Negroes in Cotton Mills.

y new company has been organze d
within the past ,'lw days at Charleston,
5. c., for the purpose Of erecting aud
operating a cotton mill. 1t is said
that some Of the largest stock holders in
the proposed company are also large
holders Of stock in the Eesta Cotton
Mill of the same place, which is now
being partly operated by colored labor.
One Of the promoters Of this ne.
company stated recently that they
would demonstrate that modern cot
ton mill could be successfully opera
ted in the city Of Charleston by white
labor
y little over three years ago the
directors Of the Charleston Mills
reached Il decision, the result Of which
was the employment of colorcd opera
tivcs in the mill. At the en-! Of a
year no satisfactory progress had
been made, but instead, the owners
were out several thousands Of dollars.
The company was again reorganized
and the name changed to the Nesta
Mills, colored help, OF course, being
continued. The officials of the mill
still claim that this class Of help is
success, but when it is remembered
that at the end of three years the mill
is not running and never has run to
its full capacity, and that what ma
chinery is running has never at any
time during those three years turned
off it's full production, it will be very
plainly seen that the days of the
negro as cotton mill operative are
numbered. Furthermore, if the opera
tion Of the Nesta Mill by negroes has
been a success why should these same
parties who are interested in the new
company decide 10 favor Of white
labor, when such always has been a
scarce article in towns like Charleston? :?
Their action is it itself an admission
of the unsuitability Of the African
race 70 the duties OF cotton mlII
operative.
In Charleston there are about 35 900
negroes, yet it is said to be almost i'm
possible to obtain sufficient number
to operate this one mill. The average
cotton mill operative must be such
as can be depended upon at all times,
and it goes without saying that the
negro is not Of his class.
The experiment Of the Xesta Mill
owners has been costly one, and it
should be a sufficient warning to all
those who have at any time supposed
that the negro as an operative in a
cotton mill gon!d ever Be suooess.-

A Courteous Greeting.

A gallant old American soldier who
at one time was we'll known in Kansas
had many idiosyncrasies, not the least
of which was an irrepressible dislike
for young lieutenants when first sent
out from West Point. The name Of
this soldier was Gen. Starr, and at the
time Of which we write he was q ma
jor in the Sixth United States cavalry,
though during the civil war he had
been brigadier general.
In 1874 Gen. Starr was in command
at Fort Riley, and one day an orderly
oamo to his quarters with message
that Lieut.. Morrison, just from West
Point, was at the post ready to pay
his respects and report for duty. In
response to this message the old gen.
eral was starting for his Office, when
his wife, motherly old soul, plucked
him by the sleeve and said: "Now,
general, promise me that you won't be
rough with that young man."
"Rough?" said the old man, smiling
amiably upon his matrimonial com.
paniou. "Why, I'll be peaches and
cream unless the young dog riles me. ;"
Reaching his Office the general was
confronted with dapper little follow,
as spick and span as though he had
just come from the hands of his bar
Der aud tailor. while he had the half
supercillious air that seems insepara-
bic from the first stages of military
education.
Looking the young lieutenant over
for half q moment the old general said
with great dignity: Chow do you
do, Mr.. Morrison? I am pleased to
see you Then, as a flush gradually
mounted over his weather beaten fea-
lures, he added: II am always glad
to see you young men from tho Mill
tary academy. ye:-yyoa- <.hs75 <sas75 the the

Five Days in a Trance.

