INSURANCE FOR '.RAILWAY EM- PLOYES.

It is a little surprising that no Amorican road has adopted the English system of insurance for employes. Tho Pennsylvania aud the Baltimore and Ohio have excellent relief departments, nn- tier which tho funds of the men aro administered by tho compa- nies, free of charge. A number of roads have built hospitals and employed surgeous for the care of those injured; while all compa nies spend money for the relief of disabled employes in various ways. Yet it is all indefinite and somewhat of the nature of charity ; it forms no part of tho implied contract of employment. When the employers' liability act was passed in England, the British railway took alarm—needlessly, as it has turned out. They insti- tuted departments for insurance against accidents, death aud old age. Membership was made compulsory and servants had to waive their rights under tho act. In return, tho companies agreed to OOntribate to each fund an amount each year equal to tho total contribution of the employes These funds aro managed by committees formed from railway officers and servants, and the scale of payments is figured out by actuaries according to the statistics of accidents iu past years.

These funds have now accumu- lated balances amounting to sev- eral millions of pounds sterling. In the accident department, for example, each trainman pays six cents per week. He is entitled to five hundred dollars in case of death by accident or permanent disability ; or weekly allowance of fivo dollars when temporarily dis- abled. Tho officers and clerks receiving regular salaries contri- bute two and a half per cent of their stipends to a superaunua tion fund. Upon retirement, each receives as a pension a percent- age of his salary, that percentage varying with length of service; after thirty years' service it amounts to half his salary. There is also provision for death Another fund provides pensions for tho wage-earners. When it is remembered that railway servants of all classes in England receive much l.>ss pay thau our own men, these sums are very liberal and are to be measured by tho small payments required. If a man leaves the company's service in good faith he receives back his own contributions only. If ho is discharged for fraud or dishou eatjP he forfeits tho whole, at tho option of the company. In this simple plan of insurance maybe found one of the reasons for the excellent discipline on t!ie|English railways, Tho co up my testifies to its interest in its employes b> contributing to their insurance from its own earnings. In the United States, unfortunately, there has grown up a feeling of antagonism between the corpora tion aud tho employe. What can be d ">ue to bring these two great forces into better sympathy with each other? The plan of insur anee against death, disability an.I oi I age, through tho help of the company, would do mneh to •..ring about a reconciliation, to say nothing of th ■ relief to the injured from the point of view of humanity.—Engineering Maga- zine for November,

WXDXESDAY. NOVEMBER 39, 1893

Entered at th>- postolflce at Greenville, V. CM as second-class mail matter.

Tomorrow is the day set apart by proclamation of the President followed by the Governor of each 8t*te, as a day of Thanksgiving. This is a custom that has been observed for a long period of time. It should never be discarded. This is a Nation which professes to be not only civilized but Chtis- fcanized. and it is fitting that there Shall be at least one day in each year set apart for general thanks firing. The Divine Ruler of all the earth has through years and years seemingly made this land the special object of his care and ire have been preserved and kept as a Nation free from pestilence, famine, and war, and given a reasonable share of prosperity. All the people on this day ought to assemble in their respective places of worship and acknowl- edge this good in praise, prayer and worship- When ever we as a people forget God our prosper- ity will cease and we will then start on the decline. How im- portant then that our creator should not be forgotten in the midst of our busy daily work. The nearer we live to the giver of all good, the better it will be for us as a people. Let the day be properly observed.

Capt. John O'Connor, an Irish Confederate scont of great daring, and for whose head the Federals offered a reward, died at his home in Norfolk, Vs., a few days ago. His field of operations was mainly around Newbern under Gen. Robert Ransom.

Some of the Washington cor- respondents were saying la-jt week that Postmaster General Bissell was about to become converted from his stubbornness, and had made up his mind to go into . general head chopping business next month Ono correspondent ■aid that the President, too, is realizing that it is necesary to make his administration thor- oughly Democratic if he expects the Democratic Senators and Representatives to stand by him to a man in carrying out his poli- cies. That is the idea that the South especially has been want- ing him to come to- \\ hen the people down this way voted for him they not only meant by that vote that they wanted a Denio- •ratic President, but also that they wanted every office under him to be filled by men of the same political faith Because the Administration has been so slow to make changes is the rea- son there has been so much kicking and so much lukewarin- ness- if it is a Democratic ad- ministration Democrats must have the offices. We hope the President will stir Bissell up.

