A big order has been placed for
rails and other materials by Russia
for the Eastern Chinese railroad.
It is qpw said that the German
sentiment is etrcBgly in favor of
friendly relations with the United
States.
Many soldiers who have been discharged
from the volunteer service
of Uncle Sam, have re enlisted in the
regular army.
Two more mills have been shut
down in Augusta and there are now
about six thousand operatives uniinployed
in and argund that city.
The Greenville Mountaineer wants
to kBow if this government is a Republic
or an Empire ? It is a Republic
in theory and an Empire in practice.
There is a great clamor just now
to reduce taxes. If we had less talk
and more reduction more good would
be accomplished.

The bill providing for an increase
of the standing army of this country
has been reported to the National
House of Representatives by Chairman
Hull.
Commodore Cromwell, commandant
of the new naval station at Havana,
has notified the naval department
that he has hoisted his fiag cn
the auxiliary cruiser Resolute, which
has just arrived in that port. The
vessel will remain at Havana as a

North Carolina, not contended
? with having robbed South Carolina
of a President, now seeks to steal the
birth place of Victor Blue, the gal
iant young South Carolinian, who
so gallantly distinguished himself in
the Spanish-American war. The
cheek of North Carolina is as great
as the kick of the muie.
The terms of peace between Spain
and the United States, which were
signed by the peace commissions in
Paris, have been delivered by commissioner
Day to President McKinley.
The contents of the document,
however, will not be made known
until it is submitted to the Senate.
Two of the Spanish ships suok by
^ Admiral Dewey, which have recently
been raised, have arrived at Hong
Kong. After being thoroughly repaired
they will be kept in Dewey's
fleet on account of their peculiar fit
cess for the waters of the Archipelego.

Admiral Schley, the Santiago hero
has been presented with a costly and
vary valuable sword by hi3 admirers
in Pennsylvania, New Jersey afid
Delaware. Although the adminisv
tration has done him an just and
Btudied wrong to parade the weakness
of its favorite SampsoD, the people
love and esteem the services of
ri ? i
?sc a ley.
State Superintendent of Public
Instruction of New York, C. H
Skinner, in a recent decision, has
decided that no sisters of charity of
the Roman Catholic church, wiU be
permitted to teach in the free public
schools of that State while wearing
the garb of their sisterhood, notwithstanding
the fact that we live in a
country whose boast is religious
liberty where every person is pre^
sumed to worship their God according
to the dictates of their own con^
5 science.
Ethan E. Hitchcock, the great
grandson of the leader of the
famous Green Mountain Boys,
whose dashing bravery during the
Revolutionary war won for them a
world wide reputation, has been
? offered the Secretary of the Iuterior
Portforlio vice Bliss, resigned. Hitch
cock is now United States Ambassador
at the Court of Russia in St.
Petersburg, and his becali papers
ba7e been forwarded to him. His
successor to his present office has not
} et been named.
Many a Christmas pleasure of ihi
politician whose lease on his j ;b is
about to expire, have been subserved
to the effort to strengthen the political
fences in weak places and keep
the "pig in clover" yet awhile longer.
"When heaven was resounding with
the melody of the "new song" and
the eaith was filled with the glad
itfrain of "peace on earth and good
will toward men,v the politicians

