^tumorous department. Human Alarm Clock. At 1 o'clock the other morning:, a well-dressed man strolled into one of the uptown messenger offices. He had been dining out and evidently, from the rakish tilt of his opera hat, the dinner had been a success. "I want a messenger boy to come ( and wake me up in the morning." "What hour?" The clerk was all business, for the request was not unusual. "Seven o'clock, I've got to catch a ( train," he explained. "All rigni, sir; i ociock, assureu the clerk. The man turned as he was going out of the door. "Have the boy hammer at the door hard," he cautioned "I'm a 'dead one' when I get to sleep, and I've got to catch that train." Then he went home and went to sleep with absolute confidence. The whistles were blowing 7 o'clock. A small boy in uniform hammered with a club, his wakener, on the door of the man who had dined the night before, "Get up in there!" he cried. "Get up, you old sleepyheaded!" "You go away from my door," comes in sleepy tones from the room. "It's a mistake. I don't want to get up." "Oh, yes, you do, my dodo bird," is the fresh reply. And the tattoo on the door goes on with redoubled strength. "All right, boy; I'm awake now!" howles the man who has been sleeping. "You can go away now." "Not till you've signed this receipt," the boy insists. The man had to crawl out of bed and comii to the door. The bov has a DaDer ready, and as he is a careful man he reads before signing. It certifies that he has been thoroughly wakened by Messenger No. 482 and that he is not going back to bed again that day. "Is this a joke?" asked the boy. "Naw, 'tain't no joke, replied the messenger through his teeth. If we'se didn't make you'se do this, you'd be down to the office about noon a-howlin' dat we didn't wake you'se. Now, if you'se goes back to your bag of feathers. we'se got you'n in black an' white an' no mistake."?New York Tribune. "A Reg'lar Bird."?If Ernest SetonThompson chose he could write a book on his lecturing adventures that might prove as interesting, though in a very different way, as his "Lives of the Hunted." The other evening he was stopped at the theatre door by half a dozen boys, one of whom said: "Say, Mister, are you de jay dat talks about de animals?" "Yes." "Well, say, won't ye give us a pass?" "How many are there of you?" "Only 11," (others now appearing.) Mr. Seton-Thompson called his manager, and said: "Pass these 11 boys." i "Then, s 18 now," said the spokesman. "All right, pass 18." said the man of the beasts, for he never sends a child away if he can help it. During the hour and a half lecture he had no more appreciative hearers than these 18 newsboys. After it was over he steppeu out the back way and here were the 18 awaiting as before.

It is said that he was recently in conversation with a man who knew little of the metropolis. "To what do you ascribe New York's greatness?" the former mayor was asked. "To push," laconically responded Mr. Hewitt. 'But your city has been greatly favored. You will admit that?" "Only in giving birth to citizens who are resourceful and energetic, and in the ability to always attract men of the same stamp from other places." "tiut haven't the natural advantages of New xork much to do with the city's progress?" "Sir," replied Mr. Hewitt, closing the conversation. "Nature would make grass grow on Broadway if we didn't interfere." XT Mr. Broughton, the English artist, while sketching in the Alps, was one day in search of a suitable back ground of dark pines for a picture he had planned. He found at last the precise situation he was seeking, and, best of all, there happened to be a pretty detail in the figure of an old woman in the foreground. "I asked the old lady," said Mr. Broughton, "to remain seated until I had made a sketch of her. She assented, but in a few minutes asked me how long I should be. 'Only about a quarter of an hour,' I answered, reassuringly. "Three minutes or so later she again asked me?this time with manifest anxiety?if I should be much longer. " 'Oh, not long,' I answered. 'But why do you ask so anxiously?' " Oh, it's nothing,' she sadly answered, 'only I'm sitting on an ant hill.'" ?? ? *'' A story is told of a canny Scot who dealt in old horses, alternating : his spells of labor with heavy sprees.

