LAUKKNS. S. C, April 8, 1001. Greenwood. Business called us last week to our neighboring little city. We went down on the night, of tho* storm, and the lightnings played and the storm King raged, hut we had travelled so little lately that wo Imagined that abroad these were normal condit ions we were to moot. Greenwood is a handsome ' town and there is much to admire.? They have a j< wol ot a hotel and are very justly vain of it, and Brinson, the landlord, eives you a hearty greeting; everything is as neat as a pin and you arc happy and want to stay ovor. They have built a now Court lIou?o and tho grounds are spa cious and umbrageous; the great square is In orderly trim, the streets well do lined, and notably the line shade trees uro porfect and not a scar or maim on oak, elm or poplar to mar their grace ful symetry. Spring time had come and the mock-bird, and the red breast sported and made their matin SOORS to their mates and not a young George Washington could be seen with his deadly little gun to make them afraid. "When WO plant a tree wo are doing what we can to make our planet a more wholesome and happier dwelling-place for those who come after us if not for our.solves." A bird's-eye view showed us great stretches of wide and handsome streets, magnificent business houses, very neat and handsome residential mansions, Shenstonlaa gardens, walks and grounds, while In the distUOCOCOUld be heard the dull, sober and prosy hum of the whirling wheels of industry that make all this taste and elegance possl blo and practicable. It is really a liandsome, tasteful town and promises to bo what the thorough-paced Green wood young man expects to see it?a socond edition ot tile great dato city of the Empire State of the South. All of this we enjoyed and all Intensified as wo recalled that the Ballovs, PlllSODS, Wells. Barksdale, Gambrell, Park and others, were of the Aladdin group that helped to rear the castles, with >Vbar ton and Jenkins and a score of others, new comers, to keep up the good work Our stay III this pleasant little city was Bhort, but it was delightful, If only for a moment to greet a number of old VOtS, K8 a rule, halo and hearty; as Sheriff Hob McOasHn, <'!erk Turner, Blake, Pin.-on, Vlnney Crlllio, and 0X Beoretary of State, I?an Tompkin?, an old comrade of the Hampton Legion otheis and others. You should leave home occasionally to greet good fellows, to put your best foot foremost and lo think woll ol tho rest of the world and to lind that your own crows are not ne cessarily the whitest. Anderson Congratulated. What they call the "Shylock Busi ness" has been unearthed In Anderson. A case cnnio up before Magistrate Wil BOD. The fact run thusly: "On Nov. J. I'JGO. Henry Williams borrowed *10 from Watson,' and gave his note for $13.00, payable 12* days af ter date. The aggregato of payments by Williams from Nov. 10, 1000, wai $27.05, and the defendant still claimed $10.85 as due " Tho borrower was Plaintiff. Magis trate Wilson heard the case and his de cision was this wise: "I lind for the plaintiiT the return of tho property in dispute, or in case a return thereof cannot bo had, for the sum of *f>0 -the value of said prop erty." Seven bo d fellows caino into an Ohio town last week in broad day light, raided and looted a Bank. The citizens rose from all quarters, but the looters deployed in military fashion and made good their retreat. The Robin Hood stylo of tho West is in hold relief to tho oily Watsonian methods of An derson. Ordinarily "the p?n is (not) mightier than tho sword," but it does come around occasionally that a Mag istrate like the Anderson Wilson is to be found and therefore the county is to bo congratulated. * * ? Kidnapped. Governor Troupe warred with tho General Government until ho got rid of the Indians in Oborokf eGeorgia and every household in that State had a dog named Tro.ip.Two years ago Aguinaldo was a hero und similarly hono ed in ibis country. Hy treachery of one of his staff, Funston, the Kansas Hoosier General, has effected his capture, It was a dirty Yankee trick, such as they played on Oscoloa, tho Stminolo chief. Funston wi 1 he made a Major General and lionized, while Aguinaldo will ho sent to Guam or other sunburnt island to melt and starve.

In human beings tho attractive qualities have always been on the side of the female. Why Is It? Without wishing to cast any aspersion on the members of the superior sex. we may fairly an 1 swer that It Is because they have hith erto been the less educated. But wom an's Ideas are changing. She has lis tened to the voice of the tempter, whis pering In her ear all sorts of sweet fal lacies about equality of the sexes, In tellectual development and its neces sity, and the like, and she has yielded to the temptation. And the result of this will be that she will lose her beauty. She will suffer in appearance ns mna has done and Is doing, and In the course of time the extremely civ ilized races of mankind will be ugly? Irretrievably and lamentably ugly.? Pearson's Magazine.
