I Thursday, May 5, 1904
It is up to Aiken to make good in the
primary this summer.
Altogether the proceedings of the county
convention were most plesant. "While
there were differences of opinion on
certain matters, the debate was characterized
by fairness and courtesy.
Some of the voters of the second district
are worried over Mr. Croft's views
on the tariff question. They may rest
easy. Mr. Croft's views on any question
will not amount to anything so far as
congress is concerned.
* *
8enator MayfieJd may have done a wise
or a foolish thing in withdrawing from
the second race. Time will show, as he
will be a candidate for the long term this
rammer. Many of his friends strongly
id vised his withdrawing.
The second section of the child labor
aw went into effect Monday. Under the
jrovisions of the law it is now unlawful
io employ a child under 11 years of age
" ir* ontt mine fftplnnr nr textile
establishment in this State.
Bp The result of the Democratic county
Wrconventions held last Monday shows conclusively
that Hearst has no showing in
R"!;.-.' this State. Some of the counties favor
'Ife; Parker, but delegates as a rule go to the
; . i State convention uninstructed.
The county executive committee of
jar Edgefield county have deemed it technically
their duty to hold a second congresatonal
primary election, notwithstanding
\ the withdrawal of Senator Mayfield.
Bather a queer proceeding and likewise
nenlscc
gpC It is said that Williams and Patterson
? will he candidates for congress again this
fvgnmmcr. They must be possessed of a
xL," large and healthy office-holding microbe,
for surely, as sensible men, they cannot
have any hope of being elected. What
BB&lV are they running for?
Hfe-' 8ome little editors outside of the dis *:
: trict have been letting off their mouths in
regard to the recent congressional priaf^'mary.
Really it would be a good idea for
Bp7 them to look after their own districts and
let others alone. They remind us of littie
dogs barking at the moon.
The United States Senate has again failKed
to confirm the nomination of W. D.
Bp| Crum, the negro collector of the port of
Kra?; Charleston but president Roosevelt im||h
mediately reappointed him. Really Teddy
Bl& made a mistake by being born with a
iirfcite skin. He ought to have been a nepro.
#
There is no question but that Mr. L. J.
Williams found the dispensary a heavy
load in the recent primary. While he
lever stood a ghost of a chance of electon,
still his being the dispensary canditate
accounts in large measure for the
mall vote he received. The masses of the
oople are getting tired of being dictated
We trust that those -who wish to write
>r this paper on political and other
tatters of a public nature will sign their
sal names in every case. This does not
pply to news letters, of course. But we
o think that when one discusses public
latters, he should should sign his real
ame, so that the people can know how
nch importance to attach to his utteriCes.
Masonic Meeting.
Last Thursday evening Grand Master

lack, W. A. Klauber, A. W. Knight,
has. McGeiver, W. D. Rhoad, T. D.

lackville to attend a Masonic meeting
id banquet. The trip was a most enjoyle
one. A number of visiting brethren
sre present from Barnwell, Aiken, and
her points. Three Fellow Crafts were
ised to the degree of a Master Mason,
d when the craft was called from labor
refreshment the large company repairto

&artistically decorated by the ladies, the.

p|: ladies. The presence of young lady
* waiters also made the affair more delightful.
After the supper Dr. Ryan A.
I* Gyles, W. M. of Blackville lodge, in be?
half of the ladies, presented to Grand
Master Bellinger a beautiful cake. Mr.
jfc" Bellinger responded in a few graceful
Zi. words of thanks to the ladies.
The banquet was a most magnificent
Tf~- one, and the Blackville brethren "are cer /
tainly to be congratulated on the handsome
manner in which they entertained
their visitors. Personally we are under
many obligations for kindnesses and
courtesies, and we are sure every member
of the Bamberg party is likewise indebted.

