Neighbor Heard Struggle. C. Costelo, a Greek fruit vender, died at the Brady hospital In Atlanta a few days ago from injuries re ceived at the hands of a murderer last Saturday night. He had finished his day's work and had driven his horse and wagon into an alley on Luckie street. Mrs. J. Sharkey who lived in an adjoining house heard several blows. Looking out she asked Costelo what the trou ble was. Oh, nothing," was the reply. "The horse kicked" me, that's all." He was asked if he was hurt, and the reply was that he was not, but was going to call a doctor in a few moments. Suspicioning the voice, the lady aroused her son and sent him into the alley to investigate. He found Costelo lying beside the wagon un conscious from several blows that had been -ained upon his head. The form of another man was dis cernable in the darkness, but he es caped before he could be recognized. The injured man was taken to the hospital, but did not recover con sciousness. Owing to the similarity of the attack, it is suspected that it came from the same source as that made upon Mr. and Mrs. Wittles, causing Mrs. Wittles* death, several weeks ago. Wittles was also a fruit salesman. DID NOT FORGET HIM. A Young Boy Left a Big Sum of Money by His Father. A dispatch from Aiken to The News and Courier says little Willie Rosenburg, son of Mrs. Daisy Rosen burg, who resides near this city, is made heir to a large portion of his father's large estate, by his will, made before his death, several days ago, and the sum of $57,500 is left to him. A telegram was received in the city informing Willie of his father's death in Atlantic City, and of the provision made in his will, leaving iiis son this sum. Mrs. Rosenburg is a native of Aikcn, and was married some years ago to Mr. R. W. Rosenburg, who, after living some time with his wife, became estranged from her, and he fore his death, becam?? divorced. Willie, their son, is a lad of eight or nine years, and the will of the late father, filed a day or two ago in Pittsburg, of which place he was a resident, shows the he was never forgotten. REHEARING NOT ASKED. Attorneys for Creditors of State Dis pensary Have Filed no Petition. The Washington correspondent of The News and Courier says although it was expected that a petition for a rehearing in the South Carolina dispensary case would be filed Mon day, no such step3 had been taken up to the hour of closing the clerks office of the Supreme Court. The Wilson and Fleischman interest will have Tuesday also in which to file such a petition should they desire to do so. The case was decided April 5, and the custom of the Court is not to issue its mandate until thirty days have expired, which would be Wednesday. The Court took a re cess Monday until May 17. Upon that date it will take another recess until May 21: then it will zo into a sumnver recess. If a petition for rehearing is filed it is almc:-! certain that it will not be acted upon until some time next fall. Paying Out Dividend. The Columbia Record says the slockholders of the noted Seminole Securities company, which made Lau rent and John Y. Garlinpton and oth ers famous, will be charmed to learn that in a short time, probably within the next few weeks, they will get a payment of 20 per cent on the par value of their stock, which they bought at 50 per cent premium. To illustrate, purchasers of 1.000 shares who paid $1.500 more or less for their neatly engraved certificates will get ?20O, others in like proportion. This will be the first payment and it is promised that others will follow as soon as certain litigation on hand is disposed of. What the final pay ments will total none of the- receivers in charge of winding up the affairs of the company under the orders of the court will even undertake to esti mate. Don't forget that the best way to silence your conscience when it dis turbs you is by obeying it. For Sale. 35 or 40 sheep and lambs: apply to G. M. Salley, Orangeburg, S.

