AN UNHAPPY NAN.
IS ABDUL HAMID.
, Dwei twl by His Sons, Despised by
His Former Friends, Vet
Fears to Die. Wanders
, About His Pirson and
Lire* in Dread of
Assassination.
A remarkable account of the Intense
unhappineas of the deposed
8ultan Abdul Hamld, received from
the authentic source in Salonika, Is
published by the "Lokalanxelger,"
which states that the former despot
fears for his own life as much as
ever.
In consequence of his apprehension
that his enemies aim to assassinate
him he carefully avoids showing
himself at either of the windows
of the,Villa Allatlni, wherein
he has been imprisoned since he
was deposed nearly eighteen months
ago. He believes that he might
be shot from without if one of his
pursuers caught sight of him.
His thin, bowed figure wanders
Neither entreaties nor urgent advice
regarding the danger to his
health from remaining permanently
indoors, nor stringent medical orders,
can induce Abdul Hamid to
leave the house and take exercise
in the garden.
He not only refuses to leave the
house, but remains stubbornly on
the first floor of the villa. He refuses
to descend to the ground
floor, believing that there is a danger
of bombs being concealed in the
eel In r. Likewise he refuses to ascend
to the second floor, because he
fears that the villa might be set on
fire and that he might perish before
escape was possible. Trembling
day and night for his life, the
unhappy ex-Sultan leads a miserable
existence. He never undresses
and he suffers from insomnia.
A Wanderer at Night.
1 during the night from room to room
01 until finally he drops exhausted to
f *1' fitful slumber on some ottoman
out a During the daytime he works as a
cb carpenter. He recently completed
1 'D * a large wardrobe. Curiously
und- onough, he has a burning desire to
lharle no^ ^ much It appears, to
> -earn money as to convince himself
that his manuel labor can produce
i. J i sjjomething worth buying.
a'' Abdul Hamid hears nothing whate
-ever of events happening outside
'r ' 1 the walls surrounding the villa
* grounds. Neither he himself nor
his two wives nor the servants who
followed him into captivity are allowed
to read any newspapers. Ab^
,-\dul Hamld's keen wish to ascer'tain
what is happening in the world
fed him to attempt to bribe one oi
the warders, to whom he offered
$500 for the latest newspapers
When warders or officers speak to
him the ex-Sultan tries to starl
conversation with them, but the)
have orders to listen to his questlonr,
but to give indefinite re

An Intensely Ijonely Man.
Sometimes he sits hour after houi

whom he desired to leave his |
crown, has repudiated Abdul Humid, I
accusing him of having caused the !
death of his IBurhannedin's) moth-}
er, because Abdul Hamid refused to ,
summon a competent medical man l
to attend her in her illness. It is |
no exaggeration to describe Abdul
Hamid as the most unhappy man in
the world.
The Last Item.
A wealthy woman of Chicago
had hired a man to make an Invintory
of her household goods.
He started in the dining-room and
he went from there to the parlor.
He had been In this room for
some time, longer than It was necessary.
The mistress of the house
investigated. She found him asleen
stretched out -on the parlor couch,
a bottle of old rye In his hand and
the book of Inventory on the floor.
Picking up the book Bhe noticed
the last Item. It read, "One revolving
carpet" entered in a very
unsteady hand.
? ^iii? ?
The Last Stop.
One cold, wintry morning a man
of tall and angular build was walking
down a steep hill at a quick
pace.
A piece of iee under the snow
caused him to lose control of his
feet; He began to slide and was
unable to stop. At a crossing half
way down he encountered a large,
heavy woman. The meeting was
sudden, and before either realized
it a collision ensued and both were
down hill, the thin man underneath,
the fat woman on top.
When the bottom was reached
and the woman was trying to recover
her breath and feet, these
faint words were borne to her ear,
"Pardon me, madam, but you will
have to get off here. This is as
far as I go."
Through the Telescope.
The Rev. John S. Lyon a short
time ago told a story in Boston
which ran about as follows: "An
old lady who on shipboard was
about to cross the equator for
the first time went to the captain
very anxiously and said: 'Captain,
can I see the equator? 1 should
very much like to.'
"The captain smiled and replied,
, after thinking for a moment: 'Peri
haps I can arrange it; I'll try to do
( so.'
"Shortly afterwards, as the ves
, sel neared the 'great line,' the cap.
tain hastily summoned the old lady
. on the deck.
"Handing her the glass, 'Now,'
[ said he, you may see the equator If
> you look steadily and carefully
I through the glass.'
"Then pulling a hair from his
, red head, the captain held the hair
[ j In front of the glass which the old
f lady was Intently gazing through.
"Then he asked her: 'Do you
. see the equator, madam?'
"Still looking through the glass,
she was at first silent, and then exr
claimed: 'Oh, yes, yes, certainly?
, and, oh captain, there is a camel

On account of the fact that we are dred a
now separated from Marion county iy
and as the public funds of Dillon ;Hnd aI
county are not on a very good ^ *>ro
foundation, the county board has on
decided taat It will be best that no uox,?
claims be paid from the public 11 or
school funds teachers' salaries. The cauwJ?
iact is that we hardly have enough 8al(1 a
money to pay the teachers' salaries Krau,e
until Christmas when the taxes will
begin to come in, with which we ?'
can meet the obligations of the
schools. All claims will be paid af- 1
ter Christmas, but until that time 1,111
the trustees may take notice that no

teachers' salaries. 1 .. .
