' Southern Railway, Ravo a most lunl : 'S;r'W) exposition of ths relation of the k railroads to the people. In tho main, 'jV h treated of conditions in this aec , ;'.;Titlon. Such an addrens by the head t)f the 8outh's area tent system of ' transportation contains so much of rXV4-' Interest that tho public is entitled to tome arqualntanre with It. A Mi. Spencer begins by noting. ! '- '0 K''" frarly railway enterprises were too ''f M'-i experimental and uncertain to enlist 'VJ .v" adequate private capital, and it was f'l':'t. only SUte and governmental aid that ' . made them possible. However, al- Ui though their management was sub '1' T)- f ntantlally free from public Interfer-'''y':-K :'oce. the history of must of them 'y Vll one of bankruptcy until weak ;,.;'! and disjointed properties were w. ld ' ' eA. Into strong systems affording rnn '. ttnuous transp-riatlon and opening v. be markets of the world to Southern A . ' products. Here same tho demand. Within reasonable limits n Just de j tnand, for public regulation. Since V' Hj then the public character of the en ;r , terprlses is almost the only thing con taidered In tho political thought of j.'v -fji'; tne day, and the owners are almost forgotten. , '',- Hut however cheerfully the public '.'''-' Inay disregard the private rights In i ' i ' Volved, the rallrad manager cannot, ' n4 the necessity of protecting the h Investment committed to his care Is .;''.

'' WPon investors, and especially Is this v 'V . true of railroads at thoSouth, where .'.'l' ; the original construction was poor J-j :v:: and cheap and where the growth of V;V',"; traffic has been at an enormous rate. 1 '. ' He must convince the investor that :'V,. ' M" Investment will be safe and r jnuneratlve. If It Is made Impossible v lor him to do this, expansion of fa ' '!

In Xha Justlco of which ho acquiesces, higher-priced materials of all sorts, and heavier taxes. Yet, nhllo the laborer, the farmer, the manufactur er and the merchant aro receiving higher prices for what they have to offer, tho carrier must keep the prlco of his n)y commodity, transporta tion, at the same or lower llicurea. lie regretn that rates have hm-umo a politic ul Ui Htlon, Inxtcud of one to be decided on ei onomlc prlnrlples.

Hampton, whom South Carolina yea. tarda? honored haraelf In honorlnf, It ia Aot generally ' known ..that ha wu a mighty hunter. vWo!vea an4 panther slew In great, number, while of bean hundred perished at his' hnd literally at hi hand," for It waa hfs custom to kill them with hunting; knife after they had been brought to hay by hounds." f Of course, only a man of remarkable physical powers and address, an Well as fearlessness and lor of dangerous sport, could have don his feats. Most of General Hampton's big fame hunting was In the canebrakes of Mississippi, where b had a planta tion. Usually he followed th hounds on horse-back, and he knew no such, things as obstacles. . .. If General Hampton's achievements had been only these, however, his State would not have dedicated a monument to him. It Is for what he did In the workaday world that he is greatly honored. He did not need 1 the pinch of necessity to prevent bis pastimes making him their slave; rather, ho took the more pleasure In them because of the feeling that they were such as to fit him for a life of strenuous endeavor. A like con sciousness animated Theodore Roose velt when he ranched and hunted in tho Northwest, and Indeed the pres ent occupant of the White House knew and derived much of his early Inspiration from the South Caro linian. It was because of the virile qualities nurtured by their active sports, as well as because these taught them to shoot and ride, that tho Southorn soldiers were the finest In the world. Unless their descend ants are in haste to become degen erate they should get far away from that state of mind, usually one oi the accompaniments of sedentary habits and nervous Indigestion, which Is wont to express Itself by denouncing all sports and games requiring hardi hood as "brutal" or as "cultivating brawn at the expense of brain." Not since the most primitive ages has the physical basis of success been broader, let the "palo student" keep to his academic shades, for this hustling, tugging madern world la no place for him, and his days In It are not apt to be long. Success In nearly all lines of activity comes only to fhose who, can endure stress and strain. In no other age can It have been more truly said that the race Ja to the swift and the battle Is to the strong. There are other morals to be drawn from General Hampton's career, but none other with so much point as this. AY ESTIMATE OK 12.1S0.000. I'nder tho date of November 19 Messrs. Latham. Alexander & Co., of New York, put forth an estimate of 12,100.000 bales as the cotton crop of 190-'07. "This result." they say, "Is the average of more than 5,000 estimates addressed to us by reliable bankers, merchants, planters and cot ton buyers residents of the dlfferont cotton-growing counties In tho South, and we regard It as correct as It Is possible to obtain at this date." The crop of 190r,-'0 Is given ns 1 1.348, 000 bales. The government report of acreage this year Is stated ns 1.2S6. HS acres larger than Inst year. This paragraph Is quoted frotn the circu lar referred to: "The receipts to dale , have horn 4,2:.62 bales ugalnst 4.- 44.7C bill en st year nn lncr.ea'e of lr.s.iss, biiles, n.t with a propor tionate Increase until tho end of tho season tjo total yield of the crop would be 1 1.747.749 bales." This Is confusing to us. The total of 1 1 .7 4 7. 749 hales Just quoted nes not square with the estimate of ll.ir.O.OOO There Is r,f course an explanation of the dis crepancy but we do not understand It, unless. Indeed, Messrs. Latham.