A remarkable case or trance Of sus.
pended animation occurred in Milford
last week. Sophie, the ll-year old
daughter Of Mark Fowler, of Broad
Street, lay in an unconscious coudi-
tion from Sunday evening to Friday
forenoon, taking no nourishmcnt and
giving no signs Of life whatever. The
little girl went into this trance prob
ably late last Sunday evening. She
had attended the services at the Mil
ford Methodist church as usual on
that day and seemed in the best Of
spirits. There was nothing out Of the
ordinary about her appearance or
actions, and she went to bed in the
early part Of the evening.
On Monday morning, when the
family assembled at breakfast, So
phic did not appear, and one of the
younger children was sent to call her.
In moment the little one came run
ming to the head of the stairs.
'Mamma, she cried, Sophie dead"
The mother rushed to the room Of the
child. They found Sophie lying in
an unconscious state upon the bed.
The body was not cold, but there was
no outward indications Of life. Dr.
a. l.. Tuttle was called, and upon his
arrival he used every known method
of restoring Sophie, but without sue
cess. lie said, however, that she was
not dead, but in comatosc condition.
lie could do nothing but give orders
that she be watched and that he be
called upon the slightest change in
her condition.
From Monday until Friday Sophie
had constant attendance, and several
attempts were made to rouse her, but
she could not be awakened. On Fri
day morning the condition Of the girl
was seen to be changing. She was
breathing and showing signs of life.
An eyelid huttercd and dropped again.
Her nostrils dilated bit, and along
toward noon she opened her eyes.
Nourishment was brought and soon
she was able to talk. She related
wonderful tales of strange visions that
had come to her during the trance.
She had seemed to be transported to
the world on high. Her ears had
been filled with strains of music and
her eyes dazzled by the beautiful sights
she saw. "Oh, mamma" said the
girl as she was telling what she had
seen. II must have been in heaven"
DR.. Tuttle was at the bedside by
the time the little girl mad thoroughly
awakened and examined her to find
That she was in q normal condition,
Her heartbeat was full and regular,
and while she showed slight ezhaus-
tion, that was all. She improved
rapidly and soon went about the house
as bright and clipper as ever. Last
evening the little girl had entity re-
covered her normal condition and
showed no signs Of her long trance.

She Killed Her Husband But May Get a
Pension.

1t is not unlikely that the pension
Office may shortly grant a pension to
woman who killed her husband, who
was Union soldier, and through
whom she may receive The bounty Of
the government. The story is a
strange one, and has been thoroughly
developed by the examiner who has
the same in charge, and who, it is un-
dcr>tood, is strongly in favor Of .giv-
Ing the woman pension.
Away out in North Dakota, beyond
Fort Stevens, there lived, until some
months ago, an cx-Union soldier who
had married a half bred Indian wo-
man. They cultivated farm and
were living prospcrously enough.
There were four children in their
family the youngest Of which was a
baby but few months Of age. The
husband was man Of violent temper
and givcn'to strong driuk One day
he rode up to the house and, dis
mounting, pokcd six shooter under
his wife 5 nose, saying he wanted din
ncr and he wanted it -- quick.
With the baby in her arms she hur-
ricd to comply with the demand of
the man infuriatcd by liquor. lie
followed her with the revolver level
cd toward her. She laid the baby
aside and resortcd to rusc to cs-
cape from the house and ran to the
field, where the hired men were work
ing. The men we're too cowardly to
60 to the house, and when the hus-
band saw his wife across the meadow
he took the baby in his arms and
mounting his horse, galloped toward
her, brandishing his weapon. AS he
ncarcd his wife he threw the baby on
the ncwlyo plowed ground and called
her to come to him.
AS she approached he kicked her in
the breast and then as he pointed his
pistol at her his horse reared and he
was thrown t. the ground. The half
breed Indian wife saw that the men
in the field were frightened and she
sprang on her husband, threw the pis-
tol out of his reach, and as he strug-
gled to grapple her she frightened the
leather strap he wore about his neck
TO hold his watch. AS he tried to
grasp her she drew the strap tighter
and held it calling for help. When
his struggles ceased she picked up the
baby and ran to the house. Then
the hired men went over to take
closer look at the farmer aud found
that he was dead. All these facts de-
ve!eped 9. the co-oHeT'5 inquest.
When the case came to the pension
Office recently and Commissioner
Evans wss told by an examiner that
he ought to pension q woman who
had killed the soldier through whom
she would receive the bounty Of the
government he was amazed at the
suggestion, :but when he had heard
the story Of the tragedy Of that North
Dakota farm be was pretty well con-
vinced that the examiner was right.
The pension has not yet been granted,
as the case has not been fully made
out, but there is little doubt that the
half f-breed Indian widow will soon be
receiving quarterly allowance from
the government.-W Washington Star.
