Washing I-lannels.
To wash flannels without shrinkage
have a tub half full of water that is
more than warm but not very hot, and
make a strong suds with laundry soap
of the best quality. Add a teaspoon¬
ful of powdered borax. Shake the
flannels thoroughly, then squeeze them
with the hands, sop them up and down
and, if necessary, rub the spots be¬
tween the hands. Do not rub soap
on the flannels and do not rub them
on a board. Wring from the first suds
and put into another of the same tem-
peraturi Rinse through this water,
then put them into another as warm,
that does not contain soap. Wring
dry, shake vigorously and dry quickly.

not use borax for colored flannels.
The most heartless jokes are those
made which bring into ridicule the
“typewriter girl. ” No woman should
be made to feel ashamed of an honora¬
ble occupation, and no man, with the
feelings of a man, should make light
of it.

lina rendered a decision, Monday, sus¬
taining the validity of the state bonds
recently issued. The question raised
was, that the new bonds had not been
voted upon by tlie people.
News was received at New Orleans
that the Grand Lake levee in Arkansas
broke at 9 o’clock Monday night. This
is tw T o miles above Carriola, Ark., and
about ten miles from Lakeport. The
break is widening rapidly and will
prove serious.
Messrs. Robert J. Low ry and H. M.
Comer were, on Monday, appointed
receivers of the Savannah and West-
ern railroad by Judge John A. Pardee
at New Orleans. It is thought Judge

Richmond and West Point Terminal
company.
A Raleigh, N. C., special of Sunday
says: The railway commission has
notified the telephone companies that
on and after June 1st, it would have
supervisions of them as of railways,
with power to revise rates. The com¬
panies are informed that they will be
given a hearing that day. They strong¬
ly object to the new law.
A handsome granite monument
erected to the memory of the late
James Barren Hope, known as the poet
laureate of Virginia, was unveiled at
Norfolk, Ya., Thursday. The confed¬
erate camps of that section and the
typographical union attended in a
body. The monument was erected by
friends of the dead editor and poet.
At Savannah, Ga., Tuesday morning,
Judge McDonald rendered a decision
in the demurrer to the three million
dollar debenture suit of the Mercantile
Trust company. He overruled the
demurrer on every point except as to
the interest, which lie held was not
collectable except by the party hold¬
ing at time interest falls due according
to the contract.
The sixty-second annual session of
the diocesan council, Episcopal, of
Alabama, convened at Montgomery
Tuesday. The venerable and beloved
Bishop R. H. Wilmer presided with
dignity, and his able coadjutor, Bish¬
op H. M. Jackson, sat upon his right.
Twenty-nine clergymen and lay dele¬
gates, representing nineteen parishes,
■were present.
A decision in the South Carolina dis¬
pensary law case was filed in the
supreme court at Columbia Tuesday
adverse to the liquor men. It is sign¬
ed by Justice Pope, and other justices
concurring. The case came up on the
petition of Charleston barkeepers for
a mandamus requiring the city council
to grant them license for the full year,
the grant having been made only until
July, the time of the inauguration of
the dispensary system.
The colored teachers of Georgia and
others interested in the education of
the negro children of the state will
meet in convention at Atlanta on the
20th of June. The educational con¬
vention will last three days, and be
largely attended. A number of lead¬
ing negroes from other states have been
invited to be present. Tlie colored
press convention w r ill also meet at that
time. They will be joined by repre¬
sentatives of negro papers from other
states.
A special of Tuesday from Tallahas¬
see Fla., says that the senate has
just passed the Marks bill, appropriat¬
ing $25,000 for maintaining exhibits
in the Florida building at the exposi¬
tion. The bill provides that the gov¬
ernor shall appoint a commission to
expend this money, provided the rail¬
roads and other corporations contri¬
bute another $55,000 in cash. The
bill will probably pass the house in a
few days, and there is no' doubt that
the railroad companies will raise the
requisite amount to make the appro¬
priation available.
A Charleston dispatch says: The
doors of the Bank of the Carolinas,
with home office at Florence, closed
Tuesday, with a notice of temporary
suspension until a meeting of the di¬
rectors. The capital stock of the bank
is nearly $60,000. It has branches at
Kingston, Conway, Wiiliston and Yarn-
ville, in South Carolina, and several
towns in North Carolina. It is be¬
lieved that the bank has assets to cover
all indebtedness. Stringency of the
money market and consequent inability
to realize on securities held by the
bank is the cause of the failure.

