It is said that Jim Tillman's attorneys will not apply for bail for him. Possibly they are of the opinion that it would be refused. * * * It is highly probable that C. A. Woods, of Marion, will be elected Associate Justice by the General Assembly. He is said to be a fine man and well qualified for the position. * * * - Governor Heyward, we salute you. You made a phenomenal race for governor, and you are going to make an admirable chief executive. Your inaugural address breathes the very sincerity of your purpose to serve South Carolina nobly and well. * * * That fellow who offered a bill in the Senate requiring the railroads to transport all State and county officers free must be a rare specimen of humanity. That such an one should be elected Senator is surprising. His measure was summarily disposed of, however. * * While some foolish bills haye been offered in the legislature, some important measures have been introduced, which the general assembly will do well to enact into laws. It is to be hoped our legislators will devise some means for the enforcement of the laws enacted as well as many of those now on the statute books. v Mr. T. Y. Williams, of Lancaster, who made the race for speaker, in the house of representatives, last Saturday made an attack on the State dispensary system. He said he had always favored the law, but he has reliable information that the r?- State dispensary authorities are using the county dispensary officials as the means iv liAn/\r faf nca olo/~*f innc IWi UlSUlUUVJUg W* in wv^w.^nn. Mr. Williams spoke in no uncerain terms of this matter, and we can now see why he was not elected speaker. He apparently is out of sympathy with the domi? nant element, and this no doubt accounts for his defeat. His charge, however, is a serious one, and should be investigated. * * * President Roosevelt is making a lot of trouble for somebody with his foolish ideas about social equality. A meeting was v held in Washington this week under the auspices of the Afro-American Council, a negro organization, at which a negro named Hayes,' a lawyer of Richmond, Va., made a most incendiary speech. The meeting is thought to be the direct result of Roosevelt's recent outbreaks on the negro question, and if the Southern negroes follow the advice .given them by Hayes there will be lots of serious trouble. He advised the negroes in the South to resort to the sword and the torch to right their 0 * wrongs, and made the significant statement that no two races speaking the same tongue and having the same religion had ever been kept apart. This will never be^^^||ome a reality in the South or anywhere els&Jvand the sooner the negroes underi " standYhis fact the better off they will be. There is just -a^jnuch showing in the South for honest, industridtrs-iiegCQg^s anywhere under the sun, but social equW ity and mixing of the races is not to be thought of. Legislative Doings. A little interest was taken in the house of representatives last Saturday over a bill, introduced by a Mr. Holman, of Aiken, to permit county dispensers to be elected by tbe people, some spicy debate was had, but the bill was killed by *? - a vote of 78 to 24. A bill has been introduced amending the law regarding chicken fights. The law now prohibits fights within three miles of a school, and the bill provided that they should also be unlawful within three miles of a church. An amendment was added, making chicken fighting unlawful anywhere in the State, and the bill passed a second reading. It will likely become a law. A bill has passed second reading in the house requiring that no person shall be elected county superintendent of education unless such person shall have a cerficate of qualification to teach in the free pqhlif gphaola the Stato. ?" JNumbers of new bills have been introduced, among the most important being a bill to provide additional penalty for carrying concealed weapons; to submit to the voters in 1904 the question of a tax on dogs; to prohibit the appointment of other than freeholders as trustees of common schools; to extend the time for payment of taxes to March 1st, 1903. The house has passed a bill providing that all convicts sentenced to a term of ten years at hard labor shall serve the time on the county chain gangs. The limit is now five years. A bill to prevent the sale of dynamite for the purpose of killing fish has passed the house. A bill has been offered in the house taking the dispensary profits from the counties and giving them to the public schools. It has not been finally acted on yet. A bill has been introduced providing for a State exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition. About $30,000 is tbe amount asked to be appropriated for the exbibiLI^p res^n tati3^40^sii#^ta -i Ktrod uced a bill to regulate the traffic in seed cotton. An unfavorable report has been made on the bill to extend the time for payment of taxes until March 1st. This means that the bill will likely be killed. The formality of electing A. C. Latimer United States Senator was gone through with Tuesday. This was also the day for the election of an Associate Justice for the Supreme court. There were six candidates : C. A. Woods, of Marion; Robt. Aldricb, of Baruwell; W. B. Gruber, of Colleton; Jas. T. Izlar, of Orangeburg; James L. Tribble, of Anderson; J. F. J. Caldwell, of Newberry. Three ballots were had, but no election took place, and by mutual agreement of the friends of the candidates the joint session adjourned until Wednesday. On the last ballot the vote stood: Woods, 71; Gruber, 14; Tribble, 17; Izlar, 6; Caldwell, 13; Aldricb, 33. Necessary to a choice, 78. It will be teen from this that Mr. Woods lacked only seven votes of election. On the first ballot he received 64 votes, against 31 for the next highest man, Robert Aldricb.

