Alken. Jan. 11.?Some excitement was caused last night by the attack made by a negro upon a resoectable widow who lives on the outskirts of the city, and while the matter was kept very quiet it became known this morning that half a dozen men searched for several hours for the un known negro, without, however, locat ing him. Having remained in town until after dark the woman was walking home and had reach a point near "Orange drove," the winter home of W. But id Duncan, when the negro, who had been following her for some distance, taking advantage of the darkness and the seclusion of the place, advanced more rapidly behind hor. Frightened, the woman stopped and demanded of the negro to know where he was go ! Ing. He replied he was on his way to the race track to look for a job. lie was told then to go on, and not to be following behind, as he had been do ing. At tills the negro sprang at the woman and struck her a blow in the side. As she fell she screamed, and ; Some one at a nearby house opened a door and asked what was the trouble. The negro took to his heels and dis appeared in the darkness. He was tracked by the sheriff and a number ' of men across an open field, but ali trace of him was lost. The sheriff still has hope of catch ing him as the woman gave a very clear description of her assailant. EKOM NOTES. Ekom. Jan. 13.?The Christmas hol idays were very quietly spent in this section.

Jan. 13.?Many thanks to the generous correspondent from Mad den for the nice compliment tendered me in last week's Advertiser. The writer is glad that the Madden writ er is in line for compulsory educa tion. The writer is also In favor of "votes for women". If women were allowed to cast a baiioi. lue majority would support the Christian element. I Dispensaries and blind tigers would cease to exist, grafters and gamblers would wear the stripes, and a clean government would prevail. Men don't seem to care enough for a clean gov ernment to cast their ballots for it. or even voice their sentiment for it. So long as men cast not their ballot for this kind of government, so long as the grafter and gambler go free: so long as the voters vote not for a ] clean government and for officials to ] match, who then, ran those men blame when anything goes wrong in Ameri ca? Isn't there someone else in South Carolina who will help push forward this movement, Viz '."votes for wo men"? Messrs. C. T. Peden. NY. M. tolllson, J. F. Weathers, L. n. Eiskew, J. A. and J. \V.

Blease run against Sen. E. D. Smith, two years hence, for the 1'nited States senatorshlp? If he ; does he stands a gcod chance of los ing. Blease will eventually lose. Bill Thompson gave a singing at his i home Sunday night. According to an editorial In a news j paper of P>t. Paul. Minn., there's a possibility of abandoning the annual governor's conference on account of Cole L. Blease. The editor says a man like Blease would attend with out an Invitation, hence the question of abandoning. It is evr thus. Well, this we know, that the Calhouns and Haynes have disappeared from the horizon of South Carolina. There are people in Hillside who are old in years, yet them can nelth ! er read nor write. There are fathers ; and mothers, here who are in that pit iable condition. Can they be wholly blamed? No. If there had been a com '< pulsory education law twenty-five j years ago these people would have been educated: their children would have seen better advantages. These ' people see. partly, what th lack of ed ucation means yet they do not fully appreciate its true value. Every child should be given an education. If ; the parents do not wish for their children to attend school, they should be compelled, by the laws of the state, to see that they attend a certain num ber of months each year, unless hin dered b ysickness, or other sufficient reasons. These same boys and girls that tottle after us row. must some day be the citizens?the main pillars? of this state. These children are the future citizens. Someday (and not long hence) this government must rest upon the shoulders of the chil dren of today. Shall it fall into the hands- of uneducated people? Let's have a compulsory education law, and thus pave the way for a greater state. ; for, by thus doing we spread .lowers over, and make smooth the pathway, over which the feet of the future cit izen must trod.

Their complexion has a sickly greenish cast which gives the disease its name. They have no vitality and it exposed to any unusual excitement, excessive labor or cold dampness are liable to contract some aisease that will disastrously effect their whole future lives.

It does the work expected of it more promptly than the harsh, bitter tasting medicines. It begins the restorative process with the first dose and if used for a reasonable period, the mise?y. weakness and pallor disappear, the spirits r s^, the appetite becomes good, the sleep sound and restful and the thin, vitiated biood is rev talized and goes coursing through the veins, carrying new life, strength and energy to ail parts of the body.
