Etteef ield Advertise! Tl'OS. J. ADAMS,.EDITO! WEDNESDAY, JUNE 16,1897. President Craighead and Profe Tompkins and Wright have re signed their positions in Clemsoi College. What can the matter be The deficit in the finances of th State will be "on" about July 1st There will be money enough, how ever, t > pay the interest on th< public debt. Owing to the long continu?e floods, a good cotton crop in Mis siesippi may now be regarded ai un impossibility, so say cottoi wiseacres. John H. Earle son of the late Senator Earle, has b"?en appointed assistant at arms of tho United Stats senate. This appointment it due largely to Senator McLaurin. Mr. Earle was his father's private secretary. John Gary Evans was ia Wash ington last Saturday and had a long interview with Tillman. He has determined to enter the race for the United States Senate as soon a's he gets home. What prom ises he received from Senator Till man are not known. There may be a good deal of vi tality in the dispensary law yet. Sinionton's decision simply lets in competition, that is all. Now whether that competition will be so sharp as to drive the State out of the liquor business or not re nnins to be seen. It is announced that Presi dent McKinley has secured a Bishop of the African Methodiet Episcopal Church to inspect and pass on the applications of all the negro applicants for office. A com bination of civil service and reli gious examination will make it rather hard for the colored brother to reach the coveted jobs. President McKinley, while alto gether moderate in his use of st .roulants-is not and never has been a teetotaler.Liquors have been included in most of his entertain ments whenever, in his judgment, common sense, etiquette and pro priety required it. but do they roquiio it? In portions of Abbeville cpunty la'fi" week there "was a~h??T storm so destructive as to ruin every thing in it J path. "Pigs, poultry aud other small animals were kill ed outright. Corn and cotton were destroyed and renters have given up their lands, as they believe it will be useless to try to make even rent off of what they can xfa/& now, Particles of hail ?ofl?d be in tho surr^^Hnng woods j^jy^^torm," so says sViiT^Medium. A Saluda paper claims that Tillman gave our people a direct primary. This is an error : In the Butler-Tillman contest Butler pieaded for a direct vote of the people from every platform in our state, but Tillman was as dumb as t. canned oyster. The Headlight editor claims a snare of the praises for our direct primaries as can be proven by the members of the plat form committee at the convention that met in Columbia the year after Tillman's election to the senate. These are cold facts and can be established.-Headlight. LYNCHING STATISTICS N. Y. World prints the statistics of lynching m the United States since January 1, 1896. It shows that there were 141 persons lynched in 1896. Of there lynchings 131 occurred in the South and 10 in the north, 86 were negroes and 55 whites. The World's list for 1897 shows that there have been 47 persons lynched so far this year. AN "ORIGINAL PACKAGE. Chief Bahr, of Charleston, spent Monday in Columbia, says the Slate. H.) went up to hold a further consultation with the Stat? authorities &bout the construction to be placed cn the term "original package.", As has been stated this is a disputed question and only a judicial decision can positively determine the question. Chief Bahr says in the meantime he would seize all liquors when a persor attempted to open a box and sell from it one or more bottler of its contents, provided those bottles did not have upon them separate government stamps. In tbat case they will not be molested According to the understanding now prevailing any number of bottles may be sold individually so long as they have separate stamps upon them. Chief Bahr states that already he has seized and damped a con siderable amount of beer in Charleston the parties attempting to sell it by the drink from kegs.

