Calhou's Old Horn*. 4i'South Carolina has a tract of ground which it is preserving for the Southern children of coming generations, as the Government is saving Mount Vernon for those of the nation," said W. D. Evans, of Clemson, S. C. "I refer to the former home of John C. Calhoun. Calhoun's home was a beautiful estate of 1,100 acres. A part of the land is now occupied by , Clemson College, and the campus is one of the largest and most beautiful of any college in America. The State has taken steps to preserve the Calhoun property, and makes annual appropriations for keeping the fgrounds and the old house and outbuildings in order. It is a typical Southern man- 1 sion, with wide verandas, and was the scene of many a notable gathering in the lifetime of South Carolina's most beloved and famous statesman. 4'The Calhoun home is dear to the hearts of all South Carolinians, for we shall always look with reverence upon the memory of one of America's greatest men, as Calhoun was universally conceded to be."

Derri )k's Drug Store and C. E. Corley. Fine Crops. Congressman Patterson was in Augusta on Monday, and said to the Chronicle regarding the crops. "Our people from Allendale, Blackville, Barnwell and Wiiliston territory have made fortunes, almost from cantaloupes this season. One of my constituents at Blackville, I learn, made over $20,000 clear, and at Barnwell a | number of our farmers made good big money. At Allendale along the lines of the Southern and Coast Line, the success in the watermelon belt has been phenomenal. "In addition to that great fortune," he continued, "the general crops throughout the entire Second District are so fine that we will have more prosperity in Aiken, Barnwell, Bamberg and Edgefield counties than we have enjoyed in years. The farmers all feel good, owe very little, and see their way clear to handsome profits." "The truth is we are becoming better farmers. We are making more corn on twenty acres than we former ly made on fifty acres. And the product is better now than it used to be. "Cotton is all right too. Early cotton is out of woods." But the late crop is not. We have been having a little too much rain the last few days and the weather is a little too cool. But with plenty of sunshine from now on there will be but one problemhow to get the cotton picked out. Eczema. For the good of those suffering with eczema or other such trouble, I wish to say, my wife had something of that kind and after using the doctors' remedies for some time concluded to try Chamberlain's Salve, and it proved to be better than anything she had tried. For sale by the Kaufmann Drug Co. Cruelty to Animals. Cruelty to animals is a crime which i9 punishable by a pretty good fine, and yet there is always some cases which never come up before the proper authorities. There are cases, however, which come up for trial from time to time, and this morning there was a case which was tried by Mayor Doyle. Two negroes, employed by a local market, were on their way to the butcher pen with a cow yesterday afternoon, and were treating the animal in a most cruel manner. The cow was somewhat stubborn and it was with some difficulty that it could be driven along. All sorts of means were used to drive the cow to the pen, and at la9t the negro who was driving the cow began using his butcher knife on the animal to urge him along. The cow was cut once or twice in the neck and several times on the tail.? Orangeburg Evening New9. Sis Victims ia Hospital.

Men Past Sixty in Danger More than half of mankind over sixty vears of age suffer from kidney and bladder disorders, usually enlargement of prostate glands. This is both painful and dangerous, and Foley's Kidney Cure should be taken at the first sign of danger, as it corrects irregularities and has cured many old men of this disease.

Derrick's Drug Store. 0m a i J nam urew Attacjssa ay aaraged Foreigners. Saline Grove, Pa., Aug. 15.?Pennsylvania railroad passenger train crew, all from Sunbury, last night had a thrilling experience at Fulton station, where they were attacked by a mob of about 75 foreigners, men and women, who tried to assault them with stones and clubs because the train killed a man. That the crew escaped injury was due to their presence of mind in hurriedly moving the train away from the scene. When the crew stopped to put the body in the baggage car, Italians began to cry in chorus, "Me kill you," and in a few moments a mob of at least 75 had congregated and attacked the crew. Conductor Ray, appreciating the danger surrounding him and his crew, lost no time and sped onward with his train. Headache and constipation disappear when Rings Liver Pills are used.
