who are aping all that is stupid and perni- cious in French and English society. Mr. Page spoke for the whole country. Atlanta Constitution.
