SOUTH CAROLINA.
The Proud Old State as Seen b
Thos. F. McDow, Esq.
Mr. Thomas F. McDow, of York
ville, was one of the speakers at th
banquet of the St. Andrew's societ:
in Charleston, Thanksgiving night
He responded to the toast "Th
State of South Carolina" and his ad
dress was one that should set th<
people of this commonwealth ti
thinking. Recalling the great stat
of our forefathers, he compared i
with conditions that are prevailin;
in it now. The comparison is pa
thetic.
After recounting some history an<
achievements of old South Carolina
Mr. McDow exclaimed:
"Measured by this standard, th<
past of South Carolina is secure
The opinions of the judges have beei
quoted with approval in Westminste
hall; she has given to the medica
profession Marion Simms, to theolog;
the great Thornwell, to literatun
Simms, Legare and Timrod. The rob
of her distinguished statesmen is to<
long to recall. Suffice it to say tha
the heart of every true South Caro
linian thrills with pride as he remem
bers the conspicuous part played b:
his people upon the battlefields o
America, and by the representative:
of South Carolina in the golden day:
of the Rutledges and the Pinckneys
Lowndes and McDuffiie."
Then, after thesitating for a mo
ment, the speaker proceeded: .
""ine oia oraer nas given piace u
the new; what was Goose Creek onc<
is Tiber now. The tidal wave of frat
ricidal strife broke upon our belovei
State. The men wTho had made Soutl
Carolin the admiration of the world
were retired to the seclusion of pri
vate life, and every little hungr:
manikin began a mad struggle fo
the seats of the mighty. The strong
man of character and ability has no
found the field of politics in Soutl
Carolina of late years an invitinj
one. The captains of industry, fa
tally bent upon heaping up riches
where moth and dust doth corrupt
have devoted their great abilitiei
with marvellous success to the indus
trial development of the State, an(
the demagogue has devoted himsel
with equal, if not greater, activity t<
the task of fooling a majority of th<
people all the time.
"Mr. President, I am not a pessi
mist, nor am I a Bourbon, who look!
backward to the glory of an ag<
which has departed, rather than t<
the pride of achievements in the re
turn, but when I think of what w<
are and read the comments of th<
press of the country upon what w<
are, I think of the old darky wh<
had buried his fourth wife.' His pas
tor asked him how he felt. He said
'Mr. Johnsing, I feels like I am in th<
hands of an- all-wise and unscrupu
lous Providence.'
"Politically, South Carolina ii
sick. Whether she has pellagra o
rabies I am unable to say, but I dc
know that she needs the service of s
physician and surgeon, and not s
quack. Her citizens have so long devoted
their thought to the befct solution
of the whisky question that the
moral vision of our people has become
somewhat obscured. It is true
that the old State has had a fev
lucid intervals, but the places of distinction
are not regarded as high and
honorable as they once were. The
man who offers for a position of honor
and trust in these days must be
what ts known as a good mixer
which, being translated, means thai
he must be a hail-fellow-well-mel
with any sort of a rascal, and drink
corn whisky and branch water, and
be the proud possessor of an elastic
conscience. He must possess the
further qualifications of being higt
up in the noble Order of Striped Zebras
and Worthy Past Moguul of the
Wild Wolves of the Canebrakes and
kindred orders.
"Mr. President, I would not be understood
as underestimating the importance
of developing the resources
of the State and making Uy) grains
of corn grow where one grew before
but what I do wish to emphasize is
that it is more important and necessary
for us to grow men than grain.'
Next came a breath of optimism:
"But, sir, I do not despair of Soutl
Carolina's future. She holds the
world's record for the largest yield ol
corn and oats on a single acre ol
ground; , she is the greatest cottor
manufacturing State in the union;
she has within a period of thirtyfive
years, restored her credit in the
markets of the world. She has, 01
is founding, a splendid system ol
public schools in every nook anc
corner of the State; she has provided
liberally for the poor and afflicted
within her borders, and builded
splendid colleges which are tc
train her youth and be the nursery
of her future leaders. The development
of great men has only beer
arrested for a short time, but the
need for a lion-like leader to guide
and direct the destinies of our beloved
State was never greater thai
now."?Greenville Piedmont.
DANGEROUS FISHING.
y A Night On an Ice Floe With a Famished
Wolf.
Lake fishermen who maintain that
e fishing huts are in no danger of bey
ing carried away in the id, and
northern hunters who .assert with
e equal wisdom that the gray wolf is
- never seen in Michigan save in the
e farthest recesses of the north, are |
o nature fakers, all of them. Two
9 years ago, in the dead of winter, Dr.
t M. A. Leach was out on Lake Michig
gan in a friend's hut, fishing through
- the ice. Everything was proceeding
merrily when?says the doctor:
3 "Then came a sudden report,
, sounding like thunder. The ice was
going!
p, "I rushed outside, but the snow
was blinding, and I could, of course,
j not even see the shore line. I stood
r perplexed for a moment, but as I
I Had 110 compass, mere was iiuuimg
for it but to keep warm and trust
? to luck. All around the thunderous
I reports were sounding and the ice
5 was quivering strangely. I was frightj.
ened, but as there was no help for it,
I weth back to the hut and kept on
fishing.
,T "This was about noon. I noticed,
f to my relief, that there were no
5 cracks coming beneath the hut, so
s that if the ice did go out I should at
least be on a big cake?for a time.
The big cakes do not last very long
in Lake Michigan. I could not tell
what was happening outside, for the
wind was shrieking and howling hor5
ribly, and every few seconds the ice
3 would split with a resounding crash.
