Eds:efield Advertiser THOS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21, 1894 NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIPTION LAWS. Few readers or publishers of papers fully and clearly understand the laws governing subscriptions. The decisions of the United States Court on this sub ject are : 1. Subscribers who do not give ex press notice to the contrary are con sidered as wishing to renew their sub scriptions. 2. If subscribsrs order the discon tinuance of thair periodicals, the pub lisher may continue to send them un til all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals from the post office to which they are directed, they are responsible until they have settled their dills and ordered them discon tinued. 4. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publish er, and the papers are sent to the former address, they are held respon sible. 5. The courts have decided that re fusing to take periodicals from the office, or removing: and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud. 6. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of the time if they do not wish to con tinue taking it; otherwise the publish er is authorised to send it, and the subscriber will be responsible ' until an express notice, with payment of all arrearages, is sent to publisher. The latest postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can arrest any one for fraud who takes a paper and refuses to pay it. Under this law the man who allows his subscription to run along for sometime unpaid, and then orders it discontinued, or orders the postmaster to mark it "refused," and have a postal oard sent notifying the publishers, lays himself liable to arrest and fine, the same as for theft. Gen. Rudolph Seigling, of Char . leston, is dead, He was president of one of the Charleston city banks, also of thc News and Cou rier Publishing Company. From all accounts Ellerbe afc the I Lexington meetiug on last Satur day failed utterly if not ignobly j to hold up his end of the single tree. The race now seems to be between John Gary Evans and W. D. Evans. The gubernatorial phases change from time to time, eveD from day j to day. Three weeks ago Ellerbe ! was leading, to-dav, since his col lapse at the Lexington moating, he lags way behind and W. D. Evans takes his place. Izlar was elected to Congress from the first district over his com petitor Stokes by a majority of four er five hundred. The vote throughout the district was very light, not more than half the voters going to the polls. ? Some of the anti papers say that if he does not receive the nomina tion in convention, John Gary Evans will run anyway in the gen eral primary, but we do not be lieve it, but that with them the wish is father to the thought. The question of railroad Re ceivers seems to be attracting national attention. The New York World, one of the most influential newspapers in this country, de nominates them "costly sinecures. South Carolina does not seem to be the only State that is cursed by railways in the hands of Receivers Should President Cleveland veto the Bland bill those democrats who are now enjoying the fruits of a democratic administration, can prepare themselves to give way to republicans after two years. The people are becoming tired of so much delay and tom foolery, and if the party whom they put in power does not give them relief they will vote for some one else next time-Ex. A correspondent of the Colleton Courier says : "The throttle value of desolation has been thrown wide open to annihilate and utterly de stroy the liberties of tho people and bind with steelish fetters of servitude our last vestige of hope for relief." All ve have to say about the man that jerked that throttle val ve open is that he ought to have his head sawed off. We bet $5 he's a pluttercrat. The great religious revival which has swept over the eastern and Central States has extended to Washington D. C., where Moody | and Sankey are holding a series of meetingg. They attract audiences drawn from every class. A Wash ington correspondent writes : "Justices Strong and Harlan one night after night on the platform and join in the exercises. Senator Peffer has been an active particip ant. Leaders of society sit side by side with -department clerks and saleswomen under the spell of the songand oratory the vibrating chorus, the echoing paryers and the appeals of the white-beardod speaker. It is a phenomenon which Washington will long discuss, and the effects of which will doubt less remain for years after the twofamous evangelists have pass ed from the scene of their labors. The eleetic-?s last fall ar more recent ones in New Ye (Pennsylvania show very that the current sets si against the Democracy lambia State. "There is no good reaso Mr. Clevaland should vet Bland coinage bill. It is no ject to the objections so st urged against the Sherman Greenville News. Of course not, but he'll y all the same. What sort of Democral those 55 northern democrati voted with the republicans a the Bland seigniorage bill they in accord with the ph of their party which decid< the equal use of both met money?