ONE DOLLA.H A YKAH.
WHAT ONK GIRL DID.
Tho greatest ease of fumiuino bravery
and dovotlon that ever uamo under my
uotloo, Haid my friend, who hud boon u
prominent detect Ivo in hi-, day, was
that of Margaret Whitney, tho daugh
ter of tho doorkeeper of Messrs. Batig?
?haw Brothors, bankers.
On tho ovontful night in question
Margareta fathor In id been Hcnt out of
town on buslnoBs for the firm, and she
was tho hoIo occupant of the rooms in
which they dwelt, directly over the
bank.
Sho had fallen asleep on a lounge,
and was aroused by tho sound of Hteal
thy approaching feetover the carpeted
stairway, just oubddo her door.
Sho arose hurriedly und with a sud
den impulse aho threw the door wide
open.
Sho hud no sooner done so thun two
masked men suddenly sprang upon her.
The light was dashed from her hand,
their strong arms held her in a vlse
like grip, and boforo sho could utter u
cry u voice whispered :
"Mako tho slightest noise and you
aro a dead woman ! Do as you are told
and no harm shall befull you."
Margaret Whitney was as bravo us
steel. Sho folt tho cold muz/.'o of u
pistol pressed uguinst bur forehead,
but she accepted the situation at once,
and retaining porfeet self-control, she
replied In a low voice :
" Only roloaso mo, und toll mo what
It is I must do."
They roloasod her, uftcr a moment's
eonsult.ition, und relighted tho candle,
by which sho could soo thut their faces
wore covorod with bluek crupe veils in
which holos wore cut for the eyes and
mouth ; und they seemed shod with
some felt-like muteriul that deadened
tho sound of their footsteps consider
ably.
Ono of the men quickly und silently
searched the room, while the other
stood guurd over her. Tho former
presently returned, dangling a bunch
of keys.
" Whoso keys are these and what do
thoy open V" was asked the girl, in a
low, commanding voice.
"Thoy aro my father's keys," said
Margaret, "und they open the different
rooms und places downstuirs."
" Do thoy open the cellar und the
strong box In which tho money is
kept ?"
"No; ono puss-key is in tho posses
sion of the eldor Mr. BangShaw, tho
other Is In the possession of Mr. Hoseu,
tho cashier. No ono can obtain ad
mission to tho collar during their
absence."
"Come downstairs with us," said
tho man holding immediate guard
over her.
As they went down the lower flight
Murgnret was surprised to see another
figure?that of a woman, who was
clothed in u durk mantle from head to
foot?who further lighted their pro
{[ress down with tho slender ray of a
antern in her hand.
" Is it not possible," said Margaret's
chief captor, when they bud reached
tho foot of tho stairs, " thut ono or
other of the puss-keys may bo looked
in the desk of their private ofliee ?"
"It is possible, but not likely," was
tho culm reply.
At tho lender's command Margaret
pointed out tho key thut opened the
door of tho private Office, and the desk
ut whieh tho Bangshaw Brothers gen
erally Bat. one facing the other.
A small jet of gas, commonly used
for melting sealing-wax. was then
lighted ; n bag, containing a number of
housebroaking implements, swathed in
thick folds of tlunnel, was next produc
ed ; und tho desk drawers were speedi
ly forced open und searched. Hut no
key was to no found.
Ho consulted in whispers with his
companions a moment, and then re
quested Margaret to point out tho key
thut opened tho top collar door, Buying
thut thoy would have to burst open the
lowor one. sho indicated the proper
key. when he resumed :
I must compliment you on your
sensible conduct in the affair. Now,
however, you must excuse me if I am
compelled to make you a prisoner for
awhile. Dour friend, the cord."
The lust words were addressed to t he
masked woman, who up to this time
had been a more looker-on, but who
now started into sudden activity.
She pluced Margaret with her back
to a large iron pillar, which supported
the coiling, and then, producing from
some hidden pockot a coil of long, thin
cord, sho proceeded to tic Margaret
firmly to the pillar.
Her arms woro left ut liberty till tho
last, when they were bound togothor
at tho wrists with a bund of some,
strong woven stuff, whieh held them
us securely us if they hud been riveted
there.
"You see, I would not cause you un
necessary pain." said tho courteous
burglar, when all was mudo fust: "und
to have fastened your arms down to
{rour sides for u couple of hour-' would
invo been tho refinement of cruelty.