WALKING IN CIRCLES.
Why People Lost In Fog or Forei
Do Not Go Straight On.
It is a matter of common knowledj
that when a man is walking blindfoli
ed or is lost in a fog or in some U]
known forest or desert instead <
walking straight he has always
tendency to work round in a circle. Tt
most commonly accepted esplanatic
of this curious fact is the slight h
gquality of a man's legs. The resu
Oi one limb being longer than tl
other will naturally be that a pe
son will unconsciously take a long(
step with the longer limb, and co:
seq Gently will trend to the right c
to the left, according as the left <
right Is trie longer, unless me xeuueiu.
to deviation is corrected by the eye.
This explanation is supported by tt
fact that in the enormous majority <
cases the human legs are proved to t
of unequal length. The careful mea
urements of a series of skeletoi
showed that no less than 90 per cei
had the lower limbs unequal in lengtl
35 per cent had the right limb long<
than the left, while in 55 per cent tt
left leg was the longer. The left k
being, therefore, more often the longe
it is to be expected that the inciin:
| tion should take place more frequent!
i to the right than to the left, and th
I conclusion Is quite borne out by ol
serrations made on a number of pe
sons when walking blindfolded.
KOREAN HOUSES.
! Tber Are Comfortable Neither 1
| Summer Nor Winter.
! The Korean style of architecture
suited to anything but an extreme cl
mate such as prevails there. Doric
the winter months it is very cold. Tt
bouses are made of bamboo fram
| work, plastered within and witboi
with adobe mud. The roof is thatch*
with rice straw, which is weath<
proof. The inside may be made In1
one room by the sliding back of
Bcreenlike partition. Just why the*
were Introduced it is impossible 1
say, for they are but rarely used, t
privacy is never desired in Kore
This open space becomes the Kvic
room, and even when travelers ai
passing along and must halt for tt
nlffht ther are invited to share a cod
mon sleeping piece on the floor wit
I the entire family. The discomfort <
such an experience Is extreme durin
the summer. In the kitchen, which
just without the living room, there !
located a moat carious kind of stov
From this clay pipes extend under tl
floor to the living room. They wan

whereby the beat could be turned o

HAIRS OF THE NETTLE,
The Rcmm They Itlas So Wbe
They Prick the Fleeh.
The stinging hairs of the com mo
nettle, which can easily be seen by tfc
naked eye, stand out under the mien
scope as rigid, transparent, tubuls
prickles, highly polished and exqu
sitely pointed. At their bases the*

discharged into the wound after tfc
sharp points have pierced the skin.
Mr. Curtis, in his "Flora,* gives thi
graphic description of the process
"Placing the foot stalk of a nettle les
on the stage of a microscope, I presse
the bulb with a blunt pin and foun
a liquid ascend in the prickle, as quid
silver does when a warm hand is aj
plied to the bulb of a thermometer,
saw the liquid ascend and flow froi
its extremity. I was the more anxiou
to see this, as I funded the poiso
might proceed from an aperture in th
side of the sting near its point, an
here it appears to be placed rathe
than quite at the end, that it may nc
take off from its necessary sharpness.
Put to the Test.
A great crowd has assembled t
cheer the boy prince Alexander on hi

do these people make so much nois
when they see me?" cried little Alea
ander. "Because they love you, my 111

sprang out of the minister's arms, cal
ing out: "They say you love me. Sho
me your love by throwing all your hat
into the water." The hats wer

How Some Medicines Are Obtainet
From the horns and bones of variou
animals may be procured by distills
tion muriate of ammonia, commonl;
used in medicines for both interna
afcd external use. From burned bone
comes phosphate of soda, so valuabl
in physic, and prussic acid, used m
dicinally as one of the most powerft]
narcotic substances, may be obtaine
from animal matter in a state of d
composition.
The Audience.
A lecturer, being unable to fulfill a:
engagement at a certain town, wired
"Impossible to come tonight Give th
audience back their money." He re
ceived the following reply: "We hav
given the audience back his monej
and he has gone home perfectly satis
fled."
