Bodies of Women Are Found Along
Streams.
Columbia, S. c., June 1S.-While a
party of men were looking over raft
at Mt. Joy, Union county, on the
banks of the Pacolet river, yesterday, a
xruesome find was made. The body OF
a woman was discovered on the raft.
It is supposed to be that of one Of the
victims of the recent food, which swept
away so many homes at Clifton. Judg-
ing from the appearance OF her mar
she was about so years old. The body
was badly bruised, and as there We're
no means of identifying it, the body
was buried on hillside near the river.
Any one desiring information about
her can obtain it by writing j. Y.
Sprouse, Mt. Joy, S. G.
Another CHASTITY find was made near
Jonesville. 1t was the body of wom-
an and was found in the bottoms. All

body. 1t was q CHASTITY sight and seem

SOUP AT s16 A PLATE.
Peacocks' Tongue Mt $50 and other
Extravagant Dishes.


Extravagant Dishes.
From the New York World.
The most expensive dish in the world
consists of the fat legs of four small
birds, rare and expensive, no bigger
than juvenile pigeons, inclosed in a
quail, which is placed in a teal, it
self wrapped inside a capon.
A goose, the latest and tenderest OBJ
tainabIe, and a fine turkey also play
important parts in the preparation of
this dish, but the four small legs from
the inside of the quail are alone served
up, the other birds being employed to
add their flavor to that of the four legs,
in which duty they are assisted by
liberal basting with rare wines.
This dish is said to be sufficiently de-
licious to soften the heart of the most
callous epicure but, of course, the great
est thing in it's favor is its prohibitive
cost. It is occasionally served in a GER
tain London restaurant, and single
order costs about $50.
Peacocks' tongues form the basis of
another fashionable dish, and, though
they are sufficiently expensive for most
people, it is really the things added to
them and their treatment which makes
the dish so costly.
It takes a dozen peacocks' tongues to
make a dish large enough to be clearly
visible to the naked eye, and such a
$50 to a dinner bill, according to what
other de1icacies were employed in
creating" the dish
Turtle fin soup is yet another choice
course calculated to allure a man into
the bankruptcy courts, though its cost
is comparatively trifiing, enough to
cover the bottom of a soup plate being
obtainable in many hotels for the mere
bagatelle of $40, unless it has been elab-
Grated, as it often is, when it occasion
ally runs up to $40 per head on the
bill.
Probably the most expensive soup to
be had is that for which the talented
we were almost writing inspired
chief of a Paris restaurant is noted.
Much mystery Gas is usual with French
dishes) exists as to what 1t is made
of, but one of the chief constituents is
woodcocks' legs, stewed very gently
until the flesh falls off the bone. The
resultant liquor is then allowed to cool,
equal portions of two wines are added,
and then IL is ready to be prepared In
all earnestness. 1t costs SIG every
time.
A dish invented by a Paris chef In
honor OF dinner given to an actress
by some of her admirers consisted OF
the most delicate portions Of thirty
geese, ten turkeys and some wookcocks,
prepared in a sauce obtained by stew
ing the tender meat Of four slrioins OF
beef and leaving only the turkey ele-
ment 10 be served up with truffles,
The cost Of the course was $500. not be-
cause OF what II consisted, but OF all
that was wasted In its preparation.

WILL HURT THE STOCKS.
But This Injury Wrought by the
Disaster VIII Be Fleeing.

Disaster VIII he F1eeI1uRs
Columbia, S. c., June ia gentle
man who is thoroughly familiar with
the cotton mill situation In South Car
DINA yesterday made the following
statement:
zone small class liable to suffer from
the Spartanburg storm are those who
have stock in the injured mills and
who may become unnecessarily
alarmed Mill men unite in saying
that a sympathetic depression in South

disaster. This will not scare persons
in the least informed as to general mill
conditions and values, but there are
some, especially women, who have
small holdings and know nothing of
what their certificates actually repre-
sent. In Spartanburg yesterday l
heard of a woman who had jumped to
the conclusion that her Pacolet stock
was almost valueless, who had been so
informed by some business men and
who was talking frantically about SELL
ing. But I also heard three mill presi-
dents, all of them disinterested, ex-
press the deliberate opinion that Paco-
let stock has an actual value to-day of
from $40 to $3.50 at least, and it may
have considerably more. In the cases
Of such ably and 'conservAtively man
aged properties as Pacolet and Clifton,
even their high quoted market values
have never reached a representation of
the real assets of the two companies.
Hence it is possible for immense parts
of the plants to be wiped out and still
enough remain to give the stocks good
values
Clifton has been hurt more than
Pacolet, Pacolet having it's fine Georgia
mill practically intact, but it should be
remembered that Clifton is one of the
strongest concerns in the South, and
with a backing of great power in the
North. When the work of reconstruc-
ton has gotten under way, it will be
found that far more of this plant is
left than is popularity supposed, and
that it's shares will have very sub
stantial values. Holders of either or
these stocks would be foolish indeed
to sell until fully informed. 1t is only
the small holders who are in danger.
There are always a few sharks ready
to take advantage of the nervous and
i'll informed in panicky times.
80 far as the mills which have not
suffered are concerned, their stocks
ought to be strengthened rather than
otherwise, though the contrary is prob
able. The misfortunes of the large
sufferers relaXes the tension in the
labor situation in many other mills ana
the temporary cessation of output by
the two great mills may make the mar
ket a little sitter in the lines of goods
they manufacture.

Dead Body of an Old Man I'm the

Higgston, Ga, June 1S.--The little
daughter of Mrs. Morrison, who lives
about one mile northeast of Higgston,
while out looking for their cows late
yesterday evening, discovered the dead
near their home. She lost no time in
reporting it to the authorities, and the
coroner, DIR. Palmer of Alley, was noti-
fed by wire. Dr. Palmer came down
early this morning and on investigation
found the body to be that of Jake Kent
colored said to be 20 years old. He
impannelled a jury, and after hearing
all the available evidence, rendered this
verdict: That the deceased came to his
death from natural causes, attributed
to heart failure, as there was no evil
dence of foul play.
