It is said that Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, doesn't know the value of money and is just as apt to give a street beggar a ten dollar gold piece as a quarter, if his hand strikes.it first when he dives into his pocket, which he always does when he meets a beggar. " The Chicago Inter-Ocean thinks the Republicans of New, York should be able to find some young, unsus pected Republican in New York fo carry their banner to victory. The trouble is those "unsuspected" are all too young to be ot much use in carrying banners. Mississippi papers say the planters of that State are in a better condi tion, to stand low, prices this year than formerly, because wUh the low price of farm stock, supplies, &c, they have been able to make their crops at about 25 per cent. less cost than informer years. jJj Of six Japanese subjects educated by their Government at the Naval Academy at Annapolis, four are now in the Japanese navy, one a rear admiral, one a commander, one a captain and one a lieutenant. Per haps this accounts for some of their good shooting. The oleomargarine business is one that has not only held its own de spite the depression in other things, but has been progressing right along. In 1890 the exports of oleomargarine amounted to 2,535,926 pounds, and of oleo oil 68,218,098 pounds; in 1894 there were 3,882,141 pounds of oleomargarine and 123,295,815 pounds or oleo oil. l be average monthly production has increased from 2,800,000 pounds in 1887 to 1890, to more tharwSGOO.OOO pounds in 1893 and 1894. The internal rev enue collected from it for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1894, was $ly 723,489. . 1 Mrs. Dominis. ex-Queen Lil, of Hawaii, will now try to content her self if this Government will give her " -fa pension. If the Republican party J' was in power she night stand some chance for that as President Harrl son suggested something of that kind, about $20,000 a year. As the - Republican party is not in power she , had better turn her attention to Mr. .V- Dole's Government. Perhaps she might get about $7 a month out of that,; which would buy about all the provisions she needs,as they are cheap in Hawaii. But she would nave to put on less style, and curb her pro pensity or fun, etc. HE VOL. LIV.NO. 115. r China is the only nation in the world which does not "-enjoy the luxury of a national debt, and the only one, it is said, where every sane man caft read and write. They are the most patient, industrious people in the world; if they were not they could never learn to write in that language. ' ' The total immigration for the fiscal year ending June 30, was 311,404, against 497,936 for the previous year a very healthy fall ing off. ' This is the lowest showing since 1879, when-the number was 177,820.. j, Charles Mcllvaine, a fungi expert, says he has made square . meals out of four hundred different kinds of toadstools and was never once poi sdned. Perhaps he is provided with a sewer instead of a stomach. j During the past forty-six years the proprietors of the Parker House, in Boston, have paid out $8,188,906 for edibles for that hasherie and there wasn't $1,000 worth of beans in the lot. Estimates on the wheat crop for this yea range all the way from 385, 000,000 to 490,000,000 bushels. This is a big country and the guesser has plenty of latitude. Senator Gorman and a few other Senators are Trust-ies, but they will bear a good deal of watching. j NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Cyrene At Hilton Park. : J. H. Rehder & Co. Bargain day. A. D.

Jjsdiea' Tournament at Merlon, K. C. The Record gives the following des cription of a ladies' tournament which took place last week: "All the young ladies looked lovely without a single ex ception,, and the riding was excellent. Miss Yancey was adiudged the prize. amidst rounds orapplause as the most skillful and graceful rider, while Misses McKesson and Sinclair competed for the prize for fast riding. Misses Cutlar and Davis of Wilmington were marshal and bugler for the occasion, and very gracefully did they fulfil their office. Alter the competition -of the races, the young ladies formed a column of twos and paraded the streets. The costumes won the admiration of all whor beheld them. At night the tournament partici pants held a reception at Mr. D. W. London's residence. Each young lady called a young man out on the back porch with an air of mystery about it, and they all marched into the parlor and required the young men to kneel, the young ladies, much to tbe surprise and delight of their escorts, placed a beautiful wreath or crown upon their foreheads with the words 1 crown thee king, after which refreshments were served and were much enjoyed. ' Maglatrate'i Court. Charles Daniel alias Scott, alias Mc- Koy, a colored man, was brought before Justice I. M. McGowan, charged with stealing a lot of provisions from Mr. H. L, Dean, toll-gate keeper on the turn pike, stealing money and clothing from Albert Jones, colored, a watch and a coat from Wm. Nixon, colored, and a pair of pants from H. Royall, colored. Daniel was also charged with carrying a con cealed weapon. He is supposed to be one of the gang of thieves who have been robbing residences and stores in the city recently.; After, investigation of thelcbarges the , magistrate commit ted Daniel to jail, to await the action of the Criminal Court, in default of bail, which amounted in the aggregate to $500. This morning. Justice McGowan will investigate the case of Wm. Page and Sam White (both colored), charged with larceny, and arrested yesterday by offi cers Sbeehan and Wood. Bxouraioniata.

