cious of those popular diversions which for
a long time have been under the ban in
most of the Southern states-is now on
in South Carolina, and particularly in
Charleston From now on until the close
of the holidays cooking mains will be in
full blast. The sport will attract birds
and visitors from all parts of the South,
and thousands will be won and lost.
With the Christmastide each year comes
the famous fights between cocks bred in
South Carolina against Georgia and North
Carolina birds. The mains are pulled CT
within few miles of the city and hun
dreds of sporting men will wager money
on their choice. A number of fights have
already been pulled off between local binds,
but the big battles will not be fought I'M
til this week, when South Carolina cocks
will meet those from North Carolina. The
birds are now being trained.
In former days bear batting and dog
fighting were INDUCED in here, and men
now in middle life remember seeing the
bears and the dogs going with their keep
ers to the ground at Acabee Ferry. With
the decline of these savage sports, cock
fighting maintained its prestige.
The early English settlers of Charleston
are responsible for the introduction of this
sport into South Carolina.
The mode of fighting is usually in what
is known as "mains," where a number of
birds are matched, within two ounces of
weight. A certain sum is wagered on each
battle by the owners Of the cocks, and a
larger sum on the odd fight. No prize
fighter training for match receives great
er care than the cocks preparing Tor
main.
Before being thrown into the pi. all
cocks are heeled with gaffs, from two to
three and one-half inches long. They are
hand-wrought out of silver steel al1 timely
tempered. The adjustment upon the butt
of the spur is regarded by cookers as fine
art and certain 'heelers' become famous
for proficiency and command big money
for their services. An umpire and judges
are appointed at every main, and the lex
scripta of the pit is rigidly enforced.
Each cock has handler in the pit, just
as each horse has his jockey on the race
track, who disengages when entangled or
when hung by his gaf in his antagonist.
At the word go" the cocks are turned
loose or thrown at each other and then
handlers step aside and the battle is on:
The fight is determined by the death OF
either of the cocks, or his inability to
fight any longer, in which event he is
counted out by the judges.

TANGIER, Dec. 29.-The slave trade of
Morocco grows less year by year as France
extends her military power over the sandy
regions to the south of the sultan's do
minions. Formerly the terrors of the
southern slave route could be learned from
slaves who had come that way to be sold
at Marrakesh or Fee. They told of chill
dren from the far interior, too young to
walk, exchanged for rock salt by the tribes
of the interior and dying by hundreds in
the panniers of the trader en- route.
France entered Algeria and slowly
pushed her way south, east and west.
The occupation of the GASES of Tuat cut
off the caravans from that direction. and
when Timbuctoo was occupied another bar
was put up against the traffic IN humanity.
Hence the supply of captives from the in
terror has so gone down that the result
in Morocco is twofold-the price is higher,
and the Moor treats his captives better
Indeed, there is seldom much to complain
of in the treatment. Compared with the
poor freemen in this poverty-stricken land,
the slave is sleek and comfortable as
rule. True, the Moor may kill him or
starve him as easily as he wishes, but he
