During President Roosevelt's visit
to Los Angeles, Cal., last week, John
Cxolgeez, a brother of President McKinley's
slayer, was confined in the
guard house until the president left
the citv.
WD Crum, physician and collector
of the port of Charleston, is
v -in hard luck. The treasury department
has held up his pay and he
I can receive no money nntil his ap.
point men t is confirmed by the senate.
All honor and no emoluments, it
seems.
" From all parts of the county we

conditions and the prospect at present
seems gloomy indeed. March
and April seem to have reversed
their lolesj the formei being fair
And sunny and the latter cloudy and
chilly with prevailing east winds.

The schools of Sonth Carolina are
I < achieving unpleasant notoriety.
&r ; First a teacher in Spartanburg
eounty shoots and kills a pupil;
f- then iu Anderson a pnpil shoots his
I teacher, and last week in Clarendon
one pnpil stabbed another, inflicting
a dangerous wound. And all three
affairs happened within the past
three or four months.
A short time ago ex-Senator
John L. McLaurin was made vice
president of the Mohawk Valley
Steel Co., of Georgia, which corporation,
it was stated 011 good authority,
contemplates the early erection
of an elerven million dollar plant at
r Brunswick, Ga. It was also aunonooed
that McLaurin would be
elected president of the Brunswick
,, and Birmingham railroad, which is
^ closely connected with the former
!- j l iM -V 1 <
concern. Now it conies to pass that
at the re-organization meeting gf
the Brunswick and Birmingham
railroad, which was held in New
York on Tuesday, McLaurin was
not elected president of the railroad
and he sold all his holdings in
the Mohawk Valley company, an
nouncing that he would return to
South Carolina shortly and adding
the significant words: "Perhaps I
am better fitted to farming in South
Carolina than to railroading in Wall
street."
