But r when her sons were born she resolv[ ed to put a stop to whiskey-drink^ ing in her home. Her husband being absent, her brothers called for help of the neighbors, according to custom, to put up a barn needed on her farm. They assembled and went to work, whilst she prepared a great dinner. After an hour or two, whiskey was asked for. She refused to provide it. k Her brothers, and, at last, an elder in the church, came to reason with her, to tell her that she would be ' accused of meanness. Without a word the little woman went to the barn, and, baring her head, stepped upon a log and spoke to them: "My neighbors," said she, "this is a strange thing. Three of you ^ are my brothers, three of you my Wr friends. I have prepared for you the p best dinner in my power. If you refuse to raise the barn without liquor, so be it. But I would rather see the timbers rotten where they lie than to give you whiskey." H The men angrily went home, the fr little woman returned tQ the house 4 and for hours cried as though her heart would break. But the next day every man came back, went heartily to work, enjoyed her good dinner, and said not a word about whiskey. This led to the discontinuance of f the use of whiskey at barn-raisings in the county. Her sons grew up strong, vigorous men and did good Iwork in helping to civilize and Christianize the world; their descendants are all of a high type of intellectual and moral men and women. If she had yielded this little point they might have become, like many .of their neighbors?drunkards. ? Baptist Reflector.

I FAILED TO SAVE SISTER'S LIFE. Brother Submits to Blood Transfusuion, but in Vain. Washington, July 28.?Transfusion of blood from her brother's veins into her own were used by surgeons to-day in a futile effort to save the life of Miss Jean Searles, of Vicksburg, Miss., secretary to Representative Gordon Lee, of Georgia. Miss Searles was taken ill a week ago, and during this time had lost a large quantity of blood. The surgeons determined two days ago that she would be unable to live without a fresh supply of blood. Her brother, Thomas Searles, volunteered and permitted the surgeons to open his own veins. The effect was only temporary, however, and was offset by repeated hemorrhages. She died a few hours later. The body will be taken to Vicksburg for burial. LOVE WRECKED HIS LIFE. Miser Starved to Death Amidst His Gold Hoard. Surrounded by tin cans filled with gold, silver and paper money, and with more money packed into every crevice in his little hut, Adolph Hufenhauser,, of Highland, Ind., miser, recluse and victim of a love tragedy, laid himself upon a bench and starved to death. Upon a piece of torn cardboard lay the story of his tragic life. It read: "Strife and worry may fade the bloom of youth, but love's first dream remains in the heart forever." Back of the words lay the secret of his entire life. Hufenhauser had liv-| ed alone in a little shack at Highland, near Hammond for fifty years. He came to Hammond before the Civil war, purchased a forty-acre farm, and set to work to eke out a living and to prepare a little home nest to which he might bring the girl he had left in Wesdorf, Germany. The girl never came. Shortly before the opening of the Civil war, Hufenhauser became a recluse, shunning all companions, never leaving his little cabin unless to work on the farm or to go for food. He worked hard and spent little, storing up his hoard just as if the girl of his dreams were actually coming. When found dying by neighbors, he clasped an old army musket. He had evidently prepared to drive away i inquisitive strangers, but he was too weak from starvation to raise it when the police entered. Gov. Blease Hands Off. Columbia, July 29.?"If Judge Sease sees fit to be the washerwoman of the dirty linen of a transaction between citizens of Tennessee and Georgia, I have no objection, but most 1 positively and assuredly, I will not be," said Gov. Blease this morning, giving out a statement relative to receiving a request from Gov. Hooper, of Tennessee, withdrawing his request of a revocation of the requisi tion of W. J. Massee, or Georgia, < wanted in Tennessee for extortion. The matter ?is now up to Judge Sease. Massee had been arrested in Spartanburg and Gov. Blease at first granted the requisition that the governor of Georgia refused. Later the request from Tennessee was withdrawn and Massee released. Gov. Hooper then, on statements that the case had not been properly presented in Georgia, renewed his request and that is the case as it goes before Judge Sease. Honeymoon in a Balloon. Smithville, Mo., July 28.?A hon- ( eymoon trip of four hours' duration in a balloon that rose to the height of 8,700 feet, traveled 22 miles and came down in a pig pen was experienced by Mrs. Milo Hartman, who landed near here when the pilot balloon Kansas City III came down. She was the only woman in the party and became the bride of Dr. Hartman in Kansas City just before the balloon was cut loose to show the course for the contesting balloons in the national race, which started from Kansas City Saturday. "I enjoyed the trip greatly," said < Mrs. Hartman, " and was not frightened in the least. Pilot Jacobs let us drop nearly into the Missouri river because I said I would like to be cool i and wished I was in the water. As < we were passing over the river, the cool air condensed the gas in the bag , and it dropped. Pilot Jones, to see if I were frightened, let it fall until we were about 100 feet from the water and then threw out some ballast and we started upward until we reached an altitude of 8,700 feet. It was a mighty pleasant experience if Tjro Hirl lanrl in q nicr nan T CVCU 1JL UiU AbAAAVA AAA V* A have a corn cob for a souvenir." The pilots of the balloon say that Mrs. Hartman was the calmest member of the party. Two big days at the Pastime this week, showing two great features Thursday and Friday, also a swell singer will come with the two features from New York. Admission will be the same, 5c and 10c.