"But one point still remains. You
must give mo your word of honor thut
you will not cry out, nor in any way
eull for assistance while hero ; other
wise I shull bo under the unpleasant
necessity of hnving you gagged.
" I give you my word," assented the
doorkeeper's daughter, utter a moment
of silent thought, " not to cry out while
I remain hero."
Sho began to breathe more freely when
they left her to herself, us they now ut
once did, with no other company than
the tiny faintly-burning gus jet alroady
mentioned, by whieh sho could just
make out tho familiar features of the
old-fnshioned, but richly-furnished pri
vate office of tho banker brothers.
A few desperate efforts to froo her
self only served to convinco her of their
futility. Then sho resigned herself to
her bonds *and begun to think.
Sho knew that before u ainglo sov
ereign In tho Bangshuw Brothers'
strong box could bo touched, tho bur
Iflurs would huvo to force open two
ron doors of Immens.) strength, und
knowing but little of the modern im
provements in tho science of house
breaking, she mudo no doubt thut those
doors would prove impregnnble to all
attorn pts.
Many dreary minutes passed and her
cramped attitude und the tightness of
tho cords that bound her gradually
caused her such intense path that site
could scarcely refrain from crying out.
Suddenly, in tho midst of her tor
ture, a thought Hashed into her brain
that loft no room for unvthing else but
surprise and delight. There right be
fore her eyes whs suddenly revealed to
her ut ono glanco a sure und speedy
mode of escape.
The pillar to which Margaret was
tied ? was within u short yard of the
desk that had been broken open : and
right upon tho odgo of this desk was
the upright gun pipe from which
sprung tho smull jet, still burning, of
which mention has already boon made.
By stretching out her urms Murgarot
could hold her wrists directly over tho
desk, and lot tho flume burn away
tho band by which thoy woro bound
togothor.
Sho know tho torrihlo scorching
that It Would inevitably cost hor, but
. sho did not hosituto un Instant.
Sho, ut onco thrust out her hands,
with a swift movement, und so hold
tliom extended, while the jot Of bluish
liumo played on ber wrists and the
bund that secured them.
She shut hor oyos, hold her breath,
1 >ekod her teeth, and her eyebrows
came together in a wreathing frown of
mtpreme anguish.
Over and round the delicate skin and
beating pulse, the scorching fire-snake
wound and wound, with it* searing
bite, its excruciating embrace, and
presently the encompassing band burst
Into flame. Even then she did not
falter, though it seemed that her
very bouI would shriek forth from Its
tenement.
In a few moments-moments that
seomed hours?the blazing ligature
gave way. Her hands wore free, but
blackened, blistered, almost cindered,
they fell hoi pi ess to her sides. Thou
sho gavo u groat sob, and almost faint
ed.
I bit the returning knowledge of her
peril, und of the groat work she had
sot out to do (hot* father's situation in
the bank might depend upon it), re
nerved her, and with a groat effort she
begun to pull horsolf together.
In spite of the pain In her wrist, she
liogan with nimble fingers to loosen
one of the knots in tho cord by which
she was fastened to the post. This
Offered no groat opposition to her
efforts ; and tho first knot loosened, tho
rest quickly followed.
Tho next thing to do was evidently
to make her escape from the bank
without ularming tho thieves in the
treasure collar, if that were possible,
und thou raise such an alarm as would
causo their arrest before they could
make off with their booty.
Taking off her shoos, she stole out of
tho office to the head of the cellar
stairs, up which a faint ray of light
was shining, and pooped down.
Before reaching this point she heard
voices?broken, faint and hollow?issu
ing from below, with now and then a
dull, solid thud, like tho muffled blow
of some heavy implement.
Now, as she looked down she saw
that the door at the foot of tho stairs
bad been forced open, and that the
burglars were working upon the groat
safe itself.
One of tho men was busy with a flan
uel-swathed crowbar, which he was
using as a lover to pry open one of the
safe doors ; tho second man was drilling
hole?, in the other door with a very
strange-looking implement, the like of
which Margaret bad never seen be
fore; while tho woman was lighting
these operations with a lamp, hold
aloft in one bund. These bad their
backs to the staircase.
This entire picture Margaret's eyes
took in at a glance. They took in one
thing more?the bunch of keys with
which they had opened the door at tho
head of the stairs.
