I CLOSING lit FOR A FINISH. Mrs. W. H. Fslton tn Atlanta Journal. 1 am not apprised m to other people's feelings on the subject, but I do hope the Russo-Japanese war is n earing close. The loss of life is so great, suf fering so terrible and tbe devastation so immense, it convinces One that a quick campaign and decisive battles are the most merciful and humane. The tide of victory has been wiA Japan from the start, and Japan's contention seems to be the most equitable and merito rious in the matter. - The peninsular on which Fort Arthur is situated belonged to China as a part of Manchuria. When China and Japan went to war ten rears ago, Japan captured Fort Arthur, and a great deal more territory in addition. Some of the greatest world powers notably Eagland, Germany and Russia, prevented Japan from enuring in upon the possession of the territory. It was a sort of jealous compact be tween these world-powers to keep J pan out of Chinese limits. While China was unable to protect mile of her own territory by military prowess, these jealous world powers propose to keep Japan at arms-length, under the plea of good wi 1 to China; but in re ality, all of them expected to take out a good-sized slice of China's territory at a tilting opportunity, and make off with it. Japan learned a lesson in so-called diplomacy, and has never forgotten for day or an hour the combination which robbed the Mikado of what he had won fairly and honorably, so far as war is honorable or fair, in compelling results. Japan has never ceased to make preparation for another set-to, since these world-powers so deceitfully UBed her. And when Russia deliberately en tered Manchuria, built a railroad to Fort Arthur and fortified the place which Japan had captured from China, then the Japanese, young and old, rich and poor, noble and peasant, men and women, determined to teach Cossack' Russia a lesson worth remembering. And the instruction has been applied in a way that Russia will never forget the lesson! The Rusaian and Japanese soldiers have had an even chance in this bloody war on the Peninsula thus claimed by Rucsia. If anything was overplus, Rus sia had the advantage, because of pos session, and transportation facilities. The world at large understands that Russia has no right to this territory ex cept as "might makes right," and now that Japan has successfully hemmed in the Russian troops and scattered the Russian fleet disaster, it is the concen sus of the world's opinion that Russia has been justly rebuked for illiberality in dealing with Japan, and unholy lust for China's territory. When Fort Arthur falls, everybody will feel as if Japan had come into her own once more; for unless China could regain her lost prestige and control her own possessions, Russia had certainly no business to assume ownership and thus prevent Japan. As the matter now stands, nobody will be disposed to lament with Russia, granting that some may not rejoice with Japan. Tar Heela Loot Store. Reidsviixe, Sept 14. When the train loaded with the First Regiment, North Carolina soldiers stopped here this morning en route home from the army maneuvers at Manassas, several of the men left the car and proceeded to loot some o the nearby stores. Ed. Miller's place was entered and some thing over $100 worth of goods taken by the militiamen. Wm. Young's saloon was not Overlooked during the line of march and that concern's stock of intoxicants was greatly reduced. Other merchants had enough fore thought to lock up their places of busi ness, and stay away until the sold wars took their departure. Mayor Watt says he will notify Governor Aycock and put in a claim for damages. The other soldiers Were quite orderly, none giving Reidsville people any trouble save the North Carolinians. It Mt HI.