'!? -I-S- ?!? ?!? ?Z"I"I ? ?!? ?!? ?!? 'I- -I' ?!? With a smile of glorious anticipation illuminating his chubby face. Bobby trotted up the street as fast as a pair of very fat and very little legs would carry him. He was going to see Dick Brant. Next to visiting Alice May ling this was his greatest treat. Richard Brant could not make amaz ing cookies and preserves like Miss Mayling, but he could tell stories of Indians and grizzlies and other crea tures dear to the small boy's heart. Miss Mayling's stories carried morals and were about little boys who were so very good that Bobby found them extraordinarily uninteresting. Had it not been that the Mayling cakes were as good as her young heroes Bobby would not have been a frequent caller on Alice Mayling. This afternoon as he was warming his dimpled hands before the open Ore he regarded with secret awe the deft fashion in which Brant rolled himself a cigarette with one hand. Brant had been a plainsman until he had run across a m!ue while he was looking for stray cattle, and he could throw a rope and talk real Indian talk. "I locked for you yesterday." said Dick Brant gravely as he sank into a chair on the opposite side of the fire place. "I was seeing Miss Mayling." ex plained Bobby. "She makes cake on Thursdays." "And you deserted me because Miss Mayling was making cake!" cried Dick solemnly. In reality, though he used mock pathos, he was a little jealous of Miss Mayling's popularity with his lit tle chum. Somehow Bobby seemed to Brant the most sincere friend he had made in the big eastern city. "Cake is nice just out of the oven." explained Hobby. "She always bakes a little cake for me. and of course I have to go and eat it." "I suppose so." assented Dick, "but I was very lonesome yesterday." "I'm sorry," said Bobby, with prompt penitence and a troubled face. "Wouldn't it be nice," he added, "if I could go to see you and Miss .Mayling at the same time? You could tell me stories and she could bake cake." He stared into the fire, lost in rap ture at the thought of this most valua ble combination. Dick looked scared and blushed. He was little used to feminine society, and a suggestion like that, even from Bobby, startled him. Besides, he bad been secretly studying Miss Mayling from afar. "Then you wouldn't be lonesome any more," resumed Bobby, the vast at tractions of his good idea growing on him, "not even If I didn't come and see you, 'cause then you and she would have eacl uher. But of course 1 would come to see you." he added quickly. "It would be awful nice." "I guess it would." assented Dick a little absently. "Then why don't you?" demanded Bobby, with engaging directness. "To begin with. I don't know her." explained Dick. "You see, a man has to know a lady before he can call on her. and I've never met Miss May ling." When Bobby finally trotted away he was thinking deeply. It was absurd that his best man should not know Miss Mayling. At the uext baking day at Miss May ling's the thought was revived, and with a denial that meant Immense de termination to him he obtained per mission to take his small spice cake home. As soon as he was out of her sight he carried It to Brant, his fat legs speeding wonderfully. "Ain't it fine?" he demanded eagerly when he had watched Brant devour the last spicy morsel, not without envy that almost assumed a poignant de gree. "Simply great." admitted Brant, with unforced enthusiasm. "I tell you. Bob by, the woman who made that cake'is a wonder of a rook." Bobby beamed l:is professional satis faction. "I thought you'd like it." he said confidently. "She makes nicer cakes than that sometimes. I'll bring you another when she makes fruit cake." "Dou't do it." advised Brant smil ingly. "If the fruit cake is as good as this I'm liable to nbduct her and force her to bake cake for me for the rest of her life." "What's abduct V" demanded Bobby. When the word had been explained to him he wrinkled his pudgy brdws. But if another deep idea bad come to him, as that contortion would seem to de note, it remained a secret in his fat breast. "Give us an Indian story." he demanded. "All right, son." said Dick as he stretched himself out in Iiis easy chair and prepared to entertain his small guest with the story of how Chief Spotted Panther carried off his Indian bride from the caiup of n hostile tribe, j He was unusually graphic in his | story telling, for as he went uu he be gan to imagine that he was Spotted | Panther and Miss Mayling was the! Indian maid. Thus sadly had the tin- j principled suggestions of the scheming Bobby contaminated I i I: Brant's goinl manners Rul it niiisl he admitted in bis faviu* r!