A Queer Hair Restorer.?"Central
America is a great place for patent
medicines, said an experienced shipper.
"The natives down there seem to have
a natural passion for experimenting
with all kinds of remedies, and the
only thing that I ever knew to fall
flat was a lot of corn eradicator that
was sent into a district where everybody
went barefoot. I remember five
or six years ago a consignment got
mixed, and a druggist in one of the
five republics received a keg of liver
regulator and a crate of empty bottles
for hair tonic. You see they generally
ship the medicine and glassware sepa
rately, to dodge a clause in the tanu
schedule and some chap running a
store at the other end of the orders.
The druggist was in a quandary at
first; but the labels were very pretty,
so he finally put the liver regulator in
the hairtonic bottles and notified the
belles in the neighborhood that he
had something that would make
their tresses as beautiful as a dream.
The regulator had a great run ; but
the drugman was haunted by the fear
that the other chap bad palmed off
hair tonic for liver medicine and pois- i
oned a whole district. I
"He finally turned up, coming north '
on a banana boat, and proyed to be a
good fellow. He admitted that he
also received a mixed consignment
and had done exactly like the first 1
man. It didn't hurt them a particle, J
he declared, and, of the contrary, he <
had a lot of testimonials certifying to 1
remarkable cures. It's just as I tell <
you?Central America is the paradise 1
of the world for patent medicines."?

The Missionary's Little Joke.? 1
A native Maori chieftain, the descendant
of cannibal kings; is now complet- (
log his medical education in Chicago. 1
Cannibalism ended in his tribe, he says, ,
nKan "Riahnn Selwvn converted his ,
grandfather; but he tells some stories
of it which have a distinctly humorous
flavor. For instance:
It is said that once a chief captured
a missionary who was anything but a
toothsome morsel, as he was old and
thin and looked as if his flesh would
be tough. The missionary warned the
chief that he would not make a good
dinner and pulling up his trousers, cut
a slice off the calf of bis leg and offered
it to the chief.
The chief tasted it, said he didn't
like it and passed it to a subcbief.
The sub tasted it, made a wry face and
passed it on. The next man who took
a bite of it spat it out. The missionary
was released. After he had gone it
was discovered that he wore a cork
leg.
9S* The following story may account
for the smallness of some men's gifts
when a collection is taken: A boy,
on starting to church one Sunday, was
given, by bis father, a nickel and a
twent-ffve cents piece, and told that
he could put either the one or the
other into the contribution box. On
the boy's return he was asked which
coin he had contributed. He there- '
upon explained that the preacher had j
said that the Lord loveth a cheerful ]
giver, and added. "I knew I could <
give the nickel a good deal more cheer- <
fully than I could give the quarter, so
I- nlAlrnl onrl Iront t.hp. ,
x lurew iu iuc uiLnti uuu ??(.? ,
quarter." Many men can give a nickle
a good deal better than they can a
quarter.
Were They Differed.?The professor
was demolishing (as he believed)
Darwin and his theories?a task which
he frequently engaged in?when he
triumphantly wound up with the question
:
"If we are monkeys, where are our
tails ?"
The lecturer, who had been speaking
bis full hour, was startled to bear
in reply from one of the audience :
"We have sat on them so long that
they are worn off."
Warned.?"Did I understand you
to say somethin' about teachin' the
young idea bow to sboot ?" asked a
Clay county, (Ky.,) citizen.
"Yes," answered the man who is interested
in the work of education.
"Well, so far as this part of the
country is concerned you're workin'
on the wrong line. What you want
to do is to watch the boys at recess and ?
lam the fust one that brings a gun
to school with him."?Washington

DIED CURED.?ID some part ui naij
bleeding is still considered a sovereign (
cure for all kinds of sickness. A story i
is told of a mother who protested i
against the bleeding of her sick child. J
The doctor assured her that one more ,
application of the cups would insure recovery,
but when he came the next
morning he found the child dead.
"Madam," said the doctor, "be com- (
forted by knowing that your child died ,
cured."
1&- "Mamma," said small Charlie, ;
"I think I'll be a preacher when I grow |
up." "Very well, my son," replied .
the fond mother; "but what put the
idea into your head ?" "Well," re- (
plied the little fellow, "I s'pose I've
got to go to church all my life anyway,
and it's a heap more fun to walk
around and talk than it is to sit still."
A Limit.?"Now," said the careful *
newspaper man as he showed the
statesman an interview, "you are quite
sure you said all this."
"Yes," was the reflective answer;
"I'm sure I said it; but I can't be sure
about how long I'll remember I said
it."?Washington Star.

