A railroad train loaded with human beings ought not to l*c allowed to ran on to a bridge, the condition of which is in the least degree doubtful. And vet if that ill-fated train which plunged headlong into the gorge near Mc Donough had been held at Macon over night on a voiint d t ht dan gets ahead, it is more than likely that every single passenger would .have vehemently protested and some would, perhaps have gone so fur a* to sue .he r,>au for failing to put them into Atlanta in time to meet , „ * , , ... i heahug up of cancerous sores on ttie some business engagement which, . ■ , „. :l , promised thousands of dollars and j 111 / which fell through because the rail-i j. .. . . he is cured, but the disease is in the opinion ground, that Hoyt and McSweeney arc leading the race for governor and that the rest are not in it.

Columbia, June 2(*.—The week ending 8 a.m., June 25th, averaged about (5 degrees per day cooler than usual, with minimum temperatures ranging between 55 and 72, and maximum temperatures between 70 and 93 degrees. The lowest temper atures prevailed during the first half of the week. The average rainfall for the week was 2.85 inches, ranging from less than 1 inch to 0 inches. The heaviest rains occured in the west central and in the southeastern counties, where lands were badly washed, and crops on many bottom lands were flooded and destroyed. The rains injured cotton, some corn, melons, and wheat in the shock—causing sprouting— over the western and south central counties, but were either highly beneficial or not harmful elsewhere, and they improved rice, tobacco gar dens and pastures, and minor crops generally. Over a large portion of the State cultivation was impracti cable, except on from one to three days, consequently fields are be coming grassy, and all field crops stand in need of cultivation. These conditions were at their worst in the western half of the State, while over the northeastern counties there has been no harmful excess of rainfall, and crops of all kinds are very prom ising. Sunshine was deficient over the entire State. Corn is generally doing well, bat some is turning yellow and is firing, while on bottom lands, in the western portions, much was destroyed by f... i flooding. Larly torn is being laid by. ut of employment for b J . , , . ° ... . ^ i here was general deterioration in been Kept months, gives some promise of early jj ie condition of cotton in the western counties and in the upper Edisto val ley where some has not been chopped to stands, and fields are foul with settlement. But ali settlements that may be patched up will have only a temporary existence. These set tlements are closely analogous to the The patient will re- fur a few days in the hope that road failed to come up to time. Jn tho mud of rush modern life dangers are ignored or regarded with contempt; time and space, if they cannot be completely obliterated, must Lie compressed into tho smallest possible compass; and men will risk their lives, their families, their all, rather than be thwarted ic: their pur poses or delayed for one hour in their wild pursuit of wealth and material advantage. The trains must run. and steam must he crowded on until they rival the tornado in destructive power and the during lightnings in speed. All tl must be done in order that the mails may be delivered to the minute and that men may meet each other and drive sharp bargains in stocks and merchandise—it must be done, though widows and orphans wail and great cargoes of Jiving freight are hurled down precipitous mountain sides or into muddy rush ing rivers. There is not a more pitiable spec tacle in the sight of angels and all superior intelligence than lids in tense strain of mind, heart, and soul—this crazy expenditure of life and its energies—this mad, wild, ever-accelerated rush in the pursuit of a phantom which vanishes with the tone. 1 of un eldorado that ever mocks and tantalizes its eager pant ing pursuers; and and just us long us this delusion continue the people will demand modes of transit of ever increasing rapidity and just so long the railroad companies, who are a part of the people, will strive to meet the demand by ftintt r schedules, building engines adapted to still greater speed, and by tistiiining greater and still greater risks; and just so long, such u holocaust as that near McDonough's will bo among the things to be expected. We have but u very slight endorse ment to put upon the average dam age suit aguifsl the railroads, in the first place there is something pitiable and eor.teirptibh ip the ef fort to measure the value of a hu man life in dollars and cents; and in the next place the man who volun tarily boards a railroad train, does so with the full knowledge of the risks he is incurring. Further, while i tho road companies may not have | any intense regard for the mt s of passengers, it is not to be supposed that they are indifferent 1;> their own property. The smashing of one fine car is p. serious loss to them, and self Jintorest will always prompt us careful management on their part us practicable. But they must strain blood and the sores will return at the same p'ace or on oilier parts of the body with more virulence than ever. The causes of these strikes lie deep in the blood of the republic or the ruling party of the republic. The situation in China grows daily more serious. It is claimed by our government that it is not at war with China, and yet heavy fighting is go ing on in. which Americans tire tak ing u part and tl e government is sending large bodies of troops from Manila to tho scene of action. Li Hung Chang, the eminent Chinaman, bogs the foreign governments not to advance on Pekin until he has had time to get there and settle matters by having the heads of the Boxer leaders all cut off, but nobody pays any attention to this request. •Eng land wants territory, the L'nited States wants trade, Russia wants both territory and trade and the earth besides, and altogether, mis chief is afoot on a big scale. Al ready it is rumored that there has been a disruption between the Rus sians and the Anglo-Americans, and that the Russians will act indepen dently of the other forces. The rumor may be premature, but it is premonitory of what is almost cer tain to happen. Different bands of robbers cannot long act together in harmony when they are engaged in big schemes of murder and plunder, mid the most serious tune may come after China Khali have boon crushed.

