A New Disease."Tango-foot" is the name given to

a new trouble by Dr. (\. F. Koehme,Jr., of New York. It belongs to therapidly growing class of occupationaldiseases, which are represented by"housemaid's knee" and "miner's elbow,"but in this case the specialovertaxing is due to the moderndance, especially the tango and themaxixe, which call for great exerciseof the ankle muscles. At the timeof the report, seven cases had beenseen.

BUFFALOMr. Editor: Will you please allow '

me space in your valuable paper tosay a few words in praise of one ofthe best and most home-like milltowns in the State, if not in theSouth. This magnificent mill is fourmiles west of Union, on the WestSpring road and just six miles fromthat famous and ever-flowing springwhere people come from far and nearto imbibe of the waters of that notedcrystal spring. This is a beautifuland costly structure, and one of thelargest and best equipped in thecountry. Has 63,000 spindles,» 2,001looms and consumes 70 hales a dayor about 21,000 bales annually. Itrequires about 850 operatives to runthe mill, and the weekly pay roll is$5,000. This great enterprise is underthe able supervision and management of Mr. O. F. Bennett, whocame here from Massachusetts aboutone year ago. He is a mill man ofripe experience and much ability and

. under his wise supervision many ben^eficial changes and various improvementshave been made and the millis now in a prosperous and fiourish!ing condition.