a drunken riot, and aa they pushed
through the gathering mobs in the narrow
streets they began to realize that
they themselves were objects of great
attention.
"There he is, the bloke in the tall
hat He's the leader!" shouted a rough
voice. President Marsh, with his erec
commanding figure, was conspicuous in
the little company.
"How has the election gone? It is
too early to know the result yet, isn't
it?" He asked the question aloud, and
a man answered: "They say second
and third wards have gone almost solid
for no license. If that is so, the whisky
men have been beaten."
"Thank God I I hope it is true," exclaimed
Henry Maxwell "Marsh, we
are in danger here Do you realize our
situation ? We ought to get the ladies
to a place of safety."
"That is true," said Marsh gravely.
At that moment a shower of stones and
other missiles fell over them. The narrow
street and sidewalk in front of them
were completely choked with the worst
elements of the Rectangle.
"This looks serious," said Maxwell.
With Marsh and Rollin and Dr. West
he started to go forward through the
small opening, Virginia, Rachel and
Loreen following close and sheltered by
the men, who now realized something
of their danger. The Rectangle was
drunk and enraged. It saw in Daniel
Marsh and Henry Maxwell two of the
leaders in the election contest who had
perhaps robbed them of their beloved
saloon.
"Down with the aristocrats f" shoutsd
a shrill voice, more like a woman's
than a man's.
A shower of mud and stones followed.
Rachel remembered afterward that
Rollin jumped directly in front of her
rod j^ceived on his head and chest a
oumoer of blows that would probably
lave struck her if he had not shielded
ier from them.
Ana just men, ueiure tuc pm-c
reached them, Loreen darted forward
it the side of Virginia and pushed her
aside, looking up and screaming. It
tvas so sudden that no one had time to
jatch the face of the one who did it.
But out of the upper window of a room
aver the very saloon where Loreen had
rome out a week before some one had
thrown a heavy bottle. It 6truck Loreen
an the head, and she fell to the ground.
Virginia turned and instantly kneeled
lown by her. The police officers by that
time had reached the little company.
Donald Marsh raised his arm and
shouted over the howl that was beginaing
to rise from the wild beast in the
mob.
"Stop! You've killed a woman!"
The announcement partly sobered the
arowd.
"Is it true ?" Henry Maxwell asked
is Dr. West kneeled on the other side of
Loreen, supporting her.
"She's dying!" said Dr. West briefly.
Loreen opened her eyes and 6miled at
Virginia. Virginia wiped the blood
from her face and then bent over and
rissed her. Loreen smiled again, and
the next moment her soul was in paralise.
And yet this is only one wcman out
)f thousands killed by this drink devil.
Drowd back now, ye sinful ?men and
women in this filthy street I Let this
august dead form be borne through
four stupefied eobered ranks. She was

