CANTON: MISS FRIDAY, OCTOBER II. 1000.

a negro hoo-do doctor belon gine
to Louis Finly east of Canton. He
told the sick negro he knew ex-
actly what was the matter with
him and that he had a snake in
his stomach and he could get it
out. He went to the woods got a
snake and some emitec herbs,
blind folded the patient, chopped
the snake to pieces and placed it
in a recepticle, gave the patient
the emetic and as soon as the
stomach discharged it's contents
over the snake he took the blind
from the patients eyes and let
him behold the snake. The
patient made rapid and perma-
nent recovery, showing the
power of the mind over the body. |

Building up Industries

Richard H. Edmonds, editor
and general manager of the Man
ufacturers' Record, gives the fol,
lowing interesting picture of the
wonderful progress made by this
country, and the marvellous prob
abilities of the South in the fu-
ture:
"We have entered upon an era
OF business and commercial af-
fairs with which there is
nothing in all our history to com
pare. The revolution through
which we are passing is the most
reaching upon the worlds
affairs that has ever been known.
Before the civil war and after it,
even up to about 1890, we were
busy developing continent.
The opening up to civilization OF
the great west, the building of
about $50, 900 miles of railroad,
which we have done in the last
forty years, the creation of our
vast industrial interests now en-
ploying from 100000 to 1000, |
900 hands, turning out annually |
between $4,000, 900, 600 to 5,OOJ, |
100000 dollars worth of products, |
or about four times the lotal value
of our agricultural products,
were tasks sufficient to employ
our energy and capital. No 9th
r nation ever made such a record
an1 we may well afford to boast
Of what we have done.
But what we have acc ON
pllshed is only an indication of
our future. Until about four or
i've years ago we were not count
ed as factors IN the world'S S COM
nercial affairs, except as an ex-
)ortor of grain. provision and
cotton. To-day we are the dom,
nation power in the worlds in
lustrial activities. We are fixing
he price of every ton of pig iron
md steele rails which the world
8 consuming. 1t matters not
low distant the country, nor how
'reat the undertaking. Ameri.
an iron and steel set the price
7hich all other producers must )
leet or else lose the busin ess. I
"a few years ago we were lln- I
orting an average of about L.
0,OO0 tons a year of iron and
teel. Now conditions are re-
ersed, and we are exporting as
Iuch as ti7e years ago we inn 7

lpturing contracts in Africa and :

GENERAL wHeELeR's FUTURE
He VIII He Retired Soon at His own
Request.

NcIuSns.
WASHINGTON, June 1T is said
at the war department. that General
Wheeler will be given no military assign
ment under his commission az brigadier
general-Of regulars, but that he will be
placed on the retired list within the next
few days. This plan of action, it is said,
is in accordance with an understanding
reached between the president and Gen
eral Wheeler The retirement will be
made upon General Wheelers applica-
tion and is in conformity with the statute
authorizing the president to retire officers
of the army upon their own application
after they reach the age of 62 years. .
General Wheeler was born Sept. 10.
1886. and in the natural course of events
would be retired for age Sept 10 next,
when he will reach the age of GA years,
the statutory limit Of active service in the
army.
The retirement of General Wheeler will
create vacancy in the grade Of brigader
general, which will be permanently filled
by the appointment of one of the officers
of the army who particularly distinguish
es himself in action in Cuba. Porto Rico
or the Philippines. The president is some
what embarrassed in this matter by the
abundance of material to select from. Six
officers are mentioned as having superior
claims for prefermcnt in this direction.
These are Generals Davis, Chaffee,
Hughes, Wheaton, Bates and Schwan. all
of whom have rendered conspicuous mill
tary service. They are all colonels in the
regular army and brigadier generals of
volunteers. There is an impression that
General Davis. military governor of Por-
to Rico, stands the best chance Of seeur-
ing the star.

TIE notice which appeared yes

for the benefit OF the Sunday school
OF st. Andrews Church, turns out
to have been unwarranted, as the
young man, Lester Smith, is the Ii
brarian and secretary of the same,
and acted in good faith toward all
concerned. He says the library
greatly needs replenishing, and as
he had spoken to the leading mem.
bers several times, inrega ard to the
matter, without producing any ac-
tcn, he determined to take the eu-
largement in his own hands. Hence
Mr.. Warner was not advised of his
purpose and was led to make the
statement published. The reAec-
ton on Mr.. Smith, was, therefore.
warranted, and we are pleased
