Liberal reduction made for large Advertisements. W. W. Ball, Proprietor. LAURENS. S. <;., April 18, 1904. Protest should be General. What can Tun Advertiser effect by complaining about the want of mail servico suffered by this town? The morning mail has been taken off?once again the town is loft with 24 hour in tervals betweon news arrivals from the outside world. Laurens has a popula tion of 5,000 people. There are rail ways loading North, South, East and West. Laurens has great industries and a largo business. Those railways wore in largo part constructed by money derived, from the pockets of Laurens taxpayers, Tho railway debt incurred Is not yet paid. It is an out rage that ibo town secures no more consideration. Of course it is. But what can The Advertiser do? It has for a year contained editorial after editorial on this subject. They have accomplished nothing. Meanwhilo tho railway companies are- acutely rospon3lve to public opin ion. When the people of Laurens, if they agree with The Advertiser, unlto in a vigorous protest, and then protest again and again, the Railway Companies will listen. When the business men of Laurens join to divert business in a w.ay that certain railways will feel, then these railways will heed. Meanwhile, the location of the Lau rens passenger station Is probably the most dangerous of any in a small town on the faco of tbo earth. The station 8eoms to be located by design in such a way as will cause tho greatest number of people possible to cross tho greatest number of tracks at the hour when the greatest number of trains arrive and dopart. Uad the railway companies had for their object tho construction of a trap In which to catch persons and. vohic'es and kill and maim them in the catching, they could not have con trived one raoro sultab'e for the at tainment of such malign purposes. However, the railway companies have every reason to believe that the town people are satisfied wl'h condi tions as they exl?t. Practically, the protesting is con lined to THE Advkr TISER, * Parker Leads. Tho developments of tho past ten days point to a walk-over In the Na tional Domocratic Convention for Judge Altm B. Parker. All doubt of his ability to command the support of New York State in the Convention has disappeared. Congressmen generally from tho South arc crowding to his standard. Judge Parker is comparatively a young man?of about 64 years?and he has ability of a high order. He spoaks only when thore is reason to speak,He is not merely clear-hoaded but he Is level headed. He is the kind of man that oaptures tho confidence of the substan tial poople everywhero?whether they be laborers, farmers or bankers. Hearst will have strength In the Con vention. Hearst has in his favor a mild sort of backing from Bryan. Whatever may be thought of Mr. Bryan, he is personally a decant, honest, earnest and reliable man ? as much so as is Judge Parker. Of Hearst the same can by no means be said . Hearst has nei ther ability nor a good record person ally. If Mr. Bryan should be renom Inated this year, it would t e a party blunder. If Heart should bo nomin ated it would be no lo3s a blunder and aa overlivsving disgrace to the party as well. However, the candidate of the Demo cratic party fjr president will in all likelihood bi Alton B. Parker of New York?a man who can w'n. k Buy a Blank Book. Now is tho lime for tho farmer to buy a ton cmt blank book. Let him keep a careful account of his farm expen ditures. Lot him know at the year's end how his money has been spent. To koep books doos not require expert knowledge. It does not require that a system should be kept such as Is neces sary in a bank or a store. Every farm er should know what he is doing and no fanner can expect to succeed who does not. * It has boon "given out" from Wash ington that certain four "big men" are to be so.at as delegates at large to the National Democratic Convention from South Carolina. How should they know in Washington? Is it not passing strange that the future of the South Carolina Domocracy can bo be6t pro ph3sled from the District of Columbia? Aftor all, is thore not some reason in favor of tho paoplo's claim to manage their own affairs? If Senator Tillman should desire to go to the St. Louis Convention, and the Democracy so wishes, let the Democ racy send him. Meanwhilo if tho De mocracy should wish to sond Col. John O. Hnskvll of Columbi i, for example, as well, lot tho Democracy sond him. Incidentally it may be remarked that Col. Ua&kell would make an admira ble delegate, because he has been a membor of the National Committee and has a wide acquaintance through out tho country. Mr. Stanyarne Wil son would bo an able and creditable deb-gate for South Carolina. However, It s ?oms from the present outlook that the gontlemen who hold offices will see to it that those who do not hold offices must stay in tho background. If they can.

