Edenfield 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- j sidered as wishing to renew their sub scriptions. 2. If subscribers 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-j rier Publishing Company. From all accounts Ellerbe at the Lexington meetiug on last Satur day failed utterly if not ignobly 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, even from day to day. Three weeks ago Ellerbe was leading, to-dav, since his col lapse at the Lexington meeting, he lags way behind and W. D. Evans j takes his place. -Iziar ~was~e}?cted to Congress from the first district over his com petitor Stokes by a majority of j 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 tobe 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 j 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 j if the party whom they put inj power does not give them relief j they will vote for some one el?e 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 valve 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 aeries of meetings. 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 ?pell of the songand oratory the vibrating chorus, the echoing paryers and the appeals of the white-bearded 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 elections last fall and the more recent ones in New York and Pennsylvania show very clearly that the current sets strongly against the Democracy.-Co lumbia State. "There is no good reason why Mr. Clevaland should veto the Blind coinage bill. It is not sub ject to the objections so strongly urged against the Sherman bill. Greenville News. Of course not, but he'll veto it all the same. What sort of Democrats are those 55 northern democrats that veted with the republicans against the Bland seigniorage bill? Are they in accord with the platform of their party which decided for the equal use of both metals as money?-People's Advocate. And what kind of democratic president will he be wrho will vote this seigniorage bili ! DISPENSARY DID IT. The Colleton Courier of last week in commentiag on the court says : It is also worthy of note in this connection that the criminal docket at the recent term of the court was very much lighter than it has been for a number of terms. Whether this decrease in crime and consequent saving of money expended for holding court to the tax payers of the county be directly attributable to the operation of the dispensary law or not is, of course, a matter of opinion, but one thing is certain that the dis pensary was somewhere around when the remarkable and consider able decrease in this county oc curred. HICOKALORUM AND LO COKAHIRA3I. After along fight, through many trials and tribulations,Tillman has gained the victory in the railroad tax cases. Judge Simonton says in his de cree, of which we publish a synop ? sis on our outside, that the assess ment of railroad property is not excessive, that the taxes must be paid for the past three years in full, penalties and all, and all the costs. And yat a few short months ago this same Judge Simonton was upholding^ Receiver Chamberlain in all his resistance to the pay ment of the very taxes that he now says are legal and proper. More over, he actually punishes the receiver, "the creature of the court," as the Judge was accus tomed to call Chamberlaiujby mak ing him pay all the costs, fordoing the very thing that he authorized and encouraged and aided and abetted him to do. But let that all pass. Simonton is right now. It is barely possible that the bill now pending in Congress lim iting the power of receivers, and upon which a favorable report has just been made by the judiciary committee, and for which the country may thank Ben Tillman, had something to do with the learned Judge's change of front. This issue-almost as broad as the nation-was getting too far-reach ing and searching even for hicoka lorum Simonton and locokahiram Chamberlain. They couldn't stand the pressure. Death of Gen. Seigling. CHARLESTON, March 14.-Gen. Rudolph Seigling died this (Wed nesday) morning at 1:10 o'clock, having deen strickenw ith paralysis yesterday about 10 o'clock. He was 54 years of age, was a Con federate survivor, having served throughout the war as lieutenant in Backman's battery of artillery, and having been severely wounded at Second Mauassas. He was pre sident of the News and Courier Company, president of the Bank ot Charleston, and a most promi nent and influential citizen. The Governor. Press and Banner. Qute a number of the new? papers have expressed their choice for Governor to succeed Tillman. As between the Reformers the Press and Banner has no particu lar choice. They all appear very much alike to us, and anyone of them will do us just as well as another. All the preference that wo have is, to get the 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 Stale. BENNETTSVHLE, 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 this State. They have purchased and hauled the meal over the State line to plan tations without the \State tax tag and analysis being attached to the bags. Mr. Hodges has seized several hundred bags of this meal and has ordered the farmers not to molest it until an investigation is CYLONE IN TEXAS. A Large Family Almost Exter minated. 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 if 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 and 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. Jaspe 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 bone6 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 found many yards away iu the fields. Arthur Lester, six years old, leg broken in two places above and below the knee and otherwise badly biaised, and will die. Wilile 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 the 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 and Wilson were attending the worst hurt, while the wounded whc? were able, hobbled, painfully bleeding about the yard, in the rain bemoaning the fate of their relatives and?frieads. Half a mile south of this house, the house of Mr. Davis a white ms.n, was completely demolished, but with the exception of a few painful bruises, all escaped death. John Buffett's [wagon, near by, was blown away and much of it has not been found yet. The grainery of Nick Harris, two miles east was unroofed. The house af Sallie Jones, colored was wreck ed and her four-year-old daughter, Lorilla, was perhaps fatally wounded by hail stones, A pas senger train passed just as the cyclone swept by, narrowly escap ing it. All previous accounts of im mense 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 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 weru 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 Bafe to say that they have now about com pleted the work of sounding the sentiment of the Prohibit "lists in the State. In a very few v^ays, it is understood, some very in teresting information from Prohi bition headquarters may bo ex pected. It looks now as if the Prohibitionists are preparing to make a big fight all along the line; that 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. His face retains an appearance of youth, while his hair is silvery white. Ile has)) a slender figure and au erect and graceful carriage. He is a club-1 man and much sought after in so- \1 eiety, but goes out infrequently, IRREVERENT PRAYERS. Petitions "Which Impute to the Almighty Human Passion and Prejudices. Youth's Companion.. It is said that au officer ouce weut 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 know now the God you be lieve in ! He is only a bigger and stronger Oliver Cromwell." Whether this bold declaration was true or not there is reason to believe from many of the sermona 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 bit, an'j ye'll see 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 boldest it OL the hollow o' Thy hand. And hae a care o' Jamie, for he hae gone to fight the en emies o' his country, aud the out come o' the battle is wi' Thee. But ye need na fash yersel' wi wee Willy, for I hae him here, an' I'm cawpable o' lookin after him mysalV1 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 universe, with a passionate faith that He was a partism with strong, bitter prejudices like themselves. We have learned to offer our petitions with at lest moro of a semblence to reverence; but how many of us endow .the Almighty with our own opinions and pre judices? And how often we forget to ask His help, until we find we are not able to help ourselves 1 While deer driving in the lower potion'of Marion coun days ago, Mr. i Thomas H, Kirton of the Centenary neighborhood, made one of the most remarkable shots that has been recorded in this State within quite a perrod. Three deer, a buck and two does, were jumped at one time by the dogs and ran out?in a bunch,at the stand occupied by Mr. Kirton, coming directly towards him, and when within a short distance he fired, 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.
