The Rev. Sam P. Jones suggests that it
would do Tillman good to be defeated
two or three times. We suggest to the
reverend Sam that he come over and
tackle the job. Wouldn't a campaign between
Sam and Ben be a great affair ?
Dr. James H. Carlisle has consented to
f
remain with Wofford College as president
for another year. This will be delightful
news, not only to the Methodists
of South Carolina, but to ail good people
who desire the best type of citizenship
developed in a college training.
We notice that there is to be an effort
made to keep McLaurin out of the primary
next summer. Col. Wilie Jones,
State chairman, says there is only one
McLaurin man on the State executive
committee, seeming to argue from this
that the committee will be unfriendly to
the Senator. Mr. Jones should not attempt
to speak for the committee. We
believe McLaurin will get fair treatment,
even if Mr. Jones is a candidate.
If this high-handed attempt to keep
McLaurin out of the primary next summer
succeeds, the leaders who are engine

disrupted the Democratic party. It is a
confession of weakness on their part and
shows that they are afraid to let McLaurin
come before the people of South Caro
lina. The scheme is said to have the approval
of Tillman, and, mind you, only a
few weeks ago he wanted to go into a
Democratic primary with McLaurin.
Their sole idea now is to keep McLaurin
from presenting his views to the voters.
In last week's issue of the Barnwell
Sentinel, the announcement is made by
Mr. Clarence L. Brown, who has managed
the paper for several years, that it
will be discontinued. However. Mr.
Brown will start another paper soon, but
under what name is not announced. If
Bro. Brown will allow us to suggest, we
would keep the name of "Sentinel." That
paper has been in existence for manyyears
and is so linked with the history of
Barnwell county that it seems a pity to
discard it. There's something in a name
after all, sometimes. Trot
'em Out.
A few weeks since our esteemed contemporary,
The Bamberg Herald, gave notice
that Bamberg had some magnificent
political timber, and intimated that that
county would undoubtedly be heard from
when the thundering of guns commences
next year. Trot out your horses, Brother
Knight.?Barnwell Sentinel.
Too early, yet brother; too early. The
race hasn't started yet.

Wedding at Estelle.
On Sunday morning, June 9th, at 9:30
o'clock, at the home of the bride, Rev.
John Morrison made fast the golden knot,
that bound two happy hearts together.
To the strains of the wedding march,
Miss Laura Johnson and Mr. John Peeples
entered the handsomely decorated
parlor and while around them floated the
soft, sweet notes of the "Flower Song"
rendered by Miss Annye Moye, of Bam
Derg, tney piigntea tne sacrea vows, n
was an ideal home wedding, not one
characterized by chilling conventionalities
and stately grandeur, but endowed
with all the enchanting influences of love.
Methinks, cupid, the little queen of heartssat
upon her throne "'neath the bower of
foliage and foam of flowers" and witnessed
the scene with gratified j^gasure.
Miss Johnson was ed^Rfeoat the
Classical Institute in Bamberg and
there made a circle ofwho will
rejoice with herinjK^iew found happiness
^fc^-ifever looked more like the
" "stately flower" that Tennyson compares
perfect womanhood to, than when gowned
in her bridal robes of light grey London
silk, trimmed in white satin, sequin
and velvet applique; while her hat of
chiffon and velvet roses enhanced the
face beneath it.
After the ceremony the bridal party
attended church at Lawtonville, returning
home to partake of a most elegant
dinner at late noon.
The numerous and useful presents were
of themselves a handsome decoration.
Mr. Peeples lives near Estelle and is a
young man of promise.
We wish for them much happiness.

Wreck on the Seaboard.
IIamlet, N. C., June IT.?Last night
about 10 o'clock the northbound Seaboard
Air Line Atlanta special turned
broadside off a trestle into a pond, about
a mile north of Rockingham,
i There were on board about 25 or SO
| passengers, all of whom were more or less
! injured, several very seriously, and two.
j a white man and a negro, probably fatally.
There were three ladies and some children
aboard, none of whom were seriously
hurt.
The engine and two mail cars passed
over in safety but the combination baggage
and second, first and two Pullman's
turned over. On account of the rains
the piers of the trestles gave way on the
I mo- owl** At tl><> first, rrnsli nil liirhts
went out and water rushed in waist deep
through the windows. Baggagemaster
Smith, though seriously hurt himself, at
once thought of the freight following
close behind. He crawled out, and seizing
a lantern, hobbled down the track and
flagged the freight, thereby preventing a
second catastrophe. When the freight
stopped he was lying on the ground unable
to raise, but still waving his lantern.
He fell time and again before he succeeded
in getting far enough back to flag the
train. He had to be carried back on a
stretcher.
The newsboy also did heroic work,
crawling through the the cars helping the
almost drowned passengers to escape
through the transoms over a door.
A relief train came from Hamlet with
doctors, and another from Rockingham.
The hotel here is being used as a temporary
hospital.