A New York cotton broker who, some months ago, was busily engaged in holding down prices greatly to bis subsequent sorrow and impoverishment and who is now bulling the market with equal energy, has recently issued a circular, explaining his belief in an early boom for the market. Of course, we have no means of knowing whether ootton will go up or down this year, but it is sufficiently obvious that this gentleman's information is about as inaccurate now at it was before : "There is no possible prospect that the coming crop will show an increase over that of 1890 commensurate with the increase in acreage. The reason for this is not hard to find. While the increase in acreage in the South for the past fourteen years has been 63 per oent., the increase in the negro pop ulation in the South during the same period has only been 24 per cent., and in Texas, Oklahoma and Indian Terri tory the increase in acreage since 1890 is 124 per cent., while the increase in the negro population is only 45 per cent. Experience has proved that un der the hot Southern suns the negro alone can be used for the cultivation of cotton, and the rapid industrial de velopment of the South has drawn heavily upon the negro population for labor in its mines, lumber camps and railways." Here again is the long-ago exploded fallacy that the. ootton crop is pro duced by negro labor, and that every reduction of the volume of that labor means a corresponding curtailment of the crop. Nothing could be more non sensical. As far back as 1885 The Times-Democrat, of New Orleans, showed by unassailable statistics-that more than half the cotton crop was produced by white labor, and since then the proportion hss steadily in creased. To-day it may be asserted with entire safety that at least three-, fifths of the crop is the result of the bite man's industry. The "hot Southern suns" are a mere figure of speech, a superstition. Every intelli gent person in the cotton belt knows that this is true. And the fact is that if every negro, now residing in the Southern States were to move North to morrow there would be very little disturbance of the industry, even first, and none at all after a year or two. Southerners like the negro as laborer. They are conservative; they are used to him, and they have no taste for radical experiments. But who so imagines that the South's welfare de pends upon tbe black man is utterly mistaken, and he who speculates in cotton with negro labor as his basis will go broke as surely as the sun shines above this free and happy land. Bsisls Defers Her Hopes This Year, "The troops on both sides are rest ing. ' luis information from the AS' sociated Press correspondent at Mukden came in a dispatch filed at 10:55 p. m Saturday night, and coupled with re ports reports received at St. Petersburg Saturday from General Kuropatkin and Lieutenant General Sskaharoff, report ing fighting Thursday and Friday, in dicates that since Thursday, because of the torrential rains and heavy roads, hostilities have been reduced to minimum. The rear guard of the Russians has succeeded in taking most of its trans port and guns through Mukden. The Japanese, however are reported going by the railroad, and a force under Gen era! Kuroki is in the bills east of Muk den. - A St. Petersburg dispatch says the War Office is reluctantly disposed to admit that Wu'a the defeat of the Rus sinus at Liao Yang practically all hope of turning the tide of the war this year departed, that Kuropatkin must retire, await re-enforcements and prepare for a new campaign next year. No word is heard in St Petersburg looking in the direction of peace, however. Chinese reports received at Mukden estimated the Japanese force in the battle of Liao Yang at 300,000 men, of whom 70,000 were Chinese and Koreans. General Kuroki reports that after the battle of Sept 5, Russians took 10,000 wounded to Mukden, leaving 3,000 in he vicinity to Liao Yang. No official figures on the losses at the, battle of Liao Yang have been given outv Werklaa: Overtime. Eight honr laws are ignored by those tireless, little workers Dr. King's New life Pills.

NO FBH1ALR ANGELA. Chirlotts Observer. Rev. Dr. Kaylor, of Westminister, Long Island, recently laid down this proposition to his congregation: "Most people's idea of an angel iajpf a beau tiful, graceful, hite-robed female fig ure with wings on either shoulder, peacefully floating through the air. I want to say there are no female an gels." He may be right There are religious books, and some hymns which have done much to darken counsel, and "most people," when they were children, derived their ideas of angels from pictures and paintings, in which the angel are almost invariably if nof always represented as ladies. But The Charleston News and Courier dis sents energetically from the proposition of tbe the Long Island preacher. "As a matter of fact," says "a theological ipse dixit of this character proves noth ing. There is no reason for presuming that Dr. Kaylor has any light on the subject of the sex of the blessed that has not been vouchsafed in others. It is true, we believe, that the Scriptures nowhere mention a female angel while they do record the names of a few whom we have some reason for believ ing belonged to the opposite sex. But this is hardly sufficient ground upon which to base the conclusion reached by Dr. Kaylor." The News and Courier itself offers a better reason