In many places they have been more destructive than ever before known. They have already affected the price of the next crop of cotton and it may be that Providence will continue to look af ter tho farmer for at least another year, when it is hoped the farmer will he capable in a measure of look ing after himself. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The great prosperity which the Republican party boasts of and upon which it goes before the country for four more years of power, is the pros perity of trusts and corporations and not oflndivlduals and masses.

There is more or less complaint of grassy fields from ali sections, and cotton is in urgent need of dry, hot, weather to permit cultivation and for its normal development. Tobacco has improved.

The North Pacolet Interdenomina tional Sunday School Convention met at Wilson’s Chapel on the fourth Sun day in June, that being the place ap pointed to meet six months previous; hut owing to the inclemency of the weather the convention did not meet in March, but let the appointment stand. The convention was called to order by President J. L. Strain. The chaplain being absent, Brother J.C. Thompson led in devotional exercises. The following schools reported with delegates: Abingdon Creek, R. E. Kerr, W. E. Osment and R. H. Bratton; Mesopotamia, report sent in but no delegates; Elbethel, T. M. Littlejohn, E. (i. McCullough and Rufus Phillips; Salem, W. C. Black- well, J. P. Williams, Misses Main!) and Mattie Estes; Wilson’s Chapel, Ralph Lemaster, Lowry Webber and M. C. Dorman. The “wants and needs” of the Sun day school was then taken up and discussed by J. L. Strain, P. S. Webber and C, W. Whisonant. The reports of township superin tendents was then taken up. J.C. Thompson being the only superinten dent present, made his report, dis cussing the “wants and needs” of the Sunday schools. It was further discussed by C. W. Whisonant and P. S. Webber. The first query, “Ain I my broth er’s keeper?” was then taken up and discussed by J. L. Strain. M. 0. Dorman. 8. K. Estes and C. W. Whis onant. The second query; “Intemperance, the curse of our land; tho cause and cure for same.” Discussed by J. L. Strain, J. C. Thompson, C. W. Whis onant, W. E. Osment, S. F. Estes and F. McCluney. Tho choir then sang “Alas, and did my Savior bleed,” after which M. C. Dorman led in prayer. The convention then adjourned for dinner. After one hour’s intermission the convention reassembled.

Whisonant, 1\ S. Webber and J. L. Strain. Brother P. S. Webber then extend ed an invitation to meetat Abingdon. Brother Whisonant suggested that we go to some church that was off on the edge. Brother Webber moved then that we meet next tiipo at Draytonville, which carried. Tho choir then sang a piece and Brother S. F. Estes led in prayer. The con vention then adjourned to meet at Draytonville on the fourth Sunday in September. The British goverment is the owner of over 35.U00 camels.

