Tho record of seismio disastors oxtend back boyond the Christian ora ; but ono of tho most notable is tho eruption of Mount Vesuvius, which in tho year 70, destroyed thc cities of Herculaneum and Pompeii? One of tho most disastrous earth quakes of modern times was that which destroyed tho city of Lisbon in tho year 1755. Nearly all of the houses in tho city wore thrown to tho ground. Thousands of people were buried in the ruins. But the most terrible feature of this occasion was tho great tidal wave that fol lowed. In all 70,000 peoplo lost their lives. In 1(509 Lisbon had lost 80,000 of her people from the same cause. In 1032 Sicily lost 100,000 peoplo on account of an earthquake, aud during tho last century '200,000 peoplo were killed in and around Tokio, Japan. Earthquakes have been frequent in the Philippine islands, but not a great many lives have been lost there on that account.. Previous to the recent disaster at St. Pierre, thc most tcrriblo similar occurrence of recent years, was on the Malay peninsula in tho year 1883, when thc volcano of Krakatoa, on the island of tho same name, began to send forth fire, ashes and lava, and kept it. up for nearly four months. The ashes were carried by the upper air currents entirely around the' globe, and everywhere people no ticed for months a peculiar twilight glow that has generally been assigned to tins cause. The most severo earthquake that has ever been expe rienced in the United States, was that which shook Charleston in 1880, destroying ll lives and property to the value of $5,000,000. It is quite possible that when all the tacts are in -from the vicinity of Martinique, the disaster will be found to equal anything of the kind that has ever been known. To Settle Old State Bond Question. At the last session of tho Legisla ture a joint resolution was intro duced by Senator Graydon, of Abbe ville, instructing the State Treasurer to mark off of his books and mark as non-refundable certain missing State bonds which were issued in aid of tho Pine Ridge railroad before the war. The bonds, which belonged to the old State bank, were stolen by Sher man's raiders and are supposed to have been lost. Repeated efforts have been made to get new bonds issued, but these efforts have always failed. The matter has been coining up before the Legislature for years, and thc resolution was introduced and passed for the purpose of get ting rid of the whole business. Now Governor McSweeney has vetoed thc resolution. In doing so he said in explanation of his action : "In view of tho position I have taken all along that thc bonds on the books of the State Treasurer as old bonds not findable, Act 1800, Hine Ridge bonds, $37,000, consti tute a*valid debt against thc State and should be paid to some one, I cannot approve the joint resolution authorizing and requiring the State Treasurer to write off Iiis books these bonds. I understand that from the opinion of the Attorney General this resolution is not unconstitu tional, and further that 'the entry on tjie State Treasurer's books consti tute no part of the contract and expunging it from the books (loos not impair tho obligation of tho contract,' and that such act could not havo any 'legal effect upon tho parties claim ing any right in thc bonds,' nor would 'it preclude them from again petitioning the Legislature for relief.' Still in my opinion it would have tho appearance of repudiation, and ns it has no legal effect upon the partios I can see no good to be ac complished by the resolution and therefore I will not approve it." A little girl was spending the night away from home. At bedtime she kneeled at her hostess' knee to say her prayers, expecting the usual prompting, finding Mrs. P?- un able to help her out, she continued thus: "Please God 'cuse mc ; I can't rcr'ember my prayers, and I am slaying with a lady that don't know any."

