STATE LEAGUE FOR LAW ANO ORDER
Propose* te Che ok Crlmt by Striking at the
C&use-Address to the People.
[The state, November 25th.]
The Executive Committee of the
Temperanoe Law and Order League,
which was organized fair week, met
in the city last night and prepared
an address to be issued to the people
of South , Carolina. Constitution
and by-laws were also adopted. It
was decided to put a man in tho field
at onoe. The necessary expenses
must be met by voluntary oontribu
violin. All who are interested in the
welfare of the State are urged to
seud contributions to the treasurer of
the league, Howell Morrell, ot Hor
roll, Richland county.
After the adjournment of the com
mittee meeting, the chairman, Capt.
J. W. Hamel, editor of the Kershaw
Era, stated that the members are
very muoh in earnest ; they have
met with muoh encouragement and
expeot to succeed. It must oome
about slowly, just as tho present
state of lethargy has oome over the
State gradually, but the league ex
peots to see the day when the people
will see tho oauso of orimo.
THE ADDRRS8 TO TUB TKOPI.K.
Following is the address which
was issued last night :
To tho People of South Carolina :
"'Ne Exeoutivo Committee of the
State I " Law and Order
League, iu of tho duty
ill)posed on tu Ul, W^ ' '688 to
their fellow citizens a few ?. * ca
tions and conclusions as to w.
plorable condition of lawlessness
existing in the State, a condition
well calculated to humiliate us in
our own eyes and degrade us in the
estimation of the civilized world.
It is sufficient to oall attention to
the faot that 180 homioides are re
ported in thc daily papers as com
mitted in this Stato for the nine
months ending September 30 of the
current year, to show that a terrible
state of lawlessness exists, and to
justify the most earnest and strenu
ous efforts on tho part of law-respeot
ing citizens to correot it.
Besides this record of bloodguilti
ness, crimes of all lesser grades,
which result from a lawless spirit,"arc
on the increaso, while efforts to
repress them by the ordinary pro
cesses of law seem to bo singularly
ineffective.
It is scarcely necessary to recite
tho cataloguo of these crimes against
morality and good order. They are
known and read of all men. The
laws of God and man are violated
with impunity as witnessed by the
desecration of the Sabbath, tho pro
fanation of the sanotuary of God by
scenes of drunkenness, disorder and
bloodshed, the violations of the
criminal law, and the shameful vio
lation of tho dispensary law in all its
restrictive and prohibitive provisions.
Under these conditions it becomes
a proper enquiry for thoughtful mon,
what is tho cause of this disordered
condition of society, and to seek to
discover a remedy therefor.
The most painful feature of the
situation is to be found in the gene
ral indifference on the part of the
better element to assumo their part
in the enforcement of law, and their
refusal or neglect to support those
appointed agents who are charged
with its enforcement.
We believe it the duty of good
citizens of all classes, and especially
of Christians, to aid in tho enforce
ment of all laws which have h?en
placed on tho statute books by their
sanction, and that their negldot or
refusal to discharge their duty in
this respect is the chief encourage
ment and support to lawlessness.
We commend his Excellency, Gov.
Hey ward, for his sincero effort to en
force the dispensary law, and declaro
it to be one of thc purposes of our
organization to render all available
aid and encouragement to him and
his officers in their laudable endos
vor.
In a word, wo would call upon our
fellow citizens to come promptly and
boldly to the rescue of our State
from the perilous position in which
we have been placed by suffering a
small minority of law breakers to
Imperil every true interest ol he
people by their criminal conduct
For this purpose wo would urge
upon the people in every county and
community to unite with us in organ
ized effort by forming themselves
into leagues for the purposes set
forth in tho simple form of organiza
tion which is herewith submitted.
J. W. Hamel, Chairman,
Howell Morrell, S.-croiary.

An exchange says the following is
the method of courtship in the Caro
lina pine woods: "When a boy
wishes to express himself to his girl
be takes a piece of fat pine, trims it
in the shape of a capital I and then
passes it to his girl, which means, ?I
pine for you.' If she rejects him she
takes a match and sets it on firo,
which means, *I make light of your
pining.' If she likes him she hands
him a pinewood knot which means,
'Pine not.' I am glad to say that
most of the boys get a pine wood
knot back.

