He had only 177 people to go to hear him lecture in one of the towns of that State re cently. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The “main guy” of the establish ment leaves today for Georgetown to attend the annual meeting of the South Carolina Press Association. During his absence the pugilistic edi tor will be iu charge and those hav ing differences to settle with the pa per will please call while be is away. They are assured of a warm and hearty welcome. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ “A Veteran,” in another column, offers a good suggestion as regards the selection of Capt. H. P. Griffith, of this city, to succeed Gen. Carwile. The Ledger knows of no one in South Carolina who would bear the honor more fittingly. A man of noble in stinct, heroic courage and knightly chivalry, be would fill the position with honor to himself and bis heroic comrades. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ We are in receipt of a communica tion from Cow pens which bears no signatnre. People who write com munications to the newspapers should remember that no well regulated es tablishment will publish a communi cation unless it is accompanied by the name of the writer. The news paper does not require the name for publication but for identification, so when you write for the press sign your name, else your letter goes to the waste basket. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The tornado that visited Ravenna, Jonesville and Union last Sabbath was uncomfortably close to Gaffney. We escaped it by a hair’s breadth as it were. Much anxiety was felt here . for the safety of relatives and friends in the stricken district and all day long yesterday this office was visited by people inquiring for the latest par ticulars as to the number and names of those who met death or were in jured. Our sympathies go out to the grief-stricken ones and grateful hearts offer thanks that this com munity escaped. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ This week ends tbeCharleston Expo sition and the show was a pronounced success in every way except finan cially. There can be but little doubt but that the promoters are woefully “in the bole” from a monetary stand point, but they have succeeded in ad vertising Charleston, South Carolina, and the South at large, and, being public-spirited men, there is some consolation in the fact that, looking at the matter from a broad view, they have benefitted the country even if they have lost money. The Union service on Sunday night at the Presbyterian church was con ducted by Rev A. C. Cree. Mr. Cree, while expressing an abiding faith in his own convictions, extends to every other person the right to connect himself with any evangelical organi zation whose doctrine meets his views. His sermon was a splendid effort, and. in view of th* extreme narrow-mindedness of some people, it is really refreshing to listen to such a discourse, and we hope that when Brother Cree preaches another such sermon that he will give due no tice so that the public in general may do themselves the pleasure of being present. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Cherokee county could never ex pend $100,000 to better advantage than to build good roads, svsn if it Colonel (Irlfflth Nominated.

(colored) of this city, which took place last Thursday aod Friday nights were of unusual interest. The large audien ces who attended the exercises both nights were highly pleased with what they heard aod saw. Among the distinguished visitors who spoke words of cheer andeocour- agemeot to the audience, and com mended the work of Rev. R C. Camp- belle and his efficient corps of teach ers were: Prof. R. O Sams, super intendent of Gaffoey graded school; Mayor J. Q Little and Dr. J. N. Nesbit and Rev. Amos Clary, of the city, and Miss Abbie Faot, of Union Revs. D. S. Collier and £. L. Beaty were also present aod pronounced the exercises a credit to their race. Gaffney Still Advancing. Postmaster Folger informs ns that after the first of July Gaffney will be an international money order office. This will be quite a convenience for the people of this section who may have occasion to send remittances to any of the foreign countries. What next for Gaffney? A Remarkable Sentence. The Latin sentence, “Bator arepo ten et opera rotas," which is. it must be admitted, pretty bad Latin, is a curios ity nevertheless. It can be freely trans lated as “I cease from my work; the sower will wear away bis wheels.’’ Its hue oddities are these: it spells the same backward as for ward. The first letter of each word spells the first word. Tbe same may be said of the second, third, fourth and fifth letters. The last letters, read backward, spell the first word, the next to the last the second word, and so on throughout. There are just as many letters in each word as there are words in the sentence. Books With Lcnvcc I'ncnt. A book the leaves of which are un cut possesses no value of an intrinsic character beyond one that is cut. but really less. For that matter, if it is to remain uncut it is as valueless as it is useless. There are book col lectors. however, who place a premium upon books with uncut leaves and so commend th«#io in their advertisements and circulars. There are persons who loud certain shelves in their libraries with uncut books. Of course they are not for use and are not used and are valueless except for keeping. The Eternal Feminine.

