Lawlessness In South Carolina.
The following from the Marion Star is
a heavy indictment:
"Unless our jurors soon become a
little more conscientious and begin to
have some alight regard to their oaths,
there is no telling to what leofcths law?
lessness may not grow in South Carolina.
As matters are now progressing the
amount of bloodshed that is constantly
occurring in this State is appalling.
Scarce a court' passes in almost any
County in it but what there art bbe or
more murder cases fob trial on the crimi?
nal calendar, and which, when tried,
almost invariably result in a verdict of
acquittal. With so many homicides
constantly occurring, and such a small
per cent, of convictions resulting, justice
is necessarily abused^ since it is utterly
impossible that the victim should always
? have.been the aggressor, and that the
:person charged with murder have so
frequently acted only in self-defense."
While such an arraignment may place
au uhdiae'8har#?f^blame ?on^Jur?rs if
suggests the word$f the Bord, by his .
prophet i:Hbsea iv: i zh . tffi<& Lord?"
hath a controversy with, the"^inhabitants
of the land, because there "-- is7 no truth',
nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the
land. By swearing, and lying, and kill?
ing, and stealing, and committing adul?
tery, they break out, and blood tpucheth
blood. -Therefore, shall the land^ mourn,
and every one that dwelleth therein shall
languish."
Well may every one who mourns the
scandals of the times ask, in the language
of the Psalmist: . "Who will r?e up for
me against the evil do era? or who will
stand up for me against the workers of
iniquity?"

Queer Babies In Africa.
Was there ever a little girl who s did
not love dolls? ~It would seem-not, forj
the missionaries in Africa . have found
that the little girls there make imitation
babies, clumsy, awkward, but. to .them.
ldvoTy. "Just like the little girls in
America; they prefer live dolls if they
can have them, and so play with dogs,
treating them as dolls; doing just as you
dbj and yet so differently 1 When you
play with your kitten or dog and call it
your baby, you put an apron or a towel,
on it for address, and hold It in: your lap,
rocking it,, and .'-singing "Byo baby 1"
Or-you put it 'carefully on a pillow or
the sofa or lounge; and pat it, perfectly
content if it will only lie still- and "be
good." f
Just as you see real mothers do with
real babies, so yon do. The little girl
iriAfrica ties^et?^^g, /or' pig up,
and then ties it on her hack, and has a
lovely- time; ;b?e:.d?es just what she sees
real mothers do with real babies. Little
girls, no matter where they live, think
their mammas' way of doing things the
right way, and imitate them. The little
Indian girl straps her baby on ? board

'feel that Bhe was having a good time if
she sat androcked it,, or made, clothes

Do Not Sell the Farm.
Farmers, like men in other pursuits,
are frequently: troubled with doubts' and
perplexities that too often lead to a
despondent condition. Crops fail, sick?
ness-comes, stock dies, and other causes
brings on a state of gloom that at last
results in offering, the old farm for Bale.
To all in this condition', I Would earn
eatly.say, do not be.rash; cling- to the
old farm.. Occasionally there : will be a
bad-year and perhaps it will be the very
year on which calculation were made to
pay so mrtch of a mortgage, or to extend
a definite amount in improving the farm
or its .buildings. Don't brood over it.
Accept it like a man and. make a more
determined effort next year.. <,SeepVarid
harvest time are gaaranteed, and though
a temporary deranger?ent may occur,,it'
is only exceptional.
Try and find what your particular farm
is best adapted for. Plovr well, use good
seed, plant only what "can be cared for,
cultivate often. Do not try to raise ten
acres of corn at a loss when five can be
grown'with gain and don't keep twenty
ordinary; cows that barely pay for the
trouble of milking, when fifteen of a good
grade would bring substantial returns,
j Take, good care of your a took, feed well
and see that they are provided with com?
fortable quarters. Have a place for all
tools under cover, and See that they are
returned' there when you are through
with them.' Sell all that the farm does
not require for its maintenance, except
hay; clover and straw,-' which should be
utilized at home.';, Do not waste any?
thing or allow others to do bo. Care in
little things will amply repay in the end.
Do not overwork your help, and see that
each Odo in your employ has definite
hours for labor, always looking more to.
quality than quantity. Work with them
always, and never leave anything to be
done without your presence.. Let all
your farm work be systematic ; neglect
nothing. Plan well and execute promptly
and thoroughly, and the old farm will
grow in value yearly. With "push" for
a watchword there will be no thought
for selling the homestead.

