And Solomon saith, ''He that uttifroth slander is a fool1, and some body els? saitlii Avi tiL'i not thyself, hut wait on thc Loni." lt takes all of t!..s -'ii pt ure to quiet a man nowa .lays uni to keep him calm and serene. I ku iw that I am old enough t'> he a phil -oj.her. and therefor? should not let had men disturb my tranquility, but .t fatigues my indignation tu read som'.' pf these northern republican new-papers. I read an editorial yes terday which said that every Senator j who voted against thc treaty was lit | for the hell where Benedict Arnold j and .letFersoii Davis had gone. Ac cording to Solomon that mau is a fool, and ?t doesn't become me to iret toad j with a fool. My great concern is that he will make fools of thc (.011,000 .laily readers that his paper boasts of, for ;t is a fact that most people bank on their favorite paper next to then church or religious convictions. The tendency is to make the ODU.ono be lieve that Mr. Davis was a traitor, and that i- equivalent to saying that I and all thc Confederate veterans are trait ors, and that makes nie and my wife ttl fret because of evil doers, which I'avid says we must not do. Wc are j trying just now to pose as meek and i humble patriarchs like Moses and to ; cherish no resentments, but it is hard j to do unless we quit reading north- ; ern literature. Another editorial, in ' thc same paper says that Dewey says j that "in times of war the democrats ; are traitors, and in times of peace they arc fools." What kind of a man | is that who edits that paper- that McKinley organ? I tell you, ray brethren, there is no UM? in crying peace, when there is no peace, lt is like acampmccting revival where hun dreds are converted for a few days and then lapse and relapse into their same old ways. Handshaking and promises don't signify ger.uine conversion. A few years ago Henry Grady electrified thc nation, and, as .lohn Temple Hraves said, "loved it, into peace." Those words are upon his monument, but where is the peace ? It didn't last six months. He was hardly buried before thc northern press begun on us again about thc nigger, and they kept it up diligently until McKinley came down hero and said kind words, and we gave him a lovefeast and thc nation was harmon ized and the wisc men said, "Behold, how sweet and pleasant it is for breth ren to dwell together in unity." And now all of a sudden thc great republi can organ shakes its gory locks and says, "Jefferson Davis was a traitor, and he is in hell." How is that for harmony. But thc scriptures say "wait ou thc Lord" and "I have seen the wicked Hourish like a green hay tree." and so 1 reckon we will have to wait. I remember when Horace H rccly's paper was jost as malignant, and yet thc old man went security on Jefferson Havis's bond and got him out of thc ?filthy dungeon where General Miles had fcttcrad him, and Beast Butler, who stole our spoons, signed the bond with him. So there is no telling what will happen if we will only wait. I like the late movement of thc good people of Fitzgerald, lt looks more like harmony than anything I have seen since tho civil war. The men who wore the blue and the gray and j their sons have formed a military company and asked for incorporation and an outfit for thc defense of our Stato and to keep peace at home and proserve law and order. That is real and lasting fraternity. The fact is, that no northern meu have ever cast their fortunes down south and domi ciled with our people but what they fell in love with them, and the longer they stayed the better they liked us. I think I will visit Fitzgerald and pay my respects to that Yankee colony, and tip my hat to that military com pany. We give a cordial welcome to all northern people who come to stay, for they are the best people they have got up there, and arc thinning out their good society mighty fast. Fools and fanatics don't dare to come and that fellow who edits that paper wouldn't cross the line for a million dollars, unless he came in disguise. We wouldn't hurt him, for Solomon says he is a fool, but our small boys might annoy him and make his stay unpleasant. I rejoice to see that North Carolina is to have a property and an educa tional qualification for every voter white and black. When Georgia fol lows suit to old Rip Yan Winkle and Louisiana and South Carolina we can elect a respectable legislature and have a dog law passed and give to widows the right of suffrage on taxa tion and to all women thc same rights concerning the education of our chil dren. What a monstrous injustice it is to choose women for our teachers, but exclude them from our school boards or from any choice in the S Ll HT BR. 1 > 111 \V;? it . rt i iii?- I "or< I.

