Didn't Fool Him.?He was shaviDg
away at the chin of a customer
when the door of his humble shop
opeued, aud a colored hoy sneaked in
and sat down. The barber looked at
him two or three times and then asked
him what he wanted.
"Jim," said the other, after fidgeting
about for a minute, "yo' was ingaged
to my sister, 'Linda."
"I was, sah," was the reply. "Yes,
sah, me an' 'Lioda was engaged an' I
was gwine to become yo'r brudderlaw."
" 'Linda seud word."
"She did?"
"Voe 'T.inda wanted me to stop

"I hope the deah angel hain't dun

"Ob, no. She jest done got married
to Bill Lee dis mawnin's an' she axed
me to stop an' tell you."
"Wh'what! Yo'r sister 'Linda done
got married to dat nigger Bill Lee !"
shouted the barber as he waved the
razor around his head.
"Yes. She dun changed her mind

"She did, eh ! Boy, has 'yo got a
flatfooted, black-hided, 'possum-faced
sister named 'Linda? Great big gal,

He Was Kind, but She Was
Clever.?She is a clever woman, a
past master in the art of strategy. So
agree all who rode down on the street
car the other morning.
She got on a south bound Clark
street limits train at Belden avenue.
Every seat was taken, and almost
every strap had a man or woman suspended
from it. She looked about
hesitatingly for an instant, but every
man was wonderfully interested in his
paper. Then she took hold of a strap
almost in front of a young man, a very
young man, who was blushing guiltily
as he pretended to read.
While the young man blushed and
the woman thus hung her handkerchief
fluttered, accidentally by all appearances,
to the floor. The young
man looked up just then and saw the
white bit of cambric. The feeling of
chivalry which he evidently was tryinor
to stifle would not be stifled longer.
He arose aud stooped for the handkerchief.
This was the woman's opportunity.
While his back was turned
she gently slipped into his seat.
When he turned about and saw what
had occurred, he almost collapsed.
But the woman did not. She took her
handkerchief out of his hand, smiling
innocently.
"Thank you," she said sweetly,
"You are very kind."?Chicago Journal.
A Cold Rebuff.?To a young man
who stood smoking a cigar on a down
town corner the other day there approached
the elderly and impertinent
reformer of immemorial legend.
"How many cigars a day do you
smoke?" asked the licensed meddler
in other people's affairs.
"Three," replied the youth as patiently
as he could.
Then the inquisition continued.
"How much do you pay for them ?"
"Ten cents each," confessed the
young man.
"Don't you know, sir," continued
the sage, "that if you would save that
money by the time you are as old as I

annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Lancaster Cotton Mills was held in
the office of T. Y. Williams, Esq., at

L. Clinton. Will Sanders, who has
for a long time been evading the officers
of the law, was captured here
last Friday night by Policemen Carroll
and Williams. He was wanted in
York county, S. C., for retailing and
was turned over to Officer Dobson, of
Yorkville. We regret to chrouicle
the sad news telling of the death of
Mr. John J. White, of Bessemer City.
He died at his home last Tuesdfly evening
at seven o'clock. Mr. 'White had
been sick for sometime with typhoid
fever and for the last few days his life
had hung in the balance. The following
party left last Friday for the
Seashore Hotel near Wilmington. Mr.

