One of the odd effects of the recent
labor troubles was to make doubly
popular the novels of Charles Reade
among the reading classes iu labor
circles, states the Chicago Herald. A
Hartford bookseller explains the fact
apou the ground of the popular treat
ment by Reade of the labor trouble!
ia England in several of his well
known book?.
Americans who go house-hunting in
London are kept in a etate of chronic
surprise at the scarcity of bath-rooms
in English house?, declares Harper's
Weekly. A big house, which in New
York would have four or five bath
rooms, in London gets along with one.
The Briton must have his tub, but he
18 satisfied with that. He does not
care apparently to wallow in water as
the American does. Or perhaps it is
that water is scarcer in England than
here, and dearer, more particularly
in London, than in New York. Oj
there may be still another reason
that it takes more servants to admin
ister a system of tubs in a large house
than to look after three or four bath
rooms. It is easy to understand how
anything thn minimizes houseservice
would recommend itself to Americans,
while Londoners might be perfectly
content with more primitive appli
ances skilfully applied.
The New York Tribune remarks:
There is a goal deal of talk in certain
quarters, mainly troai psopla who
think themselves wiso above what is
written and who take keen delight in
their half-knowledge, advarsa to the
used of the bicycle by women. The
oharge that it is immodest for women
to ride the bicycle is not deserving of
serious attention. A modest woman
is as modest on a wheel as in a drawing-room,
and even if she wears what
are collectively classed as "oloomars"
her costume is not as deserving of no
tice as the bathing suits which women
wear unchallenged at all our seaside
resorts. The question whether bi-cycle-riding
is injurious to women's
health is most important one; the
answer can only K given as tne result
of experience. Undoubtedly harm
has been done by excessive riding;
but so it may bs cause ! by toj much
walking or rowing. The general tes
timony seems to be that tha use of the
bicycle iu moderation is beneficial to
women, au l in some cases the result i
have been found exceedingly good.
Eiercis-j on the wheel is sj exhilarat
ing that beginutrs are doubtless often
tempted to ride too much. Against
this they should be warned; but the
bicycle rightly employed will iu all
probability promote health aul hap
piness. Special orders issued by General
Elwcll S. Oti, cornnna.iing tho De
partment of the Columbia, suggest to
to New York Suu that it is not neces
sary to go to the Arctic or to Africa
in order to find regions that require
exploring. States already in this
Union contain great tracts that have
yet to be adequately mapped, even if
they have ever felt tha pressure
of the white nrin's foot. Va
der these orders, Lieuteaint C.
P. Elliott, Fourth Cavalry, is to in
vestigate "certain unknown country
in the Clearwater River section of
Idaho." The general direction of his
expedition is to be from Walla Walla
to Lewistown ; thence to Weippe, and
over tha Lolo trail to Indian Post
office; thence in a southerly direction
to the basin of the Middle Fork of the
Clearwater. There a camp will be es
tablished, and journeys male in vari
ous directions to "determine, as far
as practicable, the sources and direc
tions of important streams, the con
figuration and character of the coun
try, and feasible routes of travel, if
any exist." The expedition may be
absent as long as 6ixty days. At the
aame time Lieutenant James A. Ley
den, Fourth Infantry, with a similar
outfit, his men being mounted, armed
and furhhhed with a half dozen pack
mules, is to explore the adjoining
region. The main direction of his
travel will be from Fort Sherman to
Old Mission, thence on the Mullan
trail to some point near Superior, aal
across the divide to the headwater of
the North Fork of the Ciearwater, and
eo down the Lolo trail to New Mis
sion, on Hangman's Creek, coming oat
again at Fort Sherman. This ia to
obtain information of the topographi
cal features of a region "concerning
whic'j little at present w known."
The adventurous days when expedi
tions of this character ran some risi
of conflict with wild Indians may havo
passed away, lut the charms of dis
covery are net exhausted, and when
enough is known about Idaho, atten
tion can be turned to other localities.
Alaska, for example, is likely to furn

A BRECKINRIDGE FIGHT.
Desha Uses a Dirk on J. D. Livingston.
LsxisGToy, Kt. Desha Breekin
i .dge had a sensational altercation witi,
fames Duanne Livingston, formerly ol
New York City, in the Phoenix Hotel
Friday afternoon. Livingston was
standing at the news and cigar stand,
reading an afternoon paper, when
Desha Breckinridge came ij and
I bought a package of cigarettes. Liv-
j iigston spoke to Desha and extended
his hand, saying: "It is all over now;
ve ought to befriends. Shake hands."
i Breckinridge, with hn angry look on
his face, replied: "No, you one horse
scoundrel, I will not take your hand.
i You profess to be a man's friend and
I hen stab him in the back."
I They finally came to blows and
Desha reached for his hip pocket. In
taiitly there flashed in the air the long,
'right blade of a big dirk.
Both men were as pale as death.
Livingston, ''n a niomett of despera
.ion, gra'cd the glittering Made which
! Breckinridge had aimed at his heart,
j The knife went botw&en the second and
. third fingers of Livingston's ricrht
hand, cnrFtg the third ringer to the
bone. The cold steel sent a shudder
through Liing' ton's frame, and he
grasped his right hard with his left,
in order to stop the terrible flow of
lood that Was dy'ug the tiling of the
obby. Desha seemed to want no
more blood, but give Liviigtton two
strong kicks.
They were then parted. A friend
then took Living tj;i home in n buggy
and Desha Brecl iuridge went to his
rooms across the street