It appears to Arnold that a great change has passed over Uer, for seemingly she has grown cold and indifferent toward him. Sho no longer seems to bestow that love and confidence upon him that sho once did, but nevertheless he longs, wishes and prays for that effection and trust. Ile loves her with all his boyish heart, not so much the love of a brother for a sister as that of a lover for his sweetheart. His affec tion may be classed as idolatry, for she is the idol of his every thought and act. Ile does not mention this to her, for he is confident that she cannot return that lovo which he bestows upon her and is too proud hearted to speak on so touching a subject, being sure of a rejection. Finally the day of separation arrives, for he must enter ono collego and she another. Thoy bid farewoll to home, relatives and friends and go to begin a now life, a college lifo. They enter the coach together, and travel part of tho distance with each other, while they are compelled to go the remaining miles apart. Ar nold thinks it almost impossible to part *with Her for so many montlis. His heart yearns for thc love of this graceful creature, and he determines I to tell her at once what is nearest his heart, even though ho must suffer tho consequences of a refusal, but when ho attempts to speak of this Iiis heart beats heavily and a large lump arises in bis throat, making it difficult for him to open his heart before her, his ideal. She, too, seems to know what ho attempts to tell and avoids it by chatting merrily on other subjects. "O, Her!" he at last begins, deter mined to carry his point, "little sis ter, why dc you Bhun Arnold whom you used to love ? Why liavo you lost confidence in him and ceased to treat .him as you onco did? Uer, I beseech you to bestow some love upon Arnold and think of him whon you aro at college. Won't you promiso to do thia?" "Arnold, how can you speak so when you know I lovo you almost as a brother and trust you, too ? But I cannot treat you as I did when I was a child ; I am oidor now. "Darling Her , I cannot keep my sccrot any longer. I must tell you what has been in my heart so long ; that my lovo for yon is greater than that of a brother for a sister ; it is tho lovo of a lover for his sweetheart. Just tell mo that you love mo, if only a little, and I'll bo tho happiest boy in tho wholo universe. It will enable mo to perform my collogo duties botter, for tho happy thought will inspiro mo as I study." "Yes, Arnold, I love you devotedly as a brothor, but, f?s for the affection that you wish from me, I must say, I cannot give it." "O, Herl may I not hopo? Qivo mo a little encouragement. Won't you ondoavor to care for mc? I will bo miserablo without your promiso." As theso words were spokon his body trembled with emotion and one of his hands tightly clasped hors, but v.'heri she saw his extreme sorrow her heart was touched and went out to him in sicero sympathy, so she offered no resistance. It was a sevoro trial and caused much sorrow and self-control for her to speak thus to ono who had completely won her ly- way ^ treat a case of Sore ) kill disease germs r throat action is to ll of water put into in Mustang n?ment liront at frequent intervals. ? throat thoroughly with the Uni- I some on a soft cloth and wrap/ TIVE CURE. 1 91.00 a bottlo. ng been troubled with a running deer.

Sho know that she loved him, but was too young to bo in love and must endeavor to forgot and crush that affection, though, when the subject was mentioned, all of tho lovo sprung up afresh whon she thought it had been destroyed. Only her youth kept back the words which would make him so happy. Her j sorrow was as great as his when sin percoived him thus, therefore she could not refrain from gently placing j his hands within her own soft ones. "Arnold," she said in tho same confiding tone she used to call him in her childhood. He raised his bright, blue eyes, which wero now filled with tears, toward her spark ling brown ones. "O, Arnold 1" she continued, "you have no idea how it grieves r.ie to see my brother thus and to know that I caused it." Her sympathetic heart was touched and went out to him in pity. She was always grieved to observo tho sorrows of othors. "How can you expect to win my promise to bo your brido when I have no love in my heart to bestow upon you ? I shall always caro for ] you as a brother, but, as for the affection that you wish to gain from me, I must say, I can never give it. Both you and I would be unhappy should we bo united by the holy j bonds of matrimony without love. I will always be a true and devoted sister to you, but nothing more You must surely seo how absurd tho idea of our being companions for lifo appears, and, therefore, forget mo only as