' ., , -o Florence h?s street cars. They made their first run last week. -o The State Dispensary will be - ready to fill the bill by the 1st of July. o It will take a powerful long pole to bring down the income . tax per simmon. . Hartsville, a little bit of a town in Darlington county, has a mat tress manufacturing company and a paper factory. -o Clemson College will open on the 6th of July. The trustees have not yet decided upon a president for the institution. -o Two car loads ot melons were shipped from South Georgia on Monday, the first of the year ; one averaging 20 pounds sold for $250 on the track. The dreaded cholera has again made its appearance in Europe ; in fact, it has never entirely dis appeared, but has claimed victims . in the far East until its recent move Westward. -o Edwin Booth, the great trage dian, died irf'New York on June ,7th, aged sixty. He was the younger brother of the actor John Wilkes Booth, who shot President Lincoln in/65. It is said that when Benjamin Franklin proposed to start, a news paper his mother tried to dissuade him from it, because she said-there were already two papers in Amer ica and there was no room for an other. -o " Gen. John B. Gordon has, at the solicitation of many prominent men in that city, consented to de liver a lecture in New York, "founded on the closing days of the Confedeiacy. and his persona^ estimate of the two grea^Captains, Grant and Lee." -.-o LaBt week Judge Kershaw held his last court at Camden, having resigned the position on the bench he filled so ably. Judge Gary, on whom his mantle falls, has already received many enconiums from the press for the dignity and ability he displays as a presiding officer. -o Hoke Smith's ruling by v which fifteen millions per annum will be saved the government in pensions, places-him high up on the list of practical statesmen, and there is nothing strained in the construc tion of the law either. The ruling seems to be perfectly legitimate, --o Newberry is now in the. throes of a primary election to fill the vacancy in the State Senate made by the resignation of Rev. J. A. Sligh. Dr. C. T. Wyche, of Pros perity, is the candidate of the re formers and Geo. S. Mower, of the Newberry bar, of the Conserva tives. Aiken county was seriously dam aged by the recent rains. The "Times says ,{in nonie*instances every vestige of the growing crops has been washed from the ground. Farmers report the outlook, espe cially for cotton, very unpromis ing, and worse than for many years past. The Greenville News thinks that President Cleveland and Senator Butler are mighty close to the Greenville News idea expressed some months ago-a direct divi sion of the Federal offices for this State between the factions so as to restore good will and unity te the party. The head cook of Hotel Waldorf, in New York, receives $10,000 a year. He has a staff of thirty three male understudies and an army of female assistants and other attendants that bring his retinue up to one hundred persons. He is expected to be able to turn out four thousand meals a day. -o The News and Courier's criti cisms of the Ocalaites for not sus taining the Democratic platform will not have proper influence as long as that paper repudiates the plank recommending the repeal of the tax on State bank notes. Ex ample is a darned sight better than precept.-The State. There is no possible objection to abusing the Nows and Courier as she deserves, but please don't cuss ?J The whiskey men of Cheraw and Darlington want to swap liquor for cotton seed. -o Chief Justice Fuller has decided that the World's Fair shall be kept open on Sundays. The board bill of the Duke of Veragua and party at Chicago for six weeks amounted to over $9,000. Banks continue to break all over country, and some wise finan ciers predict a crash this fall that will shake the nation. -o What difference does it make if a silver dollar is worth only 65 ! cents since it will buy 100 cents I worth of meat, or flour, or sugar? -o The government has decided to send the West Toint cadets to the World's Fair, to be on the grounds from about the middle of | August to the first of September. -o The Pope has announced the beatification of Jeanne D' Arc, known as the Maid of Orleans. Canonization, the final dGcree, by which the name of a deceased per son is placed in the catalogue of j saints, is expected to follow soon. -o The Columbia board of trade I has passed resolutions advocating! the repeal of tho Sherman Silver | [ law, and a repeal of the tax on State banks. We infer also from the spirit and phraseology of these resolutions, that the board of trade is opposed to the free coinage of silver. -o The superstitiously inclined j might as well drop that idea about Friday being an unlucky day. It is now. discovered that Columbus started on his world finding voyage on Friday and actually sighted land on Friday. Certainly Friday was not an unlucky day for Chrisp topher. -o Some men who were digging a well at Live Oak, Florida, found about ten feet below the surface of the ground a tree that was petrified only on the outside. The irunk was split open and the inside was found to be filled with honey which had been shut up in the tree for many years. * ?