S % T Cholera in Russia- t( Asiatic cholera has broken out in Russia ii again and is fast spreading over the p empire. At the end of July there were C 15,000 cases and about 40 per cent were fatal. b The cholera is a terrible disease. It p gives no warning. It does Its work c< quickly. There is no pain and yet a tl cholera cadaver has every appearance of n having endured excruciating rxgony. In ji Infected countries cholera is a word to conjure .with. It spreads over the land like a pall, like the shadow of some horrible eclipse. Men's faces wear a peculiar sinister expression when cholera stalks tl abroad In the land. It fills the atmosphere, li It paralyzes business. It is an awful, d V dreadful disease. ' a Poe must have had cholera in mind b when he wrote the Mask of Red Death. Nothing could suggest more mortal hor- v; ror and cold sweat than cholera. ^ 'Yet it is a disease that is curable and h preventable. Cholera is a bug. Unless you get the bug you will not have the w cholera. . Ifthp fhnloro r>oHar>f /?or> ? oeive medical attention at once he stands ? a good chance for recovery. One reason l* the cholera is so fatal in some countries w is that the people do not have medical p assistance when they become ill. If you tl should have to send 20 or 30 miles for a T doctor in a cholera case, it were just ae w ty' well not to send. is We fear cholera on account of its epi- si demic form, on account of its terrible a fatality, on account of its reputation afe a g horrible disease, and yet we here and now a have with us, in our midst, everywhere o around us, a disease more dangerous, b more fatal, harder to stamp out than cholera or any other disease, and that is, l? consumption, the Great White Plague. e| Our teeth would chatter if the papers w should announce to morrow that cholera & was about to sweep over the United States si or that BubO aic Plague would be spread over the country (and there is a possibility b of this being .done) and yet we do not c' give one thought to the Great White Plague. Strange, isn't it? a ?r The Shooting of Mayor Qaynor Mayor Gaynor, Mayor of the city of w ' New York was seriously shot while em- ai 'barking for Europe. The man who did cl the cowardly act was a disgruntled poll- ii ticlan who had been turned out of office S' by the Mayor. The man who did the shooting proved by his. act that , the Mayor was right in turning him out of office, for no man is ? .fit for a public trust who has no more ^ self control than has this Individual. He belongs in the class with Charles c( Guiteau, Booth, and Czolgotz. We know n nothing about the circumstances of this man's expulsion from office but we w warrant the Mayor had good reason for doing so. h . / ? ? u Honored Guest. h Vi Rev. Oliver Johnson, pastor of the A. n R. P. Church in Winnsboro, was in Abbeville yesterday where a number of friends were glad to greet him. He is one of the ablest men in the Synod, and his ability for good is not measured in words, Being .a zealous churchman his influence for . ! good will be as extensive as his acquaintance. 0] w The State Should Insure Lives and d Property. & The Columbia Record In writing of w ' "Little Known Facts of Well Known Car1 olinians." savs of On? <?f AhhOfNlo'o n!H Kens: "Hugh Wilson, editor of the Abbeville Press and Banner, stands for the cryptic utterance that he 'Is a democrat, and al- ? though he has often criticized his own a party and always regards it his public d duty to vote for the best man available, ^ he has ever maintained his party allegi- " ance.' ? Mr. Wilson believes that the state tl . should Insure the lives and property of its citizens at the usual rates, being convinced ? *. that by this means it would secure a revenue sufficient to meet the entire ex- 4 pense of the government." The Record Is always able and it would I always be fair. Its interest in the Dublic welfare Is not exceeded by any newspaper * or any man in the State. Let us then i hope that the Record may approve the plan, of putting big money into the treas- H ury of the State by insuring the lives and i the property of its citizens. 1 Enlarged Foundry. i Mr. W.