say that relief came as soon as I began its
use and a complete cure speedily followed."

Senator McLanrln at Work.
Washington, D. C., June 17.?Senator
McLaurin was here to-day, on his way
back to Bennettsville from New York.
He did not discuss the political situation
in South Carolina, but said his principal
business here is in connection with the
Charleston Exposition. Having entered
heartily into that work he does not intend
to spare any effort on his part to
get the Government exhibit now on view
at Buffalo for the Charleston Exposition.
On his way to New York he stopped in
Philadelphia and had a conference with
the directors of the Commercial Musieum,
which contains duplicates of a large number
of the foreign exhibits imported expressly
for the Buffalo Exposition.
Under a special Act of Congress these
foreign exhibits were permitted to come
in under bond without the payment ol
duty, with the understanding that the)
were for exhibition purposes only. An cf
fort has been made to have a number ol
these foreign exhibits transferred te
Charleston. It appears that, according t<
the ruling of the treasury officials, thesi
exhibits are admitted to this country dut]
free for Buffalo alone. If they are movei
elsewhere, either for exhibit or for sale
they will be required to pay the full duty
? - <1
Under tlie circumstances oeuiuui na wu
rin does not believe it wise to take chance;
of subjecting the Charleston Expositioi
to the duty on these goods when dupli
cates of them can be obtained from tin
Philadelphia Museum. The directors o
the latter institution in their conferenc<
with Senator McLaurin very generously
offered to lend Charleston as much of it:
foreign display as the promoters of th<
Charleston enterprise may desire to utilizi
Negotiations with a view of carrying ow
this idea are under way and Senator Mc
Laurin believes the result will be equally
satisfactory without incurring additiona
expense.

