The State Has Affected a Compromise in the Suit Against the Constables. In the United States circuit court today, an order was taken, cancelling the bond of the several State constables who were convicted in the court of general sessions some time ago for assaulting Rudolph Wieters at his place of business in the course of a raid on the establishment. It was stated several days ago in The Evening Post that a compromise would probably be affected and this has now been done, and the case will not go before' the jury. The amount of the consideration which the State paid to stop the suit was not announced, the order of the court simply providing for the dismissal of the suit and cancellation of the bond of $35,000, which the court had required of the defendants, all references to the amount of the sum agreed upon being omitted. The attorneys in the case stated that the compromise sum would not be announced.?Evening Post. Here He Drew the Line. Patrolman Hogan, who sfends at Eleventh and Walnut streets, is asked many peculiar questions every day. Women especially ask all sorts of queer things, says the Kansas City Times. ; "Last week," said the officer yesterday, "a woman came up and asked me how many children the president has. That *' same day another woman led a little dog up ana asked me where she could sell it. When I said I didn't know she went away half mad. One of the queerest questions I was ever asked, however, came from a woman Monday. She stopped on the corner here and after hesitating a moment asked: "'Officer, is my dress unbuttoned bet hind the shoulders?'" "There were two buttons unfastened and I told her so. "'Thank you,' she said. Then she s- studied a minute. 'I wonder who I can ? get to button them?' she asked. " 'I don't know.' I said. 'Not me.'" .

State News Boiled Down for Quick Reading Pungent Paragraphs About Men and Happenings. The Citadel cadets will-go into camp at Columbia this week. There were forty graduates at Clemson this year, four of them being in the agricultural department. The largest number, 16, were in the electrical and mechanical engineering department. And now Colleton county has joined the ranks of those counties who want to vote out the dispensary. Petitions are being circulated, and an election will be held on the question in case enough signatures are secured to the petitions asking for the election. There was a general row in a negro church at Montmorenci, Aiken county, last Sunday afternoon and one negro who was acting as peacemaker was killed. His slayer defied the sheriff and his deputies, but was arrested without trouble and lodged in jail. There is talk of moving the Presbyterian College of South Carolina from Clinton to Yorkville, the latter town having made a very flattering proposal to the trustees. A committee has been appointed to look into the matter and report to a meeting of the board the 12th of September. Two negro preachers were tried in the United States court in Charleston last week for pension frauds. Each pleaded guilty. One was sentenced to imprisonment of one year and the other to six months. Another negro preacher in Beaufort has been indicted for a like offense and will be tried at the next term of court. A fight started between a white man and a negro on a trolley car on the Augusta-Aiken line last Saturday afternoon and a general fight resulted. The negro cut the white man on the wrist and was put off the car. He then drew his pistol and commenced firing, which was returned by the whites. When the smoke of battle cleared away one white man was killed and two wounded. One is badly wounded and it is thought will die. The negro's brother was also slightly wounded. A suit has been commenced in the United States court at Charleston by H. T. Cummings, of Augusta, against the Southern railway.

Frank Bamberg handles the best buggies and wagons, yet the prices are reasonable. Judge Poland's Cow. Judge Poland, of Vermont, was a member of congress, and in demand as a campaign speaker, says the Boston Herald. He was not a strict temperance man, though by no means intemperate. He was to make a speech in Maine, where the temperance laws were stringent.

