If there are an) farmers in Edge field county who desire to experiment with the sugar beet, they can be sup plied with seed upon application to Prof. Quick of Clemson Collage.

Horne, proprietor of the Ridge Spring Nurseries, was in town last week. Mr. Horne will do a big business this summer and fall. He handles none but tried varieties of fruits fully acclimated. It is highly satisfactory to Edgefield people that in all their gettings they did not get Dan Ouzts in the dispen sary stealings. It is highly "probable also that Larry "blowed off his mouth'? too early in the game. Dan came out of the matter, as one paper expresses it, "with not even the smell of fire on his garments." The Sunday-schools of our town have concluded to have their picnic &t Crouch's pond instead of Hatcher's i the date is next Friday, May 21st.

The case of Ninety-Six Township in the matter of contesting the pay ment of the bonds issued in favor ol the old Susong railroad, was arguet befar? the United States Court ii Richmond last week.

We clip the following from I Newberry Herald of last wee ''Chapman's History of Edgefit is now printed. Tae last paf went through our presses tl morning. The people of Edgefie and Saluda should show their a preciation of the labors of A Chapman by buying out this e( tion at once, lt is a good wo pud a book that every man iidgefield should possess. Only limited number have been printe and if you ho,>e to secure a co] you had better Co BO at once, will be sold by subscription on and at $2.00 a copy. The bo contains 528 pages. It will 1 ready for delivery in about U da) s-just as soon as we can ha1 the binding done." Little Histories. Messrs. D. A. Tompkins, of Cha lotte, N. C., and A. S. Tompkins, Es of Edgefleld, have gotten out a litt pamphlet entitled "The History of C K, 14th S. C. V.," in honor of their la lamented father, Capt.'D. C. Tompkir and as a memorial of the individu members of the company who are dea and a loving tribute to those who su vive. A copy of this little b.rochu will be placed in the hands cf evei survivor of Co. K. In our numb judgment this is the way to write tl history of the Confederate armies, n< it heavy tomes, by learned disquis tion, and glittering generalities, bi by commencing at the fountain hes and following the little streams to tl bitter end. The company was the foui tain head from which the armit sprang and the history of the compan; the mother, the wife, the childre cherish, for it is the history of fathe son and husband. Sal ada's First Solicitor. It has been the delight of th Saluda people to love and hono the name of Tillman for the lae half a century. And when CT James H. Tillman was appointe to act as solicitor for ;he first tim at tho first court held in Salud county, all were glad to sae Salu da's history reflec'ing to mucl honor on "Uncle" George Tillman The establishing of Saluda count) was one of the first policies bf thi statesman. Then to him belong the fatherhood of Saluda county We all bless the day Saluda's eld est brother, in the person of Col James H. Tillman, stands as he counsel in her first attempt t< mete out justice to her citizens The able way in which Col. Till man discharge d his duties as so licitor adis another laurel to th already rich crown of honor tlx uame of Tillman wears in Saluda Tillman's county and at the firs court ever hold iu it Tillman's soi appears for the first time as th< State's prosecuting attorney.-Sa luda Advocate. The Magnetic Healer. Prof. J. J. Nichols, the wonder ful healer without medicine, hai arrived. He is stopping with Mr M. A. Taylor, where he may b< consulted and where he will ad minister treatment. We have noi space to print his testimonials which are great tributes to hi* marvelous genius for working per manent cures. The Atlanta Con stitution, out of a great number ol other papers, says of him: "The cures accomplished by Mr Nichols are truly wonderful. Thc most painful and stubborn casec of rheumatism, neuralgia, nervout diseases, insomnia, female dis eases, etc., yield tc the simple touch of his hand, and once thej are driven from their victim the) never return. People affected with these and many other diseases gc limping into Mr. Nicholl offices often supported by friends, anc come ont in ten or fifteen minutef with a step as elastic as any youn< athlete. He has cured many ol the worst cases of chronic diseaBei in the city. His patients have beet amoLg the most prominent mer and women in the city, and the] all bear witness to his wonder*^ power and rejoice in the posses!?