Rock Hill Herald, April 12: John Rogers and Henry McGulrtt are white tenants on the farm of Mr. R. H. Cornwell. Tuesday afternoon, while they were at work in a field, they became Involved in a war of words about some wood, when Rogers struck McGuirtt on one side of his head with a hoe, injuring the skull and completely scalping him, the wound extending from the crown of his head to his ear and in front to his eye. He was attended by Dr. P. L. Cornwell, who dressed the wound, taking 30-odd stitches in the torn scalp. McGuirtt is seriously hurt, and his recovery is doubtful. Rogers was arrested and brought to Rock Hill. Thursday he was committed to jail to await the result of McGuirtt's Injuries Joe Hart, colored, was before Magistrate Beckham a few days ago on the charge of "transporting contraband whisky." He was found guilty and sentenced to pay a fine of $100 or serve 30 days on the chaingang. He appealed to a higher court and was released on a $200 bond Dr. C. M. Kuykendal, wife and children went to Yorkvllle Wednesday afternoon While the Ann White Chapter U. D. C. of this city j has made no formal preparation for the observance of Memorial Day, the programme is understood to be as follows: Friday, May 9th, has been selected as the date, as that day will suit the business men generally better than Saturday. The graves of the veteran dead in Laurelwood cemetery will be decorated in the afternoon at 4 o'clock, and it is probable that there may then be an oration by some one who has not yet been selected; but it is altogether likely that any speeches that are to be made will be heard in Friedheim's hall that night, when there will be a gathering of veterans with the U. D. C. and the public generally, the intention of the U. D. C being to nresent the veterans with crosses of honor, the presentation being accompanied with appropriate ceremonies. This will be followed by a supper which will be given by the Ann White Chapter U. D. C. complimentary to the veterans and for the veterans only. Details will be arranged and published later on. Monday, May 12th, will be observed at Ebenezer, instead of the 10th, the change being likewise made for the convenience of our business men. The S. D. Barron Chapter U. D. C. are preparing for a big success on that occasion. They have extended an invitation to Colonel Hamilton Jones, of Charlotte, to deliver the address on the part of the veterans, and Mr. P. D. Barron has accepted their invitation to deliver the junior address From the Chester Lantern we take this interesting Item: There was general failure of crops all over this section last year, and yet there were some farmers in almost every neighborhood that made fair to good crops. One of the best we have heard of, when we consider the size of the farm, was on the plantation of our townsman, Mr. S. M. Jones, superintended by Mr. R. J. Huey. The place is in York county, not far from Tirzah and Rock Hill. The land is largely of the blackjack type, and so not the most suitable for such a season as that of last year; but Mr. Huey is a pusher and made the very best of the season. Mr. Jones had made on this farm?the land is in two tracts we believe?122 bales of cotton with 13 plows, more than 10 bales to the plow all around. He sold the whole lot a few days ago at 9 cents a pound, the proceeds amounting in round numbers, to $5,000?something over that we believe. He sold 3,100 bushels of cotton seed for $700, more than enough to pay for the 35 tons of commercial fertilizer used. Mr. Jones's farm was not run on the all-cotton plan, as 1,000 bushels of corn were made. 100 bushels of which have been shipped here to the store for seed and it is going at $2 a bushel. We have a report of only the cotton and corn, as we did not think to ask Mr. Jones about other products. Mr. Huey's success is largely due to his always being ready to take advantage of a season when it comes, and then pushing the work early and late. Lazy Negroes will not stay on the place with Mr. Huey, where "work or leave," is the pass-word. By the way every hand on Mr. Jones's farm paid out last year and had something left over. CHESTER. Lantern, April li: Rev. T. C. Faley, of Feasterville, was in to see us yesterday. He says that it takes frost to kill the fruit crop and not ice. Hence, owing to the wind of Tuesday night, it is his impression that the fruit crop has not been injured so far The Springstein Mills company have been doing much work recently in the way of erecting new houses for the operatives. From the ashes of the house which was burnt on Depot street is now rapidly rising a commodious sixteen room building On Wednesday, Policeman Johnson chanced upon a Negro woman who had been partaking too freely of beverages, and she had almost lost her senses, though she was giving offense to none. It was thought that the best place for her would be in tne locKup unm sne wouia souer up u little, and then she would again be set at liberty. Dust and other particles had accumulated in her new quarters, through the use of many weeks, and the cots were sadly in need of some accustomed hand to render them comfortable to whoever may realize his lot to occupy the same. So feeling that this probably was her mission she, immediately after her admission thereto, went to work and gave the old guardhouse such a cleaning up in general, the like of