Transvaal frontier.
A week before Phil
lips had seen the “Gold

expected war. His thoughts as hi
atared out of the car window may havi
gone hack bitterly to Johannesburg, U

rows, and hja own failure there. Clutch
ed In the hand, however, be held a tele
gram from his partner. Burton, and
thla be read: “Come up to Klerkeburg
next train. Big thing possible here.”
Around him men were arguing heated
ly In various dialects as to where Jou*
would strike first, what would
to the ultlanders and when It
would begin to happen. The train ran
on hour after hour. It came to a stop
at last and discharged Its passenger!
into the excited, questioning crowd*
which lilted the stsects of Klorksburg.
It wae almost midnight, but there wai
no quiet la tho towns of the border.
A large young Englishman stepped
out of the shadows and touched Phil
Ups on tho elbow. “Here you are.“ be
drawled. “It's late, but you mustn't
sleep yet Jack. You're expected.'*
“What la It anyway r asked Phillips.
“I don’t kno#, N replied the other,
"and I know at the same time that It Is
something worth our while.” He was
slower In hla mental processes than the
American, and be now fell into deep re
flection. “It was Atherton who told

this situation, and they advise delay.”
He nodded, perhaps unconsciously, to*
ward the room where the telegraph in
struments were clicking.
“Mot so very many miles from here,
at a point which your Maud Burton
known, there la a camp of the border
police. It lies about two miles from
the frontier line of the Transvaal, and
tea miles oa the other aide the Boers
Jmve also a camp. Vary good. Now I
need net point out to you Africa
la like a bln of gunpowder and that it
needs only a spark to set It afliu. Here
la where that spark can be struck.'
Ha put hla finger upon the map. “Just
aa this point, over the line, la the term
ef a Boer named Zwager. He is an old
Dutch rhinoceros, ready enough for
trouble. It would be very easy for any
one who went there—any one who was
rather wild and Irresponsible—to pre
cipitate a quarrel. H would not need
extreme measures — a mere quarrel,
with perhaps a little mlsusage, and the
Boers there in camp would do tho root,
ter they would attack the border police
as certainly as we ait here. After that
some history would probably be made.”
Young Phillips whistled thoughtfully.
“It's rather too rich for ua,” he said,
“and net the nicest Job, especially see

In the glow of the great Idea, and at
he spoke there breathed out of thli
man something mysterious and wou
derful, as out of unfathomed depths, a
spirit which could stiffen the hoarts ot
other men and drive them forward
reckless of barriers. Young Phillipt
gated at him, and the cold susplcloc
melted out of his face.
“1 guess, maybe,” said be slowly
“that, after all, I am a wild young

The leader smiled. “I thought so,"

“Such men,” be remarked, “don’t do

“Oh, I guess,” replied Phillips, “that
If Burton and I can put this through
we can trust you for the rest of It”
The big man glanced at the other

showed tbelr appreciation of bow Phil
lips bad risen to his chance. “Always

shook hands A moment later Ather

remarked. “People up home display In

“That** sight,” somebody said. “Wlsl

MJIBVft deliberately, as one who does no;

uneasy stir among the men around him
for it was to these he spoke. “The ulg

out to you these trifling facts and ask
y*u, ’Why is a war like that wrong?’ "
The patent medicine man bad stood
appalled, with hla mouth wide open,
during, this speech. He staggered back

went down with all on board. Rotling
upon the plain, he hurled up at

cine man. who was now sober If not
sensible, w’lahed to go with then), but
this offer was rejected. They rode to a
little eminence and stopped. They were
on the border line, the danger Ut>«-
wblch needed only to be crossed by
fighting parties to mean a war. A sol
itary fnlcon hovered high in the untar
nished blue, and befors them stretched
the Tnmavnal, Its veldt as yellow as a
sea of gold. Old Zwager's farm lay
like a dot In this, and over everything a
Sabbath quiet brooded, but here the
spark could be struck which should set
South Africa afire. They felt the de
light of power, a sense of danger and
daring leaped In their blood, and they
rode straight forward resolutely.
Zwager’s place was built up in a way
usual jo that region. A stone wall eu-
cfrcledTbe squatty Dutch buildings
and served to keep the calves in the
front dooryard. A fence might have
been easier, but Zwager’s great-grand
fathers had managed It this way, and
what had been good enoegh for them
was good enough for Zwager. They
were admitted througb the gate by a
lazy Kaffir boy and, riding up to the
house, beheld the owner.
Before the door la the sunshine sat
an old and grizzled Boer—a Boer of the
great trek. He stared at them for a
moment silently and then again turned
his dull blue eyee upon the distant
view. But after some reflection he
removed his pipe and asked them brief
ly, “What do you want?"
“We want some forage for our horses
first thing.’* Burton replied, and the
two dismounted. Zwager retlect%l
some more ami then announced. "You
can’t have It.”
“Ota, we can't, eh?” remarked Phil
lips. “Maybe that Isn't for yon to
say.” The correction appeared to be
lost upon old Zwager. He sat still and
gazed across the plain toward tbe blue
northward as though be expected
something favorable to come from that
direction. For years and years tbe
older Boers had been wont to tblnk of
that free up country, tbe nntracked
wilderness which could always be tbelr
refuge when the annoy tug uproar ef a
rapid civilization came too near. But
nothing could come out of It now ez
cept danger, and they were cut off
from It forever as surely as from tbe
blue sea across which their foRtaLhexa
had \vati<]erF<l two centuries before for

