William Shaw and (leorgo Slmw,
brothers, were at Sugg's store. They
seemed bent on painting tilings red.
One witness testified that Bradley
said during the afternoon that he
was going to paint Bed Bluff rod before
sunset.
Beedy Chestnut, the deceased, was
a white laborer hauling staves to Mr.
Suggs's still. There had been some
previous misunderstanding between
William and Chestnut about a coat.
The first meeting between them on
that occasion was when William up
proached Chestnut at Mr. Sugg's
stables, where Chestnut "as feeding
his mules. William dunned him for
payment for the coat. Chestnut
said he could not pay then, but
would do so. William and Bradley
followed Chestnut into the stables,
where they had an altercation, when
Chestnut drew a razor to defend himself.
Subsequently Chestnut went
to the barn for corn, William fol
lowing, and as Chestnut was entering
the dt?or William seized him by
the tail of his coat and tore off one of
the peices.
The Shaws then went to Suggs's
store. After feeding the stock,
Chestnut also went to the store to
settle with Mr. Suggs, William and
Bradley were in the ollice of the
store when (as one witness testified)
William borrowed a pistol from
Bradley. Bradley cautioned him
how he used it. William said:
"Damned if I don't kill him before
sunset." At this time Chestnut was
in the body of the store.
After doing his trading. Chestnut
started through tho ofllce to go out
of the itore. In the ofllce the quarrel
was nenewed. Chestnut again
drew his razor. Mr. Suggs, hearing
the altercation, sent word to Bradley
Shaw to quet it; Bradley did soChesnut
then went to the olliee door
and stood there. William passed
him, and as lie got on tlw ground he
reached back and seized Chestnut's
pants, jerking him. Chestnut slashed
at him with the razor, but did not
touch him. William then cursed
him and dared him for a "fair fight,"
but Chestnut showed no disposition
to tight. Shaw started oil.
After getting off some distance,
William stopped, told Chestnut to
do his talking now, tnd not to brag
when they got away. Chestnut made
some reply, when the three Shaws
came hack, walking fast. They came
up to Chestnut who retreated, brandishinnr

oCf?one at a time." Bradley, with
knife drawn and hand raised in a
striking position, commanded ('host
nut to put up his razor. Chestnut
did not put it up, but still waved it
between him and his assailants,
William then kicked Chestnut twice.
Two of the witnesses then say Brad
ley shoved Chestnut, stepped aside,
and said, "Shoot the damned
"
Instantly William drew bis pistol
and, it seems, fired before he expected,
the ball striking Bradley in the
jaw and ho dropped as dead. One
witness testified that Bradley knocked
up the pistol, but most of the witnesses
put Bradley and William too
for apart for Bradley to have reached
the pistol, nearest being two
steps (It was a Smith and Wesson
self-cocker.)
Chestnut sprang to run. George
Shaw exclaimed, "Shoot him Bill,

President, Cleveland is no demagogue
to delegate his prerogative mid shift
the responsibility of making appointments

else.
The news from Washington is
particularly exhilarating, Much day
brings "glad tidings of great joy"
for those who love their country and
desire the best men for the plaecs in i
tlie public service. The President is
inflicting some awful shocks upon
the peddling oflieials in the Congress
from the various States. lie is
a battery of tremendous power, and
sends hourly a thrill and a shiver
that shake these follows to their mid
riIT a:.d fn-m "capstone to founda
tion. An old time chill or an ague
was weak to the Arctic wave that
comes fron Mr. Cleveland to the
men who would usurp his power or
make him a figurehead. We hope
most sincerely that he will continue
to shock arid disturb the would ho
bosses, lie means to break the
slates, and already good has come for
the visits of the usurpers are much
less frequent to the White House
now, and t he President's arm is luiv

intend to permit his constitutional
prerogative to (ill all offices to l>e interfered
with or to be abridged hi
the least. That is right, and that is!
what is needed, and that is what the
good people everywhe e should
like.
Mr. Cleveland has stated that, he
desires to hear front the people. lie1
wishes them to speak relative to the
selection of till important otlices such
as postmasters, customs officers, reve- '
nue collectors, marshals, etc. He,
will not allow the old, bad rul.? to
prevail?for members of Congress to'
put in their heelers and heqehmen
and special friends and kin. lie
does not like nepotism in olliee, and
ho shows it by precept and example.
What the President desires in an ap
plieant is litness and character, and,
while willing to accept the testimony
of Congressmen, he will he glad
to have information from the people
on these points. In the past in -n
have been appointed to office upon
the recommendation of Congressmen^
who were subsequently found to be j
entirely unworthy and unfitted to'
discharge the duties involved. He
found out when in ollice before that
he was often deceived and hood
winked and made on account of it
some unfortunate selections.