renort a delightful trio. The remain
der of the party expect to be back
uext Tuesday. Gastonia's secoud
team the Midgets, have tried their
band ou two occasioos witbiu the last
few days. The first game was played
on the Oakland High school grouuds
last Monday evening. It was a pretty
game played well by both sides. The
score resulted in 11 and 10 in favor of
Gastonia. The features of the game,
were Smyre's batting &nd Liueberger's
home run. The Midgets tackled McAdenville
yesterday and this resulted
in a victory for Gastonia. The score
was 26 to 24. The features of this
game were the large scores on each
side. At the noon hour last Saturday
there was a blow amounting to
a little hurricane at Bessemer City.
The furious part lasted about five minutes,
a storm of rain and some hail acnnmnonuinor
if. A number of bin trees
-& --- ?
were snapped off like sticks 10 feet
above the ground. The boiler room
of the Southern Cotton mills sustained
considerable damage. The roof was
blown off and the south wall almost
totally demolished. Beyond Bessemer
the hail was severe. At Gastonia the
storm moderated into only a stiff wind
and a good rain. There was a
shooting affair on Mr. Ephraim Holland's
place near town last Monday
morning, in which Mr. Holland and a
cropper name Jim Weatherspoon were
the active participants. A Negro boy,
who is a brother of Weatherspoon,
was plowing a mule belonging to Mr.
Holland, and Mr. Holland went to the
held and attempted to take the animal
from the boy, also threatening to use
a pitchfork which "lie carried. Weatherspoon
who has been sick with fever,
seeing Mr. Holland and the pitchfork
and anticipating trouble, put a pistol
in bis pocket and went down to where
the parties were, and when he bad
gotten at a close shooting distance,
drew the weapon and fired at Mr. Holland
three times, none of the balls,
however, taking effect. Some of Mr.
Holland's neighbors hearing of the
trouble, armed themselves and went in
search of the Negro, but he had fled.

Raleigh from Manila. Among the
many interesting experiences he had,
he was a guest at the banquet in New
York when Captain Coghlan of the
Raleigh made the remarks in a speech
on that occasion with reference to the
German government which caused such
a sensation. At the time he was sitting
by ex-Mayor Strong, and asked
him if there were any reporters present,
and was told that they were excluded.
It is familiar to our readers
how the entire affair was reported in
the papers next day.
HIS NOVEL POINT OF VIEW.
The young man was either an optimist
or the possessor of a Hurveyized
steel armor-plated nerve. Perhaps he
was a little of both.
A short time ago he came to the conclusion
that he would like to insure his
life. With this object iu view he made
application to a prominent company.
After filling out the necessary blank
he received an invitation to call upon
the medical officer of the company and
undergo the usual physical examination.
In due course he presented himself
at the office of the examining
physician.
Requesting the young man to remove
his coat and vest the doctor produced
a stethoscope and began his ex
amination. All at once oe siuppeu
and regarded the candidate with an
expression of alarm.
"Young man," he said, "do you
think you can bear a shock ?"
"Oh, I guess so," was the cheerful
respose. "Fire away and let me hear
the worst."
"You have only one lung!" announced
the doctor solemnly.
"Well, what of that ?" retorted the
candidate, with the utmost composure.
"I never told you I had any more, did
I ?"
"What!" exc aimed the doctor, "do
you mean to say you were aware of
your conditiou ?"
"Of course I was. Do you suppose
a man could have only one lung with-J
out being aware of the fact?"
"And yet," said the doctor, "you
apply to m respectable company for a
policy of lue insurance. Do you expect
to get it ?"
"I certainly do. Not only that, but
I think I ought to get it at a substautial
reduction iu the premium."
"Upon what ground, may I ask ?"
"Upon the ground that having only
one luug I am 50 per cent, less liable
to contract consumption than if I had
two lungs."?New York World.
The Texas Floods.?A special of
Saturday from Caldwell, Texas, suys:
hit vera in the Brazos flood dis
trict report that not less than 200
square miles of cotton bearing land
has been flooded. Every acre of it
would have produced a big bale. Basing
the loss on five cents figures, the
crop destroyed on these plantations
was worth almost $4,000,000. It is
claimed the flood has cost the people
of Texas little less than $10,000,000.
Thousands of mules have been drowned,
all of the domestic animals have
perished, and rented houses aud Negro
quarters have been swept away.
The gins are nearly all ruined, and
hundreds of plantation stores, carrying
big stocks of general merchandise, are
under water. Not a bridge has escaped,
