Rattlesnake Bob Gardner, of Char leston dispensary fame, is now con stabling in Newberry. On last Satur day he seized thirteen half pints of whiskey from Green Jones, a colored man.

The disease with which they died was pronounced "Red Wa ter." The usual prescription by phy sicians is to drench with a pound of Epsom salts. But this did no good with Col. Mays' cattle. The following remedy for "Red Water" in cattle we clip from an old "Universal Receipt Book," nearly a hundred years old: "Take I ounce of bole ammoniac, half an ounce of dragons blood, 2 ounces of Castile soap and 1 drachm of roche alum. Dissolve these in a quart of hot ale or beer, let it stand until blood warm, give this at one dose. Repeat, if it has the desired effect, in twelve hours after." Lee's Sword. The following may be as near the truth as many other so-called historical anecdotes : When Hamlin Garland was gath ering material for the life of Grant he spent a day or two in Atlanta, where he met an old Virginia ne gro who said that he had witnessed Lee's surrender. Garland was in terested and questioned him close ly. "You say you were present when Lee surrendered?" "Dat I wuz, suh?" "Did you see Leo give up his sword?" "No, sir, I didn't ! Gin'rul Lee give un he sword? Not him ! Dey tried to i ake it furn him, but he made a pans at oue or two of dem, en dey lef off-I tell you !" "And where was Grant all the time?" "Oh, he wuz right dar, snh! En he (ol'era, he did: 'Well, boys, let him keep he weepon. He can't do much damage, kase he done whipped anyhow.' " Haiti wanger-McMillan.

HEADQUARTERS ) ABNER PERRIN CAMP, NO. 367. > U. C. V. ) EDGEFIELD, S. C., Aug. 13,1S97. At a meeting of the Abner Per rin Camp, U. C. V., held to-day the following resolutions were sub mitted by Capt. W. H. Brunson, W. D. Ramey and John E. Colgan, a committee appointed from the survivors of the 14th S. C. Reg't, McGowan's Brigade, and unani mously adopted : Whureas. This Camp has heard with sorrow and regret of the death of that brave and gallant soldier, distinguished and honored statesman, able and upright jurist Gen. Samuel McGowan who pass ed from the scenes of his earthly career at his home in Abbeville, S. C., on the morning of the 9th inst; be it Resolved, That in the death of Gen. McGowan the State has lost one of her brightest and ablest sons who has left behind him a record as a soldier made brilliant by his bravery and heroism on many hard fought fields, a statesmau and jurist unspotted and without a flaw or blemish, to whom all true Carolinans can point with pride, and the younger generation, sons of Confederate veterans, can well emulate the example left them by this great and good man, and the soldier of two wars, warm-heart ed, teLder and true. He was first in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his solders, whose in terest and welfare he always look ed after; whether on the march, on the field or in the bivouac he was with them. He cared for them as a father did his children, and his soldiers loved and cherished him. He never failed to enquire after and personally interest him self and to see that his "boys" were comfortable, and even the humblest private in the ranks of his brigade never escaped his watchful eye. He led them in battle and his noble form could always be seen in the thickest ol the fight with hat in hand waving above his head, on his favorite charger "Trooper," galloping in front cheering his boys on to vic tory. But he has gone-gone to meet bis soldiers and comrades were waiting to welcome the loved commander in the fields and by the still waters Heavenly shore of "their e: camping ground, where their tents are spread there to gr when we who wore the grey break step and cross over, no better epitaph could be in ed on the shaft that will mar last resting place, than his words when he was nearing end, although surrounded ty family and loved ones as he about to cross over the river, \ partaking of so^e nourishmer said, "Give it to the soldiers need it more than I do."

Gwaltney, pastor of the Edgefield Baptist church, is engaged in conducting protracted meetings, or in aiding the pastors in this glorious work. His labors are blessed to the glory of God iu the revival of ecclesias tical work ana the conversion of sinners. Notwithstanding the rainy season the work continued from day to day last week. Dr. Gwaltney h consecrated to the preaching of the gospel. He is a good preacher and pastor. He is profound, explicit, logical. One caunot listen to him without feel ing the power of the gospel. He preaches from the heart and reaches the heart of the hearer. May his streugth and life be spared for many years, that our church here and those in this sec tion for which he is laboring so zealously, may be edified and thus have a great, good and sacred liv ing influence over the people. - * * * While the spirituality of the people is evident and is increas ing the prospect for better times in this section is brightening in spite of the non-patriotic princi ples on the part of our political leaders. Selfishness is in the lead and mammoD is the object of adoratioD. While it may be said that self is predomioaot, we rejoice to believe that the patriots are not all dead, Wheoever the agricultural in terests shall have the proper legis lation, then this land aod couoty will blossom as the rose, and busi ness and prosperity will spring up everywhere and the people will re joice, poverty will take its flight, peace aud plenty will be in every heart and home. To accomplish this we must have more patriotism, less selfishness, more hooesty, greater integrity, more Christianity and spiritual life that tho bless iDgs of heaven may be poured out upoD us. * * * The Hon.

