The House* of Representatives
adopted a rule the other day allow
.ing only ten minutes to each side
of a discuss iou, consequently mucb
time waB saved. This would be a
good rule for permanent adoption
The biennial session resolution
has been rejected by the Senate by
by one vote.
ilr. Archer's bill allowing the
counties to vote on tbe question of
"dispensary" of "no dispensary."
was passed by the House.
The wide tire bill was lost in the
House by a vote of 53 ti 44.
The Senate refused to concur in
the action ot the House appropriat
ing $100,000 for the public schools.
The house and senate conference
committees could not agree upon
Mr. Archer's local option bill.
The house had substituted a part
of Mr. Winkler's dispensary bill.
Messrs. Blythe Sharpe and Hollis
were appointed a committee on
free conference. They sub
sequently reported that they could
Dot agree, and recommeded the
rejection of the bill. This was
carried and the bill killed.
Mr. Blease's bill to require dis
interested witness to bills of eal ti
or chatteJ mortgages was taken up.
Senator Ragsdale favored the bill
and Senator Barnwell opposed it.
On motion of Senator Waller, the
bill was rejected by adopting the
unfavorable report.
The resolution to investigate th?j
dispensary was reached and Sena
tor Barnwell moved that the p?nate
do not concur. This y&a carried
without objection and and the dis
pensary investigation smothered
according to the original, program
me.
The bill to exempt the graduates
of the South Carolina Medical col
lege from examination was taken
up and senator Manning moved to
indefinitely postpone. The motion
prevailed. This is tho third time
the sen-ate bad rejected the bill,
it having been reconsidered.
The public printing was given
to The Columbia State and was
confirmed by the geo ral assembly.
The talk about when the con tu ry
ends and when another begins is
about past at this time. But it is
worth noting that when the new
century begins, January 1, 1901,
there will come with it some nov
elties. It will have twenty-four
leap years, tho greatest number
possible. February will have fivt
Sundays three times-1920, 1948
1976. The earliest possible date
on which Easter can occur is
March 12. The last time it
occurred on that, date was 1818
The latest that Easter can occur it
April 25. lt will occur but one
time in the coming century on that
date-1943. The middle day or
century will be January 1, 1951.
There will be 380 eclipses during
the coming century. In 1932
there will be seven eclipses. There
will be eight solar eclipses visible
in the Uuited States-1918, 1923
1925,1954,1979,1984. and 1994.
There will be twelve transits ot
Mercury. There will be no transit
of Venus until 2004. If there is a
child now living who will see all
these occurrences he will be bless
ed with long years. Anyhow, it is
-safe to affirm that no person who
?reads this item will see the solar
eclipse in 1994.-Ex.
What Constitutes a Pretty
Woman.
They say a fine dress, we say a
well painted house makesa pretty
home. Now every man should be
interested in a beautiful home.
And notwithstanding your house
may be very old, it will only take
paint the better and show the
greatest improvement besides in
durability, makes it equivalent to
a new house. And if you will
make your home surroundings
pleasant, your wife will grow
prettier and more pleasant as her
surroundings are improved. If
you will write, the Southorn Paiut
Co., Pinebluff, N. C. you will be
astonished to know what little cost
it would be to paint your house.
By sending them the dimet sions
of^ourhouBe they can tell you
about what quanity it will take to
give it one, two or three coats as
you desire.

WILL BURT LYNCHED.
For Attempting to Assault Mr.
C. L. Weeks.
Aiken, S. C., Feb. It-The negro
brute Will Burts, who on Monday
made an assault on the wife C. L.
Weeks, a prominent farmer who
lives eight miles from this plac^,
made good bis escape, but waa
promptly tracked by a posse toward
Edgefield, hif- old home. To assist,
in his arrest, Chief of Police C. L.
Weeks of Aiken seat oiit postal
cards offering a reward- for his
arrest. The negro got as far Green
wood county and had gone to work
when he was arrested by an Edge
field man who as soon as
he saw the card describing Burts,
located him. About 250 men
were in the posse. They brought
the negro back to this county,
and when they reached Bauskett's
Mill, half way between Aiken and
Trenton, at 5 o'clock this morning,
they swung up the brute, but tbe
rope broke and they had to tie him
up again. Then they fired into
his dead body and left for their
homes. Burts confessed that he
tried to cut Mrs. Weeks' thoat
and kill her. He claimed : they
bad words over the price of ' some
meal he was buyii g. Some of the
crowd wanted to keep the negro
until tonight and haye a big time,
but wiser counsel ^prevailed and
nothing barbarous was allowed.
The negro simply paid the penalty
for his dastardly attempt at crime.
LATER PARTICDRARS.
BurtB was caught near Ninety
six by a Mr. Cogburu, who receiv
ed the hundred dollars offered by
Mr. Weeks. On the return trip
the party rested at Trenton and a
uumber of ladies dressed and came
out to view the mau. On reaching
Bauskett's mill an hour before
daylight it was decided to lynch
him there. An oid clothesline w?e
used for a rope, and after it was
adjusted around his neck Burts
was ordered to climb up on the
limb of a big oak tree. He was
game, and without a murmur did
as he was told. Then the rope
end was tied to a small sapling and
the shooting commenced. Instead
of falling backwards as they ex
pecteh he fell forward to the ground
and had to be pul up again. The
body is still swinging there. Your
correspondent viewed it this
afternoon. Burts was a young
man, his forehead very flat and
his face brutish. His clothing
was ragged and riddled with
bullets, his right cheek was com
pletely shot away. To bis breast
was pinned a piece of paper, on
which was written "we will protect
our wives, mothers and daughters."
Two sticks on the railrod bank
across the road from the body had
handkerchiefs attached, evidently
to. attract the attention of the
engineers.
Some negroes in Aiken when
they heard of the search for Burts
tried to form a rescue party, but
nothiDg came of the effort.
Evidently the men engaged
were determined, and the sherff
himself cou^d not have got him.

Thousands Hare Kidney Trouble
and Don't Know it.
How Ta Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your,
water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or set
tling indicates an
r-T* unhealthy condl
jYrtion of the kid
\ y neys; if it stains
J-J your linen it ls
jj evidence of kid
ney trouble; too
frequent desire to
pass lt or pain in
the back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Bo.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for Its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes.
You may have a sample bottle of this
wonderful discovery
and a book that teilst
