The Daily Times' made its appearance in Greenville a few ilajs ago. It is an afternoon 7-coluinu quarto, ably edited und neatly printed. Anderson lias some big-hearted, pub lic-spirited mi-ii who take advantage of every opportunity to promote the town ami county's welfare. May their trihe increase. The prevalence ol crimes by hoys again emphasizes the dangei1 of reading l irions literature. The yellow-covered romance is second in its evils to the yellow newspapers that now infest iIm 'and, and have free entrance even into cultured homes. Here is si paragraph that is interest ing if true: A northern syndicate re cently offered Mrs. .lellerson Davis $!IO,Of)0 for her home at I lean voir. Miss., but she would not have (he place turn ed to commercial account. Now the State Daughters of the Confederacy are to buy the house for $2."?,O0O. If cotton mill companies continue to he organized in South Carolina, as at the rate during the past six months, thi? State will nut. only soon distance all her sister States in cotton manu facturing, l?ut will soon compete with Massachusetts. Let the good work ;ro on. We have room for many more. Anderson must have another big mill. The I'ostotliee Department has been overwhelmed with applications from communities throughout the country fo name their postofliccs "Dewey." Already twenty-eight postoiliccs in as many different States have been given the name of the hero of Manila Hay. and over :MH other applications are on the postal lilos. Seventy different places in Tennessee have asked for the name. Only one olllco in each Stale can bear the name. mm. mm The Natchez (Miss.) iPemoerat makes an appeal to cotton farmers to hold back one-third ol their ^iiiniiij^s until after December or January. It says: "The two-thirds will bring nearly as much money, marketed in this way, ;is the whole crop marketed in the usual way. The government says the .Inly condition is three and four-tenths per cent, leas, or a total depreciation of eleven and four-tenths per cent. Esti mating the current crop at I1.UU0.000 bales, it means a shrinkage of l.\?77.ooo bales for 1*0?-1900." The indications arc that the next campaign will open up earlier than common. The fact is names of men of prominence have been already men tioned by their friends as the proper persons to till certain ofllces. We do not suppose any one doubts that the chances of holding and gcttiug oftico is being iigured on very industriously by the ins as well as the outs. It is not at all likely that candidates will be scarce. The oilicea will not go begging. We are impressed that there will be some skillful moves on the political chess board, and warn the voters to he very watchful. The Neal investigating committee concluded its work in (ireenvillo last week. There were no new develop ments, except Senator Tillinnn'a denial of certain transactions which Neal says are true. From theiv respective state ments there is a big lie out. The com mittee finds Neal short about * 11,.">00, and Neal confesses to the amount of about $:i,U00. The report of the com mittee will he submitted to the Gov ernor this week, nnd it is said it will be recommended that Neal be prosecuted. Thi? is right. If Neal has stolen the State's money let him lie punished like any other criminal. The case will be watched with interest. The appearance of yellow fever at Hampton, Ya., only emphasizes the fact that there is need of a quarantine bureau that will cover every inch of national territory, and whose authority will be paramount and absolute. Only in this way can there he intelligent ami consistent preparation for li^htiug infection. A scourge like yellow fever knows nothing about the sovereignty of the States, and protection against it is really a matter of national concern. One of the first acts of Congress next winter ought tobe the establishment of a quarantine system tin t will finally remove the United States from danger of further visitation from the ''yellow terror." ? ? m Senator Tilluinn attended a pic nie at Sumter last Friday, and, judging from the newspaper reports of his speech, ho hoe commenced his work of again sto ring up the old factional bitterness in the State. Among many other things he said that ho was no peace and unity man and the lines were still here and would be drawn. The men who form ed the old rings nnd rode into office over the people's backs were still try ing to ride into office nnd would do it if not watched. Senator Tillman may be able to revive this old factional feeling, but in this section of the State the better and more intelligent class of his supporters have hod enough of it, and he will find that they will not up hold him in creating bitter strife among the white people again. We doubt if he will have any opposition in the campaign next year to succeed him self in the United States Senate, and there is no use for him to conduct his campaign as he did in former years. Such a campaign would again divide the Democrats and would do the grand old State harm. South Carolina is -. i j 111 m ^ rapidly in manufactories, In i people are contented and prosperous, ami any man who has the welfare, nml interests of the people at heart will not stir up strife among them. Antun ItesiN. Ke.v. Dr. Watson is doing some very excellent preaching at Sandy Springs just now. There is a very pleasing attendance, both at the morning and evening services. Work up, good peo ple, and do not let his labors he in vain. Miflp Minnie Bla< knian, daughter of Mr. nnd Mrs. .KM. Mack man, has re lapsed and is very ill at this writing. She has been routined for several mouths past with paralysis of the heart. Mrs. Km ma Majors, of I'ickens, while visiting relatives and friends in this community, was taken ill while at. Mr. .1. M.

