oThe Rev, T, H. Leavitt, a Nort),
Carolina evangelist, who is conducting

saw two young women smiling during
service. Walking down the aisle to
where they were he knelt and prayed |
that they would die immediately and go
to hell. fhe Rev. S. C. Hatcher, who
was present and who has attended the
revivals, straightway left the church.
He is said to have replied: oI think it
my duty to pray peop!e out of*hell, not
to pray them in.�

after the pastor, who was praying,

GAMBLING IN COTTON.
HowTa Former Tar Heel Accounts.
for the Low Price.
John T. RoddeyT a former citi-
zen of this State and an operator
on the New Yerk Exchange,
writes to ithe Atlanta Journal as
follows :
No douht the late civil war cost
the South many lives and an im-
~mense amount of money, but in
~my opinion since the war the
South has lost at least five times
the amount shrough exchanges
on cotton; in fact the amount of
money lost by the Southern farm-
er and speculator during the past
twenty five yeare, by having the
price manipulated by profession"
al speculators, will amount to
many millions of dollara. I be-
lieve the average town in the
South of 5,000 people has lost by
speculation and haying tke price
manipulated against the farmer
from $250,000 to $1,000,0U0"and
think of the number of towns!
A profezsional gambler in gam-
bling only rains the individual
with whom he is gambling, but
professional operators, in order to
accomplish their ends, not only
ruin the indiyidual but also ruin
many millions of individuals by
effecting markets which effects
them all, inorder to make their
profits. Supply and demand for
spot cotton does not effect the
price, but supply and demaad for
futures establishes the price.
For instance, every spot buyer
simply asks how T&sthe future
market, and if the future market
1s 10 points lower, he immediate-
ly lowers his limit equal to the
drop in futures, and every farmer
that markets his cotton simply
suffers from the drop speculators
cause. In other words, spot
buyers and mil! men only haye
to break the future market in
' order to buy their spots at what-
a eyer price they care to fix,
knowing absolutely that the
average farmer must sell on
account of his poverty at least a
portion of his crop at whatever
price they may fix.
, Large American and European
_ gpinners never give themselves a
momentTs uneasiness about get-
ting their supplies, in fact they
simply reason that they will
) gettogether, sells thousands of
, bales of futures, which will put
odown the price, and as long as
~they continue to sell the lower the
ie will be, and;when they get
6 price barely where the farmer
exist they thea buy their spot
ton, realizing that over a mil-
or obales per month will be
tketed at absolutely any price
may fix, vo

A New Departure Decision.
Judge Brubaker, of Lancaster,
Pa., who is saidTto be an excel-
lent jarist, has just rendered a
decision that will attract general
attention. It was inthe case of
a wil? in which the testator
sought to preyept Jitigation by
declaring that oany beneficiary
whd should contest should be
disinherited. Such wilis have
frequently been probated in all
parts of the country. One of the
largest estates ever left by a de-
cedent in this city was distvibut-
ed under such a will. We ao not
know thatany contest of such a
will has ever been made, and the
happy device of threatening dis-
inheritance has seemed to be a
good thing for everybody outside
of the legal profession. In the
case decided by Judge Brubaker
the will in dispute charged ono
of the heirs with a note to the
estate which he asserted had been
paid during the lifetime of the
testator; but, under theterms of
the will, he was estopped from
contest. Thus situated, he laid
the matter before the court, and
Judge Brubaker has .rendered a
decision tothe effect that a will
threatening disinheritance is not
valid.
lf this decision is sound it ap-
plies as well in other States as in
Pennsylvania, for it is not based
on statutary laws, but on general
principles. And why should it
not stand? Ought it to be poss:-
ble for a threat to insure the
upresisted probation of a. will
made chiefly in theinterest of one
of the heirs and unjustly discrim-
inatipg against others? The
Philadelphia Bulletin pertinently
inquires, oIt threats may be in-.
corporated in a testament, what
assurance can there be that vici-
ous influences may not have
dictated thein"tha: is, intsrests
outsde of the parties involved?� "

The Mistake of the Life.
oT was sort of crowded out of
politics,� declared the man whose
friends at one time quoted hin
stock as good for the Presidency
of the United States. I had the
theory of the game all right
enough, but it was the effort to
practice that gradually brought
about my downfall. i lived in a
community where. there was a
good deal of wealth and progres"
sive culture, That meant social
pretensions and an adoption of
ithe popular,tads as they appear-
ed.
oI believed. and still believe:
that the successful politican must
be all things to all men. For
this reason, I professeu the most
profonnd interest in golf, state s-
manship, yachting, diplomacy,
base ball, music, cicycling, sci-
ence, business, church matters,
social functions, foot ball, good
horses, belles, beaus, bores and
everything else that any portion
of the people might fayor by
adoption:
oThe plain truth 1s that I knew
something less than nothing
about some of these subjects. &
couldn't clearly define the. differ-
ence between a home run and a
catboat, or tell whether allegro| x
was a terion used in music or hap-
pened to be the name of some
new sewing machine attachment.
By looking wise and saying little
I managed to gain favor as a
good fellow and the patron of
everything worth patronizing.
While I was at the bigh tide of
popularity there was a match
game of foot ball arranged be-
vween two of the schools, and,
Hjast to add to the eclat of the
occasion, I was chosen umpire.
Instead of pleading ilmess or an
imperitiye eneagement, 1 was
focl enough to accept. I wore a)
mask, danced around like a har, |
~lequin, and Proved about ag" )
amusiog as one to every body but
the boys. oFhey became danger-
ously mad at my meaningless
~mixing of links, courts, loyes,
wickets, wides, hard avorts, time
allowances end handicaps. I was
ignomiously fired at the end of
the first inning, and when the
boys make their kick you have
no place in politics-"Detroit

