Edenfield Advertiser HOS. J. ADAMS,.E?ITOK WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27,1894! A rate of one and one-third fare for the round trip will be given teachers who wish to attend the State Teachers' Associalion at Spartanburg July 1-5. A single plant of wheat will of ten produce 2,000 seeds in one season; a sun-flower will yield 4 000, a poppy 32,000 a tobacco plant 360,000 a spleen wort 1,000, 000. A plot has just been nipped in the bud in Washington city to blow up the Capitol and loot the treasury. A half breed Indian was the prime mover in the plot. The authorities aro very vigilant, and it is thought that the danger has past. The latest development in the milk business in London is to drive the cows around the route and have them milked in the 'presence of the consumer. The customer is thus able to judge for himself of the healthy appearance^ of the animal, and is sure of fresh milk. The practice is a , common and ancient one in Egypt. Editor Ball, in the Columbia Jonrnal says : "What's the news?" said a mis erablu sinner of an Anti to me as I disembarked from the train yes terday afternoon. "We've lost John Sam Verner" was my sorrowful reply. "Well that's nothing," he said. "Ain't we gained Wash Shell?" and the crowd roared tem pestuously. "Nothing succeeds like success." The public looks upon the adver tising of a merchant as a thermometer of his business. If it is large and well defined, they believe he deserves and is enjoy ing prosperity, and so patronize him. If, on the other hand, it is small and contracted,'_it gives the appearance of poor business, and thus freezes away custom. Adver tising, like the stars, never sleeps. South Dakota farmers have written frequently to Congressman Pickier, of that State, during the past month, urging him to send them some Coxeyites to work on their farms. One farmer offered to take twenty-five of them on a contract to supply them with work at fair wages for five years. But up to date Mr. Picklel has been un able to find a solitary Coxeyite who cares to work. CAMPAIGN NOTES. Edgefield has* four candidates for office now sloshing around with the band wagon, Butler and Till man and Timmermen and Yeldell. In an interview in The State of Monday Senator Butler expresses himself satisfied with the week's campaigning. We suppose Till man is equally happy if not more so. "Coxeyite" Butler and "New bold" Tillman are the latest nicks respectively of Senator Butler and Governor Tillman. Bunch, the bamboozler, was on the stand at Lancaster. Butler had the crowd at Rock Hill ; Tillman had it at Yorkville ; Butler at Chester ; Tillman at Lan caster, Camden, and Sumter-four out of six. John Gary Evans led in the gubernatorial race from Rock Hill to Sumter, with Tindal and Ellerbe good seconds. Dr. Timmerman as a candidate fer Lieutenant Governor is practi cally without opposition. He an nounced at Yorkville, which was his first appearance at a campaign meeting, that he was a candidate for Lieutenont Governor and was running on his personal beauty, that he must be a fine looking man or he never would have been able to marry twice-the women thought so at least. Cal Caughman, candidate for Congress, spoke at Sumter on last Saturday and, according to The State, perspired a gallon, and de molished the welkins roundabout. Tillman's best speech of last week was at Sumter, indeed it was the only speech made during the week by anybody that had any meat in it. And Dr. Samps Pope says that honesty is the best policy even in politics. We notice a disposition on the part of many of the Reform can didatos for State offices to pitch into or jump on Senator Butler. This isn't toting fair, gentlemen. Tillman is Butler's antagonist proper and let him hoe his own flrow. Besides not being fair, this ?sort of double teaming makes But 1er the biggest dog of the campaign and will make friends for him. Be sides, we want all Ibo candidates to have some tail feathers left at the end of the campaign. HONOKI3IG THE ERAHNE. Greenwood Advocate. Upon the conclusion of the June term of the Circuit Court for Abbeville, just ended, both the people and the lawyers irrespective of factional lines, seem to unite with one voice in applauding the exalted purity and ability and the nobie patience and impartial judgment which characterized aud crowned the entire judicial course of his Honor, Ernest B. Gary, presiding judge. In thus honoring and adorning the ermine by a judicial conduct so honorable and glorious to South Carolina and her magnificent judicial history, Judge Gary is especially revered, respected, and honored by his fellow countrymen of Abbeville-the county of Judge Gary's nativity. BY HIS CHIL?T Awful Charge Brought Against Joseph Loclner in St, Lou's. ST. LCUIS, June 25.