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

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

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.

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.

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

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

CLEMSON EXTENSION WORK.
Glanders.
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,"

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.
