[By a Former Walhalla Girl.] Poets tell us of the beauty bright, Of the moon and stars, soft silver light, Of the grass wet with tho sparkliugdew; But I think it rather tough, don't you, To go walking early in the damp? And I know it always gives mo oramp In my joints, if I dare linger long, Just to liston to tho night-bird'B song. Poets tell us of tho Bun's gold kiss, Warming our souls into porfoot bliss; But I think its scorching, buruiug rays With complexions mischief always plays. I like, rather, cooling shade, don't you? With a roof beside tho heavon's blue, And the bows of waving evergreen, Of the maple with its silvor shoou.

How It's Done In Pennsylvania. Indiana, Pa., February ?4. Twenty negroes of Webrum, who composed the entire black popula tion of the town, were driven out yesterday after their shacks had been pulled down over their hoads by the whites. Tho white residents had given the negroes soveral days, notice to quit the town, but this, with subsequent warnings, was ig nored. Yesterday a white mob gathered, armed with ropes and poles and marched on the negroes' quarters, and rigging tackle on shacks the mob tugged at the ropes and soon had the structures in ruins. After the assault tho negroes hastily gathered their belongings and made for tho railroad station, where they boarded freight and went to Vinton dale, a nearby station. This ?B the end of a raco war which broke out ten days ago, when Sterling Akin, a negro, shot and wounded Welton Thomas, a bookkeeper of Webrum. Akin escaped, but the Webrum resi dents ordered all the negroes in the town, ajbout 20, to leave the neigh borhood. Failing to comply after repeated requests, the white residents yesterday attacked the negroes' shacks as described. O J9L19 T O JFE. X ?/V ?

New York, February 25.-The Evening Tologram to-day prints a story to the effeot that anarchists from all over the world aro about to meet in a secret meeting to devise plans that may radically affect tho orowned hoads of Europo. All preparations for the conven tion were carefully guarded, but the plans became known through the boastful talk of a youthful delegate to the convention from this city. This man, an Italian, known as "Angelo" and "Rudolph," gavo up his place ot? Saturday, declaring that he had been selected as ono of I five delegates from the United States to tho convention. Tue Eve ning Telegram says : "Far reaching anarchistic plans are to bo discussed and perfooted at this worlds's convention, it is said, and it is even whispered that ere an adjournment is taken a meeting will have been held and men assigned to deeds, tho full accomplishment of which may shape tho destinies of the reigning houses of Kurope."

Clemson, February 25.-Dr. Ne som, the State veterinarian, ia re ceiving so many letters from various sections iu reference to staggers that I he has found it impossible to answer | them all. The following letter will I be of interest to many throughout | the State As it is quite out of the question to give porsonal answers to all of the lottern received from oitizons of South Carolina and Georgia re garding a horse disease com monly referred to as staggers, I take this method of saying to those con cerned that as moro and moro oases appear overy week, and just at a sea son when horses and mutes are so much in demand for farm work, it becomes a serious question. (Tho losses in South Carolina from this disease during the past year are estimated at about $10,000, and it is prevalent in Maryland, Virginia, | North Carolina and Kansas. I had diagnosed the disease as cerebro spiual meningitis nearly a year ago, but many of tho diseases did not 8oem typical of this disease. I have recently forwarded to the bureau of animal industry at Washington six of the brains taken from horses that died of this disease. A partial re port has been received and the dis ease proves to bo oercbro-spinal meningitis, or leucooncephalitis. This is a disenso of the nervous system, affecting chiefly the brain and its covering membranes. Most of the brains taken out recently ba ve been congested, some blood serum around the brain, and in either tho right or the left half qf tho up per portion of the brain (cerebrum) there has boen found a large area of | degeneration. This cannot bo seen on tho surface, but if the brnin bc cut open what appears to be a largo ulcer is found in tbe substance of I the brain. This is the principal losion and is responsible for most of the ill syreq; oms. The symptoms are those of nearly all tho other forms of so-called "staggers," and death generally fol lows in one or two days if not very soon after tho diseaso is noticed. The cause of tho disease is not well understood, but is always associated with mouldy fe jd, bad water and un clean surroundings. The remedy is to avoid the causes, use only the best food, puro water and keep thc animals under the best of conditions as to cleanliness. In one case 1 saw where a number of mules died, and the only bad environ ment I could lind was that a lot of | rank weeds bad been mowed down around tho burn and left there to decay during a rainy spell of weather. Medical treatment is almost use less, as the losiotis of the brain have already occurred when the symp toms are noticed and cure is gener ally out of tho question when bo much of the brain bas become de cayed. Cold shower baths to head,] doses of one ounce of chloral hy drate, one ounce aloes, or four ounces of whiskey, relieve the symp toms for a while. When the dis ease appears, clean, disinfect and whitewash the barns and do not use a.stall where a horse has died. If possible abandon lots and barns for two or three months and provide quarters elsewhere. G. E. Nesom, State Veterinarian. OA8TORIA. Bears the _?} Titi Kind You Have Always Bought Signature of Undertaker's Driver Put Under Arrest. Knoxville, February 25.-After opening 100 graves at the county cemetery yesterday, in which but 13 bodies were found, the Knox county investigating committee ceased its work, but will resume later. Excessive pauper bills at the .January term led to the discovery. The boxes or eoflins were mostly in fant size, and contained stones, scrap iron, etc. Thc deaths had been re ported from fako strcot numbers. James Goins, negro driver for County Undertaker W. C. McCoy, was arrested last night and charged with perjury in getting burial per mits. Ile threatens to expose others if they do not protect him. A second warrant was issued against Goins this afternoon, charging for gery. McCoy claims ignoranco of Goins'work, but drew sevoral hun dred dollars for it. Humor has it that bodies have been shipped, but the opening of full sized graves will bo required to settle this. Charles McNabb, president of tho Tonnessee Modioal College, dis claims any knowledge of recoiving bodies from that sonr-o.

