During the four years of his incumbency he has made one of the best Gover nors south Carolina has ever had. Although a member of a family alw’ays of social distinction and wealth, he is the only one of his name, who has ever sought or held office in this state. He not only broke his own family record hut restored the high gubernat orial standard for w’hich South Carolina wras conspicuous pre vious to 1890. It can be truly said of Gover nor Heyward that he is too good a man to leave politics. There is need for such men. Promoters ot Brest Electric Lines Aiken. On Thursdny Messrs J. J. Timmes, C. R.

He was urged by some o'" his officers to give his own son command of a brigade, but replied that he could not appoint an untried offi- er important a position. ”He paid no m re attention to per sonal antonisim than to personal affec tion in the management of the army. He re ommended a certain officer for promot on, despite the fact that friends urged him to withdraw his favor be cause the officer wuis in the habit of speaking disparaging!}’ of Lee. “The question is not what he thinks of me, but what I think of him/ he said. ‘I have a very high opinion of this officeJ as a soldier, and I shall cer tainly recommend him for » romotion, and do all in my power to secure it.” , “One of his officers, speaking of the enemy, once remarked : ‘I wish those people were all dead.’” “ * How can you say that!’ Lee remon strated, ‘Now’, I wish they were all at home attending to their own business, leaving us to attend to ours”.

A man was once condemned In At ghanistnn to have his ears sliced off at a minor punishment. He had a power ful friend, however, who was mud: attached to him. This friend begged the late ameer In duly submissive tones to allow him to perform the op eration, a favor which was granted However, the amateur begged the ameer to show him what portion ol each ear he wished to be removed. The ameer accordingly touched them light ly.