This bunch of keys was lying on the
lower landing, close to the cellar door
that had boon forced open. Could she
but obtain possession of it, she saw not
only a way of escape for herself, but a
way by which the thieves might be
caught in their own trap.
The peril was tremendous the chance
apparently but one in a hundred, of
her being able to creep down so softly
as not even to causo them to turn a
glance in her direction (which, of
course, would seal her fate,) and then
creep back with the keys and closo tho
trap upon them by moans of the heavy
spring-lock door at the top.
Hut it was the only course open to
her, desperate as It was. and sho
adopted it with characteristic boldness
and fearlessness.
Slowly, inch by inch, and with no
more sound than a shadow, she stole
into the doorway, and then down tho
staircase, stop by stop, counting them
one by one by the palpitation of her
own heart as she proceeded.
She reached the bottom of the steps,
fifteen In all, without causing them to
turn a look.
The next difficulty was to pick up
the keys, which were threaded on a
steel ring, without detection,
Kven this difficulty was conquered at
last. She took the keys up from the
floor without so muoh as a rustle, and
bad proceeded three steps on he peril
ous upward journey, when there was a
sharp report of a pistol, and, as Mar
garet set foot on the topmost step, she
felt something strike her near tho
shoulder-blade.
Hut, she staggered forward into the
corridor, wheeled quickly around, and
Hung herself?head. arms, body?
against the oaken door, which, yield
ing to her .strength, turned on its well
oiled hinges and, with a little trium
phant click, shut up, as in a trap, throe
thieves below.
Without the key, this door, which
locked of itself when pushed to, could
neither be opened from one side or tho
other; with the key it could be opened
on either side.
Slur had hardly closed it securely bo
fore she heard the two men inside tear
ing and beating at it like madmen in
their desperate efforts to get out.
Still holding her bunch of keys, she
ran out of the offieo and down a pass
ago that led to the side entrance of tho
bank. She was trembling all over
now. and had hardly strength enough
remaining to unfasten the heavy outer
door.
At last she sped down the silent
street in search of assistance.
Fortunately, upon reaching tho lirst
corner she nearly tumbled Into tho
arms of a policeman who was coming
from the opposite direction.
What, sort of an incoherent story sho
told Iiiin she could never afterwards
quite remember : but it must have been
to the purpose. The policeman at once
summoned some comrades to his assist
ance, and a strong posse of officers
reached the bank and took tho burg
lars in custody.
It turned out that, the rascals were
none other than a certain so-called
Major Wool ford, his wife, and his
servant, who had some four months
previously become the tenants of an
empty house, that stood next door to
the bank. Of course they were sub
sequently tried, convicted and sen
tenced.
As for brave Margaret Whitney, sho
not only became the heroine of the
hour, but more substantial advantages
accrued to her and hers through her
heroism and devotion.
" I saw Margaret about two years
after that adventure," said my friend,
the detective, in concluding his narra
tive.
" Her husband was doing thrivingly
as a small shopkeeper, and she was a
happy wife and mother, though her
wrists still bore the scorching scars of
that terrible ordeal of lire, to which
she so unhesitatingly submitted her
self in the causo of honor and duty.
" The wound in her shoulder quick
ly healed, and I am sure were theie a
record kept of tho bravo self-sacrlliclng
deeds of young women, her name
would stand high upon tho list."

HOW THE HYMN ORIGINATED.?-It ls
well known that the hymn " Hold the
Fort" was inspired by the story of the
signals oxohanged hy (lens. Sherman
and Corsowhon tho latter was besieged
at Allatoona, (Ja., but few know how
the idea was brought to Mr. Moody's
mind. The Hosten Globe says that
onco, when (Jon. und Mrs. Corse lived
In Chicago, Mr. Moody called. While
there he took up a hook that told the
story of the famous conflict In which
Corse had been so badly wounded, and
seeing the message from (ion. Sher
man '?Hold the fort? for I am com
ing!" exclaimed enthusiastically:
" What a magnificent motto that
would bo for a marching song for the
army of Christ." And tho day after
the famous hymn was written, begin
ning with " Hold tho fort, for I am com
ing, .fosussignals still," a hymn that has
boon sung almost In every bumlot on
the continent, and whose strains across
tho ocean have" become familiar to tho
oars of men who never hoard of (Jon.

