It 15 now many weeks since the goo 1
S:. Valentine toid the birds to mate
and the gi::s and boys to go wooing.

him believe she is ia love with him.
But see iscnt. May and December
never mate, nor March and November.
It is against the older r? nature. We
rid people can look and linger and admit?,
but that is all. We have sailed
iown the river and encountered its
perils, its reefs and locks and shoals
and quicksands... but. strange to say,
we give no warning. Maybe it is because
we know that warning will do
no good; maybe, because misc'y loves
company; maybe, because it is the or.der
of nature, the fia; of the Almighty.
Verily the young people would mate
end marry and launch their boat and
sail down that river if they knew there
was a Scylla and Charybdis at every
bend and leviathans and maelst oms

trcsiing, suffering woman. What
.perils, what trials, what afflictions
does the maternal instinct bring upon
you! Close up by us. while I write, is
a beautiful young mother lingering ia
the gr3sp of death?dying that her
first bcrn child nay live. There is
uothing more touching, more pitiful, j
more heroic in nature. There is nothing
that a man is called upon to en- |
dure that compares with the death of
a mother in childbirth.
But there is a brighter side?a more
^p|.harmiag. comforting picture of life j
?married life, domestic life?when the j
good mother is a matron, and looks
with pride upon her childieu and
grandchildren as they come and go
lovingly befcre her. What calm serenity
hovers over her matronly face,
v, hat sweet content, what grateful
rest?rest from her labors, her pains,
her care and anxiety. Well may she
exciaim with Paul: "I have fought a
good fight: I have kept the faith; I
have finished my course. Henceforth
there is laid up for me a crown of
righteousness."
To every lad and lassie there i.s a
period of life net always thrilling or
tragical, but highly emotional and sensational.
Of course, I mean the period
of love?young love?or love's young
dream. which sometimes runs smootn
-and sometimes don't. What a luxury
it would be to look behind the curtain
and so just what love has felt and suffered
and enjoyed. Such a kaleidoscope
would have a world of eager
lookers, for the old are as fascinated
with stories of love and courtship as
the middle-aged and young. In looking
over the daily cr weekly paper we
may skip the displayed heading of war
in Servia or riots in London or cyclones
in Oregon, but any little paragraph
that has love in it arresis the
eye and demands attention. Children
go to school tos tr.dy books, but by the
time they are in their teens they begin
"to mix a little timid, cautious love
with their other studies. A sweetheart
1s a blessed thing for a boy. It
straightens him tip and washes his
face and g eases his hair and brushes

Hew I did luxriate a~>d palpitate and
concentrate toward the fust little
school girl I ever loved. She was as
pretty as a pink and as sweet as a
daisy, and one day at recess, when no.
? body was looking I caught her cn the
stairs and kissed her. She was dreadfully
frightened, but not mad. Oh. r.o;
not mad. She ran away with blushes
on her cheek, and more than once that
e\ening I saw her glance at me from
behind her book and wondering if I
would ever be so rash again.
And now. Mr. Editor, if a thousand

unwritten book. Who has not loved
who has not stolen a kiss, who has not
caught its palpitating thrill and felt
like Jacob when he lifted up his voice
and wept? Ch. Rachel, beautiful and
well favored, no wonder that Jacob
watered thy sheep and then kissed thee,
for there was no one to molest or make
tbee afraid. That memorable kiss is
t.ojv four thousand years old, and haa
"passed into history as classic and pure,
"but I have had them, and so have you,
dear reader. Just as sweet and soul-inSDirinp.
and never said anything about
It to anybody. Ours was a mixed school,
and every Friday the larger boys and
girls had to stand up In line and spell
and define. My sweetheart stood bead
most generally, and so I was stimulated
to get next to her, and I did, and
my right hand slyly found her left,
and we both were happy. But time and
circumstances separated us. and we
both found new loves?abe married
another feller and was content, and so
-did I, but neither of us have forgotten
the stolen kiss or that tender childish
love that made our school days happy.
But love becomes more earnest alter
* awhile?more intense, more frantic?
the young man means business and so
does the maiden. Like the turtle-doves

and it Is right. God said, "It is not
good for man to be alone: I will make
a helpmate for him." And so he made
Eve to help meet the expenses, and
that is what a wife ought to do now,
but a good many of them don't. They
help make them, but they don't help
meet them, and that is why the young
men have almost quit marrying. The
rich girls won't have them, and the
poor girls are trying to keep up with
th^ rich, and so the turtle-doves mate
mere slowly and marry with more
alacrity then they do now. It is not
vanity to say that I could have married
half a dozen nice girls, and my wire
could have had choice of a dozen clever,
prosperous youths as likely 8 3 myself.
Cupid just rocsted around those woods
and shot his arrows right and left.
Sometimes lie shoots a young man and
then waits days and weeks before he
shoots the girl he is after. This keeps

