Edgefield Advertiser WEDNESDAY, MAY 9, 1894. LOGALz BREVITIES. Mr. H. Q. Talbert, of Longraires pays that grain is not as badly damaged as was thoaght. Dean Swift said : It is useless to attempt to argue a man out of a thing he was never reasoned into. The prohibitionists are begin ning to move. The meeting is cal led for the 4th of June at New berry. Dispenser Davis has received or ders from the State board of Con trol to sleep on the dispensary premises. "Overcome evil with good," as the gentleman said when he knocked down a burglar with the family Bible. The Rev. Calvin Montgomery will preach in the Edgefield Pres byterian Church on Sunday, May 13th, at 4 P. M. The difference between per severence and obstinacy is that one often comes from a strong will and the other from a strong won't. Miss Lula Prater, daughter of Mr. D. A. Prater, of Langley, S. C., is spending sometime with Misses Mamie and Annie Covar in our town. Aiken has threo bar-rooms. Edgefield is said to have four, but they are not on the main street. They are knocking 'round loose most any where. A young stockbroker having married a stout old widow, with 500,000 pounds, said that it wasn't BO much her face that attracted him as it was the figure. The Edgefield Hussars will go to Charleston on the Edgefield Rifles excursion on the 19th inst. We hear also that the Light Dra goons will probably go, too. Columbia has passed a license ordinace which is said to be stringent. It is modelled on the dispensary s\'stem, requires saloons to open late and close early > etc. We are in receipt of au invita tion to attend the laying of the corner stone of the Winthrop Nor mal and Industrial College of South Carolina, to take place Mav 12th inst. A new game for evening parties is as follows : All the young ladies bring photographs of themselves taken when young and the young man who can identify the greatest number, receives a prize. BfctBtefcn- additio?^o the many other noteworthy features of the excur sion trip from Edgefield to Charles ton on the 19th, a goodly number of married ladies will attend as chaperons, several in each coach. There will be an Alliance picnic atMcKendiees on Saturday, May 12th. Thu surrounding Alliances and the public generally are re quested to contribute to a basket dinner, and the general public is invited to attend, The crowd will be entertained by sneaking. Do you wish a scholarship in the Peabodv Normalat Nashville? If so, write"W. D. Mayfield, State Superintendent Education Colum bia, S. C., and tell him, so that preparation will be made for you. The examination will be held afc Co lumbia, about the 20th of July. Daniel Webster once said: "I well remember a marked difference tween those of my schoolmates who had and had not access to papers. Other things being equal, the first were always superior to the lat ter in debate composition and general intelligence. One trachers do a graet work in circuiatingjthe printed pages among their patrons. Mr. Purvis J. Boatwright, of Darlington, was in town last week. He is an Edgefield man by birth, and is now travelling in this county to introduce a patent gin rib, a most wonderful invention which almost does away with the danger of fire, and as a consequence will reduce fire insurance to a minimuu cost. The Aiken Times says: If it - were nol for stepping over five drunk men, crawling through tb.3 legs of seventeen colored gentle men, knocking down thirteen bot tle-suckers to get a chance at the bar, smelling the breath of so many fellow citizens in the same glass and hearing the delicate ex pression of our sonorous neighbers we would invite you in to take a drink." The Grr en ville News says that "police and county officers report that there has been less crime this week than auk they can remember ; this too in spite of the fact that blind tigers have been in full blast all the week. This is an adroit way our comtenporary has of proving the drunker people get on liquors other than dispensary the gooder they (the people) get. Kousin Jeems in the last Cotton Plant gives the following recipe for making picknick supe." "Taik a paleful uv fresh wat ur and wash it clean ; then bile it til it is brown on both sides; pour in wun bean ; when the bean begins tu worry, prepare it fu sirumur. If the supe wil not simmur, it is tu rich and must pour in more water. Dry now the water well with a towel before