SARGENT TO STOP INVASION.

immigration Commissioner Lays Plans
for Still Hunt for SnuysIers.
Z WASHINGTON, Jan. ga still
hunt for Chinese smugglers has been
planned by Commissioner General
Sargent Of the immigration bureau.
The hunting field will embrace all that,
section of the country contiguous to
the Canadian border from Maine to
the Rocky mountains.
Mr.. Sargent has been perfecting
plans for this work for several months.
One feature has been the addition of
number Of inspectors to the regular
force, two having been appointed in
Minnesota recently These inspectors
will make a rigid investigation of the
papers of all Chinese found In their
respective districts, and. will see to the
deportation of such as cannot produce
the necessary documents emitting them
to remain in the United States.
The inspectors are also instructed
to be on the lookout for attempts at
smuggling Chinese across the border,
which daring band is reported about
to make. The information received in
Washington is to the effect that these
Cinnamon have been gathered in Liv-
erpool, and are said to be coming to
this country in small parties. The pla4i
is to send the men to Halifax, Nova
Scotia, thence to ST. Thomas, Ont, and
other smaller border cities, and,
across the border into the large cities
of the states, where they can hide in
comparative safety. 1t is said that
each Chinaman SO smuggled has to
pay the band several hundred dollars
for bringing him into this country.
Commissioner General Sargent hopes
to capture some Of the white smugglers
as we'll as the Chinese.

 The famous pin was found by dancer in the muck of the stage. She had a lover. M. d'Arlande, the first person to accompany Pizarre de Rozier in his bal- loon ascension. On the initial voyage in the air D'Ariande wore upon the breast of his coat lock of his mistresss hair. fastened with the fated pin. A guest of wind tore in half the small flag carried by the aeronauts. The pin was used to mend 1t.
 The Pin G0ez to the Coffin.
 Among the spectators present when the balloon ascended was M. Baillf, a celebrated astronomer. De Rozier pre- scented him with the flag fastened with the pin and it was put away in the closet of the scientist.
 On the memorial day when Louis XVI was conducted by the people from Yer sailles to paris, M. Bailli, named mayor of the city by exclamation, was at his home awaiting the moment to go to the Hotel de Vile to recieve the King, who, arriving sooner than was expected, q messenger on horseback was summoned to summon Bailli. In haste he forgot his official badge. He returned to his cabinet to get it, and not knowing how to attach it to his coat he caught sight of the fated pin, which was still on the flag. With 1t he fixed his badge and hurried to the Hotel de Vile.
 Fate was now speeding the pin to its last and predestined end. At the moment when as Mayor Baili presented the na- tional coeards to Louis XVI there was no other way to fasten 1t to the Kings hat except with the historic pin. once his ,propeF&S but now destined to hold in place the symbol of the revolution that was to deprive him of his throne and of his life.
 Again the pin was lost for long time when an undertaker's assistant. prepar- ing for burial the body of Mirabeau, the great orator of the Revolution. in search for something to fasten his winding sheet, found 1t in the sweepings at the Louvre.
 Its chronology is remarkablekAFir serving on the toilet of Nixon de l'Encos then to close the fischu of De Maintenon now in the jewel box of Louis XIV then to hold the plumes in his hat at his meeting with James II. of England; In the wig of the Chancellor France; to fasten the boquet of Mime du Barry; in the jewel box of Louis XIV and Louis XVI; purloined by the Count de Mar bonne; given to Mile Conta; lost by her and found by a dancer and used to attach lock of her hair to her lovers breast; to mend a torn flag. then hid den in the closet of M. Bailli; then tc pin the revolutionary cocarde to the hat of Louis XVI and finally to disappear forever in the grave of Mirabeau.

OLDEST OF ALL CROP PESTS.
HesKian Fly Brought to United States
 During the RevOIutlOn.

Few people know that the Hessian fly is one of the oldest of all the crop pests in this country, and that its name was given it as a result of the fact that it was brought to the United States in the straw included in the inn pediments of the Hessian troops sent ists by George III in 1776. It was first noticed on Long Island about 125 years ago, and has since spread coextensively with the progress of civilization and wheat growing, west, north and south Sometimes 1t completely destroys the growing wheat in certain sections, and the average loss 1t causes is about 4O,- 000.o00 bushels annually. or about or z per cent. of the total crop. The en- tomological bureau has studied 1t long and closely, and the recommendations made to wheat-growers have undoubt- edly kept the damage far below what 1t would otherwise have been; and yet, in spite of the best efforts of the scien- lists and the farmers who act on their advice, the fly got beyond control dur ing the season of four years ago and destroyed fully so per cent of the crop In the infested region, the resultant loss being in the neighborhood of $35,- 000.000 or $40, 900, 900. ThisN extraordi- nary and unfortunate development was due to weather conditions favorable to the pest and to an unusual scarcity of its parasitic enemy This parasite. which forms inside the body of the fly. has been secured In large numbers by the entomologists and liberated in sey- eral wheat-growing States, and much good has resulted.

