Professor Balm suggests the expla-
nation that laughter is provoked by
what he calls a degradation, meaning
that we laugh when we all at once per-
ceige something degrading, a trickeryi
weakness, or a pettinass IN some
person OF object which we respect as
when the infrmaties Of human nature
disclose themselves Ia a person Of inn
portance, or when some trivial affair
occurs ia some solemn ceremony to
drag rs down, on when the wrong side
Of come great thing OF some great man
Is exposed. ''The occasion Of the
laughter IS the degradation Of a digni-
fed person OF interest, under circum-
stances that do not excite a stronger
emotion. Tn oil theories Of laughter
the more or less important fact is
marked that the feeling Of
the ludicrous Al ises when something
which werespected before is presented
in a mean light; for we have no reason
to laugh when something that we al
ready regarded as such is depicted as
tricky aud vile. The Pathfinder.

Wet camps the convicts be examined

house. and some Of the fights will be re-
newed there, notably the fight to restore
the railroad commission appropriations.
Most Of the time was consumed in
discussing the item of s25O.OOO year
for pensions Of Confederate veterans.
II was charged that there are frauds in
those pensions, and that some persons
get in the pension rolls who are not en-
titled to be there. The effort to strike
out or reduce the appropriation failed
almost unanimously and the Confed-
crate soldiers will get about is cents n

MANUFACTURING IN THE SOUTH

There is great activity in the south
ern cities in manufacturing.
| Charlotte, n. C, will in the early
spring see active progress in building
two new cotton factory settlements
for the manufacture of the finer grades
of goods. which will bring the number
of mills there to fourteen, represent
| ing an investment of more than 81
O0O. 900. exclusive of five vclothing fac
tories employing 1.600 operatives 9th
| er industries to be added to the city
are a new plant for the manufacture
of cotton seed oil mills. cotton mill
machinery and supplies, plant to
manufacture heating apparatus and
plumbing equipments, and others for
which plans have not been completed.
Then, again, continued advance is
being made at Richmond, one of the
south's oldest cities, but as vigorous
with new life as some of its younger
competitors. The latest announce
ment from that quarter is that the
Richmond Locomotive and Machine
Works have received such a great
number of orders from all parts of the
United States and foreign countries
that it has found it necessary to in
crease it's capital from 81 100000 to
81 500, 900, and is working day and
night 1 500 men on a schedule which
promises to continue certainly eight or
nine months. if not indefinitely longer.
This company is also installing $50
900 worth of new equipment il its boil
er shops.
At the yards of the Trigg Shipbulid-
ing ompany, in the same city, great
activity also prevails, with the keel
of a government cruiser to be laid
next week, the Stockton shortly to be
turned over to the government. the
Shubrick nearly ready for her build
ers' trial and a revenue cutter APP
preaching the launching state.
The power house of the Virginia

DIR. FLOWER IS STILL
IN CHIHUAHUA
He Takes the Revelations of His AL
legged Schemes Serenely, and Goes On
His Way, Devising More Schemes.

The New York papers continue to
devote columns of space to the affairs
of DR.. r. c. Flower, the mining specu-
lator who is said to have duped num-
erous fasteners out of something like
a million and a half dollars.
1t is very evident, however, that the
New Workers have no charge on which
they could convict the doctor for they
are making no effort to apprehend him.
He has been in Chihuahua, Mexico,
since he left New York in December.
and has mining schemes galore on
there and is said to be bringing east
ern people down at his expense to buy
his property.
On the other hand DIR. Flower has.
so far as known, sent no denial to re-
flute the stories told in New York. and
is leaving President New of the Ari-
IONA Eastern company to fight it out
alone.
