Please, O Lord, remember the Maine." -Detroit Free Press. We predict for Edgefield a consider able boom this fall.

It is obliged to be so. The Southern Railway has not bought the Cumberland Gap as stated last week, but leased it for a term of years. There will soon be a general overhauling and fixing up of this short link between Edgefield and Aiken, with special reference to the road bed, passenger coaches, and engines so that Edgefield and the outside world that wishes to get to Edgefield will have a better par service than has been in the heretofore.

The following account of the death of young Louis A. Dugas we clip from the Augusta Chronicle of June 26th: Louis A. Dugas, son of Dr. George C. Dugas, died yesterday morning at 20 minutes post S o'clock, after an ill ness of some weeks duration, from pemphigus. While death was not unexpected, it came as a terrible blow to the family of the manly young fellow, and they are almost overcome with grief. Several weeks since young Louis Dugas was taken ill, and for some days it was thought that the disease was smallpox. Later there was a con sultation of physicians and they pro nounced it pemphigus. For several days he lingered in the balance and then began to show signs of improve ment, so much so that every hope of his recovery was entertained. ?Satur day, however, he grew worse, and sank rapidly until the end came on yester day. Louis Dugas was a boy that all who knew loved, and his taking away has brought sorrow to many friends. The funeral will take plavie this morning at ll o'clock at the city ceme tery. E. H. STANLEY, 11 ft D. PRACTICE LIMITED TO Eye, Ear, fee and Throat. Offices Sic- Broad St.. AUGUSTA, GA. A Query. MR. EDITOR: Will you, or will you ask some one else to, give through your paper the following information : 1st query. Has the democratic party of Edgefield been properly organized? 2nd. If so by what authority? 3rd. Did the State democratic executive committee issue a call? Respec'fully, P. B. LANHAM. Thc County Interdcn jmiuational S. S. Convention. Every good cause ought to have an annual rallying time, when its scattered forces may be massed for review of past achievement; to take counsel for future work; and to gain inspiration which comes from the consciousness of active and extensive brotherhood in the enterprise. There is no better cause in the laud than the Sunday-school work ; no phase of that work is more capable of general and effective development than its interdenom inational feature. It is a point of union where all tru>> Christians can meet and join their several efforts in the common cause, with out beirg untrue in the '.east bit to their individual church connec tions. The spiritual power that might be generated here to savo the young, to advance temperance, to promote Christian e:luca'ion, and to secure the triumph of Chris tian citizenship is beyond the power of language to express. Its possibilities ought to stir ;he heart and secure the co-operation of ev ery devout patriot. Let us make the county convention at Reho both, July Sth, 9th and 10th, a grand rallying time for the Chris tian ruasses of Edgefield county, and give a new impulse to a great movement. Frank Whilden, State field sec retary, will be there. There is a rich treat of practical instruction and spiritual experience in store for those who hear him. D. Z. DAXTZLER, for Ex. Com, The State Press Association. The committees in charge of the arrangements for the meeting of the State Press Association ou the 6th of July are actively at work in making the necessary preparations. The committee on finance is en gaged in the impovtaut business of providing the necssaiy fundf to defray expenoes of the occasion, and will wait immediately upon our citizens for their contributions. The reception and banquet com mittees held meetings yesterday afternoon, and it is certain that they will do all in their power to make the editors enjoy themselves -Greenville Mountaineer. A SONG OF TAX. Tax you dis way-tax you dat : j Tax yo' shoos, en tax yo' hat; Tax de bread, en tax (io meat; Tax de house, en tax de street; In the church whar sinners pray, Tax you fo' you gits away; Tax fer dis, tax fer dat; Lawd, whar is a po' man at? -F. L. S. RAIN SONG. Rain on de medders, en rain in de skies, En how come dat it rainin' in my li'l eyes? Cheer up, honey-sun is bonn' ter rise En peep thoo de winder in demawn in'I Rain on de roses, en rain in de skies, De bright sun hidin' furn my HT one's eyes; But, cheer up, 'honey,-sun is bouif to rise En peep thoo de winder in de mawn in'! -F. L. S. A VICTIM OF "DIXIE." I've had enough of fightin' Got no more blood to spill; But-the bands keep pinyin' "Dixie,' An' I Can't Keep Still! They're up an' down the country Whar recruitin' fellers drill, It's "Dixie," "Dixie." "Dixie," Till I fan't Keep Still! An' I lay aside my labor, An' I holler, with a will; "Three cheers-three cheers for "Dixie!' " . Oh, I Can't Keep Still! -F. L. 5. Thc Stamp Act. Congress has passed an act which requires a stamp to he placed upon a number of papors necessary for the traueaction of common, every-day business. This act goes into affect the first day of July, and a failure to com ply with its requi: ernents brings a penalty not exceeding $30 or im prisonment not exceeding six months, or both. Each bank check, draft, every bill of lading, mortgages, conveyances, leases, powers of attorney, ware-house re ceipts, telegraph messages and express packages must be stamped. lu every case the stamp m .it be put on, and the person affixing it must write his initials across it. Another provision of the act invalidates any paper to which it is not affixed. A mortgage or title to real es tate is worthless without a stamp, and th# proper number of stamps must be affixed. A deed for $100 must have a 50 cent stamp, and so must each premissory note for that amount on up to $500, and there must be a similar stamp for each additional $500.-Greenwood Journal. Ninety-Six Township Bonds. The Ninety-Six township bond case has been decide i against Ninety-Six at Richmond but it is likely that the case will be appealed to the Supreme Courfoflhe United States. The case was brought by Haynes?vorth & Parker for George W. Foll som. The auditor of Greenwood County has been requested to assess the tax upon Ninety-Six township to pay the bill. The amouut is $7.119 74 but there are other claims of the same nature not yet put into judgmeut. ' Wo repeat that Ninety-Six had just as well pay for they will have it to do in the end. We warned them against going into it at the first. We told them exactly how it would be but they paid no atten tion to our advice. In fact we lost friends by telling the truth. Abbeville Medium. Thc Coming of Flush Times. The indications are that when present war with Spain ib over we shall control Porto Rico,the Philip pines and Sandwich Islands, to say nothing of Cuba. We must main tain a large standing army and a large, efficient navy. We must build a canal across the Isthmus of Panama. All this means that thousands and hundreds of thous sandsofable bodied men will be withdrawn from ordinary pursuits, that new fields will be opened for the enterprising ; that the unem ployed may have employment if they will ; that a. period of pros perity for the farmer and the artisan, and consequently for the v-hole country, is near. How long the boom will last and what will be the ultimate result, are other questions, but it behooves the wiso to have their wits about them and be up and doing. That some Bort of a reaction will come in time, there can be no doubt. Louisville Courier-Journal. Blanco has refused lo exchange Lieut. Hobson and his comrades. The British' Consul at Santiago has suggested to* the United States authorities that he thought tho Spanish would give them up for a ransom. It is not known what tho authorities will do. Eczema ! The Only Cure. Eczema, is more than a skin disease, and no skin remedies can cure it. Tha doctors are unable to effect a cure, and their mineral mixtures are damaging to the most powerful constitution. The whole trouble is in the blood, and Swift's Specific is the only remedy which can reach.such deep-seated blood diseases. Ecr?ma broke oat on my daughter, and con tinued to spread until her head was entirely covered. She was treated by several good doctors, but grew worse, and the dreadful disease spread to her face. She was hen 1th springs, but re ceived no benefit. Many patent medicines were taken, but without re sult, until we decided to try S. S. S., and by the time the first bottle was finished, her head be gan to heal. A dozen bottleB cured her oom ?iletely and left her skin perfectly smooth. She s now sixteen years old, and has a magnlfloont growth of hair. Not a sign of the dreadful oisoaso has ever returned. H. T. SBOBE, ?701 Lucas Ave., St. Louis, Mo. Don't expect local applications ol soaps and salves to cure Eczema. They reach only the surface, while the di sease comes from within. Swift's Specific for etfc?ofe& The is the only cure and will reach the moat obstinate case. It is far ahead of all similar remedies, because it cures cases which are beyond their reach. S. S.