Extra Session Talk.
The democrats are already discuss¬
ing the work to be done by the next
congress. Mr. Cleveland has been
discussing the matter with many of
the leaders recently, and it is possible
that a financial policy will be agreed
upon by which the Sherman law shall
be repealed, an income tax levied and
the 10 per cent tax on the issue of
state banks repealed. It is possible
that Mr. Cleveland will recommend
such action in his message to congress
at the opening of the September extra
session. Besides this the other two
chief things to be done by the next
congress are a complete revision of the
tariff and the repeal of the federal
election laws.
Investig • ting Bogus Pension Claims.
It is stated at the pension office that
up to last Tuesday the pension exam¬
iner now in Norfolk, Va., investigating
claims filed by Pension Attorney
Drewry, had completed fourteen cases,
all of which had been found to be ir¬
regular or fraudulent. The pension
office officials are searching the files
for claims filed by Drewry, which
have been a!low r ed, anu so far 166 have
been found and forwarded to the ex¬
aminer at Norfolk. No computation
of the amounts paid on these claims
has been made, hut as all of them were
filed under the act of June 27, 1890,
which allows $12 per month as the
maximnm rate, it is probable that the
average will fall below $200 ea#h.
Drewry is now serving a one year term
in jail for fraudulent transactions in
pension cases.
A Protest by Austria.

CHINA MAY RESIST
The Enforcement of the Exclusion Act
by Retaliatory Sleasures.
A Washington special of Tuesday
says that the outlook for a war with
China is now regarded in naval circles
as not improbable. It is believed that
the empire will resent the conclusion
reached by the supreme court, and
will issue "a decree enforcing strict
rules against the entry of any more
Americans into China, and probably
ordering the removal of our mission¬
aries out of its territory under pain
of forcible deportation. Meanwhile
there is danger of insurrection
of Chinese against the white immi¬
grants, which the imperial authorities
will be unable to check. These, taken
together with the outbreaks which the
attempt to enforce the Geary law on
our west coast will bring about, it is
thought will put the two nations on
such a footing as to make war inevita¬
ble. The decision is a great blow to
the Chinese legation here where it has
been hoped down to the last moment
that the act would be declared uneon-
stitutional.
AUSTRALIAN BANKS COLLAPSE.
Two Concerns Go Down With Heavy
Liabilities.
The Bank of North Qtieensland, lim¬
ited, has suspended. The Queensland
National bank has also suspended.
Private cable dispatches received at
Brisbane, Monday, were to the effect
that the Commercial Banking Com-
pany, of Sydney, N. S. W., has bus-
pended. For this and other reasons
uneasiness on the London stock ex-
change is increasing. The Commercial
Banking Company, of Sydney, is one
of the oldest banking establishments
in the antipodes, having been estab¬
lished iu 1834 and incorporated in 1848.
The capital is 600,000 pounds, and re¬
serve stated to be 830,000 pounds. It
has many branches hi Queensland and
New South Wales.

Never go to bed with cold or damp
feet.
Never lean with the back upon any¬
thing that is cold.
Never begin a journey until the
breakfast has been eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then
immediately go out in the cold.
After exercise of any kind never ride
in an open carriage or near the window
of a car for a moment; it is dangerous
to health and even life.
Never omit regular bathing, for un¬
less the skin is in good condition the
cold will close the pores and favor con¬
gestion or other diseases.
Never stand still in cold weather, es¬
pecially after having taken a slight de¬
gree of exercise, and always avoid
standing on ice or snow where the per-
son is exposed to the wind.
When going from a warm atnxos-
phere into a colder one, always keep
the month closed, so that the air may
be warmed by its passage through the
nose ere it reaches the lungs.
Keep the back, especially between
the shoulders, well covered; also the
com
breathing through the nose, and never
with the mouth open.

Should Remember.
The Government Chemists, after having analyzed
all the principal brands of baking powder in the
market, in their reports placed the “Royal” at the
head of the list for strength, purity and wholesome¬
ness; and thousands of tests all over the country
have further demonstrated the fact that its qualities
are, in every respect, unrivaled.
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift or prize,
or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably
contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and render the
food unwholesome.
