must be toid she should take two or

NORDICA.
Wherever Nordica has appeared
the papers lauded her. This great
artist produces an enthusiasm that
few, by mere tents of the voice in
song, can create. She is unquestion
ably the greatest artist that ever
came to the South; nor do we think
any greater ever went elsewhere
It is such an event to hear Nordica
that no one should miss the oppor
tunity, for it may never return. It
is not the gratification only an hour
or two that oue pays for the work of
a great artist. Indeed it is tlie mem
ory of a life time. It is the nearest
approach to divinity that ever bless
es humanity; for in the works of all
genius in art is our only escape from
the material into the realm of the
ideal.
To hear one of Norrtica’s finales
to some sweet 3oug, tremblcg
into dying echoes that seem to lose
themselves in the haziness of infi
nite distances one eau never forget
it if there is any poetic sentiment
left; but there is more than that in
her grandest efforts. She can in a
moment under the spell of her wiz-
zird genius produce such pictures
of grandeur that one is spell bound.
The selections in her recitals are so
arranged that the listener is lead
through beds of roses without a
thorn. Gradually the changes ernne
until one is inspired with son ething
that is akin to sublimity.
For a long time it was doubtful
if the Wagnerian school of music
could have any followers, from the
fact that the true interpretation did
not come to hand. All doubt is dis
pelled when Nordica interprets
Wagner. It is the grandest of ai.
music when this perfect artist tei!.-
the meaning.
Away back yonder was heard

h ips we fly in the face of some mus
ical criticism, but it seems a fact
that the greatest gift of song goes
to Nordica and uo one cares if the
divine Patti never makes anothei
farewell visit to America if Nordics
is with u=.
to plow since the snow and it is well
to break the ground now before the
spring rains set in, if they should to
rnsko it impossible. For inaDy sec
tions of our county last year very
poor crops were made, but iheJartn -
ers are not wholly disheartened by
the failure. The cotton craze still
holds the country in its grip and
the question of provisions for man
and beast has little place in the
southern farmer’s consideration.
Hence ail the farmers can do tor
another year is to buy from some
far off store house in another sec
tion of this country and lose the
time hauling it to his homo with

lo by Miss Rosser was especially
enjoyed. That the banquet was not
the least pleasant feature of the oc
casion was attested by the way they
“fell to” when supper was announc
ed. Mr. J.O. Patker was toast mas
ter and in an eloquent tribute to
the order demonstrated his ability
as an orator. Prof C. L. Harris re
sponded in his usual happy way
creating much amusement by a joke
at hid own expense, relative to ms
recent acquisition at the Bymenial
altar.
Our town turned out in full force
seems to be in the grind forever

It has been demonstrated that the
South can have under pioper sys

its poverty breeding recklessness.

an act that justly brought fame to
our young southerner, but what
particular branch of that kind of

March, has probably had more names
conferred upon it than any other of the
twelve Into which our year is now di
vided. Among the early Saxons it was
called Winter Monat, or winter month.
After their conversion to Christianity
they called it Ileligh Monat, cr holy
month, in honor of the birth of Christ.
In later days in Germany it was called
Christ Monat for the same reason.
Fires used to be lighted for warmth in
this month, and the want of chimneys
used to cause a too obvious inconven
ience, which led to its being called Fu-
mosus, or smoky. It was also dubbed
Canus, or hcary, from the snows or
hoarfrosts which then generally whit
ened the higher grounds.
The Force of Cyclones.
Careful estimates of the force of a
cyclone and the energy required to
keep a full fledged hurricane in active
operation reveal the presence of a pow
er that makes the mightiest efforts of
men appear as nothing in comparison.
A force fully equal to over 400,000,000
horsepower was .estimated as develop
ed in a West Indian cyclone. This is
about fifteen times the power that can
be developed by all the means within
the range of man’s capabilities during
the same time. Were steam, water,
windmills and the strength of all men
and all animals combined they could
not at all approach the tremendous
force exerted.
A Test of Friendship.
A gentleman has tried the following
peculiar way of probing the ties of
friendship. He sent letters to twenty-
intimate friends asking for a loan of a
pound. Thirteen of the two dozen
friends did not reply at all, five de
clined to lend the money, two promised
ta send it on the next day and did not
do it, one sent his “last 10 shillings,"
and only three sent the full sum asked
for. The supplicant and all the.
“friends” he had written to are well
off.—St Petersburg Xovoe Vremya.
One Siirn of Old Arc.
Henry—How can a man tell when he
begins to get old?
John—Well, a man has begun to get
old when he finds out that lie would
rather sit by the fire than go sleigh rid
ing.—Detroit Free Tress.
* 1.000 if the estimate is received during Jan
uary.
$500 if the estimate is received during Feb
ruary.
$250ifthe estimate is received during March
or up to April loth.
The above are for theexactestimates. there
are besides these the following prizes that,
will be paid out for the nearest estimates to
the Savannah cotton receipts received at any
time during the contest.
$250, ?!00, $75, $50. $25, tor the next nearest
estimates in their order.
There is also a great consolation offer. $500
will be distributed among those who fail to
secure one of the larger prizes and whose es
timates come within 5- 0 bales either way
of the exact figure. This allows a margin of
1,000 bales within which all estimates are sure
to receive part of the prize money offered.
The point is to strike the estimate exactly
during January. This is a possibility. In a
contest similar to this the Constitution has
had the number hit exactly and paid out
$1,000 for the estimate. In another similar
contest the estimate has come within one or
lhe exact figure, and ait tire prizes offered
have been paid out upon estimates that were
not fifty removed from the exact estimate.

Made With a Hatchet, a Club and a
I’ot of Paint.
In the south seas dresses are made
with a hatchet, a club and a pot of
paint. Every housewife is her own
robe and habit maker. When she feels
the need of a new gown, she goes and
chops down a tree. When her husband
needs a new suit, she chops down an
other tree. That is easy, for men and
women are clad exactly alike—a plain
fold of cloth caught about the waist
and hanging loosely to the knee or
shin. The races inhabiting the islands
of the tropical Pacific are almost alone
in having no idea of the loom and the
various arts of the spinner and weaver
This lack is undoubtedly due to the
natural provision of material which
renders a woven cloth unnecessary to
this primitive people. The only fabric
used iu that part of the world is
crude, tough paper made of hast. The
tree from which the material is derived
is the paper mulberry, or Broussonetia
papyrifera, which is grown in planta
tions under the sole charge of womet
and is also found wild in all parts of
the islands. In archipelagoes so high
ly advanced as Samoa and Tonga,
where women have none of the coarser
work to do, the entire care of the mul
berry plantations rests with the wom
en of each village.
The trees are planted closely to
sure a spindling growth without lat
eral branches. The plaut will grow
from seed. In such a climate there
no difficulty about getting tilings to
grow, but experience has shown that
betTr results follow the planting of
twigs from the sturdier wild trees. In
about three years from planting the
tree will be in the best condition for
the clotlimakers. In that time it will
attain a height of twelve feet or more,
and tlie trunk will have a uniform di
ameter of rather less than two inches.
About four feet of the trunk is waste
and not available for the particular
purpose for which the tree is grown;
the first two feet from the base is too
tough to work well, aud the two feet
at the top is too soft. If the tree is
properly growu and left to mature,
there will lie available for the cloth-,
maker a stick of eight feet in the clear
and as straight as a measuring rod,
without knots or branches and of uni
form girth throughout. — New York