Columbia, June 12?Tlie county cam| paigns started in various parts of the State to vote out the dispensary has bej come almost epidemic. Pickens having joined Cherokee in the dry column and petitions looking to the same end being in circulation now in Anderson, Greenville, Spartanburg, Union, Oconee, Williamsburg, Charleston and Newberry. And this and other evidences of a change of heart on the part of various classes of people against the dispensary have started some interesting political talk, which seems to outline some important realignments for the coming campaign?county as well State, Senatorial and Congressional. Among other entertaining phenomena held out as probable is Senator Tillman stumping the State for prohibition. His close personal and political friends assert with confidence that he will certainly be found doing something of this kind in case it is demonstrated that the State is determined to rid itself of the dispensary. And the prohibitionists will get numerous other strong advocates from the dispensary ranks. Among other prominent politicians who have climbed aboard the prohibition band wagon recently are exCongressman Jasp. Talbert and ex-United States Senator John L. McLaurin, both said to have aspirations which they hope to realize in the coming campaign. The prohibitionists alone are not strong enough to carry the State, their voting strength being only 20,000, but there are many dispensary advocates who have been accepting the dispensary as the next best thing, who, it is said, are now willing to join the prohibition ranks. And there is always a large whiskey element ever ready to join either the angels or the -devil's imps to beat the dispensary. There has been no effort so far to organize the prohibition forces, but the leaders say this will be done in the immediate future, and that the campaign will be pitched with a view to capturing the Legislature as well as the State offices. Not only a State ticket will be put out, thsy say, but every county will be organ ized so as to elect memoers 01 me legislature who will vote against the dispensary and for prohibition. On whom the cold water people will center their energy for Governor is so far altogether a matter of speculation. Mr. J. A. McCullough, of the Greenville bar, and Mr C C Featherstone, of the Laurens bar, have both indicated recently that they would not be non-conductors should the lightning strike in their immediate vicinity. The dispensary people show a disposition to concentrate on Col. John T. Sloan of Columbia for Governor, because among the other candidates for Governor M. F. Ansel of Greenville is regarded as a prohibitionist, and Speaker of the ,House M. L. Smith of Camden, and State Senator Richard I. Manning of Sumter, are regarded as too luke-warm. Chairman Hub Evans of the dispensary directorate and State Senator Cole L. Blease of Newberry have been regarded as probable gubernatorial candidates, but neither will make the race. Mr. Evans wants to retain his present position and Senator Blease feels that he can help the dispensary cause better by running for Attorney General, quietly directing the dispensary strength toward Col. Sloan as he goes along. Experienced politicians say that high I likens* is an imDossibilitv in as thorough ly Democratic a State as South Carolina?that is, an impossibility as a permanent arrangement. The constitution forbidding the sale of whiskey except under dispensary regulations the prediction is, therefore, made that if a high license law is passed by the next Legislature (or by the new one succeeding it), the exclusive or monopolistic features of an arrangement of this kind will cause its death at the succeeding election in favor of low license. Before concluding it might be said by way of parenthesis, as it were, that it is felt here that the efforts to vote out the dispensary will not succeed in either Charleston or Anderson. In fact the Charleston petition has been withdrawn, and it is understood that the Anderson paper has no substantial backing. Speaker Reed and the Barber. Years ago Tom Reed, then speaker of the house of representatives, went into a barber shop in "Washington to be shaved. After the darkey had scraped his chin he began to cast about for further work or for a chance to sell hair tonics. "Hair purty thin," he said fingering the two or three ?tray locks that fringed Mr. Reed's bald pate; "been that way long, suh?" "I was bom that way," replied Keed. "Afterward I enjoyed a brief period of hirsute efflorescence, but it did not endure." The barber gasped and said no more. Later some one told him he had shaved the speaker. "Speakah!" he exclaimed. "Don't I know dat? I should say he was a speakah, sure 'nuff!" The war department under the Dick law, has given the South Carolina militia $18,000 for an encampment. The en-* campment will begin July 15th and will probably be in Columbia. COUNTRY NEWS LETTERS. SOME INTERESTING HAPPENINGS IN VARIOUS SECTIONS.

Old Sol is sending his strongest rays to remind us of the summer days, though a very refreshing rain fell Mondey afternoon which was very much needed. Miss Pearle Sandifer spent last week with her sister, Mrs. N. J. Padgett, of ^ n spring urauuu. Mrs. F. E. Dozier and Miss Eva Hanberry, of Denmark, visited Miss Georgie Emma Jordan Sunday. A number of the young folks of this vicinity are looking forward to the picnic at Colston school house on Saturday next. Mr. Willmot Sandifer had the misfortune of losing his buggy horse, of blind staggers, on last Friday. Mesdames Julia and Mattie Sandifer chaperoned a crowd of young folks to visit the county chain gang, which is stationed near the Ehrhardt place, on last Friday evening. They Report a very pleasant time. We will all be glad when the daily mail route is a reality instead of an imagination.

