Seeing and Knowing.?An eminent
lord chief justice, who was trying
a right ot way case, had before
him a witness?an old farmer?who
was proceeding to tell the jury that he
had "knowed the path for GOyeer, and
my feyther tould I as he heerd my
grandfather zay"?
"Stop!" said the judge, "we can't
have any hearsay evidence here."
"Not!" exclaimed Farmer Giles.
"Then how dost thou kuow who thy
feyther was 'cept by hearsay ?"
After the laughter had subsided the
judge said : "Iu courts of law we can
only be guided by what you have seen
with your eyes, and nothing more or
less."
"Oh, that be blowed for a tale!" replied
the farmer. "I ha' got a bile on
the back of my neck and I never seed
'um, but I be prepared to swear that
he's there, dang 'un !"
This second triumph on the part of
the witness set in a torrent of hearsay
evidence about the footpath which obtained
weight with the jury, albeit
the judge told them it was not testimony
of any value, and the farmer's
party won.?Irish Times.
At the Telephone.?A Texas farmer
entered the office of a Dallas,
Texas, merchant prince, says Siftings,
and asked him if he would like to buy
some fresh butter, which he had
brought to town in his wagon.
"I really don't know whether my
wife wants any butter just now, but
I'll find out," replied the merchant,
and stepping to the telephone he called ]
up his wife, and had some conversation
on the subject. Then he turned to the <
countryman, who had watched the (
proceedings, and whose face was a
study for an artist.
"No," said the merchant; "my wife
tells me that she has butter enough on
hand to last for sometime." ,
"That's all right, cap. You don't
need to buy any butter if you don't
want to. All you have got to do is to
say so, but you needn't play me for a
fool by trying to make me believe you
have got your wife locked up in that
little box. I reckon I have some sense
left if I am from the country. You
can't fool me."

Introducing Mark Twain.?Now 1
that Mark Twain is coming back to us,
stories are revived of bis early days.
It is said that once be went to a lecture
in a small town located somewhere I
on the outskirts of civilization. The 1
chairman of the evening knew noth- 1
ing about him, but felt that he must 1
nevertheless do his duty. "Ladies and i
gentlemen," said he, "it is my duty to {
introduce to you Mr. Mark Twain. 1
The only thing I know of him is that I
he has never been in our jail, and I ]
am bound at the same time to add
that I don't know why he hasn't." j
When the audible smiles had sub- 1
sided, Mark arose and said, slowly: 1
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am ex
tremely sorry to throw doubt on the <
veracity of your chairman, but I must '
tell the truth if he does not. He is i
wrong when he says I have not been 1
in your jail. I was there this after- <
noon?on a visit of inspection." <
f?" Mrs. F. (to Fogg, lighting his 1
evening cigar)?Daniel, I'm thinking
of buying some new mottoes for our 1
rooms. What kind of sentiment would (
you suggest? "Bother! I don't care !
what you get. Only let it be something
new. We've had enough of your
'God Bless Our Home,' 'The Lord Is
My Shepherd,' and all that sort of
thing. Let it be something new."
"I'm real glad, Daniel, that our opin- 1
ions are exactly alike. How would
this suit you: 'No Smoking Allowed '
Here ?' " Fogg took the hint, and 1
suddenly remembering that he had an
engagement down town, went out,
taking his cigar with him. ?
JST Old Lady?No use talkin', I used
to say this higher edication of gals was
all folderol; but I see I was wrong.
There's my grandarter, for instance.
She's just a wonder.
Friend?I understand she graduated
with high honors.
Old Lady?Yes, graduated, and she
kin do what neither her mother nor
me could hope to do if our lives depended
on it.

