NOVEMBJtR 14, 1P12 A REM1NISCKNCK OF 1H7«. Tba preaenea In town laat week of Rou. Daniel S. Henderaon of Aiken, oouplad with the propoaed reunion to- day of the aurvlrara of the Wallni-e Hoaaa, brought ylvldly to our remem brance the great part ao well acted by Col. Henderaon In the campaign of 1H7:i which made the existence of the Wa 1 - laoe Houae a reality Col. Henderaon waa then a young lawyer juat oommenclng the lumlnon* career that hat, by hW great ahlllty. tlreleaa knduatry, high character and patriotic purpoae, brought him to a feremoet place among the advocatea of South Carolina, In the campaign of 1876 he waa County Chairman of the Aiken Democracy and that he might gtye all hla energlea to the duties and requirement* of that petition he, with rare unaHflahneaa, deJir.ed a nomina tion for the Houae of Representatives. Had he accepted he would have bean a member of the Wallace House. Late in the Fall of 187> the wilter, then Hying In WIHUton, received a letter from Col, H eriderson, asking that he and Capt. John I>. Browne come to Aiken Immediately. Ihey went ou tba next (night) train and found Col. Henderson euff. riug from Injuries reeelyed a few dayi before while riding on horsebaek for Hamp ton and Home Kule. His plivslclan bad forbidden the admission of vUlto-s but Col. Henderson insisted upon see- log ua and we were admitted. The attending servants were sent out of the room, the door closed and <d| Henderaon took from under his pillow and fare ua a ticket to be u«ed by Re publican voters at the near coming election. Many Oemocrats through out the State had endeavored to ohraiu a Republican ticket but all bad faiW ,1 Col. Henderaon alxie succeeded. A f terward be told us that he had p.ol l&O for that one ticket It was printed with red Ink and surmounted by the cut of an eagle, while the !»• mocrstlc ticket was plainly printed with black Ink. The next morulng Mr. I.eighton Km ley. ton of Col, Henderson's law partner, Capt Brown sod the writer went to Augusta They could find no eagle cut that would answer at any of the printing offices in the dtv Ko Innately an employee of the Augusta Constitutionalist, who w.»s an ei|,*rt wood carver, expre.eed hi* sbiliiv an l willingness to make a f«c>lnii> . m from a block of bm wood He did his work admirablr and the prr«« wei quickly at work P'inti' g In rrd Ink surmounted br the regie cut th» I». m oetallc tickets headed b) M * le Hsmp- lon.

Taft, and Teddy took tbclr medicine of defeat without whimpering. They know or ought to know In their Inner oonaclenoes, If they have any, that they deserved all they got and more too. More than any other two living or dead men they are iVaponalble for present business conditions. If his tory gives them juytice they will be written of and remembered a* the two mn<t monumental humbugs that ever fooled an Intelligent nation. Tua Fkocl* never carried a better message than today In the fuller ac count of the election of Woodrow W|l- son to the Presidency bv the gresteit electoral vote ever received by any of the twenty eight great men ever chos en for that high ofll e. The new* keeps getting better. The pendulum swings to the right sgaln. THE SECOND PRIMARY. The State executive committee yes terday made oltldal declaration of the result of the primary vote taken on Tuesday for the nomination of a Dem ocratie candidate for attorney general of South Carolina. The returns having been canvassed, showed tills result: Thomas H. Peeples, 2S.4P* votes: J. h'raaer I.yon, IH7 votes. Mr. Pee- |i'c«, having a majority of the votes oust, was declared the nominee of the Democratic party in South Carolina for the offl. e, and a* such will be voted for at the general election to be held on N n vein tier 5th. Mix counties, (ireenvill-, Beaufort, Dillon, Kershaw, Lancaster and Ooonee made no returns to I he executive com- inittce, and the votes cast In these counties were nor, of course conslde'ed in the result. I nolllcUl return* show that a total of 5,120 vote* were c**t In these *lx couutie, tint the party au- Ihoriues in these counties evidently did not think It worth while to send In the haliot taken, and more than live thousand Democrats voted to no effect and were practically disfranchised by the neglect of th"*e charged w.lh the conduct of the party primary. The im l.islmi of these vies would not have had any material effect nj>on the gen eral r»• -111 r.