Cotton is beginning to open, and we tear there will be a surprising shortage in t he crop.owing loa deficient quantity of rain. Messrs. .1. K.

Race Itiot In Greenville. GUKKNVII.I.K, S. C, August 7.? lie- , ports of a race riot in Greenville have been exaggemted. On Sunday night a I dfliculty started at the Poe Mill. Ac cording to the evidence of witnesses, negroes precipitated the riot by delib erately firing into the house of John It. Kllenburg, a cotton mill operative, living just across the Buncombe road from tin' fertilizer factory. The shoot ing occurred between (? and 7 o'clock, \ or an hour before dark. There wen; present at the house at the time of the shooting John It. Kl lenburg, Mrs. It. Kllenburg, T. P. Kl lenburg, the father of John It. Kllen burg, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Phillips, Tay lor and Walter Cannon. When the first >>hi>l was tired Mrs. Kllenburg was in the. rear end of the house. Her lit tle child was playing in the yard and she cried out : "Don't shoot the. children !" This was answered by two mom shots at the bous?', one of which took effect in the roof, .lohn It. Kllenburg then walked out on his front piazza nnd, ad dressing the negroes, said sharply : 'You hail better shoot, again." They answered him with two more shots. Then the crowd from the mill village began to gat her and march down to the fertilizer factory. There wer?? in the crowd of negroes .lack .Moore, Will Cunningham, Tom Jackson and George Clements. Moore was captured and carried to jail. Seeing Moore led off, the negroes immediately seized the idea and con viction that he was going to be lynch ed, and a courier was scut to the Mount '/.ion Colored Baptist Church to give the alarm and call for assistance. The Kev. .1. A. Pinson, the. pastor, was ask ed, to announce from his pulpit that a negro was being lynched at the Poe Mill, but Pinson, being cool-beaded and a man of judgment, refused. This broke up the meeting, however, and the negroes rushed from the build ing to secure weapons and go to the sceue. In the meantime a negro had gone to the home of Sheriff Gilreath and re ported the same thing to him. Chief of Police Kennedy and Deputy Sheriff Gilreath went to the scene about 10 o'clock, as quickly as they could ?et there after being notified of the trouble. At the Buncombe street railroad cross ing they met Deputy Sheriff Whitmiro and Officer Atkinson. A party of between fifty and seventy five negroes were congregated at the crossing, and a party of about twenty live whites in the woods, a few hundred yards away, guarding the operatives' houses. The officers persuaded this mob of negroes to disperse. While the other otlicers stayed at the crossing to see that the negroes did not reassemble after promising to go home, Chief Kennedy and Deputy Sheriff Gilreath crossed over by the fertilizer factory into Highland avenue. Here the otlicers met a mob of about too frenzied negroes well armed. They had revolvers, shotguns and axes, and one in the. crowd brandished a reap hook. After a parley Chief Kennedy sent, the Itev. Pinson, negro Baptist preacher, to jail to ascertain if Moore was a prisoner. He returned and re ported that Moore was in jail. This report ended the riotous proceedings. There was considerable firing of guns and pistols, and one white man and five negroes were wounded. In pnss iug through the streets of the city it is reported that some shots were tired into dwellings. The only fighting was between a few operatives of the Poe Mill and strag gling crowds of negroes. Later the Greenville Light Infantry was called out aud remained on guard until morning, but there was no further trouble and the negroes went to their homes. The names of the leaders are known nnd all will be arrested. If all the different crowd3 of negroes had collected atone point the consequences would have been serious. The officers handled the different crowds nnd pre vented concentration.?Neirsy and Cou rier. -m ? mm ? A horse is never sick at the stomach, because that animal is not provided with a gall-bladder. ?

I.?The most disastrous cyclone that ever vis ited this section of Florida completely annihilated Carrauelle, Mclntyrc und Lanark Inn., south of here, Wednes day. At Carrabcllc only nine houses re main of a once l>eautiful and prosper ous town. Communications from the mayor states that 200 families are with out home or shelter, und that many are completely destitute. Of Mclntyrc only two mill boilers mark the site of the town. Lanark Inn, the famous summer re sort, was blown into tin* Gulf. The Carrauelle, Tallahassee and Georgia railroad is washed away for a distance of ?KJ miles. A passenger train was blown from tin-track more than one h und red yards. .Many passengers were injured, but their names are unob tainable. .Mary Williams, colored, wan killed ;it Cuvubelle. Numerous others had legs and anus broken. Daniel Neel of Apulachicola had his bad; broken and is not expected to recover. No fatalities are reported from Mcln tyrc and Lanark. Fftecn ships lying at anchor in Dog Island cove and upper anchorage are now all high and dry on St. George's and Dog islands. Twelve were loaded with lumber and ready for sea. Noth ing remains of them but a mass of wreckage. When the Italian bark Cor teria struck she split hall' in two from stein to stern. The names of the hhips blown on the islands and w hich are total wrecks are as foljows: Norwegian bark Tanavola, Kdwartsen, master; Vale.

