liantly lighted and beautifully decorated,
was crowded at an early hour. Miss Mag
gie fatten and Mrs. J. 8. Burnes furnished
the musio. The auction of the young
ladies’ lunch baskets, the name of the
owner being withheld until after they were
sold, was a novel and pleasing feature of
the evening. A dozen was sold bringing
from 25 cents to $2 70 a piece.
A fine cake was voted to Mies Patten as
the most popular young lady present. Mra
U. K. MoCranle won the cake as the most
popular married lady present. Elijah
Paulk was voted a handsome cake as being
the most popular young man present, ana

THOMABVILI.E TOPIQ3.
AOanntasr Factory—Electric Compa
nies to be Consolidated.
Thomasvills, Oa., March 25. -Step}
are being taken to organize a canning faqS
tory in Thomasville. Such an establish
ment Is greatly needed to prevent musi
waste of raw material. The gentleman
who Is leading this movement will doubt-,
less make a success of it.
The large number of ciger factories now
running and to be ran in Thomasville wQI
create a large demand for cigar boxes.
tt is now thought that the Eleotno Rail

Light Company will consolidate and put in
a550,000 plant to furnish power for the
railroad and light for the whole city, street!
as well as dwellings.
Bud blight has appeared among the pear

CARROLL’S WHITE CAPS.
Additional Arrests Made and the Condj
munlty Still Excited.
Carrollton, (Ja„ March 25. Others of
the White Cap crowd .were arrested to-day
and some of the parties who were first ar
rested and allowed to make bail were re
arreeted this afternoon. They bad made
bonds which the officers considered insuffi
cient to cover their crimes. The outrage
seems to be the sole toplo of conversation
and It is the verdict of all that all impli
cated should be punished to the fullest ex
tent of the law. Henry Bewford, who is
already in jail for riot, assault with intent
to murder and rape, had another warrant
served on him this morning for arson. He
was arrested some time ago and had a pre
liminary trial for setting fire to Mrs. White’s
house, but was turned loose, and a second
warrant was sworn out to-day. It is said
that the officers have positive proof of his
guilt.

a telegram, denounces as “a great big lie"
the statement telegraphed from Carters
vllle to the effect that he and
a brother minister were carrying

Manufacturers of New York.
N$W York, March 25.—Fifty shops
closed down to-day in accordance with the
retaliatory polioy adopted by;the Clothing
Manufacturers’ Association against the
Amerioan Federation of Labor. The as

effect that tbe federatiou must cease its
boycott against Slusbeimer, Levonson &
Cos., or all the cutters employed by tbe as
sociation would be locked out. Tbe boy
cott was not withdrawn, and at 3
o’olock this afternoon they locked
the factories behind 700 cutters. The
men were ready for this, and as Boon as
they left their plaoes of employment repair
ed to Beethoven hall, where they discussed j
the situation. They will not yield an iota,
and as the bosses are equally firm the strug
gle becomes a stubborn one. Already
attempts have been made to
fill the places ot the locked
out men with Knights of Labor. The
1,300 cutters not involved in the lockout