to keep their hands on the
public teat. Such is life, while one
part of the people are happy another
part are unhappy.
Several members (f the he*vy
| artillery stationed at points along
the cost of this State, have been
honorably discharged.
The Filipino envoys are back in
i this country and they are still bitterly
opposed to annexation. Thoy say
{ that their people want nothing but
freedom, pure and simple.
There are some ugly indignities
daily committed on Spanish business
men who were noil combatant in the
late skirmish between America and
Spain, by the Cuban rabble. It is
encumbent upon the United States,
for tbe sake of humanity and in the
name of freedom and Christian civilization
to protect those helpless people
and put a stop to these indignities.
The two of three weeks of Con!
gress has been consumed almost entirely
in the disposal of the issues
arising out of the late war, and the
annexation of Hawaii. But little if
any other business of public interest
has been transacted and is probable
that no other business except tbat in
reference to the Spanish march over
will receive the attention of our
solons. The war, be it understood
is now a popular hobby, and tbe politicians
are ridiDg it for all it is
worth.
The President has signed the bill
regulating the sittings of the United
States court in this State. Tbe time
of their conveyance has been changed
so as to suit the conveniences of the
Judges and perhaps those of the
common people.
The operatives, who are cut on a
strike, have issued a stroDg appeal to
the textile workers of the country
for financial assistance in prolonging
the righteous fight against the unjust
encroachment of capital upon
their rights of labor. These strikers,
who are skilled, industrious and honest
laborers have pitched their con
tentions on the high grounds of
justice and right and claim that their
wages have been reduced to such
figures that it is impossible to support
themselves with any degree of
respectability and that to continue
work at the wages offered "means
simply poor food, ragged clothes,
sickness and all the other evils which
poverty brings." The appeal states
the presenKsituation concisely and
eloquently and it will doubtless
strike a responsive chord in the heait
of all who believe that labor should
be elevated rather than degraded and
that the laborer is worthy of his hire
so as make it content and consequently
reliable. One sentence in
particular is very pathetically, aswtl!
as truthfully put, which is as follows:
"Brother laborers, we appeal to you
in our distress. Oar cry is the cry
of the distressed. We come to you
as brothers. You know our condi
tion. Can you turn us away in oui
greatest time cf need? Will you
turn us away empty handed?" Ail
communications and contributions
should be addressed to Forrest Gray,
chairman of the relief committer,
Augusta, Ga.
Probably the easist habit to acquire
and one of the hardest to get rid of
is the habit of croakiDg. It is also
one of the most disagreeable as well
as-unplesant ones and the person who
is addicted to this habit has our
deepest commiseration and profoundest
sympathy. To the croaker the
refulgent rays of the glorious sun
I 1 ! 1'i 1 1 # A
give3 warmtn, vitality ana uio to
| the world and the rain drops which
| fall in showers from the clouds above
to revive, refresh and distribute the
life sustaining element to thirsty nature
are alike to him. He can see
nothing good in the bestowal of
these gifts by a thoughtful creator
for the health, happiness and enjoyment
of mankind. They are only
harbingers of direful evil. If the
sun shines too hotly the crops will
surely burn up and ruin haunts his
waking thoughts and midnight
dreams. If from his gloomy forebodings
thel'e is too much rain everything
will be drowned out and the shadowy
outlines of the poor house rises
before his vision to make him more
miserable and to add more dreariness
and darkness to his lift's pathway.
For him life is made up of a succession
of thorns and thistles and
Innalmooo qyi/3 rlicor\nr>tnf mcnfc liL'O

de&d men's bones, to serve as mile
stones in the journey of life. To
him comes no genial warmth and
brightness which flows from the
fountains of peace, happiness and
contentment, cheering those around
him with that cheerfulness which
makes life worth living and turns
the wildness and desolation of this
world into the beautful garden of
happiness filled with may bright
hued flowers to dispense thefragrace
of their richness and make it a tit
dwelling place for man.

11:77 to Curs Meat.
A J Ei.rhaug<?.
Saltpeter is used in meat curing
because il has antiseptic properties,
and gives a bright red color to the
meat. It does not appear to be
harmful to consumers in the quantities
which are used for this purpose.
Common salt preserves meat by
withdrawing water from its fibres,
and by reason of its antiseptic properties.
Sugar also helps to displace
' < -3J. i. It.
[ water, aDd it3 lasieoueu auus iu ine
! agreeable fl ivor of the meat.
1 The disadvantage of usiDg ealt is
that it withdraws from the meat
seme of the best and most essential
portions of the juices.
Various suggestions have been
made to overcome this, in a measure.
The one made by Leibig was that
dry rubbing with salt should be discontinued
that the fresh meat should,
instead, be placed in a strong brioe
made up of common salt, Chili-saltpeter,
potassium chicride, and meat
extract. The salt used should be
previously purified by application of
sodieum phosphate whereby the
calcium and magnesium possibly present
as impurities will be thrown

