A New Vegetable.

a new vegetable which is beginning
to appear on American tables some
what resembles Jerusalem artichoke,
and is called the Japanese crosne. 1t did
originally come from Japan, but is now
cultivated rather extensively in France,
from which land of delicate feastiEG
it has reached these shores. Crosnes
are described as being about two inches
long and less than an inch in diameter
at the thickest part. They look some
thing like stubby little spindles. Un-
cooked they are used as garnishes for
salads. and with Il French dressing as
as a salad by themselves. In Japan
they are all picked. When they De-
come known other uses will doubtless
be found for them.-New York Post.

a MetropoIitan Tragedy.


There was tragedy in his eyes. You
see he was very much in love, was
poor, but proud.
He stood facing the girl, his face set
in the lines Of blank despair.
She looked at him calmly. There
was a milo regret in her expression
nothing more.
"You promised me faithfully" he
said. Not alone in his words but in
the intensity Of his voice she could
read q bitter reproach.
II am sorry," she said simply. 81
did not know that yon really cared SO
much. II you would only wait-if
you would only give me little more
time"
! 81 have been waiting longer than
most men could bear. My trust In
YOU was never shaken before. Now
when my hopes have been raised to
their highest pitch"
But lest the reader misunderstood
we will explain that the man was not
in love with the girl to whom he was
talking. She is agent for a laundry
and has promised that his laundry
would be done that afternoon. Her
promise is unfulflled and the man
will not be able to call on The Girl
with whom he is in love.
Sadly he leaves the Office OF the
laundry lingering the two dimes which
will just pay for a telegram to The
Girl, saying that he is i'll. D.

of contention between Charles A.
Halle, gel Moth Wolfe street, and
Joseph Cror.<y, 16 South Castle
street. the latter being charged by
the former with the larceny of Billy,
whose value was placed at $40 by his
owner. Billy was turned over to Halle
and Crowley was discharged.
Billy has a record that is enviable.
He has served on the United States
ships Detroit, Buffalo, Dolphin, Texas,
Annapolis and Atlanta. He was en-
listed as a member of the Atlanta's
crew, being rated as an liable mascot
papers as to his physical fitness hav-
ing been drawn up by the ships sur
geon. He was assigned berth and
treated like his shipmates. Several
times he was severely disciplined for
drunkenness, and once was compelled
to do duty in the engine room for
breaking up Ping pong game be-
tween his superior officers. Once
while Halle was a patient in the Ma
rine Hospital at Norfolk the goat in
some way broke its leg. Thereupon

WANTS HIS MONEY BACK.
Passenger Who Was Held Up by
Floods Sends In Bill.

A dispatch from Columbia says:
The railroad commission is sometimes
taken for a collection agency by peo-
pie who have bills, or who think they
have, against railroad. Wednesday
the board received one from an lnsur-
ance agent in Florence, it being for
SS against the Southern Railway.
The man had a ticket on train No.
36, on the Atlanta and Charlotte
division. When the train got to
Greers it was found that the Tiger
river bridge was down and 1t could
not proceed. Some pressing business
evidently made this particular pas
sengcr want to get to Spartanburg at
any cost, so he took hack at Greers
and drove to Woodruff, expecting to
take the Charleston and Western
Charleston line.
The bridge OF that company across
the Tiger river was also down, so
another hack was taken and Spartan
burg was reach at last, after, many
trials and much tribulation. The
passenger secured a statement from
the conductor of 36 that he had a
ticAc6 tc Spartanburg, and this was
attached to the BILL which follows:
Hotel bill at Greers, soc; hack to
Woodruff, $l.15; Dinner at Wood
ruff, SOC; hack from Woodruff to Spar
tanburg, S5. .25- Total SO.
The passenger says he put on nc
charge for time and trouble. The
commission has not yet taken action
on the bill, but it will hardly do any
more than transmit 1t to the:Southern.

Il False Claim.