Swapped Couples in Oklahoma.
A sensational case with a fun-
ny side is reported from El Reno.
A couple arrived at the principal
hotel and registered themselves
as man and wife. In fact, they
were elopers, one having run
away from a wife and the other a
husband. In the course of a
week the injured hrsband and the
injured wife arrived from Ken-
tucky aud caused the arrest of
the pair. The deserted man and
woman had never seen each other
before, but while waiting for
requisition papers from Kentucky
they stopped at the same hotel
and formed an acquaintance.
Having common grief, they be-
came interested iz each other,
aad, on the day the requisition
papers were to arrive, they as-
tynished the officers by eloping
on their own account, going to
Texas, where they are now sup-
dosed to be. The first pair of
elopers were released from jail
and the Kentucky officer return-
home, after informing the local
paper that he ohoped a rattie~
snake would bite him if he ever
traveled a thousand miles again
to help a couple of men trade
wives.� "Kansas City Journal.
A GrandmotherTs Rules.
SomebodyTs grandmother has
bequeathed to her descendants
these admirable rules of conduct :
Ove is: Always look at the
person to whom you _ speak.
When you are addressed, look
straight at the person who speaks
to you. Do not forget this.
Another: Speak your words
plain'y ; do not mutter nor mum-
ble. Ifwords are worth saying,
they are worth pronouncing dis-
tinctly and cleariy.
Athird: Do not say disagree-
able tings. If youhave nothing
pleasant to say, keep silent.
A fourth: Think three times
before you speak once.
Have you something to do that
you find hard and would prefer
notto do? ~Then listen to wise
erandmother. Do the hard
things first and get them over
with. Uf you have done wrong,
go and confess it. If your lesson
is tough, master it. If ths garden
is to be weeded, weed it first and
play afterward. De first the
thing you donTt like to do, and
then, with a clear conscience, try
the rest. . ?

OS RS Se TT ATONE:
Foreign countries are watching
with interest the passing events
in the United States justnow. A
yearugo the free voters of our
country engaged in a. great
politic.l battle. The victory was
wop by the Republican . party,
which promised a return of pros-
perity io the country under the
adminisiration that was to berun
according to a platform of the
gold standard and a high tariff.
Recently that part of the country,
the West, which is Jargely de-
pondent on wheat as a money
product of the farm, has been
greatly improved by the advanced
price of that produet; while in
the South, where cotton is largely
the money product of the farm,
tha price has been so low, and is
still so low, that there is great
stagnation in business. And so
the see-Saw goes up and down ;
a sure and unmistakabie evidence
that the interests of the different
s-ctions of our country differ as
widely as do the products of
those sections. The western
farmer is happy over dollar wheat
aud the soutoero farmer is de-
pressed oyer low prices of cotton
and the rise in flour."Scotiand |»

Wroug End Up.
M. Calino Leving taken a farm,
he is very caretul to instruct his as-
sistants to ~(ake the proper and sys-
tematic course in all they do. ~Be
sure you begin your work at the
bottom, TT is his favorite maxim, and
heiepeats it whenever he sets his
men at work.
Lately he, had occasion to dig a
wellon the place and put to this
duty a couple of men experienced in
that line of work.
oAnd be sure,T he said to them
as they got their picks and shovels
ready, ~that you begin your work
at the bottom.�T
It was a still more curious reversal
of things, perhaps, which led one of
M. CalinoTs servants, a good woman,
to come running to him one day
with the announcement:
oQuick, monsieur! Come here!
Your little Jean bas fallen into the
ditch, and heTs into the mud up to
his ankles!�T
oUpto his ankles?� said Calino.
oWhy, thatTs nothing.�T
oOh, but I forgot to tell you,�
gaid the woman, ~~that heTs in head
first !TT"YouthTs Companion.

The mauser pistol utilizes the
force of the recoil. Thp firing con-

drawn back, while, if the trigger be
released, the weapon remains loaded
and cocked, ready for the next pull

tened together in charges of ten,
which can be quickly loaded into
the magazine. It is also made for

Counterfeiters at Work
It is evident that counterfeiters are

their spurious coins are being circu-
lated quite freety. Saturday night a
obad� fifty cent piece was passed upon
a gentleman and he has turned the

name of the man who gave it to him
over to a party who will try to work
up acase. A number of small coins