But he was clever to me, for as near
as I can judge he let fly both arrows
at once and plug??d my girl and me
simultaneously, and with a center shot.
My wife denies this, but I have told it
eo often I believe it. There was no skir
mishing on my part. I never did shoot
with a scattering gun. Marrying was
cheap in those days. My recollection is
that it cost me only about $-13?twentyfive
for elofhes, ten for a ring and ten
more to the preacher. It didn't cost
anybody else anything to speak of. for
there were no weddinfg presents. That
tomfoolery wasn't invented. We didn't
go to Niagara or anywhere right away,
but we went to work. A month or so
later we did take a little trip to Tallulah
Falls and look at tho water tumble
over the rocks, but that didn't t ost

they were long afterwards cut up and
cut down for the children, and there
are some precious fragments hid
away in the old trunk now. The old
trunk and of common size, was sufficient
then for a traveling wardrobe for i
a lady of the land. My father and
mother and two children made a journey
by sea to Boston with one trunk
and a valise, and came back to Georgia
by land, in a carriage, but not leng

with two trunks four times as large,
and ribbed with iron, and fastened with
three massive locks, and said she was
not happy. Oh my country! That girl
was too much in love with her clothes
to love a man. and nobody but a fortuue-hunter
would dare to marry her.

Unionism App-'ars.
Spartanburg, Special.?The natter
of labor unions seems to be one that
will confront the people of this city
in the building line in the immediate
future. There has been organized
liprp a hranch of a national or
ganization of bricklayers ana masens.
The membership of the local organization
numbers about CO, the
greater being colored workmen. On
July 1st they gave notice that on and
after that date work hours would be
changed from ten to nine hours a
clay, and that JO cents per hour would
be required, as usual, ror ordinary
c rkmcn, and prices of skilled laborers
would range in proportion, so
much per hour. The strike of the
union men on the new Baptist church
bt ilding yesterday was not clue t the
contractors failing to grant the roc
action of a day's work, but to the
| fact that several non-union men were
allowed to work along with them. To
day the non-union men worked on thl <
i uilding. Just what will terminate
from the union of the masons and
bricklayers, remains to be seen.
New Corporutions.
A company has been organized in
Chester for the purpose of manufacturing
the "Neely Cotton Compress
Patent." This device was invented by
Mr. S. M. Ncely of Smith's Turnout
and is evidently regarded as a good
seller, for the company is to be capii
talized at $100,000. The corporators
are S. M. Neely, Col. T. J. Cunnlng;
ham and Major J. Hardiir Marion.
The company is to nave neauquarters
at Chester, and as stated in the
application for the commission, will
manufacture these compresses and
will compress cotton for shipment.
Mr. Neely is quite an inventive

which was a success.

She went in bathing with her two sisters
at "Nettles' cove," and it is supposed
that she stepped off into a deep