A man in a neighboring town occupies quite a space in his local paper writing about State banks and finances. It is strange how much some people affect to know about the way to help out financial troubles, and how far •hort they themselves come in practicing the true theory for better times. About the best way to help the finances of your sec. tion is to pay what debts you owe, then the man you pay will be enabled to go and pay some body he owes, and so oa until a great number will be beuefitted by the first payment. Le6s theory and more practice is what the couutry needs DOW.

The North Carolina University foot ball team played a game iu New York, Saturday, with the Leigh University team- The N- C boys gave them a hard fight but lost the game for lack of training. Two of the Carolinians were hurt aud had to retire from the game, one of them being Harry Whedbee of Greenville. The REFLECTOB hopes his injuries were only slight A great deal has been said ot late about the brute''ty of the foot ball game and a cry is goiDg up for its abatement.

If Postmaster General Bissell is this kind of a man we are not surprised that he has been show- ing such great love for the Repu- blicans bv keeping so many of them in office. He ought to be kicked oat of the Cabinet. Look here what the Charlotte Observer has to say about him :

When Mr. Wilson S. Bissell Was appointed Postmaster Gen- eral, Comptroller Frank Campbell, of the State of New York, sent kirn congratulations. Week be- fore last, when Comptroller Camp bell was defeated for re-election, Mr- Bissell sent his congratula- tions to the successful Republican candidate. This shows what sort of a Democrat Mr. Bissell is, and also what sort of a man. He has no more business in a Democratic cabinet than Mr. Ingersoll has in a Methodist Conference.

Ex. Governor Jeremiah Rusk, of Wisconsin, died on Tuesday of last week- He had been several rimes elected Governor of his State, and was Secretary of Agri- culture in President Harrison's' Cabinet. I

Colector F. M- Simmons was sworn iu at Raleigh on Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock. There are two hundred positions to be tilled by hi in. and it is said there were twelve hundred applications for them- Tiie latest information from Washington indicates that Mr. Elias. who was appointed as Collector for the Western District, is going to resign.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

(Fioin our Regular Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, D. C, NOV, 25, 18M.

The conservative and forbear- ing disposition of the adminis- tration in dealing with the various phases of the Hawaiian question has added to the good effect up- on public opinion of the publi- cation, early this week, of Com- missioner Blount's report, upon which the policy of the adminis- tration was largely based. It has taken no official notice _ of the very unusual and injudicious ac- tion of Mr. Thurston. the minister here of the Provisional govern- ment of Hawaii, in writing and giving to the press an answer to Mr. Blount's report, containing language that would not have been tolerated from a foreign minister by any other government in the world. Had the adminis- tration upon the appearance in the newspapers of Mr. Thnrston's defense sent that gentleman his paw-ports no one wouid have had any light to complain : it would only have followed precedents set by every civilized government in the world, iueludiuir our own the offense for wiiich Lord Sack- ville-West, the then British win ister, was sent his passports was trivial cuupared with what Mr. Thurston lias done. _ It is not improbable that President Cleve laud iu ignoring the bad break of Mr. Thurston was influenced by the thought that the Hawaiian minister was perhaps only too anxious to po»e as a martyr. But whatever the object on eitliei side the fact remains that Mr. Thurston was guilty of an act that would have driven a foreign minister from any other country and that not the slightest official notice was taken of it by the ad ministration, and this forbearance is cenerallv recognized as alto- gether creditable to the adminis- tration,

Aside from the publication of Mr. Blount's report and Mr. Thurston's reply to it, there have been no new developments this week. No one outside of the cabinet aud a few members of the Senate and House knows the exact nature of the instructions given to Minister Willis, and Congressmen, outside of a few of the most heedless, recognize the absurdity of attempting to express an intelligent opinion in the absence of that knowledge. When Cougress meets everything connected with the Hawaiian mat- ter will doubtless be made public. Then the public can and will pass judgment, and no member of tue administration has any doubt of the nature of that judgment.

The Democratic members of the House comittee on Ways and Means are working from 10 A. M- to 11 P. M- every day, in order to get the new tariff bill ready by next Monday, so as to give the Republican members of the com- mittee an opportunity to prepare their report by the time Congress meets- The Republicans, having made a miserable failu e of their attempts to cajole the Democratic members of the committee into the retention of duties that are purely protective, have now taken a new tack, but the result will be the same- They are now circnla ting reports that Democratic Congressmen froin whose districts petititions asking for protection for this or that industry have been sent to the committee will, if that protection is not given by the new bill (aud it certainly will not be except in the few cases in which the duty imposed for reve- nue may incidentally give protec- tion) vote with the Republicans against the bill. After a most diligent search I have failed to fiud a single Democrat who will acknowledge auy_ contingency that would cause him to vote with the Republicans against the bill, although there are a few Demo- crats who would have been pleased had the petitions of their constituents been granted, and who expect to lose their seats in Congress if they are not granted- It can be predicted with absolute certainty that fewer Democrats in the House will vote against the Wilson tariff bill than there were Republicans who voted against the McKinley bill.