?Tho Moxlcans have tho right idea
about dueling. They uru framing a
law to make tho distance so short and
tho weapons so doadly that no ono will

HIS CONSTANCY WON.
BKAUTIFUIj romance op south
ALABAMA.
[Written for the Mobile Register, by Lela
It.icon Dickson, of Tu|>elo, Miss.)
Samuel Taylor, a descendant of a
Revolutionary family, early in the
forties, emigrated from Pendieton, S.
C, to South Alabama, and settled on
the Bigbee river, whore his rich and
fertile plantation fronted tho river for
ml Ich, and in the harvesting season
broad fields of corn and cotton white
forgathering covorcd tho river lovols,
and hundreds of slaves, both men and
women, wore employed alike in gather
ing the fleecy staple. On one hand as
far as the eye could roach these black
forms could Ihj soon thickly dotting tho
fields, and their merry voices break
ing through the air, as they laughed,
chatted and gave jest for jest, and the
melody of tho distant song, and cheer
ful whistle proclaimed the happy
Southern darkey. On the other hand
swelled grassy uplund pastures and
wooded hills where tho Indian had
chased not many years before the still
plentiful door.
On a gentle rise from tho river stood
tho stately Taylor mansion, a typical
old fashioned Southern house with Mar
ing wings, many rooms, a wide hall
running through, with broud stair
ways, on either side, wide verandas
extended around, and unique porticos,
supported by immense colonnades. To
the roar of the bouso were numerous
burns, sheds and out-buildings, and
olill beyond were the negro quarters.
There hundreds of small white-washed
cabins of uniform size fronted euch
othor for half a mile, and piccaninnies
of various sizes could bo soon sporting
and gamboling upon the green sward.
As the story opens, April .'10, 18?7,
the nuptials of the beautiful and ac
complished Mary Taylor were being
celebrated, the only child and heiress
of this vast inhoritago. The grand
old mansion was ablaze with splendor ;
carriages and horses lined the broad
avenues; grand dames with their
lovely debutantes, and chivalrous
Southern knights wore mingled in tiie
gay throng : and the lovely bride ! how
proud she looked in her far trailing
robes of moon-light silk, and diamonds
glittering on tho foam-white hand
that rested lightly on tho arm of the
happy groom. On they sped to the
voluptuous strains of tiio music, and
fair forms Hashed by, whirling like
brilliunt blossoms in the mad maelstrom
of melody, and " all wont merry
as a marriage bell," with all save
Phillip Saunders, the rejected suitor
of the happy bride. The consent of
her parents had been given, and their
troth had been plighted in early youth,
and he loved her with an ardor seldom
seen, but there came between them a
handsome, fascinating stranger who
bad won her affections from her child
hood's lover, and sho was now tho
happy bride of thou fortunate rival.
This was to Phillip Saunders a
bitter sorrow, but ho accepted his
defeat with scorn.ng grace and noble
nessof spirit. His was an undying love,
however, and bis heart was bowed and
crushed beneath the blow. There was
un unmistakable sadness underlying
his gay manner.
At early dawn the bride and groom,
with numerous friends and relatives,
and representatives from almost every
family in the surrounding country,
assembled on the river wharf, at War
saw, and boarded the steamer ESllssa
Battle, destined for Mobile to attend
the Carnival festivities. As the tender
farewells were said the old fortune
teller shook her head meaningly, and
said before many hours the whole
country would be in mourning, but her
words were unheeded by the merry
crowd, and those remaining, gathered
on the high bin IT to wave a last adieu,
and catch the last glimpse of the re
ceding boat, and thought they had
never seen the Eliza Battle look so
pretty as she sailed grandly down the
wide and turbulent stream.
Many Southern beauties and gallant
knights were gathered on board, and
never before were passengers more
light-hearted and gay as they joined
in the revelry of the night. Before
eaoh guest the brimming wine cup was
seen to shine, and as every cup was
raised on high, to his feet each gallant
Sprang with a joyous shout. " A toast!
A toast to the fair young bride." But
hushed was the loud and gladsome cry,
as t he lire bei I sent a eh ill to every heart.
" Piro ! Piro !" was echoed from every
Up. Cheeks grew pale, and eyes glis
tened wild in the glare of the light.
Fire raged above and below and the
smoke in thick wreaths mounted highl
and higher, and stern came the captain's
command for all to march to the bow
of the boat. " To the life boat," he
shouted, but what dismay and con
sternation when the lifeboat was found
missing.
