Under the act passed by the last
legislature the botanists of the Uni

college at Pullman are ex-oficio
state botanists, and they will give
notice and description to county aud

Any person is liable to a fine OF
$40 for permitting the above de-

1t is made the duty of county road
supervisors to cut down weeds on

Road supervisors are also to cut the

A vigorous warfare is to be made
to clear the state of these pests of

The new law provides that the

Boys Hostages for Others

That seems to have been a happy
inspiration which prompted Chief
Justice Aiken. at Holyoke, Mass, to
hold three boys found guilty of
breaking into houses as hostages for
the good conduct of all the boys in
the community. When the lads
were brought up for sentence he dis
posed of them by plan that is re-
markable for it's originality.
You boys" he said, will be I'M
der the most careful watch of The
district attorney. If there are any
more disturbances in Holyoke of this
general character you boys will be
sentenced. II other, boys commit
these crimes shall not sentence you
for what they do, but l shall SEN
tence you for what you have already
done. The good behavior of the
community is therefore on your
shoulders"
1t is natural to assume that these
boys will hereafter act as unoficia!
guardians of the peace and that for
their own sakes they will do their
utmost to hold the others in check.
There is, moreover. sentiment of
honor among most boys that will
probably show itself in Holyoke in
avoidance of conduct which would
deprive the three hostages OF their
liberty.

No Migrants In AbbeviIle.

Like the measles, the war on alleged va
grants, breaks out at intervals In the differ
ent towns. 1t is now raging In Orapgeburg.
Abbeville. happily, has no reason to make
war on sny OF her citizens. While there
may. possibly. be man now and then who
Is not getting rich, or wearing himself out at
work, yet we believe II is true that there is as
little crime and as little idleness In this COM
munity as the most exscting could require.
Our own belief is that we have as good and as
industrious community as could be found.
AS proof OF this. try to hire somebody to work
for you. They all have jobs which they must
finish before they can work for you. And the
good wages which are paid keeps carpenters,
bricklayers and laborers busy all the time.
Laborers are receiving q dollar a day, and
this price enables Them TO live comfortably.
A man in two days work could esrn enough
TO keep him In food and out Of the vagrant
class.
Judging from what we see iu the news
papers In referen ce to their own towns, Alb
beville IL about the best place there is on this
earth, for all sorts OF good people. Very few
OF our people drink liquor 10 excess. Very
few OF the m disturb the peace. And II there
is vagrant In town, we are not Informed Of

The Lien Law, the DispeDsRry, and
Poor Houae Farm.

Mr.. +. Cron ,r OF this olty has soma good
Ideas about practical affairs. and last week
We sought his opinion on some OF them. He
said:
THE lien law is as good law as we could
have. 1t furnishes good means OF credit TO
the poor man and benefits alike the white
man and the black man. To do away with
the lien law would infllct q hardship upon
both laborer and landowner. 1t would disor.
ganize labor, and cause suffering 10 many
good white men. who even now have hard
fight with poverty. Some poor mon might
leave Tor other States. where more favorable
laws could be found. Some might possibly 60
TO Texas, and some again might 60 10 the
next worse place."
"How would the repeal OF the lien law affect
the owner Of land?"
I'm the attempt 10 furnish the hands on
their places three fourths OF them would Do
ruined"
"How would the landowner be rulned?'
He would be ruined in the fact that be
would have 10 mortgage his own land 10 get
money, with which 10 supply his hands
AS the law now stands, the laborer mortgages
the result of his labor, and the owner OF the
land Is not In volved in the credit / think
the repeal Of the lien law would be injurious
to the welfare OF the State"
"What do you think OF the dispensary?"
81 think the dispensary is all right, as II
has been run in Abbeville County. 1t ought
TO run as 1t is now run until the debts for the
city hall and she court house are paid. After
the debts are paid, the profits should 60 to
the macsda mizing OF the public roads OF the
county"
"What else Will you say. Mr.. Cromer?"
IL don't want TO say anything about the
management Of the poor farm at present. Al.
Ter the Court Superint endent pitches the crop
for next year. l will tell you what he ought
TO have done. will show him then what he
ought to have done. will show him then
what big mistake he has made"
"What do you think Of school bonds:'
Il would advise you 10 sell the bonds which
you have, and build another warehouse.
The people are now compelled to sell their
cotton since ,the farmers warehouse is full.
II we had another warehouse the farmers
would store more cotton. You nee Mr.. Chap
mans cotton Is lying on his lot because there
Is for 1t no room In the " wLrehouse."

