General Wheeler has been ordered to the Philippines. He was anxious to . go there, and his friends are more than pleased that his wish has been grati fied._ A strong effort is being made to re . organize the Alliance in South Caro lina. In tho future it is proposed to keep out all politicians. It is a great pity that thia was not done years ago. It is said i;hat of the $20,000,000 abe has receiveci as a ires gift from the United State s, Spain will spend at least $10,000,000 ir constructing a new navy. If that is her intention, she might better have left the money in this country and ordered American ships instead. The latest .venture in journalism in South Carolina is the Clinton News, which, made its appearance last week. S. Frank PaiTott is the editor, and it is published by the Clinton Publishing Co. We. extend the Nervs the right hand of fellowship and wish itmueh success. _ St: Louis started in to raise $5,000,000 for a world's fair and the task appeared to be a very difficult one. it was a large amount of money, but the sub scription was promptly forthcoming and St. Louis is now preparing to sur pass in 1903 ali previous world's faire in Mstory. _ Seventy-four -eases of yellow fever i are reported in the Foldiers' hospital at Santiago. AU attempts of the doctors to prevent its spread seem unavailing. This is an ah inning state of affairs, for .-the ?langer of bringing thc disease to die United States is of course many . times greater" than it -was in the past. Some of the Republican newspapers .are beginning to realize that their party will find the administration's foreign policy a heavy load to carry next year. They are begging the president to call ? halt in his imperialism, .and some of . them predict that if he does not do so lie will be. rebuked by the people at the .first Opportunity. The Spart anburg Spartan truly re marks: Because a life-long Democrat is.not willing; to subscribe to the plat form of 1890 now and feels assured that the silver question has been settled for the present and advises that the old silver plank be split into kindling wood, there is no reason for calling bini a traitor. The platform for 1900 is to be made. That is one that Demo crats are expected to support It is foolish to de nounce men wno believe that live issues and not dead ones should engage the public attention next year. ._ _ The press dispatches of the past ten .days have been telling alarming stories of t-iie heavy rains and the swollen rivers in portions of Texas. Several .towns have been submerged, and it is estimated ttat fully SOO people have been drowned, and corn and cotton .crops and bridges to the value of mil lions of dollarsiave been washed away. There are th ousands of people at the point of starvation, and Gov. Sayres has issued a proclamation asking dona tions for their relief. The area affect .edis about as large us the State of South Carolina. A society in New York has made an .appeal which contains au appalling de scription of destitution in Cuba. This society has undertaken the raising of a Cuban orphan fund. In the call for .contributions the statement is made that 50,000 children have lost one or both parents in the recent war. Men tion is made of one town in which scarce an adult is left alive and where the younger children are being sup ported by the older ones by such work :i8 they are a ble to get, which is usual ly very little. The sum needed to re Jieve these Sf',000 parentless children is $1,000,000. - .m . tm Ex-Gov. John Peter Richardson died very unexpectedly of heart disease in Columbia last Wednesday night. He had been in failing health for several years, and had left his plantation in Clarendon County to be near his phy sician in Columbia. Ile was elected Governor in 1886 and served two terms, ile belonged to a family that has fur nished five Governors to South Caro lina, his father ?and great-grandfather being among the number. During thc war he served his State gallantly on the staff of (Jen. James Canty in thc army of the West as division adjutant. He was a man of recognized ability and exalted character, pure in principle and motive and true in every relation of hf e. in public life he was faithful and fearless, true to his convictions even to the sacrifice of his personal in terests. As a private citizen he was generous and kindhearted and chari table, a genial companion and a faith ful friend. Above all he was a mani} man, a golden-hearted gentleman. iftThe industrial outlook in the South was never before so fine. Almost every day we hear ol* some new cotton mill in the cotton-producing States. On August 1,1890, there were in the South 230,000 spindles; last August there were 1,945,000 spindles, a gain of 1,725, 000 spindles in eight years, over 100 per cent. More than fifty cotton mills are now under construction in tho South. They will represent an invest ment- of $11,000,000 and an addition of 700,000 spindles. Forty Southern cot ton mills arc enlarging their capacity and will add 400,000 new spindles to th?' number already in operation in the South. South Carolina leads in this work of improvement with ;?75,000 new spindles, and North Carolina conies second with 236,000. Most of the new Southern