Thb arreBt of General Buatamente.,
the Central American revolutionist, on
hoard the American steamer, City of
Sydney, by the authorities of Salvador,
is claimed as a gross insult to tbe
United States, but it is hardly probable
that any serious consequences will ens
sue therefrom. Salvador will be pro
fuse in apologies and Undo Sam will,
most likely, accept them. The occa?
sional execution of a prominent revolu?
tionist in Central and South America is
more conducive to law and order in'
those countries than otherwise.
Tub: recent attempt at yacht racing;
between representative vessels of Eng?
land and the United States, while a
miserable failure demonstrates the in?
tense feeling of rivalry and jealousy
now existing on tho part of tho people
of the two countries, if it does not estab?
lish the superior seamanship of either.
Tho decision of tbe Now York Yacht
-Club in favor of tbo Defender in tbe
claim of a foul against Valkyrie was
partisan and unnecessary; while tbe
withdrawal of the British yacht by Lord
Dunraven from the race yesterday was
anexhibltion of spleen, wholly unworthy
of a sportsman and an Englishman.
The fact is the feoiing of jealousy on
the part of,Englishmen against America
is so permanent and pervading and the
feeling of nationality in tho States bo
strong that it seems impossible for
either, where their own country is co' -
corned, to divest themselves of all
prejudice and see a contest out in that
Fpirin of fair play f;?r which Anglo
Saxons were at one timo proverbial.
Mil. Tukodokk Roosevelt, president
of tho tho New York board of police
commissioners, now that his elTorts in
tho direction of closing the 3aloons on
Sunday in that city are apparently
successful, has turned bi3 attention to
tbo hightonod social clubs of tho
inetropclis, and declares that they too
shall bo held amenable to tho law. As
he is himself a memborof ono of these
organ:iitions he can at least claim tbe
merit of consistency in extending hla
program of preventing Sunday liijuor
selling to them. In this case, however,
it will bo much more difficult to obtain
evidence than in tbo case of the saloons,
as tbe clubhouses and tbeir appur?
tenances are tho property of their aria
tooratlc members, and officers of tbe
law, it is olalmed, have no more right
inside them than in a private residence,
unleSB tbe charges of Sunday liquor
selling are sustained by reputable wit?
nesses. And again, it does not follow
because the clubs are to be investigated
that they are guilty of breaking tho
law. Tbe commissioner only desires
to ascertain If tbo methods of conduct?
ing such establishments are in accord?
ance with the law of the citato and city
of New York, and tho question is, will
he be able to do this in every case'.'
SOUTMEKN PKOGIiESS.
Tho Manufacturers' Record, in Us
weokly report of Southern business
conditions, Hays: "The largo falling off
in the cotton crop, as compared with
laut year, will bo more than counter?
balanced by the great incroaso in price
which this crop is bringing compared
with last year's. In addition to this,
the South has raisod a remarkably largo
corn crop and an abundant supply of
provioionB and diversified farm products
thus putting tbo farmers of tbe South
In better condition than for many years.
"Cottou mill internals continue active
and during the week a number of enter?
prises have bosn reported. The Union
Mills Company, now running 13,000
spindles, at Union, S. C, will build a
new mill, to be equipped with -10.000
spindles and 1,230 looms at an aggro
gate cost of over half a million dollars.
"A New York company Is figuring on
the building of a million dollar mill in
the South. A company has been organ
lead at Ooldaboro, N. C, with 860,000
capital to purchase and re-equip the
old mill. A 875,000 company has been
organized at Winnaboro, S. C. A 8100,.
C.jO cotton compress company has been
organized in Louisiana and a cylindrical