-Joseph Lochneris in jail charged with the murder of his young wife. The witness against him is 5-years-old daughter, a deaf mute. Abe Slupsky half brother of tue mur dered woman, has taken charge ?of the child. In order to test her ability to describe the tragedy he had the little one brought to his room by Mrs. Slupsky and encouragod her to enact the crime in pantomine, which she does with pathetic painstaking, emphasizing each gesture of the little bore arms with a peculiar exclamation that is half scream, half objurgation. She stood just inside the door way beside her foster father's bed bowing the head and bending up the arms, and waving back and forth slowly in imitation of a mother rocking her babe. Then, starting to a position indicating great alertness, the child imitated pointing of a weapon slightly down ward by a person in an erect posi tion. At this point she gave vent to al most unearthly sounds, indicative of her horrible recollection of the shooting. Then came the falling of the head and another half moan half shriek, indicating the coming on of death ; and after this, ra pidly, but with painful vividnoss, the stripping of rings from the dead woman'* firgers, the wrap ping of the body in a sheei, the act of laying it upon the bed, each motion punctuated by that of harrowing, inarticulate vocal signs of the child's dreadful earnestness. ANTIFERMENTINE Preserves Fruit, Cider, 3Iilk Butter, Eggs, Tomatoes, Cat sup, P ckles, Etc. What it is: It is a simple, harmless preparation, free from taste, smell and color, that has the properties of stop ping and preventing fermentation in all vegetable and animal foods. What It Does : It is especially useful for preserving fruits of all kinds with out cooking, retaining their natu al fresh appearance and taste. Its Use does away with labov, and makes what has been a hot, disagree able task, a delight and a pleasure, lt substitutes for the Summer heat of the kitchen the cool shade of the lawn or pirzza. Its Results are never doubt ful when used according to directions, and Plum Puddings, Teach and Berry Pies can be had in Winter as well as in Summer. Its Use is profitable and economical, for it saves one-half of thc surgar, saves the jars bro. en by heat, saves the fruit cooked away, and saves the time and labor lost by the old methods. For Cider it is unsurpassed. It stops fermentation at any point desired, and produces a sparkling beverage like Champagne. The question is sometimes asked, "Is it injurions?"' To allay all doubts on that score, we would say that we have consulted many of our most eminent Chemists and Physicians and all unite in pronouncing the use Anti ferment ?ne as a preservative, a per fectly safe and harmless preparation. TI IK XKW WAY. Fill the jars with natural fruit, as it comes from the tree or vine; add one Antiferment!ne tablet dissolved on top of each pint of fruit,etc., until the jars are full, theil lill the jars with a syrup made of water and sugur, cover and put away. The results is a natural fruit with syrup. Blackberries rasp berries, cherries, peaches, grapes, etc., done "with Antifermentine are as natural in appearance and taste as though just picked.

CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE. reason why he should abuse Mr. Cleveland and Senators. They acted conscientiously for the in terests they represent, and he believev them thoroughly Jionest in what they did. The trouble,he said was that the South had been re peatedly outvoted. The fight could not be won by abuse. A SAUT WITH STRAIT. Then Gen Butler and Congress man Strait had a little tilt about Congress being bought. Strait's idea was that "tho majority was influenced by the minority and the minority was in the hands of Cleveland. He had something to say on national potitics after gel ting through with Governor Tillman for to day, and said that the present tarifi' bill was satis factory and would be passed. Ho ?did not believe there was any chance for the adoption of his ideas of giving financial relief as long as Cleveland was President, but that did not make him believe Cleveland dishonest. If jhe was sent to the Senate he promised he would be found standing sido by 6ide with the masses, and he was willing to shoulder his gun and fii;ht for personal liberties and property. He wound up in A BURST OF ELOQUENCE, and when