T. ranch, in the extreme northwest corner of thc panhandle of Texas, the largest ranch in the world, has au area of f>,000 square miles, ac cording to the Ladies' Nome Journal Its herds of cattle aggregate 120,000 head, besides, 1,500 horses, and thc calf crop branded in 1S!I7 exceeded .'.1,000. Surprising as it may seem, all the work ou the ranch is done by Iii."? men, one man to every 21,000 acres. It seems natural that the largest ranch in the world should be found in the largest State in the I'nion-Texas. Imleed, this ranch is so extensive that some States could not contain it. Connecticut, for example, could not hold it by several thousand acres. The two States ol' Khodc Island and Dela ware combined could not contain this immense ranch which consists of !?, 000,000 acres, or about ?,000 s?|uare miles. About a duzen years ago, when Texas needed a new State capitol, the legislature adopted a novel plan to get it. A promise was held forth that a vast tract of unappropriated land would be given in exchange for a suit able granite building at Austin. Among those tempted by this offer were ex Senator Charles H. Karwcll and his brother .lohn, who ultimately formed a syndicate in Chicago and took upon themselves the responsibility of er.'ct . ?V?o i>rnno?1'?d *?../ruffd TMinir mir!. ill?, |UU|IU-.'.-- j of the agreement appears to have been carried out to the satisfaction of the State, and in due time they came into the possession of thc immense domain known as the X.

The Colonel of the cavalry halted his ?nen to watch the volunteers, and, getting into conversation with the Colonel of the latter, he criticised their drill unfavorably, especially their want of steadiness. The volunteer Colonel was a fierce fellow, and he cried hotly: "My men are as steady as any regi ment of regulars." "I do not thiuk so." retorted the cavalryman, "and if you'll draw up your men in order to receive cavalry I'll prove it." The challenge was accepted, and the cavalrymen charged dowu upon the citizen soldiers, who awaited them in the usual way. Now. regular cavalry can charge to within a few feet, or even inches, of infantry at full gallop and then, at the word of command, pull up short. The volunteers, however, lost their nerve when they saw thc huge horses thundering down upon them and showing no sign of stopping when a few yards off. They fled, all but one man, who remained on his knee, with bayonet leveled. His Colonel, enraged at the others' flight, approached the hero, and, tap ping him on the back, cried : "You're the only brave man in the regiment. You scorned to run." "Yes, sir," gasped thc hero, "I had my foot stuck in a hole, or 1 shouldn't have waited."-Lomltm Sparc Mo ment?. - If you would win friends you must bc friendly. l'ut' litt .1 tttlt'i'stiH I t trlli i ?en? er, TRIBUTE TO A NOtyLE MAN. .lan?os W. Poon*. .lames NV. I'??oro is dead. These tidings bring genuine sorrow tn many hearts, for none knew this noble-hearted christian gentleman hut t<> love him. At H o'clock Tuesday evening, Keb. '1. I SW, after nearly two month- of intense suffering, thc powerful con stitution yielded to disease, and the -Teat heart was -till, and his spirit was with (?od. In attempting to write a brief sketch of Mr. I'core's life I am keenly sensible of the fact that I shall fall far short of giving to the reader anything like a just conception of the high and noble character of this Godly mau. One had to know him to appreciate his genuine worth, and no one came in contact with him who was not impressed with tho win nini; personality of the man. Mr. I'oore was born near Helton, j S. C., Keb. HI, 1844, and lived upon the farm until thirteen years o'd, when, on account of his bright mind and energy, ho was employed by thc timi of Stringer, Cox ?X: McGee as a clerk, his pay to be board and clothes. Ile remained with this linn until the opening of the war. when he volun teered as a ??rivate in Co. G, 2ndS. C. Hides. Ile was soon made a non commissioned officer, and served as such in the battles of Mechanicsville, (?aines' Mill, Frazier's Farm, Malvern Hill and Second Manassas. In this last battle he was wounded, and after spending two months in a hospital was discharged on account of sick ness, the result of exposure and his wound. After remaining at home for a few months he recuperated and re enlisted in Co. K, Sixth S. C. Cavalry as a private, and with which he re mained until the close of hostilities. Throughout the entire war he was a conscientious and faithful soldier, and had thc respect of his superior offi cers and his associates. At his death he held the offices of Adjutant of Camp Anderson, at Helton, Adjutant of the Confederate Veteran Regiment of Anderson County, and Commissary General of the Second Division of Confederate Veterans with the rank of Lt.-Colonel. After thc war Mr. I'oore was again engaged in merchandising and farming at his native home, Helton, S. C., and was successively a member of the fol lowing firms: Cox ?& l'ocre, A. J. Stringer & Co., (187H-79,) I'oore & Co., ('71? 