A Double Load for Tillman. CoifUaiBiA, S. C., OCTOBER 10. Judging iroiuthe temper of the people since the last scandal has developed in the State dispensary, Senator Tillman ?will have to keep his promise of stump ing South /Carolina for the institution he founded or see it demolished/ The action of the board of control in dismissing Commissioner Douthit, after exposing what they termed "gross frauds on the people of South Caro lina," and the discharging of Chief Bookeeper Ouzts, who has been a strong supporter of Tillman, following him around the State as a newspaper correspondent in his first campaign, gives the dispensary tho most severe blow it has ever-received. For the I first time the county press is almost j unanimous against the institution. Most of the papers call for its abo ition: others urge the Legislature to change the system, divorce it from polities and put men of high character in charge of it. One man of high standing, who has been connected with it as a member ol: the board of control, says it is im , possible to get honest men to run that business: the temptations andopportu nties for theft are too great. The papers term the dispensary a nest of corruption and thievery. It is asserted that no man has ever been connected with the dispensary who has not been caught in some fraud or irreguiarity or resigned under sus pifcion, and that the record carries out that assertion. informer investigations the pro dispensary people charged persecution, and as nothing was actually proved the institution was.hurt littlein the estimation of its friends. Now it is different. Tiie investigation has been conducted by members of the board, Reformers and friends of the dispen sary. The Prohibitionists will make a hard fight against the.dispensary when the Legislature meets in January. They . almost won that point at the last session, which was to have the matter of dispensary or prohibition referred to a vote of the people. They will probably win next time. If they do senator Tillman will have-, a double load to carry in his Senatorial race next year. The Prohibitionists are much stronger in the State than ever before.-New York Tribune.

"With the first touch of gold on the " beards a feverish activity begins. The farmer gets his binder and reaper and arranges with his neighbor to trade off work. Daily the thrasher creeps near er, now e&dt, now west, but always further nor?b"" writes John Northern . Hillards in the Ladies' Home Journal. "At length the men of the family ride away in a wagon to help a neighbor, returning at night with the news that 'the machine may be here any time now.' The women are thrown into a flutter of excitement, and the next day, while the men are gone, the oven is filled with loaves, then with pies and oakes. The great kettle is hung . on the crane in the yard and hams are boiled. All the buttermilk is saved to be sent to the men in the field, and root, beer is brewed: The chickens are dressed and vegetables gathered in anticipation of the harvest supply. "At. last the thrasher, drawn by four horses, pulls to the field, and other wagon3 follow, loaded with sing ing, shouting men and boys,, most of them neighbors, only a few traveling with the machine. The last wagon will contain women and girl neighbors, who have come to help get supper and wait on the- men. They come on to the house, bringing with th sm many dishes, knives and forks and table linen to help out the ordinary family outfit. Such shouting and laughing and joking and exchange of good news and bad news ! "In the windless September air the booming of the separator's cylinder rises above the steam voice of the traction engine. Six teams are in the .field hauling the wheat to the machine, and the feeder with easy, majestic movement gathers the sheaves under bis arms at.d feeds them into the insatiable maw. All the afternoon the golden straw climbs and falls over in the smoky air; the chaff flies in a blinding cloud, and the grain flows like a stream of sun-flecked water into the two-bushel measures, which are tipped into a wagon." Worthy of Trial-That ls the Opinion of Mr. A. E. Thornton. "I think it is best not to hide a light under bushels, and when a good remedy is discovered it is our duty to let it be known in the interest of suf fering humanity.