you put it in. The drver the water the sooner it will brown. Serve either hot or cold ; season with v patt. Mrs. Lucy E. Norris, well ku in this comunity, has been pointed postmis'ress at Aiken. The Aiken Baptist Sun school will picnic at Edgefield next Saturday. So says the Ai papers. When you come to town dro the ADVERTISER office and give any item of news you may hi We will appreciate it. Clerk of the Court John B. ] begs us to say to Edgefield cou pensioners that their money is his hands ready for distributio: The Old Hickory Wagons, compaiable forever, still take lead everywhere. Ramsey & Bb can supply ynu and scud you he happy. County Treasurer Steveus received instructions from Coi troller General Ellerb not to ceive any license money for sale of liquor until furt instructed. When he visited the cemete Mike Donovan noticed on a tor stone the following inscriptk "Sacred to the memory of a law, and honest man." "By the pow? said Mike, ''thats a strange oust to bury two men iu one grave." Our young friend Mr. A. Morgan is off on a trip to Narasc Texas. This is on the Bra: river where the lands are the rich in the state. He has partia promised to send in a letter : the readers of the old ADVERT?S] Whole Family Poisoned. Seven negroes, an entire fami were poisoned near Richarsonvi in this county last Tuesday. Th weretaken violently illimmediatc after breakfast and vomit incesantly until death came their relief. No clue as yet to t guilty parties. Y. M. C. A. Officers. Ar the annual election of office for the next twelve months, o local Y. M. C. A. has selected f President, E. J. Mims ; Vice-Prei dents, M. Timmons and T. B. La ham; Secretary, Geo. F. M im Treasurer, W. H. Dorn. We co grat?late the Association upon happy a choice. Dr. Butler's Lecture. On Friday evening last our ho ored townsman, Dr. F. W. P. Bu 1er, gave another of his excelle: series of "health talks" before tl Y. M. C. A. Training-School bo; and their friends. This depar ment of the instruction thus fu nished the young men will doub less accomplish much lasting gooi Tests of Democracy. Edgefield county has two tes: for the two kinds of democral now hustling within her territor First, the jimmy-john democn is one who can get the neck of jimmy-john over his standing u collar, and into his mouth and nc waste a drop. The other kine the spi t-over-y our-col 1 ar-democral is one who can stand flat-foote and spit clear over his sitting down collar and not get a drop i: his eyes ; and we're only remem beied by what we have done. Edgefield Hussars. The annual election of the Edge field Hussars held on last Satur day resulted as follows: Captain S. B. Mays ; 1st Lieut., L. R. Brun son ; 2nd, H. L. Bunch ; 3rd, J. M Mays; Ensign, J. F. Atkins; ls Orderly Sergt., J. P. Sullivan 2nd Sergt., P. F. Ryan ; 3rd, W. A Collett; 4th, J.M. W.Glover; 5th T. N. Timmermau; 6th, D. ?W McClendon; 7th, W. H. Ryan There were several accessions b the roll. The company now num hers thirty-nine. The compan; will go to Charleston on the excur sion on the 19th inst. The 18tl day of July was selected as th date of the annual picnic. Afte a barbecue dinner, the compam adjourned to meet on the 4th o July. A Correction. In our last issue the official re port of the organization of tb< Meriwether Democratic club hac thc following as the words of th* person moving to retire and orgau ize a separate club : "All who wist to form an independent Demo eratic club follow me." This wat not the exact phraseology used and Mr. P. B. Lanham, presidenl of the original club, asks us tc say so. He says that there was nr intention to stigmatize the retiring members as independents excepl in the sense that they propoeed tc organize a club of their own, sepa rate distinct and independent ol j the old club, not independent of Democracy. Mr. Lanham says he wants the record to be made righi first, and then let the fight proceed and d-d be he who first cries hold enough, or words to that effect. Seventeen-Year Locusts. The 17-year locusts have made their appearanee in various sec tions of Edgefield county. Sup posing we had never seen one, Mr, E. W. Dowty, of Choty, brought ue one for examination, to see if there was any politics in'em oronVm. Mr. Dowty claims that the Choty locusts have two big T's on their wings. He thinks these T's stand for Tillman and Tplbert. On the other hand, Mat Bigham, of the