81,) Stringer & I'oore, ('81 '1>4.) From 1894 to 181)8 Mr. I'oore did a small mercantile business, but devoted most of his time to his mill ing machinery and his farms. In 181*8 his health began to fail him, and he, thinking a less sedentary life would be beneficial to him, gave up his mercan tile interest altogether. In August, 18?8, Mr. I'oore, togeth er with his young wife, whom he had married Feb. 23, of the same year, joined the Helton Baptist Church. It was during a great revival conducted by Hov. T". K. Walters, assisted by Hov. H. F. Mauldin. This was a great meeting. Some of the best Christian men and women of Belton Church, and Churches of the sur rounding country, dato their conver sion from this meeting. None of | them have lived more consistent chris tian lives than Mr. I'oore and his wife. As he had made a faithful sol dier for his country, so he did for his Master. From the day of his conver sion to the day of bis death there was no christian duty too irksome for him to perform cheerfully. He was one of the kind that woiked well and will ingly in any place assigned him. He held many important places of trust in his denomination, having been re peatedly chosen Moderator of the Union Meetings, and has for many years been President of the Anderson County Sunday School Institute, and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Saluda Association. He was Superintendent of his Sunday School for more than twenty years. It was in the Sunday School he did his high est and best christian work. No other matter, save the interest of his own family, concerned himself so much as his Sunday School. During his last illness he often asked after its welfare, and seemed so happy when told it was well attended, and claiming thc inter est of those connected with it. The Sunday School seemed to lay heavy on his head and heart, for he was never heard to make a public prayer that he did not invoke God's blessing to rest upon it. He was a typical Superin tendent: his genial and kindly dispo sition made bim exceedingly popular with thc children. Indeed, it seems that Mr. Poore's mission on earth was to dispense sunshine and happiness wherever he went. He was Clerk of his Church for twenty-eight years. In ?ll these places of honor and trust he rendered singularly efficient and effective service. He was prompt and acourate in everything he did. His church records are models of accuracy and neatness, and his Sunday School has long been regarded as one of the best-if not the best-in the Saluda Association. Mr. I'oore was generous to a fault ; he couldn't nor didn't say ''no" to those who sought his aid. He was full of energy, and had a keen insight into business ai?airs, and has been un entire success from a financial stand point : but had he had the greed of some men. and not allowed himself t?i be imposed upon, there's no telling what a fortune he might have accu mulated. Mr. I'oore was married Lo Miss Corrie I?. Cox Keb. '?'A, IHUH. Six j children three boys and three girls - j were born to them, of these one died j in infancy. The children are as fol I lows Mrs. T. V. William-, of Lan caster, S. C. : Mrs. W. C. Bowen. Helton, S. C. ; Dr. J. K. I'oore, Sui goon Sceond S. ('. Regiment, now in Cuba : H. M. I'oore, of I'elzcr, and Miss Mamie, the youngest, with heir mother. All the children, save Dr. I'oore, were present when their father died, and he has since reached home. Mr. I'oore's home was a home in deed for his children : conveniences, comforts and luxuries were not spared to make home pleasant. They will miss him sorely, but their inheritance is a great one, indeed. He made for himself a "good name." A great concourse of sorrowing peo-. I pie attended the funeral exercises on Thursday. His Sunday School, led by the teachers, followed the body from the Church to thc cemetery. His pastor, Kev. W. T. Tate, said : 'The sun will shine brightly upon his grave, the grass will grow fresh above it, and the little birds will sing sweetly around it. but the memory of so good a mau will be brighter than the sunshine, fresher than thc grass, and sweeter than the songs of the little birds." Anderson County has lost one of her best citizens, the cause of Christ a bold and fearless defender. W. B. W. tte! lon, S. C., Feh. 27, J SM. A Complete Success. Mr. T. IL McClain reports that his corn harvesting experiment of last fall was a complete success. The reporter asked him about the matter a few days ago, ind that was his very encourag ing report. It will be remembered that instead of harvesting his big corn crop in the usual way, Mr. McClain waited until about two weeks after the fodder was ready to pull, when he went through the field with a harvesting machine, cut thc stalks down close to the ground and shocked them up, to remain until later in the fall, when he ran the stalks through a shredder. The shredder husked thc corn and cut stalks, fod der blades and husks into small pieces ranging from an inch or so in length down to the fineness of wheat bran. This stuff, which is called stover, was salted down, packed in bales and stowed away in the barn. Some 20 tons were lost as the result of a long wet spell ; but fully 100 tons or more was safely housed. The reporter asked Mr. McClain as to the value of the stover, compared with peavine hay. He .cplied : "Well, of course you know that it contains a considerable sprinkle of grain. I do not consider it as good as peaviuo hay by about 15 per cent. The stock, however, are all fond of it. They eat it with as much relish as you could desire, i am satisfied that it is worth as much per ton as the beat tim othy hay, and 1 am not certain but what it is worth more. I think it is worth more. I think it is more val uable." "Then you are thoroughly satisfied with your experiment." "I am so well satisfiet. that I shall never again a*tempt the plan of pull ing corn and fodder separately. Count ing the saving in the expense of har vesting and the saving on account of utilizing stalks and other material