Tug boats have gone from here to the scene of the wreckage. All pos sible, aid is be?ng given them. Fifty destitute sailors were brought here to day and are being eared for. A mass meeting of citizens is being held here to-night and all possible aid will be given the Carrauelle destitute. One million dollars will hot cover the loss. The insurance is small. .Miss Lillian Jewett Takes tbe Bakers. CiiAiti.KSTOK, Aug. 5.?Lillian Clay ton Jewett the Boston girl who recently created a sensation among the negroes of that, city by declaring that she would come to Charleston and take back north with her the family of tho late Frazier B. Baker, who was lynched at Lake City, S. C, in 1897, with a view to beginning an agitation against mob law, has carried out her desigu. Miss Jewett arrived here Friday morning accompanied by her mother and a young man named K. G. Larsen, who is u Boston journalist. She had fre quent conferences with the Baker wo man and her friends and usa resuit she loft hero for Boston this afternoon ac companied by the entire Baker family, the mother and live children. Miss Jewett said her plans for the future were not yet formulated, but she proposed to hold mass meetings t hroughout the north to arouse popular sentiment against lynching and mob law generally. She did not regard her movement ns an issue between the races, but was advocating the cause of humanity irrespective of color or con dition. She said she was educated in Virginia and had some knowledge of the Southern people, and she was we'll aware that the better elements in the South joined heart and soul with the better elements in the North in de manding a halt in the commission of the outrages that recently have shock ed the world. She said that since her Boston address was made she had re ceived many threatening letters from the South, but to these she paid no heed knowing that they did not come from a source worthy of serious con sideration. Miss Jewett paid for the tickets of the Baker family from here to Boston, and she also bought a number of small articles of clothing for the wo man and her children. The Rev. J. L. Dart, a colored minis ter of this city, w ho has recently spent some time in Boston, returned to the city to-day and opposed violently the removal of the Bakers from Charles ton. He declares that Miss Jewett did not, represent the better class of white or colored peojde in Boston. He says she and those who stand with her merely want, to get control of the Bakers to make, notoriety and money for themselves.?('or. istalc. Atlsota's Thirsty Mayor. Atlanta. G a, Aug. 5.?On a vote of seventeen to three the resignation ef Mayor James G. Woodward, of this city, was asked, for at a secret caucus of the City.Council and board of Alder men held this afternoon. . 4 Mayor Woodward was charged with drunkenness several weeks ago, when impeachment proceedings were threat ened. At that time the Mayor prom ised to reform, but it is now charged that he has broken faith with the City Council. According to the resolution the resignation must be in by Monday morning; upon failure it is probable impeachment proceedings will be insti tuted. At the caucus it was intimated by Councilman Parks that persons who wanted certain measures passed, to which it was known Mr. Woodward was opposed, were behind this conduct. A Formidable Army.

A child's disposition may be ruined through existing defects in eye sight, causing abnormal nervous impulses over which they bave no control. In school, children are often falsely charged with stupidity or inattention to their books when some defect of tbe eyeB which makes reading painful to them is to blame rather than tbe child's mental dullness or inattentive disposition, and after such defects are properly corrected by properly fitted glasses the child is more attentive and better able to keep pace with the rest of their cIbrs, and of ten proves to be the brighteat by excell ing all otberB in their grade. Mark any peculiarities that children may have in looking at objects at a distance or near by. Squinting, frowniDg, looking side wise with partially closed eyes, or com {dain that they cannot see clear, or of ?eadaches, are indications of eye trou bles. What we inherft we are not to blame for. We cannot be held responsi ble for the dispositions and tendencies which we derive from our ancestors, nor are we responsible for tbe germs of dis ease which may manifest themselves in our blood as a heritage from former gen erations. But we are responsible when We allow congenital or hereditary trou bles or defects to go uncorrected in our children when properly adjusted glasses will relieve all trouble. If your children manifest any of tbe above peculiarities it is your parental duty to consult a com petent Optician at once, lest your negli gence or indifference may result in irre parable injury.