and not a train has passed over
the Santa Fe railroad between Brenham
aud Miluno for a week.
Charged to Colonel Wrenn's
Cure.?The death of H. B. Plant recalls
a quaint story which is told by a
newspaper correspondent well-known
in New Orleans. "Some years ago I
was broke in New York," he said, "aud
hearing that W. B. Wrenn, passenger
traffic manager of the Plant system,
was in town, I called on him aud asked
for a pass to Jacksonville. The
last time I called the clerk wouldn't
| let me in, and banded me one of my
cards, on which Colonel Wrenn had
written, 'Keep this fellow out; if he
bothers me any more I'll go crazy."
That gave me an idea, and I made a
bee line for Mr. Plant's private office.
'Mr. Plant,' I said, 'I want a pass to
Jacksonville, Fla.' The old gentleman
looked at me in amazement. 'On
what grounds?' he asked. 'In exchange
for treating Colonel Wrenn for
threatened mental trouble,' I replied.
Mr. Plant's face clouded. 'What kind
of a game is this, sir?' he demanded,
sternly. 'Colonel Wrenn is perfectly
sane, sir, and I won't permit?' 'Pardon
me,' I interrupted; 'but Colonel
Wrenn is at this moment apprehensive
of lunacy, and believes firmly that it
rests entirely with me to avert the at
attack. I have his written statement
to that effect in my pocket.' 'Let me
see it! Mr. Plant fairly shrieked. I
handed him the card and got ready to
run. As he read the inscription bis
face relaxed. His piercing gray eyes
began to twinkle. Finally he lay back
in his chair and roared with laughter.
'Here, Mr. Smith !' he called to a clerk,
'give this young man transportation to
Jacksonville and charge it to medical
treatment for Colonel Wrenn.'"?
New Orleans Times-Democrat.
The secretary of agriculture has
about perfected a plan whereby graduates
from agricultural colleges can
come to the department and do postgraduate
work. Many of the agri
cultural colleges throughout the country
are turning out every year good
men, who are often prevented from
continuing the valuable lines of special
work which they pursued while in
college through inability to continue
their studies. The secretary's plaD,
which has received much careful
thought and consideration, will make
it possible for such young men to
spend a year or two in Washington,
tvnrWintr under the direction of the
" v* r? ?
beads of scientific divisions. It is not
expected, says a correspondent of the
New York Sun, that they shall undertake
any original work, but carry on
such investigations as may be assigned
to them. It is proposed to pay men of
this kind a nominal salary, barely
enough to cover expenses, the pay being
not so much to induce them to go
to Washington as to afford an opportunity
for deserving young students to
advance in the special fields they have
chosen while in college.
Santiago Fever Situation.?A
letter received Sunday by Will T.
Hale, of Nashville, Tenn., from his
son Charles, now in Santiago Cuba,
gives some insight into the yellow fever
situation there. He is an officer in the
Fifth United States infantry. The
letter says:
"Since I wrote you last yellow fever
has broken out here. It carried ofT
four members of the regimental band
in three days, and in two weeks we
have lost 27 men out of our regiment.
Four of these were of company M, the
company to which I belong.
"One night at 9 o'clock the physician
made us get outside the barracks with
nothing on but the Cuban atmosphere,
our guns, belts and 100 rounds of am

carry a 'rag' out with us. The next
moruing our company was divided
into small squads in charge of a noncommissioned
officer and scattered all
about the country."
Derided.?An Austin colored waiter
told a Boston man at a hotel that iu
eastern Texas a white man had married
a Negro woman.
"Was he not derided?" asked the
Bostonian, in the classic speech of the
"Huh of culture."
"He was, sah," beamed the Negro.
"Dey rided him out oh towu on a
rail."?Household Words.

PHOTOGRAPHY
X? AX ART
AND it takes an artist to be a photographer.
One who is not an artist
doesn't stand mucn 01 a cnance 01 matting
a success at photography. I have
given years of study to this especial line
and I can say with pride that my work
will compare favorab ly with that of any
photographer in this section.
The best and most perfect photographs
are the results of experience and not ex- *
periments. I do all of my developing,
retouching and finishing, thereby obtaining
the best possible results.
As Far As Prices
Are concerned, you need not worry yourself
along that score. I know that my
prices are reasonable and you will agree
with me when I tell you what they are.
I am also prepared to develop and print
pictures taken with pocket cameras. If
you have a Kodak or "Vive or any other
camera, and for any reason you can't develop
and print your pictures, bring them
to me at my gallery on West Liberty
street. J. R. SCHORB.
