Mr. W. H. Ingram has tendered his
resignation as Master in Equity for
the County of Sumter and it has been
accepted by Gov. Mcsweeney. An
office holder resigning is something re
markable in South Carolina.
Col. Henry B. Plant, President of the
Southern Express Company and of the
Plant system of Railroads, died sud
denly in New York last Friday night.
He was a great friend to the South, and
took special interest in the affairs of
South Caiolina, Georgia and Florida.

biographical sketches of Col. Hender

votes pledged to elect him speaker of
the next House > of Representatives.
The foxy Thos. B. Reed has not sent in
his resignation as yet. and it maybe
that the Repubb'cans aie counting their
chickens before tiley are hatched.
With this issue THE INTELLIGENCER
;? begins its thirty-fifth volume, and it is
: ; V; on a firmer foundation than ever before
in> its history. ? It can still boast of
y-I shaving the largest circulation of any
County paper in South Carolina, and its
hst of subscribers, ismcreasing every
month. In the futnre, as in the past,
we will use our feeble pen for the ad
vancement - and welfare of Anderson
County and her people.
It is reported that a New York and
Virginia syndicate has started a big
colonization scheme for Guda with a
capital of $12,000,000. The site selected
is at Aahia Honda, fifty miles west of
Havana, and ground has been laid out
for sugar estates, tobacco plantations
and truck farms. Mechanics for che
new settlement will be brought from
New York, but the laborers will come
mostly from Virginia and the South.
When President McKinley recently
issued his now famous anti-civil ser
vice reform order, Civil Service Com
missioner Proctor called it a "backward,
step," as many other persons and news
papers have done. For this "criticism
of his superior" it is said Commissioner
Proctor: is to lose his head. Whether
he will be summarily removed or his
resignation asked for is not known as
yet, though it seems to be the purpose
of the administration to get rid of him.
If reports are to be believed, nothing
will be done at The Hague towards
establishing an international court of
arbitration. It seems that the German
Emperor will' hear to nothing of the
sort and the United States commis
sioners ' have been instructed so to
modify their original proposal as to
destroy its binding force. In fnture,
. as in the past, when nations are at
outs, it is to be left to their own sweet
wills as to whether they will settle
their differences by arbitration or by
the sword. And all this not because
the nations generally want war and
gloat in bloodshed, but because one
arbitrar- man, who in the last years of
the nineteenth century still boasts of
his-divine .light to rule, wants it thus.
The Columbia Jiecord truly remarks:
"If Governor Mcsweeney and Secretary
of State Cooper secure completion of
the State House, they will do South
Carolina a real service and deserve thc
special thanks of Columbians. Tho
present unsightly condition of that
building is a bad advertisement for the
State and a handicap to Columbia. It
gives visitors An unfavorable impres
sion of our resources and discredits our
progressiveness." Every true South
Carolinian would rejoice to see the
grand old building completed in ac
cordance with the original plan, the
work on which was stopped years ago.
Tho money spent in the work would be
a good investment, and a small tax for
a few years would soon complete it.
There is a law on the statute books
of South Carolina which is very much
a dead letter. This law was approved
by the Governor on the Sdday of March
1699. It is entitled: "An Act to Pre
vent Drunkenness and Shooting Upon
the Highway." The provisions of the
law are very plain, simple and easily
understood: "That any person who
shall indulge in boisterous conduct
?while under the influence of intoxica
ting liquors or feigning to bc under the
influence of such liquors, or without
just cause or excuse shall discharge
any firearms while upon or within fifty
yards o? any public road, except upon
his own premises, shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor, and upon conviction
thereof shall pay a fine of not more
than one hundred dollars, or be im
prisoned for not moro than thirty days.
Women are rapidly invading the do
main of men in college work in Amer
ica. The large number of women stu
dents enrolled in the graduate dc, art
ment of Yale at the session just closed
Cills attention to a feature of academic
life which is assuming large propor
tions every year, lt was in 1892 that
the educational world was somewhat
startled by the information that the
corporation ol* Yale had decided to
open its graduate department of bach
elors of art without distinction of sei,
and there were many forewarnings
concerning thc failure of such an icon
oclastic departure. During thc seven
years that thc experiment has been
nuder way thc women .students have
had to struggle against; innumerable
difficulties; but it is believed that at.
ieastthey have established their posi
tion upon a permanent footing. I tis
stated !batthere ia hardly any member
of tho faculty who does not have ii
good word to ea; in their laver, and
even ti?o undergr d atesare beginning
tc regard their presence upon the
campus with indifference.
A Macadam Road at Clemson.
CLEMSON, June 20.-Since the Col
lege closed last Wednesday and nearly
all the cadets have left the campus