mills will make finer lines of goods than the average mill now ope rating in the South. Hosiery and knit ting mills are increasing in "number in | this section rapidly, and a silk mill i will soon be established in North Car- ' olina. State Missionary Conference of the .V. E. Church, South. The annual meeting of the "Metho dist Woman's Foreign Missionary So ciety of South Carolina" convened in McCall, S. C., June 28, 1899, and closed July 2, 1899. McCall is a thriving manufacturing town, situated in the eastern, part of Marlboro County, about ten miles to the east of Bennettsville. It ie ? small town, but notwithstanding there were nearly one hundred dele gates, including officers and quite a number of visitors from all parts of the State, McCall could have entertained handsomely as many more. The doore .of -every home were thrown open, all eager to accommodate-even more .delegate's than were assigned them. Owing to the untiring efforts of Mr. T. B. Gibson, arrangements were made withrthe officials of the Atlantic Coast Line to run a special train from Ben nettsville, otherwise the delegation would have been forced to spend the night (both coming and going) in Ben nettsville. Mrs. M. D. Wightman, of Charleston* presided in herusual grace ful and dignified manner. The busi ness meetings were held from 9.30 a. m. to 4 p. m., with recess at 12.30 for dinner, which was served on the Church grounds. The State is divided into ten dis tricts, ?ach district ?having a corres ponding secretary, and the work is entirely devoted to Foreign Missions. Marion District ranks first, thus win ning the .proud place as "Banner Dis trict." Having raised more than $1200 this year a beautiful banner was pre jsented to Marion District by Mr. Cov ington, of McCall. Mrs. M. Goodgion, Secretary of Greenville .District, was unable to attend the meeting, owing to illness in her family. The Rev. R. E. Stackhouse preached the annual missionary sermon, which was full of encouragement to the So ciety and pleasing to all his hearers. Greenville was selected as the place for the next meeting, and the follow ing officers were elected: Mrs. M. D. Wightman, President ; Mrs. E. S. Her bert, 1st Vice President ; Mrs. W. L. Waite, 2nd Vice President ; Mrs. J. W. Humbert, Corresponding Secretary; Miss I. D. Martin, Recording Secre tary ; Mrs. J. W. Green, Treasurer. On Saturday afternoon a delightful reception wa? tendered the Conference? where dainty refreshments were serv ed. On Saturday evening Mrs. T. B. Gibson's lovely home was thrown open to the delegates and young people of McCall. A delightful programme of music and recitations had been arrang ed and was enjoyed by all present. Too much cannot be said of the hos pitality of the good people of McCall, and many delegates were heard to ex press themselves of this being the very best meeting since the organization of the Society. On Sunday evening Mrs. Wightman delivered her annual address, whic\ brought to a close a very profitable meeting of the Woman's Foreign Mis sionary Society, and the delegates left for home on Monday morning with re newed missionary zeal.

WE beg of you for help to move. Thia ia uo joke. Weare in cold earnest and will prove it to you. Listen while we talk, and then take your turn at speech making: We have again outgrown our panta loon breeches, (as a Dutchman once said,) and we must make dem some more big. Or to make it clear to you, the house in which we do business bas become too j small to conveniently accommodate our large and growing trade. Hence we have secured a larger and more desirable house on Granite Row. Now, we have not for gotten what a job it was four years ago to lug about nine thousand dollars of stuff up here from our little old place, though the back doors were almost touch ing. And how much more of a job will it be now for us to move over twenty-five thousand of Goods clear across the Pub lic Square. We don't want to do it, and we ain't agoin' to do it. No, we are just going to make a grab-pile of it, and let our friends and enemies come in and carry it off for us. To give you an idea of our intentions in the matter-listen : For every ten cents traded with us wa will give you a help-move ticket. If you trade 50c. worth you get five help move tickets, and so on. These tickets entitle the holders to free grabs at the pile, or lc in trade for each ticket held. Nor is that all. Every little bay or girl who comes in and buys 25c. worth of Good?, or is with an older person who buys 25c. worth or more, we will give free one Hickory or Boxwood Top or a tiny Doll Baby-either black or white. Nor is this all. To the person trading the greatest number of bills, amounting to over one dollar, between now and AugUBt 28tn, we will give first choice of two German Yokell Clocks-greatly prized as an or nament souvenir. To the person trading the most bills, amounting to over 25c, we will give another Clock like above. Only one bill can be recorded in one day. But. Minor, saya Borne one, you can't afford it. Well, we admit as much, but we do it, anyhow. Now listen for prices to frighten competition. Ob, yes, they'll have to use a camphor bottle to keep up spirits now : *? CL .Q S3 ?-2 s o fi Ol o I ?