Romance of a Toy Pistol By WILLARD BLAKEMAN During the anto-dvlllaatlon period, when western manners were not so polished aa they are now, a man dress ed In a checkerboard suit, a derby hat and patent leather shoes entered a gambling den In Nevada and stood looking over a small game of poker. Not finding It especially Intereating, he sauntered up to the bar ftid called for a cigar. Now, the apparel of the citizens of the town consisted of a sombrero, a flannel shirt, trousers hsld up by a gartrtdge belt, to which were along usu ally two revolvers, and cowhide boots. No such costume as that worn by tha man In tbe checkerboard ault had ever been seen In that region. In tbe east, taking together the pattern of his clothes and a clean shaven face, be would have been aet down at once as an actor; In the west, where theatri cals at that time were unknown, the gentleman was a puzzle. Two men who were drinking together at the oth er end of the her began to alt up and take notice of the atranger. “What do you think It la, Jim?” said one. "Dunno, Pete. Reckon It’s one o' them baboons they bev tn dime mu seums In St Louis or Kansas City dresaed up fancy.” "Reckon we’d better find out” Tbe curloelty at that moment bad lit his clgnr and was turning sway. Pete accosted him: “Bee here, stranger, what kind of a game do they play on yon, anyway?” "Checkers,” said the smoker imper turbably. “Reckon y’ hev to lay down, don’t yr* “Oh, yea; I always He down and let ’em play on my back. It’a rather tire some, though. 1 have to He quiet or spill the checkers sod knock tbe game into pL” ‘Memo. Do yon carry a weapon un der your costtalls?" ”Ob, yes Why do you ask?” "Well. I was thtnkin' when y* hev nothin' to da y' might take off yer coat, hang It up and see how many o’ than squares y’ kin plunk. Lemma aee yer gun?” Tbe stranger put hla hand under bta coat, pulled out a revolver of dlmlnu tive sis# and handed It to tbe man — Pete—who waa firing tbe qoeatlona »t him, for examination Pete took It, laid It in the palm of hla hand aud seemed very much amused “Connin', lan t Itr be a#d “Whal’a It for?” “Well. In Kansas City, where I come from, there* aeveral of ua wear tbi* kind <>f suit*, and we all carry pUtol* like thla Whenever we meet on tb.' street we try to nee who can put the muet bullets In tbe tittle aqoare* worn by the other fellow '' Pete cocked and uncocked the pistol •eveml times, evidently much pleaeed with It. then. r*l*lng tt. pulled the trig ger and th# cfgar flew out of the check erh<>«rd mans moutk The ah<>t at tr*< ted the attention of almost even one In the pla<e. who looked up to aee who had tieen killed They saw noth Ing more warlike than the stranger calling for another cigar, lighting It and puffing away like a ferryboat. "It shoots all right.” said Pete, and In a moment there waa another shot, and the second cigar spun around In the air and fell on th* floor somewhat shattered ".Now that you aee how It shoot* 1 wouldn't do that any more," said th# checkerboard man "It lan't worth w Idle " He railed for a third t Igar and while lighting It added “If you're t>ound to try It another time t>etter do It at longer range. Anything'll shoot straight clone up.” At the first remark Petes brow dark ened. At the second It cleared again "All tight; you go to the other aud o' the bar and I'll aland at thla end " "Done.” said the atranger, and he walked alowiy toward the designated place, hi* back laing eiioeed to the man with the platol The Inmates of the saloon watched for the result of this singular trial of the efficiency of whnt they called a toy gun Tbe "target” walked with tbe cigar in hi* mouth, while Pete held the pistol ready to fli^-as aoon as he should turn As be was about to swing round tbe stranger put bis baud to the back of bis neck. When he waa half A turned there waa a crack, and the cigar followed Its predecessors. But almost on the same Instant, the checkerboard man having faced Pets, hla hand flew •ut from the back of hla neck, some thing glittered along a Hoe parallel with the bar, and Pete sank on the floor. Jim bent over him and pulled a ten inch knife blade out of hla left breast. This was a novelty at weapon prac tice In the place, and no one interfered with the checkerboard man as be quiet ly walked out of the saloon. "By gum," exclaimed one, "that wa? the slickest thing I ever saw done.” “Who is her’ "Dunno.” Tba same afternoon several wagons containing tbe performers and para phernalia of a show came into town, and at the first performance the man of the checkerboard suit In spangled lights Inclosed one of the troupe with a line of knives stuck In a board. The former Wak/a knife thrower. Had he been a shooter Instead soma one might have resented his teaching tbe dtlxens of the place manners, but they £ere not used to knives operated at g distance, so they let him alone.
