Durst ?t Co. are adding a foot extension to their stores. Kev. Mr. 1'lowden preached in the Presbyterian church Sunday. Work on th*> Baptist parsonage will becominencvd this week. Waving occasion to he absent from town one day, Keenly l.ailey appointed Messrs. Coleman aDd Plowden to attend to his business; when he returned lie says they hadn't doDe a single thing. We can't get our Sunday mails now until 5p.?n. The postmaster does not open them. The next two years above all others will requiie clo>e figuring and good finaucerlog in our county finances to get through and pay lip the present detlcit, with anything like a reasonable levy. There is one man in the oeunty who, as commissioner, has done it more than once in the past; his record is known to all and is as clear as a noonday's sun. The times demand and the people t-hould ask his services, he enjoys the conli deuce ami respect ot both factions pre-emnently above any other mat) in the county; his name as chairman of tii?* board is equivalent to a low assessment, economic and judicious expenditures, line roads and good bridges. That man is ('apt. G. M. Matlison, every mat: in tlie county knows his lace, his name, his record and where lie lives.

I am reliably infoi med that the leading Tillmaniles are saying to the tenants ot antiTillman landlords who are disposed to vote for Sheppard, "don't do il, if > oil do it is evidence that jou are under the control of a master."

To His Excellency tlie Governor of South Carolina: Dkai! siis?My reference to your campaign speeches In 1S!KI it. will be seen that you tli**u professed an uhhoranee of lynch law and promised to do all In your power to break up the practice in this State. Von have doubtless read in the public prints that the sroou people of Spartanburg were re-1 centty strongly provoked to ineie summary ' punishment upon a confessed murderer. You | have doubtless been further informed that lor the sake of t he good name of t he State. In the interest of law and order, the best friends of the murdered man whocanghttlie murderer turned him over to the legally constituted authorities, which act we have reason to believe would have been possible in no other ptrt of the territory over wiiicli your jurisdiction extend*. Since these events you have made several public speeches and we have anxiously waited to see il you have the manhood, the justice, the decency to apologize to the people of a county you recently so vilely slandered t?y characterizing I>piiruimiui|; ii iL-puuntau I county. Once more you disappointed the. reasonable expectations of your friends; once mure you have proved you are not a Hi representative of the lnw-abidlng people oi thin country. The point upon which we are In doubt, however, is whether the (act that your record ' In otliee in this particular is no flagrantly at variance with tlie promises you made to get oftice, is premeditated or due 10 the natal m-| stincts ol your nature to promise one thing ] and-do another. What we desire to know most is your ap- ' point men t of the most notorious lyncher of ' the most inlamous lynching to a high stale ' otlice. your repeated declaration of willing- } ness in certain emergencies to lead a lynch- , ii g party, your failure to commend this peo pie whom you have wantonly traduced be taken as h deliberate changeof inind towards ' lynching, or is it your way of doing business. Your reply, If vou or your friends deign to ] make one, will be cheerfully published by 1 the Spartanburg Daily Herald. The hot. spell was broken by a copious rain . Sunday nignt accompanied by considerable ' thunder ami lightning during which Bailey Kiugh.an inoffensive colored Baptist preach- 1 er of tins place, was instantly killed. He ] and Bob Creswell had cone to the (J., 0. & N. train to meet Dr. White, a Baptist divine of I Augusta. After the arrival of the train the 1 three took refuge on the piazza of Mr. 1). J. Itay burn's store. The store was struck and Klugh killed as above stated. The other two ' were kuockcd senseless, and probably fatally J injured. Dr. White was sent to his home on 1 a maltrass by the early train Monday morniug. The damage to thestore was slight. S. 1 DEI.AVEA NEWS IltON I.OWXOKS. 1 VII.I.K.

Dr. J. ii. Muscley was elected chairman and Air. J. H. Franks secretary. The first business before the meeting was some resolutions Introduced by J.

Tlie.v were endorsed heartily by pros and j antis, which gave promise of a very harmonious, We'll see. Mr. C.T. linker went to Anderson Monday to join a lulling excursion of several days to Savannah Iitver. ltev. J. S. l'orter went to Ml. Cartnel Mon- t day to assist the Uev. W. H.

