"We feel that an apology is due," explains the editor of the "Spiketown Blizzard," "to the estimable young woman ' who teaches at the school house in District No. 5. Through the wretched blunder of a worthless tramp printer, whom we ! trusted with the setting up of an item just as we were closing the forms for our last week's edition, we were made to say that 1 'Miss Ruby McConnell, the handsome and 1 popular teacher in the Riggs neighborhood, is the proud possessor of an elegant new black beard.' We wrote 'blackboard.'" ?Chicago Tribune. Rare Inducements in Coffins. A Baltimore business house has received from a far Southern merchant a letter of inquiry respecting the Baltimore dealer's line of goods. In the letter was inclosed a circular seriously setting forth me virtues 01 an arucie ior saie anu evidently sent as a voucher of the merchant's trustworthiness. The circular read as follows: " "A few words to the public about coffins. Those who think of dying within the next twelve months would do well to consult me about their coffin. I make and sell coffins of all kinds and sizes at most reasonable rates and deliver them U> the house free of drayage. Orders from merchants, planters and . limited companies accepted and promptly attended to." Then followed the name and words, "blacksmith, wheelright and undertaking establishment." Modern Sermons. The truly modern preacher Discusses every fad That comes to public notice, If it be good or bad. He speaks with graceful accent On "Should Our Hair Be Dyed," & Or tells his congregation "The Proper Way to Ride." J ? He wails "The Curse of Checkers," Or "Why We Leave the Farm;" But none has used the topic, "Turn In a Fire Alarm." ^ He talks on "Modern Writers," Or "Can Our Votes Be Bought," And sometimes he's just lovely On "Thoughtlessness of Thought." Some day an innovation Will suddenly be sprungSome conscientious preacher PWill turn his silver tongue To words of hope and heaven, And grace his voice will fill, And we'll get more religion And less of vaudeville. ?John Wink in Baltimore American.

Referring to the pending contest i> between Tillman and himself, Senator e McLanrin expressed himself as beiug enk tirely satisfied with the present status of - affairs. "I am happy and good-natured, c in spite of the disagreeable remarks made i about me by my enemies. As I came on to Washington I was surprised to hud the people along the route, at the various stall tions, prepared to give me a friendly i> greeting. At Honea Path, Belton and ] other points, where none but farmers res side, there were several hundred people 5 at the station to greet me and wish me i success in the light I am making. This - p kpular outpouring convinces me that 1 heed not depend on the manufacturers i anil the financiers of the State for support r in the battle 1 am waging for the best in1 tcrests of the entire State, without regard . to occupation or social standing." D IMS VIEWS OF MR. BRYAN, c The Senator was ready and anxious tc talk about his rebuke to Mr. Bryan for I, meddling in South Carolina jwlitics. "1 am more a Democrat than Mr. Bryan and e I proved it when we served together in - Congress. I voted with all of the old-time r Democrats for Crisp, of Georgia, foi Speaker, while Mr. Bryan ran off with the Mugwumps on the ground that he could not afford to vote for a man who e had served in the Confederate army. As a Democrat I know a good many things 1 which would not be well for me to dis cuss. I would not have mentioned the 1 Bryan incident but for the fact that Mr * Bryan, as the self-constituted leader ol the Democratic party, saw fit to intrude himself into the controversy Senator Tillman and myself are having about purely y State affairs. A meddler seldom proves - to be a welcome guest at any hearthstone, s So, because of his olficiousness, Mr. Bryan f will have to take his medicine as a third - party in a family quarrel. I am not goe ing to wash any Democratic dirty linen at this time." t NO "FOREIGN INTERFERENCE." Continuiug, Senator McLaurin, with 1 considerable vim and positiveness, said : i "But I want it known to the people ol r South Carolina, and the people ol the South generally, what kind of a x Democrat Mr. Bryan is. This is a family row between Senator Tillman and mysell - over local questions, and the people ol ^ South Carolina are the jury. Mr. Bryan's t interference was gratuitous and unfortu nate for him, for Senator Tillman is capable of taking care of himself and ^ I hope I am able to protect my owe . interests without any foreign inter.1 ference. The people of the South lovec " Mr. Crisp, and he was honored and respected by the people of the Nortl I and West, and it will not help th< future political prospects of Mr. Bry an, if he has any, to have it known thai he was afraid to vote for Mr. Crisp foj k Speaker of the House of Representative; ), through fear that the Populist voters o: k Nebraska would resent his voting for i man who had served in the Confederal army. This is all I have to say at presen regarding Mr. Bryan." d Senator McLaurin says he has no re ^ grets to offer for the course he has takei 1 at home and he is prepared to abide thi it result whatever it may be. He says hi *t differs with Senator Tillman honestly 01 many national issues, and also with thi p old moss>?acks of South Carolina, wh< are standing in the way of their progres: a and advancement. could endure abuse no longer. s He bore in silence as long as he couh | the abuse and vituperation heaped upoi him until human nature and manhoot e* could endure it no longer.