Neither Republican Nor Third Partyite. Walhalla, .February 23.-Editor* Cou rier: Having been away from home some few days. I was not here to take my n#i?t of a rambling newspaper article which was published in the News of February . ?iii, and signed by T. Y. Chalmers, or "Alliance Plow Boy," in whioh Mr. Chal mers seemed to waut to bring all who didu'tsuo through bis hair-brained, vacil lating. Botni-Third-F&rtylsm under hi* "llarabango," aud branded Hr. Doyle and myself as particular offenders against "the faith." Mr. Doyle bas already mado his reply, aud, in my opinion, acquitted himself oicoly; but Mr. Doyle hasn't known our friend (?) Tommy as long as I have, or he wouldn't bo surprised at a man whom popular sentiment connected so closely witb one of the foulest deeds of those horriblo "seventies," whioh ho barpod on so in taking part with the Tillmaus in one of tho grossest orlmes in the annals of the State. He didn't find suoh sympathy tot ? uurtaiu widow and orphan muoh nearor home than Mrs. Tillman and child, so we think the old, but truo saying, "Let charity begin at borne," would DO a right good prescrip tion for our morally sick neighbor. I am not, however, prepared to disouBS the Tillman shooting affair. I find that many things aro to be considered, but there is positively uotbing that oan ex cuso a mau for shootiug another down without a warning. Besides, tho idea of a man helping make a law prohibiting the carrying of concealed weapons by private citizens, to say nothing of the mau who is sworn to maintain law and ordor. AB Mr. Chalmors has so liberally allowed mo my opinion, I'll just expross it in a few words: It ls a shameful dis grace to our glorious old State. Having alroady "mossed" with a thiner that wasn't aimod dirootly at me, I'll proceed to the point in discussion. Mr. Chalmers alluded to "the fellow who went to Washington and saw old Ben and bunted for Commoroial Johnny." I take it for granted that he meant me, and I will try to make it plain to our roasonablo citizens (Mr. Chalmers in ex cused) what I meant by my remarks. Evorybody knows 1 questioned tho wor thiness of both, and am plain in saying that it is a pity South Carolina oan't, or won't at least, find botter men morally and politically to reprosont her in the Senate than oitbor of them. Both of our Senators are smart 'mon, and thia makes their actions moro contemptible. If they didu't have any moro sonso than some of their blind followors, they might bo excused. Mr. Chalmors, I think, is tho wrong man to invito anybody back to tbe "Democratic fold." I am sure I have never avowed my political views; but I am ouc of those who wore "boru of Demo cratic parents, rocked in a Democratic eradlo." otc, aud tho Blblo says, "Bring up a clnld in i he way it should go ant when it is old it will not depart from it." So I would much rnthur my counsellor would bo somo ono who hasn't accepted an introduction to a jocular drummor for an acquaiutnnco with tho ilou. Tom Watson, of third party fame, and run himself almost to death tclliug all tho neighbors of tho intorview. Now, noigh bor, don't bo so elated next timo till you aro sure who you aro plotting with. I am not nu ndtniror of Johnny's curls, but nm coulidont that ho would measure up bettor than Mr. Chalmor's beloved burly Bon, had tho illustrious Wado Hampton, whom he SO justly OXtols, been thc man handling tho yard stick. That Bon is smart, aud very smart, no body doubts; but that ho is alBO mean, and very moan, all who are gonorous enough to look at both sides of bis con duct will admit. Mr. Chnlmers nlso hinted at somo road grading. 1 can say 1 think it an outrage that au unofTonding puhlio should be turned out of a very good road into a Hidliug mud hole, but this is the oase on tho new road leading from Lay'* mill to Mr. Beatty'*. Just wboro Mr. Chalmers got his authority I can't say, but ono thing is sure: I saw a note from Mr. Pool to Mr. McCall telling him not to mako those changes, and then right away, be fore the new Hoard had taken nhargo, Mr. Chalmers was going right along making them. Possibly tho grading bo spoke of wns dono on the Calhoun farm, whore he used a wheel Rcrapo, if no more of the county outfit, to mako a set tlement road. If our Suporvisor would let us have the county outfit to gi ado "our hill" we'd ho tickled to death. Hoping this will give tho puhlio in general a clear understanding of tho stand I take, and bo thoroughly satisfac tory to Uro. Chalmers, without any more said, I am, etc., S. A. Massoy.