W ho would not be willing to pay the tsx for the comfort of riding on a good road, to say noth ing of the saving in time, wear of ve hicles and harness and the killing of stock? Think over this matter of good roads. It is the most beneficial thing to be had and its importance lays politics and the politicians in the shade. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The Democrats have a fine chance to get in the saddle in 1904. With the beef trust daily reminding the people of the iniquitous trust legisla tion, the unjust tariff taxation, and the unholy warfare being carried on in the Philippines, all of which can be laid at the door of a Republican congress, all the Democrats have got to do is to sit steady in tbe boat and paddle your their canoe. This they can do by dropping dead issues and ceasing to quarrel among themselves. But so long as they keep harping on Billy Bryan, Benny Tillman, Arkan sas and free silver, just so loug will tbe Rough Rider Republican ride rough-shod over the people. It’s time we were learning something. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. You weep on a gravestone, It is tbs threshold of eternity that you srs web ting with your tears.—De Malstre.

Storm Struck the Town With Great Force, Razing Buildings and Uproot ing Trees—Incalculable Damage Has Been Done to Crops In Its Patht. Union. S. C., May 26.—This place was visited yesterday afternoon at 4 o’clock by a terrible tornado. The storm came from the north and it seems there was also one from the southwest, meeting in this vicinity. It played havoc, four deaths and considerable loss of property being the result. The storm from the north was pre ceded by a heavy rain and what ap peared to be a dark mass about 100 yards wide. It traveled with great speed and people barely had time to get indoors before the storm struck the town. The wing of the storm passed along Main street and blew several store doors open, doing more or less dcpnage. Knitting Mill hill, south of the town, caught the full force of the tornado, which blew down the schoolhouse and two residences, converting them lit erally into kindling wood. The occu pants flew from one of the houses be- 'fore it went to pieces and took refuge in another near by, but this house was also crushed to splinters. In this house Misses Sallie Hart and Annie Lawson were instantly killed. Mrs. Maxey Sims died in an hour, and her little daughter, Vera, died about 9 o’clock. Five other persons were injured, one of them probably fatally. Dozens of large trees were blown down and many orchards utterly ruin ed. Reports are coming in that more than a dozen farmhouses between Union and Jonesville and Santus were destroyed; also a number of houses at Santuc, including a large ginnery and machine shop. It Is impossible to estimate the damage at present, but it will reach manv thousand dollar*. Ravenna, May 26—Special to The Ledger. There was a fearful storm near Pacoiet Mills yesterday evening about three o’clock. I learn this morning there were eight bouse* blown down on Mr. Winfield Brown’s place, includ.ng hi* large barn. The top of one of bis chimney* was also blown off. Tbe bouse in which one of bia son* lived wan completely wrecked and young Brown's wife bad an arm and her col lar bone broken. Mrs. James Brown was also painfully hurt. Tbe shade and fruit trees about tbe premises were almost totally destroyed. A colored woman is reported to have been blown a hundred yards and was found but slightly injured. Others report there were four negroes killed near Pacoiet station. I learn Mr. Brown says be is damaged at least $500. * roc. Union, May 25.—This place was visited this afternoon at 4 o’clock by a terrible tornado. Tbe storm came from tbe north and it seems there was also one from the eouthwest, meeting in this vicinity. It played havoc, four deaths and cous derable loss of property being the result. Tbe atorm from tbe north was pre ceded by a heavy rain and wbat appeared to be a dark mass about 100 yards wide. It traveled with great speed and people barely bad time to get in doors before tbe storm was upon tbe town. A wing of the storm passed along Main street and blew several store doors open, doing more or less damage. Knitting Mill Hill, south of town, caught tbe full force of tbe tornado, which blew down tbe school