The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to onre
in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's
Catarrb Uure is tne omy poBiuve cure uuw
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucoas surfaces of
.the system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the pa- ;
tient strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers that they 'jfifer
One Hundred Hollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

we are looking forward for homemade

will soon be to plow. Everybody has
good gardens, and it won't be long
before we can hear the sound of the
sugar pea pot boil, which we so dearly
love. [Which do you mean, the

Spring time is here, we love to

who died of pneumonia, of which he
only suffered three days, l*is funeral
was on Wednesday 10 a. m. Jttev. js.

were that of young men of his
age which made it very appropriate.

A small party of fishermen spent a
night recently at Mr. W. Noah Lucas'
pond on Scouter Creek. On their
trot line with a successful catch they
first caught a cat fish and presently
came along a trout measuring 29J
inches in length, which swallowed the
catfish, and he was caught. Ia the
party were the champion fishermen
Messrs. W. L. Gible and A. P. Corley,
of Irene. Tne latter catches his
fish while up a tree with bis rifle and
the former is a long faith fisherman

Application for Pardon.
We notice among a number of applicants
for pardons before Governor
Heyward and the board, is Laurence
Coleman, colored, of Bateeburg, who
was convicted of forging an order on
J. I. Smith, superintendent of the
Southern Railway Co , June 21,1902,
passing said order on L. C. Hartly,
merchant. There were two cases
and one was carried over. It is
claimed in the application that he
was sentenced to serve six years, and
that he has already served four of
them. Sis petition is well Bigned,
including among others Judge and
Solicitor who were engaged in the
case.

The conference was very largely

It was significant that one of the

SHOOTING- IN CHAPIN.
Prominent Men Empty Revolvers at
Each Other.
A highly sensational shooting
scrape between two prominent men,
both well known in Columbia, occurred
at 9 o'clock this morning at Chapin,
a small station on the C, N. &
L road, as the mixed freight and
passenger train stopped there on its
way into Columbia from Laurens.
Dr. Rowland K. Smith was in the
baggage coach on his way to Columbia,
where his father lives, but the
passengers in the coach next to it
were completely taken by surprise by
a regular f usilade of revolver shots
between Dr. Smith and his fellowtownsman
of Chapin, T. M. Brown,
who opened up on bis assailant from
near the tracks.
The two men emptied their revolvers
at each other, but not a shot took
effect, thongh both coaches have
marks of the fray. Dr. Smith came
on to Columbia, Mr. Brown remaining
at Chapin.
The passengers were indignant
about the matter, and on the arrival
of the train here President I. D.

From the heated words that passed
between the combatants and from
other facts spoken of at Chapin it is
understood the trouble between the
two men arose over relations AL.
Brown understands have been existing
between Dr. Smith and Mrs.
Brown. Mrs. Brown is said to be
now in Laurens.
Dr. Smith is a married man. His
father is one of the best men in the
community.?Record, May 3.

Two Millions Behind is the April
Report.
Washington, May 3.?There was
an excess of government expenditures
over receipts duriDg the month of
April amounting to nearly two millions.
The treasury surplus of the
fiscal year to date, however, amounts

disaster, calling for the expenditure
of emergency funds by the federal
government, is responsible for the
April deficit. It is expected that
there will be ? surplus during May
and June and that the surplus for the
fiscal year will be at least fifteen millions.
April receipts were $15,092,867
ar?d the disbursements were
