A clothing advertisement propounds
the query: "What good is a ^
shirt tail, anyway?" Well, in the

case of a school boy it might be
used to wipe his face with when

W. P. Pollock, of Chesterfield, has Cl
entered the race for the United States ^
Senate. Mr. Pollock may be a good a
man, but the line-up in the Senatorial e
race seems already fixed, and where
he hopes to draw his support from
we fail to see. However, his entry
may serve to make Cne campaign *
more interesting. ^

The Columbia Record has started ?
a movement to have a South Carolina =
exhibit at the San Francisco exposition.
A proper building and exhibit
will cost a lot of money, but it is the
kind of advertising that pays, and in J
that section, where lands are so much
higher than in the South, it seems
to be good business to advertise our
resources and attract new population.
some editors are veisai.no gcuiuoes.
Some months ago Col. V. B.
Cheshire, editor of the Anderson Intellingencer,
sold his paper and immediately
thereafter announced his
candidacy for congress and commenced
an aggressive campaign, soon
afterwards starting another paper
which he published only a few weeks.
Then he went into the livery and
draying business, and now h6 is running
for probate judge of Anderson
county.
Found Needle in Child.
Little Marie Carswell, the nine
ihonths old baby of Mr, and Mrs. A.
Carswell, had a peculiar operation
made upon her Thursday morning,
when a needle about an inch and a
half long was removed from her right
side. The doctor discovered the
needle with an X-ray ana removea 11.
The needle was rusty and it is not
known how long it has been in the
little girl. The parents have no idea
how the needle got into the little one,
or how long it has been there, and
only suspected something was wrong
by noticing a pimple just above the
needle.?Aiken Journal and Review.
The Coming Campaign.
Senator Smith each day demon- strates
the fact that he will be amply
able to take care of himself on the
stump this summer. The scene of
baiting the bull will not appear this
time.?Lake City News.
Man Killed by Lightning.
Lancaster, June 5.?During a thunder
storm here this afternoon about |
5 o'clock, Alex Boykin, a negro man,
was killed by a stroke of lightning.
Boykin was in the house at the time
and was instantly killed. He was an
industrious man and well thought of.

my mince pie last week?"

MEDIATION A FAILURE.
inerican Delegates Rerome Disoour-J
aged?May End Friday.
Niagara Falls, June 16.?Justice!
iamar and Frederick W. Lehman, j
ie American delegates to the media-!
ion conference, went to Buffalo to-:
ight and talkel for four hours with
- 3 T ..j., !
latael zuoaran auu jlui& tauicia, j
ersonal representatives of Gen. Car- j
anza. Their purpose was to find!
ome way to bring the Constitution- i
lists in harmony with the scope of
lediation. The mission was a fail-j
reThe
Constitutionalists representa- j
ives told them why they could not j
gree to an armistice: why only a:
lan prominent in the Constitutional- j
>t rank could be accepted by them i
dt the provisional presidency and j
nally they said they believed the j
Constitutionalist army would settle j
lie Mexico problem soon if left un-i
ampered by foreign complications.'
The Americans returned to Xiaaara :
'alls feeling that so far as the politi- [
al pacification of Mexico is concern- j
d mediation had accomplished noth- i
ig and probably the end of the conerences
was very near.
The next full conference is set for j
'riday. Most of the principals here j
icline to the view that Friday's ses- j
ion may be the last. The three me- j
iatins plenipotentiaries virtually J
ave abandoned hope of solving Mex:an
problems and the Huerta deleates
are resolute in their determinaion
not to accept a Constitutionalist
artisan for the provisional presi-l
encv.
Dispatches of the forcible seizure
y an official of Gen. Villa of the teleraph
office at .Juarez, held previously
by Carranza officials, created a stir
i the mediation colony. The Huerta i
elegates said it showed plainly the ;
orrectness of their repeated warn-'
rigs that a lack of cohesion in the j
lonstitutionalist ranks would lead j
o anarchy in the north.
Incidentally it is understood the;
imerican delegates inquired of Ca-j
rera and Zubaran what they thought j
f the stories of a split between Villa j
nd Carranza. The Constitutionalist;
missaries said they had confidence in j
len. Carranza's tact and ability to;
mooth over such differences.
The gravest apprehension, never- j
lieless, is felt here of what may foi-J
o iipoal* hcfwPAn Garranza and !
'ilia. Should their forces clash, a j
ondition of anarchy might ensue,
-hich. in all probability, would;
rouse agitation and demand for arm- j
d intervention by the United States.

Alleges His Son Was Taken From
Constable and Lynched.
Suit has just been entered against
Clarendon county by Madison Cantey,
a negro resident of Paxville. as administrator
of the estate of his son.
Marion Cantey, for $2,000 damages
for the alleged lynching of the latter
in March of last year. It will doubt
less be called, as was reported n
The State at the time, that Marion
Cantev. a negro youth, was arrested
on a charge of assault and battery
with intent to kill, and after a preliminary
examination held by Magistrate
L. S. Barwick he was committed
to jail to await trial at the court of
general sessions. About 1 o'clock in
the night he was placed in the hands
of a constable and started to Manning
to be placed in jail. After proceeding
about four miles on the way, and
when about Tindall's mill, it is alleged
that he was forcibly taken from
the constable and summarily shot to
death by a mob of lynchers.
The case will probably come up for
trial at the September term of court.
Bryan Returns $10,325 Personality.
William Jennings Bryan, secretary
of state, is not a rich man outside of
his real estate holdings, if his person-1
al property schedule placed on file
with the county assessor at his home, |
t inpnin \"pb.. is an index. He will
pay 011 a total valuation of $10,325 J
personal property, while the Com- j
moner (weekly) is listed as possessing
personal property worth $6,616.
Bryan owns considerable real estate,
principally lots in Lincoln, his
home east of the city, some farm land
in Nebraska, a farm near Mission,
Tex., and a home in Florida.
His individual personal property
schedule is listed as follows:
Notes secured by mortgages, $3,S00:
other notes. $500; firearms,
$100; money oh hand and in bank,
$500; pictures and engravings, $500; !
pianos and other musical instruments,
$500; diamonds and other
jewelry, $750; household goods, $2.500;
scales $75: harness, $25, watches,
$300; carriages, $100; plate.
$300; other goods, $300.
.Mrs. Beatrice M. Van Der Perrin.j
who is being sued by Mrs. John D.
Oldrin for $25,000 for alleged alienation
of Oldrin's affections, in Jersey
City, N. J., testified that Oldrin left
his wife because she kept pictures of
former lovers in conspicuous places
about the house.
The Rev. William Frothingham,
journalist and author, 94, of Florida,
N. Y., has just announced his marriage
to Miss Ella Leavitt, which took
place 14 years ago. The marriage
was kept secret because Frothingliam's
sister, who died recently, objected
to his second marriage.