DeLaoy, of ?Eastman, solicitor general of the Oconeo loirouit and one of the vice presidents of the Greater Georgia Asso ciation, eleoted from that circuit, re turned homo last night. He came to Atlanta as a delegate from Dodge county to attend the Greater Georgia Conven tion. He tells me of a now and important industry tbaVbas recently sprung up in Dodge county, which ls destined to bring thousands of dollars from a source heretofore overlooked by the people of Georgia, and at the same time make the farming lands of the State more valua ble than over. In a word, it bas hoon demonstrated that a vast amount of wealth is wrapped up in the unsightly and objectionable pine stumps left In the ground after the timber |bas been out from them. DoLacoy says id this connection: "Some time ago a German from North Carolina came to Eastman and organised a company for the purpose of utilizing piue stumps and their roots! and oonverting them into products of a co m m ero lal value. He explained his scheme aud soon had his oompany organised and his enterprise in operation. "He is buying all the stumps delivered at his plant at!the? rate of $2.50 a oord and then working up this orude material so as to get from it four product?. These are turpentine, tar, oreosote and oharooal. But he is not satisfied yet and says that he is going to get another product ont of the old pine stumps, and that this will be white lead. Of oourao, how he man ages to do all of tbis no one on the out side knows, but we do know that he is getting them. "For firewood these old stumps would not bring moro than $1.50 a cord, proba bly not even that. But to be used in the manufacture of suoh products as turpentine, tar. oreosote and oharooal they are worth ?2.60 a cord, delivered at the plant, and may be wortbx moro later on. Tho establishment of this new aud novol industry has caused a big demand for stump-pulling maohinery In our soc tton of tho State. Hundreds are hoing purchased by the farmers of Dodge and surrounding counties for uso in oloariug the fields of these obstructions. With these removed there will be quite a saving in the way of plough points, and the man who steers the mule will not have to run bis plough around a stump or lift it over in running bis furrow. In a word, there will be a great saving not only of time, but in available land, and this is a big thing in the everyday lifo of a farmer. ' The stump-puller is a great invention. Tho macbinory, with the aid of a mule, yanks the stump, roots and all, out of the ground, aud does it quickly. Here tofore farmers have had to worry with tboir stumps until they rotted out of oxistenco. But now thoy oan pull them up with machinery and sell them at a good prieo, tho result being that their lands aro improved and their pooketbooks filled at the same time." o -A- fii *x* cj) mt x " Baan tho ?41he Kind You Hara Always Bought Town Wiped Out by Fire.