Fairfax, June 9.?The ginnery and saw mill operated here by H. M. Hardley and J. W. Sullivan was burned today between 1 and 2 o'clock. It is not clear how the fire originated. The saw mill was being operated this morning, but shut down for dinner about twelve o'clock and the fire was discovered after 1 o'clock. It is said that the fire started in the seed warehouse and it is claimed that it was set by a passing engine on the Seaboard Air Line railway, but as the sawmill boiler was fired up the fire may have been set by that. A high east wind was blowing and carried fire from the burning mill to the residence of Mr. G. S. O'Neal, a distance of 250 yards, and set it on fire, but fortunately it was extinguished before any serious damage was done. No other building was burned. The loss of Messrs. Hardley and Sullivan probably amounts to between $2,000 and $3,000. An empty freight car belonging to the Seaboard Air Line railway company was burned to ashes and another car loaded with lumber was set on fire and the lumber was slightly damaged, but the car was rolled to the water tank and the fire extinguished.

North, June 12.?This afternoon at 6 o'clock a tragedy occurred which has shocked this community. Capt. J. Dempsey Jones, one of North's oldest and most honored citizens, was walking across the track, when the Seaboard Air Line's northbound train No. 34 passed through. He was struck by the flying train and instantly killed. The accident occurred near the depot and many friends of Capt. Jones were standing near. Some turned their heads away, as they saw it was too late to do anything. The dead man was 79 years old and had been in the care of a physician for some time. He was old and feeble and it is likely that he never knew what strnr.b him. Capt. Jones was well known throughout South Carolina and had a large and prominent family connection. He leaves sons and daughters as follows: Dr. T. A. Jones of Springville, J. Arthur Jones of Charlotte, Mrs. J. W. Barnes of Cope, Mrs. James Zeigler of Orangeburg, J. D. Jones, Jr., and Mrs. Annie C. Tyler and Miss Lizzie Jones of North. The funeral services will take place tomorrow afternoon at the Jones burying ground. The train was in charge of Conductor Bate and Engineer Poteat. The Reason Why. The Bamberg Herald says: "The daily papers of the State seem to be prosperous. The Charleston News and Courier and the Columbia State are at present installing fine new presses, and the Charleston Evening Post has announced that a new and up-to-date machine is now being erected for that newspaper. The Post expects to install its new press about the first of September. Evidently this wave of prosperity which has struck the dailies, missed the weeklies." The wave of prosperity would have missed the dailies too if they were managed on the same nonbusiness principles that the weeklies are run on. Most of the weeklies in the State are run on slip sh6d business methods. They publish all sorts of notices free that dailv papers get well paid for publishing. This should be stopped. Then the weeklies extend an unlimited credit to their subscribers. In fact about the only way for a subscriber to get off the books ol some of the weeklies is for him to die This is wrong and should be stopped Let the weekly papers come down tc business methods,charging for all notices that should be charged for,such as obitua ries, tributes of respect, &c., and occa sionally have a settlement with its sub scribers. Then the wave of prosperity will strike them too. These remarks ar< not intended for the Bamberg Herald We are satisfied that Brother Knigfr must apply prett sound business princi pies in the management of his paper, or h< , could not give the people of his county the excellent paper he does at the lov price of subscription he charges. Bu' they are applicable to a great many week . ly papers, The Times and Democra' among the number.?Orangeburg Time; . and Democrat. I ? Almost Satisfied. Congressman Broussard, of Louisiana , says that at New Iberia, his state, in ,th< early '90's, when that district was visite< by a severe flood, one of the expedition: for relief organized by the goveramen one day encountered an old negro who in a dilapidated dugout, was having con siderable trouble in keeping afloat, say: the New York Times. The old fellov was busy paddling with one hand, whil< he bailea out his craft with the other. At this juncture the relief boat cami . within hailing distance, and the captaii called out: "Hello, there, uncle! Anything yot want?" "Nothin' 'cept wings, boss," was th< grim reply. In Chicago.

This most notable mother passed away recently at the ranch of her son, John Gillespie, 10 miles south of Denver. Mrs. Gillespie, after giving birth to one of the most marvelous families on record, lived to reach the age of 84 and to see her many children scattered far and wide over the country. This remarkable mother came from a long-lived family and was 1 ?f 20 children herself. Many children seemed, it is said, only the natural course of events to her, and hei 15 pairs of twins were not considerd at all remarkable by mother and father.

