Clothing Factory.

The stockholders of the \ Der
deem clothing company met at the
city hall Tuesday night and organ
lied by spreading the charter on
the minute book. electing a board
OF seven directors, and adopting
bylaws. Hon Jas. Nj Acker was
made chairman and g j Leftwich
Esq, occupied the scretary's chair.
The subscription list of stockhold
ers was read and polled, about
$4,000 Of the $4,000 of stock sub
scribed being present.
Messrs. ID. w. Houston. Walker
Fowler and G. }. Leftwich were
appointed committee for nomi-
nation of board OF directors, who
reported DR.. w W. Watkins. DR.
w. O.. Sykes, j. Il. Thrasher. L. )
Cunningham. c. L. Rather, j. NJ.
Acker and H. j. b. Lam, and
they were unanimously elected.
Mr.. j X. Thrasher, one Of the
largest subscribers to the Aber
deem company and the holder OF
considerable stock i'm Il similar en-
terprise at Corinth, made prac-
tical talk in which he emphasized
the benefits of clothing factories
to towns, declaring that their IN
PRODUCTION into Corinth had more
than doubled property values in
that place in the last decade, rs
well as paid large dividends to the
investors. He stated that the plant
here would employ more than two
hundred operatives with salaries
ranging from S3 to 50 per week.
The Aberdeen factory is capital
lied at $4,000 of which $4,000
has been subscribed and the re-
mainder is in demand. The board
! of directors met Wednesday morn
ing and elected j. Il. Thrasher

and treasurer. A site for the fac
tory was selected at the corner OF
Maple and Washington streets and
II tSo-story building, 50xl00 feet

contract can be let.
This clothing factory, doubtless
is the initial of extensive manu-
featuring enterprises TO be estab-
lished in Aberdeen and represents
only a very small per cent. of the
capital lying idle in the town.

A RIOT IN TITLES.
Elaborate Classification Of Rank
That Rules In Denmark.

Elaborate Classification Of tank
That Rules In Denmark.
The Danish classification of rank Is
q very elaborate one. built up OF Of
fees, orders. birth and titles, writes J.
Brochner in Danish Life In Town and
Country" There are nine classes,
which are divided into as many as Il
dozen subsections, each of which may
again comprise a score or two Of diff
ferent titles and offices. yet there was a
complaint in one of the Danish papers
the other day that it was anything but
complete.
Holders Of titles have to pay an an
nual tax ranging from $44.5O in the
first class to a misery 1888 in the
ninth. There are about a score of diff
ferent titles. several of which are again
divided into real and Others" the
'reaI' being several shades better than
the Others"
These titles are always used in CON
%versatiOn, as, for example, "WM not
the chamberlain have a cigar?' or
"Mr. Chamberlain, will you not have
u cigar. AIlu ~ icluiIcO u AoHav
clear head and a good memory to give
everybody his due in a large party,
especially as some Of them are deco
rously long, as, for instance, geheime-
conferentsraad.
Then there are ladies, who generally
have 'inde" (the English "ess") added
to their husbands title or Office. A
colonel's wife, for instance, is called
Oberstinde. and the wife of the cham
berlain to the king kammerherreinde,
and so forth.
But the subtleties of the additional
titular address in writing even excel
the verbal form. That persons of the
first rank are "excellencies" is only
natural, but gentlemen Of the second
class have on documents addressed to
them a high well born" prefiXed to
their title and name, and those of the
third class a high and well born" l
much regret that I cannot explain why
the addition Of this "and' should
somewhat detract from the value Of
the same words.
Gentlemen of the ninth class are ad.
dressed as well honorable and well
Bred" which is, l think. almost more
than they could expect for their 1898.
