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.

CHAPTER XXVI.
TUE OUKSSINQ UV AROUI8H.
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.

CnrcAoo, III., Oct. 7, 1902.
Eight montha ago I was so ill
that I was compelled to Iis or sit
down nearly all ths time. Ify
stomach was bo weak and upset
that I could keep nothing on it
and I vomited frequently. I
could not urinate without great
pain and I coughed so much that
my throat and lungs were raw
and sore. The doctors pro
nounced it Bright'* disease and
others said it was consumption.
It natUred little to tns what
they called it and I had no de
sire to live. A sister visited m<
from St. Louis and asked ma if
I had over tried Wine of Cardui.
I told her I had not and she
bought a bottle. I believe that
it saved my life. I believe maay
women could save much suffer
ing if they but knew of its valae.
Don't you want freedom from
pain? Take Wine of Cardui
and mako one supreme effort to
be well. You do not need to be
a weak, helpless sufferer. You
can have a woman's health and