Bright Prospkcts.?"Doctor, how
am I coming ou ? Do you think there
is any hope?" said a very sick man to
Dr. Blister.
"Your chances are the best in the
world. The statistics show that one
person iu teu recovers," replied the
doctor.
"Then there is not much hope for
me!"
"Oh, yes there is. You are the tenth
case that I have treated and the other
nine are dead. I don't see how you
can help getting well if the statistics
are to be relied on."
S&T In a public school of Olympia,
Washington, where pupils are asked
occasionally for impromptu poetical
recitations, one reluctaut boy recently
ordered to show his ability at rhyming
for the benefit of the School Board's
visitors, astounded all present, and secured
puuishmeut for himself later,
by declaiming:
God, O God, supreme on high,
Look down on this committee,
Who chose such fools to teach our schools
In this our capital city.

HOW WAR WILL BEGIN.
Plan Formulated to Make Spain Commence
Hostilities.
Washington Dispatch to The Globe-Democrat.
Some 10 days ago the lawyers in the
senate, who had been requested by
representatives of the administration
to make a research of international
law and the precedents upon which
the powers would proceed after the
close of our war with Spain, reported
that the recognition of the insurgents
as a form of government or the decla
* 1 ? e x?. _ ?^1 _1
ration of independence 01 me lsiauu
would certainly fasten upon the United
States the debt of both the Cuban
government and Spain, and after the
administration had begun a procedure
to avoid the responsibility in the declaration
by congress a programme was
mapped out, and here it is, from a
high official:
"When the joint resolution becomes
a law one of the fleets of our navy,
possibly the one that has been stationed
at Hampton Roads, will be
used as a convoy to accompany a fleet
provisioned for the succor of the starving
people of the island of Cuba.
There will possibly be six or eight of
the warships of various descriptions,
and possibly a like number of merchantmen
loaded with clothing, provisions,
physicians and nurses. The
objective point is Matanzas, but it is
likely a lower point on the island will
be selected, as it is reported that the
harbor at Matanzas has been planted
with mines and torpedoes.
"It is confidently expected that the
Spanish will resist the landing of this
fleet. It will certainly accept the mission
as one of war rather than of mercy
and peace. The firing upon this
fleet by Spain will be a parallel, in the
rules of war to the firing upon Fort
Sumter by the Confederates.
"Thf administration has been consulting
the policy of President Lincoln
in so proceeding with affairs in the
bay of Charleston as to be on the defensive
rather than the offensive at the
opening of our Civil war. It is said
rhnt. T,inf?nln'R Dolicv was to make it
clear that the Federal government
would not be antagonized by any of
the foreign powers, inasmuch as we
bad not precipitated the war, and,
secondly, to avoid the payment at- the
close of the war of damages that would
be incurred on account of the destruction
of property by Federal troops,
but owned by the Confederates, first
(congress not having made a declaration
which would, in written law,
make us financially responsible) be absolved
from any financial liabilities
incurred by any one on the island of
Cuba, and, secondly, we will have
made it impossible for any armed interference
upon the part of any of the
powers.
"It is believed that there will be a
junction of the marine and other forces
landed by our fleets and the insurgents
at the point of our landing in Cuba.
War will then be in existence. Immediately
there is to be a march to the
seaports in the direction of Havana
and each one will be taken as reached.
Contemporaneous with the movement
of our soldiers on land will be that of
our fleet at Key West on the harbor of
Havana, which city is to be bombarded
from every direction.
"After the departure of the Spanish
troops from -Cuba will come the serious
question of privateering upon all vessels
sailing under the American flag.
It is not believed that more than three
weeks can elapse after the passage of
the resolution by congress before the
bombardment of Havana, unless Spain
voluutarily evacuates the island of
Cuba. It is believe that many months
will elapse before the privateering on
our merchantmen on the sea can be
stopped."
SPANIARDS ARE NOT COWARDS.
They Are Going to Get Licked ; But They
Know How to Fight.
Louisville Courier-Journal.
It is well not to go into war with
Spain under the supposition that it is
to be a walk-over for our navy. The
Spaniards, in the first place, have
been fighting for three years, and are
thus experienced in war; in the second
place, the Latins are as much a
fighting race as the Anglo-Saxons.
During the last 100 years Spain has
been engaged in war for GO years, and
there is much in such experience.
Her marines are recruited from her
seacoast population, and are skillful
sailors as well as brave men.
We can gain some idea of the desperate
courage with which the Latins
fight by recalling the history of the
naval struggle between Peru and Chili
in 1879. No more determination or
bravery was ever displayed. The
Peruvian ironclad Huuscar, after a
brilliant predatory expedition that
lasted for three months was returning
home to refit and repair under command
of Admiral Grau. On the 8th
of October he sighted a Chilian ileet
containing two ironclads, and after a
vain attempt to escape fought them
single-handed for hours, with terrible
losses. Admiral Grau was killed in
the conning tower ; a commander who
l?Iw* ?? <> c? clnin onrl tKo lion.
MiUUfCUCU iJiHI oiuiu, uuu iuv/ iivu
tenant who followed was shot dowu
by a marine in a Chilian ship, which
lay alongside. The carnage and
slaughter was fearful, but the few remaining
Peruvians resisted a hoarding
party until overpowered, and then it
was discovered that the chief engineer
of the Huascar had scuttled his ship,
though the victors managed to save
it. This was the most famous engagement
of the war, but in a previous
one, when a Chilian ship was sunk,
the crew resisted rescue by the Peruvians,
stabbing them with their knives.
Over half submitted to drowning rather
than capture. These people were
practically Spaniards, and probably
fought no better than Spaniards will
fight.
There can be no doubt of the issue
of the war with Spain, but it is well
uot to be too sangune at the start.
In this struggle between Cbili and
Peru tbe result was perhaps, decided
by the accidental sinkiug of the Peruvian
iron clad Independeneia, which
was decoyed into a shallow water by
a Chilian corvette and wrecked, while
Admiral Grau was winning u brilliant
victory with the Huascar. Accident
may give the Spanish the advantage
in the first battle, and then our enthusiastic
Americans may find themselves
in much the same condition as
were the Washington authorities after
the first Bull Ruu. It- is better to be
prepared for temporary reverses,
though sure of ultimate victory. We
have the righteous cause, and, are
thrice armed in that at any rate.