THE startling assertion created a fr??!: sensation. Bensations bad come so thick and so fast, how ever, that they Kccmcd compo nent parts of one grand, bewildering climax. Tbe new actor in the drama hold the center of the stage undisputed. "Harry 1" cried Lorry. "Prince Gabriel, why do you Bbake like a leaf? In It because you know what I am going to say?" exclaimed Anguish, pointing his finger accusingly at tbe astonished Prince of Dawsber geu. Gabriel's lips parted, but nothing more than a gasp escaped them. In voluntarily his eyes sought the door, then the windows, the peculiar, uncon trollable look of the bunted coming in to them. Bolaroz allowed his gate to leap instantly to that pallid face, and overy eye in tbo room followed. Yetlve was siaudlng again, her face glowing. "An accomplice has confessed all. I have the word of the man who saw tbe crime committed. I chnrgo Prince Gabriel with the murder of bis high ness Prince Lorons." With a groan Gabriel threw bis hands to his heart and tottered for ward, glaring at the merciless faco of the accuser. "Coufossed! Betrayed I" ho faltered. Then he whirled like a maniac upon his little coterie of followers. "Vile traitor!" he shrieked. "I will drink your heart's blood!" With n howl he leaped toward one of the men, a dark faced nobleman named Berrowng. The latter evaded blm and rushed toward tbe door, cry ing: "It is a lie, a lie! He has tricked you! I did not confess!" The prince was seized by his friends, struggling nnd cursing. A peculiar smile lit up the face of Harry Anguish. "I repent, he Is the assassin I" Gabriel broke from tbe detaining hands and, drawing a revolver, rushed for the door. "Out of tbo way! I will not be taken alive!" A Mode met him at the curtains and grasped 1dm in his powerful arms, Baron Dnngloss and others tearing tbe weapon from his hand. The utmost confusion relgnod?women screaming, men shouting?and above all could be heard the bowls of the accused prince. "Let me go! Curse you! Curse you! 1 will not surrender! J.et me kill that traitor! Let me at him!" Berrowag had been seized by willing bands, and the two men glared at each other, ono crar.y with rage, the other shrinking with fear. Dnngloss and Allode hnlf carried, half dragged the prince forward. As he neared Bolnror. and the princess be collapsed nnd became a trembling, moaning suppliant for mtfrcy. An guish's accusation had struck home. "Prince Bolaroz, I trust you will not object If the Princess Yetivo substi tutes the true assassin for tbe mnn named In your promise to Graustark," said Anguish dramatically. Bolaroz, as If coming from a dream, turned and knelt before the throne. "Most adorable Yetivo," be said, "I sue for pardon. I bow low and lay my open heart before the truest woman In the world." He kissed the black lace hem of her gown and arose. "I am your friend and ally. Axphaln nnd Oraustark Will live no more with hatred In their hearts. Prom you I have learned a lesson In Justice and Con sta ney." Prince Gabriel was raving like a madman as the officers hurried him and Berrowng from the room. A shout went u|> from those assembled. Its echo, reaching the halls, then the gar dens, was finally taken up by the wait ing masses beyond the Kates. The news How like wildfire. Ilejolclng such as had never been known shook Edel weiss until the monks on the mountain looked down In wonder. After the dazed and happy throng nbov.t the throne had heaped Its ex pressions of love and devotion upon the radiant princess a single llgure knelt in subject ion Just ns she was prepar ing to depart. It was the Duke of Ml/. rox. "Your royal highness, Mlzrox Is ready to pay hi.st forfeit. My life Is yours," he said calmly. She did not compre hend until her undo reminded her of the oath Mlzrox had taken the morn ing after the murder. "lie swore on his life that you killed Lorenz." she said, turning to Lorry. T was wrong, but 1 nm wllllug to pay the penally. My love for Lorenz was greater than my discretion. That is my only excuse, but it Is one you sin.v.Id not accept," sold Mlzrox, ns coolly as If announcing the time of day. Lorry looked first at him nnd then at the princess, bewildered nnd uncertain. "I bnve no III will against you, my lord duke. Helease him from bis bond, your highness." "Gladly, since you refuse to hold him to bis oath," she said. "I nin under an eternal obligation to you, sir, for your leniency, nnd I shall over revere the princess who pardons yo graciously tbe gravest error." Yetivo begged Bolaroz to continue to make the court his home wdiile In Grau stark, and the old prince responded with the declaration that he would re main long enough to sign nnd approve the new covenant nt least. Before step, ping from the throne Yetlve culled in low tones to Lorry, n pretty flush man tllug her cheek: "Will you come to me In half an hour?" "Por my reward?" he asked eagerly. "Achl" she cried softly, reprovingly. Tonnt Halfont's face took on a trou bled expression ns he caught the swift communication In their eyes. After all, she was a princess. She passed from the room beside Hal font, proud and happy In the vic tory over despair, glorying In the ex posure of her heart to the world, her idood tingling and dancing with the Joys of anticipation. Lorry and An guish, tbo wonder nod admiration of nil, were given n abort but convincing levee In the hallway. Lords and la dies praised nnd lauded them, over whelming them with the homage that .'on ic i to the brave. But Gaspon ut