As the lapping llamcs climbed closer
and closer, the stilling smoke and
scorching heat were no longer endur
able. An uproar of voices arose In the
air, and wild were the shrieks and
cries of women and children, for now
an irrevocable doom awaited them.
With a prayer to God to have mercy
upon their souls, and to be saved from
so horrible a fate, hopeless and despair
ing, the passengers with one accord
plunged Into tho dark, whirling
stream. Many sank to rise no more,
while others, more fortunate, succeed
ed in getting on broken spars and
floating cotton bales.
The young husband and wife, in a
close embrace, were seon to make the
fatal leap. The husband sank from
view, but as the beautiful face of the
bride appeared above the water, she
was grasped by the strong band of
Phillip Saunders, and, with a mighty
effort, he swam with his unconscious
burden to a clump of trees many yards
distant. "Thank Cod! rescued from
the burning boat." he cried, as he
climbed above the waters'edge and tied
himself und tho unfortunate bride
securely to the drooping boughs. Oh,
Cod ! what a horrible night it proved
to be. The. sky became overcast, and
in a short time it was freezing cold,
tMo air was thick with sleet and rain,
and u driving wind that pierced one
to the bone ; and in u few hours tho re
maining survivors wore in a benumbed,
unconscious stute, and over and anon
there could be hoard the dropping of
human beings Into tno water as they
froze and foil from the. trees. The suf
ferers experienced u night of horror
and human anguish too graphic for
description.
Tho rescuing party, after crossing
three miles of water ill skill's, und after
many hours bad passed slowly by, suc
ceeded in gathering many unconscious
and frozen bodies, and after placing
them around u log lire and giving
stimulants, a goodly number revived,
but. there were u groat number life
less.
Never before was a more, tragical
and heart-rending scene presented to
view. The stoutest, heart was melted
to tears and one of the most, pathetic
Objects was the beautiful bride in her
frozen bridal garments, tho dainty
white slippers, the glittering jewels
around the white throat ami on the
slender hand : the golden huir In a
frozen dishevelled mass falling in a halo
about the fair shoulders, and wholly
unconscious of the frozen arm that
clasped her in a loving embrace. By
a superhuman olTort Philip Saunders
bad retained consciousness, although
unable to move a limb or speak a word,
BO groat Was bis desire to shield the
object of bis love from so impending a
fate.
The wrocked passengers were car
ried to the residence of Mrs. Pelegron
whoro warm clothing and comfortable
bods were provided. Mrs. Pologron
and her daughter proved themselves
angels of mercy to the poor sulTorors.
Tho noxt steamer passing the fatal
wreck was going down tho river, and
those who wero able to travol took
passage to Mobile, while others waited
for tho returning boat to take them to
their respective homes with the re
mains of friends and relatives.
As the boat landed at Warsaw, In
describable was the frenzy and grief
of husbands for the loss of wives and
children, wives for husbands, mothers
for children and grand children, sisters
for dear sisters and brothers. Wails
und lamentations filled the air as corpse
after corpse was removed fron? tho
boat, and hysterical screams and sobs
as some dear one was restored alive to
loving hearts. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor
were among tho unxlous throng und
they oargely sought their missing
daughter, who but ushort while before
had left tho paternal roof under tho
brightest auspices that ever gladdened
a human' heart, radiant with bounty
and hupplness, tho world lying before
her u veritable paradise : but alas for
human hopes und plans ! Who euu
toll what a day may bring forth ! The
widowed bride lay lingering between
lifo und deuth und during intervals of
consciousness would pray for deuth.
und chide the preserver of her life for
not having let her perish with her
beloved husbutul. Tho fuitl fill lover,
with tho tenderness of u mother,
watched night and duy by her bed
side with an anxious longing for her
recovery, und after many long weeks
of suffering the disconsolate bride was
restored to her former home, where
tho tonderest love und affection wus
lavished upon her, und tho most
delieute and oherishing attentions wore
paid her by families of wealth and dis
tinction, und every thought for her
amusement was given to dissipate her
grief; but all in vain. Sho walked
ubout in u sad reverie apparently un
conscious of tho world around hor,
nursing her grief with an undying
fervor. Thus elapsed several years,
und the death of her parents left her
with hor slaves und vast wealth alone
at tho old mansion.