Speed. fc , ''> jig the Boy's Corn Club The members of the Abbe vile County ova Corn Club are sawing wood and tying nothing. Each one is after a rize, and each one deserves a prize, too. It is understood that there will be a umber of prizes. And here the Press and anner will open the ball. We will give tie year's subscription for the best yield i?r acre. We will also give one year's nbscription to the boy making the l>est xhibit at the County Fair which takes lace in Abbeville on the 18th, lHth, and )th of October. We will also give one ear's subscription to the boy who has lanted the largest acreage. There is more corn planted in Abbeville Guilty this year than has ever been lanted in any one year before. This is ue largely to the impetus given cornrowing by tiie Boys' Clubs. If a boy can lake 100 bushels of corn on one acre then tiere is no use planting one acre and laking r> or 10 bushels on it as we have een doing from time immemorial. The Superintendent of Education, Mr. . Foster Hammond, is at the head of the orn Club and any one caring to offer a rlze will confer a favor on the county by inferring with him. The boys who are contending for the rises are doing well. Somo have seen tie corn and they say it is line. Each patch will have to be measured nd the corn weighed before it will be nown who comes out ahead in the con5St. Those offering prizes are allowed to ffer a prize for any feature of the contest rhich they may desire to emphasize, ome one should offer a prfte for the best ar, or for tho best seed. Most of us are K) careless as to the kind of seed we put 1 the ground. Some one should offer a rize for the best meal made in Abbeville ounty from contest corn. There are scores of things which should e emphasized and it is hoped that our eople may interest themselves In the ?ntest enough to offer a lot of prizes and ius encourage an enterprise that will do lore for the county than any other agency jst now. ? ? ?-?tAbbeville Water Supply Infected The last analysis of city water shows iiat our supply of drinking water is polted with bugs. What kind of bugs we o not know buf the water is wiggling nd wriggling with millions of bugs- bad ugs. The people of the city are boiling their ater. Some are getting their water from ells. Some are cleaning out wells that ave been discarded. Manv are inclined to condemn branch ater as a source of water supply, but as matter of fact branch water is just as ood as any water provided it does not acome contaminated. If the branch hence we get our water supply had been roperly looked after it is hard to see how le supply could become contaminated, he sun has a fair chance at the branch here our water comes from and sunlight i the greatest germicide known. Sunhine kills more bugs than any other gency In the world. If the weeds and rass has been cut down along the branch nd if pure sand has been used in flllering ur water it is hard to see how it could ecome poisoned. It is well for us that our Board of Health j alert or else we might have had an pidemic of fever. Instances have occured here entire towns were down with fever, a to speak, from a contaminated water apply. There are some who do not believe in ugs that they cannot see. Such, of )urse, can only learn by experience. The Board of Health is busy with the latter and it is hoped that they will soon et a negative analysis of the water ipply. There is no use for us to condemn creek ater. Creek water is just as good as ?y water. What we should do i^ to ean up the creek, keep all contaminating ifluences away, and keep the creek clean, unlight and oxygen will do the rest. Confederates in Spartanburg. The Confederate reunion is now in full last in Spartanburg:, where the people ad made ample arrangements for the ospitable treatment of all who might jme. These annual reunions are reilnders of the days that tried men's souls, nd the participants in the struggle are orthy of the honor and the affection hjch are bestowed upon them. It is oped that these re-unions may bo kept p for years yet to come. Among the onored veterans and valorous ^oldiers 'ho went yesterday from Abbeville, we ote the names of: H. W. Bowie T. J. Bo wen.

If your horse or inule has glanders, or if any of your animals aro sick or dying I with what appears to lie a contagious dis-1 ease, it. is your privilege and duty to notify the veterinarian at Cleiiison College who will visit your place without expense to you. Glanders is eaused by a spec.ith; germ (Bacillus Mallei) and affects horse.1?, asses and mules. The goat, cat and dog sometimes contract the disease from living in stables with glandered animals. 1'igs may contract the disease by inoculation. Cattle and chickens are immune. The disease attacks the mucous membrane of the nose ,'.nd extends to the wind pipe and lungs. When the lymphatic glands of the surface of the body are affected, the disease is known as farcy. The disease is transmitted to other animals, including man, by inoculation through wounds or mucous membranes. There are other ways in which animals may be affected such as common drinking troughs, feed boxes, mangers, hitch racks, harness and any equipment used around an infected stable. Symptoms: Glanders may occur in the acute or chronic form, or may attack the surface of the body in the form of farcy. The acute form of glanders begins with a chill, high fever, the mucous membrane of the nose is at first hot and dry, and soon there is a watery discharge, which later becomes bloody. Nodules and ulcers form on the mucous membrane of the nose and discharge pus. These changes in the nose may take place