South Carolina Newspaper
Man Visits Cotton Mill in
Italy--The Operatives and
What they are Paid--Crude
Farming.

written to his paper from Milan,
Italy:
Yesterday the men of the par
ty, accompanied by Mr.. Dunning,
the United States consul here,
went out to the town of Busto
Ariszio, about % miles away.
This is the center of the cotton
manufacturing town, and the
object of the trip was to see the
condition of the mill operatives
in the mills and in their homes.
The cotton mill that we visited
employs about 500 hands, only
100 of whom are men. The pro-
duct is cotton jeans and drills,
some colored goods being made.
Most of the product goes to
South America and India. The
manager of the mill complained
about the manner in which
American cotton is packed and
some of the bales that we saw,
with most of the bsgging torn
and ripped, justified his COM
plant. He said he would be will
ing to paw a cent a pound more
for cotton properly packed, as II
would reach him in better condl-
ton and without much waste
and loss.
The women in the mill average
from 40 to As cents day, and
none of the men get over dollar
day. The women were bare
footed while at work in the mill I,
but wore wooden sand ais going
to and from their work. The
Italian law prohibits the en-
plovment of children under II
years of age in the mills, but
the law seems to be dead letter,
as we saw many children in the
mill who appeared to be under
that age. "Child labor" condi-
tons here are very much worse
than they are at home.
The mill here has been rum
ming a weave shed only for some
time. but is now putting In a
spinning department. The ma.
chinery, even that now being
put in, is of an antiquated type.
1t is all of English manufacture.
The operatives are paid by the
piece, and no operative runs
more than two looms. Some run
only one. The looms are heavy
and cumbersome, and those rum
ming on colored goods resemble
those in the Brogon Mills, though
coarser, and is sold in the rough
none of it being mapped. A great
deal Of starch is added to give it
weight.
The mill is using electric cur
rent to drive its machinery. The
current is generated on a river
some distance away, and the
mill manager, who, by the way,
speaks very good English, said
it cost him $25 per horse power
per annum for twelve hour
run.

Pertinent Thoughts on Literature.

Pertinent Thoughts on Literature.
Mr.. S. II. Clark, of the University
of Chicago whose coming to Paducah
on March 20 under the auspices or
the Woman's club, will be such a dis
tinct literary event, delivered a Sc
ries of six lectures and interpreta-
tive recitals on tine Tragic Ideal'
before the Woman's club of Louis
Vile, at the Gait House. He was hap
PLY introduced by the Rev. Carter
Helm Jones, of the Broadway Bap-
tist church. OF Mr. Clarltls introduce
tory lecture the Courier-Journal
says: 90.
1.-The tendency of the age to get
away from the serious was the key
note of Mr. Clark's very interesting
talk. He introduced his subject by
saying that the universal cry from
the banker, the broker, the business
man, the merchant, from everybody,
was we have enough tragedy in our
own lives, give us something Joyous,
something that ends all right" Blu,
he said it is truth and not all right
TO a consciousness of things as they
are. The average reader of today
wants to avoid the strain OF thinking,
of sequential thinking, hence the
popularity Of the trash that is pub
lished in such quantities. Moreover.
man does not like to face the prob
lem of suffering, therefore, he turns
to light literature, which mas the
same effect upon him as an intoxicant
lit makes him forget. We can see
the actual result of the intoxicant,
continued the speaker, hence the
formation of temperance societies,
but where are the societies for the
prevention OF the demoralizing, cor
rupting effect of trashy literature?'
Mr.. Clark spoke in vehement terms
on this subject and said that he did
not believe the saloon had as PERM
cious an effect as trashy literature
which pretends to be moral He quot
ed Sidney Lanler, who said the world
would be much better off If nine
tentns of the literature on the market
had remained unpublished. Return
ing to the subject of tragedy Mr..
Clark said the great masters of lit
erature had done their best in TRACE
dy, and cited Shakespeare, Goethe
Corneille and others. He said the
great poets had reached their great.
est flights through tragedy and cited
Dante. Homer, Aeschylus. In tragedy
a soul struggles against eternal laws
and Mr.. Clark spoke at length on
Hamlet. In conclusion, ne said trag-

What osteopathx WIN po.

There are but few people who have
not heard of Osteopathy, also OF
some of its achievements. But there
are far too many who have accredit-

conditions from which they have
been cured, or which have come un-
der their observation. Not infrequent-
ly there is mutual surprise when one
who was cured of rheumatism meets
another who has been cured OF asth-

Mr.. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS WIG.

John d. Rockefeller is going IL
pretty strong these days. No sooner
lis 1t announced that a great part of
his $32.O00,OOO gift to education is
to be used for the advancement of
women than the news is flashed
across the Atlantic cable that the bill
lionaire has a new wig.
But that isn't all-the new wig is
made from the nair of a woman.
1.-THE beautiful soft gray hair of a
woman once prominent In society,"
volunteers the Partisan expert who
manufactured the thatch for the
mead which contains information so
eagerly sought by Mr.. Hadley of Mis-
Isouri.
Hair for wigs comes from many
sources, so says Monsieur Andre Au-
tard, who has waxed and grown fat
in purse by filing the orders of fas-
tidious Americans. The hair of pris-
oners is cut off and sold, the clip
pings from the heads of criminals are
often employed. None of that for
Mr. Rockefeller.
No, Mr.. Rockefeller has the price
for the finest, so he gets the finest.
The color is right, the length of the
locks suits exactly, and the weight of
the wig is but 20 grammes. The
American nation can rest easy, with
these details settled-firm in the con-
viction that its oil king stands in no
danger of catching cold.
The cable, however, has omitted
one essential particular where is
the wig parted? Surely not in the
middle.-St. Louis Republic.

"You never miss the water, till the
well ruDs dry" Few people realize
what a place the daily newspaper has
made for itself in the life of the city
man, until they are deprived Of it for
"a hours, during a visit in the coun-
try or IN travel. In Butte. Montana,
the people have been deprived Of the
for four days, on account
OF a strike of pressmen The out-of-
town dailies have trebled their orders
for Butte, but the supply was exhaust
ed in a few minutes and the papers
went at premium OF 81 apiece. In
barber shops, restaurants and other
public places, the lucky possessor OF
a newspaper is prevailed upon to read
it aloud. Butte will appreciate her
newspapers when the strike is set

100000 DIAMOND THEFT.
Houston Firm Robbed of Gems in
Broad Daylight.

Houston, Tex, Feb. 19.-Tnrough
the bold act of a stranger, the J. j.
Sweeney Jewelry company of this
city lost between $4,000 and $780,
900, worth of loose diamonds and up
to late hour today no progress to-
ward their recovery had been re-
ported. About 10 O'Clock this morn
ing an unknown man entered the
store and asked to have an unmount-
ed diamond, which he had, matched
in order to have both mounted for
ear rings.
A box Of loose stones was produc-
ed by the clerk and they went
through them, trying to select sat
isfactory stone. The stranger did not
appear to be satisfied and said he
would send his wife around in the
afternoon. He left the store. and, as
the clerk supposed, the box of dia-
monds was returned to the safe.
There was occasion to take the box
from the safe again in the afternoon,
and II was then discovered that the
box that mas been returned contain
ed only tissue paper instead of the
valuable jewels.