same section, says these locusts have two big W's, one on each wing and that they mean waiting for tear. He says these birds are descendants from ihosame species that "done Dp" old Pharaoh when he had the Children of Israel in the nine hole, and that a keen eared listener can hear them sing this song-the self-same which they sung to the hard-headed, hard hearted, stiff-necked king of Egypt thousands of years ago : Pharaoh i Oh, Pharaoh ' I want you to let my people go! Pray to the Lord-and never turn back, I want you to let my people gol Dr. R. C. Flower in Augusta, Ga. This distinguished physician of Boston, Mass., whose cures have made him the wonder and marve] of the age, will be in Augusta al the Arlington Hotel on Monday and Tuesday, the 14th and 15th of May inst. Dr. Flower's services are in such demand that he travels nearly all the time, almost from the Isthmus of Panama to the Gulf of St. Law rance, but visits only the larger cities. His time is of course too valuable to be squandered, and if auy of our readers need his serP vices they must be prompt at the hotel named and on the dates named above. A Texas paper after giving two columns of testimonials from prominent people of that State as to Dr. Flower's wonderful cures, speaks as follows: "These are a few testimonials from patients cured by Dr. R. C. Flower when given up by the medical profession to die. They are mostly prominent men and women well known in their communities aud generally throughout the State. They stand as a wall of witnesses all voicing the same sentiment 'that if it had not been for Dr. R. C. Flower we would have been in our graves.' A patient of Dr. Flower's told me of a little work written by the doctor, entitled, 'Science of Health.' It gives a de scription of Dr. Flower's life and work-numeJons articles on health and several of his lectures. One woman said her sister was cured of a nerve trouble by reading the book. "Anyone sending two 2c. stamps to the Flower Medical Company, 559 Columbus avenue, Boston Mass., will receive, postage paid this valuable work. "Two things ars demonstrated ; first, that Dr. R. C. Flower pos sesses almost a supernatural gift in the examination of diseases ; and, second that he isa most re markable healer in desperate or bad cases. With all the evidence gathered it would seem that there is but little excuse for the sick to suffer and die of bad chronic diseases when Dr. Flower can be reached. [For the ADVERTISER. A Pleasant and Newsy Letter from "Bud"-"Saluda Volun teers" the Name of a New Company-A Severe Hail Storm. DEAR ADVERTISER : This vicinity was visited last Saturday after noon with a severe hail storm, ac companied by considerable wind, and some damage to the grow ing grain, it is feared has been in curred. In some places fences were blown down. An out-house on Dr. Mose Walton's farm was upset. The Couuty Interdenominational S. S. Convention which convened at Trinity Lutheran Church on 3rd and 4th inst, was in every re spect a success. The queries dis cussed were appropriate, the speeches pointed, the host attend ing very attentive. The next county convention will be held at Emory (Methodist) Church in May next. Picnics and fishing parties are as rife as the organization of mili tary companies is popular. "Saluda Volunteers" ie the name of a crack company recently or ganized on our side. The members, forty-odd in number, are highly enthusiastic and are fairly "itch ing" to get hold of that disgraced Newberry company's arms, Gen. Butler, "Catiline" Haskell, and "X" Gov. Richardson to the con trary notwithstanding. Saluda Volunteers 1 A name to make blind tigers quake, And Dispensary looters to fear. Violators of law tremble with awe. Upholders of peace and order are here But in all seriousness we hope Gov. Tillman and Adjutant and Inspector General Farley will give our organization due consideration since our Saluda conntry has never, although several attempts have already been made in that direc tion, been honored with anything of this kind. Miss Bessie Long, of Newberry, is visiting her relatives Dr. and Mrs. M. P. Walton. We heartily endorse the Mt. Willing resolution presenting the name of Mr. B. L. Caughman to the consideration of the Edgefield voters as a man in every way fitted to succeed our Saluda representa tive Hon. J. B. Suddath in our State Legislature. More anon. BUD. Butler, S. C.