*?' again of the health of their youth that had been given us as foreve: gone. There is no humbuggery oi fanaticism about Mr. Nichol*. Ou< of the most wonderful features o his power is the control he has o it. He can stand in front of i person ten feet away and thrill th( whole body with magnetic foic< ; with a simple wave of the hand Not only are Atlanta people goinj to Mr. Nichols for relief, but suffer ers come to him from all over th? , South." , AJ Prof. Nichols will be hen , on y fifteen days he urges all whe desire to be treated to come anc [ consult him as 6oon as possible, at time is one of the elementa of sue [ cess in his treatments-not a greal deal of time, but several days al least, sometimes a week or twe being necessary to effect a penna ? nent cure. Governor Ellerbe is thoroughly I in earnest in his Jeterminatton tc i have the strictest and most scrup i ulous honesty shown by every i official who draws pay from the t Senate treasury. He has clearly t evinced this determination a num ?, ber of times since he became the chief. Talki ns Out Ri?lit. MR. EDITOR: I merely wish, iu a very few words, to endorse the call in your last issue over the signature of "Home Rule" in reference to the resignation of cer tain Greenwood gentlemen who are persistently swinging on to Edge field offices. "Home Rule" is right, and how those Greenwood gentle men, with a proper sause of pro priety, can hesitate longer to va cate their Edgefield offices is to me an unsolved problem. Right and justice to the people of Edgefield demand thut those Greenwood gen men with Edgefield offices in their pockets should step down and out with a double-quick movement. We all want and believe in Home Rule, and resident citizens of Edgefield, and they alone, should fill and control Edgefield offices of houor and trust, and none others should attempt or dare to usurp the rights of the people of Edge field. RIG"] T IS RIGHT. May 14th, 1897. Is Judge Simontoi nverted? The Charleston < espoudeiit of the Columbia Regis* says that Judge Simonton is widenlly a thorough convert to the claims of the dispensary system as a moral institution-or at least to the moral features of the system taken by themselves. In hip charge to the jury yesterday in the Beckroge case his Honor said: "The great feature of the Dispen sary law, the destruction of the sa loons and the political influei.ces of saloons, preventing drinking liquor in places where liquor is Bold, requiring the liquor establishments to be kept open during certa? 1 hours, the destruc tion of the habit of treating and the protection cast around minors and habitu:.! drunkards, these features will not be iujared or proiecced by any verdict you may render. No political question enters this case at all* '.Eat in addition to these great features of the dispensary law, and I want to say here that if they were the questions involved, if our verdict would settle or unsettle those principles of the dispensary law, there is DD court in the State who would be more prompt to declare that the provisions to which I have refererd you are not only lawful, but the wisest exercise of the police powers of this State." Such a tribute to Ben Tillman's system for regulating the liquor traffic, from Judge Simonton, is worthy of note. Light Oil the Cash-Shannon' Duel. We are told by Col* W. M. Pickett, of Anson coautv, N. C., who is a lifelong friend and a distant rotation by affinity of Col. E. B. C. Cash, that he heard the Colonel say that the sharpest sting in his bosom relative to the Shannon trouble was that he failed to recoguize the salute that salute that Col. Shannon gave him as he came on the ground to settle the grievance. Here is Col. Cash's pri vate declaration to me on several different occasions: "If I had only seen Col. Shannon salute me as he came on the grouud I would not have fired a shot, but would have advancd and said: Geutlomen I am an expe;:t as a pistol sh3t,which I know Col. Shannon is not, and seeing from his salute that he dosn't come on the ground with venom iii his heart towards me, I now propose a settlement of the difficult}' and a handshake, as I feel sure Col. Shannon would bite the du6t if I shot.*' Why take Johnson's Chill & Fever Tonic? Because it cures the most stubborn case of Fever in ONE DAY. In the Buzzard-Henderson case the defense challenged the indictment, but it had been so carefully drawn that it stood the test, the Judge ru)ed in favor of the State without hearing any argumentjfrom the Solicitor at all. This indictment was drawn by Hon. J. Wm. Thurmond without any assistance or even a suggesion from any one. In drawing indictments where several perBons are indicted together in such cases as this was it requires a great deal of skill, and had this indictment been defective, and the Judge ruled against the State the whole case would have io have been BL*ne over again which would have cost the county .$300, $400. or may be more than it costs as it is. So y JU can see the importance of having a Solicitor, like Thurmond,who knows his business Indictments are often quashed because they are not properly drawn, bul not when drawn by Thurmond.