Why Was It that Ayer'* Nnr-'i\p.irtlla, out of the great number of similar preparations manufac tured throughout the world, was the only medicine of the kind admitted at the World’s Fair, Chicago? And why was It that, In spite of Hie united efforts of the manufacturers of other preparallont, the decision of the World's Fair Directors was not reversed? BECAUSE Aeeordlng to Bulb is—“Artlolea that are In any way dangerous or oUenalre, also patent madictnee, nostrums, and empirical prepara tions, whose ingredients are eon' oealed, will not be admitted to the Kxpotltlon," aud, therefore— Bream** Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is not a patent medicine, not a nostrum, and not a secret preparation. Bream** Its proprietors had nothing to conceal when queMtioued as to the for- mtda from which It Is compounded. Bream** it Is all that It is claimed to be —a Compound Conceptratpd extract of Sarsaparilla, and in every sense, worthy the Indorsement of this most Important committee, called together for passing upon the manufactured products of the entire world.

Mr. Norment’a Florence •• Write-Up", canvass! Then decide whether Mr. J. E. Norment’s brilliant or y oi » WHn t to see the great- article on Florence appeared in *how on earth Two per- the Sews and Courier on Thurs- formances ilaily—afternoon at 2, day of last week. It has been open one hour common'e I upon generally in earl »« r -. Special excursion rates terms of the highest praise, and | on lines of travel, certainly does the distinguished 1 write!' much credit. Among other things, Mr. Norment said: “Florence is peculiarly a rail road town, possessing the great est possible advantages in this respect. The magnificent At lautic Coast Lino seems to have Southern headquarters here, thirty trains arriving daily at this great central railroad point. Of these fourteen are passenger trains and sixteen are freight, and very frequently extra pas senger and freight trains have to be put on to accommodate the rush of travel and freight. The unequalled run made from Jack sonville to New York by the Florida special on the Coast Line last season, passed through Florence on its whirling flight. It has happened that I have rid deu on many railroads, among them being the Montreal Ex press, via the New York Central ami Hudson Itiver Hoad, on the Pennsylvania Railroad also, and several other famous flyers. In every respect, speed, equipment and general excellence, I have never seen a road that surpass ed the magnificent management and superb equipment of the Atlantic Coast Line. Another thing that has always impress ed me very much is the charac ter, capacity and efficiency of railroad officials. As a rule, and I have seen them at all times and under all circumstan ces. they attend to their busi ness better than any set of men I have ever come in contact with. 1 have seen conductors at all hours of the day and night. I have seen them sick and wor ried. 1 have seen them plao d under a variety of the most try ing circumstances, but I have yet to see where a single one was not courteous, firm and right in the discharge of his du ties always and under all cir cumstances. Their duties are exacting and resp >nsible, and they have my unbounded ad miration for the admirable and faithful discharge of their du ties. And so it is with the en gineers. If one does not think it takes a cool, brave head, a steady, unflinching nerve to hold the steel reins on the iron horse, as it rears and rushes through the darkness, let him ride on an engine on any dark night. Let him see the life-like movements of the engine, after feeding it on flame and fire, when its hot breath of smoke and stream is hissing and burn ing. tne throttle is drawn out by the hand that never falters and away it speeds wildly through the darknass. An en gine and its master alike have iny greatest respect and adtnir ation, and the South Carolina contingent of railroad men are the peers of any in the world to day,” "The Rumors of War". [Columbia Register, Oct. 17.] Considerable excitement was caused in the city yesterday af ternoon by a report that" the Mayor of Darlington had been murdered by a State Constable. This report spread rapidly and many thought that another Dar lington war would follow. The telephone in the lieyister office rang nearly every five minutes, but no definite information couiil either be given or receiv- ed. A reporter was told on the streets 'hat trouble was brew ing in Darlington, and that the Governor had bein called upon to have the militia in readiness at any moment. This, how- e v e r, was entirely without foundation, and was started by the idle rumors that were afloat. The Reg inter telegraphed to Darlington for particulars and received the special printed in this column, telling of the sad | death of Mr. McCullough, who is well known throughout the entire State. As soon as this information was received in the city, the sensational rumors which h;»d been afloat died out as quickly as they had started.