which it has not known in tnany a day, and the cots also bore evidence of her creditable undertaking. After her task was finished she sent word to the policeman that she was ready to come out now, and no doubt It was with pleasure that he allowed her again to breath in the open air.... fhe train bearing President Roosevelt and party rolled up to the depot on schedule time (7.15) yesterday afternoon. It seemed that the whole of Chester had turned out to do honor to the president. When the train came to a standstill, President Roosevelt appeared on the rear platform and bowed his acknowledgement to the enthusiastic crowd. There was a rush to hear wfmt the nresident would say. After all had gotten as near as possible, and when he beckoned his hand for silence, he said that he wanted to thank the people of the Carollnas for the cordial reception given him, that he was delighted with his trip and the beautiful exposition at Charleston, and that "I will go back to my office at Washington a better American than I was when I left, and I was a pretty good one before I left." "While I remain," he said, "the chief executive of the nation, equal justice shall be administered to all." Mr. Roosevelt appeared in the best humor and laughed heartily at remarks made in the crowd. He said he wanted to present Mrs. Roosevelt, and as they stood side by side a?deafening roar was sent up by the crowd. This, he said, he appreciated more than the reception given him. The president said he would not try to shake hands as there would be a general walk-over with respect to the larger ones. Mrs. Roosevelt smiled that winning smile, and waved her hand in response to the applause which greeted her. Just as the train was about to move off Mr. Roosevelt said to the | throng, which had gotten worked up to a high pitch of enthusiasm, Again I thank you for your hearty reception, and I wish you good luck." The train remained at the depot about 10 minutes, and many of us had the opportunity of hearing the living voice of a president and beholding him for the first time. The crowd was a representative one, old, young, black and white. Mr. Roosevelt spoke with great distinctness and as if he were in dead earnest, meaning every word he said, and we doubt not that conviction followed each utterance. GASTON. Gastonia Gazette, April 11: The Loray is spinning 35 bales of cotton a day. Mr. Meek Adams says It keeps him hustling to keep the cotton weighed and graded and kept in place for the big mill. The new cards came a day or two ago and when they go into place and complete the installation of the first half of the machinery, the daily capacity of the mill will be raised to 40 bales. "Why," exclaimed Mr. Adams, "a carload of cotton is no more to the Loray than a plate of biscuit to a dozen hungry niggers." Mr. L. R. Hagood, whose hens, according to an item copied from the King's Mountain Democrat, were making an unusual record as layers, Informs us that they not only lay good but lay better. He says the records for his 24 hens this year up to and including April 5th was 933 eggs?almost an average of 10 eggs a day for 95 days The first death from smallpox at the county pest house occurred yesterday morning. It was the case of John Rice, a Negro man who had been at the pest house for sometime. He was buried in the county graveyard. A fresh colony of nine Negroes were carried to the pest house yesterday morning, making 30 in all The board of aldermen, at their meeting last Monday night, arranged the municipal budget for 1902. The following tax levy was made: For schools, 20 cents, against 30 cents last year; interest on bonds, 40 cents, against 45 cents last year; general expenses, 50 cents, against 90 cents last year?a reduction of 33 1-3 per cent, in the total tax rate of last year. The school account has about $800 surplus, the other account will run about even with the receipts. The town charter, we believe, requires that the tax levy be made in April A wrecking train passed through on the Southern yesterday morning at 8.30 o'clock on its way to Duncan's, S. C., to clear the track of a small freight wreck near that point Mr. E. W. Carson, who doesn't set himself up as an extra good farmer, but is one just the same, had a crop of cotton that greatly interested his neighbors. On one patch measuring 107 yards long by 71 yards wide, clear of ditches, he kept a record and the result shows that for last year the yield was nothing to complain of. The cotton from this patch was brought to the Gastonia Oil Mill a week or two ago. and when the ginning was over 1,089 pounds of clear lint cotton was shown to be the yield from this patch of a little over 11 acres. This is a record of 693 pounds of lint to the acre?very good indeed Mrs. O. W. Davis received a telegram late yesterday afternoon from Atlanta, announcing that her husband, Mr. Oliver Davis, was worse and summoning her to come at once to his bedside. Dr. H. F. Glenn talked with Mr. Davis's physicians about 7 o'clock last night, and from them he learned that the patient's condition was serious. Mrs. Davis and Messrs. Neill and Love Davis left on No. 35 last night for Atlanta. As previously noted in these columns, Mr. Davis went to Atlanta several weeks ago and underwent an operation for a bone cancer on his left leg. The operation was successfully performed and the patient was