This great book tells all about a medicine
that is an unfailing cure for all weakness
and disease of the delicate organs distinctly
feminine. That medicine is Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. During the past

have used it with marvelous results. It
imparts health, vigor, virility, strength and
elasticity to the organs that bear the burdens
of maternity. It fits for wifehood and
motherhood. Taken during the period of
gestatioft, it m^es the coming of baby easy
and almost painless. It completely banishes
the pain and misery that are the result
of a woman's neglecting her womanly
health. An honest medicine dealer will
give you what you ask for, and not try to
persuade you to take some inferior substitute
for the little added profit he may
make thereon.
Mrs. Jas. Schafiuer. of Freemansburg, Northampton
Co., Pa., writes: " It is with pleasure
that I write to lrt you know the great good I
have received from your medicines and the local
self-treatment at home. I was troubled with
female weakness, had pains in my back all the
time, sometimes so severe that I could not lie in
bed at night. I tried different doctors but-they
conld not help me. Then my husband got Dr.
Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser, and
induced me to try Dr. Pierce's medicines. After
taking six bottles of the ' Favorite Prescription'
I feci like a new woman."
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation.
Constipation is the cause of many
diseases. Cure the cause and you cure the
disease. . One Pellet" is a gentle laxative,
and two a mild cathartic. Druggists
sell them, and nothing is '"just as good."

Brooks Easterling, living near here, j
was buried at Calvary Methodist J
church. She was married only a
year and left a little infant only a
few hours old. She was a Christian
girl and faithful wife and in early
life became a member of the Baptist
church and livtd her faith consistently.
She was the daughter of that
worthy citizen of Cedar Creek, Jcs.
Williamson.
On Wednesday night of 14^ la3t
at 12 o'clock Mrs. Caroline R. Dowling
after a severe struggle of about
half of an hour q iietly peseecl
away. Mrs. Dowling was the widow
of Aaron D. Dowling who preceeded
her several years to the promised
land. She wa3 nearly sixty years of
age, and was the mother of seven
children all of whom are still alive.
She and her husband both represented
a long line of Baptist ancestry
and both of'them in early life, before
marriage, professed the faith of their
fathers and became life members of
that belief. She lived in the home
of her childhood till after the marriage
of her eldest daughter, Leila E.
Dowling to D. J. Knotts. Soon |
after this she rented her plice afc
Norway in Orangeburg county, and
made the home of her children her
home till her death. She was laid
to rest beside her kindred in the
graveyard of the Willow Swamp
church, near Norway, of which she
was the greater of her life a member
Her children expect very soon to remove
their father's remains from the
Dowling family graveyard in Barnwell
county and place them beside
their mother's quiet bedside, where
a place has been left for that purpose,
that the husband and companion may

and father, brothers and sisters. She
lived to see the last of her children
become members of the christian
church.
The maDy friends of our patriotic
and public-spirited fellow-citizen,
Banian Cheney regrets very much to
learn of his extremely critical condition.
Notwithstanding the medical
skill of his physician, Dr. Brooker,
"the Keir will soon strike the other
shore and our christian friend will
join with those who have gone before.
Squire Cheney has passed his three
score and ten and is now going on
borrowed time.
The Methodist Conference has returned
Rev. T. J. McFarlane to this
circuit for another year to the satisfaction
and delight of a very large
majority of the laymen of his fraternity.
Mr. Daniel Kinsler of Brookland,
has been down in this community
buying up cattle for his pasture on
the CoDgaree and on Saturday he
carried away some fifteen head.
The people on Swansea expect to
have a "dime reading" on Friday
night at the Gantt Hotel.
On last Monday, Willie Horsey
left here to go to his brother John
Horsey, who has been two years in
Florida and Willie expects to make
his future home there. Tbey are
the sons of Samuel Horsey who lives
near Swansea and if they prove
worthy of their father's record here,
we will have no cause to be ashamed
of these sons of Carolina in their newhome.

??? If I A |
I he Kidney uompiexion.
The pale, sallow, sunken-cheeked, distressed-looking
people ,\ou so often meet
are afflicted with "Kidney Complexion."
Their kidneys are turning to a parsnip
color. So is their complexion
They m.y also have indigestion, or suff.r
from sleeplessness, rheumat sra, nturalgia,
brain trouble, nervous exhaustion and
sometimes the heart acts badly.
The cause is weak, unhealthy kidneys.
Usually the sufferer from kidi.ey disease
does not find out what the trouble is until
it is almost too late, because the first symp
toms 8re so like mild sickness that they do
not think they need a medicine or a do:tor
until they find themselves sick in bed
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Koot will build up
and strengthen their weak and diseased
kidneys purify their disecs d. kidney pois
oned b'ood, clear their complexion and soon
they wi.l enjoy bett* r health.