Raise Colts.
In conversation last Saturday with Mr.
J. Furman Bradham, who lives near this
place, he told ub of 'a fine colt he owns,
only 14 months old, that he Isploughibg.
He 8-craped an acre of cotton with this
colt in just one hoUr and ten minutes.
Who can beat it?
Mr. Bradham is one of the largest
stockraiaefs in the county, and he seldom
raises anything but blooded stock. He
raises and sells fine Jersey tattle, and now
has a favorite cow that gives nineteen
quarts of milk a day.
Bat to go back to the colt. A number
of our progreesive farmers are raising
colts, with considerable success and pro St.
In fact it coats, very little to raise a colt.
The mare when in foal and while raising
the colt can for most of the Mine work on
the farfci.
Every year thouaands and thousands of
dollars are spent in this country for horses
and mules, at an average cost of $140 to
$150.. Two-thirds of this amount could
be saved to the country if our farmers
would raise their own stock. It is not
convenient for every one to raise colts,
we .hear' someone say.' All b osh I . It .'is
.convenient and practicable' for.any and
every farmer to raise colts. We have in
mind a certain Methodist preacher, who
^always traveled large circuits, having from
twelve to eighteen churches, and taking
four weeks to make the round, and who
raised a number of colts. After his mare
had foaled, he would let her rest ten
days or two weeks and then hitch her to.
his sulky for a drive of twenty or thirty
miles a day, the colt thriving on the
drive. By the. time the colt was a month
old he would accustom it to the halter,
and halter it to the dam's side on these
drives. The colt knew nothing else than
to be gentle, and never had to be broken
to the saddle, harness, or plongb. Sim'
ply put it at the work, and it would do it.
For forty odd years this preacher pursued
this course' successfully, raising many
very fine colts. We say if this preacher
could raise colts under these disadvant?
ages'/any farmer ?ught tobe able to raise
them. -

Eat Honey.
Thousands and tens of thousands of
children are dying all around us, who,
because their ever developing nature
demands sweetness, crave and eagerly eat
adulterated "candies" and "syrup" of
modern times. If these would be fed on
honey instead, they would develop and
grow up into healthy men and women.
Children would rather eat bread and
butter; one pound of honey will reach
as-far as two pounds of butter, and has,
besides, the advantage of being far more
"healthy and pleasant tasting, and always
?remainsgood,-while butter soon becomes
rancic., and often produces a cramp in
the stomach, eruptions, soreness, vomi?
ting and diarrhea. Pure honey should
always be^freely used in every family.
Honey eaten Upon wheat bread is very
beneficial to health. The use of honey
instead of sugar for almost every kind of
cooking is as pleasant for the palate as it
is healthy for-the stomach. In prepar?
ing blackberry; raspberry' or strawberry
shortcake, it is infinitely superior. It is
a common expression that honey is a
luxury having nothing to', do with the
life-giving principle. .This is an error.
Honey is food in one of its most concen?
trated forms. True, it docs not add so
much to the growth of muscles as does
beefsteak, but it does impart other proper?
ties nah less necessary to health and vig?
orous physical and intellectual action.