DIED OF LOOPING THE LOOP. Paris Performer Couldn't Endure the Terriffic \ Strain of It Paris, June 12.?The perils of "looping the loop" in a motor car were illustrated by some remarkable revelations made at the magisterial inquiry regarding Mile. Rendel, the young woman who died from oKn/<lr ropflTitlTT offer offemnfinff fhO TU>r. Uliuv/i* 'VVfcuw; ?'VH ?? r formance at the Casino de Paris. Before her first attempt to loop the loop in a motor car was made experiments were tried with dummy figures in the car. They were decapitated in nearly every case. Then a pig was placed in the car, and sent round the circle. The animal was so severely injured that it had to be slaughtered. The first time Mile. Rendel looped the loop she fainted. She plucky attemped it again and again she fainted. A doctor told her that she was doing a highly i dangerous preformamce, which would eventually kill her by causing a tremendous rush of blood to the head and he J Vy predicted that she would not survive ten performances. Mile. Rendel kept up her performances for some in spite of the terrible strain on her nerves. But she died after the twenty-ninth. The managers of the house and the managers of the exhibit were prosecuted for allowing the performance. Rewarded With a Pardon. Frank Davis, a negro convict on the Fairfield chain gang, has been rewarded for saving a guard's life. Gov. Heyward last Monday signed his parden. Davis was sent up in 1902 for housebreaking and larceny and his sentence was five years. The other day one of the negro convicts on the same gang with Davis planned to escape. While the guard's back was turned the negro rushed at him with a pickax and only the AniAlrtiMo f\f TinTT'O nrarantod O vi A/ai .ui ^avvvuvvv* w The other negro fought desperately, but Davis finally overpowered him and the county supervisor of Fairfield at once took steps to have Davis set free.

A Worthy Charity. * A certain English actor, whose debta\ had made him an object of interest to vafc)us bailiffs, met a friend one day who . asked, him if he could spare ten shillings toward a fund with which to bury a bailiff ' who had just died. "By all means," replied the actpr; ' , ' "here's twenty shillings?bury two." The Rural Telephone. The rural telephones are making s ' change in farm life. A Shelby coun?y 7 (Kan.) farmer got into trouble in town 3 the other day. Later he was called up over his rural telephone and informed 1 that a warrant had been issued for him ' and that he might consider himself under 3 arrest, and he was asked by officer if he* 7 would have to come after him? The far7 mer asked the nature of the charge, and t was told that it was disturbance and that * the fine and costs world be $14. The t farmer telephoned back that he was too 3 busy to quit work, but would plead guilty and send the money by the rural carrier the next day, and he did. Up in New\ Wirt State the hired man pinned with a ^ t farmer's daughter. Before going he took 2 the precaution to cut the rural telephone 1 wires, so there was nothing left for the farmer to do but wait till the wires were * repaired and telephone his blessing. , Dangers of Travelling. One of the best stories told about Arte3 mus Ward concerns a journey which, the [ humorist took on a little "one-horse" railroad line in the Middle West. After 2 the train had crept from station to station 1 at a snail's pace for half a day, Ward 1 beckoned to the conductor as he passed through the car. e "Say, conductor," he drawled, "do you mind if I give you a little advice?" "Well, what is it?" skid the conductor, . gruffly. ' "Seems to me," continued Ward, "it would be safer to take the cowcatcher off . the engine and hitch it to the end of the ' rear car." "What for?" demanded the conductor. "Well, I've been thinking it over," said Ward, "and I don't see what's to prevent V.orr, AAWO A?f f*Am AAmin<v UAJLV v/i KUWUi wno VUW bUU V JliViU vuiuxug i into the car and biting the passengers." 1 Tarn A boat.

A few days later the actor i received from his new acquaintance this note: "I have heard from many sources that your performance is excellent. Will you send me two seats for any night next week?" The actor made inquiries and learned that the man was the possessor of great wealth. So he replied: "I hear from many sources that your wealth is immense. Will you send me $200 any time next week?"
