Scott&Bowne, N. Y. All Druggist. 60c and I-
Oold Reserve Diminishes.
Washington, Jan. 25. The secretary
of the treasury has authorized for sale
gold bars for export ou the payment of a
premium of of 1 per cent to, cover the
cost of manufacture! and transportation,
and this morning $1,000,000 was taken
on these terms. There were withdrawn
$3,800,000 coin and 900,000 additional
was engaged for export tomorrow, mak
ing up at noon $5,700,000. This leaves
the gold reserve $58,024,428, and the
amount of gold, coin on. band above the
amount of outstanding gold certificates,
$10,912,280. . Treasury officials, however,
do not regard the amount of coin re
ceived on deposit for certificates as sa
cred to their- redemption, bat will con
tinue to pay out gold on demand for
legal tender. It is deemed amply suffi
cient. There is enough- gold : in either
coin or bars to meet the demand on the
gold certificate. While the situation is
regarded as a very trying one, there is no
thought of anything so serious as to in
volve the credit of the government,
which the secretary will fully maintain
at all hazards.
It May Do as Much for Ton.

SOUTHERN PLANTATIONS.
Conducted Differently from the Way They
Were Managed Under the Old Regime, j
Plantations at the present day are
conducted very differently from the
way they were managed under the old
regime. The one I have in mind com
prises something over five thousand
acres. The proprietor reserves about
two hundred and fifty acres for his
own planting and rents out the re
mainder to small farmers, who give
him so many pounds or bales of cotton
for the rent, in proportion to the quan
tity and quality of the particular piece
of ground they cultivate, the size of
house and corn house of which they
have the use, etc. Much discrimina
tion is required in the selection of ten
ants, for defective or indifferent farm
ing will impoverish the land and en
danger the landlord's chances of col
lecting his rent. Most of the tenants
are negroes, forty families of that race
residing on the place.
Of these, says the Boston Transcript,
there are a number who are excellent
farmers, thrifty, industrious, .prompt
in paying their obligations, and thor
oughly interested in everything that
pertains . to . their business, the wife
working as hard as her husband hard
er, in' fact, because when her field work
is over she cooks the simple meals,
washes the clothes and patches the gar
ments for her numerous family by the
blaze of a light wood torch, after the
members of the household are rolled in
their respective "quilts" and voyaging
in slumberland. She does more than
this, for she raises chickens and tur
keys, sometimes geese and ducks, using
the eggs for pocket money and to ob
tain the tobacco which is as necessary
to her comfort as to that of her hus
band and sons.
The majority of the negroes go to
work in the early morning, with no
breakfast, or perhaps only a crust to
nibble on. When they come in, at
twelve o'clock, a stirabout is made (a
dish concocted of corn meal, salt and
water, and looking very much as the
name suggests) of which all the family
partake, the elder members eating an
"allowance" of bacon. Any luxuries
they may enjoy appear at the evening
meal, such as coffee, flour, etc. Usually,
however, their fare is of the simplest,
and cold water their beverage, except
on Sundays and high days, celebrated
usually with reference to some reli
gious festival. Too much credit cannot
be given these hard-working wives and
mothers, who hoe, rake, cook, . wash,
chop, patch and mend, from morning
until night. Very often garments will
be patched until scarcely a trace of the
original foundation material can be
seen, and there are many cases where
the wife is much the best "cottoja chop
per" of the two, and her work far more
desirable than her husbands.,. . , ...
HORSES FOR UNCLE SAM.
Animals for Cavalry" Service Obtained
. Very Cheaply.
"' The government has been picking up
horses, for ' the cavalry and ; artillery
service vary cheap in Washington and
Oregon this summer. - The .average
price paid was seventy-five dollars for
each animal; which is uncommonly low
when the Btyle of animal required for
the army is considered. A government
purchasing agent says: "We inspected
recently at The Dalles, Pendleton,
Walla Walla, Ellensburgh and North
Yakima; and at each place found about
one hundred awaiting examination.
selected such as met the requirements,
which are that they must be bays and
grays, fifteen hands high and upward,
and from four to eight years old.
These were passed upon by the gov
ernment officials, and, if found satis
factory, were accepted. They were
purchased at a very low price, as the
sellers had but little money, and were
anxious to dispose of their stock. The
animals bought are of fine class, and
especially suited for cavalry purposes,
The lowness of the cost of horses this
year may be attributed to the small
demand, which is insignificant when
compared with the supply. Never be'
fore during the fifteen years or so that
I have been inspecting- horses for the
government have I seen times so dull
in the stock regions, or the stock deal
ers so anxious to sell their animals at a
small price. The small demand is, of
course, due to the supplanting of horse
cars by electric and cable railways, the
shutting down of logging, camps and
lumber industries on Puget sound, and
the general dullness of trade. In Port
land cars which would require thirty-
five hundred horses are operated by
cable and electricity. Then the freight
cars operated on these steel railways
have shut out trucks and delivery
wagons on which a large number of
horses were used.