SeDaLU, Mo., June 20.?This is a live
city of 20,000 inhabitants, and not one of
this number knew just how many fools
there were among them until they made
themselves known in an3wer to an adver?
tisement. Sedalia has had a mad dog
epidemic. About two week ago a strange
nog appeared in this commuuity afflicted
with the rabies and bit several others.
The dog was killed, but not until it had
done fatal work. A number of dogs
bitten weht mad and spread the disease.
The aninials were killed as rapidly as
possible and the city council met in.
special session at the call of the mayor
and passed a muzzling ordinance. There?
after dogs were muzzled or ruthlessly
shot down by the police, and Sedalia
was in the midst of a regular hydropho?
bia scare.
Thb epidemic Created a great deal of
talk about madstones and their efiicacy.
The Btone had supporters and detractors,
and the argument waxed warm. There
are two madstones of great age in Sedalia
?-one is owned by R. A. Blair, a wealthy
merchant, and one by Dr. T. E. White, a
veterinary surgeon, A great number of
persons expressed unbounded confidence
in madstones in general, and these mad
stones in particular.
Now, Dr. Edward F. Small, a physi?
cian of standing and chief surgeon for
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway,
when the epidemic broke out owned a
kennel of seven valuable bird dogs. They
became affected with rabies, one by one,
and were put to death. A few days ago
the last dog of the doctor's kennel took
the disease violently. Dr. Small bad
no faith in the madstone efiicacy and
determined to test some of the gentlemen
who had done bo much'talking in its
favor. Before killing the last dog, he
published in the Sedalia Bazoo a state?
ment that he had a rabid dog and would
give $500 in cash to any one who would
be bitten by his dog and trust to a
madstone exclusively for a cure. Dr.
Small little thought that any one would
have the hardihood to accept hiBjoffer, but
he was suddenly and thoroughly unde?
ceived.
He waB immediately besieged with
applicants for a dose of rabies from far
and near, in person - and by mail. The
further the news traveled the more
applicants he received. The first appli?
cant was a man named Dillon, from
Arkansas, a stranger who happened to
be in the city at the time. He went to
Dr. Small and offered himself in dead
earnest as an applicant for the $500
reward. Dr. Small was unprepared for
this. It was assuming a phase that he
had not anticipated. The Arkansas man
was in earnest, and Dr. Small, not believ?
ing in madstone curative properties, and
not wishing to take the risk of the man's
death, did not have the nerve to close the
contract, but backed down.
The doctor explained that he did not
care for the loss of $500 but he did not
believe hydrophobia could be cured and
he did not wish to be a party to even a
fool's death, as he expressed it. Seeing
that he was likely to be besieged by an
army of cranks who were willing to gain
notoriety by being bitten by a mad dog,
he hastily withdrew his offer and publish?
ed the withdrawal. But the Arkansas
man was not to be put off in this manner.
Having been knocked out of the coveted
$500 h e determined, nevertheless, to prove
his faith in mad stones. Seeking Dr.
White for a witness he proceeded to Dr.
Small's residence. There he gained access
to the rabid animal.
The dog was writhing horribly, foaming
freely, and snapping viciously, It was in
the midst of a terrible convulsion and evi?
dently in tho last stage of rabies. The
rash man boldly bared his arm, deliber?
ately stepped up to the furions animal
and received a bite. The animal buried
its] venomous fangs in the flesh of the
man's arm, bit out a chunk of flesh, leav?
ing a gaping and ghastly wound. The
dog died in convulsions fifteen minutes*
later. The man repaired to Dr. White's
office and applied the madstone. It ad?
hered several times. The man had his
wound bound up, and expressed himself
as satisfied that he would recover speedily
and safely.
Though the dog was dead this was not
the end of Dr. Small's proposition. Ac?
ceptances began to pour in, not only by
mail, but by telegraph. Up. to date he
has had to pay out several dollars in
receiving telegrams. Among those who
telegraphed was a woman in Kansas City
who wanted to be bitten. She asked it
women came under the rules of the
proposition and wanted to come on the
next train if bo. J. W. Dickson, of
Kansas City, the owner of a madstone,
WiOie by mail and wanted to be bitten.
He wanted the dog taken to Kansas City,
and- offered to put up a forfeit; of $1,000
to bind him to be bitten. In case Dr.
Small would not or could not take the dog
to Kansas City be signified his willingness
to come to the dog and bring his mad
stone with him. Mr. Dickson claims to
have cured 1,350 people bitten by mad
dogs with his single mad stone in twenty
years. "His stone was brought by his
father from Ireland, and can be traced
back, he Bays, to the year 1719. He
further wrote to Dr. Small and turned the
challenge.
"If you will let the dog bite you, and I
don't cure you with my madstone. I will
give your family $10,000; and lam ready
to put up the money now; furthermore,
if you will cite one individual out of the
1,350 cases treated by me for hydrophobia
in the last twenty years that I have lost,
I will give you $5,000. I can find, besides
myself, plenty of men right here in Kan?
sas City who will take your offer of $500.
I will guarantee to bring five men to be
bitten, each one for $100, if that will
suit you."
The dog is dead now, and this puts an
end to the notoriety to be gained by
cranks who want to be bitten by mad
dogs.
The man who was bitten is well and
hearty now, but fears are entertained for
his future. Dr. Small thinks his mind is
affected. Mad dogs are becoming scarce,
but it will be a long time before Sedalia
forgets this epidemic.
What Is Said In Washington,
'Washington, June 30.?South Caro?
linians here are amazed at the verdict
in the McDow case. It will not satisfy
justice-loving citizens to draw the color
line and assert that the remarkable ver?
dict was due to the presence of seven
colored men in tho jury box. There
were five white men on the jury. What
of them ? They cannot escape condemna?
tion for the part they played in the dis?
graceful farce. An editorial in the New
York World of to-day about expresses
the general sentiment here. It snys:
"The trial leaves no doubt in any hon?
est mind, however, as to the real nature
of the crime. McDow justly adjudged
himself guilty when he tried, for some
hours after the killing, to obliterate the
evidence and make away with the body
of his victim. That was the act of a man
conscious that a murderous purpose had
prompted his murderous deed, that
a murderous spirit still remained in
his heart. Yet this man is acquitted
and i3 henceforth subject to no punish?
ment except such as the loathing and
contempt ~of all honorable men can
inflict. He, a married man and a father,
deliberately sought to degrade and des?
troy a defenceless girl, following her for
that purpose even into her employer's
house, which he enters like a sneak thief.
When the girl's employer with chivalric
impulse and a high sense of duty sought
to save her, McDow shot him to death
from behind, and then triied to bury the
body under the floor of a closet. That is
the story. It does not present a state of
facts which'ought to have led to an ac?
quittal,' It is a sad commentary upon
Southern justice, and a fresh blot upon
the State of South Carolina, which per?
mits its foremost and most useful citizen
to be slain like a dog without making
even an honest effort to punish his
slayer."