W ashington, March 31.?The Roform
Congressmen from South Ciro
lini sent the following letter to
President Cleveland to-niglu:
Mr President: You tire aware
of the unfortunate factional division
of the Democratic party in South
Carolina. It, did not arise by reason
of any national issue, hut tlio result
of an effort, looking to the reformation
of the local government in that
State. The factious are known as
Reform and Anti Reform' Thel
undersigned members of Congress
represent what, is known* in South !
Carolina as til-* Hcform element in
local polities. We have made every
effort consonant with the dignity of
the positions we hold in fairness and
justie?> to equitably d'vido the patronage
of our State in a delegation
meeting, hut failed on account of the
minority refusing to co operate with
us in a proposition in line with the
custom that has prevailed inimctuo*
rially in Congress. It, is now your
province to settle this matter aecor-1
ding to what to you see ins good and '
proper.
At a mooting of the undersigned ,
o o
it was unanimously agreed to recommend
to Hon. S. I'ope, of No wherry,
S. C. for the position of marshal; the
Hon. I. 11. McCalla, of Abbeville
County, for the collector of internal
revenue; the Hon. Joseph II. Ivtrle,
of (Jreenville, for Cnited States district
attorney, and the lion. A. M.J
Youmans, of Hampton, S. C. for
collector of the port of lleaufort.
All of these names belong to our
faction except the Hon. .1. II. Earle,
who was the nominee for (lovHrnor
of the other faction against (iovern !
or 15. I?\ Ti 11iiiiiii in 1800. Ilis at j
titu lo toward our faction since that
tune has hecn that of a Conservative!
in t he strict sense of the word, and |
he occupied the peculiar and strik -j
ing position of standing between the
two tactions enjoying i heconfidonce
and respect of both. Wo concede
this position to him because we know
that his appointment would give
universal sat sfaction and pleasure
to both factions.
We honestly believe that we are
entitled to three fifths of this patron-age
on account of the numerical
strength of our faction, il being
00.000 out of the 00.000 white hem
oer.uic voters ol the State We hop"
that you will regard this us our
final appeal for the recognition of
the I tomoerats whom we have the

Washington, April 51, 1S0I3.
Three sensations in a single week
is certainly piling on the agony,
even for Washington. People had
hardly recovered from the shock of
the ijiipiccedented proposition made
on the lloor of the Senate, to investigate
the charges of criminal embezzlement
made against Senator
Poach, of North Dakota, when another
sensation was sprung upon
ii,,.... i.., m.?
i ii"in u) i n; ituipni iit'i'ini'iii tiiclt
Secretaries Carlisle an?J Gresham lmd
discovered that ex-Secretary of Slate
Foster, who is S. agent before
the Behring Sea ('oiirt of Arbitration,
was distributing I.tide Sum's money
with a lavish hand, in the shape of
allowances for expenses to favored
government employes whom ho has
taken to Paris with him. Among
these are Major llalford. who was
President Harrison's private secre
ary, and who was made a paymaster
in the army just before the close of
the last administration, at a salary
of about ?3,500 a year; .1. Stanley
Hiown, wh ? was President Garfield's
private secretary and is the husband
of Mollin Garfield, who holds a State
department position paying $10 a
day, and a number of other government
employes. The allowance made
to the two ex private secretaries,
in addition their regular salary, is j
$15 ti day, and to the others in pro- <
portion. It is claimed that no necessity
existed for taking these people
to Paris, and licit it is simply a
pleasure trip at government expense
for them. The third sensation was
the bringing of charges against the
Weather Bureau, of general crookedness
ever since it was transferred
from the war to the Agricultural
I )epurtment, involving favoritism,
violation and evasion of the Civil
Scrvi ) law by tho employment of
incompetent persons at fancy salaries
ami plain common, every day steal
ing, all of which proves conclusively
if anv proof were neeeded, that all
branches of the public service stand
m need of a thorough overhauling
occasionally.
The hottest fight yet made against
a Presidential appointment is now
being waged against .1. .1 iMcAlister,
reomtly nominated, hut not
yet confirmed, to he 1*. S. Marshall
for Indian Territoy. Charges have
been preferred against MoAlcster
by \\. P. Weeks, ehairmau of the
democratic committee of the territory,
and they have been liled with the
President and with Senate committee.
Mc A tester, who is hero, is
lighting hack, and says he is confident
of being confirmed*
There is much uneasiness among
the higher officials in the Department
of State on account of the
rumor, generally believed, that Secretary
(tresham has a little list of
employes, all in the upper grades,
that he intends to dismiss for ineHioieney.
Those having occasion to
visit that Department often will do
no grieving if there is a general
shake up among its bureau chiefs,
some of whom have long been vie
tiins of tho disease known as the
"big head."
After many conflicting statements,
pro and c >n, the question of an extra
session of Congress has been definitely
settled by President Cleveland,
ihe only man who had the
authority to settle it. There is to
he an extra session, and it will he
cune.t to meet early in September,
the principal object being to puss u
turili' bill in time to go into effect
in the spring of 1804. It is a big
tusk, and judging from past experience
in that line tlio administration
will be lucky if the new tariff bill
gets through by the first of duly, of
next year.
No position under their government
is more sought after than that
of government printer. He has
more patronage, outside of the Civil
Service restrictions, than the head
of any other bureau, to say nothing
of the control of large disbursements
for printing material etc. There
ire a legion of candidates, some
from almost every section of the
country. I'resident Cleveland says
he will not make the selection for
several weeks yet,*and that when he
does he intends to appoint a man
..Ksv I 1 * ?. I-W i-U ^ iv - - <
?iii wil\u iiiu UIIICC OUt OL
politics uiul run iii on a business
luisis. That will be an innovation indee
1, as there lias been more politics
to ilie square inch in that office
than in any other branch of the
government service, and although
Air. Cleveland's intentions may be j
good, it is very doubtful whether ;
he can succeed in banishing politics j
therefrom.
I here is an impression here that
the Senate will adjourn as soon as
it has decided whether the Senators
appointed by the governors of Montana,
Washington and Wyoming

