NATCRIIAY, JINK 5. I WOO.
We observe that the Augusta
Chronicle, like The News, has a
printer who insists on spelling
occasion with a superfluous "s".
Georgians learned at least one
lesson from the recent firemen's
strike: That it is possible to enforce
prohibition by stooping the
running of all trains.
The Philadelphian from whose
stomach a couple of silver spoons
were recently removed by a surgical
operation was probably one
of Beast Butler's camp followers.

A German scientist claims that
he has succeeded in making food
from air. Editors and niggers
may yet escape starvation. Hurry
up. dock, and let us have your
life-saving formula.
The natives of Africa call
Roosevelt "Bwano Turn bo,*'
which is said to mean, "Ross
with big stomach." It's doubtful
whether they have a word or
words expressive of the magnitude
of Teddy's monumental
grinders.
Senator Bailey and W. S. Manning
had a little fisticuff in the
hall of the senate the other day
and the papers are making great
things out of it. Why. such a
little matter as that is never noticed
in Chester.?Chester Lantern.
But it's a rare distinction in
the life of a congressman to have
the honor of engaging in a fight
with a newspaper man. J
Tom Foster, who seriously cut
Ed Hunnicutt near the intersection
of Caldwell and Seventeenth
streets late Monday night, will
lie tried in the Recorder's court

ing assault with a deadly weap-j
on. ?Charlotte Observer.
A fellow with wheels in his
head is not uncommon, but Hunnicutt's
is the first case on record
of a man's anatomy being traversed
by municipal thorough- j
fares.
North Carolina editors never j acquire
riches and few have such
favors thrust upon them. Welj
note one exception, in the person
of Mr. F. A. Moore, editor <
of The Goldsboro Argus, who re- j!
cently inherited $92,000 by the{
will of an uncle in New York, j,
Concord, N. C., Times. j j
Wonder if there are anv more
| <
such uncles lying around loose |
in New York or elsewhere.
Erskine College, on last Wednesday,
deservedly honored two '
of her distinguished alumni,
Chief Justice Ira B. Jones and.
Col. J. C. Hemphill, of the News
and Courier, by conferring upon (
them the degree of LL. I). Judge j |
Jones and Editor Hemphill were ,
meml>ers of the same class at (
Erskine. and both have certainly)
"made good" in an eminent degree
since graduation, reflecting ,
the highest credit op. their alma
mater.
We are triad t<> know that our
friend Connors of the Lancaster.,
News, is coming to the reunion
and we will try and get all of'
the wild onions out of the way
before that time. However, there!
will be so many other things;
here to see that he will never
know of the wild onions, anyway.
?Chester Lantern.
If you'll have Chester's famous
pretty girls out on dress parade
during the reunion you needn't
bother about eradicating your old
crop of onions. Nothing makes
a man oblivious to all surroundings
more effectually than the
sublime spectacle of a procession
, of fair femininity rigged out in 1
airy summer apparel, peekaboo \
nirtwaists, white skirts, dainty
-fords, #tc., etc.

The Crop Situation. ,.N
The heavy, protracted rains atayin'
this week have made the crop
situation indeed serious. The ?u
fields everywhere are saturated da' nij
with water and it will be several 1