he was called to time was greeted with rounds of ap plause, and the opposition whooped for Tillman with might. It was the first time Tillman had ever been caught by the collar, so to speak, aud shaken up. BUTLER GETS EVEN. The Chairman Borber said that Governor Tillman desired to make a brief personal explanation if Gen Butler had no objection. Gen Butler said he wanted to make an explanation yesterday but it was ^denied him, and he would prefer for things to go as they had started. Then Chairman Barber an nounced TH3S GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATES. who each had half an hour Secretary of State Tindal made a general speech and traced the growth of the Movement and his connection with them. It was his hobby long ago to have a Farmers' Convention. Hejwas presi dent of the first Farmers' Conven tion. The College was demanded and refused, and it was then found that the Government was in the hands of a few. We want the whole people to rule. I have been abreast with the "Reform" party since its inception. The "Re formers" have been struggling for years for the right to vote for themselves, so why should you abrogate your rights? I am one who has stuck by the platform I helped to formulate. Thc State wanted foreign immigration, and more capital. He went on to say that iu his Abbeville letter he thought it best not to have a con vention when there was no op position to Reform candidates, but ho was willing todo what his party wanted. I will, however not be afraid to give my advice when I believe I am right. "How about 1890?" was asked by a farmer. Tindal: I was in Germany at school when the war broke out and came home and went to fight ing as a private and lost every thing I had, so when I went home it was root or die. Farmer: "Don't think hard of me, Mr Tindal." He went on and clearly defined his position as to his devotion to "Reform" ideaB and his belief in writing what he thought for the best interst of "Reformers." He was given some applause at the conclusion of his speech. He made a forcible talk and created a good impression. GEN ELLFRBE began with a joke and the state ment that be was a plain farmer. Dr. Popeye said,was as good a "Re former" as any and at home he was immaculately dressed; while on the stump he complained of clothes. He took a peep into the national situation and tried to ex plain the money question and the relations between gold and silver, about his record in the tux office and how he enforced the law. Ile got oil a number of good jokes. Some of them he had told before, lie kept, thc audienoe in a good humor and made a good impression with a m ix tu Je of humor and re form. Ile took the liberty of going into national politics more than any other of the Gubernatorial candidates. .lo i IN GARY EVANS said that, if it was not for tho campaign he would now be married. If there was one thing ho loved more than a vole it was a pretty woman. If he were cloded he would help (ho widow. When retering tj Senator Butler's denunciation of Tillman Evans said : We have seen the stump to-day converted into a prize ring. To day we have a law against duelling, so a gentlemen is almost at a discount when an insult is1 offered. I am hero to defend ihe Reform Administration as the most honest Government ever known. Voice: "How is taxes?" I'll get to thal. Governor Till man's taxes have been lower, and his administration hae given you more happiness than any other, and has paid more. More taxable pryperty is on the books than ever. Some one kept on talking .about his paying more taxes, which gave Evans a chance to say : If you have you have been dodging here tofore. I've never been bulldozed and I never expect to be. Voice: "Your whiskey is too high." Evans : it was the best yeu ever got. A farmer: "I'm a Gary Evans man, but you sell it too high." Evans: Gone up to my room and I'll give you some. John Gary Evans went on to say that the bill was not rushed through the 'Senate. Such a re flection is wroug to the members and such an innuendo is wrong to your worthy members, That bill was gotten up from the Gottenburg system and the Athens' system, and he gave his history of the law. He was a practical Prohibitionist and Childs a crank Prohibitionist. He didn't want prohibition and don't want it now. He gave a glowing account of the work of the dispensary, the fight against the "blind tiger" and how the Supreme Court legislated < he law out of existence. We have prohibition now and bar-rooms are wide open. He cited statistics to show that druukenuesss decreased over 75 per cent, and that the number of licenses taken out since thp dispensary closed was nearly 100 per cent more. When he con cluded he received causiderably more applause than anyone during the day. 1 lided he had the crowd. CABNOT ASSASSINATED. France's President Meets Violent Death in Lyons. LYONS, Juue 24.