AN ATROCIOUS BUTCHERY.
Early on Saturday morning,
before the dawn of day, a party
of unknown men broke into the
Barnwell County jail and, forc

hands, unlocked the cells and, ]

We pause; it is impossible to
find fit words with which to
condeirtn* this atrocious butch
ery ! Where in the annals of
the crimes of modem times can
be found a deed more horrible in
its conception, more revolting
in its nature and more dreadful
in the effects it will have on our
beloved community ? We do not
think that even a parallel may
be found. Verily we may ask
is civilization retrograding ?
We shall not undertake to
condemn this crime, for it needs
no condemnation, but we depre
cate its occurrence and pray
Heaven to spare us from a repe-
titio.i of it. It is useless to show
unto the perpetrators of such
crimes why justice should be al
lowed to take its course and
why all high-handed and unlaw
ful acts of violence should be
avoided ; it is of no avail to ap
peal to them that the good name
of the State should be preserved;
nor would a clear exhibition of
the distressing results which, will
surely follow the commission of
this deed, have any efitect. We
are glad to say, however, that
we do not believe the good peo
ple of Barnwell had anything
to do with the lynching and it
is encumbent upon them, togeth
er with the law-abiding citizens
of other portions of the State, to
pat a stop to such work in the
future and thus partially erase
the blot upon the escutcheon of
our commonwealth.

As usual there were a number

A PERNICIOUS PRACTICE.
The habit our LegislatorAave
contracted of dilly-dally ingaway
the time during the first pa t of
the session, and thus necessita
ting a rush of business during
the latter part, has become a se
rious matter involving much
trouble, error and bad legisla
tion and should be stopped.
Many measures of the gravest
importance are never considered,
while others just as important
are hurried through without be
ing given the proper attention.
Take for instance, Mr. Nettles’
road bill. This bill is undoubt
edly a good one and, if passed,
would relieve us of many of the
annoyances and burdens conse
quent upon the present system
of working the roads. And what
did our worthy Legislators do
with it f They did nothing; they
did not have time, because day
after day had been wasted dur
ing the first part of the session.
There were other bills equally
as important and equally as
good as Mr. Nettles’ that never
saw the light of day. Do we
send the Ixegislators to Columbia
for this ; do we send them to do
nothing ? No; they can remain
at home and do that, without be
ing paid by the State/or it. -
Hasty legislation is the bane
of our political and social exist
ence and it is far better to have
none at all than to have legisla
tion pregnant with bad judg
ment and pernicious features.
And of such is much that is done
by the General Assembly.
And in consequence of the
great rush near the end of the
session many mistakes are made,
the responsibility for which is
put by'the members upon the poor
unhappy overworked engrossing
clerks. But this responsibility
'does not belong there and the
unerring judgment of the people
will place it upon the broad
shoulders of the Legislator, who
lives exuberantly in the luxury
The influenza is spreading all
over this country. It is a mild
type and but few die of it. In
Europe, however, it is terribly
fatal and all the countries are
more or less affected by it. In
Paris alone on Wednesday was
318 ; on Thursday 393 ; Friday
344.
On Wednesday of last week
the town of Jessup, in the south
era part of Georgia, was the
scene of a bloody race riot. The
town marshals attempted to ar
rest Bob Brewer, a notorious ne
gro desperado, who immediately
killed one of the marshals and
wounded another. The negro
and his gang then fled to a
neighboring swamp followed by
the enraged white people, and
a general melee ensued in which
three whites and three blacks
were killed and several of both
races were wounded. Brewer
has not yet been captured. The
excitement is intense but it is
thought that the worst is over.

you are mistaken in regard to what

The cost of one of these corridas
may be safely reckoned at not less
than £1,500. There are generally six
bulls killed, and these average trom
£70 to £100 each. Horses are con
tracted for, and are bought at simply
*'knacker” prices; sometimes as many
as twenty-five are done to death.
There are generally three espadas, and
these, with their cuadrillas, may be
taken, one with another, at about
£250 each. Then there is a very large
number of assistants and attendants;
a very heavy rent is paid for the plaza,
and tne government tax, or “contribu-
cion,” is also a considerable item. The
“gate” may be estimated, given a
“full house ’—and it is almost always
fairly filled—at some £2,000. I am
told that as regards the amount a

rita, a very famous espada. though
hardly more than a boy—for he is still
in bis 24th year—has already, at only
the beginning of the season, signed

When it is calculated that, at the
outside, his following will not take
more than about £70 of thia, the
amount that is left appears a very fair
salary for a man—or, to speak more
correctly, a lad—who probably had a
difficulty in attaching his signature to
his contracts.—All the Year Kound.

cts. each, has been reduced to 35 cents.
If such a book could have been bought fifty years ago for $1.50,
it would have astonished our fore-fathers. Everybody exclaims,
“Why how can a book like that be made for 35 cents?” Well,
they are not only made but are actually on sale in Darlington at
that price! This stock, which includes over a hundred varieties,

Devices for mitigating the effects of
the hot weather are endless, and most
of them useless. Here are three tried and
trustworthy maxims for hot weather
conduct, and outside of them there is
no trick or device by means of which
the dog star can oe circumvented.
These maxims are:
L Wear as light and loose clothing
as you dare.
2. Take plenty of exercise, but in a
calm way.
3. Drink no alcoholic or efferves
cent beverages.
In exercising, the great point is not
to be afraid of the heat; but not, at
the same lime, to choose violent diver
sions. The youth or maiden who is
in the habit of playing baseball or
lawn tennis and quite accustomed to
the exercise may play it on a hot day
m safely as ever, and people who are
in the habit of walking a fair amount
have nothing to fear, hut everything
to gain from keeping up their custom
ary exercises in summer. But excep
tional physical tests should certainly
be avoided under a burning sun. And
absolute inaction is as ted in hot
weather ns at any other time.—Bos
