Two gilded youths In New Or
leans encountere l a friendless tramp
ut the door of a saloon as they were
about to enter. They worn in eve
ning dress, and ns they observed the
wanderer in tatters, one offered him
a dime witli which to purchase “an
extinguisher," but when he reached
llto counter, the other youth pro
posed a treat for the ‘‘Hobo’’ if he
would make a speech. The tramp
assented. He tremblingly swallowed
down the drink, and as the rich
liquor coursed through his blood, he
straightened himself and stood
before them with a grace and dignity
that all his rags and dirt could not
obscure.
‘‘(.entle.nen," he said, "I look to
night at you and at myself, and it
seems to me I look upon the picture
of my lost manhood. The bloated
face was once as young and hand
some as yours. This shambling
figure once walked as proudly as
yours, a man in a world of men. I,
too, onee had home and friends and
position. I had a wife as beautiful
as an artist’s dream, and I dropped
the priceless pearl of her honor and
respect in the wine cup. and Cleo
patra-like, saw it dissolve, and
quaffed it down in the brimming
draught. I had children as sweet
and lovely as the flowers of spring,
and I saw them fade and die under
the blighting curse of a drunkard
father. I had a home where love lit
the flame upon the altar and minis
tered before it, and I put out the
holy fire, and desolation reigned in
its stead I had aspirations and
ambitions that soared as high as the
morning star, and I broke and
bruised their beautiful wings, and,
at last, strangled them that I might
lie tortured with their cries no more.
Today I am a husband without a
wife, a father without a child, a
tramp with no home to call his own,
a man in whom every good impulse
is dead. All, all swa'lowed up in
the maelstrom of drink."
The tramp ceased speaking. The
glass fell from his nerveless fingers
and shivered into a thousand frag
ments ob the floor. The swinging
doors pushed open and shut to again,
and when the little group about the
bar looked up the tramp was gone.

Discussions are frequently heard
and many shades of opinion are given
regarding the ability of the various
South Carolina judges. The question
of ability and knowledge of law are
freely and openly discussed iiy many
who are not members of the bar and
who are not personally affected hy
tin* courts. Even judges are not
immune from criticism and their
mistakes are frequently noted by the
uninitiated. However, the supremo
court is Hu* only body which has of
ficial supervision over the work of
the circuit court judges, and the re
cords of that august tribunal are Hie
only tangible means by which a just
comparison may be made. The re
cords are liable to public inspection
and it is no crime to look up authori
ties even on this subject. While the
supreme court is hardly perfect in
legal loro and general wisdom, yet it
is the highest resort in the matter of
common law.
Mr. Adam C. Welborn, a Creen-
villo attorney, taking notice of the
diversity of opinion as to the ablest
ami most learned judge, recently
looked through volumes 17• f)2, in
clusive, of the South Carolina reports
and noted the decisions on all cases
for two years. These volumes em
brace the work of ten judges, two of
whom uru no longer in the judiciary,
and one, Judge Gage, whose short
service hardly affords a fair test.
The number of cases reported with
the number of circuit court decisions
sustained and the number reversed
are respectively shown as follows:
Aldrich. 1 sustained and 12 re
versed; Ifenet, AS and 21; Buchanan,
2ti and Id; Gary. 22 and 7; Towns
end, 22 and id; Walts, dl and 20;
Kltigh, JO and 4.
The percentage of reversals is as
follows: Gary, 2d 1-d; Klugh, 2d;
Aldrich, dd 1-d; Buchanan, dd d 41;
Townsend, dti 1-9; Benct, dS 22-di;
Watts, 39 II dl.
According to the South Carolina
reports, thereof, the decisions of
.Indgo Ernest Gary, of the fifth cir
cuit, arc more generally correct titan
those of any other, and it is fair to
say that his ability is generally rec
ognized.

