On Wednesday afternoon, July 26, a small cyclone or tornado struck the Silver Street section and blew down seven large oaks in Mrs. Spearman's yard. Its path was thence to Deadfall, where the- blacksmith shop wes blown down, and some tr es at Mr. David WVerts' place. At Bauknight's Ferry, on the Edge field side, 200 oak trees in the yard of Mr. James W. Herbert were blown down. Mr. Herbert's house is situated in a splendid 35-acre grove of oaks; .hence the great destruction there. SJ'he large sweet gum tree to which the ferry chain has been fastened for many years was torn up by its roots. The corn crop was considerably dam aged in the path of the tornado.

Many eurious and interesting sights are seen on the Midway Plaisance, this street of all nations, the Mecca of all visitors to tbe Great World's Fair, at Chicago; but among all its exhibits the "Panorama of the Swiss Alps" is doubt less the most highly artistic. To those whose good fortune it has been togo "abroad," this panorama awakens old memories, and to the many who have been less fortunate this really grand painting is a revelation. It is a perfect representation of the famed Bernese Oberland, as it would appear in all the immensity of reality to a sight-scer in the midst of the Alps. The illusion is made perfect by the truthfulness of local color and by the vigorous and sincere painting of such artists as Burn and, Baud-Bovy and Furet. This superb canvas was painted in Paris, France, for the express purpose of! exhibition at the Wodld's Fair, and has received the well-deserved encomiums of all the leading Frencht and American artists. r tf For The Herald and Nvw. "LOVE WILL ABIDE!" A story from "Dutch JFork", Newberry County.^ PY PROF. F. 5IVF.CII. Love never faileth !-, Cor. xiii, S. Omnia vincit amor!-Latan Proverb. In Newberry County the trav'ler may note 'Twixt the Broad and Saluda, the trace of a moat. Beknown as the "Dead Line", (for so he is told), That strictly divided the settlers of old, Since northward were dwelling the Irish and Scotch, And southward the Germans had peopled the "Crotch", Each party intent upon watching their side, Forgetting the lesson that "LOVE WILL ABIDE' One morn, through the "Dutch Fork", from farm to farm, From homestead to homestead was spread the alarm, That Gretchen "Dutch Gretchen", the settlement's pride, Was stolen at night-time by Billy McBride. Detected too early in their design, The two were overatken, when crossing the "Line"; Reproved for her venture, fair Gretchen replied: "You cannot divide us, for "LovE WILL ABIDE!" Now so it would hap, that at the same hour "Dutch Hans" had abducted "Scotch Bess" from her bower, The sweetest, the loveliest blossom of all That bloomed in the manor of Duncan McCall. Their flight was discovered: and hotly beset Were caught at the Dead Line, where-who should be met? But the captors of Gretchen and Billy McBride! "Cheer up, love!" spake Bessie, "for LOVE WILL ABIDE!" - And so the two parties, with the culprits between, Stood facing each other with angered mien; Each father demanding his daaghter's return, Each lover protesting with ardent concern, Each maid as collected, as if 'twere not her case. Till, at last, after fruitless discussion of ways, 'Twas left to the damsels the point to decide. What else was thier verdict, but: "LOVE WILL ABIDE!" For Gretchen responded with obstinate wil! By a pout of her lips: "I cling to my Bill!" And Bessie replied with a sidelong glance Upon her beloved: "I stand by my Hans !" en joining their voices as if in a duet, Spake: "Neighbors, why will you so sternly be set On mutual suspicion, refusing as guide That dearest of saying, that Lovz WILL ABIDE There was a grand wedding, as well you may guess, When Bill wed his Gretchen and Hans wed his Bess! But a wedding far greater than either of these, Was the Union of thousands in concord and peace, Resolved from their hearts the Dead Line to efface And mingled henceforward as one and the same race, To cherish their country and e'er to confide In mutual assurance, that LOVE WILL ABIDE! CHARLESTON, S. C., July 25, 1S93 * The story is taken from "The Annals of New berry," p- 554. "The "dead line" mentioned is now the Ridge road. F. M.