The Views of BuyerHe Thinks the Pas- ton Cannot Hold Cmt-The Standard Oil Company Said to Be Taklnn e Head. Another view of the "situation in the Savannah turpentine market is thus given by theiArfBJ.- r r-..." To all appearances the naval stores fight has not yet been concluded, The buyers are taking a 'determined stand, and continue to say they have no orders for turpentine at 28 cents a gallon. . ; One of them said yesterday that very little had been said about ' the- buyer's side of the contest, and on this account r a the impression had been spread that the I factors were winning everything, hands down, which, he says,' is by no means the case., '- V: f i-v" ' -' "; ; - "The reported large sale of spirits at 28 cents." be said, "was not made at alL Only 1,000 barrels were sold at 28 cents to place the,market, while 10,000 barrels were sold at 27U cents Instead of 20.000 at 28 cents, as was reported. This is the true state of that deaL and instead of holding out at 28 cents it can be seen that they did not do it from the start. PREDICTS INLAND BUYING. ; "The factors are hurting themselves and the producers by the stand they have taken to a greater extent than they will ever be able to benefit them. The producers will suffer from the reaction which is bound to come on account of the heavy stocking of the port. The ac tion of the factors will lead to interior buying. I would not be surprised to see agents at almost all of the cross-road towns within a comparatively short time, and the result will be to the detriment of Savannah, as the first naval stores port of the world. ; Consequent on this heavy stocking of the port are dangers and losses which ought to be taken into account. With 62,000 barrels of spirits here the total leakage must be something unusual. while the insurance being paid out is rap idly piling up. The warehouses are over stocked, and there are cars which cannot be unloaded. With this state of affairs comes tne danger irom anre, wnicn, should it break out in this large quantity of spirits, could hardly be checked un less caught in its very incipiency, and which would be a terrible menace to a great deal of the property Of the city. lhe buyers are not going to take tbe spirits at the price quoted, and they are not in as great need of it as tne factors claim. HEAVY DOMESTIC SHIPMENTS PRE DICTED. One of the factors said yesterday that they had chartered two vessels, the barques Noe and Emtlie, which would probably be loaded by tbe first of next week, and that they would ship the stuff direct, t ; I "We will sell in a moderate way," he Said, "at 38 cents. The Iris will clear in a day or two with- 8,500 barrels from this port,; and with 2.600 barrels from Wilmington, which will go to Antwerp, ! "Heavy shipments to the West and by the coastwise steamers may be looked foriera-few days. -The business is not active as yet by any means, but we are satisfied it will hold its own. All the available freight room on the New York steamers have been chartered for the next two weeks, and it is highly prob able that this freight room: will be loaded with spirits of turpentine. ' Another factor reiterated the state ments made with regard to the large deal, and said the amount sold was 20.000 barrels. I From the statements made about the heavy domestic shipments it looks as if the Standard Oil Company had a hand in tne transaction, as this concern is known to do about the largest domestic shipping business in spirits. This, too, is being talked among some ot the buyers. It remains as yet to be seen what will be the outcome ; of the situa tion. I ' MR.. MYERS RESTING; QUIETLY. He ia Eeoeivina Erery Cere end Attention Anxloni Frlenda Can Beato-w. Anxious friends called hourly yester day at Mr. T. L. Alexander's, says the Charlotte Observer of yesterday, to as certain the : condition of Mr. J. . M. Myers, who was shot by Mr. Fred Oliver Monday morning. Dr. Misenheimer was seen early by the Observer, and said the patient - was ; resting comfortably." . He was then asleep. Since being wounded Mr. Myers has not been able to lie down. He sleeps in ' a chair, j Yesterday he walked from one room to another, but made no effort to try to leave the house. He has not 'asked anything about Mr. Oliver nor the trouble, and no one has mentioned it to him. The yoong men of the city .have nursed him faithfully. Two or three of them have been with him day and night. The; advisability of taking him to tne hospital was discussed yesterday, but it will be some days yet before he could be removed. His mind yesterday seemed perfectly clear. He acted rationally and was quiet and easily controlled. Mr. Meyers' friends are all deeply grieved at his condition and tbe results of his state of mind. He is well known as one of the best salesmen who travel in the South, and is held in such esteem by the house he travels for that he would be in no danger of losing his position though he should not be-able for a year to attend to business. He has always been generous to a fault, is a willing and effective worker in his occupation and cherished a warm memory of any kind ness shown him. He has the good will and sympathy of all right-minded people, and it is hoped that he will soon be in shape to take up his work again. At HUton Ferk To-Nisbtl ! Mile.