--o Judge Witherspoon has decided j a case of importance in Columbia. iTe'ho'ds that although,a woman may be divorced from her husband by the Jaws of another State, that it is necessary for her to sign the dower in sala of real estate in this State belonging to the husband from whom she is divorced. -o The trustees of Clemson College had a meeting on last Thursday for the purpose of electing a presi dent, but failed to agree upon a suitable person. There were a half dozen applicants. Prof. Stonow?ll Tompkins, of Virginia, was elected assistant professor of the me chanical department. Mr. J. F. Moncreath, of Abbevil'e, tutor of mathematics. The board will fur nish a prospectus to any one apply ing for same. This prospectus gives all the facts as to courses of study, cost, etc. THEY ARE ALL RIGHT. The New York World, in re sponse to circular letters sent to I members of Congress asking their views on the repeal of the Sher man silver law, the income tax, and the tax on State banks, has received the following replies from five of the representatives of this j State : Senator Butler says : "I would | jte for the repeal of the Sherman silver law coupled with the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on State bank circulation; not otherwise. I am in favor of an income tax. 1 am in favor of the rep?al of the 10 per cent, tax on State bank cir culation." Representative Latimer says : "I will oppose the repeal (of the Sherman law) unless silver is re monetized. I favor an income tax. I I may favor the repeal of the 10 per cent. State bank tax if proper restrictions are proposed in the) bill." Representative Shell says: "I am- opposed to the repeal of the Sherman silver law. I favor the repeal of the State bank tax." Representative Strait says: "Il do not favor the repeal of the Sher man law unless on the substitute of the free and unlimited coinage of silver. I favor a graduated in come tax and a repeal of the tax on State banks." . Representative Brawley says : "I favor the repeal of the Sherman law and the State bank tax. Am inclined to favor an income tax." Merchant (to applicant)-"Do you think you know enough to as sist me in the office?" Boy-"Kuow enough. Why, I left my last place because the boss said I knew more than he did." OUR RICHEST NEGRO. Death of Amanda Toomer, Who Inherited Old David Dick son's Money. Augusta Evening News. Mrs. Amanda Dickson of Au gusta, who less than a year ago married Nathan Toomer, a colored lawyer of Perry, Ga., and who bore the national distinction of being the wealthiest colored woman in Georgia, if not in the country, died quite suddenly at her handsome home, 452 Telfair street,, at 5 o'clock yesterday morning. She only returned to the city last Friday, from Baltimore, where she had been for a month for her health. She has been a patient sufferer from rheumatism for some time and only recently received per manent relief from acute pains, but of late she has endured an at tack of nervous prostration which superinduced her death. On her return from Baltimore she secured accommodations in the Pullman car for Augusta, but at Columbia, the sleeper was side tracked and she had to remain in the city on the Ccngaree a day and the delay made her more nervous and her condition grew worse, and she was brought home from there under the care of Dr. Kendall, who accompanied her to Augusta. Mrs. Toomer was 43 years old. and she leaves two sons, Julian Dickson, who married George Wal ton's daughter, and Charlie Dick son, who married Bishop Holsey's daughter. Her mother, Julia F. Dickson, survives her also. Amanda Diekson Toomer ac quired her wealth from her father, Mr. David. Dickson, who was one of the wealthiest/armers of Han cock county, and who left his estate to Amanda, his natural daughter. There was a big fight over the will, brought by the relatives of Mr. Dickson, but after a legal con test the case was decided in favor of Amanda, who received $487,000. Amanda died intestate, but ac cording to the will by which she received her fortune, at her death each of her sons are to receive $100,000 each, and the remainder she had the right to dispose of as she chose. As she died withert making a will, her sons will come in for a greater share of their mothe's es tate, and it is believed her hus band-will come in for a part of the; estate, which is now estimated to be worth half a million dollars. Amanda, though in the posses sion of such riches, made no gaudy display, but lived a quiet, easy, and unpretending life. She was kind hearted, generous, and charitable, and her benevolent work was in deep!, extensive. She was a member of the Trinity colored Methodist church and will be buried from her late residence at four o'clock this afternoon by her pastor, Rev. Williams. The body will be interred in the handsomest casket that has ever been brought to Augusta, and it" is lined with mouse-colored silk and plush. Original of a Famous Hymn, j Pickens Sentinel. It is well known that the hymn> "Hold the Fort" was inspired by the story of the signals exchanged by Gens. Sherman and Corse when the latter was besieged at Atlanta, Ga., but few know how the idea was brought to Mr. Moody's mind. The Boston Globe says that once when Gen. and Mrs. Corse lived in Chicago Mr. Moody called. While there he took up a book that told the story of that famous conflict in which Corse had been so badly wounded, and seeing the message from Gen. Sherman, "Hold the fort I for I am coming I" exclaim ed enthusiastically : "What a mag nificent motto that would be for a marching song for the ~:my of Christ." And the day after the famous hymn was written, begin ning with "Hold the fort, for I am coming, cBsus signals still," a hymn that has been sung almost in every hamlet