A new application OF compressed ar

cooker has been invented, consisting
of an air tight chamber with an air
pump. driven by an electric motor,
which operates automatically. The adj
vantage of the invention lies in the fact
that 1t preserves the flavor n pre-
vents the loss OF substance that usual

The passing of iMrs. Thomas J.
Jackson, widow of Gen. Lees great
marshal, has taken from Charlotte and
North Carolina a woman well beloved
for her good works, as well as her
attractice personality-a woman whose
interest and influence might be count
ed in adFance for any cause tending
to the good of her people. Mrs Jack
son occupied an unusual position in
Charlotte; and there she will be
mourned for herself alone.
But to the rest of the State, to peo-
pie outside the range of her personal
influence, Ter death bears sad sig
nificance in that it snaps the last link
between the living generation and
one of the most inspiring figures of the
one tnat has all but passed into his

right arm of the Confederacy. More
daan any one else, she knew OF the
working of the gigantic intellect that
came so near to achieving the impossi-

captain of all time, the knightliest
figure of our time of storm, is but a
shadow in the land of shades, but a
name on the printed page, like Ma
poleon or Charlemange or Attila the
Hun To her he was man, the only
man worth while; all the others to her
served only to fill in the background
behind this central figure of her life,
who seems to us a shade.
Of Mrs. Jackson's SO years, only six
were spent with her husband Sne

Of her long life those half dozen years
must have been remembered like the
little spot on the moor that Growing

IL. Editor: I lately saw in the AZ:

of potash caused by the war.
Now, lest some one in Newber-y
county may commence the selling Of
these trees, desire to give my expe-
rience with china and other trees that
put up sprouts. When l was qpite a

my mother married a man who vas

Now, Mr.. Editor, as this March has
two full moons its got me sorter tan

But I am getting off the subject
about tne trees. Anyway, when 1 was
about u years old, I reckon) Il might
have been 2O) my step-father's yard al
lie old homestead was full of a mix
ture of china and white mulberry trees
and near the garden stood a largo
china tree which he mad cut down and
given this step-son special instructions
to step about and clear the sprouts
from this old stump, each and every
year, until exterminated. At the same
time he instructed me to superintend
and dig up one of those white null
berry trees and get every root. I
knew nothing but to obey orders, SO
l proceeded accordingly and after a
few days hard digging though had
the tree and roots all out, when I got
hold of root going southwest which
I followed horizontally through New
berry county, across Saluda river,
into Edgefeld. When I got over there
the durn root had a bigger tree at that
end than where started, so 1 pulled
off my hat and made back for the old
homestead in the northeast corner Of
Newberry county, where I have been
digging the sprouts around that old
china stump ever since, and they get
thicker every year.
Now, if you will figure out which one
of these full moons will bive my cor

London, March 29.-Upward Of $50
lives were lost in the sinking by Ger
man submarines Saturday and Sunday
of the Dempster liner Falaba bound
from Liverpool for t3e coast of Africa,
and the British steamer Aguila, Liver
pool for London.
The Falaba, torpedoed Sunday in St.
Georges channel, mad aboard $50 pas
sengers and a crew Of 80. Of this
total only 14O were rescued. Eight o.
those rescued died from exposure.
The Aguila was sunk by shell fire
Saturday night off tae Pembroke coast.
She carried three passengers and a
crew Of 40. Twenty-three of the crew
and al of the passengers were lost.
Another Dutch steamer, the Amstel Of
S53 tons, was blown up by mine of
Flamborough Head today.
In the case Of botl the ra1aDa and
the Aguila, upon sighting the subma-
rine the captain tried to escape by
putting on all speed possible, but the
underwater craft overlook the steam
ers, showing that Germany now has
some of her most modern submarines
engaged in the operations against
England.
The captain of the Falaba, who was
lost, was given five minutes to get his
passengers and crew into the boats
but, according to the survivors, before
this was possible torpedo hit the
engine room, causing an explosion.
MANY were killed, and the steamer
sank in 10 minutes.
TrawIers rescued most of those
saved; others got away in the boats.

explosion occurred were thrown into
