The Savannah News says: We ven ture to say that the farmers of the South know very little from experience of hard times and of the business depres sion of which so much is said in the newspapers, though it is safe to assert t bat nine out of ten of them have heard so much about the lack of prosperity that they believe their material condi tion is steadily growing worse, instead of better. They do not Compare their material condition of ten years ago or even a year ago. with that of today. In fact, they do not inquire of themselves as to whether they are freeing them selves of debt or increasiher their debts They accept the popular opinion that the country is not prosperous, and that hence they are not prospering. If they, and many engaged in other ocouoa- t ions, were to scan the facts closely as to what their material condition was and what it is, their talk in respect to.1 the hard times would have a wholly dif ferent tone. : " The business of the country is de pressed. Business men are complain ing, but Southern farmers have no rea son to complain, and Southern business men will soon have no reason to com plain if the Southern farmers continue to prosper.

Iron Company has compromised with its J Hue Rook miners, and signed a new w utro schedule of 28 cents per ten. These mines, which are the only ones in uio mates now line, win resume at once, giving employment to 1,000 men. y ! The People Burned to Death. Near Malvern Hill, in Henrico Coan ty. U., a nefro woman, the wife of tot! xtoberts, a small fanner, was burned to death along with their two smau cnuaren in a neap. The Situation Looks WorseBlood shed and Riot May Prevail, lite situation at the Coffeen mine, in Illinois, has changed for the worse. Strikers have arrived from different points and eight hundred are now there. A number of arraafca of atrikera have been made and the prisoners taken to Hillsboro tor trial. One striker from Mount Olive was bound over to keep the peace. In de fault of bond he was sent to jail. This tended to incite the strikers and a num ber of small fights and difficulties oc curred. General Bradley is on the ground. He says every miner in the district has been ordered to Coffeen to prevent work. Sheriff Handle, in anticipation of trouble, sent for additional deputies. Nearly every man in Coffeen is on duty, with many from Hillsboro. Twenty-five armed defuties have been ordered from Nokomis and fifty from Hillboro. They are to proceed immediately to Coffeen. The sheriff has an armed force of two hundred. Every striker is armed with a short stick. Those thus far arrested had re volvers. The request of Sheriff Handle to Gov. Tanner to send State troops was refus ed on the ground that the sheriff had not exhausted his resource. From the general appearance here the sheriff should be able to control the strikers by using good judgment and coolness. But aggressive acts on the part of his deputies will cause an excited condi tion of affairs and may precipitate riot and bloodshed. ASSASSIN BULLET Lays Low the Prime Minister of Spain. A cablegram from Madrid, Spain, of the 18th, says: Senor Canovas del Castillo, prime minister of Spam, was assassinated today at Santa Agueda by an anarchist. The murderer fired three shots, one of which struck the premier in the forehead and another in the chest. The wounded man fell dviner at the feet of his wife, who was with him, lingering in agony for an hour and then paseiner awav with the crv of "Lone live Spain." which were the last words upon his lips. hanta Acueua is noted for its baths. The place is between San Sebastian, the summer residence of the, Spanish court, and Vittoria, the capital of the provinco of A lava, about 30 miles south of Bilboa. The premier went there last Thursday to take a three weeks' course of the baths, after which he expected to return to San Sebastian to meet United States Minis ter Woodford when that gentleman should be officially received by the queen regent. Ihe assassin was immediately arres ted. He is a Neapoliton and gives tho name of Rinaldi, but it is believed that this is an assumed name and that his real name is Michele Angino Golli. Ihe murderer declares that he killed Senor Canovas "in accomplishment of a just vengeauce," and that the deed is the outcome of a vast anarchist conspir acy. The Strike at Atlanta. The strike situation at the Fulton I3ag and Cotton Mills, Atlanta, (la, assumed a more serious phase on the i Hi. I i.'ii the operatives demanded a iued statement from Mr. Elsas that be would remove nil nesrro laborers. The presideut refused. He discharged the negro women who were the im mediate cause of the trouble, but would not put out his old laborers. The strikers refused to return. The mills are now silent, but President Elsas says he will advertise for new oper atives. Later. The strike at Atlanta has been settled and the operatives has re turned to work ; President Elsas says uo white women were discharged, but tie uegro women were emp oyed be cause sufficient whites could not be secured. Arbitrated By Hoke Smith. The hie strike of the Fulton Bag and Cotton Mills operatives in Atlanta. Ga , was the work of former Secretary of Interior Hoke Smith. The strike was the most serious labor difficulty that has developed in Atlanta in recent years, and as it involved the troubles of the necro question, an adjustment was difficult. Disinterested parties in duced the strikers' committee and i. lent Evans, of the company, to meet in Mr. Smith's office, however, and with the former secretary acting as arbitrator an agreement was reached on terms suggested by him. Tho settle ment is regarded as a victory for the principle of arbitration in labor dis poses. Bunk Dividends Declared.

Representatives of 25,000 Jewish trades unionists, in a convention in New York, have voted to join tha Debe movement, or Social DaBaetfasry J America. A St. TxxMb man lAt pleturesqua name, who Is at the IU oi a million aire dry goods firm In that city and las, also president of the Sunday School) Teachers' Union there, has been ar retted in New York on the charge of' trying" to smuggle diamonds. When be landed from the steamer $8,000 worth of the gems were found concealed In a belt around his waist He tedkgnantly - denies that he intended to smuggle and says that the diamonds were intended, as presents for the members of tlx Sunday School Teachers' Union. Had and a companion had declared that they had but $25 worth of dutiable goods ou their persons. Hie partner at ; home says that someone will pay deac- ly for the outrage, meaning the arrest,.: and that if the arrested man bad dtrtia- ble goods he was lguorant of that fact. Here is a man who Imports many thou- sands of dollars' worth jof goodT every; year, and who probably knows the schedule almost by heart, trying toi evade the law and setting up the pleas of ignorance" when detected. Wbat sort; of an example Is this for a respected' man to give thcpublle? What would he do to one of his clerks whom he caught taking goods from the store at less than the regular rate or below cost?.

Tbe blader was created for one pur pose, namely, a receptacle for the urines and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way Is imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from carelesnmVcal treatment of othser diseases. CHIEF CAUSE Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So thewomb, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases.