The "Future Progress Society," an organization of colored people for the betterment of the race, held their an nual picnic in our quiet little grove last Friday, and we are told the socie ty behaved with exceptional propriety yet enjoying the occasion fully. The officers and members said it was due the citizens of Helena that the beha viour should be good and that they would see to it that no noisy or turbu lent spirit should annoy them. There is a good and respectable class of .col ored citizens who are law-abiding and deplore all acts of violence. Of this class is the society above mentioned. It has a self-respecting charitable feature con nected with it which is very helpful to the order, Those of our colored people who are striving to do right and rear their families correctly have the confi dence and respect of the white people.

There lives a man on the western side of Blue Ruin who artfully dodged the surrounding mumps until they cornered him. When they did get a good chance at him they gave it to him on both sides at once and niade4 up for lost time. (rhe mumps mbay be plural but, it is singular how they act in a community. You first hear of them on one side-af a town and then on an other. When %.u thivik they are gone they come again. The mumps is or are a curious thing. They make a man tired and give a woman the blues-and of all bloe things a blue woman is the bluest. Pity the mumps cannot be wiped from the "face" of the earth, along with the other itinerant diseases.) P. S.-The mumps dodger ii well.

It may bedrama to an honest man; but to tUe poor negro with a large family it is sometimes al most tragedy; to the man who pays no taxes it is a farce, and to the man who cheats in his returns it is a "comedy of errors." * Urgent business called the sotis of re.t together again, the in'erests of the order demanding a full attendance. After the usual "blacklisting" busi ness, committee on statu quo reported favorably. Minutes of previously meet ing suspended to hear report of com mittee on investigation of rumors. Re port ordered recorded in moments of meeting. Rumor that just any son of rest was entitled to go with the press association to Cnicago, proved to be unfounded in fact; rumor that not one of the prohibition members was pres ent at the county prohibition conven tion some time back, proved to be true, and those members were cen sured for inconsistency, as the presi dent did not see how they could be such ardent prohibitionists and not attend the conventiou against ardent spirits before the dispensary days; rumor that several of the brethren were contemplating matrimony at this trying season, was proved to be a. slander on the organization-bacon ton high and cash too low. (That last rumor was run- up to parties who wanted to break down the order.) Questions discussed but unanswered. 1. Why is it that every time there is a big fruit crop and our housekeepers want to make lots of jam and preserves and jelly, sugar is always so high "out of sight," as it were-and when there is no fruit at all, sugar is low enough to be within reach of the poor est man, who always has the largest family? 2. Why is it that every time a fellow is in a hurry to take a trip on the cars the train is bound to be late, whilst the many times he is not in a hurry to stay at home he always hears the whistle and the bell to the minute? 3. Why is it that certain peo pIe know more about everybody eise's affairs than about their own? Upon the adoption of a pledge to "treat" others as they would 1e ".reated" in return, the association adjourned tc die.