I damage; pleading-Damages to be re | coverable, must be the natural ant proximate consequence of the wrong | done; not the remote or accidental re suit. Special damages can be recover ed only when they are not too remote and are specially claimed in the com plaint.
 4. Same; same; same-Damage to goods levied upon under attachment such goods being of perishable nature growing out of the storing thereof for a long time in a closed room, and from lack of attention and by want of air, are actual damages.
 s. Same; same; attorneys fees-Rea- sonable and necessary attorneys fees paid or incurred in defending an attach ment suit are recoverable in a suit on the attachment bond as actual damages, whether the attachment was only wrongful, or vexatious as well, if the employment of such attorney became necessary as a result of the suing out of the attachment. And where exempt property Is levied upon under the writ, such fees paid counsel for preparing and filing the claim of exemptions and defending a contest thereof, are recov- erable as actual damages.
 6. Same; same; injury to credit and business-Injury to the credit and busi-
  suit may result from the wrongful or vexatious suing out of an attachment, and form the basis for the recovery of special damages in suit on the attach ment bond.
 T. Charge of court; misleading charge; appeal-The supreme court will not reverse the lower court for giving misleading charge unless it clearly appears that injury resulted from the giving of such charge. The opposite court by asking an explanatory charge curing the supposed vice.
 8. Attachment; grounds for-The temporary absence of a debtor from the State, though he does not inform his creditors, does not per SC authorize a creditor to resort to the remedy of at- tachment to collect his debt.
 g. Same; damages; punitive damages Where complaint claims the amount of the penalty of an attachment bond in a suit thereon for vexatiously or ma liciously suiing out the attachment, an instruction to the jury that they might fix such punitive damages as seems right to them not exceeding the amount of the attachment bond, asserts a cor rect rule of damages.

As a mo- tive which inspires the action of a per son; when necessary to be shown, mal- ice CT It's lack must be gathered from a consideration of all the evidence in the case, bearing upon the inquiry.

 Indictment for Murder.-Appeal from
 the Circuit Court of Pickens.
 1. Indictment; motion to quash.-The fact that a grand juror, who after wards participated in finding an tndict- ment, was not present when the other members were sworn, Is insufficient to support a motion to quash the indict- ment, when 1t Is shown. that upon the juror afterwards coming into court, he was properly sworn and qualified, and the portion of the charge already given was rehearsed to him.
 Same; same.-Under Section 5269 of Code, no objection to the formation of a grand jury can be considered, except that the jurors were not drawn in the presence of the officers designated by law.

Are Being Driven from the Field By the
 BOudOir Buffet.
 New York Letter in Pittsburg Dispatch.
 The magnificent hotel barrooms, which were feature of Broadway life decade ago. are being driven from the field by the boudoir buffet. Old-time hotels like the St. Nicholas, the New York, the Metropolitan, the Morton House. Union Square. Coleman and oth- CTS that made New York barrooms something to talk about a few years ago almost have gone out of existence. Barkeepers and mixers of special drinks that made them famous either have gone to another sphere or into other business. and there are none to take their places. To cite the most conspicuous example the famous ellip- tical bar In the Hoffman House, which Edward s. Stokes made the talk of two continents, has been taken away The collection of expensive paintings, so fa- nous that a special view hour each morning was appointed for women, has been dispersed. What was once the most magnificent barroom in the world Is now very commonplace cafe in com parison with the more modern New York hotels. There Is a small barroom in another part of the hotel which bears about the same relation to the sump- tuous Stokes menage as a pushcart does to a pony carriage. This is true of all the big hotels. The waiter and small table have put the barkeeper out of business. In many of the new boudoir bars If a customer steps up to the small bar and orders drink he Is asked to take a seat at one of the tables and a waiter will carry the drink to him This usually involves a tip to the waiter that approximates one-haIf the price of the drink The old-tim bar keeper complains bitterly at the inno- vation of the foreign waiter in the bar room or cafe.

It Is Appalling.

GreenViIIc AdVOcate.
 If the State appropriates the surplus now in the Treasury six pr seven hundred thousand dollars. and all the counties levy an extra 10 per cent. tax for school pur- poses, then the day will begin to dawn when the stigma of illlteracy will be lifted from this great State, As it is, the amount of iiliteracy is appalling, especially in that section known as the white counties, where the land is poor and the people poor like the land they never having the least conc option of It's blessings, never sent their children to school, on the principal that what was good enough for the parent was good enough for the children.
