iZk/'* J 4+ Cal. IIa#on*a I H#tnrn, [Aadcnon IntelHimKfr. | On Friday nrraing. lt»th in stant. the people of our city are promised a rare treat in the lec ture of Mr. Jus. T. Bacon, his subject being “An Old Man’s Kranky Kaleidoscope.” Mr. Bacon, all nis life, has been the exponent of the best, the purest, and the highest things in our religious, social and political lives. During all the years of his long connection with the newspaper press of this State, his pen has ever been used on the side of that which was good and right. And now that he has gone upon the lec ture platform his words will not be an exception to the rule which has guided his life. We, who have known him so long and so well, will be bondsmen for the statement that the peo ple of this cultured community will be charmed with his lec ture. He is possessed of rare wit and humor, and true pathos. He will take hip hearers back to “the brave days of old.” and re call to those whc can remember it, “the tender grace ot a day that is dead.” Let no young man make the mistake of thinking that this is a poky, stickey, dry lecture on some abstruse and dull subject, and for that reason refrain from taking his sweetheart there. It is a lecture full of rollicking, frollicking fun, and the girl who misses it Because she “was not asked” will hold her young man to a strict accountability for her disappointment, when she bears how much genuine enjoyment those had who did attend. Mr Bacon is, withal, a Past Master of the art of music. He is a highly accomplished pianist. It i* F«Im. [Charleston Evening Poet.] The opinion expressed by the governor that the best people of this city are satisfied with the .metropolitan police system is simply a slanderous and un founded fabrication. With a few exceptions the metropolitan police system is 'heartily despised by the repre sentative people of Charleston, Tillmanites and a few scatter ing others excepted. What Governor Evans says is said for effect in other parts of the state It is out of the whole cloth. The governor’s informant either in tentionally deceived him or else he was an ignoramus. The people of Charleston sub mit to the metropolitan police system because they have found no way to help themselves. They bear it uncomplainingly, as they have borne other infa mous outrages, but it is a false hood that they approve of a sys tem which is an ever present humiliation, insult and menace. Governor Evans is respectful ly informed that his miserable tyranny and injustice has forc ed about a thousand white men into the republican party, and further, that there are thousands of others who contemplate the same step because it has appear ed to them the only hope of re lief from base and cruel persecu tion. - V . imIiiiwsw m Not Our Qeorr* —— I Pythian^; There are so«^* ur,ial -l fait TreekV**^ ne P 60 ? 1 ® fooli ® h enougn to be under the impres sion that the McKee, Adjutant General of the Uniform Rank on the staff of Major General Carnahal, is the only and in imitable George H. McKee of Darlington, 8. C. Such an im pression is erroneous. Adju tant General McKee is a Wil liam, and he ranks a Colonel, while our McKee is a George, and is only a Major. Another difference is, that Adjutant Me Kee gets $2,500 a year for wear ing his uniform, while our George gets nothing for his be hef and devotion to the Uniform Rank. We have no doubt the McKee who is filling the ofiice of Adjutant General is a good man and a fine officer, but we know that if George was there it would be filled by a better one. A Compliment to ex-Gov. Scott. [The State.] We hope that ,ex-Governor R. K. Scott, during bis visit to this city, will not fail to call on Gov ernor Evans and thank him, as the local representative of ex Governor Tillman, for the com pliment paid him by the latter at the time of the “Darlington war”, when he looked up and used all of Mr. Scott’s once abused Klu-Klux laws/ seizing trains, taking control of rail ways, declaring “insurrections’ and putting guards and official press censors in telegraph offi ces. So practical a compliment —imitation being “the sincerest form of flattery”—should not pass unacknowledged by ex- Governor Scott.

Hammond, widow of the late Governor J. H. Hammond, of South Carolina, died at the home of her son, Major Harry Hammond, on Beach Island, early this morn ing. She was a daughter of Christopher Fitzsimons, and was born in Charleston in 1811. Her last illness was brief, being caused by exposure in attend ing services at the Episcopal Church in Augusta last Satur day. Vacincy Filled. [Pythian Journal. 1 Just as we go to press Grand Chancellor Wilson writes that he has appointed P. G. C. Henry T. Thompson, of Darlington, S. C., on the Committee on Laws and Supervision, to fill the va cancy occasioned by the death of brother A. 8. Farrow. The appointment is an admirable one. This domain holds no truer or better posted knight than our Darlington brother. An Indian Resurrected. [Oheraw Reporter.] A few days ago while an old man wat plowing in a field near the Brewer gold mine, he came across a soft place in the ground and upon examination of the place be found it to be an In dian grave. In the grave was found, besides the skeleton, some pottery, beads and a pipe. The Discover Saved Hi* Life. Mr. G. Gaillouette, Druggist, Beaversville, 111., says: ‘“R) Dr King’s New Discovery I owe my life. Was taken with La Grippe and tried all the physicians for miles about, but of no avail and was eiven up and told I could not live. Having Dr. King’s New Discovery in my store I sent for a bottle and began to get better, and after using three bottles was up and about again. It is worth its weight in gold We won’t keep store or house without it.” Get a free trial at Dr. J. A. Boyd’s Drug Store. Donbtless there are some sane citizens of our county who won’t believe anything until it is proven to them. If you make a statement which sounds to them a little unreasonable, they discredit the wnole ad. For the particular benefit of these people (who will prove to be the steadiest customers, when you gain their confidence) make your ads plain, logical, explicit and above all, truthful In snort, aim to convince the skeptical. Cure for Headache. As a remedy for all forms of Headache, Electric Bitters has proved to be the very best.