How He Won Her. "You caunot," shriek ed Alge mon Fitz Altamont, "pull the wool over my eyes. I see but too plainly that you have already resolved to reject me !" The worn a n to whom he arl dressed these impassioned words ga ?ed at him with cold, cruel eyes. She reclioed upoD the Bands, the waves breaking at her feet, but breaking far enough away for those dainty extremities to proclude the possibili'y of the sea spray injur ing her bathing costume. Algernon Fitz Altamont waied for ht-r answer, but answer came there DOUR. Still he sat waiting, waiting with hope iu his heart and saud in his shoes. But tbero was sand in the moral make-up of Algernon Fitz Altamont as well as ID his low cut russets.^ And he did not propose to give up so easily. Indeed, he proposed to win. Therefore, while he repressed himself, he pressed her for a reply. Seeing she took kindly to it he pressed her some more and still again. At last, when his a m was tired, she spoke, but in a light, bantering straiu that betokt. ned the flimsy flippancy of her Dature. "I may not, Mr. Fitz Altamont, be able, as you observed half an hour ago, to pull the wool over you eyes ; but perhaps I might succeed j in pulling the wool over your hand. Have you auy idea of what a mitteD is made of?" A ghastly pallor overspread the features of Algernon Fitz Alta mont. "Ah!" he caied, io despairing accents. "I see what you are driving at. You meau to iofer that u mitteD is 'uit' goods?" Cold, cruel, oaioulatiug coquette though she was, the inimit? wit of Algernon Fitz Altamont so pleased her maiden fancy that wheo he pressed her again, as he subse quently did, for Algernon was a stayer from Stayers vii le, she promi8"il to bs his forever and fl day. Which means until Sept. If by the f-en6hore and October lOtb iu the mountains. "Cherry Ripe" at the '"Luray" ? most delightful drink. JAPANESE MOTHERS. rh? y Thoroughly Understand the Tender Cara of Children. It sometimes happens that one sees a young American mother so utterly unfit for the training of children and for the duties of motherhood that one cannot but wonder why it pleased Providence ever to give her the care of little ones. This happens sometimes in the case of really estimable women, and I have heard a young mother say sadly that she never quite knew what to do with baby, it was such a queer little thing, and she was half afraid to touch it Other young things in the shape of puppies, kittens, or even colts, she knew all about and was quite at home with, but her own child remained a sort of curious and un canny little being to her till his baby days were over and he began to share in his mother's hobbies in a boyish sort of way. Now, in Japan a mother like this is an impossibility. She is not interested in politics or in social reforms, neither is she bent on being a social success, nor devoted to any scientific philanthropic work, as are so many of her western sis ters. She is par excellence a mother, and one who cannot be rivaled in any other country. No children are so well and carefully tended as hers, and she is patient and gentle with them, never threatening them, if they are unrulj, with corporal punishment, nor raising her voice and scolding them in the un pleasant way one so often hears in other countries. The Japanese mother is a born kindergacrtneriu and enters into the lives of her little ones just as easily as the western kindergarten teacher who has undergone a long period of study and framing. To her the duties, of motherhood come naturally, for among her nation women who will make good mothers are chosen as wives, and thus in the course-of nature the quality of motherliness is intensified as time goes on, and the race of mothers becomes very superior. Nowhere is motherhood as respected as in Japan, and nowhere does the mother re?oive moro attention from both her husband and her children. She ls regarded as the maker of the race, and her maternal duties are considered to be exceedingly honorable and to entitle her to the utmost consideration aud affec tion. -Pittsburg Dispatch.

The bladder was created for one pur pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, andas such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from im perfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from careless local treat ment of other diseases. CHIEF CAUSE. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the womo, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the .bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or usinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your urine aside for 24 hour; a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble..
