Stole a Whole Store.
John Green, a young negro man,
was arresteed by Policeman Broom
Monday for larceny committed in
Branchville Saturday night and yesterday
afternoon Deputy Byrd of
Orangeburg carried the negro to
Orangeburg, where he was placed in
jail.
The police department received information
from Sheriff Dukes of
Orangeburg that the store of Mrs.
Byrd has been broken into Saturday
night at Branchville and a large
amount of merchandise taken. They
advised the local authorities to look
out for a negro. Accordingly Officer
Broom went to work on the case and
landed his man.
After the negro saw there was no
use denying the theft he admitted
breaking into the store at Branchville
and carrying off a big amount
of stuff, and at the same time implicated
another negro,
The police have succeeded in locating
some of the property said to be
stolen, consisting of several pairs of
shoes, a coat and vest, bars of soap,
lead pencils, pocket knives, bottles
of cologne and other articles of merchandise
of the kind carried by a

[ Dr James Woodrow died at his
home in Columbia last Thursday.
He was born in the town of Carlisle,
England in 1828. When seven years
old he came with his family to Canada.
He was educated in Ohio and
came to the South before 1860. In
1861 he was elected a professor in the
theological seminary at Columbia.
He was president of the South Carolina
college for many years. He had
a clear, logical mind and was a ready
writer. He engaged in various business
enterprises with considerable
success. .*
The National House of Representatives
has passed an act increasing
the salaries of senators and representatives
from $5,000 to $7,500 per
annum. This 50 per cent, increase
will take the place of the railroad
passes that the rate-bill has deprived
them of. Before this becomes a law,
however, the act should be so amended
as to provide for the forfeiture of
salaries of senators and representatives
during their absence, unless the
absence is from providential causes.

If salaries of aosentees were withheld,
there would never be any lack
for a quorum.?Edgefield Advertiser.
The American Farm.
It is estimated that the crops in the
United States this year will supply the
$70,000,000 worth each month of the year
for export. Cotton will lead off, with
about $400,000,000 for the year to its
credit. It is the surplus product of the
farms of the United States that brings to
this country every year more than onehalf
of the world's supply of gold. A
part of this we send back in payment for
manufactured articles bought in other
parts of the world, for tea, coffee and J
sugar, and another part is taken .across
the seas by American tourists and foolish
American girls, who persist in marrying
the beggarly foreigners, but enough is
left here annually to make us the most
prosperous people in the world. The
American farm is the source of American
wealth, and in not our Alaska gold, and
our Colorado silver mines, nor our manufacturing
industries, great as tbey are.