Lathan, Alexander & Co., th( great cotton experts of New York after hearing from their correa pondente in all the cotton growing States, sum up as follows : "The average condition of th< crop in Virginia 87,'North Caro lina 84, South Carolina 87, Geor gia 84, Florida 90, Alabama 81 Mississippi 76, Louisiana 84 Texas 87, Arkansas 83, Tennessee 77, Missouri 90, Indi&n Territory 85, Oklahoma 72 ; general average 83.5, against 97.2, the June condi tio of last year." . These reports show that while the condition of the crop is nearly 14 per cent, off from' last year the acreage has been increased from 22,341,000 acres in 1896 to 23,320, 000 acres in 1897, nearly one mil lion acres altogether. FROM HEADQUARTERS. The failuro of the dispensary to pay into state treasury the $92,000 for current expenses promised at the last session of the legislature will necessitate very soon the bor rowing of at lest $100,000 by State Treasurer Timraerraan. Relying upon the assurances of the dispensary board of control, the general assembly passed the supply bill on the basis of $92,000 of dispensary profits at the rafe of $10,000 a month coming to swell the treasury fund. Up to the present ho'.. : -er, nothing from this source has been received. Mr. Timm>rman to-day said in a monih'e time he will have to borrow money for the running expenses of the state. For this leceesary loan he has assurances that it may be secured at 5 per cent. The treasurer's plan to borrow only what is necessary for state expenses to November 1st, when the taxes then collected will be available. The real deficiency, however, is much greater than $100,000 and equals the govern ment's expenditures from July to January, altnough it does rut ap pear so because of using tho taxes for 1898. In view of this default io its prom.sf s it is probable the comptroller general will proceed to levy the constitution 3 mill school lax, which was not to be issued, if the dispensary supplied the funds promised. The enormous profits figured on paper fail signal ly to materialize. Original Puckaff?/ Since Judge Simonton rendered bis decision in the IjirK-us Vander srjolr CasiVthe question of supreme import has been,What are "original packages?". The preiss of the State ias been daily discussing it, but it?l no satisfactory-solution has ret Been reachedr '' The Greenville News says that Utorney General Barber went Iowa to Charleston the other day ?ra asked Judge Simonton for his lonstruction of the phrase, to vhich tha judge politely replied hat he was not then delivering pinions. The result of this nterview, or that there had been ny interview at all, between these fficials had not been published, nd it was by mere accident that News man was told of its results, t was published, however, that ie attorney general did not get ie Batisaction he sought in harleton. Mr. J. Kennedy Bryan, the ballest?n lawyer who won the andercook victory, has been in Tviewed but fruitlessly. He was ?oted as valuing his opinon on ie matter at "much more than a ousand dollars." Mr. Bryan's ?inion is naturally of value. In a letter to a client in Green lie. who ja a reporter for the News ambled over the other day, Mr, ryan gives his opinion as to e meaning of "original package," >ldinS that it is put up at the ctory, and not as it is shipped i other words, any quantity of .tiles, from half-pints up, may i shipped in one box aud after ird retailed in this State by the >ttle. He further claims, this ient says, that a foreign whiskey use may stock a warehouse with ?iskey here and sell, in original ckages, through its agent by lers. That is, the customer places ? order.with the agent, who cam micates with the company, who turn orders to be filled. And this ide of sale, it is said, does away th all license but the United ites licensj. Several prominent lawyers who re consulted upon Mr. Bryan's istruction of "original package" ?ted with him, although it is d no case has been before the preme Court to test the issue.

Ellerbe has heretofore noticed calls for investigations, but he has stated quite recently that he did not see how such an investigation would amount to anything, as it w ald be utterly impossible for the commitee of investigation to get the whiskey drumer? or dealers here unless they would come of their own accord. However much great respect he has for the o ??in ion of Buch good Ra formers, as the pe titioners, it it not likely that any investigation will be ordered. TEACHERS* ASSOCIATION. Extensive Preparations Made For Their Reception. Secretary L. W. Dick,of Aiken bas gotten cut. programme for tho twenty-sixth annual meeting of the Teachers' Association to be held it Hotel Altamont, Pars Mountain Tune 3C-July 4, 1897. Hon. W. D. Mayiield, state super ntendeut of education, is icheduled to deliver an address Fuly lst, on "Effects of Recent. JonstitutionaLJ^iou^on Educa ion in South Carolina." Dr. Pell, president of the Presby erian College for Women, will ?reach the sermon to the associa ion Sunday, July 4th, and Miss fernie Macfeat, of Columbia, will eliver a lecture on "Child tudy." There will be a concert every vening hy an excellent band. Reduced railroad rates have been ?cured. The hotel rates are lowered >r the occasion and everything ill be done to make this meeting te most enjoyable of all the eas iat ones the association has id. Hydrophobia Cure. According to the M?decine oderne, aFrench missionary in lina witnessed recently how two his terriers were bitten by a bid dog, and was very mach >rrie about it. Several Chinese io happened to be there told him at bis worry was absolutely cal'ed for, since they had an un ubtedly safe preventive again et B poison of a rabid dog t&k ; effect, and to prove the assertion e Chinamen who had been bitten March of last year by a mad g were presented to the mis nary. He found that Chinamen ; of the raw liver of the mad ; after being bitten, and if they rtake of this within a given time er the accident, it is said they I not be subject to hydrophobia, is curious that Pl imus in his tural History recommends ing the liver of a mad dog, if ten, as raw as possible, and they o could not swallow the liver r should have it cooked and nk the broth therefrom. It is positively known whether this ledy is efficacious, but it ap rs to be woithy of investigation, ticularly since this seems to be actual beginning of the cathie treatment since perfected Pasteur and Koch.