in two or three days. The patients become very weak and rapidly lose llesh. The first symptoms of chronic glanders aro not easily recognized owing to the absence of distinct symptoms in the first stages of the disease. First you will notice a watery discharge from one or both nostrils, which later on becomes sticky and of a yellowish green colored pus mixed with blood coming from ulcers on the inside of the noso. When glanders affects the skin, it is called farcy. One of the main symptoms may be the swelling of the joint with engorgement of the limb and nodules may form along the line of the lymphatics. Theso nodules vary in size from a pea to a hen's egg and have a tendency to soften and discharge pus, tjfter which they heal rapidly. Other nodules may form following the same course as the previous ones. Prevention: All glandered animals should be immediately destroyed, and not allowed to come in contact with healthy animals through stables, common drinking troughs, harness or any other stable equipment. All suspicious animals should be isolated until examined by a competent veterinarian. Infected buildings should be thoroughly disinfected with a live per cent, carbolic acid solution or a one to five hundred corrosive sublimate solution. Then all wood work should be white washed. In doubtful cases of glanders, the mallein test is given. This test should only be given by a qualified veterinarian and until it is determined whether a suspicious case is or is not glanders, the animal should be kept apart from all other animals. Remember that the disease is occasionally transmitted to the human and is incurable in man or beast. It. 0. Feoley," Clemson College. LOWNDESVILLE. Happenings of a Week In and About the Seven-Hilled City?Personals. Lowndc6ville, Aug. 15th, HDIO. Hon. W. N. Graydon, of Abbeville, Candida to for the State Senate was in this place Tuesday, calling on his friends and forming new acquaintances. Misses Mabel and Margie Johnson, of Chester, came here last Tuesday and were with friends and relatives for a day or two. Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Lomax and little babe of Marion, came hdre yesterday was a week ago, and have since been with loved ones at this the old home of the first, who is taking a needed rest. Mr. John Power, of Wilmington, N. C., another Lowndesville boy, came hero Monday and spent a day or two. Mrs. A. J. Speer and her two children went to Cornelia, Ga., her old home on Monday to remain there for several weeks A protracted meeting began in Providence church (this place) Tuesday at 11 a. in. with two services a day, the one at thai hour, the other at 8 p. m. These services were conducted by lie v. J. D. Fleming, evangelist of the Augusta Presbytery. He was favored with large crowds of attentive listeners, who highly valued his impressive and instructive sermons. They were given much to think about, and doubtless were profited thereby. The meeting closed last night. Quite a nice little crowd of people who were passing through this place Tuesday stopped here a while, when It was learned it was Mr. Dave Gilliam and family, of Warren ton, who were on their way to a mountain outing trip. A two horso carriage, with three couples in it, a two mule buggy with Mr. and Mrs. Gilliam and a irmlo vrnrrnn f-ftH.ni lORflcd wit,!) fiverv thing needed in u camping: out outdt. Every one who lias taken a trip of that kind can much better form an idea of the pleasures of it than can be described. Rev. R. W. Humphries went up Tuesday to Seneca to help the pastor, Rev. J. L. Singleton, in a several days meeting; came back Saturday. The arrival of last week's county papers somewhat changed the peculiar conditions political as to legislative aspirants in this county. Up to that time it looked as il there "were only three men in the county with moral courage enough to offer to represent the proud old county in its House of Representatives. The announcements made in last week's papers complicates matters very much. It seemed as if the three then named would have an easy walk over?no promises to make to secure votes out of which candidates sometimes and in some places (such things have been heard of) have had tocrawJish and wriggle out of. Mrs. 0. M. Abney, of Springfield, is the ! guest of Dr. T. 0. Kirkpatrick and family ; and has been since the first of last week." Miss .famine mn, 01 au^usou, w., t-uuiv up Friday and has since been with the family of Mr. T. D. Cooley. A good rain was given to us in this section Saturday evening. Mr. D. L. Barnes, who several weeks ago went to Anderson, went into the hospital and had an operation performed, so far regained his usual health as to come back to his home here the latter part of last week, which we are glad to report as ho was for some days in a critical condition. On Saturday a large number of the colored people met near here to enjoy the pleasures of a picnic. Everything moved along quietly and peacefully till near its close, when the tide changed from an era of good feeling and peace to one of war to the knife fend pistol. Mann Hunter, from accounts, was the ringleader, had a bullet hole through his head just under his eye through his jaw bone, and Henry Johnson, his wife and son-in-law, and twy others, pretty badly cut. First named did the cutting, but who did the shooting? That is to I be decided. Dr. J. D. Wilson was called in and gave the wounded, the necessary attention, in dressing, patches and stitches. At last accounts those receiving lead and steel were doing as well as could be expected. Troupe. No Escape. iKnoxville Journal and Tribune.)