Philip Saundors, whose faithfulness
and devotion hud never wavorod,
again Offered her his heart and hand,
.only to be rejected. Sho told him her
thoughts were irrevocably engrossed
with the dead, and her heart could
never again bo awakened to love, and
sho hoped he would forget her very
existence and learn to love one that
wus in every way worthy of his love.
Yours passed und still ulone they
wandered on. Tho cry of war was heard
through tho bountiful South land, and
among the first to volunteer to bear
urms for his country wus Phillip
Saunders, who gladly fueed the battle's
strife, and was ever amid the thickest
of the fruy, gaining honor und distinc
tion until his name wus heralded from
every lip with praise of valor and
courage, und in the seige of Vieksburg
none fought more heroically than he.

friends he wus restored to a mother's

of affuotion and anguish bis thoughts
were over upon the being most dear to
him. although he refrained from men
tioning a name so suered. A mother's
loving intuition divined bis heart's

Special to the Xews and Courier.
Columbia, June 11.?There is such
a thing as having too much pie. It is
just about OS bad to imagine that you
have it. This is just ubout the condi
tion of affairs with what is known as
tho Reform faction in South Carolina
polities. There is lots of pie lying
around in the shape of public Office and
it would appear that every "Reformer"
imagines that by all the laws of politi
cal etiquette it is time that u piece
should be served in Iiis direction.
There aro a groat many who now Hunk
that they have been working long
enough to deserve some kind of re
cognition : by thut is meant a slice of
oflice pie.
For some time past it has been com
mon talk that the powers that bo?Irby,
Tlllman & Co?were putting their
heads together und beginning to select
the Stute ticket thut will represent the
"Reform" movement in tho coining
Campaign. There is, as might be ex
pected, considerable trouble In getting
up a good slate so as to take geograph
ical location and service into considera
tion. To-day I hail a talk with one of
the "select" and lie told me that as he
understood it a few plttCOB had already
been agreed upon. So fur as he could
remember they were :
For Govornor, .lohn Gary Evans, of
Alkon.
For Attorney Gonerul, T. J. Kirk"
land, of Kershaw.
For Superintendent of Education, M.
F. Tighe, of Charleston.
For Secretary of Stute, J, Walter
Gray, of Greonvillo.
For Stute Treasurer, .J. E. Wanna
maker or E. R. Walter, of Orange
burg.
This schedule would leave vacancies
for the positions of Comptroller (!eh
eral, Adjutant General and Lieutenant
Govornor. Tho Fee-Dee section and
tho Chester, York and Fall'flold
country would be looked to for the
candidate's to till the. other herths
There is no certainty ubout the euu
didates named, and the positions may
be interchanged. The proposed sched
ule wus given me by the Reformer as
being bona tide.
There is, however, no disposition to
swallow the Irby patent plum product.
Seoretury of State Tindal is, I boliovo,
in tlie race to the end and he is not go
ing to be side-tracked by any interest.
If he's defeated within the. Kcform
ranks then that will settle it, and not
until then. It ought to be remembered
that W. Jasper Talbert, Geo W Shell.
Ceo I). Tlllman, Dr W. T. C. Mates and
a number of others are all possible win
ners for the "Reform" Gubernatorial
nomination.
After hearing about the partial slate
several of the Huchems in the camp
were seen. They said that they had
beard of such a slate, but that there
bad been nothing done ubout it. One
of them said in the most positive man
ner: "l um quite confident that no at
tomptjhas boon made to arrange a slate.
I f one is made up you can be sure that it
will be smashed. Tho Roform party
will not be dictated to any longer, and
just as certain as anyone is on a prear
ranged schedule, just thut much less
ohanoo has he got of securing a nom
ination. The selections will be made
by a convention or not at all.
"Another thing I'll predict. Who
ever gets the nomination will be a
simon-pure member of the Reform
faction. There will be no compromise
or compromise candidates. This is go
ing to be a tight of mou with "back
bones." From now on things in the
Roform camp promise to be quite live
ly. Everybody is not quite as happy
as a year ago. There uro rumblings of
considerable disalTeetion, and 'on the
quiet' this or thut leader is getting a
pretty severe scolding. This does not
look too Well."

CLEVELAND'S SUMMER HOME.
Bolvoir, near Washington, ts where
the President and Family will lind
Rest.
During these hot summer nights.