ANTARCTIC POSSIBILITIES

Explorer Befohgrevink Thinks There Mas
Bs . Future For Commerce There.
The recent Antarctic expedition was q
commercial one, and commercially 1t was
. failure, because we did not find the right
whale, 90 valuable for Its whalebone. The
Antarctic was fitted out for the hunt OF
that particular kind Of whale; neyerthe
less I have no doubt that the commercial
result Of the expedition would have been
much better had we worked under more
favorable auspices.
I do not by any means consider the fact
Of our not having met with the right
whale In those seas as conclusive proof OF
their none1istence In the bay at Victoria
Land. The Antarctic found the right
whale at Campbell island In the winter
time; tho boats fastened to five Of them,
Of which, however, only one was caught.
Now, to me It does not seem improbable
that these whales 60 south to the bay Of
Victoria Land, where Ross saw them, In.
the summer, and return north In the win
tar. It would seem incredible that man
of Sir James Ross standing, supported as
he was by able scientists and experienced
whalers, should have made aigrave error
when he said that this valuable whale was
to be found In large numbers In those
southern latitudes.
The difference In the appearance OF the
blue whale, as we found 1t there, and the
right whale, in the method Of spouting, Is
DO striking What even the most casual OBJ
server could not easily be deceived. Very
possibly, had we penetrated farther Into
L. 1,x,P Pno In,
the vicinity Of the volcano peaks Erebus
and Terror, wa too, would have found the
right whale In great numbers. We saw
very many blue whales, but had not the
appliances to take them.
As remarked at the international geo.
graphical congress, We found few scale.
They increased, however, In number as
Ws worked eastward, and seemed afraid
q tho land. AL Of the seals that we met
on the shore showed much uneasiness, and
speedily made for the water, faot which
strengthened my belief in the existence OF
I large enemy Of the seal on the conti'
nent. lido not doubt that the seals CON.
gregate together In larger numbers at
some places on the bay.
I consider the guano beds which We dis
covered Of great commercial Importance,
and they ought to be we'll worth the at
tantion Of enterprising business men. The
specimen which ! brought back with me
contains large percentage Of ammonia.
Furthermore, from the analysis OF the
specimen Of rock which I brought back
with me, the possible and probable presence
Of valuable minerals on the continent Is
proved, although the Lava and the volcanic
aspect Of the coast line do not speak IA
vorably for the presence Of heavy metals
near the surfaoe.-C. e. Borchgrevink In

How tAs Chinsss Count Time.

Tho Chinese sundial embodied the
usual principle, but was crude indeed. A
rod or needle set upright reflected q shad-
on on q hat surface as the sun moved.
On this wore characters indicating the
hours of the day. The Chinese also used a
water clock called the clspsydra. 1t was
disk Of copper or other material, with an
small aperture, from which the
water trinklsd, drop by drop. The olepsy-
dra Of Canton Ii thus described by trav-
elsr: ''It Is . vase Of copper. tits situated
In Q pavilion built on double aroh THAT
crosses q street leading from the great
south gate Of the city to the palace OF the
treasurer Or the province. Like that which
existed, and perhaps exists Ftill In the
Peking observatory, 1t Is composed OF four
Soppsr vases, whence water runs from one
70 another by little tubes fixed at the base.
The vase that rests on the floor has on ita
wooden cover kind Of handle, crossed by
0 rule mounted on . float and covered
with characters representing the hours.
When tho water has run out--that Is, IN
the morning or evening-it Is poured again
Into the uppermost vase. There is q little
briok staircase by which the attendant as
oends.
"In the temples there arc attendants

ID the hour. They strike the hours OF the
day on q drum, and at night they beat q
gong. The attendants who thus look after
lhe flight of time occupy the intervals be-
tween in making sticks Of incense, on
which are marked the hours. These are
sticks go arranged as to burn q certain
length Of time for every hour, and these
arc used by peasants and others. The
gtiok is lighted when the gong sounds,
and In this way the private individual can
keep very tolerable account OF the hours

Tax PayinK.

Abbeviile is behind on paying taxes. Very
few persons have paid. As every mau has
right to wait 10 the last day, and as the
treasurer cannot receive all the taxes in one
day. somebody will be left In the rush and the
penalty will attach very suddenly on the frs,
OF January. We are not going to advise the
Legislature, but we think 1t would be fair TO
give an abatement OF one per cent for al
those who pay before given date The gov
ernment would get the money. and the citi.
zen would te encouraged to pay promptly.
