Good citizens do not seek to serve On grand Juries, nor even On peiit juries, says the Arkansas Democrat. There is C class of men who endeav0r to have themseIpes summoned for this service, but they do not make good jurors. The pro fessionnl juror is menace to the community. It is worthy of note, however, that of late years efforts have been made to dispense with his servicss, and, generally speak. ing, the members of our jurles are men wbo are considered most fl for service.

Cost Of the War.

Il is obvious that a war conducieu
nm a system of such magnitude as
that in the East must be terribly cost
". From the latest oficial ngures
given out in Russia it appears tnat
the Cars Government has spent, up
TO the end of 1904, over $3oo'ooo'oVo'
This is. Of course, exclusive OF the
loss represented by her aeet which Is
mt of action and by the artillery
which has been captured by the Japa-
nese These two items have been
estimated in round figures at $0o'-
roo 600, so that the cost OF the war
70 Russia has been practically $',ooo'-
900 per week since the war oesan.
AS regards the expenditure OF the
1.Dopese. the Mikado's financiers
have calculated that to March 81 OF
fhie rear the war will have cost, In
,ludinx initial outlays, $2sS,O00, 600. or
ss 0oe eco a week. On this basis II
will be seen that the war has cost
in twelve months over $625, 5,ooo'ooo-
The total cost to this country OF the
south African war, it will be remem-
bered, was estimated at $1,14o,ooo'-
600. II is fairly safe to assume tnat
for so long as the present struggle
lasts the expenditure will continue
m something like the same gigantic
scale. draining the resources OF both
countries to the utmost.

cold storage eggs, which were deadly
explosive and had to be handled with
care, brought thirty cents.
The people got together and remon'
strated with the hens, but 1t did no
good. Finally an arbitration commit
tee waited on the hens and tried to
persuade them to go back to work.
The arbitration committee pointed out
that only the rich could afford to eat
eggs, but the hens refused to return
to work The arbitration committee
then told the hens that if they per-
sisted in the strik. they would bring
race suicide on themselves.
Then a wise old hen arose and
spoke as follows:
In the spring when US hens wish
to sit the people give us porcelain
doorknobs to sit on. II porcelain
doorknobs are as good as eggs to
sit on. they ought to be as good to
eat as eggs. Tell the people to eat
porcelain door-knobs.'
The arbitration committee could not
answer this argument, and departed
in tears.

An Important Opinion.

Attorney General Gunter rendered
an opinion of much interest to the
school people. He decides that the
State board of education has authori-
ty to say what constitutes college
within the meaning Of section l2oo
o. .he State school law exemptlng
candidates for certificates to teach In
the public schools of the State. from
the examination by the county boards.
This section exempts those who pro-
duce full diploma from any chartered
college or university OF the state.
The State board has decided upon tne
list of colleges it will recognize
South Carolina College, Wofford, Fur
man, Newberry College, Chicora Col
lege, Converse, Winthrop. CLEMSON
Charleston College, PRESBYTERIAN Col
lese for Women, Lander Femaie Col
lege, Presbyterian College Ut South
Carolina, Due West Female College,
Limestone Female College, Greenvllle
Female College, Erskine college
South Carolina Military Academy, COL
umbia Female College-and these col
ored colleges: Clalin College, the
state Colored College at Orangeburg,
Benedict Institute, Avery Normal Col,
lege and Allen University. The good
sense of the opinion is manifest when
it is remembered that any school may
be chartered as a college If 1t is WILL
ing to pay a few dollars for the char'
ter fee.

bales of cotton and, spreading to the
north OF the compress, consumed two
cotton seed oil mills and fifteen dwei-

Birds Are Good Fathers.

Bad fathers are rare among birds.
Usually the male rivals his mate in
love for their children. The carrier.
pigeon-in fact, SO do nearly all
birds-feeds his mate while she Is on
the nest. More than that, the crow,
the most dismal Of all birds, often sits
on the eggs in the nest in order that
Mrs. Crow may have an hour or so
of relaxation and gossip among the
other Mrs. Crows Of her acquaintance.
The blue marten, the black-coated
gull, the great blue heron and the
black vulture all do the same.-Louis-

PRIVILEGE for Receipts

The amount of privilege taxpaid into
the State treasury since the LIST OF
January is s102, ,426.75, against $9S.47l
for the same time last year, diner
ence of $4,000. These figures are as
founding when it is considered that at
the 1st of March the receipts .for this
wear had fallen behind last year bY
nearly $4,000. This means that the ex-'
cess for March of this year is at the
rate Of $1,000 a day, and the amount
received for the year 1905 Is nearly as
much as for the II months OF 1904. AS
has been published before, the receipt
of these payments does not mean that
the use of fertilizers has increased. Tor IL
is quite probable that great quantity
of guano is being stored In warehouses.