-The most in tense excitement has been caused everywhere in France hv what will probably pr attempt to assa. Carnot. To describ-' th? this city woulu ve ble. The preside! Lyons in counec thinternation exhit upoujhis arrival here he was tendered a re ception at the Prefecture, after which he visited the exhibition. He proceeded to the Palais de Commerce, where a banquet was given in his honor. At 9;25 o'clock to-night President Carnot started for the theatre where a gala performance was to be given because of his presence in the city. Several carriages were in the pro cession, the first one being occupied by tba President. Carnot's carriage was driven slowly along in front of the Palace of Commerco and then turned into Rue de La Re publique, still following the facade of the palace. When half way down the street, which was lined Wtth enthusiastic crowds of people who were loudly cheering, a mau rushed out of the crowd and sprung upon the step of the presi dent's landeau. Just at this limment Carnot was waving his right hand, saluting, with his hal n his nand in response to the ovation that was being given to him by the crowd. The people close to tho carriage saw that the man standing on the stop had a knife in his hand. THE DEATH STAB. By the glare of the electric lights they saw the bright blade gleaming in thc air as thc assassin's hand descended and then President Car not was seen to fall back with his hands pressed over his heart whore the steel had entered his body, M. Rivaud, prefect of Lyons who was seated beside President Carnot, immediately struck thc assassin a blow full in the face knocked him from the stop thus preventing", the man from again stabbing thc president which it was his evident intention to do. Instantly cries of "le presi dent est assassin,' "morte a la assassin" were hoard on every side and the crowd in the vicinity of the carriage swelled to enormous proportions, every member of it seemingly intent upon killing Ibo assassin. Ile was grasped by a dozen hands and his lifo would have (hen and there paid tho for feit of his crime had it not been for several sergeants do ville who secured him and attompted to draw him away from his captors. This was found to bo impossiblo as tho infuriated populace wero doter mined to lynch the man and all efforts of the sergeants de ville could do nothing beyond saving the man from instant death. Blows were aimed at his face and head over the shoulders of the police who had bv this time arrived aud many of the blows landed, fairly. At last the police succeeded in driving the howling mob back a foot or so from their prisoner but to break through it was a physical impossibility. GUARDING THE ASSASSIN. In the maantime the news of the attempted murder spread with lightning-like rapidity and mounted guards were sent to the aid of the police who were still struggling to preserve the life of the assassin. With drawn sabres in their hand the guards rode down into the swirling crowd which slowly gave way before the horses and at last the centre of the mob was reached. Then a cordon was formed around the ten almost ex hausted policemen and the captive was marched to the station. Even thus guarded the prisoner was not safe as men in the crowd made frantic endeavors to reach him. The guards repelled the attacks with the flat sides of their swords while at the same time keeping watchful eyes upon the crowd to prevent the prisoner from being shot. Maledictions wer? poured upon the captive and never before has such a wild indignation against a human being been in this city. When Mme Carnot reached thp prefecture the death chamber was cleared of all but the family and the widow, who had been joined by her third son, and was left alone with her dead. The late Presidents family re mained for a longtime in prayer bofore the bier and then the widow was led away by her three sons, all four weping bitterly. Around the bier are stationed a number of high officers of the Presidents military household, who with several Sisters of Charity have watched the remains ?hroughout the night. The perfecture itself is surrounded with troops and a strong detachment of the infantry is guarding the building in which Santo the assassin is confined. An Emersonian Habit.