President Cleveland finds relief from
the heat and turmoil of the city by
retiring to his country residence, about
two miles northwest of the White
House. The house! to which is given
the name of Bolvoir?a name doubtless
suggested by Mrs. Cleveland's poetic
fancy?is situated on high ground
overlooking the capital city. It is in
the same general section as Mr. Clove
land's former country house, but about
three-quarters of a mile nearer the
city. it may be. or it may not. be.
significant that while Mr. Cleveland
bought his former country home, ho
has only leased this one.
The house is an old one. with a his
tory. The estate of wjiich it is a part
was owned originally by John Plater
and Philip Harten Key. brothers-in
law who finished tho building In 1800.
Previously, shortly before the site of
tho eapitol was chosen, I'resident.
Washington stood on tho front steps of
the mansion and remarked that tho
future eapitol ought to be built either
upon the identical spot or upon tho
site that was afterwards adopted on
Capitol Hill. During Philip Harten
Key's residence there. Francis Scott
Key, author of the ''Star Spangled
Bannor," spent much of his youth on
the place, and his name may still be
soon carved on one of tho window panes
in the front hall.
Several of the old-time Presidents,
among them Van Buren. Tyler and
Buchanan. passed their summer
leisure there. In IS 17 the house was
occupied by Huron Gerault, the Gor
man minister toi the United States.
Con. Scott selected it as the site for
the Soldier's Home of the regular
army, but owing to a misunderstand
ing with the owner as to the terms,
the property was not taken for that
purpose. Likewise, the commission
appointed to locate a site for tho now
naval observatory decided upon this
property, but their decision was recon
sidered and the observatory was
erected on the Harber estate, to the
westward. Shortly before the war.
Kohert J. Walker" Secretary of the
Treasury, secured tho ownership of
the mansion and made some additions
to it. and his heir.-, hold it until 1803,
when it passed into tho possession of
the Middloton family, the present
owners. In connection with Congress

Death i of Dr. Alexander.?Dr.
William J. Alexander, of Darlington,
died on the 14th inst. from a stroke of
apoplexy. He lingered a eouple of
days after he was strickeu down, but
he was uncouscious and without-suf
fering. The Darlington correspondent
of the News and Courier writes as fol
lows :
Dr. Alexander was for live years the
pastor of the Baptist Church here
prior to his occupancy of the chair of
mental and moral philosophy tu the
South Carolira College. His public
career Is well known throughout our
State and beyond its borders, and here,
as elsewhere, he' was beloved and
honored. His character was singular
ly strong and pure, and the life pur
poses that Inflexibly animated his
every action made a man of rare moral
symmetry and worth. He was a lover
of truth and right, and bis life ex
emplified in its smallest details these
ennobling virtues.
That be was cut off in the midst of
his years, with life before him, only
adds to the sadness and grief felt at
the closing of a career of such worth
and with the promise of such large
and noble fruition.
The interment was ut the Baptist
Cemetery this afternoon, a pouring
rain not keeping away the large num
ber' of friends assembled to pay this
last mark of respect. Business wus
suspended as the casket, literally
covered with floral offerings, bore its
burden to its last resting place.
Some time before bis death Dr.
Alexander expressed u desire for the
simplest and most informal funeral
ceremonies, in accordance with this
expressed wish ami also at the speeiul
request of the family, Mr. Henry T.
Thompson read portions of the ISpisCO
pal buriul service. In the enloreed
absence of a friend who loved the deud
man as a brother, Mr. Thompson, at
i tho request of this friend, read this
I selection us u suitable epitaph :
j "Bis life was gentle, and the ele
ments so mixed in him thut nature
I might stand up and say to all the world,
'< 'This wus a num.' "
Dr. Alexander loaves a wife and
three children, und with them thooom
I niunity shares with deepest sympathy
I the sense of bereavement and loss that
I all too soon conies from this sad and
> untimely death.
?The Augusta Exchange has receiv
ed answers to inquiries us to the con
dition of the cotton crop from four
counties in South Carolina and eleven
in Georgia. They report the average
increases of area at ."> per cent. The
crop will be later than last year. Con
siderable replanting will be necessary,
owing to cool nights, cut worms and
high winds. Labor is plentiful.
?A disastrous rain and wind storm
swept over South Georgia onThursduy
I afternoon. Valdosta and Thomasvlllu
report many houses blown down. The
negro Baptist Church and the tiro de