THE NEW LOW-PRICE COTTON RECORD.
lower Than Since the War and May Gi
Lower Still.
New Yobk Citt. A new low-priced
record was made for cotton w hen Oc
ober contracts sold at 6.27 and fur
ther sold offto 6.21. The lowest pre
rious record was in 1882 w hen March
sontracts sold at 6.28. In ante-bellum
lays still lower prices w ere occasionally
turrent under slave labor, but never
oefore in the history of the cotton ex
?hange has the price of the staple
touched the low figure now current,
fhe immediate cause of the decline is
tha large movement of cotton at the
ports and the interior with an indiffer
int market for it even at present low
prices. Sentiment on change is bear
.6h and as low as 6 cents is predicted
for cotton in the not remote future,
Based on the expectation of a 9,000,000
Dales crop with 9,500,000 bales possible
md no estimate worth considering be
ow 8,500,000 bales. In view of the
bearish conditions prevailing, there is
I large accumulation of 6hort interest
lere and the pessimistic view of the
"uture generally taken, leads some of
ie more careful operators to be con
lervative as in the- event of any bull
novoment being started the 6hort in
terest would be an important factor in
t rapid advance of the price.
A B'3 LUMBER COM PANT.
ACimpany With S600.000 to Purchase
Timier in Wi stern North Carolina.
New Yobk. Ihe Tuckasecge Tim
ber Company has been incorporated
with a capital of 8600,000 for the pur
pose of purchasing timber and timber
landii and manufacturing lumber.
The gentlemen who have incorporat
ed this company represent the largett
and most important firms in New York
city in the lumber trade and take in
every branch of it. not only the pine
industry, but also hard woods and ma
hogany. TbU corporation has ac
quired about 75,000 acres of timber
lands near Asheville, Western North
Carolina, on the liue of the Southtrn
Railway, and not far from the estate
of George Vanderbilt. These lands
are verv heavily timbered with hard
woods and poplar.
Electric Transmission Power Again.
The power to operate the new Gaff
ney No. 2 Cotton Mill, S. C, will be
taken from the Broad R ver near the
Cherokee Co's burned mill. About
1000 horse power will be .developed at
first, the new Gaffney mill requiring
about 600 or 700 horse power for its
25,000 spindles and 800 looms and oth
er machinery. The popular electrical
transmission plan will be used, similar
to the Columbia Mills, and that pro
posed at several other Southern mills.
It is probable that the Gaffney Co. will
also operate their No. 1 mill by elec
tric power from the same source, thus
doing away with steam, and securing a
more desirable and cheaper power.
Nothing has been said on the subject
but we anticipate the Gaffney Co. will
6oon begin thinking about a printing
and machinery equipment to print its
own cloths, instead of sending them to
Massachusetts. When this occurs and
the new 0 ',000 Tucapau Mill is also
in the jX. gcods field, the South will

An Alliance Railroad in Which English Capt

Dallas, Tex. The news was gives
out by representatives of the Farmers'
State Alliance, which organization it
very strong and influential in Texas,
that 83,000,000 worth of the bonds of
the projected North and South Railroad
Company, from the Manitoba line to

and Gulf Railroad, have been sold to
English capitalists and that negotiations
are nearly closed for the sale o " ? '..ooj,

ers is to have State identity" in the con
6truction and ownership of the line
The English capitalists say they prefe;
to invest in the bonds of a road thtu
controlled than the bonds of an exclu
sive railroad corporation, as there ia
less possibility of too great an amount
of obligations being lodged on the prop
erties, and that they believe such a
road would earn at least 6 per cent., and
can be buiH for a cost not exceeding
510,000 a mile. The line is surveyed
throughout Texas was contemplated tc
run east of Dallas, but the English cap
italists insisted before agreeing to mir
chase the bonds that the road must be
built through the larger cities of the
States through which it runs, as it
would not be good policy to antagonize
those communities. It is claimed that
with the $6,000,000 of money which tbt
English financiers have agreed to fur
nish, the road can be built and put in
operation from the Gulf coast of Texas
to the Kansas line.