-People's Advocate. And what kind of demc president will he be who wi! this seigniorage bili ! DISPENSARY DID E The Colleton Courier oJ week in commentiag on the says : It is also worthy of nc this connection that the cri: docket at the recent term c court was very much lighter it has been for a number of t Whether this decrease in and consequent saving of n expended for holding court t tax payers of the county be dil attributable to the operatic the dispensary law or not course, a matter of opinion, one thing is certain that the pensary was somewhere ar when the remarkable and cons able decrease in this county curred. H1COKALORUM AND COK AH IR AM. After along fight, through n j trials and tribulations,Tillmar gained the victory in the rail tax cases. ? Judge Simonton says in hil cree, of which we publish a sy] : sis on our outside, that the ass ment of railroad property is excessive, that the taxes mus paid for the past three years full, penalties and all, and all costs. And y?t a few short mor ago this same Judgo Simonton upholding"- Receiver Chamber? in all his resistance to the r. ment of tho very taxes that hei says are legal and proper. M< over, he actually punishes receiver, "the creature of court," as the Judge was ace tomedto call Chamberlain,by m ing him pay all the costs, for do the very thing that he authori: and encouraged and aided s abetted him to do. But let tl all pass. Simonton is right now I It is barely possible that 1 bill now pending in Congress li iting the power of receivers, a upon which a favorable report 1 just been made by the judicii committee, and for which t country may thank Ben Tillmj had something to do with t learned Judge's change of fro] This issue-almost as broad as t nation-was getting too far-reac ing and searching even for hicok lorum Simonton and locokahira Chamberlain. They couldn't stai the pressure. Death of Gen. Seigling. CHARLESTON, March 14.-Ge Rudolph Seigling died this (We nesday) morning at 1:10 o'cloc having deen strickenw ith paralys yesterday about 10 o'clock, I was 54 years of age, was a Co: federate survivor, having serve throughout the war as lieutenai in Backman's battery of artiller; and having been severely wounde at Second Mauassas. He wras prt sident of the News and Count: Company, president of the Ban ot Charleston, and a most prom: neut and influential citizen. The Governor. Press and Banner. Qutc a number of the new papers have expressed their choio for Governor to succeed Tillman As between the Reformers th< Press and Banner has no particu lar choice. The}' all appear ver} much alike to us, aud anyone of them will do us just as well ai another. All the preference that wo have is, to get tho one that will best en force the dispensary law, and we suppose that none would take more pleasure in enforcing it than John Gary Evans. Seizing Fertilizers. The Columbia State. BsNNETTSVll LE, March 13. Ferlilizer Inspector J. L. Hodges, has exploded a bomb among the farmers living in the eastern portion of this county. The State Line Cotton Seed Oil Mill is lo cated at Gibson Station, N. C., and a majority of the mill's cus tomers live in thia State. They \ have purchased and hauled the meal over the State line toplan tations without the "State tax tag and analysis being attached to thc bags. Mr. Hodges has seized several hundred bags of this meal and has ordered the farmers not to J molest it until an investigation is had. CYIME Di TEXAS. A Large Family Almost Exter minatecL LONGVIEW, Tex., March 18.-A cyclone swept over this place at 3 o'clock this morning, accom panied by hailstones of immense size. The greatest fury was six miles east of here, where it struck the large country house of John Cain lately occupied by a large family of negroes. The house was in an ancient grove of oaks, twenty in number. Every one of them were torn up and piled up in terrible confusion with dead fowls, dogs and cows, and five dead, and eight badly wounded negroes. Old man Alexander Lester was found fifty yards away entirely nude ard dead. His wife Sarah, was pinned under a tree, mangled and dead. Alexander Lester, ;Jr., was mangled, and is dead. Robert Lester, nine years old, was found near a tree without mark of violence, dead. Jasper Colins was pinned under a large oak, snuggly covered, his head crushed and his limbs broken, dead. Beside him, crawled pain fully out, his young wife, Mollie with au ugly hole in the centre of her forehead. She will recover. Sissy Lester, infant was found in a fallen tree top with legs and arms crushed, dead. Silas Johnson, who was visiting, was bruised from head to foot, but no bones broken, will recover. Frank Dizer, also visiting, leg broken below the knee, may recover. Dock Sim mons, who was in bed with Alexander Lester, Jr., had his head bruised and will die. O'Dessa Lester, four years of age, leg and both arms broken, will die. She was fouiid many yards away in the fields. Arthur Lester six years old, leg broken in two places above and below the knee and otherwise badly biaised, and will die. Willie Lester five years old, slightly hurt. Says he woke up a long ways from home in a field, suffering from hail and rain. , Mr. Ban Hope, a whiteman near by brought assistance immediately and tho