that would have otherwise been wasted, I think I get at least 25 per cent, more value out of my last crop than I would have gotten under the old method." "How about the condition of the corn as saved by this process?" "The only damage there was arose from the falling down of a few ears to the ground. I mean, of course, on ac count of this method. There was more rotten corn than usual last year, you know; but it was not attributable to curing in shocks. The proportion that was damaged by reason of the curing process, did not amount to more than 1 per cent, of total damage sus tained by the crop. In fact I doubt if there was any more damage than there would have been had I followed the old method. But you may say that I am forever done with the old method "-Yorkville Enquirer. - During the Christian era 4,000, 000,000 human beings have perished in war. Christianity is not responsi I ble for the violent taking off of this number, whieh approaches four times the total present population of the earth. A large proportion of the slaughtered were heathen, Mohamme dans, Fireworshipers, Cannibals and Polygamists. - "What do thoy do when they install a minister?" asked a small boy. "Do they put him in a stall and feed him?" "Not a bit!" said his father. "They harness him to a church and expect him to draw it alone." rocket Flash Lights. The man who has trouble with his key-hole is indebted to the inventor of an electric pocket lamp, which was patented early in January and is now on the market. A well-known retail house on North Broadway, always on the alert for novelties, has put in the lirst supply in St. Louis. A light, from 'Al to f>' volts, can bc Hashed at any object by a gentle pres sure on a button. From 0,000 to 8,000 flashes, each flash lasting from one to two seconds, arc stored in the battery, which can he replaced at the nominal c?t of from 2~> to ?0 cents. Thc lamps are easily portable, being of tube shape, and very light. Carry ing it by the ring, with which the contact is produced, it looks like a pretty music roll, such as singers are wont to use to roll their sheet music in. The small sized lamp, which is about inches long and measures 2} inches in diameter, easily slips into a man's overcoat pocket. This lamp is adapted for house use, and affords quite a brilliant illumination of a dark space. Its light is far stronger than that of the ordinary burglar's lamp, aud being suddenly flashed into the face of an intruder, should have a wholesome effect on him. For identi fication of all sorts of marauders in the hands of a policeman this new contri vance will prove valuable. Manager Sparks, who thought well euough of thc electric pocket lamp to add it to his stock, flashed it iuto the face of a policeman on the Levee a few even ings ago. The guardian of the peace was the most startled man he ever saw, and heartily in favor of it, when its use and operation were explained to him. In the dark-room of the photog rapher the lamps will prove themselves very valuable. The largest-sized lamps are 12 inch es long and 4 inches in circumference, and are especially made for finding leaks in places where the handling of a match or ordinary lamp would lead to explosions. Oil wells, gasoline tanks and manholes come under that head. Minc inspectors would find them handy in their business. The large lamp yields a continuous illumination of eight hours, the small one proportionately less. While these lamps are not intended for continued lighting purposes, they can be used in that way, where other means of il lumination fail. Tho inventor of the pocket flash - lamp is a real benefactor of mankind, for he has only shown the beginning of a new use that may be made of the storage battery in the service of the individual.-?'t. Louis Rejiuhlic. Honor to the Palmetto. Ky a vote of *?0 to JU the South Caro lina house of delcgntes has passed a bill to pre ven t the use by the State dis pensary of the palmetto tree on bottles and labels, except, the stock on band. One of the advocates of the bill said be did it. cut ot' respect to the Confederate and Mexican soldiers. Another dele gate said he was moved to indignation when he saw a soldier lying in the gut ter drunk, with a bottle sticking out of his pocket, upon which the palmetto tree was the most prominent object to be seen. For this reason, he said, the palmetto tree should be debarred from use on the dispensary bottles, and the vote showed that a majority of the del egates were of the same opinion. Hal ti mo re ?Sun, -o ? -- - In one of the last letters writen by P. T. Barnum, just discovered, he thus advised young men : "Keep your brains free from the fumes of alcohol, your blood free from its taint. Avoid tobacco as the poison it really is. Keep your body free, physically and morally. Give your body the care you would give to a machine of which you require much good work."_ Men as Nurse?. There isn't one man tn fifty thousand who is a good nurse. Thc average man feels as much out of place in a sick-room as a bull must in a china-store. His heart may be ever so fu il of sympathy, but his feet are heavy and his fingers clumsy. In most cases when a woman's general health breaks down the original cause is weakness or disease of the distinctly femi nine organism. The only permanent cure lies in the correction of all these disorders. Husbands should know that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the only medicine that invariably cures all ailments of this nature without "local treatment" and "examinations."