I A Missionary Mass Meeting was held in the .1 Baptist church Monday night. The Uev. K. * .1. Forester of Greenwood and Rev. Ii. D. B Hawkins of Honea I'aih delivered very Interesting lectures on the missionary cause tO T a crowded house. t Quite a number of people came In Tuesday x to oe ready for the meeting Wednesday. t Farly Wednesday morning the people began to come In, which gave promise of a very , large crowd, but judges estimated it as very j much below the one assembled here at the campaign meeting in 1888. I As our last meeting was the first county , meeting in this campaign it seemed to be -\ tlm mn i nf tl>fi TiI liminites as well iis nulls that It should he a quiet orderly harmonious one. as it would give more or less tone and coloring to tho^e to ! Ilow. Among the resolutions adopted at the Saturday meeting was to tills ell'eet, that evi ry one of botii tactions should exert themselves and use their influence to keep order, <frc. A police lorce ol ten or twelve was appointed, and sworn in hy the Town council. Any one present would he allowed to ask any question provided they submitted it in writing, and handed it to the chairman who would at the close of each speech hand to the speaker. Kvery thing moved on as pleasantly as could he desired u lille the Tillman candidates were speaking, as tiie anils had endorsed the resolution in good faith, wiihout any mental resevtatloti. and they had too much self respect to falsify their word, but when Col, \V. (', Mc(iowan was introduced a marked change , took place, several begun ut once to ply lilin | with oral questions and some of which were , entirely irrelevent, and insulting remarks were made. The chairman told the parties , it they wanted to ask questions to write them < down and they would be answered?no attention was paid to it. lie then told the speaker , to take no notice of them. This, under the eircuinstances, outrageous conduct excited , the antis very much. Some of the leading , Tlllmaultes, those w ho have more inlluence j than all the others combined, were approach- ( ed by some of the antis and requested to put ] a stop to it, and they were met with the plea ( that they had nothing at all to do with it. | The o lsturbance being continued coupled with the above declaration enraged the already exeited antis, and had it not been for some cool lu ads among them, a big fuss might have , been tin* result. i Allss Mary C.

In ruminating,as Hill Arj> would say, upon the condition oI aliairs in our country, condition 01 our people politically, tloancially, socially and morally, reached this conclusion : That there are three evils prevalent In our land which are very prominent in reducj ir.% our people to corruption, poverty, degradation. viz: puir, pri<ie and prejudice. II there ever was a time when judgment, discretion and sound common sense should exert and asMrt themselves, this Is certainly the time.

There has been a protracted meeting in prorress at Midway (liaptisi) during the past week. As to Its success cannot say, but If it lias been like a great many such meetings litis as well as other election years, the results liave not been such, as could have been desired. When an election is on nearly everything else Is oil'. Some of the newspapers and many of the would-be statesman are trying very hard to make people believe that the antis "have ilrawn the lines," and on that account, the pros are forced to do It. Well low. we think Ihe lines were drawn by the March Convention of IKiiO, and have been gradually lightening ever since till now when many of the Tlllnianites do not think that the antls have any rights whatever, civil, political or religious. Well it is a well-known fact that there is a limit to which pressure upon a Hue, however, strong. There was a hog skinner (I reckon that is true, as he said so) at the political meeting here ou the UTth ult. ile also said that, hu might be a sheep skinner later on. That's human nature. One downward step begets a desire for another, and soon the perpetrator lands in the State's boarding house on the Congaree.