in support of Dr. Kaylor's theory than he does himself, in fact he offers none at all. When it says that "some people may suggest that an argument in his favor is supplied by Revelations VIII, where it is distinctly declared, 'and when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for the space of half an hour; but it does not regard this aa conclusive; and though the point is an exceedingly clever one our contemporary offends us to the soul and brings shame to every Seceder by the exhibition of his lack of early train ing in designating the last book in the Bible as "Revelations." But this is be side the question and we are not going into the controversy, leaving it tA be settled as best they can by the Long Island parson and the Charleston elder, Rockefeller, Jr., Wants Ills Bible data (he Largest in tbe i; ul led Mates. New York, Sept. 12. It is the am bition of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., to make his Bible class in the Fifth Ave' nue Baptist Church the largest and most notable in the United States and he is looking forward to the opening of the first Sunday in October with great expectation. He has instructed J. M. Troxell, president of the class, to send an ex tended letter to every member request ing bim to bnng as many friends as possible to the opening session with the object of getting the young men in With this circular letter Mr. Rocke feller has forwarded another letter from 2G Broadway, urging the members to be on hand for the fall and winter season. President Troxell's letter opens with this quotation: 'Jesus invites His saints to meet around His board.' After a careful re' vision of the rolls we find that the class contains hardly 400 active members, One member thinks it should not be a hard matter to close this term with a membership of 1,000 active members between the ages of 18 and 45 As now organized 1,000 members can be looked after just as well as smaller number. Ask the pastor of your home church or the principal of your school or college to send you the name of any young men whom they happen to know are in Natr xork, so you can bring them in during tbe first few months." With this circular letter Mr. Rocke feller baa forwarded a personal letter over his own signature to each mem ber of the class calling on turn to be present and reiterating tbe importance of having him assist in the work. The letter, Mr. Rockefeller said, will aid materially in increasing the interest in the membership of the class. A Pablle BenefacaSr uHally wins the thanks and enjoys the confidence of the public.

Church-going people sooner or later learn the names of the books of the Bible, even they aa well a9 the literary personooking for historical facts find it difficult to repeat them in order un lessouie thread of interest hold them together. Here is a set of rhymes which may be used with success : OLD TESTAMENT. The great Jehovah speaks to us In Genesis and Exodus ; Leviticus and Numbers see, Followed by Deuteronomy ; Joshua and Judges rule the land ; Ruth gleans the sheaf with trembling hand ; Samuel and numerous Kings apper Whose Chronicles we wondering hear ; Ezra and Nehemiah now Esther, the beauteous maiden, show ; Job speaks in sighs, David in Psalms, And Proverbs teach to scatter alms ; Ecclesiastes then oomes on And the sweet Song of Solomon ; Isaiah, Jeremiah, then With Lamentations takes his pen, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea's lyres Swell Joel, Amos, Obediah'i ; And lofty Habakkuk finds room ; Zephaniah, Haggai calls, Rapt Zachariah builds his walls ; And Malachi, with garments rent, Concludes the ancient Testamnt. NEW TESTAMENT. This is the way tbe gospels run : Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Then come the Acts, inviting you The apostolic church to view ; The Romans and Corinthians are To cities sent, renowned afar ; Galatians and Ephesians then, Write by the same inspired pen ; Philippians and Colossiana stand With Thessalooians cloee at band ; Timothy leads to Titus on ; This brings us down to Philemon ; The Hebrews then we gladly find, And that of James comes close behind To Peter then our thoughts we give ; With loving John we wish to live ; Pious Judge will pierce the soul, And Revelations close the whole. f Wheat Predicted. uhicaqo, sept, n. "Wheat at 12 a bushel before next May" was roared by the bulls to-day on the board of trade. At the opening there was an excited demand for wheat for few traders ven turing to sell. Those who wished buy shouted bids of 2 cents a bushel above the prices prevailing at the close of the market Saturday and the quan tity that any order would sell even at such a tempting advance was extremely limited. Of winter and spring wheat pioduced this year in the United States it was contended there is barely enough for bread and seed if every bushel of was available which is not possible, and the country is therefore face to face with the necessity of bringing in for eign wheat to. help keep the wolf from the door till another harvest shall have been raised. As the session advanced, prices rose still higher, the demand from shorts, which caused the initial spurt being augmented by heavy buying by com mission houses. At the high point of the day all deliveries showed a gain of 4 cents or more as compared with Sat urday's final quotations. The sens tional strength was maintained up to the last moment of trading.