Secretary Carlisle is the reci- pient of congratulations from all sides on the able financial speech he delivered this week before the New York Chamber of Commerce, and many are of the opinion that it will have a highly beneficial effect upon the business of the country.

It is expected that President Cleveland's message to Congress will deal so fully with the financial policy of the administration that the Republican calamity waiters will fiud themselves deprived of their principal argument—the allegation there is a doubt about the financial intentions of the ad- ministration- The message to- gether with the new tariff bill put those intentions before the public so plainly that there can be no misunderstanding and no doubt

'i ney siiould be sliced and the i '•' i ■" tited. Then to use them they a~e soaked to restore the evapora- ted m ,; •force and then baked in pans as fr*.,. fres*i ones often are. They are an admirable article for paddings and pies. For this purpose it w >n; the row as dug, ancf do not allow them to be brnised by throwing into piles. Handle at all times as gently as eggs. Allow them to lie in the sun during tne day, and in the evening haul to a con- venient place. Place good layer a foot thick of pine straw on the ground, and on this pile the potatoes in steep heaps,

; not over 3.5 bushels in a pile. Cover the piles thickly all over with the dry pine straw—now build a rough board shed over the piles, and let them remain un- til the weather grows colder, or until they have gone through a sweat and dried off. Then cover the heaps with earth six or eight inches thick and beat smooth. The important points are the sweiting under the previous cover of the pine straw before covering with earth, very careful handling, and the board cover overhead. T/>ry estrth keeps out more cold than wet earth. If for family use, put in smaller piles and take up an entire heap at once for ase. keeping them in a dry warm place while using.

KatiotiH Tor Fattening Pig*. (Answered by F. E. Emery, Agriculturist, N. C.

Experiment station.) J. D. G., Lexington, N. Crf Your ra-

tion referred to below is a very good one, and calculated to grow and fatten the pigs well and fast, but as they get heavier, however, you should widen the ration.

Do this by increasing corn and wheat bran in proportion to pea meal, and then increase corn alone. At 125 lbs weight, the standard calls for ratio be- tween protein and earborhydrates in the food equal to 1 to 5 1-2. \ our ration is now about 1 to 3 3-4 or too narrow for the size of pig, weighing probably 50 lbs. More corn would suit better now f»r a abort time. Then increase bran to 100, pea meal remaining 50, and corn to 200 ibs. The first change raises the ratio to about 1 to 5 1-4 and the last 1 to 6 1-4. You can make one or two intermediate ratios to advantage and get the pigs on the widest ration with the new lower cost corn. Changes may be tiiux •

I believe the strongest evidence is against it. Some careful tests were in favor of feeding the food dry and allowing the animals free access to pure water.

We advise you to l>eef her on one of the rations in Bul- letin 80 p. 14, and put the beef money into a young cow free from bad habits. If the cow was a frdl blooded and regis- tered animal it would be a different matter, bnt for inferior stock it is not worth the trouble. If yoa desire to save the heifer and keep on the side bars continually for a long time, two

j or three years, she may forget it hut the first act of licking an itching place may recall it even then, and yonr trouble be all for naught.

Powellville, N. < . (Answered by Gerald McCarthy, Botanist, N.

C. Experiment sfation.) The plant is monotropa uniflora, com-

j monly called Indian pipe and Fit Root, j It lacks ehlorophyl. the green coloring mother of plants, and is therefore un- able to assimilate food from the air and soil. It lives as a parasite on the leaves of pine trees. This plant is highly es- teemed by homeopathic physicians as a remedy in epilepsy and in consequence has a high commercial value where it occurs in any quantity. Borricke A Fofel, pharmacists of Philadelphia deal in it. Before collecting it for market H will be well to communicate with this firm. '

The other day a boat came in out of the morning mist after a night with the drift nets, far out in the broad bay, and landed on the rude wharf at Capitola, with its glitter- ing load of salmon, and a thing that puzzled even the old residents by the shore. Some of them called it a squirrel fish and others a rat fish.

k The thing had a tail like a goose I feather, a soft, pulpy nose, a horn in its forehead with a spiked point and a socket into which to drop it when not in use; a pair of organs, half

1 hands, half feet, below its ventral | fins, and a mouth like a shark's, with close-fitting teeth of serrated car- tilage. It was close to two feet long, and its ugly body shone when fresh from the water with hues ranging from pearly wtiite to a deep lustrous green, while its great, star- ing eyes seemed like two perfect emeralds.

