He is a worthy member -of a family that has given the county some of He best citizens, both in the past and present times. Owing to the absence of the pastor, who was in Spartanburg attending the commencement exercises of Wofford College, there was no preach ing at the Methodist church ou Sunday. There was services in all the other churches. At night there waa a union service at the Baptist church, the fermon being preached • Hit. IP. frf. Dr. W. J. Alexander Sacmnihs to a Stroke of Paralysis. On Monday night Dr. W. J. Alex ander had a severe stroke of paralysis and remained in" an unconscious condition until 10 o’clock on Wednes day night, when he quietly passed away. From the first there was no hope entertained of his recovery^ and there was but little for his physician and friends to do except to waitr for the final end. He had been unwell for about a week previous to this attack and hud remained pretty closely at home, but thought so lightly of his indisposition that he did uot call in the services of bis physician. ' f He was born in 1848 in Georgia, but for nearly twenty years had been a residentof this .Stale, lie graduated with distinction at Mercer ("Diversity and after that took the regular course in the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, with the intention of de voting his life to the work of the THE REAPER DEATH. ministry. His first charge was at Edgefield, from which place he re moved to Darlington in 1877, having received and accepted a call to the Baptist church in this place. While here his sermons, by their striking originality and dcplL of thought at tracted marked attention, and the clear and lucid manner with which he would analyze and bring out the salient points of his text easily placed him in the front rank of the minis ters of his denomination. Even those who could not entirely subscribe to his views were compelled to admire the logical and forcible manner with which he presented them. In 1882 Dr. Alexander’s ability received recognition by his election to the chair of Ethics and Christian Science in the South Carolina College. It is almost needless to say that no filled the position with credit both to himself aud the institution. During his incumbency of this professorship, finding that he could not subscribe to all the doctrines that were recog nized as the creed of his denomina tion he, with the courage and candor that were characteristic of his nature, withdrew from its communion and connected himself with the Unitarian church. This change aud the intense political animosity that prevailed at the time, forced him, about two years ago to resign his position in the college, and was instrumental in his entering ou a business career, which gave every promise of success had his life been spared. After his retirement from the college he, very much to the gratifi- catiou of his numerous friends here, made Darlingtou his home. Confi dence in his business capacity whs so great that he whs elected presi dent of the Phosphate Company, which he was largely instrumental in organizing, and managed its affairs to the entire satisfaction of the stoek- holdeia. He had only n few months ago moved into a new house, where in the midst of a happy family circle there was every reason to hope that he would spend many happy days, and his dying just in the prime o’f life is a sad blow not only to his family, but to his large circle af friends as well. In the private and social rela tions of life he was a model in every respect, aud it is in these that he will be most sorely missed. He was modest and unassuming in his maimer, and all who came in con tact with him were impressed by the courtesy that he extended alike to all, it mattered not whether friend or stranger. He leaves a wife and three children. The interment took place yesterday afternoon at the Baptist cemetery, the following gentlemen acting ns pall bearers. Honorary pall bearers— G. W. Dargan, J. J. Ward, C. W. Hewitt, J. G. McCall, Waddy Thompson. Active pall bearers— W. C. Coker, C. 13. Edwards, J. E. Norment, G. C. Walsh, A. C. McFall, M. T. Lide. The stores were all closed as a mark of respect, and despite the rain the funeral was largely attended by all classes of our people. Th« burial service was read at the grave by Cupt. II. T. Thompson. WHEEL NOTES. THE “CUT” WILL NOT AFFECT THE HIGH GRADE MACHINES. A Grand Taaraaneit Talked af for Tncsday, July 4th—Several New Machines Placed. For several days the “cut” in the price of bicycles, by the Warwick Company, has been the topic,of < cqp* versation among our lo6al wheelmen, aud many thought that all high grade wheels would takh V tumble. In this connection- the Wheel aud Cyclijig Trade Review, ‘authority oq all matters pertaining to the bioycle brtkiness, says: - * » * “The event *if the week is the out in prices by the Warwick Cycle Manufacturing Company and Messrs. Hulbert & Co. The reduction of the latter firm is a matter of business policy, pure and simple. There is no possibility of ascribing the cut to any cause except the one that the firm thought a cut advisable. “The cut in Warwick cycles is re ported to bo due to various causes. The New England press states that it is due to ‘need of ready money;’ to ‘changes in management.’ “From a score of newspaper com ments, we gather that the manage ment of the Warwick business has been neglected. We presume that this is due to the fact that the prin cipal stockholders have so many in terests. This lack of management is probably due to the neglect of one of the officers of the company. “There is no need for alarm. Prices are not “rotten” and there is no need for other people to cut. This flurry will soon pass off like u sum- The Warwick Company THE MINERAL SPRING. Why Ntt Make It a Resort For Pleasure Seekers. There ought to’be some concerted action oh' theportof the county com- missioners amt the’ town council with the.view of definicelv fixing the boun daries of the land kurrouudiug the -eprtug that Was set apart for public use, and when this is settled the prop erty should be fixed up and made to look as attractive as possible. We have been informed that the land thus set apart contains only one half an-acre, and if this be true then im mediate steps should be taken to add tb the tract at taut four acres. When thig quantity is secured it should bo laid out with a drive-way amd walks and planted with pretty trees anaalsb have some shrubbery and grass. The wooden sleepers and floor, immediately surrounding the spring, should be removed and re placed with cement, which would ob viate the necesity for any repairs for a good many years to come. If suf ficient money could be raised it would be a good idea to have a good sized dancing pavilion erected for the ac commodation of picnic parties. This would make it one of the prettiest resorts in the State and would be a great attraction to the town. The intention of the original own ers in setting apart the property was to put it out of the power of anyone to prevent the public from having free access to the water. In writing of this spring it may Ire of interest to call attention to Tallu lah spring and suggest that an effort should be mode to make it public property. It is over a mile from the square, but within the corporation, and be* mer storm.

