The Latest Laureate.
For thousands of years men have
been makiDg brick out of clay,
and pretty good brick, too. But
recently a new kind has come into
vogue, lt is composed chiefly of
quartz saod.Jbouud together with a
small amount of lime. lu the
process of manufacture the com
pon ad is su bj eo ted to the influence j
of steam at high pressure. When
properly made this brick is said to
be hard, waterproof and able to |
resist the action of acids. A lack
of uniformity in the quality has j
been noticed, however. "Limes-j
tone brick," whioh are made in
cold, rat weather seem to give less
satisfaction than those produced
under other meteorological cot -
dations.
But there is now promise that j
this difficulty will soon be obviat
ed. A consular report from
Germany announces thal a Zurich
chemist, Wilhem Schwartz, has
found a way to get good results
every time. The secret lies in con
trolling the amount of moisture
admitted to the compound and in
maintaining the temperature with
in certain certain li mite for a time.
The former part of the process is
managed in a vacuum, so that no
dampness can be imparted by the
atmosphere. Herr Schwartz has
invented a machine of his own to
do the mixing. Much confidence
is expressed in the substantial
value of the innovation reported.- |

Solicitor Thurmond Commended.
The Edgefield Correspondent of
The Augusta Chroniole haB the
following to say about Solicitor
J. Wm. Thurmond who is candi
date for re-election :
Mr Thurmond has but ooe
opponent. The same man ran
against him four years ago, and
he (Thurmond) beat him in his
own county. It is safe to say that
Mr Thurmond's re-election is
assured. He deserves it. He has
made a faithful and able solicitor.
He isa man of fine legal ability.
As time roils on it will be seen
that he will steadily climb the
ladder of tame and will reach the
highest pinocle either in the line
of his profession or as a politician.
As solicitor of the 5th circuit,
he does his duty ably,
having nothing in view, but his
duty to the stale and its people,
while at the same time he is just
and fair. No solicitor ever gave
closer attention to his business
than he does. He is always found
at his post. He has a clear well
balanced mind and easily grasps
the points and law in all cases
that he handles. He not only
shows his legal ability as solicitor,
prosecuting criminals, but on the
civil side of the court he is equally
at home and has been employed
in the most important ca se it on
the civil side of the court. He is
a great worker and wven be has a
legal point to solve, he will work
at it persistently for lays and
weeks and when he comes
to a conclusion, it is safe to rely
upon his judgment. He is
generous and has a kind and for
bearing nature. The law firm of
Thurmond & Calhoun, at Edge
field, of which Solicitor Thurmond
is senion member, handles a
large civil business in Edgefield
?and Saluda county. Their practice
j is rapidly increasing. Mr Thur
mond is one of the men in South
Carolina that will in the future
heip to shape her history. Mark
j that down and remember it, aud
'watch for the Thurmond star.
Women's Necks.
"Are women's necks growing
longer?" aske the Philadelphia
Record. "A well kuown Phila
delphia artist says they are, and
he doesn't attribute it to the cus
tom vulgarly known as rubber
necking/either. He says che high
collar is responsible for it. All
the life studies and portraits of
women seen at student's exhibits
demonstrate tbi?- *I know a man,'
he said yesterday, 'who took a tape
measure to the last exhibit at the
Academy of Fine Arts and suc
ceeded in getting data for a com
parison of women's necks, painted
ten years ago, five years ago, and
at the present time, He claims
that the average feminine neck has
become elongated to the extent of
nearly an inch during the last five
years. Remember, this is his
claim, not mine, although it
doesn't seem altogether unreason
able when you come to think of
it."
Victor Blue, South Carolina's
gallant son, is Admiral Kempff's
flag lieutenant, and should the war
in China involve our forces, he
will be in the thick of it, as he
was at Santiago, says the Green
ville Mountaineer. Blue is the
best marksman in the United
States navy, which is equivalent
to saying that he is the best in the
world, and the heathen Chinee
had better keep out of the range of
the intrepid South Carolina boy,
William W. Shumate, son of Capt.
W. T. Shumate, of Greenville, is
on the Mariettta, which, at last
accounts, was at Cavite, expecting
orders to go the scene of the trouble
in China.
?Word -T
to Doctors
We have the highest regard for the
medical profession. Our preparations
are not sold for the purpose of antagon
izing them, but rather as au aid. We
lay it down as an established truth that
internal remedies are positively injuri
ous to expectant mothers. The distress
and discomforts experienced during the
months preceding childbirth can be al
leviated only by external treatment-by
applying a liniment that softens and re
laxes the over-strained muscles. We
make and sell such a liniment, com
bining the ingredients in a manner
hithorto unknown, and call it
Mother s Friend
We know that in thousands of cases
it has proved more than a blessing to
expectant mothers. It overcomes morn
ing sickness. It relieves the sense of
tightness. Headaches cease, and dan
ger from Swollen, Hard and Rising
Breasts is avoided. Labor itself is
shortened and shorn of most of the pain.
We know that many doctors recom
mend it, and we know that multitudes
of women go to the drug store's and buy
it because they are sure their physicians
have no objections. We ask a trial
just a fair test. There is no possible
chance of injury being the result, be
cause Mother's Friend is scientific
ally compounded. It is sold at $i a bot
tie, and should be used during most of
the period of gestation, although great
relief is experienced if usad only a short
time before childbirth. Send for our il
lustrated book about Mother's Friend.