EDITOR: Our family has been taking your valuable paper for several years, and as I have not seen anything from Hibler in some time I thought I would tell you about how things are getting on. We are having lovely weather just now and expect we will need rain before we get it. The grain cropR are sorry, fruit crops a failure, with the exception of a few apples and blackberries. Gardens are nothing to brag on. Corn and cotton is coming up and looking very well. There have been two club meet ings in Hibler. One was Tillman ites and the other-I think they call it pluttercrats. Some of the girls say they want Mr. F. V. Drennan to run for the Legislature. He says he would like to go long enough to repeal the lien law, do away with the homestead, and establish a cash system. I think he was in the no tion to run but has declined the idea since he heard that Mr. T. S. Henderson was going to run-and nearly every one says he will get the o?ice. Mr. Drennan says he is going to stay at home and at tend to his turkeys and go to see Miss Faunie. Mr. T. E. Minor is still keeping store in this neighborhood. He bas just received a car load of spring and summer goods from New York, so I hear. H. M. Hibler, S. C. [For the ADVERTISER. Mine Creek News. MR. EDITOR : Owing to the cold snap in March, and the present dry weather, the oat crop is almost a failure, but the wheat is looking pretty well. Some of the farmers say if flour stays cheap they are going to feed their wheat to their horses and buy flour. Last Saturday while Mr. L. C. PariHth was on his way to Bates burg, he caught up with a negro whowa8 driving a lumber wagon, and asked him to let him pass as he was in a hurry. The negro gave him no answer, and when they got to avide place in the road Mr. Parish tried to pass by the negro, but the negro pulled his mules to the middle of the road, audwould not let him pass. Then Mr. Parish told the negro if he did not get out of the wa}' and let him ?.pass he would take his buggy-whip and wear him out, and the negro told him "it was time to get at it." Then Mr. Parish jumped out of his buggy and started toward the negro. The negro drew a scantling on Mr. Parish, and Mr. Parish hesitated no longer to driw his revolver, and buried a ball in the negro's chest just above his heart, which will perhaps prove fatal. Our young friend Mr. T. L. Story who taught school in the Good Hope section last winter, is now at home engaged in the farming busi ness. He seems to be fascinated by one of the fair sex. He says in case a tornado should come along and toss him safe into the jung:es of Africa, he would then have tho audacity to battle his way back through that savage country amidst the gorrillas and elephants, throw himself into the Atlantic and swim back to once more kiss her loving lips. Prof. C. L. Temples says he is going to be slow to vote for any candidate in the next campaign who has not performed his duties well heretofore. The Rev. F. A. Schmidt, of Aiken, held services in St. John Catholic Church last Sunday. Mr. Willis Rodgers, who has been ver}' ill for some time, is slowly on the mend. There is a negro in this com munity with his gun hunting an other negro who stole his Sunday shoes and hat not long since. He says if he can't got him now he thinks he can get him at some of the big meetings this summer. P. J. Mine Creek, S. C. [For the ADVERTISER. Close of Mrs. Walker's School. Mu. EDITOR: Mrs. Mamie Walker's school at this place closed April 13, 1894. The morning was spent in examining the pupils, and each and every one stood a splendid examination. The evening exer cises consisted of reading, speak ing, dialogues, and spelling. Thn latter seemed to be the decisive bat? le, and never did a school do better. The school then marched to the church where a bountiful linner was spread, and all were in vited to thc feast. I forgot to tell you of little Eddie Walker, the teachers' son, who is only four years old; he, too, made a splendid speech for one of his age. After dinner all marched into the church. Mrs.Mamie Walker pre sided at the organ and played sev eral beautiful pieces all the school joining in the singing. They thei returned to the school house when Mr. G. M. Dorn rendered sweel music on his violin. The prizes were won by Susie Thurmond, Mamie Prince, Eugen? Thurmond, and Jimmie Reardon Mr. Editor, I never have seen s school better controlled. All the scholars love and obeytneir teach er, evfin the grown boys were the most obedient, seeming to idolize their teacher. The parting was the saddest part of the day. I will say in conclusion that any community that can obtain thc services of Mrs. Mamie Walkei will be fortunate indeed. Now a word +o politics and I am done: N. G.Evans, Esq., for the Legislature; W. J. Talbert, foi Congress; B. R. Tillman for the Uuited States Senate, and John Gary Evans for Governor, will make a four-horse team that will pulled the farmer home. CHOTA. Faifa, S. C. [For the ADVERTISER. A Dissenting Voice from Meri