PUBLSlIED EVERY THU' RSDAY AT NEWBERRY, S. C. CURIOSITIES OF AGRICULTURE. Roots of the Calla L as kood-Cateipil lars Which Be ar Mushrooms. ASmINTON, August 2.-A jnew vegetable is about to be introduced to the people of tie United States through the Depa:trment of Agricul ture. It is nothing more nor less than t'e root of the caia lily, which resem bles somewhat in appearance the or dinary Irish tuber, "-ith the addition ol a few whiskers that have nothing to do with the rqh'ualities of the e u -oil oti is so potatolike .uat you would not be likely to remark any difference. In cooking it has first to be boiled, in order to destroy certain acrid properties, after which it may be fried, roasted, baked, or what not, ac cording to taste. Farmers in Florida have begun to raise these calla roots for market. The plants grow readily in swamps, and so thickly that the yield ofa single flooded acre is enormous. They reproduce themselves by the multiplication of their bulbs underground, so that the grower has simply to dig up the off shoots and leave parents to propagate anew. For centuries the Egyptians have cultivated a similar crop during the seasons of the Nile's overflow, and at the present time calla lily bulbs are a common vegetable in Japanese mar kets. So prolific and palatable are they that their propagation in many parts of the United States, where con ditions are favorable may be looked for ward to as an agricultural industry, of the future. The Department of Agriculture is continually engaged in trying to dis cover and encourage the cultivation of new and desirable varietis of fruits. Lately it has come across a sort of gialt gooseberry that grows on trees, and within the last few days a long-sought prize has been obtained from Benton Harbor, Mich.. in the shape of a really thornless blackberry. The picking of this delectable fruit has hitherto been interfered with to some extent by the spikes with which nature protects the branches, but in the future, it is hoped, people will be able to go blackberrying without danger of pricking their knigers. Experiments are making for the first time in the grafting of pecan trees. Accidental seedlings in Texas and New Mexico have developed nuts of this kind as far superior to the ordinary ones as the shellbark is to the l 'onut. Furthermore, it has been demonstn- .ed that these improved varieties can reA.a ily be perpetuated, and even bettered, by grafting. Only a little cultivat ion is necessary to produce pecans of five or six times the size of the usual speci mens and with shells so papery aa to be easily broken between the forefinger and thumb. The writer saw 5. good sized pasteboard full of such samples in the office of the United States Po mologist yesterday, and ate a few to make sure of their delicious quality. The same process is possible with chest nuts, which grow to the size of a horsechestn~ut in some parts of the Uniited States. They, too, are being grafted with a view to seenring the in *erease of their simand the improve ~ edible qualities. In a certain Illinois valley hickory nuts * used to grow as wide as t'3e palm of one's hand, and efforts are being made to obtain a surviving plant so as to a propagate from them. The Detpartmlent of State has just received from Consul Jones at ChinS Kiang, China, a st.aall bottle contain-t ing some specimens of the curious fun gus that grows from a species of cater-t pillar, literally transforming the ani mal into a vegetable and causing the unhappy insect to serve the purpose of a root. It is the larva of a moth, and when the cold of winter approaches it makes its way down into the soil to b the depth of three or four inches. There it is attacked by a remarkableg disease and sprouts, sending up a long shoot which appears and fructifies above the ground like any mushroom. a The natives in Thibet and in then province of Sze-Khuan go about look ing for this fungus near myrtle trees of it a certain sort. They dig up such speci- : mens as they discover and make them s into little bundles, tied with red thread. In this shape they are sold as a med icine which is esteemed, if possible, more highly than the famous ginseng, being considered a powerful curative ti agent for diseases of the throat and lungs. This fungus has no other method of growth than the one described. The fructifying top that is above ground scatters its spores around under theb scarlet-flowered myrtles on which thew caterpillars feed. When the latter t burrow into the soil to hibernate, they g are apt to stir up some of the hostile t germs, whereupon they are at once attacked and speedily transformed into Ti vegetable tissue. The substance of t. their flesh is metamorphosed into stalks sprouting from their heads. Of course, a suflcient number of the larvic escape this fate to perpetuate the species froni year to year and to sup reproductive opportunities f.r the fun SCuriously enough, the comnmon white he grub, which is tne larva' of a beetle, is to in many parts of the l'nited States attacked by a fungus in a similar man ner. It has been suggested that ineas- qi ures might be protitably taken to ar- ce tificially inoculate this l estructive wormi on a large scale with thie disease, wtih a view to bringing about its ex- 1 termination. Thus far no economic an use has been found for the snrouts pro- se dluced. In New Zealand tuere grows out of the body of a big caterpillar a surprising edible mushroom, the stalks of which are eight to ten inches long, C: and are much prized by the natives for .re food. The latter also burn it for use as J a coloring matter. There is a similar funaus in Costa Rica. of The Japanese grow several species of cc edible fungi in logs of decayed wood bl< after a fashion peculiar to themselves. b One species of mushroom, wvhch is in: utilized in Europe for killing Ilies, be- on ing regarded as one of the mnost poison- th ous forms, is used by the northeastern ga tribes of Asia as a substitute for ardent ev spirits, a single large spee'men being Pi sumcient to produce a pleasant intox- st: ication for a whole day. By the Chi- by nese stIll another variety is made to of serve as a dye for silk. These are only of a ' few of the existing curiosities in the va -fzgus line. : esi VANCE WILL GET EVEN WITH H13 A Nineteen-Year-Old Beauty Charged i His Account as a War Widow. "At the last session of Congress played it very low down on my frien< Senator Vance, of North Carolina, said T. F. Kennedy, Canadian Pacif ticket agent, to a reporter for the S Louis Globe-Democrat. "A rath( pretty girl, with whom I had a sligi acquaintance, asked for a letter to tb Agricultural Department people recon mending her for a place in the see< distribution rooms. I went to Van< and he growled 'No, sir, I'll recon mend no woman for a place.' I argue and pleaded with him, finally sayinj 'But Senator, this is a very deservin woman.