CHESTER?The Lantern, October
17: Mr. James L. Guy, of Lowrysville,
is quite sick with Blight's disease.
He was extremely low yesterlay
but seems better this morning.
Mrs. M. J. Morrison and Miss Janie
Russell, of Rock Hill, who have been
visiting at Mr. Hamilton McCaudless',
returned home yesterday. Dr.
VV. DeK. Wylie's horse took fright
ibout the Southern depot Friday and
ran, throwing both Dr. and Mrs. Wylie
jut of the buggy. They were both considerably
bruised, the doctor worst but
aot seriously hurt. Some one entered
the store of Mr. J. J. Banks, at
Blackstock, Sunday night, through a
back window, and took some underwear,
groceries, and other articles.
We do not know that there is any
clue. A Negro who had been
with the circus was found dead in the
railroad cut beyond the overhead
bridge on the Pinckney Ferry road.
He had been killed, but the coroner's
jury could find no evidence to determine
whether he had been killed on the
train and thrown off, killed elsewhere
and placed there, or killed on the spot.
There was a label on his cap that bore
the name, W. E. Butler. A mule
belonging to Mr. A. M. Titman, of
Lowrysville, fell into an old well, probably
12 to 15 feet deep, at the rear of
the old Bennet shop, Saturday afternoon.
The mule had been hitched in
the lot but had got loose and was
walking about. The well was covered
in some way, but not securely enough
for the mule's safety. Ropes, bagging,
ana pulleys were brought but not used.
Some tbougbt that sbe could be lifted
out "by main force," but others
thought the "main force" plan would
not work, and to use the pulleys some
overhead fixtures would be necessary,
so a half dozen hands went to work
with shovels, elevating the bottom of
the well and lowering the surface '
around the top. A very important
factor in expediting the work was the 1
150 men who stood around the workmen
and gave advice. They hamper- 1
ed the men for elbow room, but this
was overbalanced by their valuable 1
suggestions as to how long it would
take to get the mule in jumping distance
of the top. Some asserted that 1
the task never could be accomplished, I
while others said that the mule would
be blind if sbe did get out. The work !
went od, however, and it was not long 1
till the animal was out. Probably no <
mule in the state ever received so <
many hearty cheers. She limped on ]
one fore leg, but otherwise showed no '
sign of injury. i
CHEROKEE?The Gafihey Ledger, '
October 17: 'Squire M. M. Glover, an ]
aged and highly respected citizen of I
this county, died at bis home on the 1
Shelby road, a few miles above Gaff- 1
ney, last Wednesday. Mr. Glover was I
in bis 84th year. There came near being
a stampede at the Butt tent Sat- I
urday night on account of several shots '
being fired down town. Officer Holl- (
man was endeavoring to persuade a 1
gentleman of color to stop in his wild j
flight from the clutches of the law; f
but the fleeing darkey did not tarry.
If the shooting bad any effect what- <
ever it was to cause the fellow to run i
that much faster. The case of M. <
C. and Mrs. Elizabeth Perry against l
the Gafihey Carpet Manufacturing com- '
pany, last week, resulted in the judge t
ordering a mistrial, the jury failing to ]
agree. The jury stood eleven for the t
plaintiff to one for the defendant. This <
was the last case tried and on Satur- 1
day court was adjourned. Mr. f
James Reynolds and Miss Lizzie Mor- 1
gan, a popular young couple of Trough, }
were united in the holy bonds of mat- ?
rimony at that place a week ago last ?

LANCASTER?Ledger, October 18:
Congressman D. E. Finley has been
in town since Monday. His constituents
are glad to see him. The better
they know him the more confirmed
they become in the opinion that he
will make the district a good repre-'
sentative. T. F. McDow, Esq., of
the Yorkville bar, and J. Harry Foster,
Esq., of Kershaw are here in attendance
on court. Ou last Friday,
at Whisanant's planing mills,
near Kershaw, a serious accident occurred
which came near resulting in
the death of Mr. T. C. Dalton. A bit
from the machiue flew out striking
Mr. Dalton above one of his eyes, penetrating
the skull and nearly putting
his eye out. At last accounts he was
doing very well. Jonas Thomas,
on Mr. Wesley Funderburk's place, a
near Tradesville, while handling a pis- t
101 00 OUDUay mail, ucciuGuittjijr ouui \
himself. The ball lodged iu his left t
leg below the knee joint and was ex- j
traded by Dr. VV. H. Sapp on Monday, c
The wound is painful but Dot serious.
Mr. D. H. Starnes, a subscriber i
iu the Indian Territory, writes us, "I t
will make half a bale of cotton to fc
the acre this year. Last year I averaged
a bale to the acre, but I will i
get nearly as much for this year's crop t
as last. Cotton is bringing 7 to 7J c
cents. The corn is good. Corn brings c
from 15 to 18 cents per bushel ou the u
market. We feed it to hogs and sell
the hogs at a good price. I like this t
country very well." The Moriah f
Baptist Association convened at Taxahaw
last Thursday, and continued t
through Sunday. Rev. S. N. Watson I
preached the opening sermon. All
the churches in the association were
represented except one, and a number
of orethren from sister associations A
were present. Rev. T. A. Dabney was
elected moderator, W. S. Porter, clerk,
and Wm. M. Blackmon was re-elected \
treasurer. The discussions were very n
interesting. Dr. G. W. Gardner, who s
was in attendance, representing The ii
South Carolina Baptist, made several I
interesting talks on the questions dis- v
cussed. The next meeting of the as- 1:
sociation will be held with Fork Hill a
Baptist church on Thursday before the b
second Sunday in October, 1900. 3
At Mr. John M. Hinsou's gin on Fri- v
day afternoon last, Rabb Blackmon 3
met with a serious accident. His cloth- t
ing was caught and he was jerked to ii
the saws with the result that one a
of his arms was sawed entirely of!, and ii
nis face, sbouiaer ana Dreast were a
badly sawed up. The saws going
through the ribs of his right breast t!
only lacked about one-fourth of an inch y
of penetrating his lungs. The dismem- lj
bered arm was taken into the gin and \
had to be cut out by Ilabb's brother, ii
Rabb walked to Mr. Hinson's house p
after the accident, and exhibited the p
stub of his arm and his other injuries, a
Drs. Haile and Twitty were sum- b
moned and did what they could for g
the unfortunate man. He is doing J
very well and will probably recover, s
The saws of the gin were so badly p
damaged that it had to be brought to ii
Messrs. JPoag & Harper for repairs. f
The court of general sessions for Lan- f
caster county convened here last Mon- t

