A special from Jackson, Miss., places the dam age at 300,000 bales or $12.000,· 000. From Montgomery comes the report of great damage to tracks, wreckage of grain elevator at Peusacola, loss of trackage to Escambia bay and 39 cara of coal washed into the bay. Passengers srriving here this morning from Mississippi points tell of great loss to crops in the section through which their train passed. Sidney. Onuand, the veteran newspaper man, who left Vicksburg Wednesday ar rived here this morning, steles that the train was made to rock by the violence of the storm. Atlanta, in commnnicatipo with New Orleans by wireless telegraphy, has received · re port of a heavy wind and storm there last night. Vessels bave been warned not to leave the harbor. Mobile haa not been beard from this · morning. Georgia was not much hnrt by the storm, except by dsmage to cotton in southern Georgia.

Washington, Sept. 28.—It ia stated at the weather bureau that the storm now centers over Little Rock, Ark.*, headed in the direction of the Great Lakes, bat with steady decreasing force. Telegrams have been pouring into the bureau irotn persons io· terested in the cotton industry, inquiring iuto the damage done The extent has not yet been learned, bat it is feared that the growing crop has been se riously interfered with.

Reports of several railroad wrecks, all unconfirmed, came into Pensacola while I was there " The storm in Birmingham hat baa been very severe and the rain précipitât too la (he last M hours aras the heaviest in tests. No serious damage was done. The Spencer correspondent of several daily papers has been informed by them (hat they do not care for any more news item· about the deaths of negroes killed in that seek of the woods, as it has become so common that U is no !onrer news for a negro to meet violent destk sad the space is needed for mnfeh mora valuable stuff.

Lincolnton, Sept. 27.—Τ b e tiu mining industry is now cre sting qnitc an interest in thi» section oi the state, Two mine* within three mile· of thi· pUcc •re now being operated by tbe Fiedinont Tin Mining Co., oi Atlanta, G·., and local capita) ia largely invested. Tbe nice· are on tbe Long Sboala road and on tbe property known aa tbe Jobn and Henry Carpenter places. Tbe writer viaitcd tbe mines yesterday in company with a friend. Alter arriving there we looked ap Mr. Aader· son Carpenter, who bas charge of tbe intnea. Mr. Carpenter took us through the mines and explained tbe work, which ia in· teresting. First we went down tbe shaft to the 40-foot level, where we found about 1,000 feet of tunneling tbat was traversed. We found this to be very rich with ore. Tbere are four veins in these tunnels that contain from one to twenty per cent of tin ore. After having the 40-foot level explained, we descended to tbe 110·foot level, which we found to be cat into solid rock and dripping with cold water. They were preparing for bleat ing: in this tunnel, so we didn't remain but a few tainates Mr. Carpenter s a y { these mines will be a great thing for this part of the stale, as tbe ore is very valuable and it is a pay ing business. This is ona of tbe best industries in this section of the State and tbere are bright prospects for tbe future prosoct· ity of the county. * · *»».·*. «•••iW* WVIC U^UCVi IUC first of last November and have been worked with increasing success (since that date. The two mioes arc witbin three· quarters of a mile of each other and on adjoining estate·, which makea them convenient to work. The company is now preparing to put in first-class machinery for turning ont the tin from the ore, and if this proves as sac· ceasfal as it is expected it will be a bright plnme added to the crown of industry in Lincoln county. * A Lag Worth Mara Thaa a Man. YaftvtlU Rtxjelrrr. Jesse James, the noted oat law's son, is at the age of thirty, one ol the most talented aad re spected lawyers of Kansas City. In a claim case that he recent ly won, Mr. James told an amosiog story. "There was a woman," he aaid, "whose husband was killed in a railway accident. The railroad, to avoid sait, gave her $5,000 damages. "The sum satisfied the wo man ; bat a month or two after ward, taking np a newspaper, she read about a man who had lost bis le» in the same accident, and, beloldl this man was given by the company damages to the amount of $7,500. "It made the woman mad. She baatened at once to the office of the railway's claim adjuster. She said bitterly : How la this? Hera yon give a man $7.500 for the loss of hit leg, wnile yon only gave me $5,000 for the loss of my hus band. "The claim adjuster smiled amiably, and said (n *a soothing voice; "Madam, the reason is quite plain. The $7,500 won't ptovlde the poor man with a new leg, whereas, with y oar $5.000, yon can easily cet a new husband, and perhaps a better one." MlHtUM TltMEM. C'w ΜΜΜΓτηΖΓΐίιΙί!·"1 MIm WHIarS AUkm. «a M—· ΜΗ. The conclusive lytaptom of chronic inebriety is delirium tremens, 'the horror»," tan Mr. Hilburn. None bat the troc inebriate gets it, tad most inebriates get ft soooer or later, though some escspe the acta·! delirium that ia it# typical Ira· tare. It moat not be coafased with alcoholic insanity, the vi olant dementia brought on fa aome pcnoni by amounts of al cohol often too email to canae intoxication. Τ r a e delirium tremens ia literally the result of aoaking t It cornea oa when tha tiaanea are saturated with alco hol. U anally Η appears at the end of a long apree, or. ia the case of · steady drinker, whoa be haa been taking more than bis nanal allowance. Bnt m al cohol remains in the tiaauea from three to eight days, the da· liriam may develop aoma time after the spree; wherenpoe the victim nsaally ascribes it to tha fact that be gave op alcohol aad took to «rater. It is a state of col la pee, iaaomaia, trembling, acute terror aad aanally violent delirism, which laats from two to five days. "Menagerie de lirium," the vision of violet mice and indeaceul anakea generally «opposed to prevail, fa not com· mon, snakes beiag rarer tboa other animals. The ordinary delirium Centera about the naual occupation of the patient. Its violence can be judged by die degree to which bis visions are independent of bis will, and by the terror they cause him. A tea merer, for in stance, usually drives horses ia his delirium. If tbey obey him be will get well, but if they hack againtt his orders, or bolt, he b thrown into a state of extreme terror, and ia pretty certaia to Mm' In later recurrences the ex perienced drinker it often mn of kit condition, and watches hitewn hallucination a, with a sort of impersonal «maternent. The supposedly harm let· malt liqaort are tlower in bringing on delirium tremena than wbltkejr, bat otaally brine on ogher at tack·. Contrary to genera] opin ion, they are rcapowiMe' for a conaidcrable ahare of the in ebriety of thic country. Some yean ago Dr. Charka L Dana, at that time visiting pbyticiao to Bellevne Hotpital, recorded the form of liquor η ted by near ly 200 inebriate patienta. A third drank whitkey, nearly a third beer and whisker «ad a quarter malt liqoors altogether. The teat took anything that contain ed alcohol. There are virtually no wine-drinking inebriate· in thia country. OiirCkuct !>■<. Mr. H.