Last Friday afternoon a neat-.looking young white woman with a three montirs-old infant arrived from the up-country and applied to L~em for lodging. Lem and his family took the stranger in and extended to her thbe hospitality of their humble home. The next morning the woman depart ed, taking the train towards Colum bia, leaving the infant with these col ored people, who kindly consented to take charge of it, the mother having told themi that she would, in a few days, provide for the child's future welfare. Mr. Irby ID. Shockley inter ested himself in tbe case and thought fully provided for the comfort of the innocent little waif by taking it to his home. On Monday Const2ble Baxter, armed with the necessary papers from Justice Evans, went to Helena and took legal possession of the young cast-away, turning it over to Mr. Jeff. D. Chapman, who, on Mr. Shockley's advice, took the infant and will care for it for the present. In the mean time the woman's brother, having heard of her whereabouts through a train hand who knew the family, got to Helena on Monday, but found that she had taken the train at Newberry as stated. The brother of the unfor tunate woman has requested that the names and residences of the parties and the circumstances of the affair be spared from public circulat=on, which wa withhold for the present. J. ID. says as everybody seems to want to see the baby he thinks he will bring it down town some day for the general inspection of the public. It has been pronounced cute. * * * Are the recent personally political letters subjects of criticism? If so, this corresponoent ventures the following: A politician is a politician the world over. A set of politicians, some in office and of coures working to hold fast and others out but trying to get in, are on friendly terms. In Wash ington they meet together and receive each other's endorsement. In their moments of social intercourse they talk freely. Their relations, and their hours of consultation, are pleasant. Hope makes them of one mind; and in their ignorance of the future they reveal the secrets of the past and relate to each other their personal and polit ical experiences. Congeniality begets c'nfidence even in the deceitfulness of the present. Time flies and opportu nity dies. From some cause the se m ingly friendly relations existing be tween the set of politicians are sev ered. With some, hope fails of "glad fruition," and the littie pleasant pel lets are changed to political dynamite bombs. (Diuty is politics and soiled the average politician, but nothing is dirtier than to betray the confidence of a once obliging friend under any cir cumstances ) A mass of irrelevant stuff is inflicted upon a suffering puhlic. "A talebearer revealeth secrets." " Th fool rageth and is confident." "He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly," and "the foolish ness of fools is folly." * *0* QUER.-When a man, in speaking of another on any given occasion, says: "Whose veracity no man will serious ly question in his presence," does he infer that the man is truthful? That inference was very flatly denied or contradicted by a gentleman in New berry last Saturday afternoon in the course of a conversation between sev eral parties. The language quoted either intends to convey the impres sion of veracity or fails of its object, one of the two. The man is truthful -~' L~ -er.-Latest U. S. Gov't Report. Powder ELY PURE or the writer of the sentence inferred what he could not plainly say, leaving a loophole of escape if questioned, and in that evant deceiving the public. Which is it? Perhaps a certain news paper in this town could "specify?" * * To threaten one with further ex posure, if lie retaliate, looks like trying to sileue him in advance. * * * If one man knows another to be a coward, it doesn't show bravery to so denounce him.

The union picnic of the Future Pro gress Society, held in the town of Helena, July 2Sth,was a complete suc cess. About 11 o'clock a. in., a lr.rge crowd of men, women and children had gathered in the grove. At 12 m. Rev. F. -R. Wallace, G. P., accompa-' nied by Rev. H. M. Raif'ord. of Colum bia, mounted the stand.. Prayer wa offered by Rev. N. Chiles. G. C. Presi dent Wallace then introduced Rev. Raiford in a telling little speech. The principal topic of the speaker was the progrevs of the race for twenty eight years in thc professional and in dostrial circles of his country as an educator, a common school teacher, machinist, merchant, farmner and doc tor. He also gave the approximate amount of taxable property held by the colored man in the South and made since the war. He showed the great need of socie ties among the race, and proved that the "Future Progress Society" has shown itself to be one of the best socie ties in the State for the race. He re viewed the object of this popular socie ty as stated in the second article of the constitution. He said it wes enough to induce every man and woman of the race to join. Glancing at the history of the race he said it baa done well, but there was much yet to be done. As a race we must educate our children and get good homles. Rev. Raiford spoke one hour. His speech was one of the best efforts of his life. Those who failed to hear it missed a big treat. At the close of the address there were more than seven hundred p3ople in the grove. President Wallace then introduced N. C. Duckett, General Travelling Agent, who made a fine talk on the pest and present work of the order, after which one of the most bountifni and delicious dinners s'en by the writer for mahy years, was prepared by the ladies and the large crowd was nicely provided for, and the enjoyment of all was great. A spirited ana interesting game of baseball wt'm played between the Newberry nine ana the Fairfield nine which resulted in favor of Fair field. The crowd remained in the grove till late.

