THE STATE LEAGUE.
Has Started On Its Last Week of
of the-Season.
The following is copied from The
State of yesterday:
"Today the four clubs in the little
South Carolina State league start on
the last week of the season of 1908.
In the game little league Sumter
- and Chestr will fight it out fpr first
place, while Orangeburg and Rock
Hill will battle for third place. Sum
ter starts the week with two less lost
games than Chester, just 19 points
in'Sumter's favor. Orangeburg leads
Rock Hill by two less lost games,
14 points. So it will be seen that
the finish this week In the State
league will be interesting in more
ways than one.
"Sumter plays the whole week at
home as the Orangeburg series has
been transfered there.
"Chester plays at Rock Hill today,
Tuesday and Wednesday, and closes'
the Be?son at home with Rock Hill
on Saturday, August 1. It will be
noted that Siimter and Chester have
won the same number of games, 37
7?likewise Orangeburg and Rock
Hill, 25. Here is hoping the finish
will be without friction and that
the best club will win out." *
The Local Paper.
The local paper should be found
in every home. No children should
grow up ignorant who can be
taught to appreciate tbe home pa
per. It is .said to be the stepping
stone of intelligence in all those mat
ters not to be found in books. Give
your children a foreign paper which
contains not a word about any per
son, place or thing, which they saw
nor perhaps" ever neard of, and how
could you expect them to be interest
ed. But let them have the home
paper and read of people "whom they
meet and cf places of which they are
familiar and soon an interest is
awakened which increases with' every
arrival of the local paper. Thus a
habit of reading is formed and those
children will read the papers all
their lives and become intelligent
men and women, a credit to their
ancestors, strong in knowledge of'tne
world as it is today. *
The Gymnasium Craze.
Seme of our boys seem to have
the gymnasium craze. That is right
and proper, but after ail the cheapest
and best gymnasium in the world?
one that will exercise every bone
and muscle in the body?is^ a flat
piece of steel, notched in one side,
fitted tightly into a wooden frame,
and. after being greased on both
sides with a bacon rind, rubbed into
a stick of wood lengthwise on a saw
buck. *
Campaign Against Sin.
Sunday night the fourth sermon in
the Campaign Against Sin was
preached in the Methodist Church
by Rev. J. L. McLees. His subject
was "Gambling and Its Consequenc
es." The next sermon will be preach
ed on next Sunday night in the
Baptist Church by Rev. W. S. Hol
mes on "Personal Influence."
Will Be Played in Sumter.
On account of the poor attendance
at the base ball games in this city
the three games which were to have
been played here the last of this
week with Sumter will be transferred
to that city, where Orangeburg will
play the whole of the week. *
Will Run on Full Time.
The Orangeburg M'f'g. Company
announced last week that they would
begin to operate on full time in about
ten days. The mill Has been run
only four days each week for the
past few months.

For the Crime.

12 years old, nas been lodged in jail,
charged with entering the residence
of Mr George H. Cornelson, in this

day. Mr. Cornelson and family are
summering in North Carolina and
during their absence the place is in
charge of a watchman, who only
leaves at meal time. ihe act was
committed while the watchman was
at dinner, an entrance being effect
ed from the rear by smasning a
pane of glass, which enabled the "in
truder to unlock a door. Drawers
were ransacked and a number of
articles were scattered about the
floor. Whether or not anything was
stolen cannot be said until Mr. Cor
nelson returns.
Adams, as is common in such
cases, denies his guilt and endeav
ored to inculpate another negro, boy,
but Chief of Police Fischer is con
vinced that he has the right party
who, notwithstanding his few years,
has been in limbo before and now is
in a fair way to be sent up for a
term of years. The case will be
tried at tne September term of
Court. *

o'clock a negro woman by the name
of Julia Salley was shot by a negro
man named Anderson Badey at her
home in Wannamaker Court near

BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR O. C. I.
President Peterson Has Just Issued
Fifteenth Annual Catalogue.
The 15th annual catalogue of the
Orangeburg Collegiate Institute has
been issued, and is now being sent to
prospective patrons throughout the
State. The school is attracting more
? attention each year, and is bringing
to the city boys and girls from many
different sections of the State. The
health record of the schco. has been
almost perfect. President Peterson
has worked hard for the school, and
it has had a fine teaching force each
year.
For the coming year, 13 teachers
have been engaged, representing the
very best colleges in this ami other
States. Besides the regular course
of study, the school makes a special
ty of preparing boys and girls for
college examinations. Large num
bers of studems who have been train
ed here take the examinations for
Winthrop, Clemson and the Citadel
each year, and they have been
eminently successful in securing
scholarships. There has been a de
mand for a school of this nature In
the State for a long time, and Or
angeburg naturally feels proud df
it. President Peterson says the
prospects for the school were never
brighter than they are for the fall
session. He receives numbers of re
quests for catalogues and informa
tion each day.
The boarding capacity of the*
school is 150,, 70 girls and 80 boys.
The total enrollment for the past
session was 220, which includes the
town patronage. The latter is nev
er very large owing to the fact that
Orangeburg has one of the finest
systems of graded schools in the
State, and tuition is free there for
students in the city. *
CHILDREN'S DAY PICNIC.
A Very Pleasant Day Spent at Two
Mile Swamp.
On last Saturday,' July 25th. A
"Children Day" picnic, was given
by the good people of the Norway
section, at Two-Mile Swamp church
which was attended by a very large
crowd. The number present was
?estimated at about 1200 or 1500.
Exercises began at 10 o'clock a.
m. A number of speeches were
made by the little children, that were
very interesting and were enjoyed
by all that heard them. After the
children's exercises, a good long
interesting talk was delivered by Mr.
Lucius Livingston ,of North, S. C,
after which the committee adjourn
ed for dinner. The dinner was de
layed sometime by a good rain, that
came up just as the well filled bas
kets were ready to be opened. Of
course, every body with their baskets,
left the table to seek shelter in the |
church ami school house.
After dinner, we were, addressed
! by Mr. Clifton Hair. He made a
good talk that was enjoyed too, by
all near enough to hear him. Clif
ton is a bright young boy of that
section and is trying hard to make
a good man of himself. He has the
good wishes of all who know him,
in his good efforts.
The rain was very much needed
in that section. Therefore it, was
appreciated, if it. did disturbe the
people and make them wait a while
for dinner. I don't think any ofj
them waited long enough to hurt
themselves, when v they did get it,
by eating too much of the good din
ner that was plentifully spreaded be
fore them. C. C. B.
A Husband!'Suggests a Plan.
A contributor to "The Pilgrim's
Script," in the August American
Magazine, says:
"I have read the article on 'Mar
riage and Divorce' in the July Amer-|
ican Magazine with great interest. I
am glad to see that the young man
[you quote lets his wife handle all
the money. We do that in our fami-j
ly, and here is a detail that I offer
as a further suggestion:
"Out of our general fund my wife
takes for herself, and gives me, a
fixed personal allowance. We each
preserve that inviolate. We must
dress ourselves and meet certain de
finite expensgs out. of these individual
funds. If I exceed the speed limit
in neckties I have to solier up until
i
next month. If I decide to switch
from $5 shoes to $7 shoes, I can do
vo without tturniiig off the light that
makes home happy. If my wife pays
$20 for a hat I can admire the hat.
and laugh over the fit of folly
that drove her to such extravagance.
It is no concern of mine. I know
that she will have to economize
somewhere."
