SENATOR AND NEWSPAPER IAN SCRAP. Joseph V. Bailey of Teias Ooce More Assumes the Rois of Bully. The spectacle of a Uuited States ^ Ser ' or, weighiug 220 pounds,about V' trs of ace, attacking a yonng ^^^Veighiug jast 130 pounds and lan half his age?was the scene e ed in the main lobby of the S ce late Thursday afternoon, May 27, when Senator Joseph Weldon Bailey of Texas made a vicious attack on William Sinkler Manning,of thp Washington sta5 of the New York Times. ^ Becoming angered by a publica- \ tion in the paper referred to concerning his connection with the income tax amendment,Senator Bailey declared the writer to be a liar. Later on Manning met Senator BaiA ley in the lobby of the Senate, and assured him that he was not the author of the article referred to. Bailey became angry and made a hinge at Manning,catching him by the throat and attempting to choke him. Manning, howerer, was game and broke the hold of the Texas Senator, who is powerfully built and is also very strong. After breaking the grip that Bailey had on him, Manning got in some good ones, and though ; at close range, did most of the hitting. He bears no marks of violence on his person except that his neck is somewhat red and swollen from Bailey'8 grasp upon him. After the combatants had been separated and Manning, who had an umbrella in his hand when Bailey attacked him, had picked it up off the floor, he said to Bailey, showing him how the umbrella had been bent; "This is the way you attack a gentleman and ruin a gooi umbrelja." With that Bailey made another frantic effort to knock Manning down. Several Senators then rushed in, and the trouble came to an end. Washington is discussing the affair as it has talked of nothing else in a long time. The shame of it is on Bailey,that a United States Senator, 1 -e i.: ?A should so lose concroi ui uiujbch ?uu J** * become so angered as to make an assault of this kind. Mr Manning is a son of R I Manning of Sumter. He went to Washington about a year ago from New York and became attached to the Washington office of the New York Times. Bareai if Iasilar A fairs. When the war with Spain threw unexpectedly upon us some two thousand islands and ten million inhabitants, it left in its trail possible problems equal to their product in number and complexity. One of the problems was the name to be giTen collectively to these acquisition^ to express their relationship to the United States. Certainly, if they * are ours, the term "possessions" is ooocct. Bat they are oars, in the I wards new likely to become immortal, "not to exploit, bat to develop, to oirilise, to educate, to tram in the *\ science of self-government." This , | give* a new meaning to "possessions" that makes it a satisfactory term J only when this limitation is lemem> bered. It is, moreover, a term difficult at times to use in expressing the existing relationship. The term "colonies7' is ofenaive to many, and from its normal meaning is even still farther from accuracy. Other terms are still more cumbersome or still less satisfactory; and this, therefore,must be regarded as a problem yet unsolved, and remembered when any of these terms are used in reference to the office through which the administrative control of these possessions is exercised.?Brig Gen G R Edwards,\Chief of Bureau, xu the National Magazine for June, The Tired Feeling is cured by Lippman's Great Remedy.

MIssNaoce to Wed. The bridegroom lucky and hap py in a coining notable marriage is, by blood and family ties, strictly an Edgefield boy. The writer of this has attained an age when all other men in the world are "boys" to him and the women "girls". This lucky bridegroom-elect is the Hon WmjL Daniel of Saluda, now representing Saluda county in our House of Representatives. Mr Daniel, a noble and able young fellow iu every respect, is a great-great grandson of that Revolutionary man, A Ctmbino fKo rrlar u uu^c auuui ^iuiaiuo) vuv ivuuuva of the town of Edgefield, whose honored ashes lie at old "Cedar Field." Mr Daniel is closely re. lated by blood to all our Simpkinses, Mobleys and Sheppards. He belongs now to Salnda, but he is an Edgefield boy, and Edgefield is proud of him. The bride-to be is Miss Mary T Nance of Cross Hill, Laurens; county, who in the last three or four years, despite her youth, has written 1 her name desp in South Carolina heart love and high on South Carolina's roll of usefulness and fame. Her noble work and altruistic services need no further words here.

Mr James T Bacon?to whom it | will be a work of pride and love? will go to play the wedding march, ! and to assist in the prayers and | smiles and good wishes and rice and j old shoes.?Edgefield Chronicle. Death ot V. J. Gamble. Mr W J Gamble is dead. It was hard to believe the news here, as he visited Kingstree only a short time ago and was apparently well and hearty and in the best of spirits. He died very suddenly Tuesday night, May 25, about 8 o'clock, sitting in a chair at the home of Mr Arthur Graham, near Heinemann, his death being due to heart failure. "Bee" Gamble, as he was generally called, was a well known figure about town. Al ways lively and cheerful he seemed the embodiment of good natured optimism. He was about 55 years old and had never married. He leaves one sister and one brother, Coroner R K Gamble; also two half brothers, Messrs J B and T D Gamble. The funeral and interment took place at Richmond Presbyterian church on Wednesday, May 26, at 5 p m, the services being conducted by Rev Mr Peeler. Mei Past Fifty la Danger. Men past middle life have found comfort and relief in Foley's Kidney Remedy,especially for enlarged prostrate gland, which is very common among elderly men. L E Morris, Dexter, Ky, writes: "Up to a year ago my father suffered from kidney and bladder trouble and several physicians pronounced it enlargement of the liter and advised an operation. On acooont of his age we were afraid he could not stand it and I recom mam P/vIaoIq \C i A nno Pnma/1 w UICUUCU X'VICJ o A^iuuvy AWUIWJ ) Mid the first bottle relieved him, and after taking the second bottle he was no longer troubled with this complaint" D 0 Scott. Killing weeds by spraying: To make the spraying solution, empty a hundred-pound sack of sulphate of iron into a fifty-ton barrel; fill to the chine with water and stir with a hoe for a few minutes until dissolved. Strain through several thicknesses!of cheesecloth tacked over manhole of the spraying machine. Apply with a powerful spraying machine, producing a real mist free from drops. Use about fifty gallons to the acre, and spray on a bright, warm day or on a dark, damp -day; it does not matter so long as rain does not come within eighteen or twenty hours. This spray will not harm grain crops, and will kill wild mustard and various other weeds. Never heard of anybody running the cultivator too much, except one man who was too busy cultivating to dig his wife's flower-beds for her. Cbarlty of tbe Craatry Editor. Did you eyer stop to think that a newspaper iu a charitable institution? There are, however, times 1 when the charity of the country editor seems to have been wasted on barren sod and on such occasions he is justified in refusing to again extend the same charity to the same persons who fail to appreciate his efforts. Such cases have come to almost every editor in his career. How many of them have sat up nights studying how to assist some candidate to land the office he is seeking? How many have spent * ? .T il column arier column 01 meir paper telling of the virtues of certain lodges, societies, churches or individuals in an effort to assist them over rough places in their journey? How many have donated space and advertising to th<v *.*ful accomplishment of 8( '.enterprise only lo have-' ' -h. 80Cf" i' enteipri8e obti^ : to \ ~ or to go -0 thv i their printing dt ! too often the case, and i <s I hard indeed to kill the cha...y of a ! country newspaper man, such a treatment is the snrest way to do so. Yes, the charity of the country editor for his fellows is surely great, but even this may be overworked and abused sometimes?Georqetoirn Item.