Gkassy Pond, June 24.—We are having plenty of rain, so much that we haven’t worked any for several days and “General Green” is getting to be brave indeed. We are grumb ling all the time; if it don’t rain enough to suit us we grumble, and if it rains too much to suit us we grumble. If the grass grows we grumble, and if it don’t grow nothing else will grow, and we grumble also; and so it is a continual growl and grumble among tho people, instead of taking everything fair and easy and letting the world rock on as It will. We ought to watcli ourselves and be careful whet we say or do, for the very best we can do is had enough. After we do our best we are as filthy rags in the sight of the Lord. We are in the world to make the world better and to lift it up to a higher state, and to do this we must be more faithful. One of the most terrible evils that can befall a man is to lose faith in God, the Bible, religion and humanity. Pie is then indeed a wanderer in a strange land! the future must be black be fore him, and when ho comes to stand on the great shore of the eter nal sea, its tossing waves bring him no prophecy of another land. Our greatest men who are dead and gone, hut whose memory still survives, men who fought in battle, in the pulpit and with the pen like heroes for a free country, for a civilized nation, were faithful to their duty to oi e another and to their God With- j out faith home would etfce to he i home, family ties would prove to be j bands of straw ; communities could not be held together; the vast fabric of society would dissolve, and smil ing counties would once more bo the abode of savages. Now let me say to us boys who uie starting out in life, if we evei want to make men of ourselves we must start right. If we start right we will go right, and are more than apt to never change our course. We have good chances to educate ourselves, though some of us are poor, but there never has been a man so poor yet that he could not get an educa tion if he desired it, and would try for it. And while we are educating ourselves we must be making our characters, for character is the main thing. He who has character, though he has nothing else, lias the means of being eminent and useful, not only to his immediate friends, but to society, to the church of God, and to tho world. Just as a man prizes IBs character, so is he. We might have all the education in the world, but without character it is useless. Character is different from reputation, for it is what a man is while reputation is what ho is, thought to be. It is the grand est tiling man can live for. It ought to be tho first thing for youth to re member, and tho iu.it tiling for age to forget, We would like to hear from “Provi dence” again. Rooster. A Fourth of July Window. Lay un American flag on the lloor of your window, sufficiently large to cover the lloor. On this flag make such a display of goods as your own stock will suggest—using principally watches, silverware, and other of the heavier items,’ for the light articles of jewelry will be provided for further The floor of the window is the least part, in this case, in the decorative scheme. The sides of the window should ho draped with flags, with potted plants (palms arc best) standing against this background of color. The background of the window should be a sheet of white stuff— cheesecloth will answer—stretched evenly to cover the whole space. It should be split in part, to give access to the goods in the window. In the center of this sheet fasten a large round medallion of blue stuff, say three feet in diameter. Un it place another medallion of white stuff of the same material, two and one half feet in diameter; and on this a third medallion of red, two feet in diame ter. On this last, sew fire-crackers, spell ing the words, “July Fourth.” Get a bolt each of red, white and bine ribbon not less than an inch wide. Stretch these diagonally across the int ide-front of tho window, against the glass, drawing them taut, and tacking them securely at each of the ends. They should bt* placed about eight inches apart, and follow in regular order—red, while, blue, red, white, blue, etc.—until the whole w indow Is covered w ith tlu so strips of ribbon running from the lower left-hand to the upper right-hand. Then n |*eut the process in tho same way from lower right hand to upper left-hand. When you have finished,the glass will be covered with diamond shaped interstices of eight inches each way, between the criss-crossed strips of ribbon; and tho observer will lock through these interstices at tho display within the window. Fasten each point of contact of Hie crossed ribbon with some light sort of jewelry—of course brooch-pins and stick-pins will bo preferred, but even rings can be used, attaching them to tho points of intersections with tiny safety pins. Tho idea is to make even this lozeaged inside-curtain, which is primarily decoratiyo, serve uluo as a vehicle of goods-displuy. As Hie ribbon is securely fastened both above, below and at the sides, it will hold all this light jewelry without “sagging.” This window will secure very gen eral attention, and the cost of it will bo comparatively little. Mr. W. H. Whedon, Cashier of the First National Bank of Winterset, Iowa, in a recent letter gives some experience with a carpenter in his employ, that will be of value to other mechanics, He says.: “I had a carpenter working for me who was qblii'ed to stop wofk for several days on acoount of being troubled with diarrhoea. I mentioned to him that I hud been similutly troubled and that Cbumbcrlaiu’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy hud cured me. Hu bought a bottle of it from the druggist hero and informed me that one dose cured him, and he is again at his work.” For sale by Cherokee Drug Oo. SHORT LOCAL ITEMS.