The lette was written and the girl got the jol Some months after this I was sittin with Vance on a steamboat, when u walked this blooming damsel-she wa about 19-with a 'how are you, cal tain?' to me.

Vance looked at me as much a to say, 'you just wait,' and accepted tb person's tbanksand languishing glance very quietly. When she had gon Vance turned to me and remarke mournfully: 'Kennedy, you are th biggest liar and most stupendous frau on earth. I'll pay you for this if wait forty years.' " Turpentine's Many Uses. Turpentine is an article so widel, used in the arts and so easily obtaine that its virtues as a domestic remed, have, in a great measure, been over looked, says the Boston Globe. In the early stages of crou p or almos any throat or chest trouble it is we] nigh a specific. Rub the chest anm throat until the skin is red, tben tie ; piece of flannel or cotton batting ove the chest moistened with a few drop of the oil, and inhale the vapor. B: rubbing on sweet oil, irritation of thf skin may be avoided. For burns it is invaluable, appliet either with a rag or in a salve. Th( pain vanishes and healthy granulatio soon begins. Its use is at first attende with considerable smarting, but thi permanent good more than compev; 5ates for it. Turpentine in which is dissolved a nuch camphor as it will take up ih pre-eminently the dressing for lacera :ion, bruises and cuts. Its antisepti( Lction is equal to carbolic acid; it speed. ly stops the bleeding (Hunter sayI 'it is the best, if not the only trui ~typtic"), allays the pain and hastens :he process of healing. Few, if any ilcers long resist its continued applica. 1on. As a liniment, turpentine with equal >arts of laudanum, camphor and chlc oform is unsurpassed. Sprains, rheu natic pains, bruises, and sometime-i ven neuralgia, yield to its magic influ nce. As an inhalation turpentine had Iroven of great service in bronchitis, neumonia, pleurisy and other throat *nd lung affections. If you have ;t ough, sprinkle a little on a handker hief and hold to your mouth and nose or a few minutes, breathing the vapor, nd note the relief. Internally turpentine has enjoyed r a century the reputation of being a pecific for sciatic. Its mode of opera ion is unknown, but that it cures bands as proof of its virtue. Ten drops bree times a day in sweetened water the dose. As a remedy for the bane rt child ood, worms, it is well kno 'n. '.tea poonful given in a half glass of sweet ned milk, followed in an hour or two y a full dose of castor oil, seldom fails. he practice of our grandmothers in Wring it to us on sugar for coughs and re throat was based on common sense. A bath in a half pint of turpentine 2d two pounds of sal soda in an ordi ary bath tub, three-quarters full of ater, at 100* Fahrenheit, will cure the ch when other remedies fail. ThreE four baths, one daily, are usuaj,1 ifficient. Cotton soaked in olive oil and tur mtine and put in the ear often stope ~rache of the most painful kind. In the hands of the physician turpen ne is of great value in typhoid fever, id of late is used in yellow fever with eat success. And last, it is a sure antidote for iosphorus, such as children often vallow when they lunch on match ~ads. Five or ten drops floated on ater should be given every hour till *e danger is past. No oily or mucila nous z'ubstances should be taken. If e stomach is unable to retain it, it ay be given as an enema in double *e quantity. Keep turpentine in your house. Truth in Di8guised Form. [Chicago Tribune.] The wvayward young man, broken in ~alth, had gone to the far Southwest recuperate. He was in the jail at >mbstone, Ari., for stealing a hind iarter of beef. In the loneliness of his 11 he sat down and wrote as follows: "D-:AR FATHER: I have picked up me flesh since I came out here, but I a still confined to my room. Please nd me $100," &c. Gallant Rufus Choate. On a pretty girl saying to Rufus loate, "I am very sad-you-sec," he plied, "0, no ; you belong to the old wish sect.; you are very fair-I-sce !" Nothing adds so much to the beauty a fair girl, as a clear, bright, healthy mplexioo, and to secure this pure :>od is l'idispensable. So many of e so-called blood-purifiers sold to prove a rough, pimply, muddy skin, ly drive the scrofulous humors fromx e surface to some internal vital or n, and disease and death is the in itable result. On the contrary, Dr. erce's Golden M:edical Discovery -ikes directly at the root of the evil, driving the impurities entirely out the system, and with a fresh stream pure blood flowing through the bu te softet and fair . VERY QEUEER. o The Georgia Legislature Refuses to Accept the Confederate Home Built by l'opular Subscription. I -- ATLANTA, August 2G.