MRS. Vanderbilt AS
A IA TERN KEEPER.

A woman played large part in
laying the foundations of the fortunes
of the house of Vanderbilt. The first
Cornelius Vanderbilt married at the
age of twenty, and year later became
captain of small steamboat plying
between New York and New Bruins
wick and back by boat for the plea
sure of the trip. Others, when the
boat reached New Brunswick, got into
stages and were driven across the
State to another steamer, which took
them down the Delaware. OF course
they wanted something to eat, and
Mrs. Vanderbilt saw her opportunity.
New Brunswic hotel, or halfway house
was dirty and i'll kept. Mrs. Wander
bilt suggested to her husband that
they should take the hotel ref it, and
run it in a style that wcu attract
guests.
Vanderbilt leased the hotel but as
the scheme Was his wife's he told her
she might run it and have the profits
Mrs. Vanderbilt overhauled the house
and named it Bellona Hall, after the
steamship Bellona, which her husband
then commanded. The fame of Bellona
Hall soon spread to New York, and
parties were made up to visit it, be-
cause of the excellent fare to be found
there. 1t a'so increased the profits of
the line for which Captain Wander
bilt worked, and his salary was in
creased to two thousand dollars
year.
Mis-. Vanderbilt for twelve years
managed Bcllona Hall, with profits 10
herself and pleasure to her guests.
Her husband, during these years, had
been Studying steamships AID the
chances for profit in TT, file on the
Hudson and along the Sound. His
means were limited, but he had yalu-
abe IDEAS gained from practical ex-
peritnced as a steamboat captain, and
he fit sure that, II he could get the
right opening, he need not fear the
greater wealth Of his rivals. He had
never questioned his wife's manage
ment of the hotel, but he knew she
had saved some money From "The
Best Capital is Capital Wife," in
Success fur 4nyus'.

Do you have feeling of undue fullness
in the stomach, belchings, or sour or
bitter risings? These are but a few of
the symptoms of the diseased stomach.
The worst thing which can be done
for the stomach i'll such case is to take
some tablet or powder which merely
gives temporary relief from discomfort.
The best thing to do is to begin the cure
of the disease by beginning the use of
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
1t cures diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
1t makes the vweak" stomach strong,
and puts the body in a condition of

Czolgosz Electrocuted.

Leon f. Czolgosz, the murderer
of President Mckinley, paid his
life for the horrible crime he COM
mitted in numbering President
Mckinley, Tuesday morning.
The murderer maintained to the
last that no influence was exerted
over him for the commission OF
his crime, that he conceived this
murderous idea, and carried his
plan though unknown to any
other person, and said: 81 killed
the President because he was an
enemy of good people--of the work
ing people. I am not sorry fol
my crime.
Czolgosz was quiet and firm to
the last and died without any feal
or affectation.

ALL SAINTS DAY.

Yesterday was All Saints Day,
and as usual, large number of
persons visited the Cemetery, not
outstanding the fact that the
priest has changed the day of Wis
iting the cemetery. Formerly it
was customary to visit the ceme-
terry in the evening of All Saints
day, but now the visit to the ceme-
terry is made on the morning of
the day of the dead, which will be
this morning, but the people fol-
lowed their old custom and placed
their decorations and other tokens
of remembrance on the graves of
their dear dead on All Saints day,
and also visited the cemetery in
the evening in large numbers.

Bloody Work at Balltown.
Daily Picayune.

News of a bloody conflict be-
tween whites and negroes comes
from Ball Town, in the northeast
corner of Washington parish, in
this State.
Ball Town is very near the Mis-
sissippi State line, in the parish of
Washington, which is in that part
of Louisiana east of the Mississippi
pi River and known as the "Flori-
ds parishes" because, when that
region belonged to Spain, it was
q part of West Florida.
Not many days ago negro man
perpetrated most atrocious as
sault on Mrs. Ball, most respec-
table white lady of Ball Town, and
left her for dead. She recovered
sufficiently to identify the villain,
who had been captured and was
by the vote of the enraged popu-
lace condemned to die at stake.
This act, inspired by an outbreak
of popular fury, was bitterly re-
sented by the negroes of the neigh
borhood, who threatened revenge.
On Sunday the negroes were hol-
ding a religious mass meeting at
country church some miles from
Ball Town. 1t was reported that

liquor was being sold without
license in the vicinity of the
church, and a constable and posse
went to inquire into the matter.
The negroes resented the interior
ence and fired on the posse, when
a fight occurred, both sides being |
armed. 1t resulted in the killing
of three whites and a number OF
negroes, the number being vari-
ously reported. In the course OF
the ARRAY, house in which a
number of armed negroes were en-
trenched, was set on fire and
burnt, causing the death of three
of their women and one child.
The negroes, according to re-
ports, were the aggressors, having
fired on the posse before it arri-
we'd on the ground where the main
trouble took place. 1t appears
that the negroes had been aroused
to high pitch of excitement by
one of their number, named Lott,
who was the leader in instigating
them to retaliate for the violent
putting to death of the negro ra-
visher, and they had come to the
meeting armed aud ready to fight.
Lott was among the negroes who
were killed.
| There is no doubt that the ne
groes have been lately aroused to
aggressiveness by the Incorporate
expressions in both the Northern
and Southern press over the re-
cent Booker Washington dinner
with the President, and doubtless
not few have been told that the
affair means an active revival OF
Federal interference and interven-
ton in their behalf. 1t is not
strange, considering the extrava-
giant statements that have been
made by the press on both sides
concerning the Booker Washing
ton incident, and the long discar-
ded sectional feeling aroused by
it, that the opportunity should
have been seized on by unscrupu-
lous agitators to excite and incite
the negroes to some serious mis-
chievous action, and plentiful
crop of violent disturbances and
races conflicts is to be expected in
the near future.
But whatever position the PEG.
pie and press of the Northern Sta.
ties may take on the subject, the
!. Southern people will be unmoved
but will continue, as in the past
to assert their rights to manage
their own political and social affairs
and to work out the redemption
and salvation of their own country
8 from all the political and socia
n troubles that assail it.

Getting Cotton Mill.
THE RISK IS 100 GREAT
Cotton MiI Man Likes the Town and the
Many Advantages Offered. But Is Afraid
the Necessary White Operatives Could
Not Be Secured to Run Mill.

IT.
Mr.. Fl. G. Bowen. of Providence, r.
l., who is largely interested in cotton
manufacturing in that city and FAN
River, arrived in the city last Tuesday
evening and was piloted over the city
and the many advantages here for a
cotton factory pointed out to him. Mr..
Bowen was very much impressed with
the progressiveness and future outlook
the city presented, but owing to the
lackEof cotton mill labor, white, and
the fact that the securing OF this labor
has never before been tried, he thought
it would be a great risk to build $780,
600 plant here.
Mr.. Bowen Is Of the impression, how
ever, that, we have good place for
small factories such as twine, rope,
knit goods, ETC., and that they would
pay we'll. He left the next morning
for Starkville to visit the states new
textile school, Mr.. Bowen L. very
clever and intelligent gentleman and
we think that after visiting other
points he will be even more impressed
with Greenville and erect some kind Of
a cotton factory here.