considered safely on the road to recovery. His many friends will be pained to hear of this (sudden turn for the worse in his con dition. _ One of the constituents of Judge Culberson, the father of the present senator from Texas, had wagered that he could get a definite and decided opinion from the old man, a proposition so unlikely that it created no little excitement in the Texas town in which the judge resided. It had been stipulated that the bet should be decided in front of a livery stable, where Judge Culberson liked to spend some of his leisure hours. A crowd collected, and as they discussed the state of the weather and the condition of the crops a newly sheared flock of sheep was driven by. "Judge," said the man who had made ; the wager, "those sheep have been sheared, haven't they?" 1 "It looks like it, on this side," replied the judge. < X'~>' Whenever we hear a man making I a disparaging insinuation in regard to his mother-in-law we always feel like saying to him, "Sir, you never would have been anywhere if your father had never had a mother-in-law." 1 ROOSEVELT AND CHARLESTON. Expert'* View ot the Imprennlon* Mnde by the President. A staff correspondent of the Washington Post, who accompanied the president to Charleston, sent his paper the following letter under date of April 8: President Roosevelt has captured Charleston and Charleston has captured the president. Nothing could be more genuine, spontaneous, and universal than the cordial welcome which has been accorded him today. The only danger which he invites'by coming to this quaint and beautiful southern city was the danger of being killed by kindness. He went to bed tonight a tired but thoroughly happy man. From early morning, when a committee welcomed him at Summerville, 22 miles from Charleston, until midnight, when he left U** knnnnof mnm omM enthusiastic llic uaii?{u^L i win aiiiivi w..... ? ? _ cheers, he was literally; In the hands of his friends. They couldn't do too much for him. "We wanted to show," said Governor McSweeney to me tonight, "That Charleston wanted the president, and that we would give him a patriotic and cordial welcome. If we have succeeded we ask no more." Roue to the Occasion. There can be no doubt that the Charleston people have succeeded. Their hurrahs are still ringing in the ears of the president, who has literally bubbled over all day long with his enthusiasm at the warmth of the greeting extended to him. He is a most unconventional president. This very absence of formality, this hearty and unrestrained participation In every detail of the programme arranged for his entertainment, the total absence of reserve and official frigidity won all of the hearts of his hosts. They knew that he was of different mould than McKInley. But If the truth be told they expected that he would go to the other extreme. They rather anticipated that he would move Impulsively according to his own free will; on the contrary he was most compliant. He followed where they led. Every feature of the elaborate programme was accepted by him with such instantaneous good will and with such evident enjoyment that the hearts of the hardworking committeemen went out to him as one of their own kin. "I have been simply delighted with everv moment of the day," said the president to Mayor Smyth as he left the revenue cutter Algonquin late this afternoon, after several hours spent upon the waters of the picturesque harbor, and the remark left no doubt of his sincerity. "I really be lieve the president has enjoyed himself," said Mayor Smyth. Mont Democratic of PrcMidentN. Yet the president, it is worth repeating, was most unconventional. He was more democratic In the real sense of the word than any president of recent years. "I am the last man in the world to be bound by etiquette," he remarked with good natured frankness when a mistake had been made in the order of precedence. Never, of course, did he overstep the line which divides dignity from sociability and yet he was always Roosevelt. He couldn't be anything else if he tried, and it is quite evident that he does not profiose to try. He is himself always. When his hat blew oft while he was standing at the parapet of Fort Sumter, he at once started to run after it with almost boyish freedom, and when it was finally caught by a smutty workman from the blacksmith's shop, he grasped the man's hand and thanked him with such earnestness and warmth that the man was overwhelmed. Until his dying day that workman will remember that the president of the United States treated him like a brother. When the president was greeted at Summerville by the reception committee, headed by Mayor J. Adger Smyth and Col. John C. Hemphill, he greeted them with a speech so cordial in its nature that the committeemen were enthusiastically repeating it all day long. When he was marched over the beauti ful roads of Chicora park, which is to be the site of the naval station, he went into rapture over the panorama that unfolded itself before him, and praised the beauty of the live oaks, festooned with Spanish moss in fervent expressions which manifested his keen love of nature. The myriad of sandflies which annoyed everybody else while awaiting the arrival of the Algonquin, merely elicited from him a reminiscence of hunting trips in the Adirondacks, where the midgets were more or less troublesome, Upon the