The academy's ichthyologist didn't think the fish much of a cqrio, re- marking that itr had been discov- ered long enough ago for Linnaeus to classify it. It is, as the fisher- man said, a rat fish. That is the popular name. — San Francisco

Self-sacking: Cows. How to break a half-blood Jersey heifer of

Bucking herself':—P. E. E., Ashevllle. N. 0. (Answered by P. E. Emery, Agriculturist, N. O-

Experiment sfauon.) We would not attempt a cure on an

animal of ordinary value. Side bars or nose contrivances will prevent the suck- ine but an ordinarv beast is not worth une uuuwe eirauieu. AX IS prooauiy one chance in ten if your heifer freed from the habit will yield enough to pay Aost of fead and riak and oar for her-

It is well known that sea water has a most beneficiar effect upon the appearance of horses, imparting a satin gloss to their coats, a bright- ness to the eye and a generally re- freshed appearance. It is no un- usual thing at Cape May and va- rious other seaside resorts to see hostlers giving the animals in their charge their sea plunge as regularly as the most systematic bather on the beach. Some New Yorkers summering in Europe sent their stables to the seashore for a fort- plaht simoly for the bathing.

J.S.JENKINS & CO. LEAF TOBACCO BROKERS

Greenville, N. C.

To-morrow the 30th is Tiiauks givinp day, aud business of course will be suspended The warehouses will be closed.

Mr. M. H. Pinnix of the firm of J. S Jenkins & Co., spent some time in Greenville last week- Mr. Pinnix is always a welcome visitor to this market

Mr. J. D. Bullock, of Oxford, has been spending some time in Greenville. Mr. Bullock is s member of the Greenville Tobacco Board of Trade and spends right much of his time on this market.

Mr. W. T- Brogden, who has been with the Greenville market from the very beginning has been offered a position with a Rich- mond firm. We very much re- gret that the old gentleman should have to leave us, but we are pleased to know that he has secured for himself a good posi- tion-

We notice that recently some right heavy shipments of tobacco have come to this market from Lenoi. Edgecombe, Wilson, Wayne, Craven and Beaufort counties- A solid car load came in Saturday from the Fremount and Kenly sections of Wilson county and others are expected soon.

from the market to get here in time to uuload by half pan ton yet after all it is very inconveni- ent for both the warehousemen and buyers to commence selling later thau that hour and the farmers will soon find that it is de- cidedly more inconvenient for them, after they have to wait a few times until 3 and 4 o'clock for their checks. This would almost invariably be the case with the warehouse haying the last sale on a large break which would of course throw the farmers at a late hour getting home, say- ing nothing abont transacting »ny business that they might wan' to while in town. It was decided that it would be the best for all parties concerned to have the hour of commencing sale at 10 --30 o'clock heuce the farmers are ask- ed to take notice of this and get to market as early as possible

We have noticed every day since this rule was decided upon that the sale has commence d at the exact hour and while nearly'every day we have had to finish unload- ing while Belling yet we notice there are fewer carts every day and it will not be long before there will be none to unload after the regular hour of commencing sale-

Couldn't Agree on All;

The case of Margaret E. Con- ley vs. the Mutual Life Insurance Company, of New York, was tried ia the United States Court at i Wilmington last week- Mrs. Conley is the widow of the man for whose murder Dan McDou-: gald was tried and acquitted! ThiB case, it will be remembered, attracted wide attention. Mc- Dougald was the nephew of Con- ley and had taken out the in- surance policy on his life- He was accused of murdering his uncle to get the insurance money, and the insurance company was instrumental in bringing him to trial, and assisted in prosecuting him. After McDougald was a quitted the company refused to pay the policy and Conley's widow brought suit. The jury gave a verdict in her favor on several points, but were unable to agree on others. The plaintiff's attor- neys wore willing to rest th« case but the defence objected, and the 8th day of January was set to argue the points upon which the jury failed to agree.