BRIDGING THE BLOODY CHASM.
A correspondent of tho Baltimore Sun
in writing of the great piogross of tho
South In rooent years in material de?
velopment gives a glowing account of
the cotton mills in Georgia and iron
making in Alabama. Of tblB latter in- j
dustry, among other things, he says:
"A prominent resident of Atlanta told
tho writer that In tho Birmingham dis?
trict the richness of the iron mine was
almost beyond belief. Near there is
one mill where a bank of coal lies on
one side and an iron mino on the other,
with lime not a mile away. The iron
lies on top of the ground, almost pure,
and they have never reached the bottom
of the coal voln. With such advan?
tages it is surprising that capital has
been kept out of this region so long."
In regard to the great Interest mani?
fested by ex-Union soldiers in the
South as a place for settlement, the cor?
respondent tells of the wonderful
change of sentiment in the following
graphic lines: "Wh9re they formerly
brought strife, bloodshed and financial
ruin, the Northern army now brings
peaceful immigrants, capital, pros?
perity and development. That tho
South feels kindly toward the North is
evinced in Atlanta by the fact that the
Confederate post there has extended
a most cordial invitation to a Grand
Army of tbo Republic post in Chicago to
attend the Exposition, and the Grand
Army of the Republic post in Atlanta
numbers some two hundred men. In
addition to this tho vice-president of
tho exposition is a Grand Army man,
and a number of Atlanta's most promi?
nent business men, and men who have
the interests of Atlanta and the South
moss at heart, are men who shouldered
a gun on the side of the North in the
late war.
"And they aro well treated in At-*
lanta. A distinguished A tlanta* jour?
nalist, himself an ex-Confederate and a
warm advocate of Southern interests,
told the correspondent that Atlanta was
proud lo acknowledge as residents these
same Northerners. They were received
in society, ho said, as well as though
they wore originally Southerners, and
were treated in business the same way."
It is in the encouragement of such sen?
timents that much of the South'a bopo of
progress and development lies. These
same soldiers who came to this section
with arms in their hands during the
war if hospitably received will prove
strong friends and useful slsizens.
Ab they were marching through the
South during their four years of travel,
they had ample opportunity of noting
the advantages of climate and produc?
tions of the soil, as well as many of the
undeveloped resources of this section,
and the fact that long years afterwards
they should b3 anxious to make their
bomes here is an advertisement better
than tons of paper and hundreds of
gallons o( printer's ink without such
testimonials. They are coming, and
their relatives and friends all through
the North and West will follow their
example, till the rush will not only be
from those sections, but will be joined
in by thrifty and Industrious emigrants
from England, Scotland and Germany.
The chances thus outlined for this
section aro nut ldlo dreams, but are
already in the prccesa of rapid realiza?
tion and depend wholly upon what
efforts tho men of the South make to
use the grand opportunities now
afforded them. The way has been
cleared, the road cut and the pioneers
are already on the ground, with thous?
ands looking in this direction ready and
eager to follow them.

raven for a statement of the reasons for
his action in withdrawing from the
thirl day for the America's cup. Tho
following reply has been received from
New York:
"Owing to tho excessive crowding by
steamers at tbe first two races, and
especially at the start of and on tbe last
ten miles of tho second race, I notified
the cup commit tee on the 10th instant,
requesting that the lettor be not opened
until after a decision had been rendered
with regard to the foul at tho start of
the second race, that owing to the
danger of a serious accidont by collision
with the excursion steamers and other?
wise, and owing to tho absolute ab?
surdity of carrying on races under such
conditions, I should decline to start un?
less Borne arrangement was made to race
in clear water.
"I requested a postponement of to?
day's raco with a view of arriving at
such an arrangement. The committee
found It impossible to concede. I then
notified them that I should be at Sandy
Hook lighthouse this mornincc for the
purpose of giving Defender a start.

A WEDDING BCOILKD,
And It Came Near Being a Funeral
Instead.
Last Thursday night, says the VVin
Bton-Salem (N. C.) Sentinel, there ar?
rived in Salisbury a young lady and
gentleman, who were registered at tho
Mt Vernon Hotel as J. D. Cardler and
lady, Lyncbburg, Va. The young lady
was shown to room No. 14, and the
gentleman went In quest of 'Squiro
Murphy, telling him that he wanted tbe
knot tied. He was informed that he
should apply to the register of deeds for
license. Mr. Woodson, upon being told
that tbe young lady was sixteen years
of ago, refused to issuo tbe license.
About 11 o'clock the clerk at tho hotel
discovered that gas was escaping and
found that it camo from the room that
bad been assigned to the young lady.
Sho was immediately awakened and in?
formed them that she had blown out the
gas. She gavo her name as Miss \V.
a. Weber of Lynchbuig, Va., and ad?
mitted that she was only 14 Tho gen?
tleman apoeared to be 40.
They left on thoWeuc-rn train Friday
morning with a determtnation to marry,
but nothing has been heard from them
since that time. Had it nos been for
tbo clerk's timely assistance Miss
Weber would have been suffocated, as
tbe gas was already quite dense.

Father Wt-lbere, of St. Joseph's Church.
When first seen, about a month ago.
Marable related how ho hud been con?
verted and joined the Hapt'st Church
some four years ago, but upon question?
ing he was found to be utterly ignorant
about the very fundamen:al truths of
roliglcn. Since then he has been visited
regularly by Father Welbsrs and two
Franciscan sisters, who instructed him
in the principles of the Christian re?
ligion, and last week ho expressed bis
desire to join tbe Catholic Church. On
Monday morning, therefore, he made
tbe required profession of faith and
confession, whereupon he received con?
ditional baptism, with the usual cere?
monies
Father Welbers baa interested him?