presents a dull appearance, but this
does not indicate that everything in
the way of work has stopped. As a
matter of fact the faculty will have a
hard summer's work ahead and will not
get as much rest and vacation as de
served. Prof. Brodie is already en
gaged with office work preparatory to
starting the macadam road that is to
he built under his direction as engineer,
and which is intended to be one of the
best that can be made. It will be about
one mile long, and will be an object
lesson when completed in the science
of road making.
When;Secretar}* James Wilson was
here several weeks ago he was shown
the route of this road ; he at once be
came interested in the project, and
after returning to Washington sent a
Government expert, Mr. Eldridge, here
to look into the matter. Mr. Eldridge
manifested much interest, considering
this a fine opportunity of experiment
ing in a section of the South where
macadam roads are almost unknown,
and the result of it all is that the Gov
ernment is going to send all the road
making machinery needed, freo of cost,
to do the work.,
Work will be pushed during summer.
Chemist F. S. Shiver will soon have
ready a bulletin on the chemical study
of sea island cotton. Those wishing a
copy will be furnished on application.
President Hartzog'and Prof. Connor
will attend the "Association of Ameri
can Colleges and Experiment Stations,"
that convenes at San Francisco July 4.
Charleston people should bestir them
selves to have the next meeting go to
Charleston.
Arrangements will be completed by
next opening of College for the intro
duction of nature study in all the sub
fresh-man classes. This will be a new
method of teaching elementary sciences
by studying nature from objects rather
than from books only.
Applications for next year arc al
ready coming, in and the prospect for a
large attendance is good. It is a note
worthy fact, and one particularly
pleasing to President Hartzog., that out
of some 200 boys, comprising thejunior,
sophomore and freshman classes, only
four will not return.
The examinations recently concluded
were very satisfactory on the whole,
and u. matter of credit to the student
body and of gratification to th e faculty.
Prof. Clinkscales' withdrawal from
Clemson to accept the chair of mathe
matics at W?ftbrd causes much regret
here, where he has many friends.
Not only is he liked in the class room,
but he has always taken part in what
ever tended to promote the moral ad
vancement of the boys, and his grace
ful and affable manners to all attracted
them to him; He is an alumnus of
Wofford and takes commendable pride
and pleasure in being called there,
?without solicitation, and will doubtless
serve that College as faitlifully as lie
has Clemson.-News and Courier.
The Man Who Drinks.
The business world recognizes that
no man who drinks isas good as he
would be if he never drank. Time was
when in certain lines of business it was
considered necessary to drink. Quite
the contrary is the case now. Even
saloon men prefer barkeepers who do
not drink the liquids they sell. All the
fairy tales about the great things poo
dle do when under the influence of i
liquor have been exploded. The orator
who must be intoxicated in order to
make a speech is no longer here and he
has never been here. The lawyer who
cannot plead a case or cite au authority
without spending the night before in a
bar room has gone to visit the pale
glimpses of the moon and he has always
been gone. The writer who produces
a great poem ora great essay while
maudlin removed from this planet be
fore the command "Let there bc light"
was given. The bookkeeper, clerk,
mechanic, salesman, artisan, young or
old, is not at his best while he is under
the influence of liquor and he is not as
valuable to himself, his employer or
society. In the race of life the tempe
rate man has the best of it; title drink
ing man is handicapped. Great things
have been done while the brain was
excited by stimulants, but greater
things would have been done had there
been no artificial stimulation. The
sober man is always an improvement
on the drunken mau.-Memphis Com
mercial-Appeal.
Will Bc Bryan Again.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 21.-A
distinguished Southern gold democrat
Vi ho recently, for the first time, met
William J. Bryp.u, says he is a man of
attractive personality, and, although
misguided, of evident sincerity. He
says Mr. Bryan will unquestionably be
enominated in 1900, and on the same
platform as iu 189G, although there
will most probably be additions to meet
thc later issues.
Tho talk of Mr. Gorman or of any one
else than Mr. Bryan, this gentleman
says, is simply childish. Even if, as
alleged, and of this there is much
doubt, Tammany has any serious pur
poses regarding Mr. Gorman, it will
not be in any position to put them into
execution. The Bryan delegates will
overwhelmingly dominate the national
convention and will carry him through
witJi an irresistible rush.
In any event, says this gold demo
crat from tho South, Mr. Gorman, with
his record, would be the weakest man
to put np nnd would be beaten worse
than Greeley in 1872. In his opinion
the gold democrats will make no nom
ination in (OOO. This will make ita
square 1'ght between McKinley and
Bryan, because, of course, the other
third tickets of the usual character aro
altogether insignificant and inconse
quential side shou >\

