A terrific wind and hail storm struck this section on Monday afternoon. A number of build ings were completely wrecked, trees were blowu down, corn and cotton in mauy places utterly destroyed by the fierce, ragiug wii.d and pelting hail. 'J he storm rageu lor only a brief time, but played havoc with everything it came in con tact with for miles around Green vilie. Nearly ail the telephone wires ol the upper portion of the State were blown down, and br a remit tt was impossible on y.es terrlay to serum communication bv telephope with any of the tow no ii, this section. I ho people in every case, howfor, win- out of their h uses wl-cn the storm struck and no on- was injured. A number of cattle were killed and other property was seriously damaged Tho storm was very slight in the city of Greenville. Beyond the blowing down of a few trees and the breaking of a few window panes, there was no further damage done. -The wind, how ever, hurled the dust through every street with terriffic rapidity, chasing around the corners like sn enraged lion, murmuring, growling, screeching and blowing. K. Y. Risemond, who lives on the Sandy Flat road near Moun faitiCreek church, had recently completed a handsome residence one of the best in the community. As results of the wind, it is now a complete wreck. Iu the same neighborhood, numerous trees were uprooted by tbe wind and the corn fodder was split i t*. el - ?? I- * * b - I- 1 i ii i ? n i i i ii 11 y | (it? Jirtll, On Km McBee's farm, about three miles f rom Ureonville, on the Laurens road, a large barn was hurled to the ground, darn aging a thresher, wagon and buggy. A mule which was in the barn at the time was badly injured. The raging wind also made a rake at the house on the place occupied by Mr. John Hammond. The stove chimney w*k blown down, several planks on the piazza flour were torn loo?e, and for a time it was thought that the entire house would be destroyed. There was great excitement produced on the place, but no one was in jurcd. F. Marion Evans, who lives near &lr MnRaa'a farm h-<l cow killed by the lightning and a fifteen acre field of cotton, that gave promise of a ten bale yield, was totally battered to ruin. He says that his corn since the wind on Monday afternoon looks as if a heavy log had been rolled over it. Several trees were uprooted on William Lock's place near Taylor's station, one of them falling on Mr. Lock's barn and smashing it in pieces. There were several head of cattle in the barn, bnt they managed in some way to escape any serious injury. The corn and cotton in the neighborhood of McOarters was badly damaged by both the rain and hail. At Piedmont no further dam age was done than the blowing down of a few telephone poles.

"My neighbor across the street, was sick for over a week, had two or three bottles of medicine from the doctor. He used them for three or four days without relief, then called in another doctor who treated him for some days and gave him no relief, so discharged him. I went over to see him the next morning. lie said his bowels were in a terrible tlx, that they had been running off so long that it was almost bloody (lux. i asked him if he had tried Chamberlain's Colic, Choleta and Diarrhoea Remedy and he said, 'No.' I went home and brought him iny bottle and gave him one dose; told him to take another dose in 15 or 20 minutes if he did not tind relief, but he took no more and was entirely cured."

New York, Senator I lamia, chairman of the Republican national committee, opened the campaign of the Republicans ol Now Jersey at Asbury I'ark, N. J., tonight. An immense crowd,! more than could be accommodated, gathered in and about the auditorium by the seashore. The Senator whs roundly cheered when he entered the building, lie was introduced to the audi enea bv Frank Annlcliv r?r<>?i. - ? ri " dent ol the Asbury Park city council. Senator llanna, after thanking the audience lor tlie heaity reception accorded him, said: "We are on the eve of a po litical campaign second to none in importance, one on the issues of which depends the prosperity of the country. But I leave the discussion of that matter to ah ler hands, to those who will soon address you. 411 want to sound a note of If you h?r?

"You cannot shirk this duty because every man who has any properly must leel that it is his light as much as anyone's and i hat. he must fight for his own interests. "A note of warning has como from the national Republican headquarters. 1 am responsible for that. (Cheers ) 1 know the contest, which is beioro us and I can ?cll you that you cannot afford to take anything for granted or to miss a trick. (Laughter and applause). "We are confronted with a dangerous foe and Bryanism is in the balance and il it is killed now it is kil'cd forever. "I will now (jnote from one of Gov. Roosevelt's speeches, re cenlly delivered by him, in which he says: i kEvery man who loves his country is called upon now to stand shoulder to shoulder to maintain the prosperity which has given us so much.' s "That is materially true. "There have been two objectlessons presented to the people of this country. In 1892. under a Republican administration, we lound ourselves in prosperity, | the spindles were all busy in the I lactones and industries were busy Ion every hand. Then came a change. The people said they ; wanted a change and they got it. "I will not picture to you how labor was then out of employment and how, month alter monto, ii grew worse. You know 'all about that as well as I can I tell you. "Then people wanted an|other change and they got it. And what a change it was, and how the spindles began to spin again in the factories, resulting jin happy homes and firesides all I over the land. * "Now. do von want, ntinrlmr change and go back to the conditions that prevailed in 1807? (Cries of ?No, no.') "Then yon must do your dufj'. I want New Jersey to set an example to the wholo country? one that shall be seen and recognized all over the land. (Applause.) ()ver confidence is the worst : feature of this campaign. No one can be blamed for confidence in what the outcome will be after three years of President McKinlev, but remember that we have an enemy which may be called the 'cuckoo' party, which is composed of men of every shade of political opinion, every crank and every Nihilist. They are ali against, us. We must be active and it is to impress thin upon you that I am here tonight, ami to tell you your plain duty. In conclusion let me say you must not neglect it."