- u it wzus ti n the cuke, but. the memory of !mt womanly sweet- ! ness, tli.il lir"d his thoughts and lent eloquence to his tongue. It was a deeply Impressed small boy who climbed down uff the chair arm when the tale was dune and regret fully announced that he would have to be going home. The very next day he went to visit Miss Marling with the more or less peremptory request that she bake him a fruit cake. '"Going to have a tea party. Bobby?" she asked gayly. But Bobby shook his head solemnly and declined to be drawn into trivial conversation. "I want it for some one?some one who doesn't get nice cake," he con descended at last, examining Miss Mayling shrewdly as he spoke. "If you don't tell me who it Is I won't bake it for you." she teased, an ticipating the revelation of some new love affair. Bobby was as popular as he was fickle, and Miss Mayling. hard ened by experience with the young man, supposed that only the power of love could have induced him to forego the eating of her cake the day before. "Have I got to?" he asked anxiously, fearful that a premature explanation might destroy the success of the ab duction. "Certainly." insisted Miss Mayling. Bobby was dismayed. But the cake must be secured at all hazards. "It's for Mr. Brant." he explained. "He snld if you baked him a fruit cake he'd come with his pony and hit all the chiefs on the head with a tom my hawk and carry you off and make you bake cake for him all the rest of your life. You'll have to live in a tent and cook with hot stones instead of a gas range, and?and?anyhow, he says he'll do it If you tempt him with fruit cake." Miss Mayling leaned over and kissed the earnest little face. "I think," she said softly, "that I'll bake two little cakes next week, Bob by, so that you and your friend shall each have one." Bobby looked Into the serene face, into which there had crept something he had never seen there before?a ten der curve to the even lips, a new light in the brown eyes that made them glow and sparkle and film with tears by turns. He -had always thought Miss May ling almost as pretty as his mother, but now he was disloyal for a mo ment and thought she was more beau tiful than anybody he had ever seen. His moist little fingers clasped her slim, cool hand, and he looked up into her starry eyes. "I wish I was big enough to 'duct yon." he said enviously. "I bet Mr. Brant wouldn't get that cake." Alice Mayling bent over and pinched his chubby cheeks. "Bobby, my dear, yon remind me of a certain little god without whose aid Lochinvar himself would have failed.'' And then she looked up suddenly to see passing her window a tall, straight figure, with his glance firmly fixed ahead. "Of course he wouldn't be so or dinary as to stare in here." she said softly. "But he's the sort who'll find a way?and 1 don't think I'll make it very hard for him." Bobby cuddled closer to her soft, silken frock. "What makes grownups say things that don't tell anything?" he demand ed. But she did not answer. Intoxicating Drinks. "We have G.000 intoxicating drinks in America." said a temperance lec turer. "That, I believe. Is the record. "Expert as our metropolitan imr tenders are. they have none of them mastered the entire American drink question, and they would throw up their wet hands if a man asked for a bak-no-ma-shalo. a casusha. a sam, a laraugina or even a mescal. "You see. all the races that compose America Introduce here, the drinkfc of their old homes. Bak-no-ma-shalo rmd sam are oriental cordials, sweet and perfumed and uusty, that our soldiers and sailors learned to like in the Philippines. "A larangina is a slightly acid drink from South America. It is a mixture of the leaves, lowers and fruit of tropical plants?orange, banana, lime, pineapple, lemon, chocolate, mango, guava, tamarind and I don't know what. "Mescal is a Mexican abomination made of the cactus. It goes down like a bunch of cactus thorns. "A casasba is a powerful sugar cane rum that the Jamaicans distill illicitly. For a cent you can buy a pint, though half a pint is quite sutiicieht."?New Orleans Times-Democrat. A Queer Fish. In European fresh water is to be found a very large siluroid known as the weis. Its head is large, broad and depressed, fully as long as the trunk Itself, while the tail is compressed and longer than the head a ad trunk together. The entire fish is destitute of scales and covered with a smooth, slippery skin like an eel. The snout is very short, the mouth broad, with the lower jaw longer and very exten sible. There are six barbels around the mouth, two of which, situated on each side of the upper jaw before the eye, are very long, extending nearly to the tail. The other four are much shorter and arranged in pairs on the chin. Owing to its poor eyesight and sluirirish movements the weis would be badly handicapped in the race of life if not fur these barbels, especially those of the upper jaw. which can be moved voluntarily in every direction. In moving leisurely about the fish uses them constantly in feeling its way. and at the same lime they serve to at tract other Iis lies, which mistake them for worms.