V
WILD BILL'S FIRST BATTLE.
Story or the Most Remarkable Conflict
in Border Annals.
Forty years ago, in December, ten men
on bay horses galloped across the dry bed
of Rock Creek, skirted a little clump of
cotton woods, and drew rein before the
bars of the Overland Stage Company's
horse corral 011 the California trail a few
miles north of Manhattan. Bill McKandlas,
jumping from his horse, put his
hand on the top bar. A tall, slender young
man stepped to the door of the dugout a
few yards away with a gun in his hand
and eyed the McKandlas gang with dark
disfavor. He called out with some emphasis
that he would shoot the first man
who took down a bar and made some
comments 011 their parentage.
A few hours before they had gone by
his quarters jerking an old preacher at
the end of a lariat. As they passed they
announced that they would come back
for the stage horse in the corral at three
o'clock in the afternoon. The young
man with the gun had replied that he
would be there when they came back.
He was paid to feed, harness, and protect
the company's property and intended to
earn his money. The ten visiting gentlemen
tied their horses to the corral, and
turned to the more cheerful duty of exterminating
the imprudent and forward
young watchman. He retired into his
dug-out domicile, barred the door, and
stood waiting with a rifle in his hand.
Even then he had the habit of not shooting
until the occasion really demanded
it. The highwaymen hunted up a log
from the cottonwoods, and with praisewortliy
industry proceeded to batter down
the door. Jim McLandlas, with a revolver,
a bowie-knife, a whoop, and a yell leaped
across the threshold and into eternity.
As the others rushed through the door the
man inside tired three shots, with that accuracy
of aim for which he was so much
admired in the years that were to come.
The six somewhat startled horse thieves
who remained alive swarmed across the
dug-out floor, and piled upon the young
station keeper with revolvers and bowieknives.
One beat him over the head with
a gun, and Bill McKandlas struck with a
bowie knife, only to bury it in the table,
and with a bulletin his heart,to suddenly
terminate a career which had furnished
an infinite variety of interest for the
sheriffs and vigilants of several counties.
The rusty stove fell from its insecure
foundation across the surging combatants
mixed in inextricable and sanguinary
confusion. Outside a horse broke his
hitching strap and galloped away. The
little table broke down beneath the weight
of a thousand pounds of shooting, stabbing,
swearing frontiersmen. The fattest
bandit rolled toward the door, and
: catching a glimpse of the brown prairies
' outside, which looked good to him, sud*
denly reached the conclusion that he did
' not really need any stage company horses
in his business and bolted,
f By this time the affair had ceased to
> have for the other four horse fanciers that
> enticing interest which had drawn them
* J
- into it. As lie afterwards expresseu u,
' the young man in charge of the stage
1 station had "gone wild." Covered with
> wounds and freckled with bullet holes he
? had lost every thought and instinct except
- the lust of death and victory. As they
5 fought lie struck the sixth man in the
1 throat with the bowic, and the man fell
- across the little pile of blankets. The
2 three who were now on their feet retreatf
ed through the door and toward their
2 horses, their host staggering after them
7 with the gleam of battle still in his blue
s eye. That morning his associate in the
2 company's service had gone hunting, to
2 return on the run barely in time to witness
t the close of the tragedy. Doc Mills, the
- associate, had lost a golden opportunity.
ir While he was out shooting quail Fame
1 had knocked at the dug-out door, handed
laurels to James Butler Hickok, and passedon.
Hickok wrested the gun from
1 Mill's sliand, and killed another of his flee1
ing foes before they were fifty yards away.
2 One, badly wounded, sped down the lit\
tie creek, found his way to Manhattan
[ and died within two days. The ninth
* more fortunate, mounted a horse, and,
- followed the fat deserter across the prairie.
| When the stage from the East came
I rumbling in, half an hour later, they
found this hero of the most savage and
the most remarkable conflict in border
annals insensible and at the point of
" death." '"-The floor of his dug-out looked

"Something New Umlcr the Sun." *
All doctors have tried to cure catarrh
l>y the use of powders, acid gases, in
lialers and drugs in paste form. Their
powders dry up the iniieuous membranes

The cross-examiner was a smart man,
whose object was to disconcert the witness
and discredit his testimony.
"What did you say your name was?"
was the first question.
"Michael Doherity."
"Michael Doherity, eh? Now, Doherity
answer this question carefully, are you a
manicu man:
"Oi think so. Oi was married."
"So you think because you got married
that you are a married man, do you? Now,
tell me whom you married?"
"Who Oi married V I married a woman."
"Now, don't you know better than to
trifle with the court? Of course you
married a woman; did you ever hear of
any one manying a man?"
"Yes, moi sister did."?London Sparc

Deafness Cannot be Cnred
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies,
Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the eustachian
tube. When this tube gets inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
lube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
eases out of ten arc caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Ilall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

The Rev. Sam P. Jones makes a suggestion
in which we arc glad to concur.
In discussing the now passe Tillnian-McLaurin
episode, lie says: "There are
many things about Tillman I admire. He
is a game duck, and talks right out everywhere.
I do not admire his politics. He
is a cross between a Pop and a Democrat
and some other ingredients less desirable.
McLaurin may not be so game, but I like
his politics the better of the two. If Ren
Tillman could be defeated two or three
times and then be elected again, it might
do him good. Ren is too game, sometimes."
There is milch merit in this and coming
from a professed admirer Ren's friends
should heed the suggestion. It would
undoubtedly do Ben good to be defeated
two or three times. We are sure bf it
and then Sam Jones savs so. We call 011
all of Ben's true friends to turn in and
help us beat him the verj' next chance
that offers?and the next. After several
real hard drubbings Ben may become
rather tolerable.?The State.

attack of whooping cough and bronchitis,"
writes Mrs. W. K. flaviland, of

who had consumption in an advanced

Too Much For Him.
A would-be smart commercial traveler
on an English train the other day, thinking
to tease a salvation army girl, asked
her if she believed the story of Jonah and
the whale.
"I don't know," she said, "but when I
get to heaven I'll ask Jonah if it occurred."
"But," said the funny man, "supposing