Ble to-day issued a statemnt in which grants Mayor Grace, of Charlesi permission to tell anything he wis on the chief executive and in wl he says that if the mayor tells truth he will admit it and if he t a falsehood he will deny it. ' governor's statement is as folio "I notice this morning in the N< and Courier in large headlir 'Grace Dares Blease to Let Him r All,' and in the article purporting be from John P. Grace, he says t there are things which I have t him in confidence which he wc love to tell if I would release him. "I desire to state that I have ne made a confident of John P. Gr in any manner, shape or form, knew that he opposed me in the f primary two years ago, and I h never believed that he supported or even voted for me in the sec< primary and, as I have before stal he was appointed upon my staff u] the request and upon the insiste of Mr. Roessler. "I have never made any statem in my life to Jonn jp. Grace tnat i not willing for the world to kn and he is at liberty to tell anyth he pleases I have ever said to h but I hope that he will confine h self to the truth. He has never been in the mans that I know of but one time and t was when he came to get a fine ga cock which I gave him and to requ me to appoint his brother to a p< tion in case war came on with M< co. I have never had any confiden talk with hjm on any subject, h; never trusted him, because his e set too close together in his he and any man who is any judge of man nature knows that that is a fs sign to veracity or strict honesty. "So, he is at liberty to tell a thing he pleases and when he belc it forth, if it is the truth, I si gladly admit it, and if it is fals shall so brand it, as I did his Ch Ieston falsehoods, to his face and a meeting where he was surroum by his police force and many of friends and supporters and when sat silent and grinned." Friday will be another big day the Pastime, showing four reels. 1 feature, Mildred Holland, in Power Behind the Throne. SCOTTY'S MINE A MYTH. Ostensible Prospector Was Only Fi ing for Suckers.

Scotty also testified that he 1 tried to persuade the officers of Death Valley Scotty Gold Mining i Developing company to locate a 1 mining claims in Death Valley, in der to give the mining scheme the pearance of genuineness, but allej that they refused to do so, saying was unnescessary. Scotty told the grand jury that "hole in the grbund down in De Valley" is a myth, which has tx used for years to fill the pockets the promoters. With the exception of F. C. Go win, the secretary of the compa and its treasurer, Goldworthy, the ficers of the mining concern, have parently dropped from sight. Scotty's confession contained t nther hit of interesting history: He never located a mine, either the Panimint range, the Fune mountains, or anywhere else; he n er owned a mine, was not a miner, only role was to make a big splur to advertise himself as the specta lar and unbridled spendthrift wl all the time cunning schemers w formulating plans upon which tl should profit by this show.

He charges Blease with be big ing the stake-holder for corporation: be when going about the State posing a: the peoples' friend "and dealing oui money in dribblets to v. commoi at drunkard for the Southern Railway.' Che tbe Has Written Proof. Mayor Grace says that he has writ ten proof that he did support Blease at the election two years ago and say: this proof is written in his paper "Common Sense" and that his edito rials were published in certain Blease ^os newspapers. He quoted at' lengtl *a>" from his testimony given before the nce dispensary investigating committee f?r when he told of friendly relationshii inS existing and the overtures made te ich him by the governor to get him te in serve on his staff, and when Blease his promised to consult Grace in all mat ters pertaining to Charleston.