Lever Must Take a Rest.
Congressman A. F. Lever return
ed to Lexington Thursday, after an
absence of ten days, during which
time he addressed a number of po
litical meetings in his district and
spoke to great farmers' rallies at
Gaffney and Union. The 7th dis
trict Congressman is rapidly becom
ing one of the most popular speak
ers in the State, and his good work
for agriculture has made him in
great demand at farmers' meetings.
Congressman Lever is suffering very
much with throat, trouble, and a
specialist in throat diseases has or
dered a complete rest for him.
While the trouble seems serious, it
is thought a ten days' rest will put
the young Congressman back in
condition for finishing the summer's
work. *
Has Returned.
City Electrian Roberts, who was
quite ill in this city some weeks ago
and who left for his home at Ninety
Six to get needed rest, returned to
the city last week. Mr. Roberts is
now fully recovered.
Have Received Uniforms.
The Orangeburgg Military Band
have received their uniforms and
wili likely rnake their appearance la
them at the next c/ icert.
MONEY NEEDED.
THE DEMOCRACY'S CALL TO THE
people!
Every Democrat in Orangeburg Coun
ty Should Help in the Fight For
. Good Government.
As we stated in our Friday's issue
Mr. Bryan has issued a call to the
Democratic newspapers of the United
States to solicit funds for Democra
tic campaign expenses. The Times
and Democrat takes( pleasure in in
viting Democrats of Orangeburg
County to respond to that call. Con
tributions from individuals, large or
small, will be received by this paper
and acknowledged and forwarded to
the proper autnoritfee.
.The suggestion that this call be
made upon t.ie Democratic press of
the country came to Mr. Bryan from
South Carolina, and it seems to us
peculiarly appropriate that the press
of the South and the people of the
South should heartily support the
movement.
The State says "the forces oppos
ed to Democracy, as reflected in the
Denver platform, control nine-ten tus
of the newspapers of the great cities.
The same influences exercises a warp
ing pressure upon the news-gathering
and news-disseminating associations
of the country. The result is
that the Democratic party' can hope
for but little friendly co-operation
from those papers that are only "De
mocratic" when the Democratic plat
form and those that stand upon it,
lean toward Republicanism."
"Is not this the occasion for the
newspapers of the South, true to
their section, true to their party and
true to themselves, to rally to the
party and endeavor to counteract the
traitorous defections elsewhere? And
as the metropolitan newspapers have
definitely refused to enlist in a great
popular fight against corruption in
politics and predatory dishonesty in
business, is it not more incumbent
upon the Southern newspapers?
daily and weekly?that are nearer
the lives of the\peopIe to give De
mocracy aggressive support?
"And what of the obligation of
the people of tne South? We had
our dark days during "Reconstruc
tion"?th'e darkness made possible
by Republican rule, and that was
only dispelled by the light of De
mocracy?but for thirty years the
Southern States have had fair poli
tical sailing. Here, whatever honors
and emoluments there are in poiitics
go to Democrats. To 3Upport Demo
cracy in the South is not costly; it
requires no sacrifice. How different
in most of the States of the East and
West, where a Democrat is in a per
petual minority, and stands for his
principles at the cost of hope of poli
tical preferment!
"It is true that the South gives
her electoral votes to the party of
the people, but only stout fighting
and continued fighting by Democrats
of other sections'makes national vic
tory possible. Should not Southern
Democrats enter in earnest into the
thick of the fight and aid their party
by contributing to the full extent of
their ability the financial sinews so
urgently needed?" The Times and
Democrat hopes that every Democrat
in Orangeburg County will make a
contribution to the cause. The De
mocracy has to depend on the people
for money to run their campaign
and they should respond as liberally
as they can. *j

SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE.
What is Causing the Increase of
Catarrh .in Orangeburg?
Catarrhal troubles are increasing,
not only in Orangeburg but all over
the country.
/Catarrh is a germ disease and, to
cure it, germ life in the nose, throat
and lungs must be destroyed, and
this can be done only by breathing
Hyomei.
There is no dangerous stomach
drugging when Hyomei is used; no
tablet or liquid mixtures whereby
the digestion is often destroyed and
intestinal troubles added to the hor
rors of catarrh.
Breathed through the neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every out
fit, its healing balsams penetrate the
most remote air cells, destroying
the catarrhal germs so that quick
recovery follows. The complete out
fit costs but $1.00, and Dr. J. G.
Wannamaker Mfg. Co., agrees to re
fund the money should Hyomei fail
to do all that is claimed for it.

A Maine Whisky.
Sir Thomas Dewar told an amusing
story at the opening of Dewar House
concerning a liquid which he once
sampled In the prohibition state of
Maine, U. S. A. When he asked what
it was made of he was told ihe blender
took a gallon of wood alcohol, pu* a
wiueglassful of glycerin in It to mellow
It. then ground down some plug tobac
co and strained It through a cheese
cloth to give It a flavor.and united the
whole with a gallon of water. It was
called '?squirrel whisky" because
"those who drank it talked nutty and
climbed trees."?London Globe.
The Locust Story Outclassed.
The king commanded the court story
teller to unfold a narrative without an
end.
"Once on a time there was a huge
building filled with corn," began the
story teller. "An enormous swarm of
locusts swooped down on this tremen
dous edifice and"?
"Stop!" commanded the king. "That
tale is a bearded chestnut I want
something new. But it must be a sto
ry without an end."
The story teller departed. Several
hours later he returned and was ad
mitted to the royal presence.
"0 most, mighty monarch," he be
gan, "I hnv? found one who"can regale
you with a story which is devoid of
conclusion."
"Produce!" cried the king.
The story teller passed from the
throne room, but soon returned. He
was accompanied by a woman.
"Your highness, this lady will tell a
story which has no end," announced
the story teller.
Then the woman told the king every
thing she was going to purchase when
her husband had his salary raised.
The king was still listening.?Har

Tho Saving of the English.
I cannot disguise from myself the
helpless dependence of tbe British em
pire on us (the Irish) for vital elements
of talent and character. Without us
the English race would simply die of
respectability within two generations.
?Bernard Shaw.
Ho Saw With His Mouth.
"A wealthy and Indolent countryman
of mine," .said a Frenchman, "spent
several years in America. On his re
turn to Paris a learned society invited
him to dine.
" 'Tell us your impressions of that
great and rich country where you re
mained so long,' they said to him at
tbe dinner.
"And be pondered a long while.
Then be said:
*' Tbe American redhead duck Is de
lightful.'
"But the leaped men about him
pushed aside that statement He had
been In America eleven years. Surely,
they said, he must have observed other
things.
"And the guest, after a very great
while of thought,'said:
" 'The American canvasback duck is
also delightful.'"
Tho Missing Frog.
The pupils of a c'istingulshed pro
fessor of zoology, a man well known
I for his eccentricities, noted one day
two tidy parcels lying on their In
structor's desk as they passed out ?t
the noon hour. On their return to the
laboratory for tbe afternoon lecture
they saw but one. This the professor
took carefully up in his hand as he
opened his lecture. "In tbe study of
vertebrata we have taken the frog as
a type. Let us now examine the gas
trocnemius muscles of this dissected
speeimen." So saying, the professor
untied the string of his neat parcel
and disclosed to view a ham sandwich
and a boiled egg. "But I have eaten
my lunch," said the learned man be
wllderedly.
These Married Men.
"A charming actress sat beside me
one night at a dinner," said a Phila
delphia playwright, "and with the fish
some one began to talk about wifely
extravagance.
"The actress listened to tale after
tale of the ruinous extravagance of
wives, and finally she said:
'"Wives' extravagance?oh, yes. You
men are all alike. You are all like the
broker who at midnight at bis club
hiccoughed, wiped his eyes und said
brokenly:
" * "This is the sixth bottle of cham
pagne I've drunk today, all through
my wife making me lose my temper.
It Is terrible what a lot of money that
woman costs me."' "
Our Insignificance.
Worlds are but dreams of God and
evanescent. The galaxies of suns burn
out; the heavens wither. Even time
and space are only relative and the
civilization of a planet but an Incident
of its growth.?Lafcadlo Hearn.
The Other One.
"Yes," he said, after explaining to
his wife that the lodge meeting had
been a very Important and a somewhat
protracted one, thus making It Impos
sible for him to get home a minute
earlier than he did. "and there were
two fellows there who made the worst
fools of themselves you could imagine.
You couldn't find two worse chumps in
a row of counties clear across this
state."
"I suppose not," che replied. "Who
was the other one? I'd like to sym
pathize with his wife."?Chicago Rec

Satisfactory Plan.
"Your wife's twin sister Is so like
h-r that I wonder you can tell them
apart"
"Well, when I meet either of them I
kiss her. When she slaps my fp*o I
know It isn't Bertha."-Metgendorfer
Blatter. _ ??