[ A Respected ISupfist Prenelier Gives ! InU'roitiii;' lacls, ami .Knkeit a ' Good SusccsUoii as to Celebrating1 J an Important Kvcrtt. , Two or three yearsago the Southern Baptist,' j Convention, like other Baptist associations of the world, resolved to celebrate In some llttlnir way the one hundredth year of organ- I ized mission work among the heathen In | modern times. In late years great achievements and dis- < uoverles In secular things are accorded notable anniversaries and centennials. Surely ( then thediscovery by Chrlstlansof the heath- . en world, and theell'orts for their salvation so ' abundantly blessed, should be celebrated ns j the most important of all events in these last t centuries. On Oct. 2,17SI2, the first of the great mission- 1 try societies was organized in Kettering, Eng- f land. Twelve Baptist preachers, young men . ind most of them little known even by Hie more prominent men of their own denomlna- ^ Lion, formed the "Baptist Society for l'ropa- t gating the Gospel among the Heathen." [ \\ IInam i,arey iinu i?r. jiimi i nomas wi-iu jut to Indians its missionaries the following 1 year. Thus was (he attention of all (,'lnis- | Inns soon turned to similar work in (lift <, Heathen world, ami tin; other societies ami boards so blessed in their labors (luring the ^ sentnry, were organized a Tew years later. t Some remarkable results of the mission rt'ork begun a iiundred years ago may be mentioned. When Carey went to India there H ivere not more than three Iiundred Christian J sonverts among the heathen; now there are . nearly a million. Then there were no Bible ranslations into heathen tongues; now more ban three hundred. Beginning with the tlrst n widely organized at Kettering, their number 7 aas reached more than l.'iO, through which J Ieven millions oi? dollars are contributed an- * tually. A hundred years ago nearly all c icathcn nations were closed against the goslie I; to-day the missionary of the cross may ? ?bor in any nart of the world. t In commeim.*ating the beginning of this a ivorlc .Southern Baptists propose to put on the oreign Held one hundred additional missionirles thin centennial year, and to contribute V it addition to their usual girts two Iiundred y md 11 fty thousand dollars for permanent ,vork, such as building churches and chapels, runslating and publishing the Scriptures, f fcc. In order to impress all tlie people with r lie Importance and needs ot this movement, md to inspire them with greater missionary . *enl In general, the convention recommended I hat meetings be held throughout every r Southern Slate, in the cities and towns, and , ilso In country places, so that as fur as possi- " ile every church member might be in reach of t) >ne of these meetings. a In most of the associations in South Caro- . lna, as in other Slates, meetings are being ar- * 'anged for and held. During t lie last of July 9 rour or live 01 u>e pastors01 mo A.uuevuie /\.siociatlon conduct id twelve all day meetings In different sections of the county, at which various mission subjects. both of general character and relating to the centennial were iiscussed. These meetings were well attended every where, and the discussions were listened to with marked attention. There is ev- | sry reason to believe that more interest in . lad larger and more general giving to mis- 1 <lons will be the result of these and all such t meetings in the communities where they are ; iicld. These efforts cannot fall of blessed re- . <ults il they bring Christian people into deep- J r and more practical sympathy with the I spirit and work of missions, for those are the , lieart and life of the religion of Christ. 1 J.