When they turned some tarn turkeys loose In the woods for him Una other day, over In Virginia, .' he didn't, grab at tne bait at u.J-vi..r';t!1i: ,,;:.: But the episode serve ' to ' remind one of a profitable trick Mr. . jr. H. Powell plajfed on some of the Plne- huret swell ' a. msny . winters ago. Mr, Powell will not mind being told on now, whereas ha has sold iftJs B.OOO-acre 'game preserve and gone to Sanrord. He lived tn Aber deen, and (nls preserve was located some 8 or 10 miles above that place, along the Drowning creek." It Was a lovely country In places . where r ths original pine had not been' scarred. A brook ran, through it that saner Its way over a hundred little waterfalls and made shadowy pools. In whlda ferns were reflected and sllverslde went and came. But' beauty waa Incidental to Mr. Powell's purpos when he bought the ground. In his mind It was an in vestment. Should It acquire a good name as a hunting ground, he could mave money irom tn deaa-games for license to go gunning on it and mora money for acting as guide; To this end he made the offer to the winter resorter that If they went one day with blm he would guaran tee a turkey per capita for them. They were 'almost skeptical, so often had they tramped the wiregnuw in vain, but two' of them agreed that this 'once mora they would try . for turkeys. They agreed with Mr. Powell upon details, and set the day. Against th appointed time Mr. Powell purchased him two fine' gob bjerf and employed a trustworthy negro to Inandl them. "Take enough to eat In your pockets, Tom," he told the negro, "and tote these gobbUrs to that old white pine, you know, that one with tfhe three big forks, where you killed that crow. Well, just hold them there until you hear me yelp, about 10 o clock, and turn one loose. Lie right there till about 4 o'clock, and when 1 yelp again turn loose the other." Mr. Powell made good provision for his guests. It waa between dawn and sunrise when they reach ed a beautiful spring and hitched and fed their horses. "While I am cooking some break fast, gentlemen," he requested, "will you take your guns and kill me a couple of fish out of that little pond Just around the bend In tine swamp T They will go good with our eggs ana coffee." There wasn't a fish In the pond: but It entertained the men to potter expectantly about th margin, and when they came balk to tine spring breakfast was steaming and ready. There, were good ham and eggs, fine coffee and biscuit, and the best water on earth. The 10-mlle rldo had whetted their appetites, and they pronounced It the best breakfast t'ney had ever eaten. They skirted that brook, along the half-marshy but firm soil Where f ho bachelor-buttons grow, and so kept within hearing of the tinkle or the waterfalls. Tney struck across the wedge of pine woods between the brook and creek, and turned upon tho sand hills proper. Powell was happy enough to find some turkey tracks and took much apparent en- : rmirn ucmcnl from them. Here's a spot to build a blind, he told them, calling a In alt. From that point you might have seen the spreading llghtwood limbs of the old white pine (not white as to species, but color). He made a littlo arbor of brush Pnat a wild turkey would have laughed at, and told the swells to crawl under and lay their guns across the log. He crawled In between them and began yelping on his reed. In a few minutes, "Kl-google, google, google!" went one of the old barnyards, and presently his form stood confessed on top of the 'nlll, nn eighth of a mile away. It was with difficulty that Powell could restrain his men from firing. They were tremulous with excitement. The gobbler paused to listen. Powell velped again, "Key- ow. key-ow. key-ow!" The gobbler cam tilling down tho slope, Powell doing his utmost to prevent any shooting beyond THnne, for. If 'ne wer fired upon and missed and didn't fly. the fraud would bo out. When the fowl hud como within a hundred yards. on of the visiting sportsmen, eager to anticipate' the ol'ner. pulled down on him and knocked him over. lfo did not wait to hack out from under the bruh; he rose up through It and shook it from him. Ho made the hundred yards In ten seconds, fell upon the struggling turkey, and panted. "He 's mine! He 's mine!" The other fellow came up. pitifully crestfslen. Powell lonked as excited as ho possibly could. Tftrkey In hand, they meandered ,.,lw.cI1 fc,,M, n brace of birds mean-' time. Now that It was toward neon. After duo rest and recuperation tiny took a circuit that led them to the "other side of the white pine. "Here's a place," Powell snnounc- ...I .'..'I.I..V. f .fl-f4 mm SMrlw mm ! good as tho otiner.

