The knell Of the separate waist has
often been sounded yet it still survives
and flourishes. Truly it is too convent

be dispensed with. A charming thea

is of white glace taffeta, stitched in
red and trimmed with Persian silk. In
this model the broad, turnover sailor
collar is of the Persian taffeta with a
wide border the color of watermelon.

And people rich at night, were poor in the

The owners were discouraged, and left the

The trees decayed; the orchards they we're

And of scores of homes, there is barely trace.
So many deserted. 20 many that's left

Southern States into prominence
In the cotton industry is shown
strikingly by the total increase of
capital, from $2O,4l3,414 in 1880
to S62,623,729 in 1890. and to
sl37,l72,56l in 1900. Ten years
ago, and also in 1880, Georgia was
easily the leader among the South
ern States, but it has now been
surpassed by both North Carolina
and South Carolina. in each of
which States the value of products
was not much less than i'm the
States of Maine and New Hamp-
shire, where the industry has been
established for half century; and
the number of hands employed
IN both North and South Carolina
surpass both of these two New
England States. The growth in
Alabima has been also very great
the amount of capital having al
most exactly quadrupled in ten

Two Negroes Shot to Death.

There was a serious riot on the
train on the Southern road com.
ing out of Augusta Saturday night.
1t started in drunken row. Fac
tory people and negroes were en-
gagged and knives and pistols were
freely used. Eight or ten white
men were more or less seriously
shot and half-dozen negroes were
wounded. Two of the negroes, one
named Wyatt Holes and the other
Collins, were arrested in Langley
and locked up. The people be-
came infuriated and although
Sheriff Alderman, of, Aiken, was
present he could do nothing with
the mob.
All OF the wounded white men
were residents of Langley and vi
clnity, and men gathered from the
surrounding country to avenge
them. Crowds gathered during
the evening and at midnight broke
into the calaboose and shot TO
death the two wounded negroes.

Southern Operates the S. c. 4 @. Ex.

Monday night at l2 o'clock
the Southern Railway commenced
to operate the South Carolina a
Georgia Extension Railway, form
erly the 3 Cs, which, as is we'll
known in this section, extends from
Camden to Marion, N. c., a dis
tance of more than a hundred
miles.
An act passed at the last session
OF the Legislature empowered the
Southern topurchase the road, and
many improvements in the ser.
vice will doubtless follow the
transfer of the property. For a
long time the service of the road
has been such that a change of
ownership was greatly desired by
the public.
The most interesting feature in
connection with the deal is the
fact that it is proposed to extend
the road from Marion to Johnston,
Tenn, and thence to the big coal
regions. Before the road was sold
to the Southern work had COM
menced on the extension, and with
the Southern back of the project
this important railroad connection
seems assured.

ever and unless there was arbitra-
iion the strike is destined to go on.
The national board member also
denied that there was any suffering
among the strikers. He said go
far there was no prosecution and
not likely to be any for long

are unit in saying that break
may come any day now. This be-
