Although it was announced Tues day night that the strike at the American Can company's plant in Chicago had been settled the rioting around the place was fiercer Wednes day than it has been at any time and one man, John Nichols, lost his life by a bullet fired, it is said, from a train on which were a number of non union men being taken back to the city after the conclusion of the day's work. The fighting beagn early in the morning, when 300 Greeks who have been employed during the strike at tempted to come to the factory. They were met at the gates by a large num ber of union pickets who attacked them with stones and clubs. A large detachment of the police had their hands full in protecting the Greeks when a shot fired from the crowd aroused the Greeks to fury. Those who had entered the factory came pouring out armed with knives and revolvers and attempted to attack the union men and their sympathizer who were assaulting those Greeks who had not yet reached the gateway. The police after a desperate struggle managed to keep the two bodies of men apart. In this light a number of men were battered up. At night when the 300 Greeks left the plant they were attacked by a mob fully 10.000 strong that pelted them with stones, sticks and bottles. A Warning to AH. The Cotton Plant says the almanac makers ought to insert this warning the first of April: '"Look out for the oily tongued agent about this time." Never sign any sort of paper present ed by these sharp fellows. Do not even write your name on the blank page of a memorandum. Out West one of these fellows went around amongst the farmers ostensibly in trouducing some machine that the farmers were interested in. He was I not taking orders, but finding out ' probable purchasers so as to have cir culars sent by the house. For some reason or other he could not write and he asked the farmer to write his name and address. He mauaged so the name would be on the lower right hand corner of a blank page in his memorandum, which page was about the size and shape of a note. After getting a few of these signatures he filled out bankable notes above tbe signature, and then cashed them. Look out for the agents for lightning rods, patent chums, farming imple ments cooking stoves and deal very cautiously with them. Always buy such things from trustVyorthy mer chants and manufacturers and you will not be cheated. A "Wonderful Saving. The largest Methodist Church in Georgia, calculated to use'over one! hundred gallons of the usual kind of! mixed paint in^painting their church They used only ,'>2 gallons of the i Longman & Martinez Paint mixed with 24 gallons of linseed oil. Actual j cost of paint made was less than $1.20. per gallon. baved over eighty ($80.00) dollars in : paint, and got a big donation besides. EVEhY CHURCH will be given a liberal quantity whenever they paint. Many houses are well painted with four gallons of L. & M. and three gal- J Ions of linseed oil mixed therewith. Wears and covers like gold. These Celebrated Paints are sold by Wannamaker Mfg, Co., Orangebur^, S. C, and Shep Pearlstine St. Mat thews, S. C. Overcome By Gaa. Oscar S< Tenon, Edward Hammond and Jacob H .mmond, young men in their twenties, were all found dead in bed Wednesday morning at their home, No. 505 Richmond street. They were overcome with gas. Five Were Drowned. Five persons, members of apleasur party from the Florida Methodist col lege at Sutherland, Fla., were drowned near1 Anclote litrht house Sunday night. The dead are: Mrs. Walker, wife of the president of the college. Miss O'Connor of Atlanta. Miss Slaughter of Sutherland. Miss McCray of Sutherland. Mr. Bouland of Sutherland. President Walker and Miss Newton reached, the beach alive. The bodies of Mrr Walker and Miss O'Connor have hod yet been recovered. The bodies of the other thiee who lost their lives were washed ashore on the beach and recovered. President Walker had taken the party out for a cruise to the houss, but met with rough weather and the boat was over turned in the gulf. The Florida Methodist college is located at Suther land, on the west coast of the gulf, about 30 miles from Tampa. Who Are They? Senator Burton, of Kansas, who was convicted of accepting compensa tion to further the interests of a fraudulent concern before the post ouice ^department in his admissions made statements which must have brought consternation among the other senatorial grafters, but to their intense relief he did not mention any names. He said many of his sen jatorial brethren mad 3 large sums of money "practicing before the depart ments," some of them making as much as 840,000 a year. We agree with the Columbia Record that it is a pity that the senator did not go more into detail and tell the country who these men are. What the people want is to get those "big up" in this graft