COMBINED GOOD ROADS BILL.
Sub Committee of House Named to
Consider Measure.

Washington, April IA sub-com-
mittee of the house committee on
agriculture has been appointed to
consider the consolidated measure
for federal aid in the maintenance of
good roads, recently introduced by
Representative Shackleford, of Mis-
souri,, as the result of meetings
brought about by Representative
Byrnes, of South Carolina, to secure
cooperation among the score or
more. of representatives who had in
troduced individual good roads bills
at this session. The subcommittee
consists of Representative Rubey, of
Missouri, chairman, and Representa-
tives Lever, of South Carolina; Beall,
of Texas; Simmons, of New York,
and Hanna, of North Dakota. 1t is
expected that a report will be made
by the subcommittee within about
ten days. If such report is not
made, a caucus of the Democrats of
the house may be called to settle
the matter. The supporters of the
consolidated bill are confident of be-
ing able to pass it through the
house.

Colonel Buford were either killed or
wounded. Eighty-four gallant SOL
diers are buried in this grave. They
left their homes for the relief of
Charleston, but hearing, at Camden,
of the surrender of the city, were re-
turning. Here their lives were ended
in the service of their country
On the south side is inscribed:
Erected to the memory and in the
honor of the brave and patriotic
American soldiers who fell in the
battle which occurred at this place
on the 2Sth of May, 1880, between
Colonel Abraham Buford, who COM
manded a regiment of $50 Vir-
ginians, and Colonel Tarleton of the
British army with $50 cavalry and a
like number of infantry"
The inscription on the north side
is:
'The cruel and barbarous massacre
committed on this occasion by Tarle-
ton and his command after the sur
render of Colonel Buford and his
regiment, originated the American
warcry: Remember Tarleton's quar-
ters.' A British historian, confesses
that at this battle the virtue of hu-
manity was totally forgot. "
Some of the statements contained
in these inscriptions vary from the
statements made by both American
and British historians. Evidently
the number of Tarleton's forces are
greatly exaggerated, while those of
Buford are greatly diminished.
The massacre of Buford's forces
aroused the Scotch-Irish settlers of
Chester, York and Lancaster, and the
result was that the British were de-
feated at Williamson's Kings Noun
tain, the Cowpens and Yorktown

LUNATIC ATTACKS PHYSICIAN.
DR.. J. A. Faison, Of Bennettsyille,
Receives Severe Cuts.

Bennettsville, April 7.-Dr. J. A.
Faison was severely cut last night
by John White, crazy negro. About
II o'clock DR.. Faison received a
phone message to 60 to the planta-
tion of Mr.. Kenneth Matheson, about
six miles west of Bennettsville, to
see White, who was acting as a crazy
man. DR.. Faison hastened to answer
the call. In the meantime the negro
had escaped from those who he'd him
in custody. AS DR.. Faison drove on
the dam at Egypt Mill the negro, with
sheet over him, jumped in front of
the horse and seized the lines, fright
ening the horse. 1t looked like the
horse would back the buggy from the
dam and the doctor got out. The ne
gro advanced and slashed the doc
tors face with knife.
DR.. Faison grabbed the negro and
threw him down, but soon found that
the negro had two knives. Finally the
doctor succeeded in pinning both of
the negro's hands down, but in that
position he could not take the knives
away from him: After about fifteen
minutes two negro men came up and
the lunatic was. tied. Then DR.. Faison
und he was badly cut. He hurried
to Bennettsville and Drs. Grassland
and Kinney dressed his wounds. One
ugly cash ran from just behind the
left ear to above the eye, requiring
ten stitches to close it. Another one
began just below the temple and ran
to near the middle of the chin, re-
quiring six or seven stitches. The
right hand was also badly cut. DR..
Faison's remarkable strength and
personal attention TO his wounds
alone prevented his bleeding to
death.
The negro was brought to jail
covered with the blood of DR.. Faison.

