She led him to two chairs which had sealed the future of thousands. "I am afraid," said the Bashful One t..~*oftur nhe hnrt led him far ther still, "that your father would | hardly give his consent." "My father is always willing to listen to reason," she urged. "But your mother?" "Absolutely dotes on you, George," "M'yes. But you would never get on with my own people, I'm certain." "Why, dear, I simply love them!" "And, of course, my income is small." "Luxury." she cried, clasping her hands, "has ceased to possess charms for me!

One by the Farmer.?Once in a while the farmer gets back at the "city feller." and this is the brief tale of how a well-known Milwaukee lawyer, sojourning in the country for a week, fell a victim of Uncle Josh's subtle sense of humor. The legal light had gone to the country to work. He lust shed his coat and kicked right in as 'twere. He had been assisting in stacking the first crop of hay and was working on top of the stack. When "knocking-off" time came the stack was pretty high and the city chap didn't know just how to return to terra flrma. "Say, how'm I goin' to get down?" asked the lawyer person. The farmer considered for a moment. Then^he shouted: "Oh, Jest shet your eyes and walk around kind o' keerless, an* you'll get down"?Milwaukee *Yee Press. A Darky's Partnership. ? Senator John Sharp Williams tells the following as illustrating the simplicity of the old-time darky in the south: Mr. Williams was once proceeding along a road near a Mississippi town when he met an aged negro hauling driftwood into his farmyard. There ' the senator saw a pile of wood already stacked to such an extent that he was moved to say: "Uncle, you've gathered a big lot of ( firewood, haven't you?" "I shore has!" chuckled the old man, an' what you sees ain't half what I've ' picked up dis season." "What do you do with the rest of it. sell It?" "No, sah.

It chanced that the callers were shown into a room where the friend had been receiving a milliner, and there were several beautiful hats lying about. During the conversation the little girl amused herself by examining the milliner's creations. Of the number that she tried on, she seemed particularly pleased with a large black affair which set off her light hair charmingly.

Notes and Comments About Matters of Local Interest. Chester Lantern, January 23: Mr. Howard Westbrook, father of the late John Westbrook of this city, died last Saturday at Pine Bluff, Ark. He was a former Chester county man, and left many relatives here The deaf mute wno was Kinea iasi wets m du?.-ivstock, it is reported, was a citizen ot Charlotte. It is also stated that he had a sister living in Rock Hill. A citizen from the Blackstock community was in the city yesterday and gave the Lantern some facts about the man. It seems that the man, who was well dressed, entered Mr. Ed Craig's store, Mr. Craig addressed several remarks to him, and instead of answering them he pulled a note book out of his pocket and several sentences were exchanged betwe?~- the two with the aid of the note book. The stranger left the store and was walking on the railroad track when a local freight came upon him, the engine striking him in the head, which caused his death instantly. The remains of the stranger were interred in the cemetery at Blackstock Friday afternoon. Rock Hill Record, January 23: Mrs. Maggie Orr, an aged lady living on Jones avenue, died this morning and her remains will be buried in Laurelwood tomorrow morning The remains of Mr. T. L. Roddey, a fo'rmer resident of this olty, who died in Charlotte Saturday night, were brought here yesterday afternoon and buried in Laurelwood cemetery. The following from today's Charlotte Observer gives the particulars In regard to his death: "A distressing death was that of Mr. Thomas L. Roddey, which occurred Saturday night at the Mercy General hospital. It was the result of a fall on the ice ten days previous. A blood vessel in his right arm burst, the blood became clotted, and despite the preventive . efforts of physicians his heart became fatally affected. The seriousness of his condition had been known since last Monday, when he became confined to bed. The accident occurred on the rear porch of his home, on the corner of Church and Third streets. Mr. Roddey was. about 28 years of age. He was the son of Mrs. M. E. Roddey of this city, his father having died about four years ago. Several years ago the family came here from Rock Hill, S. C."

He is one of Gaston's best business men, and the board nade a wise selection in choosing him to handle the county funds. He was ?iven until the first Monday in February to make his bond, which is (135,000. Chester Reporter, January 23: South Carolina needs an improved Jury -exemption law; but there Is reason to believe that the law on this subject which Governor Blease vetoed and which the legislature refused to pass over his veto was not exactly the measure that is needed. This law made members of many callings and professions eligible for jury duty who now escape such service, but included in the list ministers of the gospel. The governor vetoed the bill on the ground that ministers should not be forced to do Jury duty, and the general assembly sustained him. it being the general opinion that no matter how effective service ministers might perform as Jurors they have other and more important duties which are liable to Maim their attention at any moment; and for this reason it would be better to pass another bill in which ministers are not called upon to do Jury duty. Many members did not exactly approve of forcing ministers to perform this kind of duty, but voted for the measure notwithstanding, as they feared that for lack of time at this session it might be impossible to frame and pass a law embodying the other features desired. South Carolina needs a law striking out many of the classes and callings who are now excused from Jury duty; but most people will probably be disposed to agree that ministers of the gospel should not be forced into this kind of duty The appointment of Postmaster J. W. Dunovant, which was sent to the senate last week, has been duly confirmed. As was stated in last week's Reporter. Mr. Dunovant's present term does not expire for several months yet, and his reappointment at this time is a token of the department's satisfaction with his work....Mr. J. A. Hope, who lives near Lowryvllle, met with a severe, though, fortunately, not serious, accident this morning. He was helping to load a shredder on a wagon when in some way the shredder slipped out and he was struck on the head. He was knocked senseless, but soon re covered. VAGARIES OF THE TIDE. Mysterious Currents, the Secrets of Which No One Has Solved. There are as Ttiany vagaries in the waters as in the wind. Why. for instance. should great ocean currents send their warm waters across the wide Pacific and Atlantic? Other and equally mysterious currents exist in well nigh all parts of the world. It is on record that the sea has run for weeks out of the Java sea. through the strait of Sunda and thence back again for a like period without any perceptible rise and fall during those times. Then there is the equatorial current that flows into the Caribbean sea. the ever flowing current to the eastward around Cape Horn, the cold stream flowing from the Icy regions of the north past Newfoundland and Nova Scotia and along the American coast to the extreme end of Florida, the continual current running with a velocity of from four to five knots to sea In a an hour through the strait of Gibral- The one tar Into the Mediterranean sea. the a swift current running across the rocks ono and shoals off the end of Billlton is- might be i > land, which apparently starts from said there nowhere In the vicinity of the same 'nf a ... ..
