ANIMAL Convention 5. &. T. W.

Every energy is being put forth by
tha South Carolina Christian Tenn
peranee Workers to make the coming
convention at Chester on the 18th to
21st of September q success, and
judging from the work that has been
accomplished the past year, there is
no reason why this fourth convention
should not be it's best. There is
nothing that comes closer to our
home life than the temperance cause,
and if true temperance could reign,
it would be the means of a wider
spread of mission work, for what man
can be interested in the cause of mis-
sions and the spread of the gospel
and at the same time spend his time
and money in 8 grog shop? What
woman can be interested in sending
the good tidings when her heart and
mind are worried and fretted by a
besotted husband or dissipated Off
spring? What woman can give OF
her means to forward missions when
her little ones cry for bread and are
pierced by winters cold blast, all on
account of intemperance in the home!
Giving and working under such cir
cumstances (and they are so numer
ous) is as irksome as climbing rocky
steep unsssisted. Intemperance is
the tap root that is sapping away the
life and energy Of our race, and it
must be cut in twain by the Chris
tians Of our land before a general
spread and giving of missions will
come. A church member who loves
his dram is dividing his gift for mis-
sions between the church and the
dispensary, is why SO many are op-
posing prohibition and missions,
Knowing that the facts l have stated
are true, it seems to me that every
woman in South Carolina should
push Oh this convention with her
every energy, bring our most gifted
men and women to the front and
pray earnestly that they may be
inspired to speak words that will
arouse our people, not only our State,
but our nation. Come to the conven-
tion, it will give you inspiration OF
which none ever get too much. We
need your presence, so encourge US
by going, Go see what those already
at work have done, and present your
selves living sacrifice on the altar
of temperance. 1t is the little drops
that make the mighty ocean. Will
the reader of this be one to let fall
drop to form this mighty ocean OF
temperance which will some day
spread over our land and purify its
whiskey and tobacco tainted souls,
that will bring the haven to the
heart and when it's mighty billows
roll back how delightful will we all
be to walk upon the sands made
white by the labors of the Christians
of our land. Help hasten the day
when this shall no longer be beau
tiful picture, but a blessed reality

ing day he sent for Senator Carter,
of Montana, whose term was about
to expire, and there was protracted
conference at the white house. On
the last day, just as the river and
harbor bill was being taken up for
consideration, Senator Carter arose
and addressed the senate. He began
in a moderate manner, but grew
more earnest as he spoke. 1t finally
dawned on the senate that a set
speech was being made and no river
and harbor bill yet voted upon.
Efforts were made to interrupt
Senator Carter, but, under the rules
of the senate, there is no time limit
to debate, and nobody could stop him.
He talked until noon, the time for
final adjournment, and thus killed the
big bill. President Mckinley did not
want to have $6O,OOO,OOO appropriated
for that bill, nor did he want to veto

Carter disposed of the BILL and, Q

The postal department has issued
bound book of receipts for rural mail
carriers. which resembles in general
way checkbook, each page containing
a receipt and a stub, with a perforated
line between to facilitate separation.
The book is kept by the carrier, and
the stubs show the disposal he made
of the money intrusted to him by the
patron who holds his receipts. He is
always supplied with blank applica-
tions, which the patron fills out him
self and gives him with the money.
The carriers receipt in this manner
becomes the patrons voucher, showing
that he has given the carrier his money
and his application; the stub becomes
the carriers voucher that money and
application have been given to the
postmaster, and that money order
has been made out in accordance
herewith, and the postmasters vouch-
er is found in his own money order

order he has drawn is preserved. The

In an action for damages by a boy
twelve years of age for injuries re-

violation of a statute prohibiting the
employment of children under fourteen
years of age, the owner of the factory
sought to defend the action on the
ground that the boy had waived the
protection of the statute by remaining
at work. But the supreme court (New

the facts the boy had been put to work

Manufacturing in Massachusetts.

Massachusetts, is one of the States
that puts out statistics that have un-
usual value FROM their thoroughness
and completeness. The figures for
manufacturing industries for 1900 re-
late to 4.645 industrial establishments.
OF these only S.83 per cent. are con-
trolled by trusts. so more than 80 per
cent. of the plants still maintain their
independence and are managed by in
dividual enterprise. This calls atten-
tion to the fact that the staple in
dustries OF Massachusetts and for the
greater part of New England have not
been much affected by the trusts. The
leather and cotton goods industries are
the staples in Massachus etts. The es-
Adjustments reported represent an in
vested capital Of s456,000,000. They
use $455. OOO.O worth Of stock and
made goods worth 100000 900. All Of
these figures mark an increase over
the similar figures for the previous
year. The total amount OF wages pait
amounted to 1857 0oG,o 900. which wa!
received by $4,000 people. 254.0o'
1T whom were men and 10000 women
The establishments reported are not al
that are engaged in manufacturing il
the state. The estimate n that tn
.otal value of the manufactured pro
ducts in Massachusetts in 1900 wa
$1.oa6, 71:.655. OF which $4,000, 90