boat the stiff breeze from the west made his silk hat a burden. He at once borrowed from Colonel Hemphill a crush hat of soft wool, pulled it down upon his head, and was perfectly content. For half an hour, while he chatted with Judge Simonton and Judge Brawley, he sat upon the skylight on the quarterdeck, disdaining a chair, with head uncovered and the wind playing havoc with his hair. Once, when the lace of Mrs. Roosevelt's shoe became untied, he was on bended knee in an instant, fastening the unruly string. In all of these things he was Roosevelt the man. and there is no gainsaying the fact that they won the hearts of the people around him. The total lack of affectation and the everpresent genuineness of his nature were so marked as to be a revelation even to those who know how these qualities predominate in him. Tolerated Camera Klendx. Picture-takers were, of course, everywhere. He entered heartily into their work. He posed by the side of Governor McSweeney, and when the buttons of three cameras were pressed in succession, with audible clearness, he exclaimed: "Three times and out," as if he were an umpire on the baseball field. Hp mvp Mninr ATinnVi .Tpnkins a wel come that a prince might have envied, and introduced him to everybody within arm's reach, with eulogies of the major's bravery. At Fort Sumter, where the big disappearing guns were operated for the president's edification, he asked innumerable questions of the young artillery lieutenant in charge. The officer, perceptibly embarrassed by the immediate presence of the president of the United States, stood at attention, both arms hanging close beside his body. When the president had learned all that there was to learn about the gun, he reached out and shook hands with the lieutenant in the most friendly fashion, at the same time thanking him heartily for his clear and intelligent answers. The happy officer walked away more erect than ever. It was while standing by this same gun that the president showed his quickness at repartee. "Mr. President," said Colonel Hemphill, "we wish that you were the mayor of Charleston." "But there is no vacancy," immediately replied the president, glancing at Mayor Smyth. "Mr. President," interrupted the mayor, "I will resign in your favor." "I will take your job if you will take mine," retorted the president so quickly that the mayor didn't have another word to say. All these Incidents I have related, and which are only a few that I recall in a day crowded with like episodes, may 1 AnAiirrVi nnd VQf I f T hflVA OCCIII IMViUI ^llUUbil, UliU JW .a. ...... used them as an artist lays strokes upon the canvass with his brush, I have painted a picture of the president. It is a picture which is unique because Roosevelt is like unto no other president. His frank, open-hearted and even impulsive disposition, his determination to obtain the heartiest enjoyment out of every moment of existence, his utmost abandon when among his friends, uis earnestness and enthusiasm, make him an interesting study. His personality dominates everything, and certainly during the day which he has spent in Charleston this personality has been revealed in a striking fashion. Certain it is also that this personality of such a pronounced American type, seems to find favor with the common people. RooNevelt'* Ilnnqnet Speech. It was this trait of Americanism which the president emphasized in his speech at the banquet tonight. He evoked applause when he addressed the throng around the handsomely decorated tables as "My fellow Americans," and when he added that he would indeed be a poor American if he failed to appreciate the warmth of the welcome accorded him, there was prolonged applause. "Of course, I feel at home here," he exclaimed, "any American who is worth his salt has the right to feel at home in any part of the United States." He spoke of the war with Spain as showing "how thoroughly as one we were," because, he added, "when we were through the war it did not make a bit of difference to us whether it was an admiral who came from Ver mont, or a lieutenant who came rrom Alabama." He complimented South Carolina upon the industrial progress of the state and then uttered a strong plea for reciprocity with Cuba. He appealed for closer relations for our advantage, and added that our advantage could only be gained by making it Cuba's advantage also. "I ask," he said "that in our trade relations with Cuba we give her marked and substantial advantage, not merely that it may redound to our interest to do so, but 1 ask it because events have so shaped themselves that it is our duty to heir Cuba, and I hope that we shall do It.' This sentiment was greeted with applause. "I want you to appreciate," said the president, in conclusion, "that I mear every word when I say that I have beer more than pleased?that I have beer touched and stirred by the warmth and heartiness with which you have made me feel today that I am one of you," The emphasis with which these words were spoken made them ring through the banquet hall. As soon as they had been uttered, every man in the roorr rose to his feet, cheered loudly and waved his napkin in the air. The demonstration lasted for several minutes, and the beaming smiles upon the president's face betokened the genuine pleasure which the spontaneous tribute afforded him. grofjcssioiml Cards. GEO. W.