Gen. Wheeler lo Philippines.
rni' .M.o, .lune 21.-A special Lo the
Times-Herald from Pctoskcy, Mich.,
says Secretary of War Alger gave indi
rect confirmation to-day to thc report,
that Gen. Joseph Wheeler is to be as
signed to duty in the Philippines.
When questioned about it as he and
Gen. Wheeler were about to leave for
the Grand Army camp he promptly re
plied: "There is nothing to say, at
least not until 1 issue the order."
"I am still in the service," said Gen.
Wheeler when questioned, "and am
subject to orders. I am not now under
orders. How soon 1 will bc is for Scc
I retary Alger to decide."
He talked and looked, though, like a
man who is not only ready, but even
expecting an important assignment.
Attended 0,000 Funerals.
HEADING, June 10- Sophia Christian,
known as "Funeral Sophia," was taken
to the alms house to-day by Chief of
Police Miller. Sophia has a record that
is probably unequalled. By actual
record she has attended over 0,000
funerals, and for years past she has
made an effort to miss as few as pos
sible. She was a close reader of the
death columns of thc local papers and
was kept busy when half a. dozen in
terments took place herc in a single
day.
When denied admission to a house
where there was a funeral she fre
quently scaled a back fence in order to
be present. On many occasions she
walked as much as eight or ten miles.
for the purpose of being present at a
funeral. Sophia is 00 years of age.
Philadelphia Times.
A Tribute.
Death entering the happy home of
Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Banister and bear
ing away in its cruel embrace the
spirit ot little Wilton, aged three
years, caused a deep gloom of sorrow
to settle down around that home, and
although it looked so dark to the be
reaved ones they could see herc and
there bright rays of comfort beaming
through the darkness-descending
from Him who is ever able and willing
to comfort us in our sorrows. They
knew that the little sufferer was at
rest, freed from all the pain and sorrow
of this world. We know that it was
hard for them to part with Mm, for
having been delicate from infancy, the
ties ot love and affection were drawn
closely around him, and now their sad
hearts will ache when they think that
they will no more hear the sweet child
ish prattle and the patter of those little
feet. They will sadly miss the many
little witty sayings, for truly he was
very bright. But the mothers sorrow
will be greater, and she will long ^o
once more clasp the little form to her
loving heart .and imprint kisses of love
and affection upon the little face which
the icy hand of death has forever hid
den from her sight. 'Tis a precious
bud which the Father placed here on
earth for only a short while and now
has transplanted it to bloom in Heaven
beside the crystal river, lt is such a
sweet and comforting thought to think
of him now being one more little angel
in the circle 7round the throne of God
singing praises to His holy name. And
now we hope that the bereaved ones
may live such lives here on earth as to
be gathered "together 'round the throne
-an imbroken family. PEARL.

- The report of the Nicaragua
Canal commission, which has just been
made public by the State department
estimates the cost of the canal at$llS,
113,790. The channel will have an
average depth of 30 feet, which is
more than the depth necessary for the.
passage of our largest battleships.

IT MUST BE DID
There is no way out of it.
It must be did !
It must be did !
How often have I lain on my pillow a sleepless night trying to devise
means to avoid it. and yet every time the cock crew for day the same stubborn
facts stared me in the face. It must be did. Yes, it must be did. And we
have gone and done it. "The die bas been cast-the Kubicou has been cross
ed." "Yes, we have done the deed. We could not turn back now if we would,
and would not if we could. It is stipulated in the contract what shall and
what shall not be. It is history that great and good deeds are repeated from
time to time throughout the ages. So let it be with us. Let us go on reach
ing out our hands and doing the deeds of the past over and over again. Let
the watchword be "Advance" till time shall call a halt and our labors shall
be no more.
Once upon a time in the natural course of events, just one decade and
seven moons since, on the Ides of March, a stranger came to town-unnoticed
by men, barked at by dogs. He sniffled the mountain breeze, patted the few
lonesome silver dollars in his left-hand britches pocket and proceeded to lay a
nest egg in a little 21x57-foot storeroom on South Main street. The first day's
business showed stock ou hand $85.00, cash sales $15.00. Week after week
rolled by and every day bore its fruit until on Oct. 25, 18S9, out of a stock of
$700.00, cash sales went up to $300.00. Couldn't get goods as fast as could sell
'em. Two years later had to have larger quarters-moved up street one door
an? got larger store and two floors. In 1895 had to move again. This time up
on the Square. Larger house and three floors. In 1898 forced to rent large
brick warehouse to get more room. And now, in the summer of our discon
tent, in the hot summer of eighteen hundred and starve to death, we are
crowded again and must have more room-room to turn around in, room to
handle our stuff, room for the people that come to see us. Hence we have se
cured larger quarters to accommodate our business. Move, MOVE, MOVE !
And we arc going to move again. To make the job lighter wc will commence
reducing stock at once. If you want some of the biggest Bargains you ever
saw, come early and get them. But if you want to enjoy life just hang around
and see competition weep. We want to move just as few things as possible
and offer you an opportunity to help u.s reduce stock and at the same time
maintain the strength of your purse.

strength of such assertions, but ask those who have bought and used them if they
are the equal of the DANIEL PRATT GIN. But still the years roll on, the Daniel
