What is CASTORIA
Castoria is a harmless substitute for Castor Oil,
goric. Drops and Soothing Syrups. It is 1 leasant. It
contains neither Opium, Morphine nor other Narcotic
substance. Its age is its guarantee. It destroys B orins
and allays Feverishness. It cures Diarrhoea and B mrt
Colic. It relieves Teething Troubles, cures Constipation
and Flatulency. It assimilates the Food, regulates the
Stomach and Bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep.

Plenty of Honest Men in South Carolina.
Senator Tillman, combattipj^*tbe
view that the dispensary cannot be ad-v
ministered honestly, is quoted as sayj
ing in effect at Chester, “Woe be to the
State if there are not enough honest
men in it to run properly the dispen

This is buncombe logic to fool the un
thinking. There are plenty of honest
men in South Carolina. No State has
more for its size They are too honest
and conscientious to take any part in
the dirty and damning business in
which the State is now engaged. Here
in lies the difficulty—in the honest ad

to and for himself, amassing an im
mense fortune through the needs o'
his fellow-men when these pressed
heavily. He added nothing to the val
ue of human life by discovery, exploit
ation or benefaction. The sole aim
and purpose of his career was to make
money and this was done through tak
ing advantage of the momentary press
ure for money under which men of
ample property resources found them
selves from time to time.
He typified in an extreme degree
how worthless and how useless an\
man centered in self may be when re
garded from the alt r uistic standard
the sole standard that has gained ac
ceptance among men. He stands on
in conspicuous abhorence from iha'
standard. He profited by the weak
ness of men. He employed their want?
to enrich himself. All men served
him and he gave no service in return.
At Tillmm’s private meeting i-n Ail -

Every one who knew Gen. Hampton,
or even knew of him, knows that 1 e
never dodged an issue. And to clinch
t .e falsehood of Tillman’s insinuate n
here is a letter to the State of Monday
on the subject:

Dog Days And Rain.
According to a long-standing tradi-
iou Charleston and vicinity is to have
forty days of rain, beginning from Sun
day last. Sunday was the first of the “dog
days,” and when it rains on that day it
fontinues for forty successive days. It
has only rained twenty-seven days out
of the month of Ji ly, and if it ra' s
every day during the month of August
the increase will hardly be noticed.
Dog days are supposed to be that
part of the summer from about the be
ginning of July to the middle of Aug
ust—originally applied to the time dm-
ing which Sirious, or the Dog star, was
above the horizon v\ T itli the sun. The
r sing of t he Dog star was in ignorance
■mPposed to be the occasion of the ex
treme heat and disease incidental. It
was by mere accident, it is claimed by
scientists, that the rising coincided
with'the hottest season of the year, in
the times and the countries of thean-
eient astronomers. The time of the
rising depends on the latitude ot the
nlace. and is later and latpr every vear
in all latitudes until its orbit is swung
around It is claimed, and justly so,
that the star may rise in the dead of
winter

perhaps as large a reduction is looked
for when the law has been tested by a

$TTd0,000 for the first six months, as
against $2,190 <XX) fur the s um* period

Sent6iice of Bob Smalls Commuted.
Governor Heyward has yielded to the
planly ex pres-ed wishes of the leading
citizens of Darlington county, seconded
by Governor Glenn, of North Carolina,
and commuted to life imprisonment
the sentence of Bobb Smalls white,
sentenced to be hanged in Dunington
August 3rd for killing a negro.
1 le has commuted Smalls’ sentence
to life imprisonment. Smalls is a white
man from North Carolina, of tender
years, ignorant and irresponsible. He
killeda negro under circumstances of
great provocation, and the people who
petitioned for clemency in his behalf
believe tiiat if he had not been a stran
ger he hardly would have been convict.
»*d. His case has aroused widespread
interest and continual and determined
efforts have been made to have his life
spared. Governor Heyward’s action
comes after petitions for commutation
had been turned down by the board of
pardons, but nearly everybody familial
with the case will applaud its wisdom.

fans, and he immediateiy got up and

j saying that tin* fans were distributed
j among th- editors, but none were given
to Col Crews because lie “is one of tin
