rsMfrnmriiwioiM The Le^ngton Dispatch. Wednesday, Jnne 26.1907. SESATOB B. B. TILLMAN IS A RICH MAN. Member of One of the Best Families in South Carolina?By Birth and > Education a Polished GentlemanSuccess in Politics and on the Lecturer's Platform. It will doubtless surprise many people to know thic. among the rich men of the senate is Mr. Tillman of South fho flAnftt/ir who is nnnnlar. ly pictured as standing with his everxeady pitchfork to plunge into every man who dares oppose him, and whose addresses in the senate?vigorous, rough and at times almost coarse in their language?make some people shudder. Mr. Tillman, it will be assumed, is a plain man of the people, and In many quarters it is imagined that he has worked his way to his jf present exalted station from the ranks of the "poor whites"?that unhappy class in the south that is regarded with pity even by the negroes. As a matter of fact Mr. Tillman is a member of one of the very best f ami-1 lies of South Carolina, and the Till- { man estate is one of the finest in the south. The family is an old one and * has been prominent in the state for generations. A brother of Mr. Tillman served in congress many years. A son of Mr. Millman is married to a granddaughter of that famous Governor Pickens who, as minister to Russia in the late fifties, was regarded as the foremost member of the diplomatic corps at St. Petersburg, ond whose daughter, Douschka, who was born there, was the pet of Czar's family. Mr. Pickens, returning to South Carolina in 1860, was elected p' governor of that State, and it was he who demanded of Major Anderson the surrender of Fort Sumter. OF ARISTOCRATIC FAMILY. | fMr. Tillman is by birth and by education a polished gentleman. When he chose to enter politics in opposition to the Huguenot oligarchy that ruled South Carolina with a rod of iron he adopted as his platform the former. His first addresses^ to the people of South Carolina were made in defense of his proposition that the State should make generous provision for agricultural colleges, where the farmers could educate their boys. < His success taught him the value of the support of the <4plain people" in South Carolina. the senate Mr. Tillman, is respited as an honest and sincere Lc^mpion of the rights of the people, *f-aad his occasional outbursts of violent . and uncouth language are deeply re\ gretted by those who know him best. - Hodman is more familiar, with all the " engaging conventionalities of social intercourse, and few men in the senate, are better.versed in literature and history, Moreover, as already stated, Mr. Tillman is growing richer every day. He is one of the popular lecturers of today. Last year he averaged $3,500 a month from his lectures, and this year he will be even more successful, for he has a tour that began on the night of the Monday that saw the close of congress itmII nnnfinnp almost without Sullivan county, to the side of his good wife down at the hen house yesterday. When he arrived he saw his better half poking a black mass in the bottom of one of the nests. t "Them's no shoestrings," shouted Hiram. "Them's young snakes." Hiram unwound the animated coil and the reptiles started in a dozen directions. Johnnie and Willie, their two hopefuls, confessed that they had placed snake eggs under the setting hens. A two-inch shingle properly applied removed the wrinkles from two pairs of tenated trousers.?New York World.

Little Martha Miller was born Nov. 22,1905, and departed this life Jnne 3, 1907, making her pilgrimage here on this earth one year, six months and fifteen days. She was a sweet little angle which came to Mr. and Mrs. George Miller's home to stay but a short while. God took her to himself in the heavens above forever and ever. She leaves a father, mother, four sisters, one brother and a host of other relatives to mourn her death. We can truly sympathize with the parents and family in the loss of their dear one. None but those who have sat in the shadow of a great bereavement can justly weigh such a sorrow as this. "Wherefore should we make our moan, Now the darling child is dead? She to early rest is gone, She to paradise is fled. Faith cries out, it is the Lord, Let Him do as seems to Him good! Be thy holy name adored; 1 Take, the gift a while bestowed. God forbids her longer stay, Take the child no longer mine; God has taken her away, Thine she is forever Thine." By her Auntie?L. O. C. Peak, S. C., June 14. The Magic No. 3.

Protects Mother; Slays Bis Father. At Providence, Rhode Island, last week, while defending his mother from a murderous attack, . Ralph Crumb, aged 19, killed his father. According to Mrs. Crumb's story, i her husband became suddenly insane. Rising from bed, he started after his wife and attacked her with a chair. The son, hearing his mother's cries, took up a shotgun that, stood in the corner and struck his father a terific blow on the head, fracturing his skull.

' WORKING WHAT THEY 5 t Women for the most part spend their lives at home, and it is these women who are willing and ambitious that their homes shall be kept neat and pretty, their children well dressed and tidy, who do their own cooking, . sweeping, dusting* and often washing, ironing and sewing for the entire family, who call for our sympathy. Truly the work of such a woman it "never done" and is it any wonder that she breaks down at the end of a few years, the back begins to ache, there is a displacement, inflammation or ulceration of the abdominal organs, a female weakness is brought on, and the struggle of that wife and mother trt enntinue her duties is nitiful. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, is the exact medicine a woman needs whose strength is overtaxed. It keeps the feminine organs in a strong and healthy condition. In preparing for childbirth and recuperating therefrom it is most efficient. It carries a woman safely through the change of life and in making her strong and well assists her to be a good wife and mother. Mrs. Sadie Abbott, of Jeanhette, pa., writes: .Dear Mrs. Pinkham? "I suffered severely with pain every month and also a pain in my left side. My doctor prescribed for me but did me no *ood; a friend advised Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I wrote you in /egard to my condition. I followed your advice and am a perfectly well woman. The pains have all disappeared and I cannot recommend your medicine too highly." Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Comp i > Fifteen Cent Cotton. A press report from Washington a few days ago says: "In the early future I look for fifteen-cent cotton, and it is all owing to the deplorable condition of the cotton crop of Texas and the crops in other States that I have seen." Such were the words of Representative Burleson, of Texas, a member of nn armronriations of the House of Representatives. "I do not think.that the condition of the crop in Sonth Carolina can be as bad as it is in Texas," said Mr. Burleson- ' ... "And it is for this reason. Generally cotton is spoken of as to its relative condition. In Texas, at this time last year, cotton was rated as at 84; now it is rated at 70. There is a loss from last year of 14 per cent. That is surely a deplorable condition for .the prospect of a crop in a State that should produce the largest crop of any State of all the. Southland: Some persons, I have heard, predict that cotton would go to 20 cents; but I prefer to be on the conservative side and place it. at 15 cents. Though I do not say that it will not go higher." ? CATARRH and Catarrhal Headaches are quickly relieved by Nosena.