Brown was elected warden from the third ward to fill the unexpired term of R. A. Jones, who recently resigned. Tom Is quite young to he a parent, hut his eminent qualities of mind and heart will enable him to perform the duties of “city father” in a most acceptable manner. The rain still continues, and it has become a matter of note how quickly and easily the clouds can gather and pour out their contents. Crops throughout the country’ are consid erably damaged, and unless the weather soon makes a change for the better they will fall far short of Hie fanners’ expectations at the begin ning of the season. Last Tuesday in a ride to Gaffney about half of the corn and cotton seemed pretty free or grass and weeds. The other half was very “woolly.” Now and then a lot which hud not been thinned was seen. The reports from the whole county show that it will require hard work, under best conditions, to get the crops clean by the 1st of July.—Carolina Spartan. The Southern’s side track out to the Limestone Mills is nearing com pletion. The road bed is graded al most to its terminus; the crossties are being placed on the end next to the main track of the Southern, and very soon the rails will be laid and the road ready for business. The mills will then be in direct touch with two railway lines anu will have excellent facilities for handling their goods and making prompt shipments.

Brake of Petrolea, Ontario,Can ada, writes: “Four years ago I had a severe attack of Bright's Disease, which brought mo bo low tho doctor said noth- Ilon. J. Hrake. log more could be d<*:io for me. When one of your lectures oa the above disease was read to mo I began to take Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin, and found it acted just as represented. In three months I was a well man, and have continued so ever since.” Mr. J. N. Howard of Marble, Ark., says: “It ha- been nearly two months since I wro- you giving a description of my case. I began taking Pe-ru-na and when I got your letter I followed the directions. My doctor had no hope of my getting well. My bowels were so bloated that I could not reatday or night if I ate anything at all. 1 thought my case was hopeless. But words cannot express my praise for your medicines. My friends were won derfully surprised when they saw me improving. But I have not suffered a day since I began taking your medicines; I eat anything I wish and have a good appetite. I was suffering from dropsy so bad that I could not get my clothes on and my feet were all swelled up.” Mrs. Mary A. Shear, Jennings, La., says: “I am recommending your medi- eiaes to every one I hear complain. My disease was Bright's disease of the kid neys. I am quite well now.” The kidneys are subject to catarrh the same as any oilier organ. Tho catarrh may be slight, giving rise to little or no disturbance, or severe, producing a genuine ease of Bright’s disease of the kidneys. The symptoms of catarrh of the kidneys are weak back, dull pains in hack and hips, sometimes high- colored and sometimes clear urination. Catarrh of the kidneys quickly leads to chronic Bright’s disease. Pe-ru-na should ho taken at the appearance of the first symptom. If taken in tho early stages of the disease Pe-ru-na is sure to cure every cas.-. Pe-ru-na cures catarrh of the kidneys simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. No other systemic catarrh remedy lias as yet been devised. Insist upon having Pe-ru-na. There are no medicines that can be substituted. There is no other remedy that can be relied on to cure ca tarrh of the kidneys. Pe-ru-na cures ea- | tarrh of any organ of ihe human body. Send for free catarrh book. Address The !