TO BETTER FLORA’S TINTS
HOW THE ARTIFICIAL FLOWER
SYNDICATE PAINTS TH3 LILY.
After Nature Has Done Her Beet It
Thinks a Rose of Any Other Hue
Would Look as Sweet—A Stroll
Through the Garden Where the
Spring Hat Blowers Grow
From the .Veic York World.
When a woman sets out to purchase the
: Trimmings for a bonnet she probably labors
under tbe delusion tbat in its selection she is
a free agent. She fondly imagine tbat she
is going to ohocse tbe colors and combine
them to suit herself. She has heard of
such things as monopolies for the control of
sugar or wheat and things of that sort, but
she never dreams tbat gigantio conspiracy
controls tbe color market. It is true,
nevertheless.
Most of the flower and feather-making
firms are united in a syndicate, which has
its headquarters in Paris. Twice a year
each firm in the union receives a chart with
all tbe colors of the rainbow and their
variations arrayed in the order that tbe
syndicate has decreed shall be popular.
The flower and feather magnates study this
chart and proceed to order bottles of green
r purple dye, as tbe diagram may indicate.
And then the woman who has decided to
have a hat simply trimmed in yellow but
tercups finds herself surrounded on all sides
by buttercups in Nile green and violet and
is assured by suave saleswomen that the
yellow buttercups is very old-fasbioued and
has been relegated to the region where red
roses and purple pansies and other crudely
natural things belong.
The syndicate has a beneficent reason for
this improvement upon nature’s tints. It
is that the artistically minded may have
hat trimmings to harmontze with dress
goods, aud that those results known as
“color symphonies" may be achieved by
the woman with a genius for gowning her
self.
A. Loppin, who is in charge tof the
flower-making department of one of the
largo wholesale millinery establishments on
Broadway, revealed the fact of the ex
istence of this color “ring” to a World re
porter the other morning. Mr. Loppin
also made plain many other mysteries iu
the line of artificial florioulture.
“What is all that muslin for?’ inquired
the investigator, pointing to a pile of vic
toria lawn which seemed more connected
with the manufacture of caps and aprons
than with violets and mignonette.
“That,” said Mr. Loppiu, “is the rose in
embryo—tbe rose seed as it were. But
come and I will show you how the flower
grows.”
They went around through rooms where
Bowers in various stages of development
made brilliant spots of color on long tallies
toward a place whence issued “the sound of
hammers, blow on blow.’’ In this room
were a couple cf brawny men, standing be
fore little lead tables, and pounding steel
dies with rawhide mallets. On these tables
the prepared lawn had been placed in about
sixteen layers, so that every blow of the
mallet cut out sixteen petals. To be sure,
they bore not the slightest resemblance to
ruse petuls iu that stage of their progress,
but looked rather like the artistio produc
tions of a kindergarten class.
Theso petals are next carried to a little
room whore there are a long table with
some white china bowls set upon it, some
shelves with mysterious looking bottles, a
curious wooden framework aud a deft-fin
gered young woman. The bowls oontain
liquid dyes. The young woman dips a pile
of rose petals into a bowl of pale green per
haps, or gray, or sometimes even pink.
Then she rapidly squeezees them oat and
distributes them in neat rows on a paper
oovered board.
When the board is oovered she dips a
brush into a deeper-tinted dye and makes a
splash of deeper color on these petals, sc
that the heart cf the completed roes will
he ved a life-like intensity of hue. When
the whole board full has been treated in
this way the paper is slid off upon a sort of
flannel shelf which is plaoed in the myster
ious wooden frame. The heat from the
radiator rises, the air circulates among
these shelves aud the petals dry.
Meantime tbe young woman is dyeing a
thousand or more with a rapidity that
would put June itself to tbe blush, and iu
tints that not even the green-carnation
florists can ever hope to equal, it was in
this dyeing room that Mr. Loppiu showed
the Farislan chart of colors and explained
its use.
After the petals are dried they are borne
out of the room where tbe edicts of the
syndicate are obeyed and are taken into
one of the rooms, where there are tables
full of ot gorgeously tinted blossoms. First
they have to be ironed. A young woman
sils near a little portable Btove, with a pil
low about tbe size of a generous pincusluou
in front of ber and numerous little instru
ments of iron scattered around. They all
have wooden handles.
One is simply a round knob of iron,
another is shaped something like a small
shepherd’s crook, another has parallel
groves out into it. The young woman boats
the instrument she intends using, dampens
her petal by pressing it on a damp paper,
places it on the cushion and irons it. The
round iron knob gives the petal that deli
ciously natural curve, the grooved one gives
the crinkled effect to the edges, the bent
ones gives a little twist which any impar
tial observer will say is more than merely
natural.
Then the petals are piled up before the
girls at one of the long tables in fiat looks
like lavish prodigality. Iu reality the
Katals, like the hair on our heads, ai e num
ered. There are wires, tiny Lulus at (he
eud, to be oovered with petals. These are
pasted on, closely nt first, then with
spreading leaves, until finally the rose is
there before you, blooming iu all its gray
or greeu glory. Tnsn the calyx is slipped
up over the wire and pastd to the rose.
The wire is then inclosed in duii-greeu rub
ber tubiug, tiny thorns of reddish rubber
are pasted on, and rose leaves already pre
pared are artistically added. Then the
flowers are carefully packed in boxes to be
sent to retail dealers, or are sent up to the
millinery department to wave upon a
summer hat.
That is tbe way the rose is made. Other
flowers are manufactured on the same prin
ciple. Mr. Loppln’s department is making
more roses than anything else this spring.
Violets, at any rate the cheap varieties, ho
said, with some feeling on the subject
makiug itself appareut, are largely the
work of imported laborers who work tor
un-American wages.
Besides the flowers of victoria lawn and
nainsook, which are the common blossoms—
the field flowers, as it were—of the artifi
cial vegetable kingdom, there are rarer and
more expensive specimens in velvet and
French chiffon, fine silk and the like. Some
are a combination of tbe two kinds of
material. But this year tbe trail of tbe ser
pen: is over them all—a figurative way of
saying that the colors of the syndicate pre
vail over those of nature, and that roses of
eminence, purple and Nile greeu, are consid
ered the most beautiful blossoms with
which a “queen rose of toe rosebud garden
of girls” cuu adorn herself aud her hat.

