Special to The State.
Rock Hill, July 26. The
throwing of the Southern Textile
company into hands of receivers
has affected Rock Hill in that it
has caused the closing down ofthe
Chicora cotton mills of that com :
pany of this city for an indefinite
period, placing u large force of
bands out of work. The South
ern Textile company having been
Incorporated in New Jersey, Mr..
W. +. Auild of New York was
appointed in New Jersey as the
temporary receiver of all mills
operated by it.
Mr.. Walter Nj. Dunlap of
Rock Hill has been appointed
ancillary temporary receiver by
Judge Ernest Gray or the circuit
court. and has assumed charge of
the Chicora mills here. The
Southern Textile company Is bon
ded tor about S6,COO,OOO. The
Chicora mills will certainly not be
opened again before November
unless an amicnble settlement Is
reached between the opposing
interests, anu this is not thought
likely here, it being expected that
the differences will be fought ont
in the courts. Mr.. S. |. Moore
OF Rock Hill has been manager of
these mills up 10 the time of the
receivership.

margin between the price of raw
cotton and the selling price of the
finished product that many mills
have been running at a direct loss
for some time. The manufacture

should be placed on a more satis-

 Where the Trouble Comes.
 Rutland (vt.) News
 People celebrate the discovery of a now fact in nature; they grow eloquent over the invention of a new piece of machinery; they heap riches in the lap Of the man who puts on the market q new breAkfast food. Why should they not pay some slight tribute to the author of . new epigram? A really great episram is rarer than the ruby. The jewel may be crushed, but the verbal gem lives forever and denes all the forces of decay. Its sparkle may never be dimmed.
 If tho saying expresses great truth in few words, if 1t shines with the el!nt of homely humor, if its appeal be broad and general, so may 1t be de- cided whether the epigrammatic offer ing be genuine or only . clever imi- tation
 Apply these standards to the rough and uncut. yet precious phrase which lies imbedded in the speech of a plain Methodist minister from the upstate counties of New York and Vermont delivered the other day before the con- ference of his brethren in his district. He was telling of the hard work and email pay which are the lot of himself and his fellows in the poorer districts of the country. And he closed with this tremendous question: How shall a man support a sealskin wife on a muskrat Income? The epigram may provoke a smile. perhaps. but that same question, never before so we'll put. has vexed many other men in and out of the ministry. Attempts to an- swer it have ended before now in the penitentiary It is that question, if au- thorities are to be believed, which is responsible for the increasing number of bachelors. particularly in the cities. and for the corresponding increase in the number of midd1e-aged spinsters. It is a question which might, possi- ply, be profitably debated by some of the women's clubs
 Are too many girls of the present day being reared in q way which fits them only to be "sealskin wives r. And where shall the young man with "muskrat income" look for a proper helpmate?
 At any rate the new epigram cuts deep and raises serious questions. It deserves a permanent place in the ar- chives of English language, alongside that other classic. but still sparkling. saying which describes the plight of