A DAPPER LITTLE WARRIOR.
Brave bot Dumpy Old Hord Saltoun, the.
Hero of Hougomont.
In thosu long gone by tlnys bravo old
Lord Saltonn, tho hero of Hougomont,
resided during the fishing season in tho
mansion bonso of Auebinruath, on tho
high ground at tho mouth of tho Glen
of Rothes. One morning, some five aud
forty years ago, my father drove to
breakfast with tho old lord, ami took
mo with him. Not earing to send the
horses to tho stable, ho left mo outside
in the dogcart when ho entered tho
house. As I waited, rather sulkily?for
I was very hungry?there canto unt on
to the doorsteps a very queer looking
old person, short of lijMire, round as a
ball, bis head stink between very high
and rounded shoulders, and with short,
Stumpy legs. He was curiously attired
in a whole colored suit of gray, a droll
shaped jacket, the groat collar of which
reached far up the hack of his head,
surmounted by a pair of voluminous
Ireechcs, which suddenly tightened at ,
tho knee. I imagined him to be tho
butler in morning dishabille, aud when
he accosted me good uaturedly, asking
to whom tho dogcart ami myself be?
longed, I answered him somewhat
Bhortlya and then ingenuously suggested
that he would bo doing me a kindly net
if he would go and fetch mo out a bunk
of bread nud meat, for I was enduring
tortures of hungor.
Then ho swore, and that with vigor
and fluency, that it was a Bhanio that I
should havo beeu left outside, called a
groom and bade me alight and come in
doors with him. I demurred?I had gor
tho paternal injunction to remain with
tho horse and cart. "I am master here!"
exclaimed the old person impetuously,
and with further strong language ho ex?
pressed his intention of rating my fa?
ther roundly for not having brought ino
inside along with himsolf. Then a ques?
tion occurred to mo, and I ventured to
ask, "Aro you Lord Saltoun'.'" "Of
course I am," replied the old gentle?
man. "Who the devil elso should I
be?" Well, I did not like to avow what
I felt, but in truth I was hugely disap?
pointed in him, for I had just been
reading Siboruo's "Waterloo," and to
think that this dumpy old follow in tho
duffel jacket that came np over his ears
was tho valiant hero who had held
Hougomont through caunon fire and
musketry tiro, and hand to hand bayonet
lighting on tho day of Waterloo, while
tho post be was defending was ablaze,
and who had actually killed Frenchmen
with his own good sword, was n severe
disouchautnii ut.?Nineteenth Century.
Don Kelly Saved the Dansousc.
Accidents have happened onthostage.
Tho skirts of ballot dancers hive caught
fire, and tho unhappy dhnseuscs havo
died from tho effects. Tho story will
not soon be forgotten of Michael Kelly
in "Lodioskn." The lasi scene repre?
sented a cast lo on lire, and tho beautiful
Mrs. Crouch, as tho Princess, was to ho
seen at u window. Tho draft carried
the dames toward her, and Kelly, si r?
ing her danger, rushed up a stage bridge
to save her, but the supports of this
bridge had beeu removed prematurely
by the carpenter, and Kelly fell to the
ground.
"At tho same time," says Kelly in
his "Memoirs," "tho fiery tower, in
which wa.s Airs. Crouch, sank down in
a blaze, with a violent crash. Sho ut?
tered u scream of terror. Providentially
I was not hurt by the fall, and catching
her in my arms, scarcely knowing what
I was doing, I t arried her to the front
of the stage. The applause was load and
continued. In fact, had wo rehearsed
the scene as ii happened, it could uot
have been done half so naturally or pro?
duced so great an effect."
Ii was not the escape which made this
incident memorable, but Kelly's hull.
Ho was furious at tho accident and
rushed at Kemblo, who was manager,
shouting, "1 might havo been killed en?
tirely, and who (hen?who would have
maintained mo for tho rest of my lifo?"
?Good SVords.

country printing office was, in effect, that if he ever owned or man?
aged a printing establishment, it would be kopt clean, at least by
comparison. At that time bo hardly felt tho force of the vow, for he
has learned after years of experience that it is necessary immediately
alter one "going over" to start at tho beginning and go over it al 1
again. It never ends?just like a housekeeper's duties?but not like
tho boy who sees no u>e in washing his face because it will get
