ENGLAND AND THE BOERS.

It W he wondered at that England is
ttaorting herself to maintain her

Hngland however is cautious, and
her Increased naval force, and her
concentration of troops may be de
fensive merely. The boors are in the
way of England's progress, and at
the gaiao time they seem to be the
peculiar petu of Germany. When

currents he mapped out his course,

with the hardiest seaman—he
fearlessly committed himself to the
wdnAs and waves.
Other arctic explorers who have
proceeded Dr. Nansen do not credit

benefit to the world to know whether

REPRESENTATIVE TALBERT.
Again Mr. Talbert is brought to
bis feet in the 1 House uf Representa
tives. He watches, as he should, the
public treasury, and opposed the
paying of a pension to the widow of a
soldier after the widow had remar
ried. This wo' thy act called down
on his head and, through him, on
Hni'.h C iioiina tin* wrath of the Ca
nadian born representative of a wes
tern state. In a very quiet way he
was fciloncul by t'e n-pr.'sentntive
from l-'ou.h Carolina who faced the
t iu'iny from b> ginning to end of the
lute war and never once saw the ro
doubta'do Canadian. Mr. Talbert
will never sit idly by and hear his
state traduced, without resenting the
attack. In this he lias the sympathy
of all true-hearted South Carolinians.
He deserves well of his state, and she
will not fail still further to honor
him for his services.
PRESS OPINION.
GEORGIA TO THE FRONT.
Sooth Carolina cannot hold all the
honors In Congress. Tillman in the
Sennto and Talbert in the House
h*vo been the observed of all observ
er*. b»t they cannot keep the monop
oly. Crisp and Turner from Georgia
have diverted the tide for a season.
It might have been expected that
the ex-speaker would lead the final
charge of the froc-silver # men, but
who would have thought that Massa
chusetts and New York would have
been passed over by the sound money
men and a representative from Geor
gia selected to round up the argu
ment. But the sequel showed that
the Ways and Means committee
knew what they were about when
they pnt up Turner as their cham
pion. Turner Is hard to put down.
In every attack—and they were
many-—he showed hhiioclf «quid'tu

Di.ai -sni Rc, S. C . Feb. INth.—
Nothing definbe lias been learned
concerning the whereabouts of Reese
and Lackey, the accused asus ins of
Williams, although it is said Reese is
hiding in the immediate vicinity.
Lackey’s trunk was shipp'd from
this place to some point in Georgia,
b it he has probably not gotten if yit.
The office at that, place bus has been
unified to ho on the lookout. Reese
lias retained Lawyer Harr, of York-
vi I lo, so it is.said. Hart has the repu-
taion of being the best criminal law
yer in the count}'. Interest in this
unfortunate affair is quietly dying
out.
Joe Atkins n, the gonial dispatch
er for the .Southern at this place, has
been homo several days on account
of sickness.
The telephone lino to Gaffney is
progressing nicely. The polos are up
as far as Cherokee.
Dr. and Mrs. W. D. Ring, who
have been t he guests of Superintend
ent Tripp and family, have returned

Business is picking up a little and
some building is going on.
Strangs Adventure of a Letter.
An interesting chapter has just been
added to the history of letters. It has
been supplied by tho adventures of a let
ter which M. Henri Rochefort wrote to
a member of his family shortly after
hi.; escape from tho seclusion of Deeos,
a good many years ago now. It is dated
from on beard tho mail steamer which
was, at i ho time of writing, convoying
M. Rochefort from Australia to San
Francisco. It relates tho bold breast
stroke tho writer made for freedom
through a kou of sharks to tho British
bark, in which ho presently vanished
from tho gaze of his custodians. And it
gives a lively picture of M. Rochefort
and the skipper, Captain Law, peram
bulating the streets of Sydney, the cap
tain pulling up at every corner to clasp
his shipmate to his heart in true British
sailor fashion. Further details are re
served for viva voce communication, and
no doubt were communicated.
But tho letter never reached its in
tended recipient, and she reads it now
for tho first time in tho columns of a
Paris newspaper. For M. Rochefort had
reasons for not troubling tho French post
al authorities with its delivery. Ho in
trusted it to a follow passenger. Tho
latter got to Paris, but ho didn’t feel
well. Ho ho put tho letter in his library.
Thou fio died, and liis library was sold.
Part of that got into a book box on the
t^uais. Out of that book box a purchaser
picked a volume. In tho volume he
found the letter. Now, with the writer’s
consent, he has printed it.—Pall Mall
Gazette.
Best Family Medicine.
Mr. C. N. Jones, Girard, Ala., says,
May Pith, 1895: ”1 was suffering
from Catarrh in tho head and was
cured by King’s Royal Germotuer.
We keep it all'the time, and be
lieve that it is tho best family medi
cine there is on tho market today.”

DWARFS IN THE PYRENEES.
A New Theory to Acconnt For a Race of
Little I’coplo In Spain.
There has long dwelt in tho heart of
tho Pyrenees on tho old Catalonian bor
der of Spain a curious race of dwarfs,
supposed by some to bo of Tartar origin.
A writer in a recent issue of Cosmos
describes them and advances a theory of
their origin in cousunauco with modern
anthropology.
They inhabit tho valley of tho Ribas
in tho northwestern part of tho Span
ish province now called Gerona. They
never exceed 51 inches in height, and
have short, ill formed legs, great bel
lies, small eyes, Hat noses and pale, un
wholesome complexions. They are usu
ally stupid, often to tbo verge of idiocy,

It is said that formal marriage in al
most unknown among thorn. Tho w om
en in some instances aro employed iu
tho village of Ribas as nurses for chil
dren, and an such aro found tender and
faithful. Before communication through
out tho region was an easy as it in now
it wan thought lucky to have one of
these dwarfs in a family, and the dwarfs
were hired out and oven sold to bo used
in beggary in neighboring cities. There
aro somewhat similar dwarfs in other
valleys of the Pyrenees, hut tho number
is decreasing, and those of tho Ribas
valley are reduced to a few individuals.
The writer of The Cosmos article re
jects the theory of a Chinese origin for
tho dwarfs, and believes that they aro
merely the degenerate descendants of
tho ordinary natives, ill nourished for
generations upon a diet of potatoes and
black bread. Tho fact that with im
proved means of communication the
dwarfs aro decreasing helps to confirm
tho writer’s theory, and ho behoves that
with proper nourishment and decent
shelter their descendants would gradu
ally return to the normal type. Mean
while tho neighbors of tho dwarfs look
upon them with a curious mixturo of
feelings. The fact that tho dwarfs driuk
much at a particular mineral spring has
given rise to a superstition that who
ever drinks of it will become deformed,
and tbo normal natives aro horrified to
gco visitors experimenting with the
dreaded waters. There is reason to be
lieve that tho waters of tiio spring aro
beneficial to the i;iomach:i of well nour
ish d persons, but injurious to these
who aro accustomed to an unwholesome
diet, and it is entirely possible that tho
ill fed dwarfs havo been injured by