Broughton made a savage attack in his sermon to-night upon Governor Candler and Atlanta society in general for serving wine at receptions. He said that whenever there was a society function in Atlanta there was always a convenient bar in the hall way, where a "little lady" would dis pense punch, and that the same thing occurred at the executive mansion when receptions were given there, with the same hallway punch arrange ment, and that the voters should see to it hereafter that Georgia should have no more such governors. His listeners were at a loss to under stand his reference to the "little lady" 1 who served the punch, but the im pression conveyed was that she was bankrupt in religious fervor and piety. He boldly asserted that there had not been a public german in this city since his pastorate here that society ladies did not drink, and that on one occasion several got beastly drunk and that they had to be spirited home ia close carriages. The sermon produced a profound sensation upon all who heard it. He characterized waltzing as lustful, and said that all its votaries, with rare ex ceptions, were actuated by that.im pulse only. Thc tabernacle where the sermon was delivered was crowded to the doors, as the preacher had previously announced that he would preach upon "The Fast Young Woman," and the people that flocked to hear him ex pected a lively time, and were not dis appointed. He advised parents to watch their daughters who entertained company later than 10:30 o'clock, and said "No young man had any busi ness; at a white's man's house later than that hour." Sam Wang's Watermelon. Sam Wang, a Chinese laundryman over in Covington, was paying his Saturday night visit to Sixth Street Market last week, and after getting together a basketful of Celestial deli cates ^started homeward. He stopped to make one final purchase at a veg etable stand, and the proprietor having a somewhat old watermelon on hand, presented it to Wang with his. com pliments. Sam accepted, and dragged it all the way over the bridge. Sam had often seen a watermelon, but had never tasted one, and neither had any of his family. A council of all the Chicks in the neighborhood was held that night, but noone knew what to do with the watermelon. Finally, after mature deliberation, a huge washing boiler was procured and the melon dumped into it and boiled for two hours. Then the entire colony sat down and discussed the luscious morsel. In about two hours shrieks of agony were heard proceeding from the laundry, and when the neighbors entered they found Sam, his family and the other Chinamen rolling on the floor, emitting Chinese oaths and clutching at their stomachs. A doctor was called, and by liberal use of Jamaica ginger brought them around. When Sam next visited the market the vegetable dealer shouted at him: "Well, Sam, how did you like the watermelon?" "Me likee diam bad!" said Sam. "What did it taste like?" "Taste likee nothin"! Act likee' hellee!" was all Sam would say. Cincinnati Enquirer. Proclaimed His Immorality. Since the new jury law went into effect few talesmen have been excused in Brooklyn. Io thc county court Chief Clerk Van Doren yesteruay. after calling the names of the tales men summoned to serve, said : "There are oniy four excuses that can be given iu order to bu relieved from jury duty. They are: Being under age, not able to ri ad or write, being of bad character and being an alien. Are there any talesman who desire to be excused ? ' "I want to bc excused," said one of the talesmen. "On what ground ?" asked Chief Clerk Van Doren. "Because I'm an immoral character,"' was the response. The answer caused a sensation in the court room and Judge Aspioall looked surprised. "What is your name and address?" asked the Judge. "Eugene T. Victory, 946 Gates ave nue," replied the man. "Why are you a bad character?" "I've been arrested three times for intoxication." he replied. "Well," said Judge Asp!?ulI, "at any rate you are honest enough to ac knowledge the fact.

C., October lb.-Th most remarkable election since th time of Aristides is reported from Judge's Store, in thc hamlet of Lands ford, this County. Its object was to determine which citizens should bc invited to leave the neighborhood for thc improvement of its moral tone. An iuvitition to leave in this country means "leave!" and is never disobey ed, the man to whom it isgiven choos ing whether he will go over the State line or ''through the gates ajar." There has recently been much ille gal liquor selling aboutLandsford, and the presence of some undesirable wo men was supposed to bc encouraged by the persons conducting thc liquor traffic. Last week Constable J. L. Rape seized a buggy and mule and fif teen gallons of liquor, which he inter cepted duriug thc night. Under the State dispensary law property used iu conveying liquor unlawfully is confis cated. The mau in charge of thc out fit escaped. A night or two later an attempt was made to kill a mule be longing to a prominent citizen, who was supposed to' have instigated the