KERMAN MINISTER
REPORTEE MURDERED.
There Are No Ameliorating
Circumstances-Gov
ernment at Pekin
is Very Rotten.
Washington, July 1.-Today's
advices to the state department
made up of two telegrams from
Consul General Goodnow at
Shanghai the foreign ministers at
Pekin along one day further in
safety, showing that they were
still alive with the probable ex
ception of the German minister,
who it seems likely has baen
murdered some days prior to the
latest advicos.Some encouragement
is drawn by the officials from the
fact that other ministers were al ive
on the later date for officials be
lieve that the diplomatic corps at
Pakin could not have been
preserved through the fury of the
first stages of the outbreak only to
fall victims to sober second
thought. There is also at least
the indication that the Chinese
government it self was protecting
them.
On the other hand, the state- ,
ments that the notoriously anti
foreign Prince Tuan was in com- ,
plete control at Pekin, was regard- j
as au exceedingly grave develop
ments tending to fix clearly the j
responsibility for the happenings
of the past three weeks directly {
upon the Pekin government. An j
ameliorating fact is the refusal of {
the great viceroys, themselves of t
almost absolute power in their .
provinces, to be controlled from t
Pekin in thair attitude toward j
foreigners. (
? high official of the state de- (
partment said today that there is (
nothing now to do but to follow j
out the course the state department ;
already has adopted, namely, to t
have the United States consuls 1
put themselves in communication (
with the viceroys of the provinces ; ]
treating the central government at ?
Pekin as incapacitated for ad- i
ministrative work and meanwhile J
doing all in their power to protect :
the foreigners in their respective
districts. The signs of an amica
ble disposition on the part of
these viceroys is probably the i
basis for the hope that they can be
induced at least to stand neutral
and keep their provinces in Drder |
if it shall bo necessary to direct
hostilities energetically against
the Pekin government.
This course seems to be abso
lutely necessary now, unless *
developments in the immediate
future demonstrate the in
accuiacy of Consul General ?
Goodnow's advices relative to the j
status of affairs at Pekin. There <
is authority for the statement that j
our government feels that what ?
must be done at once is to drive 1
forward a reliei force to Pekin, <
regardless of the strength required, j
So far it has not been regarded <
as necessary to do more in the way
of military preparations to this
end than has been done, and '
i
consequently no further roenforce- ,
ments have been ordered to Taku. 1
There is doubt here as to the !
sufficiency of the force now there 1
to undertake the work.
Admiral Kempff yesterday re
ported that 14,000 men of all arms
were ashore, without stating
definitely where they were. It is
not known whether or not the ee- ;
cond expedition directed against
Pekin has yet started from Taku
or Tien Tsin. In this state of
ignorance as to the military situa
tion, it is not possible to act intelli
gently from Washington in the
direction of adding to our naval
and miltary strength beyond the
sailors, marines and regular
soldiers already under orders for
China. It would seem that to
accomplish effective work some
kind of an understanding must he j
reached among the powers interest
beyond the rather vague one under j
which they are now proceeding.
A small foreign force made up
of different nationalities working
under a tangible understanding
and perhaps even under one
generalship, might accomplish j
greater things than more numerous I
forces working independently and i
if it is possible to reach an accord
between tho powers as to the pre
cise objects of thi? next military
Bxpediton, treating perhaps only I
of the immediate objecta of reliev
ing the ministers and other foreig
ners who are in danger, and leav
ing other great questions as to the
future of China to be dealt with
hereafter, it is probable that the
United States will cheerfully ad
here. This government has not
yet regarded the developments as
demanding the assembling of j
congress in extraordinary session i
to declare war, and it is possible
that the dispatch of more ree n force
men ts to China from Manila and
the United States may not requiie
congressional action, as long as
the object is strictly to succor
American citizens in distress and]
danger.

GERMAN MINISTER MURDERED.
Shanghai, July 1-The British
consul at Chefoo telegraphs that
Baron von Ketteier, German min
ister at Pekin, was murdered by
native troops June 18. Three
legations-it is not stated which
were still undestroyed June 23.
The American consul here states
that Yung Lu telegraphed June
26 that the other ministers were
Rafe that morniug, but the situa
tion was desperate, ai.d he doubled