So, for lack of something better to
* do, I arrangecl>a frying pan I had over
1 the little stove and to keep up my
^ food supply, I started frying some
" of the fish, after cleaning them out
r side the hut. In a few minutes the
r place was filled with a most appetiz?
ing odor, which, I presume, had
something to do with what followed.
1 "First of all I heart a scries of low
* whines outside; then something
" scratched at the door. I opened it in
? amazement thinking some dog had,
- perhaps, been lost on the ice and had
3 found my hut. To my surprise, how"
ever, a great unkempt animal en*
tered and fawned about my feet, lickf
ing my boots; and although I had
5 never seen ODe I knew, that it was
- a gray wolf. The animal seemed terrified
beyond measure by the split*
ting ice and the stoirm, for he kept
3 casting fearful glances at the door,
s and showed no sign whatever of
i wildness."
As the doctor had no other weapon
3 than his knife and a frozen fishing
3 line, he was in a quandary. But the
3 wolf seemed lonely and showed a
3 strong desire to make himself at
- home, so they naturally decided to
: let it go at that, and spent the night
3 quite charmingly together. The next
- morning?hear what the dodtor says:
"I awoke to find the sun up, the
3 day bright and clear, and the landr
four or five miles west of us. All
^ around floated cakes of ice, going
L the same way as ourselves in the
L grip of some current. My fears
. passed away with the bright sunlight
and I used up my last wood in
, cooking some fish for the wolf, while
I finished the basket of provisions. >
"So the wolf and I went out in the
r sunshine, and now the animal grew
surly and no longer welcomed m,y
^ approaches. I believe that so long
> as the danger lasted he was cowed,
[ but thet with the approach of day,
, and when rescue was at hand for me,
all his savage nature returned upon
' him with redoubled force. However'
' that may be, two hours later I saw
. a dot moving among the ice, and as
it neared saw that It was a fish boat,
, doubtless with a rescue party on
board. And now came the most sur'
prising part of my adventure.
"The boat was about half a mile
, distant and the occupants having
I seen me and waved to me, started to
make their way through the floating
ice. I saw the wolf watching them
with bristling hair, and suddenly he
turned to me with a low growl. I
offered him a bit of fish, but he took
no notice, and I began to fear that
he realized that my rescue would not
include his. At any rate, he drew
back a few steps, his eyes fixed on
mine. Then, with a quick movement,
he sprang at me.
1 "I had no weapon, except a short
; knife, which was closed. All I could
' do was to jump aside, hitting him
- with my fist as he missed me?an old
1 boxing trick. But I had not counted
: on that savage side slash of the great
teeth, and when the animal gained
i his feet and turned to fly at me again
* my hand was streaming with blood
- from a small gash. I heard shouts
I from the approaching fish boat, but
* as the party was unarmed, they could
- not help me.
"Immediately upon getting his bal>
ance on the snow the wolf came to'
ward me slowly and sprang again.
This time I was really frightened,
i and, with a wild idea of holding him
s away until my friends could assist me,
J I met him half way, grasped his
throat in both hands, and we both
i fell to the snow together, for the impact
of his leap was tremendous. I
FIRE IN COLUMBIA.
Between $325,000 and $450,000
Damage in Wholesale District.
Columbia, Jan. 5.?Fire which
cleaned out a block in West Gervais
street, the wholesale district of Columbia
to-day, inflicted damage varioulsy
estimated at between $325,000
and $450,000. It was the most disastrous
blaze in this city since the
town was laid in ashes during the
last year of the war between the sections.
Starting in the repair department
of the Gibbes Machinery Company,
probably from an overheated boiler,
the flames were driven by an easterly
breeze to adjacent structures, wiping
out entirely the premises of the
Gibbes Machinery Company, the Columbia
Machine and Iron Works,
the Southern States Supp'ly Company
and Armour & Co.; destroying the
warehouse of the Moffat B. Dupre
Company, together with three frame
residences and several stables and
damaging more or less seriously the
wholesale firms of E. A. Beall Company,
H. G. Werts & Co., J. D. Miot
ard T. B. Roach & Co. The drug
stock of F. S. Earle was taken out in
time, but suffered considerable damage
from removal and water.
Automobiles to the number of 18
or 20 were burned in the motor department
of the Gibbes establishment;
several other cars being saved.
All the concerns affected are
planning to continue in business and
several will rebuild as soon as possible.
The fire will result in the erection
of several creditable fireproof
structures in the wholesale district.

One Dead; Six Hurt.
. Statesboro, Ga., Jan. 6.?W. H.
Fail is dead and Frank Morris, white,
and six negroes are hurt, one seriously,
as a result of an accident on
the Savannah and Statesboro Railway
last night near Stilson, when a light
engine backed into the motor car
carrying the section gang, of which
Mr. Fail was foreman. There were
15 men on the car and seven of them
escaped unhurt.
Mr. Fail had been in the employ
of the road for a long time. He was
returning last night when the accident
occurred. Morris's leg was
broken.
A special train was rushed to the
scene with medical aid. Mr. Fail

savagely with his hind paws, the
sharp claws tearing through my coat
like knives, and I realized my danger
just in time to cast myself backward.
Instantly the wolf returned to
the attack, and this time the look in
his face frightened me so that I did
not wait for him. I whipped my coat
away and threw it in his face; then
turned and, running to the side of
the icecake, leaped into the water.
"I am a good swimmer, and the
boat was only 100 feet distant, so in
no time I was on board and getting
into warm clothes. The engine was
stopped, and we lay there watching
the wolf. He seemed puzzled at my
disappearance, running backward and
forward on the ice; then he looked
at the boat and howled dismally.
None of the men liked to attack him
with knives for their only weapons,