A Narrow Escape. On Monday afternoon, during the prevalence of the thunder storm, Mrs. J. W. Evans had a very narrow escape from death. She was standing in the yard near a large oak when it was struck and considerably damaged by a stroke of lightening* She re ceived a very severe shock and was unconscious for a time, but suffered no bud effects except the nervous shock and a severe pain in the back of her head, where the hair was singed by the heat of the electric current. Very fortunately her sister, Miss Catsie Spain was standing near the window and ou seeing her full ran to her relief aud carried her iu the house. mistake in policy, “The riders of bicycles may prate about the ‘enormous profit’ of bicycle makers, but beyond ten or a dozen people wo have yet to meet any of the very rich men in the trade who made their money in the trads. “Iu the bicycle business, beyond the actual cost of making a bicycle, there are many additional items or expenses, as an unusual amount of advertising; travelers, an unusually large proportion of bad accounts; changes in patterns involving a con tinued expense in the tool-making department;- making the guarantee good, which runs up a big account, as many wheels are returned by agents during each season. “The report that a combination on prices has been formed is ridiculous. The other mukefa are annoyed by the cut on account of its moral ef fect; but they are not alarmed and they will not change their prioes. What are called highest grade bi cycles cannot be placed in the hands of the rider at their reduced prices.” Mr. Henry Dargan is riding a Waverly. Mr. L. S. Welling is training a N'o. 1 Rambler.

McCullough purchased three wheels on Monday. Two Ram blers, for himself and Mrs. McCul lough, aud a Waverly for Master Ernest. Messrs. Hunter Moore, Charley Hike and Platt Morgan, of Florence, came up the early part of the week to take a spin ou the truck. They were riding Ramblers. Ramblers and G. & J. tires wer among the very heaviest scorers dur ing the past week. They led the wav across the tape iu the I’hiladel- phla-Wllmington team race; they won first places and time prizes in the Rome and Grand Rapids, Mich., road races on Decoration Day; took four firsts at the Alameda, Cal*., meet, including a State championship and a Pacific record, and to crown all, F.

It is a matter of profound! regret that so little interest was manifested iu keeping up this mili tary organization, and for a town as large as Florence not to ha’c u. company is something of a reproach to the community. Any circum stances that call for the em; loymeut of troop’, to assist the civil authori ties in preserving the peace, are very much to be deplored, but ui der the peculiar couditious that coufnnt us, iu tills State, there is always the possibility of some emergency arising where a military force is an absolute necessity, and without which our cities and towns would be nt the mercy of a mob when any occasion arose to call it into existence. In the case of Florence if an attempt were made to break into the jail mid take a prisoner out, the sheriff would be practically helpless, whereas if he could com i:and the immediate services of a well drilled and dis ciplined company, he would be ablej to protect tlie prisoners against the whole county, at least until addi-| tional help could reach him.

This world-renowned wizard will f [ive three entertainments at the opera louse here on the 1 Oth, 17th and 19th of this month. Signor Bosco is well known here, he gave three entertain ments in our opera hottse in January 1890, to crowded houses every night. Many doubtless were drawn by the large number of beautiful and costly presents that he gave away each evening. Speaking of his visit to Bay City, Michigan, the “Tribune” of that city says: “The opera house was full to overflowing last evening to witness the performance of the celebrated professor in bis display of legerdemain. Long before the rise of the curtain the seats were all full, and soon after the aisles were filled with chairs which were soon occupied. At half-post eight, “standing room only” was announced, but still tickets sold until every available inch of the door both above and below, was filled with an interested and attentive audience. The excellent address of the Signor and the close proximity to the marvelous, of his many and varied performances, attracted the attention and pleased all who had the pleasure of seeing and listening.