a sister. Lot us drop this subject and bo ns true friends ns of old. May wo not?" "Givo mc Homo hope, lier. Per haps time will change your indiffer ence to love, and, witbout you, my life will be one of sorrow and un happiness. Of course, I prefer your sisterly friendship rather than noth ing, but, endeavor to givo mo even greater love than this. Won't you promiso ?" "Arnold, I have thought of this and nm sure my decision is for thc best. You will soon forgot mo and not wish for my affections. You deserve a truo and loving wife and this place I cannot fill. Please do not mention tho subject again." "Will you write mo when we aro separated by many miles? Tho lot ters will afford mo great pleasure and comfort. Tell mo you will do so ; give mo your promiso and do not rofuso this, my request." "Yes, Arnold, wo shall part as friends, but nothing moro. I cannot love you ; so hope you will forget me. As to our correspondence, I think it best that no writing shall pass between us. The time for our separation has arrived, and, as a friend and a sister, I will wish you a pleasant and successful year. Good bye." And sho extended her hand toward him. As he pressed it within his own a tear fell upon it. "Her, may I not have a warmer farewell? How this parting gives mo sorrow nono but I can ever know. May God bless you, and I trust timo will bring changes and that I may yet win tho affection you to-day have lefuscd me. May your school life be successful and happy." He was just lifting her hand to his lips, whon she snatched it away and with one final wave of her handker chief and another "good-bye," sho entered tho train and disappeared from view. He waited to get another glimpse of her from the window, but in vain. It seemed aa though hours had transpired ere hin oar arrived, but, at length, it came to convey him to his new abode. lier, when she entered the coacbt threw hereolf upon a seat, and, after plaoing her head upon tho window sill, wept bitterly. Her entire frame trembled with emotion. "O, how cruel I waa I I know I love bim and he cares for me ; why did I grieve him thus? If I bad told him that I love him he would havo been happy. Poor boy ! I have made both you and myself miserable. You will never caro for me again. I have told you to forget mo. You will doteBt and despise rae, but I cannot blame' you. O, that I had not rejeotod that love whioh you bestowed upon me. I write you, but, no I dare not. It appears to mo that the only oourse for mo to per 8uo is to attempt lo forgot you, but I oan't." j Suoh thoughts passed through tho mind of Her Stephens as tho train rattled on. An elderly lady came and endeavored to consolo her, but she. would not mention her sacred thoughts to a stranger, thcreforo could not be comforted. Wo will now leave Her for awhile and roturn to Arnold. He endeavored to pass tho time and direct his thoughts to other objeot8 by reading the latest novel, but to no avail. His mind would return to her. "If I do not win her, no ono olso shall. . I will shed tho last drop of my blood, or obtain tho right to claim Ilor as mino forovor." This was tho meditation of Arnold. He did not weep, for ho was too sad for that. His heart was breaking for tho rejected love of Her Stephens. Ile was sure ho could neither forget her or love another. His entire heart was hers, and hers only, and he knew ho could never bo happy with out her. To bo cunt inned.

Solved the Trump Problem "1 think I have solved the tramp problem in a perfectly satisfactory way," said the New Jersey farmer as the subjeot was under discussion. "It did no good whatever to put up signs warning them off or to keep a bulldog at the gate. I tried all that, and last spring I made a ohange. 1 put up signs for three miles around, reading, "Tramps Please Gall at the Baker Farm," and "All Tramps Wel comed at Baker's," and the result is that not over three of them have called. The other day to show you how it works, a tramp oame - along and looked things over and said to mo : " 'Any constables hidden in the barn ?" " 'Not a one,' I replied. " 'How many bulldogs you got ?' " 'None at all.' " 'Got a lot of spring guns or bear traps hid about the place ?' " ?Nothing of the kind.* " 'lias a feller got to do a day's j work to got a meal ?" " ?No work at all. You come right in and 1 will give you a square meal for nothing, and if you want to stay all night I will give you the best bed in tho house.' "Ho looked at mo in a puzzled way for about a minute," continued the farmer, "and then indulged in a wink and said : " 'You can't play that game on me, old man. This is my sixteenth year on tho road.' " 'But what game ?" I asked. " 'Putting poison in tho milk and selling our cadavers to a medioal collego for $5 apiece.

