' V' Laurens, April 21?Early last evening,
while swinging from the conveying pipe,
Master Luther Franks, the 7-year-old son
of Mr. R. J. Franks of the Laurens cotton
mills and one of the best citizens of Laurens,
lost his grip, fell into the reservoir
of the Southern Cotton Oil company here,
and wa9 drowned.
The lad, with two other boys of about
the same age, were playing around the
reservoir and when he fell in his companions
immediately ran home but did
not give the alarm for some time. The
body was recovered at 8.30 and the physicians
summoned announced that the
lad had been dead nearly an hour.

No Short Train.
For some time past the editor of The
Herald has been endeavoring to induce
the Southern Railway to extend the service
of a short train from Augusta on to
Bamberg. This train now runs between
Blackville and Augusta, and it would be
a great convenience to onr people if the
train could be run to Bamberg. We have
had some correspondence both with the
railroad authorities and the railroad commission,
and it appears that we will not
get the train. Superintendent Heether
wrote us last week that the railroad could
not extend the train, on account of the
extra expense the road would be put to
in running another train from Blackville
to Kingville. It seems that this train
will shortly be put on in order to make
certain the connection at Branchville for
Columbia and the up-country. Mr.
Heether's reason for not extending the
Augusta train is no reason at all, but we
greatly fear the railroad commission will
not give us any relief.
Work Commenced..
Mr. E. J. Putzel, of the Electric Supply
Co., contractors for the city's electric
light plant, arrived here Tuesday afternoon
and will have entire charge of the
construction work. A temporary structure
will at once be erected on the lot for
the power house, in which will be stored
machinery, materials, and supplies. A
sales room will be opened up in the store
of E. C. Hays next door to The Herald
office, where will be displayed all sorts of
electrical fixtures, fans, etc. The work
of wiring residences will begin at once.
Mr. Cbartrand has commenced to de
liver the poles for tne line, ana mis wurts.
will be pushed rapidly. A lot of machinery,
etc., has already arrived, and the
president of the company writes us that
practically all machinery for the plant
has been shipped. Mr. Putzel is a hustler,
^ and our people can rest assured that the
work will go forward swiftly and satisfactorily.

HEDGEHOGS.
Teaom of tie Moat Poisonous Soake
Docs Not Affect Them.
An interesting fact about hedgehog
that perhaps not many persons kno\
is that the bites of even the most pol
60dous serpents have no effect on ther
whatever. Mr. Lenz, a naturalist, one
watched a fight between a hedgehoi
and a viper and gives a most interest
ing description of it He says tha
when the hedgehog came near th
snake she began to smell it, for th
sight of these animals is so poor tha
they depend almost entirely on th
sense of smell, and then she seized it
head with her teeth.
In a moment the snake had freed i1
self and, darting at the hedgehog, bi
it several times, but the little anima
did not seem to mind the bites at all
and when the snake was tired out wit]
its efforts she again seized its head
which she ground beneath her teeth
poisonous fangs and all. Then she de
voured almost the whole of its body.
M. Lenz also tells of a pet hedgehoj
that he kept in his house In a larg
box. Several times he put some ad
ders into the box, which the hedgeho;
did not seem to fear at all, but at
tacked them fiercely and, as in the cas
of the other, was never in the least ai
fected by their poisonous bites.
A man who had a pet hedgehoi
in his possession for a long time say
that he had often seen it throw itsel
off the top of a wall fourteen feet ii
height Without pausing a moment i
would contract itself into a soft fluff;
ball and fall to the ground so lightl;
that almost immediately it would un
fold itself and run off.?Chicago Chron
icle.
DIVISIONS OF TIME.
Measurements of the Days, Monthi
and Tear*.
A "solar day" is measured by the ro
tation of the earth upon its axis and 1
of different lengths, owing to the eliip
ticity of the earth's orbit and othe
causes, but a "mean solar day" i
twenty-four hours long, as reckoned b;
the timepieces.
An astronomical day commences a
noon and is counted from the first t
the twenty-fourth hour. A "civil day1
commences at midnight and is count
ed from the first to the twelfth houi
and then again commences with on
and finishes with twelve. A "nautico
day" is reckoned the same as the "civi
day," only that the reckoning is begin
at noon instead of at midnight.
A "calendar month" varies fron
twenty-eight to thirty-one days, i
?t Is +TT*nnfv?-nirii
"meau muur uiuaui 10 >.?
days, twelve hours, forty-four minutes
two and two-thirds seconds. A "year'
is divided into 305 days. A "6ola
year," which is the time occupied b;
the sun in passing from one norma
equinox to the other, consists of 364.
24244 days, which is equal to 365 days
5 hoqrs, 48 minutes, 49.536 seconds.
A "Julian year" is 365 days even. 1
"Gregorian year" is 365.2425 days
The error in the Gregorian mode o
time reckoning amounts to but one da;
in each 3,571 years.
A Good Kater.
When Gustavus of Sweden was b?
sieging Prague, a boor of extraordi
nary aspect gained admittance to hi
tent and offered, by way of amusini
his majesty, to devour a large hog t
his presence. Old General Konigs
marck, who was in attendance, at one
suggested that the man with the Gai
gantuan appetite should be burned a
a witch, whereupon the boor, whos
feelings were hurt by this observatioi
exclaimed, "If your majesty will bu
make that old gentleman take off hi
sword and spurs, I will eat him befor
I begin the pig." This was accom
panied by such a "hideous expansioi
of the jaws and mouth" that the gen
eral, though he had given his "proofs
on many a field, turned pale and fie
incontinently to his tent.
Two Handles.
Everything has two handles?the on
soft and manageable, the other such a
will not endure to be touched. If, ther
your brother do you an injury, do no
take It by the hot hard handle, by rep
resenting to yourself all the aggraval
ing circumstances of the fact, but loo!
rather on the soft side and extenuat
it as much as is possible by considei
leg the nearness of the relation and th
long friendship and familiarity tx
tween you?obligations to kindnes
which a single provocation ought no
to dissolve. And thus you will take th
accident by its manageable handle.Epictetus.
The Hungarian Crown,
The Hungarian crown, the royal head
dress worn at their accession by all th
Austrian emperors, is the identical on

the time of his coronation, more tha:
800 years ago. It is of pure gold an

It is adorned with 53 sapphires, 5

In Need of Fund*. |
The Philadelphia Ledger tells how one |
man had his financial needs anticipated: |
A churchman was traveling through I
the country with an evangelist. At a' I
village in Ohio, a meeting was held, at I
which an announcement was made that |
the proceeds of a collection to be taken |
would be turned over to a missionary .
fund. In the audience was a man who
was publicly known to oppose foreign
missions, and who was also suspected of
being an agnostic of the deepest dye.
The churchman in the course of the collection
passed this man the box. The
other pushed it away with a sneer on bis
face. A sudden inspiration came to the
churchman, and, thrusting the box under
the fellow's nqse, he said, "Here, take
some?it's for the heathen."
