The Cotton Mills and the Schools.

Both institutions have closed for a short
period. The schools closed to give the
children a rest from their studies and to
give them a little time to play. The cot
ton mills shut down their machinery for q
much shorter time than the schools were
closed. AS a rule men and women who
work ten hours every day in the year, need
a little rest. All work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy.
A great parade has been made about the
closing of the cotton mills for a short
time. This, no doubt, to scare the pro-
posed builders Of new mills. The fact is,
that some Of the mills needed repairs that
could not be well n with the mills in
operation. And then all men and boys
need a rest, whether they are in a cotton
mill or at school. 1t is presumed that no
one will discourage the opening of new
schools because Of the vacation in the old
schools.

The Difference.

Perhaps it was a year ago that w. L
Jones Of Union, poisoned his wife. He
has been in jail, and his case has been in
the courts for months. He was, on trial
sentenced to life imprisonment at hard
labor, but he is still out Of the penitentiary
Allen Davis, negro, Of Orangeburg
when full OF liquor, shot and killed his
wife. He was poor and had no lawyer
The Court went through the farce Of ap-
pointing a lawyer to defend him, and,
Immediately without a chance to prepare
for trial, the case was called. The negro
Of course was convicted of murder. He
was sentenced in May to be hanged July
1, and on the appointed day, and promptly
at the appointed hour, the negro stepped
off into eternity.
The white man, w. T. Jones, poisoned
his wife, the least excusable and the most
offensive form OF murder. Allen Davis
was full Of liquor, and crazed by drink
and incensed by his wifes treatment shot
her. The negro has been hung, but the
white man is still looking for some techni-
cality by which he may be saved from
going to the ~penitentiary.
The verdict Of Jones, with recommends
ton for mercy in committing the most
revolving crime is in contrast with the
verdict OF the jury which tried the negro
for killing his wife while under the in.
fiuence Of liquor.

Is PugiIism Waning.

The knock out that Jeffreys received on
the fourth at the hands of the negro john
n but Emphasizes the fact that once a
man has INDUCED in the soft luXuries, he
can never again attain his perfect physl-
cal condition. Four or ever three years
ago Jeffreys could have whipped any man
in the world, and his defeat is the same
old story.
The triumph Of Johnson will likely give
a greater back set to pugelism than all
the law and p%etitioning that have been
brought to bear to prevent this fight. The
lower the fisty art descends in the scale of
responsibility the less popular will it
become.
No one need console himself, however,
that the spirit of pugelism is dead. The
eagerness with which men of all ages,
classes and conditions have awaited the
fight, and the avidity with which they
have devoured the details, round by
round, since the fight, leave no mistake
in the mind a. to the real spirit OF the
masses.
Old men some with titles, some with
high up church connections even, have
followed the details OF the Jeffreys John
son fight with as much interest as the
real sport. This only goes to show that
the spirit Of combat, which is as old as
the human race, does not wane even in
the atmosphere Of religion and education.
The fiber in q piece ofpolished mahogany
furniture is the same as that Of the
gnarled and rustic parent tree.
This relic of barbarism, will probably
be stamped out by legislation, for in this
as in prohibition movements, men are
often afraid to speak their honest senti-
ments, but the spirit Of combat is likely to
survive to the end Of time.
The Greeks had just such contests in
their Olympic games. The Romans, when
= they had become too effeminate to engage
In such contests themselves, brought
down the stalwart barbarians Of the north.
"patte6 their red brown and bet their
cesterces upon their blood" Far from
improving on the conditions Of ancient
times, the modern prize fight, seems to be
a distinct retrogression.
That this last fist fight has been between
a white man and a negro is deplored
throughout the south, and as much as'all
white men wished that Jeffries might have
been victorious, it is perhaps best for
public morals that the belt has descended
to the lowest strata.