THE COUNTY.
8UPHRINTENDBN T8.
They Have Organised tor the Pur
pose of Being instructed in Su
pervision.
At the suggestiou.of Mr. E. B. Wal
lace,' superintendent of education for
liichlaud County, the county superin-
tendents attending the State summer
school for teachers, held a meeting sod
organized themselves into a body to be
known as The County Superintendents’
Department of thp Stale summer
school. Subsequently another meeting
was held, a constitution was adopted,
and officers elected. On Monday, the
8th inst. a third meetiog was held. On
this occasion Supt. McMahan, Prof. li.
Means Davis, Mr. Hand and Prof .'Pat
terson Wardlaw delivered addresses,
commendatory of the purpose of the
department, and laudatory of those
county superintendents who had made
it their business to attend the State
summer school, and exert themselves
to become fit supervisors. The meet
mg was a great success, and all parties
felt that the presence of so progressive
a spirit among the county superintend
ents foretells better things for our ru
ral schools.
\ The addresses, however, were not
tbe feature of this meeting. The real
purpose of the organizatiou is to obtain
more ejepest supervision m the coun
ties by having the present superintend
ents io perfect their work of supervis
ion. Ta this end, regular attendance
at the summer school uuder ir-structors
teaching supervision is deemed advis
able.
When the other superintendents
catch step with the onward stride of
these, he^e attv tiding, there will surely
be better times in the schools of South
Carolina, and then there may be found
within the limits of the respective
counties, super visors expert enough to
become the educational leaders of their
communities.
The following resolutions, the plat
form of tbe mme progressive county
■upenutendents, wui show clearly this
spirit :

THE NBCRQ NOT DYING OUT
The Facts Shown by the Census
Statistics About to be Made
Public ' ’
The. Mew York Evening Post says
the ubulatiou of population by sox,
nativity nud color, Uuder the census oi
1U00, has now proceeded far enough
i.o show that the negro is numerically
holding his own. Those who predicted
that because of essential inferiority the
negro would die out as a ^race find no
support in the returns of 11)00. The
negro is running along so closely with
the while, whenever the flarures have
been tabulated, as to indicate that, for
better ot for worse, he has gained a
firm foothold on this continent, and
one from which h% is not likely to be
soon dislodged.
From the figures at hand it seems
probable that the negro population of
the United States in 1‘JOO was between
9,000,000 and 9,050,000. The ratio
that the negro bears to the total in the
States already counted, if applied to
the whole country, would give 9 025 -
000, excluding Indian Territory, where
perhaps there are 15,000 more. If
that estimate be admitted as valid it
will make the negro constitute 11.8
per cent, of the total population of tlie
country, as against 11.9 a decade ago
the loss being due to the greater growth
of the Northern States and not to any
less proportion of negroes in the South
The only weakness of such an esti
mate comes from the fact that no
wholly typical border State has yet
been analyzed, and it is in the border
States that the pecuhai developments
of colored population are most in evi
dence. Ten years ago the negro ap*
peared to be leaving the bord r Stales
to go in both directions—towards tbe
cotton fields of the far South and to
the large ciUea of tbe North. Ken
tucky, for example, actually lost in ne-
K ° population between 1S90 and 1900.
There were only four other States of
*hich this was true—Marne, New
Hampshire, Vermuni and Wisconsin—
ami in each of these the colored popu
lation was se small os to make any .le-
ductiooe from the figures concerning it
of little meaning. Hat in all tbe toir-
der Sute region the negro seemed to

sort, and seeing many families whoee
appearance is so on the bokier-hiie
that it is impossible to tell to which
trade they belong. It is among such
people that the task of census enumer
ation is very difikult. Unless the enu
merator, from his neighborhood ac
quaintance, knows a fanily and its his
tory, and records them in accordance
with that knowledge, t^e might have to
the question of race, and if per
chance he put it to a white family his
hasty retreat Irom the room might be
soon necessary. ItJs thought that this
perhaps interfered with the full negro
count ten years ago, when all these de
grees were required. It was so much
eksier for an enumerator in doubt to
enter “white,” which required no
qualification, than to enter “negro,”
and then begin questioning as to the
degrees, that the benefit of the doubt
may have been given in more cases
than was deserved.
Booker Washington has said that the
negro is staying on the farms and has
always ^advised him to continue to do
so. As a matter of fact, from this cen
sus, it appears that the negro is going
to the cities just as fast as the white
race. Quite as large a percentage of
the negro population of any Suite as
of I he white is found in towns of more
than 2,500 people.

Defense.
The popular idea expn
phrase, "the art of self-nefense,” shows
the opinion that the chief enemies a man
has to defend himself from are visible
and external. But the real danger of
every man is from minute and oftep in
visible foes. In the air we breathe and
the water we drink are countless minute
organisms leagued against the health of
the body.
The one defense against these enemies
is to keep the blood pure. Dr. FTerce’a
Golden Medical Discovery thoroughly
purifies the' blood, removing poisonous
substance* and accretions. When the
blood is pure there is no harborage for.
the germs of disease which find a lodg
ing only when the blood is impure and
corrupt.