SPAUTANBlJRli, January 20.?The base ball squad is hard at work practicing in the gymnasium. About thirty-live nu n are taking the exercise daily, a large percentage of whom are living with the hope of "making the varsity team." The determination shown by the candidates for the team means that each and every man who plays on Wofford's team this season will have to be "the real article." The prospects at present are better than they have been in a number of years. To-day the* first stroke was struck by workmen who are clearing the place for our science hall. The work will go on rapidly from now until the day when "The Cleveland Science Hall" shall be declared finished. The Wofl'ord College Journal for January is out, and it is one worthy of the college it represents.

This was on last Saturday night at the regular meeting of the society. Mr. Jim Albergotti, of Orangeburg, has been on the campus for the past few days. Mr. Albergotti was a member of last year's sophomore class. Our second term begins on next Mondflv and manr now students are exnected to join our body at that time. Mr. DeMotte will be here on Wednesday night, when he will deliver his famous lecture ou "The Harp of the Senses." B. Lawiessnes at McComiick. Greenwood, January 25.?News reached here to-day of what came near being a serious riot and bloody tight at McCormick, on the Charleston and Western Carolina Railroad. The affair sounds like the days of the tights in border towns out West. It appears that some time duriug the day, Saturday, a party of young men from the country, prominent among whom was Robt. Dorn, were disturbing the peace in the town of McCorraick. Dorn was arrested and later released under a ten-dollar bond to appear before the intendant of the town. Dorn went away and a few hours later returned with a party of friends, looking for trouble. These young men proceeded to raise a rough house in McCormick without much prelude. They shot into windows and disturbed the silence and serenity of the otherwise quiet little town not a little bit. A body of citizens assembled themselves into a posse and started to arrest the disturbers. When the two parties came in conflict George Talbert, a leader of the young men, drew his gun and started to plug the leader of the posse. This he did not do, his gun only snapping. The leader of the posse at once fired and wounded Talbert in the arm. The sight of blood dismayed the disturbers and they dispersed. Talbert and young Robert Dorn were arrested, the others escaping. Young Dorn was brought through here to-day by two constables, who were carrying him to Abbeville to lodge him in the county jail. They said they had been threatened by Dorn's friends and expected that an attempt to release Dorn would have been made at Troy, but thejr were on the train and the attempt was not made. Dorn was roped and tied like a desperate criminal, although either of his two constables was a better man physically. Col. Croft is Here. Col. Croft, leading counsel for Jas. H. Tillman, is in the city, and it is supposed that he is here in reference to applying for bail for the prisoner. Whatever may be his intentions, he is keeping them to himself, and so are the other attorneys. *liom cfotoH thic mr?rnin<r that, nn VUC Ul Ultlil SliailVU HU1W general consultation had been held, and that it had not even been decided that any bail would be applied for. He did not mean to intimate, perhaps, that such a course would be pursued, though there has been a rumor current that such might be the case. But, as stated, the attorneys are doing no talking. Whenever the application is made, the solicitor will have to be given four days' notice. The application will have to be made to the judge presiding in the circuit, who happens this time to be Judge Klugh, or it may be made to the supreme court.?Columbia Record. Two Men Bitten by a Mnle. Edgefield, Jan. 25.?Mr. A. S. Jthoden ymd Mr. Marcellq# fioyaoldcrrclfizens of TTohttolMlSvk^ere^reeently bitten by a mule, said to have had hydrophobia. These gentlemen immediately went to Helmer, Ga., and had the famous Georgia madstone applied. As soon as the application was made the stone took immediate effect, which is generally accepted as full proof that the animal inflicting the wound was a victim of hydrophobia and people have absolute confidence in the efficacy and curing qualities of the madstone, a number of them having tried it with satisfactory results. The mule that bit these gentlemen was brought here for treatment and developed a genuine case of hydrophobia. AH Making Money. "I have been spending a week down at my home in South Carolina," said Senator John L. McLaurin, of that State, last evening at the Raleigh. "I am glad to be able to report the general condition as very prosperous. South Carolina is chiefly an agricultural Slate and cotton is, of course, the great croD to-day, just as it was in the ante bell urn times, when the planters produced it with slave labor. But cotton is cultivated now under labor incomparably better than it was prior to the war. Besides, we have now what never would have been possible had the old regime lasted?the factories for working up the raw material. "So at present we have a prosperous agricultural community and an industrial development that is wonderful and which gives South Carolina rank second only to Massachusetts as a manufacturer of cotton. Our farmers are getting a good price this season and every mill in the State, I believe, is making money."? Washington Post. We agree with the Baltimore American that the doctor who claims to have discovered the power of restoring life should be looked after.

