. According to a report hj irules
Fojest, reai before the French Na
tional Socielj of Acclimatization,
woman's deeire to decorate her bonnet
with feathers causes the slaughter
each year of 1,450,000 stvallown, and
is, moreover, exterminating the heron,
the bird of paradise and many of the
most beautiful birds of the American
and Australian tropics.
One of the humors of the history of
the new anti-diphtheria serum re
corded by the Chicago Times is a pro
test by the anti-vivisectionist of Eng
land against the cruelty of "poison
ing" horses for so slight an object at
securing an a;ent which reduces the
mortality of diphtheria by fifty pet
cent. No less a person than Lord
Coleridge leads the protestant?.
The Fathftnder says: 'Tarkhurst
ing is the term now applied to the nu
merous movements for reform in the
city government which are being or
ganized in various parts of the conn
try, the new word being coined from
Rev. Dr. Parkhurst's triumphant war
against police corruption in New York
City. Among places now being stirred
to similar investigations are Balti'
more, New Orleans, 8au Francisco,
Saginaw, Mich. ; Charleston, S. C. ;
Cleveland, Ohio ; Atlanta, Oa. ; Alle
gheny and Pittsburg, Penn. ; Denver,
Col. ; Chicago, Boston, Brooklyn, St.
Louis, and Indianapolis."
The South American Colonization
Company is making considerable stir
in Arkansas City, Kan. Its object is
the colonization of a tract of land of
over 2,000,000 aores in the Republic
of Colombia, South America, which it
claims to own. The Rev. I. N. Mer
rifield, of Arkansas City, is the Presi
dent of the company, which is to bo
co-operative. All property will be
he!d in common. But before sharing
in its advantages, colonists must take
$100 worth of stock in the company.
Eack member of the commune will be
required to labor eight hours a day.
The company has agreed to pay the
Colombian Government a certain price
for the land, and bring 800 colonists.
It will transport them in its own ves
sel, some time in March or April.
Agents are now drumming up colon
ists in the Southwestern States.
Dr. Channcey M. Depew in a recent
interview in predicting 1895's pro
gress in railroading, very pertinently
stated: "Take, for instance, the New
York Central Railroad. Our trains
might almost bo termed flashes of
lightning, but their rate is not a cir
cumatance to the speed we are now
aiming at. Then there is the matter
of safety. I need not assure you that
the safety of passengers is the most
important thing a railroad man has to
with. This coming year we expect to
attain what some people may consider
a chimera namely, perfect freedom
from risk in the transportation of hu
man beings by rail. We have, we be
lieve, Bolved the problem, and that, I
should say, will make 1895 au un
equaled year iu railroading. In the
far ae in the near future, romantio
things arc done, or are being pro
jected. A tunnel to the summit of
Ihe Jungfrau is one of the things pos
sible. The Trans-Siberian Railway
and tho South African line to Masbon
aland are two projects on the edge of
the future the former already under
way and the poetry of railroading
will be experienced in the new rush of
railroad building certain to ensue in
Japan when the Chinese war indemnity
is paid which will certainly happen
in 1895. 'J
Trofeesor John W. Langley says in
the Popular Science Monthly: "Tho
warliko temperament of mm has baen
one of his most prominent characteris
tics from the earliest times. To live
to fight has been the chief aim of most
primitive peoples, and has been a
leading occupation of all civilized
ones. Armies have grown iu rii
weapons have multiplied in number
Hnd destruotiveness, battles have
grown more and more deadly iu ac
tion, while also becoming more mer
ciful in their accompaniments; but
still it is everywhere apparent that, in
spite of these aids to carnage, the mil
itary spirit is on the decline. May
we not look for the cause of this in
the enormously increased cost of war
fare and its interference with the pur
suit of prosperity and wealth? When
the internal losses to a people become
greater than those they can gain
.throngh conquest and annexation,
they will be very loath to enter into
a great conflict. I am very far from
saying that many other causes, such
as ethics and a growing spirit of
mercy, may not have contributed to
this pacification of the Nations, but is
it not true that the cost of war is the
ebief preventive of war? If so, does
it not illustrate the rule that tho re
actions set np by tho vast technical
improvement of methods of destruc
tion hare reacted 'on the primitive
cause of the destruction viz., tho
human will and have lessened tho
cause by modifying tho heart and
brain of man?

Senator Franck Dead.
Raleigh, N. C. Wednesday morn
ing E. L. Franck, of Onslow, Senator
from the eighth district and president
pro tern, of the Senate, died at the
Branson House here, of pneumonia,
after just one week's illness. He was
38 years of age, and was the largest
member of the Legislature, his weight
being 30S pounds . It had been thought
that his condition was much improved.