constable to the seizure. This brought matters to a point. Every white man in the neighbor hood was summoned to meet at Judge'.s Store, and they gathered to the num ber of fifty. All their names were en rolled, and the secretary then an nounced that there was to be an elec tion, and put the question as follows: "If you conscientiously believe there are any person or persons whose pres ence is contaminating to the moral and social atmosphere of this commu nity, then write his or their names on a piece of paper, fold, and deposit in ballot box. On the contrary, if you conscientiously do not believe there are any such person or persons in the community, then so write it." A box was opened, ballots were dis tributed and managers were appointed. The voting proceeded silently and there we no quarrels or threats. The man known to be the owner of the whiskey laden mule the constable had captured was preseDt and voted like the others. When the box was open ed it was found that'he had carried the precinct by a majority which did not seem to gratify him. His name was on most of the ballots. It is not not known whether he voted for him self or cast a courtesy ballot for some other man. r Several other men of those present rec?ived such liberal support that they began preparations next morning to finish picking out their cotton in a burry. It was understood that those invited to depart will do so "as soon as practicable," and the only limit put upon their destination by the sense of the meeting is that it shall be "else where."_ _ An Unsought Pardon. Among the stories of that former Governor of Texas, familiarly known as Sam Houston is more than one amusing tale. * There was a financial agent of the penitentiary, who had warmly opposed the election of Governor Houston; but was particularly anxious to retain his own pleasantly lucrative position. Consequently the governor was soon in receipt of a petition in which the mao's years of faithful service and special qualifications for the place were set forth i? glowing terms by himself. The governor sent for him and said gravely, "It appears from this petition that you have been in the penitentiary eight years." "I have," was the reply. "And during that time you have per formed faithfully every duty that has come in your way to the best of your ability?" "I have," answered the agent, his courage swiftly rising. "Then, sir," said thc governor, with thc air of one conferring a priceless favor, "I pardon you out!"-Youth's Companion. Why Monogamy Prevails. Margherita Arlina Hamnj, the well known traveler and author, called when in China upon the wife, rather the wives, of a great mandarin. Her visit partook of thc nature of a festi val, so novel was the experience of the Chinese women, whose lives are passed almost entirely within the walls of yamen. They examined her clothing, and were partly pleased and partly astonished at it. They were shocked by her shoes, and especially by thc fact that her feet were not confined by bindings. Finally one ol' them said, through thc interpreter, "You can walk and run just as well as a man?" "Why, certainly." "Can you ride a pony as well as a man?" "Of course." "Then you must bc as strong as most men?" "Yes, I think I am." "You wouldn't let a man beat you, not even your husband, would you?" "Not at all." The Chinese women paused, laugh ed and said: "Now I understand why foreigners never take more than one wife. They ; are afraid to.''-New York Telegraph. Couldn't Catch Him. Mr. Kuhn was thrifty in money matters, and cared little for his own personal appearance. He had worn the same old shabby overcoat until his sons were ashamed of him, and tried to induce him to buy a new one. "Oh, no," the old gentleman would always say, "I would rather have thc ten dollars that it would cost." One day the sons determined that he should wear a new coat, aud, be lieving that if he could get one at a good bargain he would buy it. arranged with a tailor to sell him.a ten-dollar coat for seven dollars and a half, they to pay thc difference. They then went home and told their father what a handsome coat they had seen, ana what a bargain it would be to buy it. So the father went and looked at it. and after beating thc tailor down to six dollars, took it and started for home. But when he reached thc door he had no coat with him. "Didn't you buy the coat, father?" "Yes; got it for six dollars," re plied the old man. "Where is it?" "Oh! I was showing it toa friend on the street car, and when he offered me eight dollars for iL I let him have it."