Three Negroes Lynched at Gaston for As sault Upon Mrs. Sightler. COLUM BIA, S. C., July 25.-At Gas ton, a little town fourteen miles from Columbia on the South Bound railroad, last night two negroes named Handy and Thompson forced an entrance into the dwelling of Archie Sightler, white, and knocked Mrs. Sightler down and threatened to kill her little boy, 6 years old, if he made any outcry. rhe boy escaped and met a party of fox hunters who returned to the house, but the ne groes had escaped, it is presumed, after outraging the lady. Handy was caught and Thompson is supposed to be in Columbia. Parties are after.him. The negroes entered the house in a nude condition. SCOURGED, HANGED AND RIDDLED WITH BULLETS. COLU5111A, S. C., July 30.-The lynching occurred at Geston to-day. The first to swing was Will Thompson, a negro 16 years old, who committed all assault upon Mrs. Archie Sightler, of Gaston. He was captured near Co lumbia. He was taken to Gaston early this morning. A special train over the South Bound took seventy-five people from Columbia, who joined the people of the neighborhood, but they took no active part. Thompson was subjected to horrible torture by the crowd before he was hung. Men cocked their guns and pistols and put them in his face, but lie did not show fear until the crowd wanted to burn him. He asked them for God's sake to do anything else but that, and some cool heads prevented such a horrible tragedy. He was taken down the railroad to a small tree just on the embankment. Mr. Sightler, the husband of the out raged woman, took a heavy buggy trace and beat him unmercifully. A rope around his neck prevented him from yelling. Fifty heavy lashes were laid on, each one drawing blood. Sightler then knocked him in the head and face, knocking out his teeth and one eye ball A platform of crossties was made and Thompson was placed upon it. A rope was put around his neck, and he confessed the crime, implicating two other negroes named Preston and Haigler. The platform was knocked out tie by tie, and the poor wretch was slowly strangled. He was allowed to suffer two minutes, when hundreds of buck shot riddled his body. One shot cut the rope and the body fell, but was strung up again, and the crowd fired hundreds of shots, in the lifeless body. The crowd then went gn a search for Preston, who was captured about 11 o'clock. He was subjected to the same treatment, if not worse. He denied his guilt to the last, but he wes strung up on the same limb upon which Thompson'i body was hanging. He was afflicted with a filthy disease, which caused the crowd to be more angry. While he was struggling in death thousands of bullets were shot into him. leaving hardly a square inch untouched. Haigler will be lynched before midnight. THE THIRD NEGRO LYNCHED. COLUMBIA, S. C., July 31-Handy Kaigler, the third negro in the Gaston outrage, was strung up tnis morning to the same limb upon which the bodies of Thompson and Preston were banged. Kaigler had been in Lexing ton jail since Wednesday night in safe keeping. When he was taken there it was understood between the lynch ing crowd from Gaston and the sheriff that Kaigler should be delivered to them when they wanted him. As the man was not committed by a regular process of law, the sheriff -promised to keep him and deliver him when want ed. At 12 o'clock last night six men rode into Lexington village and, hav ing produced the proofs that they were representatives of the people of Gaston, Sheriff Drafts opened the doors and gave Kaigler to them. There was no excitement or anger dis played. The crowd was there for bus iness and they transacted it in short order and went away. .They took the prisoner back to Gas ton, arriving there about daylight. A large crowd was present and they pro ceeded to give Kaigler the same treat ment that was accorded the other two men who were hanging lifeless and perforated on a small limb. Kaigler was taken to the same spot and be saw the two bloody bodies before him. The crowd had previously been beating him with whips, sticks and anything else they could pick up. They hung him for two minutes try ing to make him confess, but under all the punishment he steadily refused to confess. He stagd positively that he was not one of the men and no amount of torture which was inflicted upon him would make him confess any com plicity in the crime. Tiring of all ef fort for a confession, the mob stripped him and called for the outraged hus band to come forward and whip him. Arch Sightler did so, and although ex hausted by loss of sleep each blow he hit brought blood and piteous cries from the prisoner, who was held down by the other men. Sightler finally be camne exhausted but another man took his place and the cruel lashing was re newed with vigor. WVhen Kaigler was almost dead and when the two men had exhausted themselves whipping him, he was strung up between Thompson and Preston. A platform was made for him, a rope was put around his neck and having been thrown over the limb, fifty men took- hold and gradualiy pulled him up. They did not jerk hian suddenly so as to break his neck. They pulled him up gradually and let him down at times. They did this.to tor ture him as much as possible before death ensued. After letting him down time and again he was finally pulled up for the last time. His struggling was horrible to behold but they did not seem to care. Arch Sightler finally drove a bullet into the man's head and. death was immediate. Laces and Embroideries at tf DAVENPoIlg & RENwICK'S. Call at the Ice House for bottled Soda Water.