house and two residences, converting them literally into kindling wood. Tbe occupants flew from one of tbe houses before it went to pieces and took re fuge in another near by, but this bouse was also crushed to apiinters Id this bouse Misses Sallie Hart and Annie Lawson ware instantly killed, Mrs. Maxey Sims died in an hour and little daughter, Vera, died about 9 o’clock. Maxey Sims escaped with a broken finger. Lee Sims received two bad cuts on tbe band from fall ing timbers and was Internally in jured. Mr. Mabry suatained a frac tured shoulder, bis leg was badly burned by a stove falling on him and he was internally injured. His case may prove fatal. Mrs. Lee Sims received a bad, but oot fatal, cut oo tbe bead. Mrs Mabry and her two other children escaped with slight injurieb. It took some time to get the victims from tbe debries. Every physician in town was soon upon the scene, also President Nichols and Manager Gault, of tbe Excelsior Knitting Mills, and willing hands assisted in relieving tbe eufferers as much as possible. Tbe news spread rapidly and tbe bill wae soon full of people from town, anxious to render every assistance possible. Everything that the families had was destroyed. Jonesville reports in a telegram to Miss Lawson, tbe lady wbo was <Uled, that tbe storm was fearful at that point and that one of her family had been killed there. Miss Lawson was dead when the telegram arrived. The property damage will aggregate about $20 000, divided among a lumber of stores and residences and :otton mills.

Life eonsisis in a series of changes of tissue, and the human economy is sim ply. so far as its material part is con cerned, a machine and primarily de pends on food as the most important factor in keeping it in working order. lVh«‘ii it is said that we commence to die as soon as we are horn, it of course means that certain parts of the body immediately begin to perish; their ex istence is ephemeral; they come and go. are replenished and decay. They are the dying parts of that system of life which tyay last a little while, but which must eventually yield to the In exorable law of nature. Tbe nails. the\ hair. etc., are observable as an instance’ of this decay. Tbe same rule applies to every otiier organ and tissue of the body, though it is not palpable to the naked eye. The skin is always peeling. The food that is taken in the one hour nourishes the system and ejects that which was taken the hour before. , How Bird* Migrate. Many of the smaller and weaker birds, like the fly catchers, vireos. wrens, kinglets and bluebirds, in order to avoid their enemies, the hawks, make their long flights by nigbL stop ping for rest and food in the daytime. The larger and bolder ones, like the hawks and crows, and those of ex tremely rapid flight, like the swallows and humming birds, migrate fearlessly by day. and there are some, like the Canada geese, which travel just when they choose, by day or night. Migrat ing birds usually fly at a height of from one to three miles, and this ena bles them to see the rivers, the moun tain ranges and the coast line. By these they direct their course, the old birds remembering the way they came before mid the young ones following.— Woman's Home Companion. Peculiar Table Caatom*. In a Look entitled "Domestic Man ners of the Middle Ages” we are told that In those days dinner tables were covered by a “nappe.” or tablecloth. Upon it were placed a large saltcellar, bread and cups for wine, but no knives or plates. The reason for the absence of the knives arose from the common practice in vogue of people carrying their own knives iu a sheath attached to their girdle. In an early work, written by Lyd gate—“Rules For Behavior at Table”— the guests are told to bring no knives unsecured to tbe table, which can only mean that each one was to keep bis own knife—that Is, tbe one be carried witb bim—clean. Notlfvlaic tbe God. One of the odd things the visitor to Burma will notice is the large nuinbet of hells about the pagodas. These bells are usually hung on sacred posts a few feet above the ground. They are sweet toned, as all Burmese bells are. hut they are not furnished witb tongues. The worshiper who comes to pray before the pagoda strikes one of these bells witb a wood en mallet This is to attract the atten tion of the god. Surprising Statement*.