-The House of' P Representatives to-day refused, by a c vote of 94 to 62 to accept for the State , the Confederate Veterans Horiie, erec r ted by ropular subscription in the t movement inaugurated by the late e Henry W. Grady. . The principal opposition toacceptauce came from the Farmers' Alliance. In e the State Convention of that Order L- here last week a resolution ag.tinst the d acceptance of the Home was adopted, and the Alliance members of the House almost to a man opposed its acceptance. There is great indignation on the part . of the peoplegenerally. b The Confederate veterans have called r. a mass meeting of citizens for to-mjor e row night to get an expression of opin s ion. Similar indignation is expressed t in all parts of the State. The Home y cost something more than $50,0,00, and s subscriptions were received frouf all r parts of Georgia and from G. orgraus and other Southerners both in the South a:,d in New York. s Flags of the Confederacy. e [Fort Worth Gazette.] I As the days go by even the meniory t of noted events grows dim, and in the I flight of years less than half a century is time sufficient to render extremely s uncertain a knowledge of things that e were deemed of minor importance. s That this is true is demonstrated by e the inability of many men, even Con I federate soldiers, to describe accurately the flag rnder which they fought. A friend of the Gazette, having seen a publishedl statement to the eflect th: t there was uncertainty as to the flag, has kindly sent, with a copy of an au tograph letter of Jefferson Davis, two models of the flags. The one adopted by the Confederate Congress as the na tional flag, March 5, 1861, had a square field of blue extending through the up per red stripe and the white stripe. In this there was a circle of white stars, as many as the States of the Confeder acy. The third (bottom) stripe was of red and ran the full length of the flag. The model sent by Mr. Davis and made by his wife differs from this in that there are thirteen stars, equally distrib uted over the blue field instead of form ing a circle. The second is what is known as the "Confederate Congress battle flag." It is a plain red flag, wit b blue stripes ex tending from corner to corner. These cross each other in the centre, one with seven and -the other with six stars. Mr. I avs's letter reads as follows: "BEAUVOIR, Miss., .June 27, 1888. "Mrs. S. Lee Kennedy, Hillsborough: t "The flag on the right was the one first adopted by the Confederacy. It wvas subsequently changed, leaving out the bars, and the union became, as I remember, like the battle flag which you find on the lef t. Respectfully and truly yours, JEFFERSON DA VIS." C Men That Jump at conclusions, are generally "off their base." Because there are numberless patent medicines of questionable value, it doesn't follow that all are worthless. Don't class Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy with the usual run of such remedies. It is way above and beyond them ! It is doing what others fail to do ! It is curing the worst cases of Chronic Nasal C Catarrh. If you doubt it, try it. If I you make a thorough trial, you'll be cured. $500 forfeit for an incurable N case.

GREENVILLE, August 26.-Deputy t Sheriff Gilreath arrived here to-night ~ from the mountains with Babe Dur ham, C. A. Gasnell and G. Sherman Bridgeman. The three men are ac cused by the cor, aer's jury of having been implicated in a bloody tragedy at Mountain Hill Church on Sunday, where two men were killed and three wounded. The witnesses before the coroner's jury would not give much L satisfaction but it was shown that F fifteen or twenty men were provided - with pistols and used'them. Gasnell and Bridgemnan are deacons of the church at which the shooting took place and they had pistols and fired them.

Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria 5 -. The Liver 'When out of order, involves every organ of the body. Remedies for some other derange ment are frequently taken without the least effect, because it is the liver which is the real source of the trouble, and until that is set right there can be no health, strength, or comfort in any part of the system. Mercury, in some form, is a common specific for a slug. gish i-ver; but a far safer and mere effective medicine is Ayer's Pills. For loss of appetite, bilious troubles, consti pation, indigestion, and sick headache, these Pills are unsurpassed. "For a long time I was a sufferer from stomach, liver, and kidney troubles, expe riencing much difficulty in digestion, with severe pains in the lumbar region and other parts of the body. Having tried a variety of remedies, including warm baths, with only temporary relief, about three months ago I began the use of Ayer's Pills, and my health is so much improved that I gladly testify to the superior merits of this medicine."