He was a clever man, and a popular
one, and his loss is one deplored by
members of all parties. He had served
one term previously.
At noon the Senate, headed by its
officers, accompanied the remains to
the union depot. The escorts of two
Senators and two Representatives, ac
companied by Principal Clerk H. E.
King, of the Senate, left with the re
mains for Onslow county. The flags
on the capitol were halfmasted during
the day.
This is the second death of a mem
ber during the session. Several other
members are sick; some here, some
at their homes.
The Forthcoming Yankee Cotton
Picker.
When the New England cotton man
ufacturers get well settled in the South
they will devote their ingenuity to tho
invention of a cotton picking machine.
The Yankee, and the Connecticut Yan
kee especially, has a peculiar gift in
the way of an inventive facalty. The
patent office reports credit more in
ventions to Connecticut than any other
State. Among these inventions, is
doubtless numbered the famous wooden
nutmeg. The cotton gin was invented
by a New Englander, and no doubt
tbe successful cotton picker will be.
The invention of a cotton picker is cer
tainly not more difficult than ether;.in
ventions that have been perfected a
type setting machine, for instance.
Birmingham Age-Herald.
And the Outsider Blade the Profit.
A letter in tbe News and Courier,
of Charleston says:
"Some time ago a South Carolina
merchant ordered a lot of canned goods
from New Ycrk, and on their arrival,
lo!and behold, they proved to bo
goods packed by canning factories in
his own town. They had been shipped
to New York and then freighted back
to tbe same town where manufactured.
These goods paid two freights, and
could have been bought cheaper from
the factory at first."
This is only one of many illustra
tions that could be given of the mis
take Hint the South is making in not
saving the cost of transportation both
ways.

REMARKABLE LONGEVITY
Family Reunions at Which There Were
Four Generations.
Colombia, S. C. Within the limits
of South Carolina are probably to be
found as many people remarkable for
longevity as in any State of the union.
The present winter has been notable
for family reunions, and the country
papers have teemed with descriptions
of domestic gatherings, composed of an
aged couple with three generations of
their posterity.
At the family dining of Samuel and
Sallie Shealy, in Lexington county, on
the 7th of last December, six childron
fortv-one grandchildren and two great
grandchildren were present fifty-one
in all, including the two old people. It
is 'especially remarkable that in this
whole family only three deaths have
occurred.
At Longmires, Edgefield county, on
January 2d, Tillman and Martha Jane
Harling celebrated their golden wed
ding. Eleven children and thirty-nine
grandchildren, a total of fifty descend
ants, were present.
At Buffalo, York county, on January
8th, the seventy-fifth birthday of
Jonathan Moore was celebrated at the
family homestead by a . picnic dinner,
to which all his descendants con
tributed. The family party, including
the old gentleman and his wife, Mrs.
Melvina Moore, numbered seventy- one
souls, chilhren, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren. Fifteen others
of the family were absent, ho the total
of its membership is eighty-six.
At Yorkville, on the 23d of January,
Mr. and Mrs. George W. Deal cele
brated the fifty-seventh anniversary of
their marriage with a dining, at which
a number of invited guests were pres
ent. William Little, also of Yorkville, is
eighty-one years old. Seventy years
ago, at the age of eleven, he learned
to chew tobacco, and persevered in the
habit until six years ago. Then he
concluded that afte all it was a use
less habit, and has not touched the
weed since. He insists that he feels
"like a two-year-old."
VIRGINIA'S STATE LEAGUE.
Six Towns Are in It With an $800
Limit.
Richmond, Va. Virginia will have
better baseball and more of it than
ever before. There will be six clubs
in the State league and they will em
brace many good men. The league
managers, in their meeting here, elect
ed Hon. Samuel B. Witt, judge of the
hustings court of Richmond, as presi
dent. The jovial and jolly judge is
the prince of "rooters" and never misses
a game here. The schedule was not
adopted, but it was decided that each
club should play 150 games unless, for
good reasons to be determined hereaf
ter, the number is reduced to 120.
The gate receipts will be divided
equally between the home and visiting
clubs so that matters may not be ho
largely against the teams located in the
smaller cities. The salary limit was
placed at $800 jer Reason. A pen
alty will te imposed for violation
of this except in the case of the Rich
mond club, whose manager had already
engaged severl men above this grade.
The season opens April 15th and the
league will embrace Richmond, Nor
folk, Portsmouth, Petersburg, Lynch
burg and Roanoke.