-Saluda Advocate. Clemson is a heavy load to the taxpayers of the State. We have had something to say about Clem son before. H>w instead of the State granting a dii?ct appropria tion for its maintainance, is giving it all the privilege tax on fertili zers. With Clemson, at least, there is too much extravagance. We am toid that when the legislature at its last sitting called for an item ized list of expenditures there was actually an entry of $2 for pulling a nigger's tooth-had to make some showing of what became ol it in order that the appropriation might not be reduced. We really believe that the college could be run handsomely on half what it gets, and if it can, why the tax payers need the balance.-Ex. Clio, S. C., has been destroyed by fire. Trying: to Save the Dispensary i Columbia,S. C., May 15.-The i Vandercook case is now occupying the entire attention of Attorney General Barber and Assistant Attorney Geneal Townsend. They j are both hard at work preparing their papers and arguments. They fully realize that if the case is lost it means a death blow to the state dispensary system. Hereabouts all regard this case as the crisis in the career of the dispensary and there are already rumors of an ex tra session of the general assembly being called immediately in the 3vent of an adverse decision by Judge Simontou. Governor EJlerhe has as yet had nothing to say along this line, but he it? known to be watching the developmeut of the Vandercook case with the keenest interest. Home folks in Washington. Just before Congress assembled this morning a report was circulated at the Capitol to the | effect that Senator Earle, of South Carolina, had died at his home in Greenville, from Bright's disease. Senator Tillman, and Represen tatives Latimer and McLaurin at once telegraphed to Greenville and received a denial of the rumor. It appears that Senator Earle's daughter, who was in Washington, received a telegram, stating that her father was very ill and request ing her to ccme home at once. Senator Earle bau made many frieuds during his brief career in the Senate, and Senators and Representatives of every political faith today expressed the deepest sympathv for him in his present illness. His courtly manner,' hie ability as a lawyer and his elo quence as a debator is fully recog nized by his Senatorial associates, and he is destined to occupy a i prominent place in the Senate should he recover. At a recent caucus of Democratic Senators he made a strong speech, in favor of reorganizing the Senate committee, and the steering committee has determined to resign him to two im poi tant committees, claims, and poitoffices and postroads.-News Courier. JOHNSON'S CHILL AND FEVER TONIC Cures Fever In One Day. An Open Letter. Augusta Herald : I am a resident of Lincoln county, Ga., and have been in bad health for 20 years, spending thousands of dollars for I medicines and doctor' * about given up all h> well, when some two got a message from J. D. Moss, who reside to come down at ? try 1 Magnetic treatment. / ing up all the strength could, I boarded the tra to Augusta. When I re. I was prostrated-thong ' ..auld die on the road. After taging Prof. Nichols' treatment for ten days I feel so much improved that I feel fully justified in saying that I will with a few more treatments recover my health entirely. Prof. Nichols is a wouilerl'nl man and I take this means of telling ail ladies Butlering with any trouble that their family physician has failed to cure with medicines, to go and get cured at once by his wonderful treatment of magnetism. He has simply done more for me in ten days than all the physicians who havetreated me in 20 years time. Mr. J. D. Moss, her brother, who holds a prominent position with the large dry goods house of Laudram & Butler, will testify to the same. M re. Dallis can be seen at Prof. Nichols' office at 610 Broad Srreet. A convention of cripples has been called by the management of the St. Louis Fxposition to meet in that institution the second week in September. The object is to amelorate the condition of the maimed ; and the convention will have three distinct features the assembling of cripples, the meeting of surgeons, and the exhibit of artificial limbs. In order that the attendance may be large railroad and labor unious in general have been communicated with, and hundaeds from points all over the United States have agreed to send dele gates who have lost either an arm or a leg. Grand array Posts have also promised to interest them selves. The entire business of the com mon pleas court was dispatched before noon. There was but one jury case, and that was the case of Geo. Johnsou against the Southern Railway Co. B. L. Abney, Esq., of Columbia, appeared for the defense, and argued for a con tinuance on the grounds that a conductor, who was the most material witness, was ou: in California. Continuance *vas granted. A number of cases were continued, and in others different motions or orders were made. The court adjourned sine die in time to reach the evening train.-Saluda Sentinel.