tered one wish that struck Ixirry's warm, leaping heart like a piece of ice. "Would to God tbat you were a prince of the realm/' said the minister of finance, a look of regret and long ing in his eyes. That wish of Gaspon's sent Lorry away with the sharp steel of desolation torturing intensely na It drove deeper nnd deeper the rcawak ened pangs of uncertainty. There st Iii remained the fata) distance between him nnd the object of bit f.wart's de sire. He accompanied Captain Qu.lnnox <o 'ii i quurU is. where he made himself proseutnblo before starting for tne cu? chanted upurtir.ont in tho fur end of tho ensile. Love und fear combined lo give him strength; from bis eyes lied the hopeless look, from bis brain the doiibt, from his blood the chill. "Quinnox, glvo mo your hand; don't mind tho blood! You have been, my friend, und you havo served her ul most lo the denth. I Injured nnd would have killed you In tbnt cell, but It was not In anger. Will you bo my friend In nil that is to follow?"* "She has said tlint she loves you," {?aid the captain, returning tho bund Clasp. "I niU at your service us well ns hers." A few moments later Lorry was In her presence. What was said or done during the half hour that passed be tween his entrance and the moment that brought them side by sido from tho room need not be told. That the Interview had bail Its serious sido was plain. Tho troubled, anxious eyes of the girl and the rebellious, dogged air of the man told of a conflict new only In abeyance. "I will never give you up," ho said as they came from the door. A wist ful gleam lllcUeivd in her eyes, but sho aid not respond In words. Near the head of tho stairway an ani mated group of persons lingered. Har ry Anguish was In the center, and tho Countess Dagmar was directly In front of him, looking up with sparkling eyes nnd parted lips. The Count and Count ess Hnlfont, Qnspon, tho Baron Dan gloss, tho Duke of Mlzi'OX, with other ladles and gentlemen, were being en tertained by the gay spirited stranger. "Hero ho comes," cried the latter as he caught sight of the approaching couple. "I am delighted to see you, Harry. You were the friend In need, old man," said Lorry, wringing the other's hand. Yetlvo gave him her hand, her blue eyes overflowing. "Mr. Anguish had just begun to tell us how he?how he"? began Dagmar, but paused helplessly, looking to him for relief. "Go ahead, countess. It Isn't very elegant, but It's the way I said It. How I 'got next* to Gabriel is what sho wants to say. Perhaps your highness would like to know all about the affair that ended so tragically. It's very quickly told," said Anguish. "I am deeply Interested," said the princess eagerly. "Well, In the first place, it was nil a bluff," said he coolly. "A what?" demanded Dagmar. "Bluff," responded Harry briefly. "American pntols, dear countess." "In what respect?" asked Lorry, be ginning to understand. "Iu all respects. I didn't havo tho slightest sign of proof against the fes tive prince." "Do I understand you to say that you have no evidence against GabrielV" asked Hnlfont, dumfounded. "Not a particle." "But you said his confederate had confessed," protested Dangloss. "I didn't know that he had a confed erate, and I wasn't sure that ho was guilty of the crime," boasted Anguish, complacently enjoying the stupefaction. "Then why did you say so?" demand ed Dangloss, excited beyond measure. "Oh, I Just guessed at It!" "God save us!" gasped Baron Dan gloss, ehlef of police. "Guessed at It?" cried Mlzrox. "That's It. It was a bold stroke, but It won. Now, I'll tell you this much: I was morally certain that Gabriel kill ed the prince. There was no way on earth to prove it, however, and I'll ad mit It was intuition or something of that sort which convinced me. Ho had tried to abduct the princess, nnd he was madly jealous of Loren/.. Al though he knew there was to be a duel, he was not certain that Lorenz would lose, so ho adopted a clever plan to get rid of two rivals by killing one nnd easting suspicion on the other. These deductions I made soon after the mur der, but, of course, could secure no proof." "Early this morning tit fho hotel I mndo up my mind to denounce him suddenly If I had the chance, risking failure, but hoping for such an exhibi tion as that which you saw. It was clear to me that ho had an accomplice to stand guard while ho did the stab bing, but I did not dream It was Ber rowag. Lorry's sensational appear ance, when I believed him to be far away from here, disturbed mo greatly, but it made it all the more necessary that I should take tho risk with Ga briel. As I watched him I became ab solutely convinced of his guilt. Tho only way to accuse hlin was to do it boldly and thoroughly; so I rang in the accomplice and the witness features. You all know how the 'bluff worked." "And you bad no more proof than this?" nsked Dangloss weakly. "That's nil," laughed the delighted strategist. Dangloss stared at him for a moment, then threw up his hands and walked away, shaking his head, whether in Stupefied admiration or titter disbelief no one knew. The others covered An guish with compliments, and he was more than ever the hero of tho day. Such confidence paralyzed tlvj people. Tho only one who was not overcome with astonishment was his country man. "You did It well," he s.ild in r.n un dertone to Anguish?"devilish wolll" "You might id least sn.V I did it to the queen's taste,-' growled Anguish meaningly. "Well, then, you did," laughed Lorry.