-Colliers Weekly. Life Insurance is Sinful. The preachers of the German Lu theran Church in the Litchfield district assembled at Mount Olive recently to discuss the relations of life insurance to the Bible. The conference was at tended by about eighty ministers and lasted several days. These ministers hold that money and goods can be rightly obtained in only three ways by work, by gift or by inheritance; that money secured by life insurance is the result of good luck, or a spe cies of a game of chance; that life in surance is against the first Command ment, because it takes a man's trust off God and places it on the insurance company; that it is against the sev enth Commandment, because by it the beneficiary gets something not paid for, and, therefore, stolen; that it is against the ninth commandment, be cause the person who invests in life insurance is taught to covet something not his own. They hold, therefore, that life insurance is sinful. Thc out come of the conference has been watched with great interest, as in this district most of the citizens belong to the German Lutheran Church, and it is impossible to induce the ? to take life insurance. Under no Obligations. On returning from the barn one morning the old man found his wife in tears. "Wha' cher cryin' about, Melissy?" he inquired. "'Nother-one-uv our darters was stole las'night," she sobbed. "The red-headed un?" he asked, laconically. "Yes-pore Mag-she was the best gal-" "Bob .Scuttles ?" "Uv course; hasn't been no other feller waitin' on her. Ain't you goin' to pursue after 'em an' arrest 'im?" "Uv course not," he replied, stern ly. "I'm not under obligations to help Bob Scuttles out of no difficulty. Let him go ahead and work out his sentence, same's I've been a-doin fur the las' 40 years." - Only three of the Spanish ves- j sela sunk by Admiral Dewey in Manila | bay and subsequently raised will bc of any use. - Chicago uses every year 41,000, 000 pounds of soap^_ Conquerors Conquered. It is a remarkable aud instructive fact that the career of four of the most renowned characters that ever lived closed with a violent or mourn ful death. Alexander, af tur looking down from thc dizzy heights of his ambition upon i conquered world, and weeping that there were no more to conquer, died of intoxication in a scene of debauch, or, as sonic suppose, by poison min filod in !?i.- wine. Hannibal, whose name carried terror to the heart of Home itself, after hav ing crossed the Alps arid put to flight the armies ol' thc mistress of thc world, was driven from his country and died at last of poison administered by his own hands, in a foreign land, unlamented and unwept. Cmsar. the conqueror of SOO cities, and his temples bound with chaplets dipped in the blood of a million of his fees, was miserably assassinated by those he considered his nearest friends. Bonaparte, whose mandate Kings and Emperors obeyed, after filling the earth with thc terror of his name, closed his days in lonely banishment upon a barren rock in thc midst of the Atlantic Ocean. Such thc four men who may be con sidered representatives of all whom the world call great, and such their end-intoxication, or poison-suicide -murdered by friends-lonely exile! - WM . mu One Was Enough. ' This is one of General Miles' stories. In tlie Confederate army Longstreet's Corps was making a night march. About 3 or 4 o'clock in thc morning, when everyone was worn out, a Georgia regiment stopped. A Georgia soldier put his rifle up against the tent on the other side of where Long street was. "Well," he said, "this is pretty hard-to fight ail day and march all night. But I love my country. I am going hungry. I can fight. t If need be, I can die for my country.

MOST VIOLENT GASES HAVE Tho greatest care should be given to any little sore, pimple or scratch which shows no disposition to heal under ordin ADDCADCII AT TIDQT AC ary treatment. No one can tell how soon these HI rCAnCU Al lino I Au will develop into Cancer of the worst type. So many people dio from Cancer simply be MEQf Pl M Pl cause they do not know just what tho disease is; m L ML r I III I L Lu i they naturally turn themselves over to the doctors, and aro forced to submit to a cruel and dangerous operation-the only treatment which the doctora know for Cancer. The disease promptly returns, however, and ia even more violent and destructive than before. Cancer is a deadly poison in the blood, and an operation, plaster, or other external treatment can have no effect whatever upon it. The cure must come from within-the last vestige of poison must bo eradicated. Mr. Wm. Walpole, of Walshtown, S. D., says: "A littlo blotch about tho sizo of a pea came under my left eye. gradually growing larger, from which shooting pains at intervals ran in all directions. I became greatly alarmed and consulted a good doctor, who pronounced it Cancer, and advised that it be cut out, but this I could not con sent to. I rend in my local paper of a euro effected by S. S. S.. and decided to try it. It acted liko a charm, tho Cancer becoming at first irritated, and then discharging very freely. This gradually grew less and then discon tinued altogether, leaving a small pcab which soon drop ped off. and now only a healthy little scar remains where what threatened to destroy my lifo once held full sway." Positively tho only cure for Cancer is Swift's Specific S. S. 8. FOR THE BLOOD -because it is the only remedy which can go deep enough to reach the root of the disease and force it out of the system permanently.