No better play of Its kind was ever presented at the Academy of Muslo than "Tha ; Virginian," which scored a tremendous tut with a represents live Charlotte audience last nignu No flaw can. be nicked In any detail Of the play, th acting, the dialogue, scenery or what not. The atnios- pnere waa that of tne plains ana naa the audience In full sympathy from. . k. m-l - M L . ...... . "The Virginian." tne play Itself, could hardly be improved upon Dramatised from Owen Wlster's In tensely, human and not-overarawn novel. it Iomb nnne of its genuine neas of feeling, human qualities or intensity By ne process o( aramau satlon. Naturally it would not, be ing written av Mr. Winter, the au thor of the novel, and Klrae Ia Shelle. " The play la fraught with an interest cnat . breaks bounas at one climax after" another, at one time In a depth of healthy laughter and an other In a quick breath or short ex clamatlQA at a traiclc scene. Tne dialogue Is most adroitly construct ed: every Una counts and every weu filled in cause, . The actina- throughout was superb. There waa po weak member of the cast to spoil or mar any part of the presentation. It was all as natural. as intense, a if it had been on the plains and waa real life. The scenery could not have been Improved upon That In torn third act especially. Horse Thief Pass." was Illusive, and that la the second act just as nat ural as naturalness Itself. Th title, role seemed to have been created for JDustln Farnum, who has been playing in It since the play was started. In fact he did create the role as It. waa clayed last night. As tb Virrlnien. tne was every incn uie man. honest with his associates and himself, clear-vlsloned and Quick witted. Intensely but coolly In love wltn the little achooi, teaener irom Vermont, he is frequently fighting the temptation to sacrifice a small point of Inonor to win u DOlnt tn love and always retaining his point of honor and winnina- hi point ot love. Confidently he tells the girl at th first that he will make her love him staunchly, near the end, says "good bye" rather than to try to avoid tho villianous Ttampas who naa tnreat ened him. believing that the good bye meant the end of his dream ot (happiness. Farnum could not hav been better In his role. Miss Mabel Wrlertu was well-fitted for the role of Molly Wood, the Ver mont girl. ' She looked and acted the part of a descendant or a funtamcai New' England Yankee, but was al ways sweet and maidenly and frank. She had been "raised different." She waa strongest In the last act, when she pleaded wltn her sweetheart to leave with her and avoid Trampas and finally, believing with her New England mind that for him to .re main and kill his enemy would be cold-blooded murder, tells him that f he doea remain "there can be no to-morrow for us." Her expression and sobs tq tine scene were grief It self. But sll the acting was not done by Mr. Farnum and Miss Wright Frank Champeau Is the one man in the country to depict the character ot Trampas. Ho Interpreted (the part the smooth, cool vllllan to per fection. Famk Vail waa most ex cellent as Honey; Bennett Musnon pictured One weak Stev In a most capable manner; (Xiarles It. Gilbert acted the trembling, cowardly Span ish, Ed. In an inimitable way. For the rest. It may be said that every one filled their parts with the ability that made the play one of the smoothest that has come tols way. BACHKLORS' TIIE.4.TRE PARTY.
