Taxes.
The joint resolution

time for paying taxes wirftout penalty
passed the House amFfscnate, hut was
veto, d by the Governor on Thursday.
He said that tht**© was only $170,000 to
the credit op^iie general fund In the
treasuryj^atfd that for tiie payment of
the expense of the legislative session
and other expenses of the govermnent
and interest on the public debt mi the
first of January upwards of $326,000
would be required. If the extension
wore made the large tax payers would
hold off to th** last day Th* Htate might
borrow buiT that is contrary to sound
business principle-*, and utterly useless.
Upon the question of pa-sing titer* *-
olution over the veto the vote stood 26
yeas to 83 mte*. Representatives Crum
and Phillips voted for the exterraton and
Representative* Folk, Kiuard and Skin
ner against. ,
So the first day of January wdil be the

A Big Oak Tree.
Editor People:
I measured a few days ago
an oak
tree in the yard of tiie late Hanson
Bennett near Appleton that measured
twenty-six foet in circumference. An
old man that lived in that neighborhood
told nie when he was a young man he
bent it down and topped it with his
knife. D has been forty odd years ago
since ho told me. Nothing but a first
class cyclone could bend the old -giaut
now. It any of your readers Tuk
l’koplic know of a larger oak 1 would
like for them to report it.
Christmas will soon dawn upon us
again, but Christmas is not wfraf it
used to he when I was a boy. Time has
brought about a great change. The
young folks are anxiously looking for
ward tuthe time for old .Santa Claus to
come and bring tliem a heap of good
tldngs and presents.
The planters arc having a little rest
time now anff are lOolying forward for
the time to come to put in a big cotton
crop. Don’t you think nexU year w.ll
be tho year to plant a big cotton crop

A U'rael Criae. '
The sad duty falls to ni to-day to
chronicle the most heartless crime ever
commuted in this section of the Htate.
Several years ago the daughters of the
late Col. John J.Ryan, in the kindnewi
of their hearts, took a small colored
girl, Maria Butler, frem the Boor House
to be their house maid. They treated
her with unvarying klndnese, clothing
her Ailoely, teaching her, giving fre-
quei t preseirtsahd requiring only light
house and errand woik in return. (" Rot
man} day* ago she, now grown to be
from 13 to 14 years of age^stole a brooch
from Mis. Brown and was told that If
-he did nut returnjt Marshal Hwaun
would be called in and she would be put
in jail.
Ti
’aklng the money that bad been
given her she bought a box of Rough
on RaU and on Thursday last stealthily
put a portion of It in the coffee pot.
Mrs. Brown, upon tasting the coffee,
remarked that there was something
Wrong, hut Miss.Jda Ryan answered
that the peculiarity was caused by
tiie mustard dressing they had and
drank a part of her cup. 8he was sot n
tak^u violently ill and in spite of the
constant attendance of accompli-hed
physicians a^d the tender nursing of
devoted relatives and friends she grew
worse, untirit 2 o’clock on Friday
night she died. Mrs. Brownhftvingtft-
kmi onjy a r«#apoon*full escaped se
rious illness.
The youthful murderess was arrested
and confessed her crime and gave up
the box from w hich she had taken the
deadly poison. 8he was lodged In jail
to await trial at the next term of the
General Sessions. No event In all the
history of Barnwell has caused greater
add more general grief than the too
early death of M iss I Ja, Ryan. Her life
had from childhood been fragrant with
good deeds, and to the loved one* who
have lost the comfort of her prenmuo U
left the assurance of perfect faith that
her gentle spirit has finished all the
work given it to do u(>on earth and is
forever at peace among the souls of the
saints about the great white throne
above.

FEMININE SUPERSTITION.
> Are
MalrCwt. ^
Not superstitious? Yea, you am
Everybody la more or lesa.
Women are more superstitions than
men. I speak advisedly, says a writer.
A week ago I wouldn’t have admitted
It But siuoe then I have read from
the pea of do leea an author them the
InoomparubN Buskin that superstition
Is not, as has always been believed, aa
outgrowth and accompaniment of ig
norance, but la Urn result of a large
amount of spirituality. ,
The fondness which the human fami
ly has for things unreal and mystical
leads them td believe in supernatural
happenings. So, if some wise woman
laughs you to acorn because you won’t
have your hair cut on Sunday you tan
ateoce confront her and silence her
with Mr. Buskin’s theory. * Moreover,
you eaa parrv her vem uncomfortable
questions with logic from the same
great author.
^TTou won’t have yonr hair cut on
Sundays, ” she saya “Why not?”
“Because," say you of the superstl-
tidn “it won’t grow If I da"
“Why Won’t it grow just the same as
you had It cut on Monday or any
other day?” — J ’“
“Because It won’t"
“ But this doesn’t satisfy the wise wom
an. She wants a reason for it. Then
you can rise in your might and an-
nounoe: “Mr. Buskin says that the
*eeaon wo believe in things for which
there la no reason la just tho reason
why wo believe in them."
You may depend upon It with ab
solute certainty that this same wise
If
woman has several pet mysteries of her
own whloh she believes in firmly and
tor wkleh she, like yon, could give no
other reason than “because.”*
To return to the cutting of hair; U is
safe to my that not one woman in fifty
won Id eoU sent to have her bang trimmed
on Sunday, and among the other forty-
aiae oould bo found a largo majority
jwho wouldn’t, under any eirenm-
stoaoes, have theirs out on Friday. “Be-
maaa,” they would tell yon, “to have
on«% hair out on Friday la a sure sign

The only wav to escape this uawtshed-

Color of tho Kvo a Tost of Strougth.
It is mid that the health of the bru
nette type of eye le, as a rale, superior
to that of a blonde type. Black eyei t
usually indicate good powers of phy-
sical endurance. Dark blue eyes are
moat common In persons of delicate,
refined or effeminate nature, and gen
erally show weak health. Light blue,
and, much move, gray ayes are most
common In tho hardy and active. With
regard to the diseases of the eye, brown
and dark colored are weaker or more
eaaeeptlble of to jura, from various
anuses, than gray or blue eyes. Light
blue, eyes are generally the moot pow
erful, and neat to thorn are gray. The
lighter the pupil the greater and long

tha eve eqn sustain. Tha majority a
firtt-etom shots are men whose ores are
either blue er gray In odor.—Indian-