A Plain Girl. Said a voting friend to me the other day: "Ifl had only been born with good looks I might have been more attractive to people. Now, there's Alice Scott, she lias such beautiful eyes, and Hattie Barnes such a lovely complexion and Mamie Reed?well, her face is altogether perfect; but I am so plain, not one redeeming feature." I was just aboutto reply, when the girl laid her hand ftver my mouth and laughingly continued: "I know just what you are going to ?!iv ' H m n Hunmn is til Jit handsome ' and that is such an old proverb that it is worn tli read bare." "You are much mistaken," I interrupted "although it is true notwithstanding, Mias Saucebox, I was going to tell you about a lady I once had the pleasure of meeting. L was visiting a friend at one time who had a very large circle of acquaintances: wbereever we went I was sure to hear the name of a certain lady (Miss Rollins) mentioned, and everyone, strange to relate, had something to say in her favor?indeed, every one seemed to be quite carried away with her. "Naturally I was desirous of meeting so charming a creature, of whom I had drawn a mental picture. It is needless to say that I fancied her a great beauty. "One morning my friend and I were sitting on the veranda, reading, and 1 hearing the gate click, I looked up and saw a very plain-looking woman coming up the drive-way. With a beaming smile and delighted exclamation, my friend advanced to meet her and when greetings were exchanged she was brought forward to where I was sitting and introduced as Miss Rollins. ' Judge of my purprise. This plain, uuissuming woman?Miss Rollins! I 2ould not believe my eyes?but she smiled, and then her countenance was illumated. She spoke, and her voice 1 was music. For an hour I listened, al- , most entranced , and when our visitor jad cone I confessed mvself another Jevotee at her shrine." "But after all she was attractive?she lid have her charms," began my young riend. "I haven't finished, Miss Impetuosity," I answered. "I learned aferwards that when Miss Hollins was n her girlhood she spent so much time I retting over her plain looks that she J eally made herself very unattractive md unlovely; but it was her good forune to meet with one who urged her i o self-forgetfulness and a desire to J )lease and help others, and she soon c earned that a kind, thoughtful act, a s ympathetic word and a pleasant smile, c vent farther than mere beauty ofcounenance." t "But she couldn't change her voice," b till argued the girl. "Indeed she could, i diss Incredulous," I replied. "A voice ^ rained only to articulate the gentlest p .nd kindest of words unconsciously ;rows soft and musical in lone. Don't ^ou suppose that if Miss Rollins had ;ept 011 grieving and grumbling beause of the plainness of her features he would soon have cultivated a fretul and whining tone? And if gloomy ,nd peevish thoughts had been allow- , <J;to" rankle in her heart instead of the J vindsome smile there would have been cowls and wrinkles? "Ah, my dear! true beauty comes rom within if the heart is right; if >eace, contentment, and love dwell vithin it, they will reflect themselves ( n the countenance and brighten the ilainest features. So take my advice, s iccept the inevitable,Igive up thinking ibout your looks, do good and be good. , md in the end you will be happier ana J lave more friends than if you had t imply a pretty face. * , Lincoln's Only Kcasoii. Boston Herald. The late E. W. Kinsley used to reate the following passage of words be- )etween President Lincoln and Scereary Stanton which occured during an nterview Mr. Kinsley had with the President in regard to the feeling of ' \Iassachusutts on the issuance of the )roclamution of emancipation in 1863. While Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Kiusley ,vere talk.ng, a clerk opened the door 1 iiul i(1 thnr woniiin insisted unon seeing the President. Mr. Lincoln diected tliat she be admitted. A poor old woman, her clothes cling- i ng to her worn out frame, and with ' ears running down her olieeks, enter- ] id the room and asked Mr. Lincoln s for a pass, that she might go to nurse tier son, who was in a field hospital. * The President told her it was impossible ; that no pass could be given to my one outside the military. "Her grief" says Mr. Kinsley, "was pitiable" She pleaded with Mr. Lin- t join to be allowed to go and nurse her v. boy, till at last the President, every c muscle of his rugged face quivering 1 with emotion, turned to his desk, wrote a few lines, handed it to her, xnd said : 'There is your pass ; go to Secretary Stanton and get it counter- t signed.' 1 "The woman thankfully received [lie note and wituarew to tne secreta- f ry's quartet's. ' "Alter her departure Mr. Lincoln f leaned his head upon his hand, and in i tilcnce awaited the storm he knew would follow when Stanton had seen I what the missive was. He was not kept long in suspense. The door Hew j open, and ill came Stanton, greatly exalted. i ' "Mr. President,' he said, 'don'tyou < know that under no circumstances can :i pass he given to a civilian?why did you give a pass to this woman." "Quick as a flash came the answer : , 'Because she. don't wear hoops. Lin- i coin knew that he should not have given the pass, and that against Stan- [ ton's anger he could oppose no logical : dxcuso, so ho evaded it all with that irrelevant reply. The Secretary turned and lett the room without a word, hut the old woman got her pass." Tlie Whole Story It is natural to boys and girls to desire to know how a story "comes out." Theyjare not satisfied with an abrupt termination wlieu some good point is reached. A bright boy once heard the story of William Tell for the first time, and was very much interested in it. He followed eagerly the account of the shooting o.f the apple by Tell from his boy's head, and looked unsatisfied when the story came to a conclusion. "Well, go oil!" lie said. "But that's all the story." "How can it be?"exclaimed the boy. ^'You didn't tell who had the apple to eat!" ((round corn cobs are of benefit to milk cows that have a heavy grain ration.