Educational
The board charged with tho manage
ment of the Peabody ?duoational
Fund decided at their last annual
meeting to appropriate $10,000 for
the development of rural publio
Bohools in the South. They also
appropriated $10,000 for tho benefit
of summer sohools. After October,
1904, the scholarships in the Nashville
Normal School will be discontinued.
This latter act iou was deemed advisa
ble in view of the fact that within
recent years normal sohools have
sprung up in various Southern States,
and it waa thought more good could
be accomplished by encouraging these
local undertakings and at tho same
time helping to build up the oountry
schools in deserving districts.

euough that a few children should

tho tax is that the country is to be

A Celestial Vision.
Christian workers will feel inter
ested in the following article by John
Temple Graves in The Atlanta
News:
Tho account given by. General
Booth, of the Salvation Army, as the
secret of his consecration and efforts
for the spread of the Gospel is very
interesting re ling. Spaoe is too
limited to dotai tho account entire,
bnf l lui syuops's may teach a lesson.
In a sort of vision he was brought
to the verge'of death by severe ill
ness, as he thought, and his friends
became greatly, alarmed. Previous
to that time be wa? a professing
Christian, in a Christian community.
He said he thought he was active in
religious",work. He attended services
on Sunday and took an aottve part
in teaching .children' the, 'troths ot
Christianity. He visited tho sick and
gave some money to support religious
work about him. In >..l this he was
Mineure. . He was no hypocrite. He
said ho had gotten in to a rut of
thought, action and profession-hop
ing it would all be well with him at
the close of life.
When he^was so comfortably in
olined he saw himself in * what his
friends said would be his fatal sick
ness.
In this vision-whatever it may
be termed-he saw his duty clearer
and found he had nothing to res*
upon but tho mercy of { tho] Saviour
-and ho fouud himself repeatlug :
"I am a poor Bioner, just uothing in all,
But J08U8 Christos;nay all in all."
While this state of miud prevailed
a cold numbness possessed him, his
breathiug beoame difficult. His dear
ones wiped his brow, used restora
tives, fell on their knees' and, .wept.
With the faintness-he loBt con
sciousness, and found himself out of
himself in a new and celestial exist
ence, beautiful beyond expression,
delightful beyond conception-and
tho whole oountry "was tilled with a
blissful ecBtaoy,"gthat could only be
realized to be imagined. He felt he
was really landed in heaven, safe,
saved; to suffer and sin no more.
"Far from a world of grief and sin,
Wit h God eternally shut in."
With all this celestial bliss in plain
view he found himself lonely in
heaven. Not ono" of the bright
beings, seraphim and cherubim, came
to speak with him. He begun to
feel an nnfitness for association with
the inhabitants of the celestial coun
try. Ho asked himself if he had gone
in uninvited or by mistake.
Then a record was unfolded before
him. It was his own life's record
tho deeds done in tho body. He
found that all the things he had
done amiss, before hie conversion,
were blotted out; eau eel led, as it
were. Some.friendly baud had gone
over the roll and stricken out, the
things he dreaded to see. Nor was
there any notice taken of his mis
takes and errors; binoe tho date of
his conversion. What he had com
mitted that grieved him and what
he had sought forgiveness ,for were
not present to tormeut him ; but the
trouble lay in the real objects for
which bo had lived in his earthly
life. How bad ho employed his time,

A ?hatter?! nervous system nearly always

Cure is not only a great heart reculator, but
lt is a blood tome which speedily corrects

"I have been so greatly benefited by Dr.
Miles' Nervine aud Heart Cure that I freely
recommend them as th? best remedies for
the diseases they are recommended to cure.
When I began taking these medicines I
weighed scarcely 140 pounds, my nerves
were badly shattered and my heart troubled
nae a great deal. I had pain in my left arm
and shoulder, bad difficulty in sleeping on
mr left side, had frequent smothering spells
and my heart would flutter ?nd palpitate.
I could eat scarcely any kind of food without
suffering great distress, and was so restless
and nervous that I slept little night or day.
Now I am never bothered with my heart,
my nerves are steady as a die, I sleep well,
eat well and weigh 163 pounds. I am happy
now and am trying to make back the money