on the continent, and whose strains across the ocean have becomo familiar to the ears of men who never heard of Gen. Corse or the beleaguered men at Al toona. While on a visit to Pendleton and Fort Hill week before last we visited the old stone church which has perhaps the largest grave yard in the up country. Here we saw for the first time the grave of a lady who Vv-as buried on top of the sarth. Some brick had been laid on the ground and cemented and the coffin set on it and an arch of brick built over it. Here too we saw the first tombstone to a live man's grave. In other words a man who is now living has his tomb stone sitting up at the place where he intends to be buried. His name, age, and an inscription is cut on the stone, and a blank place left for his death. It is said that others who are now buried there had their tombs put there before they died.-Pickens Sentinel. Tho gold dollar is a dishonest dollar, because the material from which it is made is so limited that it can easily be "cornered." Aud so long as men are dishonest and we are big enough fools to retain it as the standard of values, men will coru?r it and it will continue to be dishonest.-?Farmer's Trib ALL SORTS. "Mise Borden burned a light blue dress," will be set to music. The Memphis Appeal-Avalanche says the mint julep of South Caro lina has sought some deep seclud ed glen, far from the maddening crowd's ignoble strife. A man may own tho whole world, but when dogs growl at his shadow, widows shudder at his coming, and men curse and point the finger of scorn at him, what does his wealth profit him ? MessrB. J. R. Allen and John C. Reeves, of Allendale are record breakers this year. On the 14th each plucked a cotton bloom, several days ahead of other years and out of sight of the rest of the state.-Barnwell People. The Alliance Tidings says that there is more danger from the fools in the reform ranks than there is from the rascals. That the rascals could do but little damage if it were not for the fools who persist in following them. The London Times says that in face of all that may be said to the contrary we have the undonbted fact that the consumption of drink in Sweden and Norway has fallen off enormously since the Gotthen burg system was introduced. Ratio and parity be blowedl Quit throwing dust in tho eyes of the people. Put the government, stamp on tin, as is done on nickel, and it ought to be as valuable,for currency as the paper money issned by the government.-Augusta Chronicle. The Barnwell cotton seel oil mill property was bougbt.at private salo on Monday for $15,000 by Van Winkle, of Atlanta Ga., re presenting a syndicate. The new owners, will, we are told, have the mill put in first-clas3 condition for the fall trade of ginning and oil making. While Sam Jones was in Dallas a reporter quoted him as saying that no one could send himany thing which he would appreciate more than buttermilk, and the next day every good old sister in town sent in from a quart to a gallon until he thought the whole of human kindness had turned to buttermilk. General John B. Gorden, the distinguished Georgia statesman, and soldier, has- consented'to ae liver an address to the survivors pf the Sixth South Carolina cavalry. A reunion of the survivors of this regiment will be held at Green wood on the Fourth of July and the survivors poopose to gather from all parts of tne state. There will be a big barbecue. Every old veteran tbat can should attend. The Augusta Chronicle under the caption, "What is Money," says: Money, then5 is whatever the government adopts as a full legal tender in payment of all debts within its jurisdiction. This is true of the past but if the government should "adopt" all the old tin cans and sardine boxes in the country as money, the theory of our contemporary wouldn't hold water any more than would the cans. Mrs. Frank Leslie says the greatest treuble about he: divorced husband was his voice. "It was loud enough ordinarily," she says, "but when he had been imbibing too freely it roue to a roar, and he made me ashamed and everybody else tired at his vociferation. He used to abuse me for my 'damned Americanisms' in a voice that could be heard a block away, and people wondered that I never answered him. They gave mo credit for too much meekness of spirit, for I al way B answered him with the most awfully sarcastic remarks, only I made them in so low and so ladylike a lone that no one but Mr. Wilde could hear me." It requires no gift of clairvoy ance to see that at least one mem ber of President Cleveland's cabi net is working to secure the demo cratic nomination in 1896. That man is Secretary Carlisle. In the first place it was not to be expected that a man like Carlisle would leave the senate unless the place was made peculiary atti active. Even politicians of Carlisle's tem perament are not actuated by a sense of duty so far as to give up a congenial place in the senate for the trying requirements of a cabi net office under Cleveland, who maintains the authority of a master It has been surmised, and the sur mise was probably true, that Car lisle was induced to take a cabinet place by an arrangement in which President Cleveland promised him the support of the administration in the contest for the next nomina tion for the presidency. Having ambitions for the presidency and having the chance to secure the retiring administration's support, it is not so strange that Carlisle consented to leave the senate. Hartford Post. 0R.