Only about fifty spectators were present. and it was a verv tame affair, as the bulls refused to fight'. Some procrastinating customers of a London merchant at Christmas received cards with the usual words, "Wishingyou a Happy Christmas," printed thereon, to which the merchant had added, "and that you will settle my little account before Jau. l,so as to prevent legal proceedings!"

Some negroes from the country got drunk and came to Reevesville, and had a free light, invoh ing about a dozen or more negroes. Sheriff S. C. Varuadoe, of George's, was telegraphed for, and he, with a posse, came in on the T o'clock train, and was joined by J. P. Brothers and \V. F. Berry, of our town, and the negroes were followed to their homes last night, and twelve of the leaders were arrested and put in Dorchester jail. Sheriff Varnedoe is a man of proved courage and ability and his posse of young men, who volunteered their services, are equally commendable. Reevesville is not incorporated, and gives the people no police protection. To Core a Cold in One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets. All druggists refund money if it fails to cure. E. W.

It seems that when in office he would sometimes return home late at night, after his wife had retired and when she would ask him what time it was, would answer, "About 12," or "A little after midnight." On one occasion, after making the inquiry, she said: VAlfred, I wish you would stop that clock; I cannot sleep for its noise. All unsuspicious, he stopped the pendulum. In the morning while dressing, his wife inquired artlessly. "Oh, by the way, what time did you get home." "About midnight," replied the mayor. "Alfred look at that clock." The hands of the clock pointed at 2.30. The mayor was crushed. Heads Should Never Ache. Never endure this trouble. Use at once the remedy that stopped it for Mrs.N. A.

People in the Goverment service and in the cities generally have no conception of the value of money as fixed by those who live far away from the metropolis. There the money, figuratively, has to be "dug for," and there is a corresponding dilference in the way they si7.e up a man's exchequer. Up along the White River Valley, in Vermont, half way between the towns of Bethel and Randolph, at a beud in the road, is a watering trough almost hidden in the shadows of the trees which form a natural arch for the highway A Washington newspaper man was driving along there one day and he tells this story of his experience. "Just after I pulled up my horse at the trough a farmer came along and stopped. 'Mornin', stranger,' he said; 'how be ye?' " 'I be pretty well, I answered in the same vernacular. " 'Be ye 'quainted round here ?' "'Some,' I answered. (I knew about half the people in each of the towns.) " 'Well, maybe as how you kuow Jim Jones's folks?' "'Yes, I know'em.'

It is maintained by many distinguished writers that the greatness of a nation depends much upon the physical condition of its women. The general conditions which contribute to health and long life, are those which do not imply a rapid and unequal exhaustion of those powers by which life is maintained. While we assert that the women of our farich stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that make them lovable, we cannot hide the fact that there are thousands in our midst who, owing to overwork, worry, household cares, and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debilitated.

Concentration of I drthandisease The leading doctors say: "There are more deaths caused by drugs than . ' disease; if every one would keep his system fortified with an invigorating stimu- . , ' lant and leave drugs alone the death rate would be lowered." Statistics show that these doctors are right and this is why all leading doctors prescribe Duffy's Pure Malt- Whiskey exclusively for Consumption, Grip,-Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, Coughs, dyspepsia, malaria and all low fevers, - .nervous prostration, female troubles, sleeplessness and weakness from whatever . cause; all these diseases are caused by rundown conditions of the system. DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEY builds new tissue; it enriches and stimulates the blood, aids digestion, tones np . : the heart, invigorates the brain and strengthens the system so it throws off - disease. It kills the germs. 'Mr. and Mrs. Adam Livlngood of Elverson, Pa., who have been married 65 years, say Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has prolonged their happy union many years -y. beyond their silver wedding. Mr. Uvingood is 91 years old and his wife is 84. v They are both bale and hearty and feel vigorous as a couple 50 years of age. Mrs. Matilda Watts, who is 63 years of age, says Duffy's Pure Malt Whisaey . cured her of grip and has kept her strong and well. "I suffered terribly with the grip and and tried every known remedy. Changes . of weather always found me in bed, and I often felt as if life was not worth the living. Picking up a newspaper one day. I read of the great benefit derived from the use of Duffy's Malt Whiskey and sent for a bottle. The beneficial effects were almost Instantaneous. The terrible lassitude with which I had suffered so long disappeared. I was completely cured and have felt no bad after effects, and to-day, at the age of 63, I feel as though I was only 30. v . '*-3. Mrs. Matilda Watts, 254 W. 40th St. N. Y. C." New York's leading doctor said: "Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is food-already % digested." . v If you wish to keep young, strong and vigorous and have on your cheek the glow of perfect health, take DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEY, regularly, a table- .r spoonful in half a glass of water or milk three times a day and take no other , . medicine. It is dangerous to fill your system with drugs; they poison the system and depress the heart. "Duffy's" is an* absolutely pure stimulant and tonic, free $ from fusel oil and other dangerous ingredients so common in malt whiskeys. , >-<. ..
