The man who writes for the public
and comments on men and things as
he sees them, has a thorny 10a l to
travel. In an i.s^ue last week we at
tempted to indulge in a little pleas
antry at the expense of the .blood
hound, and to cull the attention of
the public to the possibilities sup
posed to be wrapped up in the tough
skin of the common hound. A few
days after the paper appeared we
received from a friend who lives fifty
miles away a congratulatory letter in
which Jibe article on the bh o.l
hound v.as declared to he tin* finest
thing that v.e had ever been known
to put up. In a half hour after
nad'i.g . ur friend's letter and while
we were still all aglow with the self-
satisfaction which it had inspired,
we opened Iasi Friday's issue ot i'he
Ledger, and Jo! about the* first thing
that met cur eyes was Chief Dun
can's grim and ominous protest
against that very article on the
blood hound.
W hat's a fellow to do under such
circumstances? Chief Duncan thinks
that the article was a wanton at
tack on him and an unwarranted
slander on the services of his dogs,
vCiile our unnamcU friend enj >ys the
article as if it had been gotten up
especially for his personal benefit.
Now, we want to say that we bad
neither the pleasing of the one nor
the injury of the other in view,
when we wrote that article, in fact
we did not have the name of either
one of these gentlemen in mind, and
wo wish to assure both that we are
not authority on dogs, and that wliut
we say of them either in praise or
dispraise, may well he taken with
many grains of allowance. We
write only our general impressions
and they are often in merest outline.
We know Chief Duncan only by
reputation as a gallant and faithful
officer, who lias rendered eminent
service to the cause of law and or
der, and at the time we wrote we
were perfectly oblivious of the fact
that he keeps blood hounds and also
of the services which these animals
had rendered. As to the dogs in
(lallney, the Chief’s assertion that
there never has been a blood hound
here, is disappointing and depress
ing. We remember distinctly that
wo subscribed a quarter for the pur
chase of them, and that afterwards
v.e paid It, and that after that we
were told by some one that “the
pups had come,” and we had been
resting satisfied that they were being
pampered and taught in some luxu
rious chamber in a quiet part of the
town, and that they were thriving
and fast growing into vigorous dog-
hood and ere long would leap forth
to avenge every insult ollered to the
magesty of law and would become a
perfect terror to all evil doers. And
now to be told that there never bus
been one hfrt! Chief, you ought
not to have so rudely dispelled our
drcnrii. Toll it not in Cath; publish
it not in the streets of Askalon, lest
the common hound howl with de
light ; lest the chicken thief crow in
triumph, and his daughters become
arrogant and hateful.
I NTOl.KKA 1.1.10.
On lust Sunday afternoon a large
crowd of men and boys, biack and
white, and a pack of hounds of all
colors and sizes assembled on the
play ground at Limestone and pro
ceeded to exhibit a panorama of a
fourth-of-July celebration in pros
pective. They went into bail train
ing w it ii a wimup and relish; tiny
lun bicycles with the dogs barking in
pursuit; and for hours they made
the .Sabbath air resonant with the
yelping of dogs and the discordant
shouts and yells of men and boys.
Now, we wish to give notice that
such assemblages cannot he allowed
at Limestone on tiie .Sabbath, and
such conduct can hardly he allowed
on any other day.
Limestone College will be delighted
to have the ladies and gentlemen of
CafTney or of any other place to en
joy themselves on the spring grounds
at any time, and of course on pub
lic occasions when ball games, bicy
cle riding and such things are in or
der, no objection whatever will bo
made to the boisterous enthusiasm
incident to such occasions. Uut if
the town is going to use the grounds
as a purl, for reeroation and amuse
ment, it must protect the college
against inotly crowds that have no
respect for decency and little regard HON. AMOS J. ICUMMUNGS.
for l ho snerodnees of the Sabbath.
We are sure that the crowd there
last. Sunday meant, no harm to any j
one, and were uttirly unconscious of
perpetrating any wrong. It needs
wholesome instruction, that is all.
We arc sure further that every good
citizen of Gullney will recognize the
reason and justice of these remarks.

At twelve years
Secretary of State Cooper pro
poses to have the State capitol build
ing in Columbia completed—a thing
ardently desired by every man who
cherishes any state pride. This
building was in process of construc
tion when the Civil War broke out.
Owing to the exigencies of the
times, it was hastily furnished with
such covering as would temporarily
protect it from the weather, and it
has stood in that unsightly condi
tion ever since. There has been
enough of the people’s money un
wisely and unjustly squandered on
suet luxurious buildings as those of
Clemson and Wintlirop, to have tin-
ished the Htate Capitol five times
over. But the bunding through all
“the days of good stealing.” and
through ail the days of extravagant
appropriations, has remained in its
dilapidated condition, an eyesore
and a disgrace to the whole State.
Let it be completed now. The peo
ple of the Slate should have one
building in which they can take a
common pride.

News from the Philippines is sub
jected to strict censorship and ail
reports given by our government may
b» regarded with suspicion, The
fad that large n iiiforecineiits are
being rapidly gathered and sent for
ward, is not favorable to a belief in
the speedy termination of the war.
Tiie w hole thing is a had piece of
business. The Columbia State
gives the whole situation in a nut
shell. when it says, “Thu I'niu-d
States lias been made to buy an
archipelago of many hundred is
let d.-, and after live luonlhs’ fight
ing ha. secured tiie involuntary de
livery of one tow n, one city and <10

So far as we know Cherokee
county has had good rains, but
many parts of the State are still
destitute. With a half crop of
wheat, the oat and (lie fruit crop a
failure, with the" potato bug and the
j corn borer getting in their work of
j destruction, with taxes going up.and
! products coming down, the farmer at
this time certainly has few oncolir-
j agements. But somehow he will get
| along and carry the world with him.

Moses Henderson is a sable son of
Africa and lives two miles from
! A m eric us in a rock field, where rut-
j tie snakes are most plentiful. Moses
J makes » living by capturing snakes
I and selling them. Whenever he can
not sell them lie eats them. This is
the truth, as strange as it may seem.
Last wuek lie killed a large one with
(•Iiveil rattles on it. This was a fat
I snake and Moses ate it. The other
d.iy he brought a very large snake to
the city, trying to suit its bide.
There were L’d rattles on it. The
snake was very poor, and Musts said
it would not do to cat, ami :;<■ Mulled
its hide and sold it for a g , U price.
Every year Moses makes a good deal
of money selling snake oil. He says
right down the vertebrate of a rattle
snake is a fatty streak of ll-sh that
makes an oil, when fried, that will
cure any case of rheumatism. Jt
is strange to how many people he
si - 11 s this rheumatic snake oil.
He has a long list of certificates
from people lie has cured. Some
of them are from intelligent whites,
who declare that the oil lias cured
when all other remedies have failed.
He sells a vial of the oil for one dol
lar and guarantees a lasting cure.
Moses says his father was an African
hoodoo doctor and taught him how
to cure all aches and pains with
snake oil. The negroes of Sumter
county venerate and fear him us a
Mysterious doctor who can cure
when all else fails, and look upon
his snake oil as something cnchsintt d

All doctors told IteniiK Hamilton,
of W« si Jt If. rson, ()., after sulTering
18 months from Rectal Fistual, he
would die unless a costly operation
was performed; hut lie cured himself
