A great man Is after all. nothing but. a bundle of improved opportuni ties. We are glad to know that the young peopL of Rehoboth did "Uncle Jesse” Mabry the honor to place a present on the Christmas tree at Ke hoboth for him. We haven’t heard what the present was. but for them to so kindly remember the old gentle man who Is now well advanced in his nineties, was a eommendahle act on their part, and we feel assured that "Uncle Jesse” appreciated B, too. Mr. Mabry is one of the oldest white citizens of Cherokee county, and withal one who has been true to his friends all ids lifetime. He has been, the says himself) “a rough man,” but he tri-d to treat his feliowmen right He lias lived through at least Hire- generations, ami can teil more about the people “of tiie long age” than any man we know of. He lias never been a lawbreaker; but been in a great man, fietieuffs— never on his own account, but in try ing to protect the weak against the strong. He never set himself up as “a bul ly ' but lie had the strength, manhood and courage to give him prestige witii that class of people who never took occasion to court a difficulty with him.

Clifton, Jan. 4.—Christmas holi days passed with very little excite ment or merriment. The occasion was observed with more quietude than is often shown to Sunday in such places as this. Visiting and fes tivity were the principal features and as a general rule .good dinners were abundant. One remarkable fact in connection with the occasion was, there was very little drunken ness and disorder. And now, as it has become a thing of the past, all persons have resumed their occupa tions (all who had any) and have gone to work “like they mean it.” Mr. Ed. Hughes and MBss Ada Cudd were happily united In that bond which no man may sever, on Wednesday afternoon, the 2nd. inst. Rev. T. H. Harrison officiating. iA little one year older, visitor from the country, on Sunday last, cot so mad over some affront that he "caught his breath,” and held it so long a time that he found quite a difficulty in regaining it gain when he got ready to breathe. It was once thought thfet he was beyond recovery, but finally he rallied. At last accounts ho hadn’t tried that plan of retaliation again. On Monday night last, the 31st ult, a number of young ladies got the key of the Baptist church, ami went at midnight to ’’ring out the old and ring in the new,” and they rang such a long and deafening toll that it caused a considerable yarm to some unaware of their intention and some went to the church to learn what was on fire. The citizens of Clifton and of the vicinity have petitioned the legisla ture (or will at. its next meeting) to pass a “marriage license law,” for this State. This, we think, is taking a step in the right direction, provid ed it is strictly enforced. People are beginning to see that marriage is be coming a children’s playng. and the sooner some measure is talsen to pre vent such shameful intrusion upon that holy and honorable institution; the more good may lie expected to lie derived from it. Mr. W. J Goforth is lying very sick at tills time, but with what dis ease lie is afllieted we are unable to -tate. But for him we wisli a speedy recover. Rev. T H. Harrison got rather a heavy "pounding” from the generous hands of some of ids church mem bers and friends during the holidays. From some cause unknown, but to ibe mail department we allege the fault. The Ledger lias failed to reach us since the issue of December 21st., ult. With the new year the Baptist con gregation lias resolved to arouse to :t greater zeal and earnestness and to that end they have organized a weekly prayer meeting. S. What is Money? (New York Times.) To the query. “What is money, any way?” the following answers are made: Money is the loudest sound in the voice of life. The most effective substitute for itrains. A provider for everything but hap- piins; a passport to everywhere lint heaven. Something that always gets the glad hand. MVmey is the most difficult road to cultivate. The best, talking nutchiue. That which women look for while men sleep. A curse to some that have it and a curse to all that haven’t. What the rich don’t need and the poor don’t get. The breath of business. The antidote for iKiverty. That which speaks a language we can all understand, but in which few are able to converse. new schedules. Changes Made in all Trains Went In to Effect Sunday.

A number of railway men were once discussing the question of aeci d«nt~. “The roads in Scotland,” said one official, “used to have a bad name, indeed, in respect to accidents. No one thought of embarking on a rail way journey unless he had provided himself with an accident policy of in surance. “The famous Dr. Norman Macleod was once about to set off on a long journey through the Scotch country. Just as the train was pulling out the clergyman's servant put his head through the window and asked: “ 'Ha’e ye ta’en an insurance tick et. sir?’ " ‘I have,” replied the doctor. “ ‘Then,’ continued the servant, write ye’re name on it and gi’e it to me.

County Treasurer W. H. Gooding says the tax collections up to this time are far in excess of the col lections at this time last year. This is certainly an evidence that our county is in a prosperous condition.

Kaocked OC Jap Frofmaor’a 811k Hat «nd Nearly Embroiled Natloaa. The boy who threw a tomato can and thereby created an International incident has been found, says a San Francisco special dispatch to the New York Times. He is Sidney Marks of San Francisco, formerly a special de livery postal messenger. It was Sid ney who threw the tin can which knocked the silk hat from the head of Professor Omori. That incident came to the knowledge of President Roose velt and, It is understood in San Fran- cisco, was the circumstance which de cided him to let the Japanese para graphs la his message stand against protests by many of his advisers. Professor Omori, who is one of the most distinguished of living seismolo gists, was studying tbe results of the earthquake near the San Franelseo postofflee when the tomato can. aim ed with perfect accuracy, knocked bis hat off. It was known that the can was thrown by one of a number of boys in the employ of the postofflee who had stopped the professor. The postal superintendent called the boys together and ordered them to tell who was the culprit. Each professed ab solute Ignorance of the affair. Tbe superintendent then adopted more sub tle means of getting at the truth. He told the boys to write the name of the offender on slips of paper, which were deposited in a hat. With complete unanimity the boys named Marks. He saw what was coming and wrote hi* own name on the slip which had been handed to him. Thereupon he was bounced. Sidney’s own account of the incident ! Is interesting, not only as history of I the Japanese-American trouble, but ! also because It furnishes material for philologists who are interested in the 1 comparative slang of the Atlantic and ! tin* Pacific coasts. By way of ex planatory preface it should be set forth that "Skippie” is an epithet applied to a Japanese in San Francisco. | Sidney says: ! “It was this way. Th^ro was a bunch | of us out behind the postofflee, when one of the gang yells: •]•!).• thi fldppi* Ufiucf the dicer! Let’s souk 'iin!' We let loose for fair, me to be tho lucky boy.