dead and the dying w-:re , taken to a one-room house belong ing to E. C. Edwards, a son-in law, where they were laid in bed in strange confusion, dead, un counscious, suffering, side by side , the correspondent often mistak ing living for the dead. Drs. Hall j and Wilson were attending the worst hurt, while the wounded wh? were ablet hobbled, painfully bleeding about the yard, in the H rain bemoaning the fate of their 1 relatives and?frieads. Half a mile south of this house, 3 the house of Mr. Davis a white 1 man, was completely demolished,I' but with the exception of a few painful bruises, all escaped death. Johu Buffett's Jwagon, near by, ( was blown away and much of it 1 has not been found yet. The ( grainery of Nick Harris, two miles east was unroofed. The house af Sallie Jones, colored was wreck- 1 ed and her four-year-old daughter, Lorilla, was perhaps fatally 1 wounded by hail stones, A pas- . senger train passed just as the cyclone swept by, narrowly escap- ; ing it. All previous accounts of im- i meuse hail stones and wind dwindle into insignificance. Many of these blocks of ice weighed fourteen to eighteen ounces, while others found as late as 9 o'clock, after a warm rain and warm weath er, were larger than a goose egg. Two of these missiles passed through the roof of C. E. Thornton's residence, making a hole like a cannon ball, while fowls roosting in the trees were killed by the hundreds. A cow belonging to Frank Lawson was killed, and stock bear many marks from these ice stones. About 300 window lights wore broken in this place. Farm fencas and fruit trees were I j prostrated for miles aroud. The active Prohibitionists haven't been saying anything, but they have been at work for some time, and it is pretty safe to say that they have now about com- 1 pleted the work of sounding the sentiment of the Prohibitionists 1 in the State. In a very few days, 1 it is understood, some very in- j teresting information from Prohi bition headquarters may bo ex pected. It looks now as if the Prohibitionist? are preparing to make a big fight all along the line; thaf an early convention will be held, and that as a final resort a State Prohibition ticket may be put out, to go before the people in the August primary. What strength such a ticket would de velop remains to be seen-News Courier and. Bret Harte, although past fifty and in poor health, is avery hand some man.

It is said that an officer once went up to the ruler of the English common-wealth, [after he had finished a prayer in the presence of his troops, and said to him roughly : *'I kuow now the God you be lieve in ! He is onty a bigger and stronger Oliver Cromwell." Whether this bold declaration was true or not there is reason to believe from many of the sermons which have come to us from those early days that some of our fore fathers, with their narrew lives and intense personal affections and prejudices, were apt to to re gard their Maker merely as a larger and more powerful Self, very much as they did their king or the chief of their clan. The chief of thc Leslies is said to have prayed before a battle: "Be on our side 1 An' gin ye canna be on our side, aye lay low a hit, an'l ye'll Bee thae carles get ?a hidin' that must please ye." An old Covenanter, who ruled his household with a rod of iron, is said to have prayed in all sincerity at family worship: "0 Lord, hae a care o' Rob, ^for he is cn the great deep, an' Thou holdestiton the hollow o' Thy hand. And hae a care o' Jamie, for he hae gone to fight the en emies o' his country, and the out come o' the battle is wi' Thee. But ye need na fash yerseP wi wee Willy, for I hae him here, air I'm cawpable o' lookin after him mysaP." There was no irreverence meant in these petitions', however much of vanity or of misconception of God may have been exhibited in the language used. Cavalier and Roundhead, Fenian and Orangeman' Bon apartist and Legitimist, havo alike invoked the aid of the Ruler of the univer3e< with a passionate faith that He waa a partism with strong, bitter prejudices like themselves. We have learned to offer our petitions with at lest moro of a 3emblence to reverence; but how many of us endow .the Almighty tvilh our own opinions and pre judices? And bow often we forget to ask His help, until we find we ire not able to help ourselves 1 While deer driving in the lower potion'of Marion coun iays ago, Mr. i Thomas H, Kirton rf the Centenary neighborhood, made one of the most remarkable mots that has been recorded in this State within quite a penrod. Three deer, a buck and two does, were jumped at one time by the dogs and ran out?iu a bunch,at the 3tand occupied by Mr. Kirton, coming directly towards him, and when within a short distance he ?red, killing all three of them at single shot. The first President Harrison, the ''Tippecanoe" of historic fame, left many descendants, two of whom live in Washington. They are named Reynolds, and and they have in their possession a big hair cloth armchair that was given to "Tippecanoe" by the ladies of Indiana. It is very uncomfortable as there are great raised flowers, done in worsteds, and an Ameri can eagle in beaded work. EGGS FOR HATCHING, PURELY BRED.