Tho object of the societies is to bring about a cessation of profanity in or dinary conversation. I believe that a vast deal of good will come of this movement, and hope to see it sproad to other parts of the Union. The fact is that a largo pot* cont of men use profane speech to an extent that they scarcely realizo. A gentleman ought not to mar his talk with coarse and meaningless expletives, and I believe tho day is coming when frequent oaths will not bo tolerated in decent societies. That Racially Potato Bug.

A Costly Insect. Dr. G. E. Ncsom, the veterinarian of the Exporimout Station at Clemson Col lege, makoB tho point, in a oiroular just iBsuod for tho information of tho publio iu this State, that a single insect, the oattlo tiok, costs tho farmers of tho State, dirootly, not loss than $100,000 a yoar in tho destruction of thoir oattlo, without oounting thoir int ci .st loses, and be proves his contentions boyond room for question. Statistics on file in tho Experiment Station, ho says, shows that tho annual doath rato of cattle in tho Stato from Texas f?vor (or "rod water") is 2,65 por cont, which moans a IOBB in raonoy of about $102,000, and it is, theroforo, safo to say that tho alfootion is "tho most important disoaso of animals whioh tho stock mon of tho Stato will havo to deal for many years to come." It is, perhaps, pertinent to noto that this annual IORB is double tho coBt of tho Legislature, and represents tho interest on nearly $2,000, 1000, at 0 por cont, so that it is really a serious drain on tho agricultural com munity. Tho disease, it is well estab lished, is caused 8ololy "by tiokB gotting on cattlo that havo noi, carried them bo foro," so that it may bo said that the Stato has about $2,000,000 "invested" in these interesting creatures, for whoso deadly work it pays, or IOBOS, more than $100,000 a year. About half tho cattle in tho Stato, it is noted, carry tho ticks regularly, hav lng becomo used to them. They will not hurt a cow that has carried tbom from calf hood, but are very fatal to Btrango animals brought into tho Stato. When it is said that fine imported stock must bo "acclimated" hero, it is meant that they must bo acclimatized, not to tho climato, but to ono class of insects ticks. If they cannot stand the Bpocial disease with which they are inuooulated by tho insects thoy die, and tho farmer or stockmen loses the monoy paid for thom. If they can bo kept freo from tho ticks thoy can bo kept froo from Texas fovor, and a part of Mr. Nosoni's oiroular THE BLUE RIDG BETWEEN BELT Ol East-Bound Trains. 2d Class. 1st Clnss. a a a o T?? -o-o 9> s rs ? rt 'O Tl I CO 'O . 22 S .??W 10 12 kt TIME TAB In effect Aj STAT] P.M. 7 05 fl 48 0 45 r.

"It prevents, also, the int rod not i in of botter blood into our bords, which is very desirable," as the "sorub" has long "sino? ceased to bo a profitable animal." Th oattle of the State, ho adds, are all the time decreas ing in number and inoreasing in value in fact, oattle are worth more all over the oountry than ever before-and the farmers of the State have the opportu nity of a lifetime for a profitable oattle business, if modoru breeds and methede aro used. "Wo have the soil, olimate and rainfall to make grass, and grass makes cattle." But Texas fever is c onstant hindrance to the cattle business, and wo shall havo tho disoaso as long as t irks infest our oattle. "The one thing needful is to kill the ticks,"and after trying many mothods for this purpose, Mr. NoBom heartily re commends ono, as follows: "Build a slatted chuto just largo enough, to hold a cow and BO arrange it I that they can bo driven into it and shut up ono at a timo. Get a spray pump Buch as tho Perfect Success, ($5.00,) aud a supply of tho cheaper coal tar disin fectants, such as ohloro-naptboloum or zenoleum, (one gallon $1.50, or five gal lons $0.35.) Mix one gallon of tho dis infectant with ninotoon gallons of water I in a oonvoniont vessel. Fill tho buckot, run a cow into tho chute and spray her I all over. Do this with each ono carrying ticks and repeat onco a weok till all tho ticks disappear. If no ono in your town handlea those send me $7 and I will have 1 tho factory sond you a pump and a gal lon of zenoleum."