The piano Is one of our best-known
musical instruments. It was invented
several hundred years ago. and In its
earlier incarnations was known as the
spinet. or the harpsichord. and afforded
eminent artists many opportunities TO
portray languishing ladies seated before

The piano comes either as an upright
or a grand. The grand is a large, fiat
proposition that takes up several hun
dred dollars worth Of room. while the
upright has a nice smooth top on which

Other buoys carry fog signals. These
are Of two types-the bell buoy and the
whistlinG buoy. The bell buoy has q
framework on which IL mounted q bell.
Thfre is no clapper inside the bell. In
one type there are three or four clappers
that swing and strike outside as the buoy
tosses with the motion of the water.
Another type has what looks like a small
cannon ball that rolls about on the plat
form Just beneath the mouth Of the bell
and strikes It. Bell buoys are placed in
harbors and rivers where the waters are
comparatively smooth and where 1t is
not necessary that their warning should
be audible at any great distance.
Some EveH whistle.
Whistling buoys are usually placed on
coasts where there are shoals or reefs.
The air that is admitted and compressed
by the rising and falling Of the waves is
forced through locomotive whistle
which surrounds the buoys. and keeps up
an Intermittent shrieking. The rougher
the seas the louder the noise. and for this
reason a whistling buoy II nearly always
placed In very turbulent waters 1t can
be heard at distance Of ten miles under
ordinary conditions.
The floating part Of all buoys is now
made Of iron. There are three standard
shapes of buoys. the nun buoy. which is
sharply conical: the can buoy. which
approaches the cylindrical form. and the
ice buoy. which IL very long and narrow
and resembles the spar buoy. Spar buoys
are heavy poles from twelve to sixty feet
In length. The usual weight of anchors
for the large buoys around New York
Harbor 10 5000 pounds. The anchors are
solid hemispherical pieces Of iron.
The buoys around New York especially
are being continually run down by
steamers. but as they are built with
water-tight compartments they are sell
dom sunk They have to be watched and
kept In repair continually. and this fur

says a writer in the New York Tele-
graph.
There. in a section Of the town given
over to seafaring men, I saw on sign
above a dingy eating house. american
style cooking-chop suey."
The proprietor was a Chinamap, but
he had given credit where credit was
due. and had disowned his nations
claim to the tasty dish. San Francisco.

is also the home of chop suey.
1t was there that chop suey first saw
the light Of day, and the Chinese res
taurants Of San Francisco are still the
most elaborate In the country, although
they have been widely copied. China
is not without credit in the matter. for
the inventor of the dish was a China
man. although an Americanized one.
The title chop suey" is meaningless
enough. signifying meat and water, but
II had an Oriental flavor and was thus
selected as the trade name for the &C.
centric hash which has made its way
into every corner of our land
Chop suey is made somewhat after
the manner of Chinese dishes. but some
of its ingredients are not in common
use in the Fiowery Kingdom. Ordinary
chop suey, for instance, is made on
beef basis.
Not Beef Eaters.
A Chnaman Of China very rarely
tastes beef, for not only is the religious
influence of the Buddhists against the
eating of any beast of burden, but
there is not enough grazing land in
the empire to make it possible for beef
to be raised for consumption.
Then. again, the small shoots in chop
suey which the Chinese restaurateurs
tell US are bamboo shoots are in reality
nothing of the kind They are wheat
sprouts. and are much smaller and more
delicate than bamboo, which even in
the sprouting stage is of great diameter.
The cuisine of China is toothsome.
Most globe trotters rank the Chinese as
second only to the French in the art of
cookery. In the ability to prevent waste
the Chinese cook is without a rival.
OF course. the peasant of China does
not share in the delicate triumphs of
the national cookery. He is glad to get
the meat of donkey. horse, dog, or
camel; nor does he scruple to ask how

 DIRECTOR ARRIVES
Believes He Will Be Able to Organize Excellent Gym

C. A. WadswoTth, who has been made physical director of the Bisbee Y. NJ. c. A., arrived in the city yes terday from Ashland, Ky. and as- sumed the duties Of the position. He will spend this week in studying the local field and next Monday will start gymnasium classes.
 This is the first time that l was ever so far southwest and I am ap- preciating the novelty of Bisbee. My first impressions are decidedly com plimentary to BiSbee and l believe that l shall like it. With so many young men working in the mines here 1t should be a splendid field for gymnasium athletics and if We can interest them in athletics we should have splendid gymnasium organiza- tion as an adjunct to association work"
 T realize that after putting in a shift in the mines, miners do not feel inclined to do gym work but the pro per kind of exercise in moderation is rest rather than work and We hope to have the miners participating in our indoor athletics"
 Mir. Wadsworth comes from the I. NJ. c. A. at Cincinnati, which is one of the best equipped and most per fectly organized in the country. Prior to that time he was connected with the association at Ashland, Ky, and Charleston, West Virginia.