Wilks, the Negro who punished his
son so severely last week, was cried
before Magistrate Williams last Friday
and sentenced to the chaingang for
30 days. An effort to organize a
new military company in Chester is
meeting with encouraging success.
Another company, in addition to the
one already in the city, and that one
in the county, would give stimulus to
all of them. The patrous of the
telephone exchange have presented a
handsome bicycle to Miss Bland Sloan,
in recognition of her faithful service at
the exchange. This is a well-deserved
testimonial. Rev. T. C. Ligon,
pastor of Zion and Uriel churches,
was in the city Monday. We understand
that he will shortly move to
Kershaw, much to the regret of his
many friends in this county. The
"Weary Willie" that Magistrate Williams
so kindly furnished with a 25

out bis sentence and has gone to waru
other "sons of leisure" that the Ches- (

year?the time for the locust to talk.
"The locust talks," said he, "every 17
years, and the last time it talked was
in 1881, and this is the year for it to
talk again." Those who have never
beard the locust talk should remember
this and listen for the popping
music as they walk through the forest
this summer. Synodical Evangelist
Wm. Black, son of our townsman, '
Mr. C. Black, is conducting a success- '

last Thursday of spasms. The bereav- 1
ed mother has our sympathy in her (
sad affliction. The Negro, Mit '
Sadler, who murdered Bill Wells, f
white, in No. 4 township, will probably
be tried Friday. A special venire
will be summoned today or Thursday.
The concensus of opinion is that be
will bang. Justice demands that this
punishment shall be meted out to bim.
It is a plain case and there should be
no delay. It will require only ODe
day for this trial it is thought.