begins to look oh though that decision
would bo in the affirmative.
If that ho correct. Sentor Hoar's
resolution directing an investigation
of the charge of embezzlement
against Senator Koach will not he
aote ! up n, nor will the new officers
nominated by t he detnocratic caucus
ho elected until next fall.

realms where the mind loses sight
of time and space, and comes mto
ivlat'on wi'h the 60iirces of universal
wisdom.
lint there is reading muf reading.
To read for instruction is one tiling,
for amusement another. What to
read ami how to read, is a questi n
of moment.
A large majority of iho children
of this country obtain all ti e instruction
they ever receive at school
in the primary grades. Statistics
prove that uitietuen-twertieths of
our juvenile populati >n leave sehool
at the age of eleven years A serious
question, then, confronts every
teacher: " I low can 1 do the most
for these future citizens during the
brief time allotted to their school
training?"
Teachers should Ining last
,i ?. r r . I
tnougms or mon 01 genius into the
class-room, not niereiy as sentences
t<? l>e parsed, but their great utter
i?neis should, for their own sake, be
placed before our pupils, hecaus-e
they are inspiring ami elevating
The writings of the great and good,
brought into the class room, incite i
the pupil to nobler thoughts, higher j
lining. They touch his imagination,
quicken his mental pulse.
Teachers should strive to cultivate a
taste Hint desire, on the part of their
pupils, for good, strong, and healthful
reading.
There is no douht about it?the
nature ot reading, the kind of books
and papers read by a person, tell the
character of such. We are building
up our characters and lives by the
hooks we read. I low careful, then, i
should every teacher he to have the
proper reading in the school room,
while lie has these "embryonic citizens"
under his care, whose character
lie is helpfng to form.
The young naturally like to read
stories. It is, to a high degree, the
fault of the teacher if tho child, to
satisfy his inherent longings, Steals
away to revel in the delights of "yellow-covered
literature." Every ef
fort ought to be d reeled from the
outset to shaping the mind of the | J
[hi[mi, so mm, wnen no longer under <
the teacher's care, he may ho ahlo to
choose ihe r'ght intellectual food for
himself. Next to the development
of a worthy character, the highest 1
thing a school may give toils pupil
is the formation of a wise reading
habit . If a child's mind has been
nourished by proper reading matter |
while at school, it is proper to sup i
pose he will seek that which is pure '
and elevating in after life. The in- '
terest will not stop within the walls
of tho school-room.
' Besides the education which ,
schools and colleges impart, there is
still another kind necessary to com
pleteness. It is that which has for
it8 object a knowledge of polite literature.
1 n the intercourse of polished
society, a young perron will more
frequenty need an acquaintance with
the creations of fancy than with the
creations of fancy than with the dis
coteries of science or the speculations
of philosophy."

The Book of.fob, as it is incorporated
in the Bible, is believed to be i
the most ancient literary work in
existence. It is known to have been
waitten prior to the Pentateuch, and
prior to the promulgation of the law.
In profane literature he poems of
Homer are the most ancient th it
have comedown to our day, though
the names of others sidl older are in
existence. The Pentateuch was
written about the year 1451 B. C.,
and the Homeric poems about G40

which made a manuscript of 120
feet long and a cubit and a half (27
inches) wide The first book printed
on movable types was the Hook
of Psalius, by Faust and Sehaeffer,
which was completed August 14,
1457. Several plate or "block"
works were printed before this, but
the secret of their production was
known only to tho printers, who so'd
the books as manuscripts, getting a
very high price for them.