One of the significant passages betweer e them in the Gaffney debate was wher h McLaurin said: Ile'talks about me and says I stole Van Dyke's sermon." Th< only charge that he has been able to bring i_ against me is that I stole a sermon." e Then turning around and taking a step e or two, face to face with Tillman ant ^ pointing his linger at him, he said witl 3 feeling and emphasis: "You, sir, if charges be true, hav< '* stolen things of more intrinsic valu< than sermons." >S In view of the MeLaurin-Tillman figh r. and the changing lines of democracy, i e is interesting to note some of the main u points under discussion, o In 1SD2, the alliance instructed its con gressmen to independence. McLaurir claims he has a right to independent ac ,r tion on national matters affecting tin 0 whole country. Senator Morgan, of Ala 1 bama claims and exercises also this righi in the senate. y In 1 Sjr2 the southern leaders revolted y and attacked the democracy of Cleveland ' There seems to be the same kind on now The democratic party stood for the re peal of the tax on State'banks.

A curious story comes from North Carolina, which is, however, vouched for by a reliable citizen and is here given for a fact on that responsibility. Mr. and Mrs. John F. Belk, residing in North Carolina, 150 miles from here, are the parents of sixteen children, all of t whom are normal and like any other . children, save one. This one, Miss Dosie . Belk, is now 24 years of age, and in all . these years has never spoken to her father, j With other members of the family she is pleasant, kind, and talks as freely as do . they, but if asked a question or spoken I to by her father, she is dumb, and always l has been, since birth. What the reason may be for this she is unable to tell, as I are her brothers and sisters. She simply I cannot speak to him, and though she ( hears and obeys him, she has to use others , as a medium of conversation with him. This has been a source of great grief and t worry to Mr. Belk, but it is inexplicable r by him and by all who have investigated i the matter, among the latter being learnf ed physicians. The theory of intense natural aversion, such as renders some men a or women paralyzed at the sight of a ^ snake, or spider, or mouse, or toad, * or any other one particular object, may account for it, but the reason is as far off as ever if such hypothesis be accepted.? a Danville Register.

"Something New Under the Sun." , All doctors have tried to cure catarrh by the use of powders, acid gases, inhalers and drugs in paste form.

Beaufokt, June 0.?Two rather mysterious deaths occurred in the artillery garrison at Fort Fremont, near here within the j>ast two days. Yesterday W. E. Wright, of Indiana, who was connected with the hospital corps, died very suddenly and this morning Emmit W. Easterling, who served as clerk at the post headquarters, was suddenly stricken down and died in convulsions almost immediately afterwards. Both men had imbibed very freely of the miserable liquor sold in the vicinity of the post and there are rumors of foul play which will be thoroughly investigated by the authorities at the fort. Wright is a son of one of the wealthiest department store men in Indiana and his term of enlistment expired about a month ago, at which time he was strongly advised by his friends to abandon the army and return to his native State, where his prospects were exceptionally bright, hut the youug soldier refused to heed this advice and re-enlisted for a term of four years.

Both the dead soldiers were brought here and interred in the National military cemetery, in the suburbs of the town.

"One of the many laughable incidents of a more or less recent tour in the west," said dear old Joe Jefferson, "took place at Gray's End, Mo. You probably don't know the place, and couldn't find it oil the man. All the same, the people thereabout are" very good friends of mine, and, what is more, invariably make an eminently respectable showing at the box office, which increases my regard for them. Now, the opera house at the 'End' began life as a big barn. As is the custom in that section of the State, the building is raised on pillars, some three or four feet. This, in its barn-days, was to prevent its contents from being harmed during the annual spring overflow of the adjacent river.

Finally I appealed to the sheriff of the county, a very excellent person, who, I verily believe, slept with a small arsenal buckled around him.

In the midst of one of the most pathetic situations in this scene there came from beneath the theatre the strident squeals j of razor-back hoes fighting for a choice I morsel. The audience tittered.

A few seconds later there came a untitled bang! bang! hang! followed by the agonized howls of the wounded pigs. I stopped. I just had to. Fortunately Hie spectators did not laugh. It was a familiar sound to them, and they remained impassive. The sheriff reappeared, and then the play ran its course without further intr rruption. We had fresh pork chops for breakfast next day, but I'll never forget that night."?Success. . < Stops the Cough and Works off the Cold. J Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets cure j a cold in one day.