NICHOLS, THE GREAT GEORGIA HEALER, -WILL BE AE EDGEFIELD O. Hv Monday, May 17, For 15 Days. Cures When Others Fail-Disease Vanishes at His Touch-A Marvelous Man. The cures which are daily being per formed by Prof. James Nichols, the magnetic man, or whatever strange sort of being he may be called, almost stagger credulity. That he does im part a wonderful current of vitality, that he cures pains and heals diseases, there is no longer room for doubt. Hundreds testify to his almost mirac ulous cures. Under his touch, the lame walk, the deaf hear, the blind see, disease vanishes ana the despondent are filled with hope. WHAT OTHERS SAY. From hundreds of certificates volun tarily given to Prof. Nichols, which may be seen at his office, testifying to all manner of cures, we find space for the following: VERTIGO AND PARALYSIS CURED. "About three years ago, I had sev eral severe attacks of vertigo or partial paralysis, as termed by the attending physician. After a confinement of sev eral weeks to my bed, I at last gained suiUcient strength to attend to my bus iness, but was still troubled with a swimming or dizziness of the head and occasionally headache, particularly when exposed to the hot sun. To be relieved of this dizziness and occasion al headache, I concluded aboJt a month ago to try Dr. Nicholl magic treat ment. I now take pleasure in saying that after the first or second treatment I have not had the semblance of a head ache, and the dizzy sensation has en tirely disappeared. Therefore, I cheer fully recommend this doctor's treat ment to suffering humanity for all dis eases of debility, or when the nervous system has been in the least impaired, believing that magnetism is a power ful agent when one possesses it, as does this doctor, to build up and return the patient to health without the use of medicine. J. F. JUDSON, 200 Marietta Street. EYE TROUBLE CURED. ATLANTA, GA., Oct. 16th, 1896. This ?3 to certtfy tin t I have taken four treatments for my eyes for near sightedness from Dr. J. J. Nichols, and I find that his treatments have done me much good. I have been wearing glasses for five years, and I find that I can go without them entirely. HETTIE MARSHALL. ATLANTA, Oct. 10th, 1896. Prof J. J. Nichols-Dear Sir: lean not, say enough for your treatment. For five years my daughter Hettie wore glasses for nearsightedness, and am now happy to state that after four treatments my daughter could see without the aid of glasses and is now thoroughly cared. Respectfully, MRS. B. MARSHALL. ATLANTA, Ga., June 6th, 1S96. Prof. J. J. Nichols-Dear Sir : I have been deaf for 27 years, during which time I could not hear even the sound of | an organ in church.

Nichols, Atlanta, Ga.-Dear Sir: Since taking your treatment which I commenced some two weeks ago, I am happy to say that I have been greatly benefited. My appetite is good, I sleep soundly and am almost perfectly clear of the pains which 1 suffered so much before you commenc ed treating me.