Among the recent graduates of Converse College was Miss Ella King,' of Florence, whose graduating essay, ' “Intuitional truth,” was of such high merit as to elicit a lengthy notice in! the State, a compliment which is i very rare in cases of this kind. Miss 1 King’s mother was a native of this! county, being the daughter of the lute Mr. Hardy Parrott, aud the 1 young lady herself has many friends- aud relatives in this section who will learn with great pleasure of her sue- j cess. She was awarded the medal for elocution iu a class of twelve, j Miss King concluded her essay with | the following words: “The class of ’98, stepping to-night across the boundary which separates girlhood from womanhood, will go forth, I hope and believe, prepared to stand always face to face with Truth, and j ready to see it as God r .ould have us see it—determined bravely and re-! verently to carry the influence of a cultured, Christian life into our homes, into society and into whatever sphere of duty we may be called. M’iiii high ideal’s and lofty purposes we will unite the commonest duties of life. “Standing to-night, expectant, we place our hand in that or the Great Teacher of all, to be led and guided to the issue of a true, strong life.” Why*Non [Sumter Watchman ] i It is granted that gambling is a sin and that many men are ruined by it and much misery brought upon their innocent families; It is also granted that gambling hells are as attractive and seductive as saloons are. and many men are induced to enter therein aud participate. It is also granted that those who run these hells, “the bankers,” make great profit therefrom. All this granted, ami being so similar to the arguments against the barrooms and in favor of the dispensary, it strikes us that ti e State had better take charge of the gambling business and run it on a high moral plane?—so called—and thereby derive much profit to the State. There would be as many “good” men anxious to run | those reformed hells for the benefit i of the State and a good salary. A Social Event. The young folks hud a most de-j Jlghtfiil gathering at Mrs. 11. C. Law’s on last Friday night. There was a good deal of dancing, but it whs of the kind represented by a square and not by a circle. The following were those present: Misses Martini .Stan ley, Mattie Heardn, Lizzie Rast, Nel lie McCullough, Louise Williamson, Louise Ward, Mabel Odiorne, Fannie Gandy, Maggie Law, Blanche Law.

Montgomery, Emile Dargan, Archie Dargan, Jack Wat son, John Williamson, Harry Griffin, Arthur Griffin, Eugene McCown, Bert Alexander, Willie Kelly, Furser James, Willie James, Frank McCul lough, Junie Law, Evauder Gandy, Frank Parrott. Mr. Frank Pegues has a beautiful field of corn near the C. &. D. depot It is the first fine crop that we hare ever seen on that piece of ground. Dr. Parrott also has a very fine field planted in double rows. Nearly all the soil in the town is naturally good, and stating ibis reminds us of a remark made just after the war when cotton was very high, by an enthusiastic farmer, who said that ho would be glad to have the houses [and trees out of the way and convert I tl»t* *• iwle ylucv iuWttwUvu fivltl, Tillman Passes the Death Sentence Upon Prominent Reformers. The Columbia Journal, of Monday, claims to have discovered another blacklisting scheme, on th * part of Governor Tillman and his devoted adherents, in which it is proposed to slaughter Messrs. W. D. Evans, Townsend, Farhy, Norton, Roper, Blease and Nettles, and practically read them out of the reform ranks. If this report be true, then it shows very plainly that those who expect to keep on good terms w itli the Governor must tamely submit to his will and be but mere puppets in his hands, and of course must not venture to move or speak unless ho pulls the string and orders them to dance. To say the least they are very slow in waking up to the fact that Governor Tillman would tolerate no opposition, and if they are east adrift they have no one to blame except themselves. If their political aspirations are to be blasted by the frown of their polili- cal'master, they will then realize the supreme folly of joining in a move ment, the only excuse for which was the desire for power, and of placing themselves under the leadership of a man to whom gratitude, when it stands in the way of his ambition, is an unknown sentiment. In some respects this is only a family quarrel in which it is uot for ns to take sides, our principal object in calling atten tion to it being to point out the dis- astrious results to the State, that will surely follow if this kind of bitter political warfare is to continue. It is, however, but the legitimate out come of the methods pursued by Governor Tillman and his adherents, from the very beginning of their agitation, by boycotting all who would not endorse their slanders, ami; pended: now follow it up by blacklisting each! ‘ “This ceriitient. other.

The State Board of Control lias is sued a set of rules govrning the trans portation of liquor in this State that will not only prove interesting to the dealers, but individuals as well, as both are concerned in the rules. The rules in full are as follows: “The following regulations will govern public, carriers in handling liquor of all kinds, whether alcoholic, fermented or vinous, when offered for shipment into this State, or from point to point in the State, ami are based on ottr construction of the act of tlie General Assembly, approved December 24,1892 known as tile Dis pensary law: ‘Rule 1.

Small eppper coins are lost in such enormous numbers that the govern ment is obliged to keep ou coining cents at the rate of several millions of them every month. They change hands so often as to be subject to a multitude of accidents, and, owing to their small value, they are not taken care of.. This is no can-e of regret to Uncle Sam, inasmuch ns he buys the pennies in blank from a firm in Connecticut nt the rate of 2,000 for $1. On reaching the mint iu Philadelphia, whence all of them are issued, they have merely to be stamped. There are 110,000,000 old pennies somewhere. Nobody knows what has become of them, except that once in a while a single specimen turns up in change. A few years ago 4,500,000 bronze two-cent pieces 1 were set afloat. Three millions of them are still outstanding. Three million tbree-cent nickle pieces are scattered over the United States, but it is very rarely that one is seen.
