the South. The attention of the
readers of The Post is directed to it.

Yesterday was bright and bcauti- |
full after the week of rain we have |
just had. A day well calculated to
make a man thankful that he was
living. 1
The New Orleans cotton exchang-
” 1
makes the cotton crop market 7,311, (
322 bales, the largest ever produced
by 373,032 bales. Os this the South *
consumed 546,303 bales, against
481,242 last year, an increase of 189
per cent, in the number of bales con 1
sumed in the South. The South has x
270 mills and 1,005,019 spindles. 1
Mr. J. A. Carroll, who has been
the city editor of Tint Post since its
first issue in April, resigned his po- (
sltion last Saturday to go into the g
insurance business. Mr. Carroll is t
c. young man of fine business attain y
ments and will doubtless do well in
the business he has chosen. The
Post wishes him unbounded success.
r
The: Cincinnati Commercial-Ga- ’
zette which has been howling for
many years about the oppression of *
the colored people in the Southern 1
States* practically admits that what
it has been saying all along was not
true. “The colored man seems to be
getting along,” it says in a late is
sue. “Richmond, Birmingham and
Chattanooga have banks, each oper
ated by negroes, with paid up capi
tals each of 150,000. There is also
a bank run by representative colored
business men at Atlanta, Ga., with a
paid-up capital of $13,000. The
three banks first named are officered
by leading and reliable citizens in
their respective communities.” “We
have no bank in Charleston operated
by negroes,” says the Charleston
News and Courier, but there is doubt,
less not one of the many banking
institutions in the city which bus
not a respectable number of colored
depositors. In one of the banks one
colored man has $15,000 to his credit I
and there are numbers of smaller
colored depositors. It is not going |
too far to say that the colored peo- I
pie of Charleston can command more
ready’ money than the colored people
of any other Southern city.
SHOULD BE HANGED.
The man who tries to wreck a
train should be hanged.
There have been a number of at
tempts to wreck trains on the New
York Central since the strike began
and last Thursday one so far sue
reeded, that a train crowded with
passengers and running at full speed,
was thrown from the track, and a
terrible disaster was missed by the
most narrow chance imaginable.
But for the testimony of fact, it
would be inconceivable that men
could anywhere be guilty of a crime '
so cruel, so dastardly, so infamous,
and there ought to be means of 1
promptly putting to death any and '
everybody guilty of it.
When crime of this character,
closely follows a strike, as in this
case, it is the highest duty of the ‘
strikers and their labor organizations ,
to give emphasis to their detests- <!
tiofi of such infamies by reuderiug ’
all possible aid in discovering the
lai sere ants. .

About Sharpening a Knife.
It is a good deal easier to spoil a
knife than to sharpen it. To begin
with, a rough stone is used too freely.
Unless a knife has a very round or
raggisl edge it does not want any
grinding at all, and it can be brought
into sba|s' fur more rapidly and surely
by the aid of a whetstone and a little
oil. It is no use laying the blade flat
the stone and rubbing hard; hold
the back of the knife well up and
sluu-|s-n the edge of the blade only. If
you know how to use it, the buck of
a knife makes an excellent steel 04

Breeding Fleet for Wolves.
Canadian farmers, having been trou
bled sorely for many years by wolves
and coyotes, are taking determin.-.l [
steps toward ridding themselves of ]
] these pests. The Canadian wolves are ]
not particularly ferocious, but they are j
sufficiently bold to be a constant men- i
i ace to the flocks and herds. Dogs have
b<*ou utilized for tlie protection of the ■
sheep and cattle, but it remained for
I Sir .John Lister Kaye to iuqiort a num-
I her <>f Belgian. French and .Scotch 1
■ hounds for the special purpose of hunt-,
, ingand exterminating the wolves. The
j ex[s*riinent has been attended with
j fair success, but it is discovered that
, more effectual service would lie done jf
the dogs were capable of greater sjM'ed.
I With a view, therefore, of insuring
■ the desired fleefiiessMr. Dan Gordon, of
j Ottawa, has bought two of the fastest
i and best bred greyhounds in England,
I and be e\(M-cts tosecurcby means of ju
I dieious crossing of breeds splendid dogs I
I for wolf hunting. 'Die wolf nuisance
in Canada is more serious than we sup
1 pose; in one day seventeen of the beasts
I were killed by a party of three men
who scouted over the Cochrane ranch.
To Russia, however, must we go to find
wolves of singular ferocity and in large
numbers. Seventy thousand were killed
in the Vologda and Casan districts in
1889. It is officially estimated that
I*o,ooo are still running at large in
Russia, and they multiply exceedingly
fast. Eugene Field in Chicago News.
T!w Power of the Moonstone.
Tlierc is a j«*rfect mania for moon
stones, not always to be worn as orna
ments, but to be carried about the per
son rs a temptation to good fortune
and success. To show how deep seated
is this Is-lief I will quote from a letter
received by a dealer in gems from an
unlucky artist: “Having heard of your
wonderful fortune compelling moon
stones 1 send immediately for one. hop
ing that it may dissipate the ill luck
that has followed me for some time.
Though not a believer in necromancy I
am inclined to accept this with my
whole heart. If you can add an extra
charm to it 1 will remain your debtor
for lifu,"
Once in a while one catches a glimpse
of a humorous side to this superstition,
as in the case of a well known newspa
per man who, being in love witli a
young woman many years his junior,
di<l not dare to try his fate until he bad
' a moonstone which held a “magic mir
' ror.” Qne wae easily found for him,
: and it must have brought him the cov
eted suocese, oince he was married .
] within six months to the "object" of |
j his adoration. -Bally Joy White.
Proving' Hie Kurth’s Shape. I ■
It was not until 1669 that Picard,
under the auspices of the French Acad
emy of Sciences, reduced the degree to
anything like a certainty. His plan
was to connect two points by a series
'of triangles, thus ascertaining the 1
] length of the arc of a meridian inter-; |
coptisl between them, to compare it
with the difference of latitudes found
by making celestial observations. The
stations used were Melvoisine, in the
vicinity of Paris, and Bourdon, near
Amiens. While these measurements |
were being made a discussion arose as
| to the interpretation of them, some af
' drilling that they indicated a prolate,
' others an oblate spheroid.
The former figure may be popularly
I represented by’ a lemon, the latter by
]an orange. To prove which was right
; Picard's observations were extended far
j to the north and south, one expedition s
going to Peru, the other to Lapland,
i The Peruvian expedition worked nine
I years on the question, tlie Lapland
' about five. The results of the meas- f
] liras thus obtained confirmed the theo- '
I retical expectations of the oblate form,

Ju a Loudon Drug Store.
There is a wide difference between
the London ding stores and ours.
There is no such craze for patent medi
cines there as here, and there is noth
ing like the American inclination for
every’ man to be his own doctor. An ,
English druggist sells face powder, co- •
logne, soap, tooth brushes, patent pills
and the like, but his main business is
putting up prescriptions, lie has no
clientele of men who drop in for a lit
tle aromatic spirits of ammonia after a
night of dissipation, or for acid phos
phate after too much smoking, or for j
tincture of iron and so many grains of
quinine, or a glass of Calisaya for a
tonic, or a teaspoonful of bicarbonate
of soda to offset a too hearty meal. All I
that which so enriches our druggists I
is unknown in England.—Julian Ralph I
in Harper’s Weekly.
