BURGLARY AT NORTHFIELD.
Thieves Got into the Postfficc and q
Meat Market.

Northfield. July 22.-BurElars were in
town last night and entered the postoffiCe
and the Kimhall meat and vegetable mar
ket " hen Postmaster G.. II. Richmond
came down to the Office early this morn
ing, he found the glass broken out of tha
transom over the back door and further
disCovo red that drawers had been broken
into and their contents handled. that Il
quantity of postage stamps was taken,
the eNact amount of which he could not
ascertain. and that the small change III
the money drawer had been taken, in
amount probably not exceeding $40.
A few days since the glass in the two
upper panels of the front door of tho
Kimball market were accidentally brok-
en-, The hoies were temporarily closed
with half inch boards nailed across on
the inside. The burglars entered the
markot by prNing off these boards. The
proprietor discovered them off when he
made his appearance in the morning and
later found his cash register outside the
buildiugI 1t had been pried open and re-
lieVed of its contents. which was about
q pennies, the remaining cash having
been placed in tho safe at the closing time
last night No marks were visible of any
attempt having been made on the safe,
nor were there any signs of the big vault
in the postof'ice having been tampered
with.
The officers are entirely without a clue
and it will probably be forgotten like
many another similar case of lawless-
ness from which the public has suffered.

MODEL MANUFACTURING CITY
Millionaire Will Found One in
North Carolina.

1t is reported in New York that
George w. Vanderbilt has acquired a
large track of land between Hender'
sonville and Brevard, N. c., about
thirty miles from Asheville, and will
shortly commence the construction of
model manufacturing city, all OF
which will be completed and ready for
occupancy before any one will be per-
mitted to settle in the new city.
To word a perfect city will be ere
ated and given over to habltation as a
ready made article.
If Mr.. Vanderbuilt carries out these
plans in their entirely, making a
"model manufacturing city, in all re-
spects, he will do a great work for the
laboring world by giving an example
of the reign of better conditions, where
the wrongs that Cypress will be absent
and where ideal conditions and rela-
tions between labor and capital will
prevail. There will probaly be no
need there fora child-labor bill; for,
in model city," no child will be shut
up to work the young days away in
ignorance and starvation of mind and
muscle. There will, of course, be no
strike: for labor and capital, in a
"model manufacturing city" will be
mutually fair and just in their treat
ment of each other: the wages paid
will be en- liberal and just scale: the
work done for this salary, will be faith
full and of the best quality. The man
who works and the man who employees
the workmen will recognize their mu-
tual interests and will respect these
mutually. There will be no suffering
from hunger, no death from poverty S
neglect; no breaking hearts, under the
hardships of a life of oil,-in this
"model city'-All this. OF course, is
supposed to be what Mr.. Vanderbilt
thinks constitutes a model CITY,"
For by the blessed magical power OF
money, he can make this Arcadia pos
slble, and a reality; or by the oppres-
sive power of this same "lucre" he can
erect and other busy manufacturing
city in the beautiful mountains of North
Carolina, where suffering people will
toll under the blue fair skies; and little
children will work and fade aud die,
where now the viOlets bloomin millions
and the health-giving mountain
breezes rustic through the trees that
have never been smoke-begrimed.

WARS ON CONVICT CAMPS.
Investigation of Lessees' Illegal
Acts Ordered.

Governor Terrell has ordered an in
vestigaton of the misdemeanor con-
Wet camps of Georgia because of evil
dence presented to him that the camps
are hotbeds of brutality. Complaints
have been reaching the governor of
shocking outrages perpetrated in these
camps, and he issued an order for an
investigation which, if faithfully car
ried out, will give the lease system
black eye.
The camp to be first investigated is
that of Breach Bros, in OglethOrpe
county. The governor, in his order.
makes the following charges against
this camp:
l. The cruel and inhuman whipping
of Devereaux Burdette, Charlie Col.
Inns, B. Moon, Charles Rucker, H
Webb, Joe Williams, and other con-
vlcts therein confined.
2. The inhction of punishment upon
oonvicts by persons unauthorized by
law.
3. The failure to provide transpor-
tation for discharged convicts who
were received in said changing from
other counties.
4. The failure 60 allow good time to
convicts who we're entitled to same
under the law.
5. The failure to provide proper
food, clothes, Tobacco and sleeping
quarters as required by law and said
rules,
The statements in the specifications
it is alleged, convey no idea OF the
brutalities practiced. 1t is alleged
that the convicts have.been almost cut
to pieces by whips, and that they are
huddled together at night like so many
! brutes.
1t is also charged that scores of con-
vlcts who have served their terms are
! being detained IN practical slavery.
The governors order has caused a
sensation, as many prominent men IN
Georgia are engaged in leasing con-
victs. Edward McRee, a member OF
| the house runs a convict camp and he
has been charged by grand jury with
! holding men in servitude.

A Hat Trust.

The Louisville Courier-J Journal
DEM says: There is hat trust as
we'll as a steel trust, or at least there
is trade agreement among the lead
ing manufacturers by which the prices
of hats. bonnets and hoods, are put up
about &c 2-3 per cent. above what an
imported article would sell for. A
hat that cost S. all over the United
States at retail is matched by an
equally good article sold in Canada at
So, and so on and so on. On all articles
of clothing the robbery is stupendous
and the clothing trade comes next to
the steal and iron in value.
