We find the County Jail In very good condition and well kept. We find the County Poor House very well kept. The keeper In forms us, however, that the well needs cleaning out, that he needs Hotue lumber to make neceaaary re palib. AIho that u now privy 1h badly needed. Wm recoin mend that the proper person be lnatructe<l to have theae mutter* attended to at once. We ultto recommend that th? ap proacheu to the bridge acrobb the Wateree Kiver be made bafe by constructing ralliiiKu along the ap* proachnb; jits In the prebeiit condi tion they are very uobufe.

We have been reliably Informed that thlb matter hab been brought to the attention of baid Hailruad Company and that bald Company hab paid no attention to . the mat ter at all.

MADE HIMSELF BLUSH. Trlok by Whloh en Actor Aohiavod a Rsaliatio Stage Effect. Dnnlel Frohman In his "Memories of a Manager" tells of a muscular trick by which Mr. F. F. Mackay achJeved an astonishing stage effect It was In Hronson Howard's "One of Our Girls." Mr. Mackay was playing the part of a French count, who, In one of the chief situations of the play. Is slapped In the face with a glove by an teuglisb officer. Mr Howard's idea was that the count should become violent and furious nt the affront, but Mr Mackay contended thut as he had been shown In the j)lay to be an expert dyoliat and accustomed to danger he was not likely to lose control of him self. Mr. Howard saw the point. The re sult was that the Frenchman received the Insult without the movement of a muscle. He stood rigid. Only a flash of the eye for un Instant revealed hla emotion Then the audience saw his face grow red aud then pale. This vftH followed by the Quiet announce ment from the count that he would send his seconds to the Englishman. This exhibition of facial emotion be trayed by the visible rush of blood to the actor's face was frequently noted at the time, it was a muscular trick. Mr. Mackay 'put on a tight collar for that scene and strained his neck against It until the blood came, and when be released the pressure and the blood receded the effect waa reached. A Joke That Went Astray. To illustrate tbe fact that some per sons are devoid of the eense of humor this story was told at a downtown luncheon club: "1 forgot to pay my newsboy last night and when t saw him this morning gave him tbe 0 cents due him and said. '1 thought every minute last night you'd Bend a collector for this. 'Naw, not on your life; not If you owed me twlcst as much.' Aji hour later tbe. boy came to my office, where be bad never been before, wait ed for me and wben 1 came said: 'Hay. I'm awrul sorry you thought I was sore about de nickel.

According to n theory enunciated by Professor Lenard. the aurora borealia Is formed of cathode rays, emitted by tbe sun and deflected by the terrestrial magnetic Held In the upper strata of the atmosphere.

WOMEN IN WALL STREET. They Are Good Winners, but Drown Their Loanes In Teara. To many brokers women are hoo doos, and some stork exchange houses refuse absolutely to have anything to j do with the fair sex. The majority of ! brokerage firms try their best to keep I women's speculative accounts out of i their olllces Some houses are obliged I to take women's accounts as a mutter | of personal friendship, but they will ! not opeu accounts for other women, do ; matter how well they may he Intro duced Wall street men do not have a high opinion of the average woman's busl j ness sense Most women have an lde i | that one needs only to get a "tip | frotn some "insider" In Wall street t ? be sure of making "barrels of money ?for new gowns, hats and Jewelry.

Harper's Weekly. Siren In Skirts. Which Is the uiost recent siren (of the animal variety! in history? Jacobus Noleran rentes that in 140;i a siren was captured In the Zulder Zee. 8he was tsays Mr. Norman Pouglas In "Siren Land"i brought to Haarlem and. being naked, allowed herself to be clothed; she learned to eat like a Dutchman; she could spin thread and take pleas ure In other maldeul.v occupations; she was gentle and lived to a great age. But she never spoke. The honest bur ghers bad no knowledge of the lan guage of the sea folk to enable them to teach her their own tongue, so she remained mute to the end of her days.