The town of Babbington, Il. t.,
seems to he trying to cheat the town
at Fort Mill, S. c., out OF the honor
OF having erected the first monument
IN the United States to the faithful
slaves. The morning papers contain
an account OF the unveiling OF such a
monument there and state that it is
the first OF its kind ever erected. In
1898 Cadt. Samuel E. White OF Fort
Mill erected such a monument in the
park close to the monument of
the old soldiers and the women of the
Contcderacy. 1t is tall, plain marble
shaft, with an appropriate inscription
on The base. On one side OF the die is
an ola negro nanny nursing il white
baby, and on the opposite side negro
laborcr sitting on a log under the shade
OF large tree with an old time scythc
in his hands. On the other two sides
are the family names of the best
known old time darkies.

Money on Cotton

The Spartanburg Journal SAYS cit is
an III wind that blows nobody good. y
ME many of the cotton mills of the
south are in pinch over the matter
ol securing cotton and of making q
profit on their goods at the present
high price Of the raw material, the
Clifton Manufacturing Company has
gone ahead and disposed OF 6 1000 bales
OF cotton on which it is said that the
net profit was al50,oo0. The comp
any had on hand nine thousand bales
or cotton when the flood struck their
warehouses. Six thousand bales we're
saved, while most,of the remainder is
scattered down Pacolet river for miles
below the mills. This success I'm sell
ing cotton at a high profit is especially
fortunate for the mills at this time
IN view Of their recent heavy
losses caused by the flood disaster.

says nearly 700 candidates for admis-
sion to the naval academy are here to
take the examinations. About 200 OF
tho youths have been here for some
time preparing at the preparatory
schools Of WerntZ and Wilmer. The
incoming trains Of the past several
days have brought dozens more.
Nearly every State in the Union is
represented. The candidates have
considerable trouble in engaging
quarters, as the hotels and boarding
houses had but few spare rooms, and
a number Of them have been taken in
by private families. The new fourth
class, which the successful ones will
enter, will number upward of 300
members, and will be the largest class

LEOPARD SEIZED HER.
Nine. Pauline attacked by wild

A di,pacth from Baltimore Wednes-
day says: Nine. Pauline, the famous
trainer Of wild animals, was attacked
Tuesday by an infuriated leopard. If
blood poison sets in she may die. The
leopard is one Of the East Indian ami
mails recently brought to this country.
.Ihe two, one a male, and the other a
female, reached the exposition grounds
saturday evening and were placed in
cage specially prepared for them.
Although the leopards are about four
years old they have never been trained
ana are MS savage as they ever were in
the jungle.
Nine. Pauline who has gained a
reputation as a trainer of lions
panthers and leopards, entered
Gneir cage Sunday for the first time.
she had made a preliminary inspec-
t1on from the outside, and decided
that as the female, the smaller of the
two, be seemed to quietand meek, she
would not have her tied down as is the
custom when trainer enters a cage

male was tied, and when Nine. Pau
line entered he showed a savage spirit.
trying to free himself and to bound
upon her. The female lay quiet In a
corner Of the cage. N
Nine. Pauline again entered the
cage Monday and received slight
claw wound on her hand, But still
the female remained quiet and gave
no evidence Of being displeased by the
visit. When Nine. Pauline entered
cage Tuesday, one OF the guards had
thrown rope around the neck of the
larger leopard and held it, but the
smaller one was not bound. The train
er gave more attention to the larger
leopard, whose eyes glarcd like balls
OF lire and whose restlessness at her
presence was plainly apparent.
The door Of the cage had scarcely
been ck'Sed when the smaller leopard,
crouched in an opposite end OF the
cage, Sprang upon the trainer. Her
hind feet struck Nine. Pauline near
her waist. while the fore claws sank
INTO her neck, and she seized the
man by the throat with her teeth.
BLOOD guShed from all the wounds and
IL seemed as though the woman would
be killed.
Nine. Pauline lost neither her cour-
age nor her self-possession, but at once
began struggling with the animal,
whose furry seemed to increase with
the smell and taste OF human blood.
Pushing the muzzle Of her revolver to
the eyes OF the leopard, Nine. Pauline
discharged blank cartridges in quick
succession, which caused the animal
to release her hold. Several attend
ants seized iron bars and beat the ami.

from IA wounds, retreatcd from the
