MILITARY PUNcTILLo.-The following
true story comes from Vienna under
the title of 1.-The brave lieutenant and
the old ass" and is pretty commen-
tary on the manner in which the
greenest Of officers may, and do, ayenge
insults (often unintentional, but that
makes no difference), offered to their
uniform by possibly wiser civilians.
Two men stood on railway platform
one a vision splendid in uniform, the
other quite an ordinary old gentleman.
The latter stumbled. and in so doing
committed the crime Of treading on
the visions toes. II beg your par
don," he said.
You might look what you're doing,
you old ass" responded the other.
Upon this what happened? The old
gentleman actually dealt the lieuten-
ant one straight from the shoulder
Needless to say, the sword was drawn
without more ado and but for the in
reference of their fellow passengers
the man might have shed blood.
The next scene was at the police sta
ton. Here the old gentleman wished
to have first say. He was, however,
oyerruled in Difference to the service" "
But at length his turn came.
"Who may you be?" was the ques-
tion put.
Field marshal, retired list" came
the answer.
A general collapse followed.-Man-
chester Guardian.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1903-01-17

tian grace kept from being bitter ha-
tired Of class that the real cause Of
all the horror had not been touched by
all the editors and all the public eX
citement. The landlords were not ar
rested for anarchy in breaking ordi-
nances which If obeyed would have
made the massacre Of children imposSi-
BILE. The professional politicians and
spoilsmen continued to hold their
places and plan for future plunder Of
the people. Tommy Randall. boss Of
Ward IS. was winning golden opinions
from the sufferers by his lavish distri-
button Of food and clothing and shell
ter. The disaster was a godsend to
Tommy. How should the poor. igno-
rant, stolid people of Bowen street
know that the bread and coffee and
beer and clothing and coffins that Tom
my Randall distributed with such
cheerfulness and good will were bought

RURAL DELIVERY DIRECTORY.
People Who Live on the Six Routes
Ont of YorkYille.

Some weeks ago the postoffice depart
ment ordered the postmaster at York
vile to post in the office the names Of
all the patrons Of the various rural
free delivery routes leading out Of the
town. The list was only completed
last week. It constitutes a record that
is Of interest and value to all business
and professional people and to almost
every individual whose name Is in
cluded. For these reasons we have
considered its publication desirable,
and it gives US pleasure to present 1t

ought to be passed, but makes no rec.
concentrations as to the provisions OF
such a bill.
He says a board of pardons would
not relieve the executive, for at last
he would have to be responsible. AS
to the pardoning power generally, he
says:
1.-The executive, who looks at the mat
ter from the right viewpoint must
realize that he has in his power and on
his conscience the life or the liberty OF
the petitioner, however humble or poor
he may be, and at the sametime the
duty which he owes to the peace and
good order Of the state not to turn
loose upon a community the hardened
criminal who deserves the punishment
which has been imposed. The execu-
tive must feel that his action is right
with the facts before him, and II he
does he will have no upbraiding Of con-
science even IL his course Is criticised
by those who have not investigated
the case and who have not upon their
shoulders the responsibility for the ac-
tion which they criticise. would rath-
er err on the side Of mercy, even by
so doing one who deserves punishment
Is given his liberty. The courts and
jurors sometimes make mistakes, and
punishment Is not always simply for
the sake of punishment. Hence the
power given to the discretion Of the ex-
ecutive, that he may correct such err
rors and extend clemency and mercy
to those who, by receiving 1t, become
better citizens and better men and wo-
men when they are released from con-
finement."
He suggests a new mansion and
shows how land now belonging to the
South Carolina college might be utiliz-
ed, how the present mansion property
could be sold and the new one built
without a cent of cost to the state. 1t
is suggested that a committee be ap-
pointed to look into the matter.
The governor favors an increase in
the number Of judicial circuits; sug-
gests amendments to the insurance
laws, and after referring to the fact
that there is large number Of names
on the pension rolls which ought not to
be there, the message says:
"The state should see to it that no
Confederate soldier is permitted to suf-
fer on account of the lack Of the ne
cessities Of life, but it is not the inten-
ton Of the law to give bounty to those
who do not need assistance, however
deserving they may be-"
Various other departments are re-
ferred to, including penitentiary, hos
pital for insane, ETC., and the governor
recommends that the historical records
should be kept systematically and in
dexes of them printed, and he earn
estly recommends the establishment OF
an immigration bureau.

CHAPTER VII-CoNTINUED.

Both morning and evening papers
contained full accounts Of the "Tene-
ment Fire Horror on Bowen Street"
The News printed list Of names OF
property owners, and Philo 81. Marsh's
name was prominent among them as
owner Of the double decker fire trap"
as it was labeled. Every paper in the
city had an editorial on the subject,
but only one Of them. the Index, called
attention to the fact that for years the
nature Of the construction had been
fully known and nothing done because
CITY politics did not wish to Interfere
with property owners who paid a GER
tain amount Of blackmail for the privi-
lege of ignoring city ordinances. A
special meeting Of the city council,
called to consider the condition Of the
people in the ruined district, took ac-
tion to provide temporary quarters for
the homeless. Meanwhile public indig-
nation cooled almost as fast as the
ruins in Bowen street, when 1t was ru-
mored that several prominent men and
women had subscribed several thou
sand dollars to the survivors and that

PAPER FROM COTTON SEED HULLs.-
EThe success Of the Pettibone Cataract
company at Niagara Falls in making
paper from cotton seed hulls means
great deal for the south. The expert
ment Of this company with hulls pro-
duced a soft and tough paper, and the
opinion was expressed that a good
quality of writing paper could be man.
ufactured from the southern product.
It has always been held that cotton
seed hulls were we'll adapted for the
manufacture of paper, but, as In the
case Of bagasse, nothing has hereto
fore been done to put this belief into
practical effect. The recent search Tor
paper stock has, as the Times-Demo-
crat has shown, brought about thor
ough examination Of all the materials
that seem adapted to this industry.
Three Of these materials produced
wholly in the south have specially re-
commended themselves-bagasse or
crushed sugar cane, rice straw, and
cotton seed hulls. Two paper mills are
already converting bagasse into paper,
and the industry is in so promising a
condition that we can foresee the day
when all the crushed cane Of the sugar
districts will find its way to the mills.
One paper mill for the utilization OF
rice straw in the manufacture Of paper
has been provided for. Less progress
has been made in utilizing cotton seed
hulls for paper making, but the ex-
pertinent at Niagara holds out great
promise for the future. If the hulls
prove all that Is hopedd for, it is, OF
course, the greatest Of all the discov-
cries in the industry Of paper making,
as cotton seed hulls are not, like
bagasse and rice straw, limited to
comparatively small section, but are
produced throughout the south. With
these three materials for the manufac-
ture of paper fully utilized, we have
every reason to believe that the south
will become the center of the American
paper industry.-New Orleans Times
