the newspaper business this week
is almost what Gen. Sherman said war
was.
A petition has been sent to the presiding
judge of this circuit asking that no
jury cases be tried f 'c the July term of
court for this county, but as we go to
press no reply to the petition has been
received. It is quite likely the request
will be granted, as there is only one prisoner
in jail, and the criminal docket is
unusually light.
Doctor Evans, the American dentist,
who achieved such success in Paris, once
received, before he went abroad, a letter
from a young Yermonter, who wanted a
set of false teeth made and sent to him.

and they had good rains during the past

To the Public.
I hereby announce to my friends and
supporters that I have decided to withdraw
from the race for the senate. Good
and sufficient reasons of a private nature
influence this course. I thank my many
friends for the support and encouragement
they have given me, and much regret
that I will be unable to offer my services
to Bamberg county in the next election.
H. SPANN DOWLING.
Bamberg, S. C.. July 13, 1904.
He Showed How JTwa9 Done.
"Oh, how could you!" exclaimed the
fair maid, who had been kissed unexpect-1
edly.
"It will afford me pleasure to show i
you," calmly replied the audacious young j
man.
Whereupon he proceeded more slowly.
EAGLE AND STURGEON.
The King of Birds and Kins of Pish
In a Death Clinch.
We had-been camped for a few days
at a point on the upper reaches of the
Pic river, waiting for a few of the
party who were running a side line. A
source of amusement was watching
the descent of a large baldheaded eagle
in the eddy back of the point.
He would strike the water with
great force, coming down from an immense
height At times he would dive
under the surface to reappear a mo- j
ment or two later generally witn a :
fish clutched in his claws, when he j
would fly (freighted with his fish) to
a very high mountain, on the overhanging
crest of which the nest with
his mate and young were quite visible
to us with our field glass.
I had noticed his success and Journeys
to the nest for two mornings. On
the third morning a shadow coming
across the sun's rays caused me to
look up and there was the great bird ;
at his usual hunt to supply the young j
eagles with breakfast With his keen
eye piercing the river depths be poised
over a particular spot for a few mo
meats and tnen soot aowu wiiu ui?
velocity of a cannon ball.
The waters parted and tbe eagle was
lost to view. I watched and waited to
see him emerge with his prey, but momeats
lengthened into minutes, and
minutes into a quarter of an hour, but
the surface of the water remained undisturbed.
What could it mean? Even if he
had struck himself against some hidden
rock and been killed tbe body
would have floated to the surface. It
passed my reasoning powers to solve
the result of that plunge. Then far
down, fully a quarter of a mile off, I
saw the great bird struggling, either to
carry off a heavy burden or to free
himself from one. - The waters were
lashed into foam and the bird again,
disappeared, and all was still.
This lashing of the water and disappearing
were repeated again and
again, each time farther downstream.
A bend in the river prevented my
seeing the final result. Calling one
of our men from the tent, we embarked
in a canoe and started down the
river to view the strange proceeding
closer. When we had doubled the
point below I saw lodged against the
beach in a small bay something that
did not look natural to the place. We
paddled down and found it waa my eagle
fast fixed to a sturgeon fully six
feet long. Both were motionless. The
king of fish and the king of birds had
met death.?Forest and Stream.
A Cold In the Head.
A hydropathic treatment of a coil
in the head is more reliable than any
other. It is as follows: In the morning
after rising and at night before retiring
wash the feet and legs as high np
as the knees in cold water, then rub
them with a rough towel and massage
them till the skin is red and glowing.
In addition to this cautiously sou I
tepid water up the nose frequently
during the day and sip with a teaspoon
a glassful as hot as can be
borne an hour before each meal and at
bedtime. A few days is often quite
sufficient for simple cases and obstinate
ones yield if the treatment Is prolonged.
No medicines are required.
If taken in the first stages of the disease
a cold is broken up which might
otherwise become a severe case of
bronchitis, lasting many days or
weeks.?Chicago News.
A Svbatltnte For Lotto.
In an English school recently a certain
boy was regularly absent during
the hour in which Latin was taught
The teacher called upon the boy's father,
at whose instructions it had been
learned be remained away, and asked j
for an explanation. The father said:
"It is all right During the Latin hour
I am teaching Jimmy something that
he will find far more useful than Latin
in his progress through life." The
teacher was interested and ashed
what this subject might be. The father
replied. "I am teaching my son
how to shave without a looking glass."
