The Price of Cool Advanced.

Coal has been selling here at $3.50
per ton, the highest price ever paid for
coal in this country. We suppose this
is the result OF the recent coal strike
1t is said, we believe, that there is a
scarcity Of coal in the eastern markets,
which accounts for the rise in prices
here. Curious people will want to
know how there happens to be a scar
city in soft coal just now, when there
has been no strike in this region? The
price OF $3.50 per ton is nearly as high
rs some towns are paying for anthracite
coal, AMI that too, a long way off,
whereas we are mining thousands of
tons daily almost in hearing distance of
town. There's something wrong some
where

on the market by farmers, but the old
distinction between pasture fed and
grain fed cattle has put the beef on the
market in two classes. Pasture-fed
beef is selling for just half the price
heavy cattle is commanding. When
the market is stripped OF the fan pro-
duction, which will be by January, the
price will revert TO the standard estab-
lished by heavy stock
The class of stock now being sold 10y
the farmers is commanding a price dis
tinctly its own. 1t is almost impossi-
BILE TO get what is deemed flrstclass
beef. Prominent retailers here said
this morning that there had not been
any really flrst-class beef i'm Pittsburg
for three Orfour months, and that good,
prime, granted cattle were scarcer
tlan ever before in the country.
J. d. Blanchard, OF Omaha, who
spoke against the trust last night, when
asked what plans they had to oppose
the combination, declared it vas too
early TO say. They could only wait
and see what the trust would do.

The man on the stage who does the
trick of escaping from firmly tied ropes,
submits TO the bonds with a smile. He
knows he can get out of the ropes that
are being knotted. Put the same man in
the woods and let Indian captors bind
him to a tree for torture and he would
struggle to the last against the bonds.
When the stomach Is diseased there
are bonds being woven every hour about
the organs dependent on the stomach
heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc. The
folly of mankind is to passively submit
10 the fastening Of these bonds with no
effort TO escape until the pain they cause
arouses fear.

DANCE OF THE BEBE CLASS.


The annual May ball of Miss Mar
guerite Stults' dancing school will take
place this evening at the Masonic Tenn
pie. To those who have seen the pre-
vious entertainments given by the ac-
complished young mistress of the
''Bebe Class" it goes without saying
that the affair will be charming. 1t
will be much more elaborate than any
of the former balls, the special dances
being all done in costume towards the
preparation of which no expense or
trouble has been spared. The little
people went through full rehearsal
yesterday afternoon. and the grown
folks that were fortunate enough to be
present were enthusiast site over the
skill and grace of the small dancers
who executed their difficult parts with
the ease of mature years and yet with
that charming abandon that belongs
only to childhood. The programme
for this evening occupies a little less
than two hours, and will be followed
by general dancing. 1t is given in full

Elects Officers.

Triton, Ga, May 21-The Georgia
Saw Mill Association met at the Hotel
Sadie yesterday afternoon, With a good
attendance from three states. l-un-
herman discussed the water supply of
some of the smaller mills, and it was
found that many were not running on
full time on this account.
Negro labor was discussed, and was
reported by the majority of the lum-
bermen as being very scarce. Wages
are good, and the scarcity of labor is
tributed to the hot weather.
After timely discussions from rep
resentatives from the numerous mills
in this and other states, the following
officers were elected for another year:
H. II. Tiff Triton. Ga, president; r.
II. Paul. Waterfowl. Fla, vice presi-
dent, for Florida, w. 3. Stillwell. Sa-
vannah. Ga. vice-presldent. for Georg-
la d. T. Mcclellan, Lumber. S.
c.. president, for South Carolina;
J. ]. l.. Phillips, Triton. Ga, treasurer:
+. c. Harrell, Triton, Ca, secretary.
IL was discussed and considered adj
viseble TO elect a vice-president from
each state. The meeting was an en-
thusiastic one and was in session
until II o'clock last night adiournlng
al $50 until p. IN. for supper. The
next meeting was voted 10 take place

MARIE ANTOINETTE's PEARLS.

The jewels owned by American wo-
men, says an exchange, are quite as
famous as those of royalty. Indeed, in
many cases they are royalty's gems
which the millions of the present day
have brought into the hands of demo-
Gratis.
Among the marvellous gems and jew
els famous the world over owned by
Americans are Mrs. T. Suffern Tailer's
diamond chrysanthemum, sometimes
fetchingly worn at her shoulder; Mrs.
Belmont Tiffany's point lace fans, one
studded with various jewels, the stick
of the other bearing her initials set in
diamonds: Mrs. George w. Wander
bits necklace of 10 diamonds; Mrs.
Frederick w. Vanderbilt's diamond
bodied and ruby-eyed serpent that half
encircles its owner; Mrs. Clarence H.
Mackay's sapphire. the most perfect
and beautiful known in the world, and
Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont's chief treas
ures, her string of pearls, once worn
by Marie Antoinette, and an over
whelmingly gorgeous chain of dia-
monds, seven and half feet in length,
formerly owned by the Empress Cath
crime of. Russia. The pearl jewelry of
Mrs. Perry Belmont formerly Mrs.
Henry Sloane, is the most costly and
beautiful in America, and the jewels
of her niece, Mrs. James Abercrombie
Burden, are noted for their splendor
and bizarrerie.

Manufa curing
Tuskegee Ala, May 21.-After being
the guests of Principal Booker T..
Washington at the Tuskegee Normal
and Industrial Institute to-day, Con-
gresham c. w. Thompson and his dis
tinguished party of visitors left for
Mobile tonight. A telegram was re-
ceived by Mr. Thompson from Secre-
tary of the Treasury Leslie M. Shaw
stating he would soon join the party
on their tour of the state of Alabama.
The day was spent in inspecting the
work of Tuskagee Institutes A large
number of prominent people from va
rious parts of the state have
joined the party here. The visitors
were particularly interested in the work
in the brickyard, the shops and on the
school farm of some 800 acres under
cultivation.
The afternoon was devoted to exer-
cises in the institute chapel. The
students sang plantation songs for the
visitors and congressman Thompson
Littlefield of Maiane. Fuller and
Smith of Iowa, Burney and Brown of
Wisconsin spoke. They commended
the school highly.
The members of the party have ex-
pressed their feeling that this visit
to the South would be of great bene-
fit to them and have farnkly said that
they were surprised at the progress of
the South and the development of
which they have learned in the way
OF cotton manufacturing. The South
/ ern gentlemen who have spoken at
the meetings have said they felt sure
good would come from the visit, and
commend Mr.. Thompson for making
the visit possible.
