IMPORTANCE OF IRRIGATION.

Washington, d. c., Sept. "a
The growing demand for water for
irrigation purposes emphasizes the
need Of more detailed information
concerning the results and method:
Of irrigation from artesian and sur
face waters. The census of 1896
showed that the area irrigated from
wells is greatly increasing, and
that the results in moot sections Of
the country are eminently satisfac.
tory. approximately, l36,00C
acres were irrigated in that year
from wells, the value Of the irriga-
ted crops ranging from $50 to
~ 600 per acre.
In the humid states, well lrriga-
tioE is utilized TO supplement the
insufficient rainfall during early
spring and summer. In the west
the water pumped from wells in
snres the home garden and the or
chsrd against total failure through
a rainless season.
In California, Colorado, Louisi-
ana, Florida and several other
states the waters Of flowing arte.
sian wells are successfully applied
to large areas. or are used to aug
ment the shortage in the streams
during the irrigation season. In.
order TO obtain the important facts
relating 10 irrigation from these
sources, the Census Office will soon
send. out inquiries to irrigators
from wells, whose names were re-
ported by the enumerators. As
this list is not complete, the Direc.
tor asks that irrigators who do not
receive these inquiries will send
their names to Mr.. l.. G.. Powers,
Chief Statistician, Census Office,
Washington, ID. c., and blanks
will be mailed to them at once.
IL is requested that all who re.
ceiye these inquiries answer the
same as fully and accurately as
possible, and promptly return to
he Census Office.

Buried in a Glass Coffin.

A corpse in coffin of glass was
carried through the streets of
Raleigh, N. c., on recent Sunday
afternoon. The form Of the dead
man was perfectly visible to the
crowd of curious spectators who
watched the remarkable sight. The
deceased was William Matthews,
probably the wealthiest negro in that
section. His dying request was that
his remains should be encased in a
glass casket and deposited in a vault
so that visitors could see his BODY at
any time. The funeral was deferred
three days in order to carry out his
wishes. The frame of this peculiar
coffin was of heart cedar, while the
sides and top were of solid glass.

or Continental Europe would inter-

and they would have interfered had
it been safe to do SO, just as they
would have interfered in behalf of
Spain in 1898 had they deemed it

the other powers knew it would be a
mighty dangerous thing to give the

Kruger thought he could whip any

they were ten times as disloyal as

Blue Ridge May be Levied on.

1t is very likely that the Blue
Ridge Railroad will be levied on for
taxes at an early date.
The public is generally aware that
the Blue Ridge road owes about
$4,000 in back taxes, which accu-
mulated during the years the road
was in the hands of a receiver ap-
pointed by the Federal Court. The
taxes are due to the State and to the
counties of Anderson and Oconee.
When the road was sold at auction
here last summer Hon. j. E. Brea-
zeale, representing Anderson county
and the State Sinking Fund Com.
mission, gave notice that the back
taxes would be held as lien on the
property.
Since then the purchasers of the
road and the Sinking Fund Com.
mission and the officials of Anderson
and Oconee counties have been Jug.
Cling over the matter, but have never
come to settlement. The railroad
authorities offered compromise by
which the counties would receive
about so per cent of the amount due
them and the State about 338 per
cent, but the offer was refused. Then
the Sinking Fund made the railroad
counter proposition in the nature
of compromise, but the offer was
not accepted. Thus the matter
rests.
When Assistant Attorney General
Gunter was here few weeks ago he
said the Sinking Fund Commission
was tired of waiting and had deter
mined to force a collection of the
claim. The Sinking Fund Commis-
sion will issue an execution against
the road for the collection of the
taxes and send it to Sheriff Green,
OF Anderson, who will levy on the
road, or enough of its property to
satisfy the judgment. Then the
road, it is presumed, will 20 into the
Courts and ask for an injunction re-
straining the Sheriff from selling the
property, and then the question will
be fought out in the Courts.
When Mr.. Gunter was here he
said that as legal advisor of the
Sinking Fund Commission he would
have the execution issued and for
warded at once, but it has not yet
been received here. 1t will probably
be issued as soon as Mr.. Gunter or
Mr.. Bellinger can spare time from
the arduous duties of the campaign
to look after it.
County Attorney Breazeale, in
speaking of the matter yesterday,
said he had been trying to hurry the
matter along and effect settlement
of some kind for the past year, but
that he could not do anything with
out the cooperation of the Attorney
Generals office.-Anderson Mail,