SPEECH FROM THE THRONE.
Bow the Queen Regent Puts the Case to
Her People.
The Spanish cortes assembled in extraordinary
session on Wednesday and
the Associate Press synopsizes the
speech of the queen regeut as follows:
"The grave anxieties which saddened
my rninu the last time I addressed
you have increased, and are heightened
by public uneasiness, conveying the
preseutimeut of fresh and greater complications
as a result of the turu which
events in Cuba have taken. These (
complications were brought about by i
a section of the people of the United I
States which, seeing that the autono- ]
my previously offered in my messuge
was about to be put in force, foresaw "
that the free manifestations of the Cuban
people, through its chambers, j
would frustrate forever the schemes t
against Spanish sovereignty, which ]
have been plotted by those who, with j
resources and hopes sent from the
neighboring coast, have fettered the |
suppression of the insurrection in that 1
unhappy island. Should the govern- J
meut of the United States yield to this \
blind current, nieuaces and insult, :
which we have hitherto been able to ]
regard with indifference, for they were (J
not un expression of the sentiments of ]
the true American nation, would be- ]
come intolerable provocations, which 1
would compel mv government, in defence
of the national dignity, to sever
relations with the government of the
United States.
"In this supreme crisis the sacred
voice of Him who represents human t
justice on earth was raised in counsels t
of peace and prudence, to which my '
government had no difficulty in heark- j
euing, strong in the consciousness of i
its right, and calm in the strict performance
of its duties." ]
Her majesty added : "Spain's gratitude
is due to the pope, and also
to the great Powers, whose action '
strengthens my conviction that Spain's ,
cause deserves universal sympathy, \
and that her conduct merits unani- <
mous approval.
"Possibly, however, the peace efforts {
may fail to control the evil passions t
excited against Spain. Lest this moment
arrive, I have summoned the
cortes to defend our rights, whatever j
sacrifice they may entail. Thus iden- ?
tifying myself with the nation, I not
only fulfill the oath I swore in accepting
the regeucy, but I follow the die- 1
lutes of a mother's heart, trusting to *
the Spanish people to gather behind
my sou's throne, and to defend it until ^
he is old enough to defend it himself, 1
as well as trustiug to the Spanish peo
pie to defend the honor and the terri- Lory
of the nation."
The queen regent then referred to
the trouble in the Philippine islands,
and, continuing, said : "Although a |
dark and gloomy future is before us, ^
the difficulties are not beyond our i
powers. With our glorious army, r
navy and the united nation before for- J
eign aggression, we trust in God that
we shall overcome, without stain on
our hoDor, the baseless and unjust ,
attacks made upon us."
?
ECKETARY ALGER. 1
It has been widely published that !
it is the policy of Secretary of War ,
Alger to place southern troops in the 1
front of the army that is to invade j
Cuba. The alleged reason for this is '
because southern troops are supposed !
to be more nearly "acclimated." Sec- ,
retary Alger, however, has denied the ;
statement as untrue. He says that it i
will be the policy of the war department
to assign troops to duty without j
any sectional discrimination whatever.

OFF TO THE WAR.
rT may he owing to the strong probawiiliao
nf with Snuin atlH to thft
net that our certificates contain no restricions
or forfeitures on account of war or
iots, that TIIE CAROLINA BENEVOLENT
ASSOCIATION has, within the
last ten days, made such wonderful
trides.
One agent alone, in four days, sent in 50
applications, and he remarked that he
ould not have them examined fast
nough to suit the applicants, as they
vanted protection at once. This is truly
ncouraging to the promoters of this
)enevoleut and co-operative plan of life
nsuranee, and it is a positive proof that
he intelligent people of this section of the
tate are anxious to foster a meritorious
ndustrv. The plan is simply the n?ightors
of the counties of which a division
onsists, insuring themselves at cost, with
nly an additional expense of $2 per
apita to guarantee the management to be
arried on upon systematic and business
irinciples.
We have been in business only about
our weeks and have averaged over 100
pplications a week, and have only four
ir five active agents in the field. We
impose to put this equitable, cheap aud
olvent plan of insurance within the reach
f eveiy eligible man and woman within
lie circuit of the various divisions. We
ave not heard an adverse criticism upon ?
ur plan of operation worthy of note since
;s introduction. ' We invite the most
urupulous investigation and challenge
lie world to produce a more equitable,
more solvent and a cheaper plan of life
rotection. D. E. BONEY, Manager.