talents and money-the gifts God
had given him to use for His glory
and the salvation of the world ? He
f' uud he had been intent on earthly
things, seeking his own carnal inter
ests, pottering about the things of
the flesh-when he had hoon given
every chance to glorify his occupa
tion as a servant of God. He felt so
miserable that he would have gone
baok to the world to have redeemed
the time and lived a nobler life, that
he might have wiped out from eter
nity these unutterable regrets. He
asked himself if it would be impossi
ble to obtain a commission or permis
sion to go back to that part of the
world from which he had come
olothed in human form and live over
his earthly life again, to prepare his
nature for a life in this oelestial
kingdom-without harrowing memo
ries whioh would forever defile?
While thus perplexed a glorified mes
senger came to him and told him the
hosts were waiting to hear him relate
his victories by whioh he had helped
forward thc kingdom of Christ upon
earth-and especially if ho had been
the means of bringing salvation to
the dear ones they had left behind.
Then he remembered his selfish
eagerness for a life of ease and
oomfort-and what could he say ?

had sacrificed nothing worth naming

Eggs and Divorce.
What a man eats, that he is-a
rulo that applies to woman, just as
much or little. Mrs. Sarah Borer,
philosopher and artist of the palate,
has given a now explanation of the
frequency of divorce : "If fewer wo
men ato eggs for breakfast," hays
this lady, "there would be fewer
cases of divorce." Eggs make their
eaters lazy. Tho feminine egg-eaters
neglect their work. Thuir husbands
are dissatisfied. Quarrels and divorces
start from the egg. To the woman
who doesn't bave to do housewo?k
eggs aro just as pernicious. "The
Booial leader who over-indulges" in
eggs "loses her brightness of eye, her
piquancy and charm." Her husband
"lopes interest. Then come lawyers."
Hens a? a factor of divorce; there's
a problem for tbe debating societies
and the women's clubs.-New York

Sbo knew, ns and understood us. 8he
stood between us and those who would
have wronged us. It ?ill be a happy
ta?k now for the Oreat Spirit to make

Chauucoy Abrams, also a Seneca, act
ing for chief Corn Planter, lifted the
"horns" from the casket aud presenting
them to Mr. Keppler, informed him that
be bad been eelectod to take the great
y lora; mother's office. Theo, turning to
ti e -..flin, ho said :
' \ wish you, Ga-Is-Wa-Noa, a safe and
happy lourney to tho spirit land."
Mr. Keppler, in accepting the anolent
"horns," promised to faithfully adminis
ter the trust imposed on him hy his red
brethren.
Chief Corn Planter followed, wearing j
under his vest a red sash, the bat'go of |
the high priest of "Gon-Ol-Dlu" religion.
He expressed his grief in a few words of
broken English, while tears streamed
down his face, and then sat in his chair,
buried hie face in his hands and wept.

Dark Pace, a magnificent looking man
with hair streaming below his broad
shoulders, said:
"1 am not a Seneca, but I come of the1
Dnnikeo tribo. I know tbe great white
mother, as evory red man In this land
knows her. She studiod the Indians'
religion, the truo religion, lt is fouudtd
on the true God. Our God touched thia
woman's heart and she understood us.
She was the angel of God. Wo may not
have a Christ in our religion, but we
have a mediator and she was the great
mediator botween the whites and the In
dians. Wo see our God-we hear onr
God. We see Him in the trees, in the
rivers and oven in a blado of grass, just
as we hear him in the rustle of the
loaves in our forests. Ours is the God
of Nature. Sbo was a leader to us. She
inspired us to better things. Wo loved
her and now she is gone from UB; but
while wo are sad it is for us that we are
sad, not for her, because we know she is
happy. Wo aro sad because we are left
alone. I think ours is the sweetest of
ail 'he religions.
A dd rest's were also made by Chief
Longfellow, Morris Leigh and Carlos, an
Aztec from Mexico.

How we Catch a Cold.
A cold is sometimes contracted while I
remaining inactive for a while in an un
comfortable room or a cold draft and by
falling to sleep under like conditions.
But most colds aro caught while sleep
ing too cold at night. Deep sleep causes I
sluggish circulation, which renders the '
system su8coptible to change of tompora
turo. To prevent colds, sloop under
plenty of cover. To cure colds use Ry
dalo's Elixir, it lessens the sevority and
shmteus the duration of a cold aud pro
vents pneumonia, bronchitis aud con
sumption. J. H. Darby, Walhalla; The
