one of the best evidences of the SUI
periority Of the Lackawarna railroads
dining car service was shown yester-
day by a traveller on route from New
York to ST. Louis on vestihuled train
No. 3, due in this city at l.55 p. m.
Or. G. II. Goodman, a prominent and
influential citizen of st. Louis, was
the passenger. He had taken dinner
on the train, and afterwards voluntar-
lily handed the conductor Il note, which
read as follows:
After many meals on dining cars
during the past forty years. ! have
never eaten one so neatly served, so
we'll cooked. so satisfactory in every
way, as the lunch today. This is my
'rst trip over this road and it will not
pc my last. I like to tell of n good
hing when I have found it,"
This Is only one OF the daily express
iions of approval heard along the line.
md is an evidence that nothing is too
good for Lackawanna patrons.

MODERN MISERS.
Men Who Starve Themselves
to Accumulate Money.

There is certain fearful fascination
about the stories of the misers of the
past The money they accumulated was
Of no more practical value to them than
the trinkets stolen and secreted by some
magpie or jackdaw. They hid it from
the sight and use Of men and in silence
and secret gloated over the useless
wealth. To gather it they lived on
crusts or offal, grudged clothes to cover
them and fire to warm them, lived
starved lives and in not few cases died
Of starvation. That was the old-time
miser. The modern miser resembles
this man Of the past in the particular
that he frequently dies Of starvation

Colonel Oscar F. Long, U. S. A, is to
be succeeded by Depot Quartermaster
of the Army by Colonel Crosby P. Miller.
The Secretary of War has Just issued an
order to that effect, and Colonel Miller
is en- route here from Washington. Col
onel Long has held the place in question
for about six years. When the Spanish
war broke out the Office became impor-
tant, because of the millions of dollars
worth of supplies that had to be pur-
chased for the army. There have been
rumors of scandals in the suartermas-

friends insist that they have nothing to
do with his being relieved from the du-

Mills Win
Effort: to Extend the Liability for
Damages Voted Down.

Specisl to Grsenvills News.
Columbia, Jan 74-Ths first
fight today on factory egisIation
resulted in decisive victory in
favor OF the proposition to leave
the cotton factories alone. The
frat bill was that which sought to
extend the liability under the fel
low servant law to cotton mills a.
with railroads. Mr.. Prince of
Anderson asd Hr. Morgan of
GresnvilIo argued against the bill.
Josh Ashley Of Anderson made .
strong fight against interfering
with cotton mills and had . sharp
colloquy. The vote was two to
one against the bill. The Andsr.
son and Gresnvills delegation.
voted against ths bill; Spartan
burg generally voted for the liza
bllity bill.
The house refused to kill tho
lien law after considerable discus
sion.
Mr.. Rucksr offered bill pro,
viding for board to equaIize the
taxation Of mill property passed to
third reading. The boaad shall
consist of one man from each
county to be appointed by the
county board of equalization. Tn.
effort to include banking corpor.,
stions failed.
The house committee, it is said
will report favorably on the Lever
bill To reduce the hours of labor
in cotton mills from eleven to ten
hosr, thus cutting six hours per
week.

We commend to the genera!
assembly ior incorporation in any
child labor law which may be
passed the following section from
labor law proposed by Mr.. d 4
TonpkinS, of Charlotte, the
well, known mill engineer and
cotton manufacturer: -. Auy
parert putting any of his children
in Il mill and living on the proceeds
of their labor without working
himself, or doing less work than
is adequate to his own support,
shall be punished ss avagrant and
for one year after his conviction
the earnings OF tho children may
be paid to the mother, or, if she
be nOt living, to the children
themselves. " Mr.. Thompkins calls
such parents "vsmpire," and they
deserve the name. They are re-
prOach to civilization and the leg
islation proposed against them is
none too severe. 1t will be OBJ
served that it comes from a man
closely y identified with the building
and operation of mills. The