Dr. M. o. Terry, surgeon general of
New York Stale, says tno Springfield
Republican, recently declared that it
is rarely necessary to use the knife
for the cure of appendicitis, and Dr.
It. T. Morris, of Now York city, took
issue with him and challenged him
to give the record of ten patients
treated without surgery. "Dr. Terry
in reply gave the record of these ten
cases, showing that every one of
them has recovered, and he adds ten
new cases with equally favorable re
cords. Dr. Terry then adds that, as
he glances backward and recalls the
prominent persons, us, for instance,
the Mexican minister. Norrnani L.
Monroe, Senator Taber, Warren
Ltdand and others who hud appendi
citis, were operated upon and died,
he wonders whether if the oil treat
ment, consisting of a cathartic of cas
tor and sweet oil, had been adopted,
these men would not have been
saved. In further re-i n force men t of
his condition, Dr. Terry rofors t>
Col. Senn, of Chicago, chief surgeon
of the I’nited States volunteers in
the war with Spain, who declares
that it is amu/ing that, in these daya
of appendicitis rage, of Hie many
thousand soldiers who landed at
- Camp WikolT, at Mon tank, not one
j case of appendicitis catno under his
, notice that would justify an opera-
! Hun. Of Ho three cases of supposed
appendicitis sent to the surgical
, ward, only one was subjected to sur-
| gicul treatment."

self into trouble by marrying two
wives. A western editor replied by
assuring his contemporary that a
good many men in that section had
done the same tiling by marrying
one. A northern editor rt ports that
quite a number of his acquaintances
found trouble enough by marrying
one without going any further. A
southern editor says a friend of his

found in company with another

That truth is strauger than lictiou is
illustrated by the following true story,
relates the Lapeer Press: About 40
years ago a hoy was kicked by a horse.
The physician attending the case found
his skull was broken, and a good share
of his brains had leaked out. Thinking
to do the best lie could and knowing it
would not do to leave ttio place vacant,
the doctor took buckwheat flour, and,
making a thick batter, trephined the
skull and tilled the cavity. That boy
lived and grew to bo a man, wciglw 2a0
pounds and is smart as most uiou.

Refreshing showers have fallen
throughout the stale. It seems
that the unprecedented drought has
at last broken. In some sections no
rain of any consequence lias fallen
since early in April. Other sections
have been visited by local showers,
but in many places the condition of
crops is distressing. One of the fore
most farmers of a neighboring county
remarked that he would willingly
give his crop to any one who would
pay hisguuuo bill. In one county it
Is reported that there are six hundred
farms that will nut produce one bale
of cotton to the farm. In some coun
ties merchants are having stock
thrown back on their hands. Bank
ruptcy stares many in the face. In
some states floods have caused de
struction to life and property. There
seems to be an unequal distribution
j of rain. The clouds are coquetish.
j The year seems to bo dividing it e f
1 into rainy seasons.
Now an opportunity is presented
for the goverment to show interests

Tho summer school for teachers of
Cherokee county is now on the home
stretch and bids fair to do its best
work during this tho last week of the
session.
Brof. Blake and Townes have been
faithful and regular, and not a reci
tation has been neglected. The
teachers have had plenty of work to
do in each department, and no doubt
they will receive such an impetus for
good that Hie public schools of the
county will be greatly beneiitted.
Brof. Blake leaches Arithmetic and
Geography, and from what we see his
work is not only helpful to teachers
but is often highly entertaining and
inspiring to others. He is a model
gentleman and we are glad to have
him with us.
Brof. Townes has charge of the
English department and is quite
earnest in showing our teachers how
to parse and analyze sentences. He
also requires his class to write com
positions, some of which are very
good indeed. ^
One of the best indicanons of the
summer school is the sacritice which
many of our teachers are making
to attend. Men have left their crops
and women are driving over ten miles
each morning in order to get some
thing new to carry to their schools
during the coming session. Such
teachers ought to be favored with
good places and good pay.
The Ledger offers its host wishes
both to instructors and teachers.