wether. MR. EDITOR: In your issue of May 2nd Mr. Lanham or Mr. Bunch whoever made the report, does an injustice to a good man and demo crat. I allude to what he says as to the men who formed the new club. He says tho one opposing the erasement said : "All who wish to form an independent Demo cratic club follow me." That ie not true. The gentlemen said: "All those who wish to form a pure and true Democratic club come this way." Now, Mr. Editor, it might be pertinent to enquire what called forth that remark. Some of the men who helped to oiganize the Tillman club, openly and without any sort of reserva tion proclaim themselves Third party men, and, by the way, these men are neighbors and friends of Gov. Tillman,' so you will see at once why the man said "Demo cratic" club. Another question I would like to ask : Will these men who voted for Weaver in '92 call themselves Third party men or Democrats, and have they taken part in the re-organization of the Democratic clubs throughout the county? It would be well I think to under stand all these things. I wish it distinctly understood that I do not censure or pass judgment on any one for being a Third party man; that is their righj^and these gentlemen in Meri wothei are good men and citizens, I know many in Georgia who are good men and for Tom Watson who are good men, I only call your, attention to what seems to rae a curious fact, Third party men help ing to re-organize Democratic clubs. MERIWETHER DEMOCRAT. [For tlie ADVERTISER. Cold Spring News. MR. EDITOR : The war in Dar lington is over, the dispensary is closed, but the dry spell is still holdiDg forth, rapidly destroying what wheat and oats the freeze did not kill. Our garden "sas" too won't grow like it used to do-it may be "unconstitutional." Red Hill club from a misunder standing failed to muster a quorum at the appointed time for re-organ ization, consequently the re-organ ization was deferred until the 19th inst., at 2 P. M., the old officers holding over. Delegates were elected to represent the club at the county meeting on the 7th inst. "Is it unconstitutional?" Politics seem to be at avery low ebb around Red Hill and one rarely hears any mention of politics ex cept to hear what "Jas" has done. "Ain't he giving them pension robbers thunder?" He has done a sight more good than all the rest put together. No chance for any body else to butt agin Jas this time no how. Them that didn't vote forhim last time is obliged to do it this time. You might gather from the above remarks that the s'and in Congress taken by Hon. W. J. Talbert meets with the full and unanimous endorsement of his neighbors, friends, and those who know him best. The time for planting- cotton seed is drawing near the close and every man has put in his usual "crap" and hopes to get a big price next "fall. What a groat blessing is "Hope?" Hope renews our energies and spurs on to greater exertions and at the end of the year sets us back a little farther thau the starting point, and gent? *' but kindly whispers "Hope! Hope!" The times may change next year. Hope is a blessing, but hoping against ones better judgment is a hope in the dark. Rev. G. W. Busscy has set apart next third Sunday at Red Hill Church to give the collections to the Connie Maxwell Orphanage. The young ladies of the church promptly coming to the aid of their pastor will give an appro I ria'e entertainment to further the ends of a good cause., and make the timejpleasant as well as profit able. The programme will consist of select music, mottoes, recita tions, etc. A rare treat for the fortunate visitor. More anon. RADCLIFF.

There was never a time in the his tory of our count ry when the demand for inventions and improvements in the arts and sciences generally was so great as now. The conveniences of mankind in the factory and work shop, the household, on t he farm, and in official life, require continual ac cessions to the appurtenances and implements of each in order to save laber, time, and expense. The political change in the administration of the government does not affect the progress of the American inventor, wi o being on the alert' and ready to perceive the existing deficiencies, does not permit the affairs of government to deter him from quickly conceiving the remedy to overcome existing discrepencies. Too great care cannot be exercised in choos nga competent and skillfully attor ney to prepare and prosecute an ap plication for patent. Valuable intersts have been lost and destroyed in in numerable instances by the employ ment of incompetent counsel, and especially is this advice applicable to those who adopt the "No patent, no pay" system. Inventors who entrust their business to this class of attorneys do so at imminent risk, as the breadth and strength of the patent is never considered in view of a quick endeavor to get an allowance and obtain thc fee then due. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY, John Wedderburn, General Manager, GIS F street, N. W., Wash ington, D.