SAINT CORMELIA.
How tiyf Friendly Sioux Indians
Created a Modern Saint.
Maitland, Fla., Maroh 25.—For many
years past the venerable and distinguished
Bishop Henry B. Whipple of Minnesota
has owned a fine orange grove on Lake
Maitland, and for quite a number of yaarß
he baa had an elegant residence between
Park Lake ar;d I ake Catherine, opposite
the rectory and Church of the Good
Shepherd, erected in memory of his de
ceased son and in which he officiates
regularly when spending the winter here,
as is his usual custom, the exoeption being
last seaton, which he spent in Europe.
appearance the bishop is a striking
figure. Tall, spare, slightly stooping, witn
long hair, smooth face and clerical dro>s,
he attracts attention wherever he goes, and
people refer to him as the ‘‘Saint John” of
modern evangelists, partly owing to his
personal appearance and gentle manners,
but largely because of his life-long labors
among toe It dians on the frontier and his
persistent friendship for the better disposed
of the savage tribes. At raribault, the
summer home of the bishop, he has built up
a great educational center for the Protestant
Episcopal church in Minnesota, but his as
sistant bishop, the Rt. Rev. Dr. M. N. Gil
bert, resides in St. Paul, from whiob point
the “Minnesota Missionary and Church
Record,'’ the official organ of the diocese, is
issued monthly. The March number con
tains a poem, ‘‘Saint Cornelia,” which has
inspired me to write this epistle.
Bishop Whipple’s birthday occurs on Feb.
15, and is generally celebrated at his winter
home here, where his 71st birthday was re
cently attended by an unusually large num
ber of visitors from town and trom Winter
Park, Altamonte Springs and Orlando.
Until a few years ago his beloved wife, who
was more of an invalid than himself, used
to share with him the honors and pleasures
of the day, but now his widowed daughter,
Mrs. Soaudrett, presides over his beautiful
home here. The late Mrs. Whipple was a
woman of fine character, and thoroughly in
accord with her zealous husband in his
arduous work among the “red m n of the
forest,” and her example and intiuenoi wore
largely instrumental m Christianizing and
improving in many ways the wives, or
squaws, and daughters of the Indians, to
whom the bishop preached.
When the famous Sioux massacre oc
curred some of those women 9aved the lives
of 200 white people, and Mrs. Whipple took
these women of the forest and oared for
them and taught them cot only in religious
truths but about domestic and industrial
afTairs, having a desire to make them use
ful as well as pious. Before her death she
went up to Birch Cooley, Minn., to see thorn,
and when she parted from them, in view of
her feeble condition, each Indiau woman,
in giving a tearful farewell, added: “In
heaven to meet you is my hope.” Later
on, when Bishop Whipple went there after
his wife’s death, to lav the corner-stone of
their new church building .they insisted with
one voice that it must be nan ed
“Bamt Cornelia,” in memory of the noble,
saintly woman, who had been so devoted
to their spiritual and temporal wolfare.
They presented toblm a petition in writing,
signed by all interested, asking this singu
lar favor, pas and upon the ground that when
they were wild men, he and she led them to
the "Light.” Ho was their “father.’she
th'-ir “motner." In laying the corner they
said we esk you, father, to name the church
after the woman we love so well—“Baint
Cornelia.” The appeal was so touchingly
made and bo universal that the kind-hearted
bishop was compelled to grant their request.
And ibis is why, far out in that weateru
wild, a modeat little Episcopal church
bears the singular moJern name of “Kaint
Cornelia,” in; honor of one who but a few
years ago closed a long life of unwearied
Christian labor for those red men and
women of Minnesota, who then had few
friends and fewer influences for good. Out
of these foots grew the following poem re-
27 BULL STREET,
. Rear* Theus Bros.
ferred to in the Church Record for March,
from the pen of Elizabeth It. Burns, a zeal
ous friend of the bishop’s labors for the In
dians:
“Alas for our good Father!
His heart is filled with woe.
Alas, for our good Mother,
Our tears with his must flow.
“Our Mother has been taken,
Who was so good and wise; .
We know, tho’ we are weeping,
Bbe dwells in paradise.
“Like saint of old, she labored
For the dear Lord above—-
She fed and clothed the needy,
She cheered with words ot love.
“She cared for us poor red men,
Her heart was brave and strong,
Yet melted into pity
At story of our wrong.
“She taught us, and she helped us
With tender, loving care—
We ask for her. O, Father,
To nam- oar pocs: of prayer."
Then spake their stricken father,
“Your loviug wish shall be,
No Saint is th-re that's worthier
In piradise than she."
So on the western prairie,
Where dwell the ludian bands,
A church in loving mem’ry
Of "Saint Cornelia" stands.
As an evidence of the genuine love of
these Indian women for Mrs. Whipple, a
recent incident will be quite interesting.
Last winter Bishop Whipple was in Europe,
aud while there he sent home a memorial
window iu honor of his deceased wife for
this little church. Weeks after, while on
the River Nile, a letter reached him from
these devoted women begging him to let
them pay for the beautiful window and have
it stand as their tribute to bis sainted loved
one. He could not refuse their re
quest, and by making moccasins
tbey raised the money and paid
the entire cost of the window. As I said in
the outset, the nppellatiou of “Saint John”
has often bean applied, with all due rever
ence to Bishop Whipple and perhaps, in
view of all she was to him and to his work,
and to the wild men of the forest to whom
his life work has been given, it was a
heavenly inspiration that gained for Mrs.
Whipple tbe well earned title of “Saint
Cornelia,” and a place in the hearts of the
Indian women of Minnesota that will live
long after the church that bears her honored
name shall have fallen into ruius.