forty-eight years there was not a law
case in the town of Meddybemps, Me.;

Washington, .Tune 30.?E. A. Web?
ster has cone home, having grown weary
of waiting for Secretary Windom and the
President to determine" who ahall succeed
Collector Bradley. Mr. Webster, like
many other office-seekers who have been
here for several months, is very much
disgusted with the dilatory tactics of the
present Administration. Before leaving
for home Mr. Webster remarked that if it
was not for the efforts his friends have
made in his behalf ho would throw up
the sponge and give no further thought
to the subject. It ?b apparent that the
< Administration does not intend to rat fy
: the slates that were made up in South
Carolina immediately after the last
Presidential election.
There ia a general feeling among the
colored Republicans from the South that
they need expect but little encourage
ment or patronage from President Har?
rison. It is pretty well understood now
among South Carolinians that none of
the important Federal offices in their
State will go to colored men. It has
taken them tieveral months to realize that
fact, but those who have been here trying
to pull the wires now acknowledge that
this is to be a white man's administration
so far as South Carolina is concerned.
At the present writing Bray ton has a
fair chance of being made collector of in?
ternal revenue. During the past two
days his stock has advanced materially
through the influence of a member of the
Cabinet, who has no voice in making the
appointment. He has, it is understood,
written a strong letter to Secretary
Windom urging the appointment of
Brayton.
Col. Bryce, who has been figuring
around here for some time as Webster's
first lieutenant, and also an applicant for
a deputy collectorship, is very disconso?
late at the decline in the Webster boom,

They "Labored" With Him,
In conversation the. other day an old
residenter related this anecdote which oc?
curred some forty years ago:
. On Shoal Creek there lived a number
of old-time gentlemen with their antique
notions of life, with the decanter of old
liquors on the side-board as the corner?
stone of their far famed hospitality and
the mainstay of the domestic economy.
Notwithstanding the universality of whis?
ky drinking the churches, as a rule, were
more rigid in disciplining their members
for drunkenness than they are now.
Among those whose membership was at
Shoal Creek church was Judge L-, and
in an unguarded moment he took "too
much" and was seen drunk. The next
conference promptly appointed a commit?
tee to visit the brother, which committee
consisted of Judge P-and Judge
W-. At the appointed day the com?
mittee went over to visit the offender who
gave them a hearty welcome, and all took
a good old social drink which was oft re?
peated during their lengthy stay. They
all got on a regular "razzee," and the
committee forgot the object of their visit.
The next conference called for a report on
the case, when one of the gentlemen arose
and said that they had labored with the
brother and were satisfied. Judge L-,
who was present this time, made his state?
ment ana finished with the remark that if
he ever got drunk again the church would
do well to send to him men who were not
as fond of liquor as he was himself.?

been felt.
The local paper thus describes the first
day, with its terrors:
. "The first great shock was followed at
intervals by more or less heavy shocks for
over two hours, until seventy- eight shocks
bad been recorded, of which the first,
thirteenth, fifteenth and the eighteenth
were very severe. At the first-shock?
which was something fearful, rocking
buildings from side to side and scattering
crockery and glassware?people rushed
out of houses in whatever clothes they
happened to be. One man ran into the
street with his pantaloons in his hands.
Main street was crowded in an instant,
and people were afraid to return to bed
until far in the morning. When a shock
would come the crowd would yell aud run
for the middle of the street.
"The vibrations were from South to
North. The shocks were generally pre?
ceded by distinct rumbling noises."
? President Harrison is peevish and
fretful, and if all the stories told here
are true he has said some tart things to
the politicians who have been thronging
the White House. He isn't a man of ro?
bust health like Mr. Cleveland. The
present Executive is thin and looks
careworn. Many people do not think
he can stand the strain to the end of his
term if he is not more careful of his
health. Cleveland is fat and ponderous,
but he is a stolid, stubborn man that
neither hard work nor strife can effect.
Ho was able to stand the strain that was
put upon him, and left the White House
in just as good if noc better health than
when he entered it.? Washington Letter.
? The very latest of all business com?
binations is a tomato trust, which is
about to be formed by the packers of
Bridgeton, N. J. This little city puts
up in tin cans about one-third of the en?
tire torn? to crop of New Jersey every
season, and the packers have come to
the conclusion that they can secure bet?
ter results from their work by combin?
ing. An association will accordingly be
formed within a week or two, the in?
itiatory steps having already been taken.
The association will regulate the price
for raw material, and also the price to
be paid for canned tomatoes by the
people.
? More than 1000 empty patent med?
icine bottles were found in the house of
a rich bachelor who died at Knoxville,
Penn., lately.
