HOW PRICES HAVE SCARED.

Official statistics on the prices Of
various necessaries Of life in this coun-
try show O steady increase during the
last 1--WE or six years There are seven
groups Of such articles, including
breadstuns, meats, dairy and garden
products. clothing. etc. From Jan. 1,
1891 to Jan ], 1902. the Increase on
the total Of The seven groups was Si5
per cent. The general rate of advance
year by year was about per cent in
1918; the same IN 1889; over IS per
cent. in iSg9-i9oO; decline OF 4 per
cent IN 1901; an increase OF per
cent IN 1912.
The increase an the various groups
Is not uniform. The advance on bread.
stuns Is placed at 70 per cent;on meats
IS per cent; on dairy and garden pro-
ducts, ~ per cent; on other food, .
per cent; on clothing, % per cent: on
metals 10 per cent. and on miscellan-

The unique feature of the situation Is
the fact that Gen, Hampton was a type
OF the public man who had always con-
trolled the fortunes of his state, ex-
cept during the reconstruction era, and
that this whole class has during the
past decade disappeared from South
Carolina, so far as influence In con-

old regime Of which he was so char

In special dispatch to the New York
World from Chester, Pa. the story II
told Of the DEATH at that place OF a
florist, Thomas r, Delahunt. under cir
cumstances that should remind the
public Of the fact that even an ordIn-
airy telephone may become death trap.
The instrument had been out OF or

a sound which he took for signal, he
supposed It had been fixed whereupon
he ''rasped the transmitter a tongue
Of iue flame Immediately shot out OF
the mouthpiece, and the unfortunate
man reeled back into the arms Of
friend. He was gently stretched on the
floor, and "a doctor was sent for, but
when the physician came. he was dead.
II seems that a heavily charged eleo-
trio wire had touched the telephone
wire and conveyed TO II the death-deal-
ing charge. The victim happened to
touch the instrument with both hands
and received the full force Of the cur

while IN the East, contributed to the
Christian Advocate a paper entitled
Mormon Slavery It contained
number OF direct falsehoods concern
Ing the Latter-day Saints, their prin-
ciples ana their purposes. We ex-
posed some Of them at the time. We
then felt little charitable towards the
writer thinking that perhaps he had
been misled by stories told him by
other preachers. But his present atti-
tude, coupled with the position he then
took, shows that he is a wllful libeller
and does not hesitate to utter state

among the bltterest anti.Morm0ns TO
be without any foundation in fact We
need not brand him with the title that
he deserves. II Is patent TO all who
