(%tasl to neoolupany ianuseript. Cards of thiinks tiblt l)Ihed for one-half cent a word. Who said watermelons? "The bear that walks like a man" is now getting away in an automobile. The Dardanelles are right where they were before the Allies "took" them. Y/inston Spencer Churchill says the British navy is growing. It certainly is-less. The South Carolina editors had three quarts the best of North Carolina at the Montreat meet. Wonder what the editors of North Carolina said to the editors of South Carolina at Montreat last week? . While Uncle Sam has the old man in custody it might be a good scheme to take that salute away from Vic. Huerta by force. C A jug of whiskey, a pistol, a report of the pistol, one man dead, another in jail, two families in great trouble. i What caused the trouble? It is really gratifying to note from the want ads in the daily )al)ers that most of the advertisers now want n "jobs" instead of "positions." s A temperance orator says whiskey t has killed more men than bullets have. r1 Maybe so; but we know a lot of-men 8 who had rather be full of whiskey than c full of bullets! A new and fast automobile has been shipped to a Russian general. That I seems to be what the whole Russian army needs just now -something fast to get away on. The South Carolina Press association and Col. William Banks, editor of the Columbia Record, are both to be con gratulated upon the selection of Col. Banks as president. Each of the numerous presidenits Mex -- ico has had in the past few years having lootedl the treasury wh'len it came his turn, it would seem there would be nothing left to light for. A "lifty-car law'" may not interfere with some trains~ of thought, as Colonel A ftermath of the Statte says; and there are sonme trains ot thought we know of that eveni a handear wvould not inter fere1 with. Speaking of cruelty in this foreign wvar, here is the limit: German children in the Lemburg schools, during the Russian occuplation, were compelled to studIy the Russian language five hours each wveek! Wogo Tankositch is the name of the alssassin who starItedl the great Euro penn wvar. A name like that is calcu lated to start moat anything. Now, will some one give the world the name of the man who can or will stop) it?| D~on't all speak at once, but hurry up! Now wvould he a very good time for President Wilson to make that prom ised move in the Mexican mess. News from the aouthern republic indicates that that unhappy country is in a wvorse condition now than at any time since the wvar b~etwveen the various factions began. S3ome newspapers assert that it is our moral duty to let the Mexicans settle their own affairs. So it was in Cuba. There was only one excuse lacking to make the United States take hold in Cuba. That was furnished by the blow ing up of the Maine. What will be the excuse in the case of Mexico? Out-of-the-ordinary ~and unexpected things are happening all the time. The Panama-Pacific exposition is $61,000 ahead of the game, and it is thought it will pull thru without asking Uncle Sam to chip in and pull it out of a hole. And this, too, in spite of the fact that Col. Aftermath of the State won't be there with his roll! The melon-colic days are here, The gladdest of the year, Unless It be the season When we have old 'simmon beer! OUR WEEKLY RIDDLE. -What is more wonderful than a horse that can count? A spelling bee. Riddle for Next Week. -Why is the real estate man not a man of words? ',A % b~~UNK BOTTS 'R'eg Dame Rumor has it that the wedding bells will ring ere long in this immediate vicinity. It I is intended that the wedding will be a great surprise to every one except the bride, the groom i and the preacher. It will be a very quiet one, without any noise of any description ex- I cept possibly the sweet strains 1 of the Excelsior Fiddling Band, of which the groom has been a member of long standing. The wedding is to i take place at high noon next|] Saturday at the home of the h bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. I I Fletcher Henstep on the Gander Jreek road. After the preacher Itc ias been settled with, the groom x vill immeditely depart on a vedding trip to Tickville, and vill be gone all day. The bride 1 s planning to accompany him. e The bride will be handsomely I Ltired in her new dress, while i he groom will alter his every lay appearance by putting on Is coat and standing collar. t This will be the culmination c f a happy romance covering t iany years, starting when the i ride was young and beautiful. I With killing going on wholesale in tost .of Europe, murder, rapine and tarvation existing in Mexico, soldiers uarding the home of the chief execu ive of one of our great states from a iob, makes one think that all this talk bout humanitarianism, freedom, edu ation and enlightenment is not what' t is cracked up to be. Some things one reads in some news apers don't even rise to the dignity of )eing called "rot." The latest story ;o be widely circulated by the enemies )f 'Mr. Bryan is to the effect that he ,ras'o become a citizen of North Caro ina and run for the United States sen Ate against either Senator Simmons or Benator Overman. Whatever Mr. Bry an's faults, and they are said to be many, no one has yet accused the great Commoner with being insane. We have his wvord for it that his home is in Ne braska and probably always will be. Some cities now have the jitnev bus "for colored only." That's a good idea. The colored brother and sister can al ways be depended on to follow the lead af the "white folks," and for that very reason we should not lead them astray. No matter what it is-good or evil-the white men and women are always looked to as guides for the blacks If the white man is always law-abiding he will have a great influence with those who attempt to imitate him And so if Sambo and Dinah want a jitney bus it is far better for th'em andl the whites that they have one of their owni instead of butting in "where angels fear to tread."