the Bogus Lord in tha Face.
Rome, Ga. , March 25.—50 far as the
courts are concerned the end of the famous
Lork Here ford seems to have been reached
at last. In the argument of his case before
tbe supreme court of tbe United States last
week the court threw out several intima
tions to the effect that the decision would
be against Beresford. Whea the attorney
general began his ooncludlug argument for
tne prosecution the court mated that they
did not care further to hear from him.
Beresford’s sentence as pronounced by J udge
Henry some time since is eight years in tne
Georgia penitentiary.
When the supreme oourt hands down its
sentence, whioh will be within the next few
days, it will out short the career of the
bistorio lord for the next eight years at
least.

SHE GIVES BLACK MILK.
The Thing to Rear Darky Babies
On—Nobody Would Adulterate It.
From the Chicago .Vail.
Chillicothr, 0., March 19.—Robert
Hansborough of this city is the owner of
the “eighth wonder of the world,” a cow
that gives coal-black milk. The cow ii a
mixture of Jersey and Durham, and a
raided on the Hansborough farm, as was also
her mother aud many sisters, none of whom
exhibited any peculiarity in the color of
the<r milk. Mollie, as this phenomenal
oreature is called, has raised five or si*
calves, ail of which have lived and grown
fat on the black milk.
The milk produces a fair amount cf
cream. This cream is a trifle lighter in oolor
than the milk itself, and, when churned,
makes a kind of but'.er that resembles a
thick mixture of coal tar. Paradoxical as
it may seem, this butter is as palatable al
though of a golden yellow, and it is sail to
b@ highly relished by the whole Hansoo
rough family.
At first, when the peculiar oolor of Mol
lie’s milk was discoversil by the person to
whom was allotted the task of “breaking
the cow in,” the family was afraid to use it
in any way. When they saw that
the calf was waxing fat on tbs
liquid tar the younger members of
the family overoa . o their pro
judices and within a few days the milk was
being used just the same as if it had been of
regulation oolor. ,
Cnemists of New York, Washington and
Richmond have analyzed both the milk and
the butter, but deolare that they can detect
nothing that in any way aooounts for U*
oolor.