IT MADE A DIFFERENCE.
A man was sitting in an easy chair
it the Her Grand the other evening in
:ompany with several others, and the
,alk gradually drifted to the trust conference
that has been in Bession in
Dbicago. After the matter bad been
tired thoroughly from all points of
flew, this man settled back in his chair,
ook two or three puffs at his cigar,
imiled a little and then said : "All
this talk about trusts reminds
ne of a man I used to know over in
Iowa. He lived a neighbor to me over
here, and he belonged to the Grange,
he forerunner of the Populist party.
This man was dead set against trusts.
3e hated the trusts worse than a tramp
tales work, and he was always
taranguing upon the evils of monopoies.
"Now, it happened that one spring
ill the farmers in the neighborhood
iad trouble in getting their seed corn

tsual, but hardly a kernel of it would

imong them until it was found that
,he man who hated trusts so savagely
tad a peculiar sort of corn that would
jrow. As soon as this fact was bruited
ibout-there was a prilgrimage toward
his man's farm, and everybody bought
ome seed corn.
"Of course, I was in the same boat
vith the rest of them, and I went over

" 'Well,' replied the trust hater, 'this

"I hauled out the money and paid
t over; but as I did so I slyly asked
dm if he did not consider .that he was
perating a monopoly. He looked
lown his nose a little, and then glanced
ip, with the remark :
"'Maybe so, but I am interested in

WHEN BRYAN NEEDED BREAD.
Ltteinpt to Make the Great Leader Appear
Mean and Sordid.
Some of the political enemies of
Villiam Jennings Bryan are trying to
aake political capital out of an alleged (
tatement Bryan is said to have made
a letter to J. Sterling Morton, of
Nebraska, written 11 years ago, in ;
vbic-h Mr. Bryan thanked Morton for (
lis support in an effort to secure an i
ppointment as secretary of the Neraska
state board of transportation. ,
lorton has dug up this letter, which ]
/as addressed to him as a friend by <
lr. Bryan, and he is using it, claiming !
hat Bryan used this language in speakag
of the office he was seeking: "I
?if Jo fKq mnnav t.Viaf ih2 ,
&SUI O J'UU lUAb 111 AO l/UV LUUUVj VUMV aw 4
a the office, and not the honor that
ttracts me."
It is explained by Mr. Bryan's friends
hat at that time he was a young lawer,
just starting on his career and,
ike many others at that stage of life,
vas sorely pressed for means of mak- t
ng a competency. He sought the
dace, which paid a salary of $2,500 ]
>er year, so as to enable him to make j
. living for himself and family, not
laving at that time made great pro- i
;ress in the law. He was the friend of
. Sterling Morton, and had loyally j
upported the latter in his political as- f
lirations, and in return Morton promsed
to help Mr. Bryan secure the ofice
he sought, Mr. Bryan admitted
rankly that he needed the salary of :
he office. Now that Morton and ,
Sryan are political enemies, Morton
has made public the personal and
friendly letter Mr. Bryan sent him
years ago.
The letter in question is given as
follows:
"Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 13, 1898.
"Hon. J. Sterling Morton, Nebraska
City, Neb.:
"Dear Friend?Your kind letter to
Mr. Lease was received and delivered,
I think it was well received. The P.
S. was judicious, I think. I am grateful
to you for your endorsement. Had
hesitated to write you because I dislike
soliciting aid. I assure you that
it is the money that is in the office, not
the honor, that attracts me. If successful
in getting it, it will tide me
over mv beeinninir here. With regards
to the iadiea, I am yours very truly,
W. J. Bryan."
