Current Events.
The count proceeds in old Kentucky
and It looks like the Republicans win.
In Nebraska there Is a sick Senator
aud they talk ol Bryan in the event of
a vacancy.
The war is active in South Africa.
The British eecm to have the advan
tage. Much bravery Is exhibited and
u spirit of chivalry seems to animate
both sides. The chevalier Bayard
scorns to be the exemplar of the con
testants. That is to say?when a fel
low is decently blown up with a shell
?they gather up the remains, incase
in rosewood, smother in violets, and
sond proper regrets to wife, mother
and sisters. Tho Boers should win,
but the chances are 1000 to I agalnsf
them.
In Alabama Senator Morgan and
Governor Johnson arc canvassing tho
Stato for United States Senator. Sym
pathy goes out to the patient listeners
In our little State tho war for the
present Is confined to Sellers, in Ma
rlon county. There has been some
blood. One party charges that in tho
lato encounter the other was clad in
jackets of steel. The press of the State
is throatencd with further revelations
on these troubles.
Congross convenes on Hoc. lib Since
tho 4th of March McKinley has car
ried the fortunes of the country in ills
vest pocket. The Congress will not
change his policy, as Sena'c and
House are overwhelmingly republican
?with a sprinklfng of anti-cxpanslon
ists. So, gentle reader, yon kuow what
to expect without waiting for the Pres
ident's message

War in Hie East.
Tho Out/, and Hasoldcn fusiladti of
words was transfered to Sellers, in
Marion comity, during last week. J.
Dudloy Haselden, a member of tho so
called Board of Cont rol, lives in Ma
rion county and charged Hen Sellers
with tho authorship of a letter. Unlike
tho patient Job- "Oh that mine enemy
would write a book"?Mr. Ilaseldcn
didn't relish the contents of the let
ter. Tho result was an engagement
with small and heavy lire arms. There
wore'four at least of the Haselden fac
tion and two of tho Sellers, who are
named, and tho Haseldens think there
wero more. Ben Sellers and his fa
ther are dangerously shot, one of them
with a forty four calibre rille ball
through the body; Haselden has a pis
tol shot in the calf of one leg and one
other of his faction was slighty hit ?
The parties charge each other witn
allowing tho white feather, 'a serious
matter as this world goes.) The pub
lic will hardly get at the truth on this
lino?but the boys down there are apt
to guess who did the turkey trotting
This affair was sidetracked from the
big dispensary scandal in Columbia
Thore will probably be more killing
In the meanwhile the parties rank up
among the X X X respectables and the
Judges, Solicitors, and Grand Juries
will scarcely venture to tackle the
case.

Douthit, State Liquor Commissioner,

Aldrlch, he holding that the Hoard of
Control took breeches bold on Dou

lorum of tho Board, has been winged
in the leg, and the trial of Douthit is
postponed until December.

The meteoric display did not mater

sat out last Wednesday night waiting

the Dean of St. Patrick (Swift) at
Dublin, to bis annoyance Where
upon the Dean sent his servant to say
that ho hud ordered the performance
postponed. And the crowd retired.

A Hill PoHtcr'N Trick.
"Of course wo used to put up small
bills wherever they'd catch the eye,"
said n bill poster who traveled with a
circus making one day stands, "and
one thing we used to do that always
pleased folks was to hang a bill from
a ceiling. You had to have a wooden
celling, to start with, and then all you
wanted, besides the bills, was a tack
und a sliver dollar. It took practice to
do It, but when you'd got the knack it
was very simple and easy.
"You attached two hills together, one
nt the foot of the other so that It would
hang down when the llrst one was at
tached to the celling. Then you folded
the bills up, with a tack, thrust point
upward through the top fold of the up
per bill, with a silver dollar under it,
up against Its head and between it and
the other folds of paper under it.
"Then, some time when the room was
full of people?this might be a hotel of
flee or perhaps a barroom?you tossed
the bills up, and there was weight
enough In tho dollar to drive the lack
into the ceiling far enough to hold.
Then the weight of the paper Itself
and of the dollar would open the bills
out, and the coin would drop and you'd
catch it as it fell, and the chances are
that not one man In live would see It
fall. Tho bills would be seen, fasten
ed up there somehow, most of the peo
ple wouldn't know how, and opening
out with the lower bill, hanging so you
COUld road it.
"This was not the greatest thing in
bill posting ever was, but, as I said be
fore, always pleased folks."?New

Very CnrloiiH Weulher.
At Alto Orucero water freezes every
night of the year and the thermometer
frequently falls to 0, 8 and 10 degrees
below zero. There are no facilities for
artificial heat?not even a fireplace -
and people keep themselves warm by
putting on ponchos and other extra
wraps.
At noonday the sun Is intensely hot,
because of the elevation and the rarity
of the atmosphere,and blisters the llesll
of those who are not accustomed to It.
There is a difference of 20 and some
times 80 degrees In the temperature of
tho shado and the sunshine. Water will
freeze In the shade while 20 feet away
men may be working in their shirt
sleeves.
The natives seem to be entirely
inured to cold and go about barefooted
and barelegged over the lee and the
RtOUCS Indifferently without regard to
the temperature; but they have a way
of heaping the blankets on their heads
and wrapping up their faces to keep
the pure air out of their throats and
nostrils. The women who herd the
llocka are often out on tho mountains
for weeks at a time without shelter or
anything to ent except parched corn,
strips of dried moat and coca leaves,
which are the most powerful of nerve
