Presbyterians are taking a great
interest In the m etlng of South Caro

Walter V. Smith, of New York,
who attended the funeral of his fa
ther, Judge D. A. Smith, at Walhalla,
was in the city Saturday on his re
turn home in thu metropolis. He is
a most pleasant young man and an
excellent linotype operator, having
inherited much of his knowledge of
the newspaper business from his fa
ther and from work done with him
on the Keowee Courier, of which the
father was one of the editors and
owners at the time of his death.
Judge Smith at one time worked at
the cases on the old Intelligencer,
later going to Columbia, where he
conducted a daily paper successfully
foi some time. He then went to
Walhalla, where he became a part
owner of the Keowee Courier. At
the time of his death he was Judge
of Probate of the county.

of Elmer Stevenson, who had been

Bees Con finned Topers.
(Philadelphia Record.)
Honey from dahlias, which grow
In rich profusion in New Jersey, has
been found to have a peculiar effect
upon bumblebees. After they have
filled themselves with the sweet stuff
they appear dazed and when brushed
off the flowers fall to the ground and
act like intoxicated men. The honey
serins to act like opium upon the in
sects, and those who have observed,
declared that one "drunk" is not
enough for them, but that they re
turn and become confirmed topers.

Printer Cusser Dead.
There recently died in Washington
a man who had "cussed out" more
printers than any other man who
ever held office under the govern
ment. That man had only a sur
name and two letters for the rest of
lt. He wrote lt W J Rhces. It any
one put a period after that ?V or J,
Professor Rhees would almost throw
a flt. His family called him W J
and nothing else. These two letters
did not stand for anything but them
selves. And he held that when a
period or any sort of a mark went
after either of them lt killed the In
dividuality of his name. And more
often than not tho period went after
thom at the hands of printers and his
correspondents who did not under
stand.

STINGING CATERPILLARS.
Dr. Waller Explains What These Var
mints are and Gives Name.
(Spartanburg Journal.)
Several days ago this newspaper
told of the appearance of a peculiar
worm or caterpillar In Spartanburg
and that a numebr of people had been
stung by the unknown visitor and
made deathly sica. Dr. C. B. Waller,
of Wofford College, furnishes the fol
lowing with reference to the caterpil
lar, which will be of interest:
"Attention has been - previously
called through the papers to "sting
ing" caterpillars that have appeared
in several sections of the city, and of
one or more instances of severe pain
accompanying the "sting" of these
caterpillars. Several specimens have
been brought to Science Hall. These
caterpillars are the larvae of a nota
ble North American nocturnal bomby
cld moth, Lagao. This family also In
cludes the silk worm. The larvae of
this particular species are of remark
able form, resembling oval bits of
curly brown or yellowish hair. Be
neath the long feathery hair with
which these caterpillars are clothed
are concealed stiff hairs, sharp at the
points, and are urlcating or nettling
when they penetrate the delicate por
tions of the cuticle. There have been
cases in which the attack was of such
severity as to cause considerable nau
sea. If these caterpillars are kept in
closed for a few days they will begin
to spin a cocoon which resembles
knots on twigs. Several species are
known; the most common ls Opercu
lari8."

GOLD MINE IN NEW YORK CITY.
Rieh Ore Deposits Discovered Under
East River.
New York, October 9.-Men in the
employ of the department of bridges,
who have been making a series of
borings along the river front, it is
announced to-day, have discovered a
vein of gold bearing quartz under
the East river, in the neighborhood
ot the Brooklyn bridge. The ore ex
tracted amounted to two pounds and
the gold lt contalnod, it is stated,
was estimated to be worth $40. On
this basis tho voin would run $24,000
a ton.
The find belongs to the city and
further investigation will bo made to
determino whether or not the find ls
as valuable as it is said to appear.
In digging under New York and its
adjacent waters there have been sev
eral finds of rich ore, but they have
been in small pockets and of no great
value.

Going to Europe.
New York, October 13.-Artist
Ferdinand PInney Earle, who Bent
his wife and child to Paris in order
that he might marry Miss Kuttner,
his "affinity," is to seek rest for his
nerves in a Battle Creek, Mich., sani
tarium. After he has sufficiently re
covered he intends sailing for Eu
rope.
It was said yesterday by Alfred
Kuttner, brother of Misa Julia Kutt
ner, the "affinity," that the artist's
trip abroad would be for the purpose
of studying art, but Earle's neigh
bors in Mon rou say that he is pining
for a sight of his two-year-old ron,
Harold, who is in Paris with Mrs.
Earle. Some go so far as to say that
Earle may seek a reconciliation with
his wife, although little credence is
placed In this rumor by his friends.
Miss Kuttner is at her home, 217
WeBt 7sth street, and Earle has been
a frequent visitor there of late.

Surgery to Restore Sanity.
(Philadelphia North American.)
Roentgen rays and a surgeon's
knife were used in the Medico-Chlrur
gical Hospital yesterday In a last dar
ing effort to restore reason to Samuel
Blumenthal, 25 years old, who has
been insane for several years.
Dr. Ernest LaPlace, assisted by sev
eral surgeons of the hospital staff,
performed the operation. Blumenthal
had been prepared for the ordeal by
nurses in the hospital for moro than
a week. His physical condition, as a
consequence of this care, and the se
lected diet, was as good as could be
made.
Insanity was the result of an injury
sustained several years ago. Recently
Blumenthal has been a constant care
to his relatives and a menace to him
self and the community.
An X-ray photograph showed a but
ton-like protuberance on tho inside of
the skull, where he had received the
Injury. The photograph was careful
ly charted and verification of the lo
cation of the bone button was made
by other photographs.
Yesterday, with these photographs
as guides, Dr. LaPlace performed the
operation of trepanning upon Blum
enthal's skull. He found the rough
protuberance just where it had been
Indicated by the photographic plates
and beneath it a compressed condi
tion of the brain substance.
After tho thickened portion of the
Bkull had been removed the patient
rallied quickly. There appeared to
be no suffering from tho shock and
no Impairment of any organic func
tion.

Tho Man Who. Lioves a Baby.
(From the Detroit Free Press.)
The man who loves a baby,
He ic the man for me;
His heart ls warm with sunshine,
His face is good to see.
When weight of woe oppresses,
And everythlug goes wrong
The man who loves a baby,
Still sings a hopeful song.
When weary with the struggle,
He plodB along his way;
Though sorrow is about him,
His heart ls always gay,
Ho falters not nor weakens, ^
But finds new courage when
He thinks about the baby,
And he goes to work again.
The man who loves a baby,
Finds strength with which to
cope
With all of lifo's misfortunes
He never gives up hope.
He bears a cheerful message,
He knows no word like fall;
Tho man who loves a baby,
Is the man you can't assail.