ing business at the national capital. A small beginning has been made, and for the good of the country there should be no stopping until all the rascals are cleaned out. No Bolter Wanted. Because he voted for McKinley in 18f 6 James R. Gordon, a leading busi ness man of Richmond, Va., has been compelled by party pressure to with draw from the race for mayor. Mr. Gordon announced himself as a candi date in response to the request of the city's business interests. His oppon ent ascertained that he had declined to support Bryan and had warmly in dorsed McKinley. This aroused such a storm among the "regular" people that Mr. Gordon is out in a letter an nouncing his withdrawal and express ing pleasure at being relieved from what he only undertook as a patriotic duty. Great Trust Grower. Unquestionably Theodcre Roose velt is the greatest friend the trusts ever had, judging from the ?gures. Under eight years of Cleveland $250, 000,000 worth of industrial trusts were formed, under McKinley about $2,200,000.00, while under Roosevelt tbe capitalization of these concerns reached the fabulous sura of $,3,670, 000,000. Never in the history of the world have the trusts flourished in such rank luxuriance as they have under the benign iuiluence of Abdul Roosevelt. A Queer Notion. Mr. C. M. Strader, a Keutuckian, before dying in Philadelphia the other day, dictated a will requiring his body to be cremated, the ashes taken to Loufsville and "scattered on the waves of the beautiful Ohio." He concluded: "When this is done, if the angel Gabriel can collect my re mains for the judgment, I will take otf my hat to him, and will be there at the last roll call."

A Spring Medicine that adds vigo* and strength to the system, jputtUes and enAches the Blood ? and lays the foundation few a strong constitution and good health during the hot sultry summer* Most everybody feels bad in the spring. Some have no particular ailment but are just tired, worn out and totally unfit for work or anything else that requires energy or efjort. They mope around upon the border-land of invalidism, irritable, peevish, hysterical and unreasonable. A good appetite in the spring is a rarity, and we sicken at the sight of food, or thought of eating, and what little we do eat is a burden to the stomach and a tax upon the digestion. Warm weather is sure to bring out the bidden poisons, germs and seeds of disease that have/ been collecting in the blood and system dur ing winter, and you may look for some old chronic trouble to make its appearance. It is a time, too, when boils and carbuncles, and pustular or seal skin eruptions like, eczema and tetter, pay their annual visits and make life miserable by their intense pains and intolerable itching and burning. The fight for health should begin before any warning symptoms of physical collapse are felt, or before the seeds of disease have time to germinate if we would avoid the usual spring sickness; and with S. S. S., the acknowledged king of blood purifiers and greatest of all tonics, you can put your blood and system in such perfect condition and so strengthen the constitution that one may be as free from sickness and as vigorous and strong during the trying mouths of spring and depressing summer season as at any other time. S. S. S. not only builds you up, but searches out and destroys any poisonous germs or impurities that may be lurking in the blood. The benefits derived from the use of S. S. S. are permanent because it acts directly on the blood and purifies and cleanses it of all impure matter, leaving nothing to cause fermt itatiou and deterioration of this life-giving fluid. In selecting your blood purifier and spring tonic get one that long experience and thor ough test have proven the best. In S. S. S. you will find a remedy whose purifying rjroper ties are unquestionable, and just such a tonic as your system needs. Ask your druggist for S. S. S.?there is nothing else just as good. For the past 40 years we have had a standing offer of ?1,000 for proof that S. S. S. con tains the least particle of any mineral whatever, and this offer is still open. ? Gentlemen : For over four j'ears I suffered with general debiiity, causing a thorough breaking down of my system, so thztt I was unable to attend to my household duties. I had tried other medi cines, which did not relieve me. Seven years ago my cousin, who had been benefited by S. S. S., told mo about it. I tried it and it cured me. I havo been able to attend to my household duties ever since, experiencing no inconvenience whatever; in fact, I am able to work in the garden as well as my house. I heartily recommend S, S. S. to all who may feel the need of a thoroughly good blood tonio, feeling sure they will be benefited thereby. Yours truly, MRS. JOSIE A. BRITTAIN. 44 "W. Ninth Sr., Columbia, Tenn.