an our and a half elapsed after the
fatal accident \had occurred before
the body was recovered. Dr. Dunn did
all in his power to resuscitate the unfortunate
young girl, but all efforts
were in vain. The factory pond has
been used for bathing and swimming
by generations of Camden's residents
and this is the first time a fatal ac- |
cident like this has taken place.
Palmetto Items.
Gaffney is to have a third cotton !
mill to be located north of town on
I
the Southern railroad, near the
overhead bridge, just out of town. It
will be known as the Louise mill. Mr. j
E. R. Cash is the promoter who de- j
serves the credit for this new enterprise.
It is an assured thing. Mr. J. '
C. Jefferies made application several
days ago for a charter for it The corporators
are Messrs. E. R. Cash, J C
Jefferlee, F. G. Stacy, H. D. Wheat i
J. G. Wardlaw, G. P. Hamrick, W. l! 1
Scttlemyer of Gaffney, C. D. Elkin and
O. S. Falls of Kings Mountain, and D.
A. Tompkins of Charlotte. The mill
Is to be capitalized at $200,000 and
will be about the size of the Lime
stone mill.
Mr. James Wilson, one. of Anderson's
oldest residents' and a most
respected citizen, died at his home
near the city limits late Wednesday
night. Mr. Wilson was in his 70th
year and had lived here all his life.
He entered the Confederate service
with the first volunteers at the outbreak
pf the war and at the reorganisation
became a member of the Rutledge
Mounted Rifles. No more faithful
and no bhaver soldier served in
the Confederacy than Mr. Wilson.
Since the war he has been a quiet, unobtrusive
citizen, and has enjoyed the
I confidence and esteem of all who
knew him.
The new battery of kilns at the lime
works is completed. These kilns are
the best in the south, being made after
Sharp's patent. The capacity of
these kilns is 325 barriels per Jay.
They burn either coal or wood and
are most economical in the use of
fuel.
Drowned at Pablo Beach.
Jacksonville, Fla., Special.?Fred
Frey, a traveling salesman for Muater
Bros., Jewelers, of New York, was
drowned in the surf at Pablo Beach,
Sunday afternoon, at 5 o'clock. The
body was found and brought out in 25
minutes, but, though two physicians,
who were on hand at the time, used
every effort at resuscitation, their efforts
failed. A telgram was sent to the
parents of the deceased in New York.
?
SOUTH CAROLINA CROPS.
Conditions More Favorable During
the Past Week.
The week ending 8 a. m., Monday,
June 29. 1903, had a mean temperature
of 76 degrees which is about 4 degrees
below norma]. The nights continue too
cool for the favorable development of
cotton. There was more than the
usual amount of cloudiness, and there
Is an indicated need of more sunshine
for corn, cotton and melons. There
were local high winds accompanying
thundersoms that caused slight damage
over limited areas.
The Western half of the State had
beneficial rains on the 22nd and 26th,
the latter heavy enough to stop cultivation
for the remainder of the week,
but it was needed to soften crusted
lands that had become too hard to
plow. The central and northeastern
counties had rain nearly every day,
with some excessive rains that washed
lands and rendered all but hillsides too
wet to cultivate. In Barnwell, Bamhortr
HrQr? nrftKnrtr P.orVfilnv Wi'lliamc
WiiuinL.;UiD, Tl 4.l?iUburg,
Sumter, Clarendon, Florence,
Darlington, Marion and Marlboro, aud
parts of adjoining counties, crops are
suffering from lack of work and excess
of moisture. The immediate coast
counties had moderate and beneficial
rains. The average rainfall for the
State was nearly 2 inches. Hail storms
occurred in many counties, but serious
damage by hail was reported from
Berkeley, Marlboro and Saluda counties
only.
The general condition of all crops is
better than any time this season, but
the improvement is comparatively
slight in many places, and all cultivated
field crops need dry weather to
permit cultivation, and to rid them of
grass. They also need more sunshine
to give them a healthier color, and
greater warmth to stimulate a more
rapid growth.
The corn crop is fairly promising,
except in a few central counties where
lack of cultivation and an excess of
mrvictnro hna atvan it n sieklv color
and a stunted growth. Early corn is
being laid by in the eastern and central
counties, with many fields in a
grassy condition. It is tasseling. Bottom
land corn has not recovered from
the effects of the recent floods and is
poor.
There is a general improvement in
cotton over last week both in color and
growth, but the plants continue small
and in places still lack a healthy color,
while stands are broken and irregular.
Lice are less prevalent than
last week. First blooms are reported,
since the 19tlj from the eastern and
central parts of the State, but blooming
is general. Last year cotton was in
full bloom by the flrBt of July. The
work of cleaning fields has made rapid
progress but many fields are still
grassy, and some have not been chopped
to stands. Sea-island cotton is
small, but vigorous and healthy.
Tobacco curing is in progress. The
tobacco crop has improved recently,
and now ranges f:om fair to exceedingly
fine. Rice is doing well. Canteloupe
shipments have begun. Hay meaaows,
sweet potatoes and cane look fine. The
fruit prospects are less promising, especially
for apples and grapes. Gardens
are fine.

- AN
OFFICIAL KILLED ~
__
State Comptroller of Texas Shot By a
Crazy Man
WHO THEN COMMITTED SUICIDE ,
Frenzied by His Supposed Wrongs,
W. G. Hill, a Former Employe of
the Official Kills State Comptroller
Love.
Austin, Tex., Special.?Frenzied by
supposed wrongs, W. G. Hill, an exattache
of the State Comptroller's office,
Tuesday morning a few minutes
past 10 o'clock, entered the private office
of State Comptroller Love and
killed him by means of two well-di- [
rected bullets from a large calibre revolver.
As Hill turned to floe, he was
intercepted by Chief Clerk Stevens, of
the Department, who engaged him in
a scuffle, during which his revolver
was accidentally exploded. The bullet
entered Hill's abdomen, causing a
wound from which he died at 3 o'clock
in the afternoon, three hours after the
death of the man whose life he sought.
Thus, in brief, as told, is the story of
the tragedy, the first assassination ever
chronicled in the Texas capital. The
shooting has thrown the town and
State in a commotion, but the death of
the assassin, as well as his victim, has
closed the story in one chapter.
As to what caused the shooting none
can explain, other than that it was the
? mnHmnn Hill had been an em
ploye of the Comptroller's office for
tea years preceding Love's term of office.
He was let out by Mr. Love when
the latter took charge, and it is presumed
that this fact preyed upon his
mind until he went insane. Tuesday
morning he went to the capitol, entered
Mr. Love's private office, spoke,
t^ him cheerfully, shook hands, and,
handing him a letter to read, sat down
at the invitation of the Comptroller.
No sooner had Mr. Love begun to read
the letter than Hill sprang to hi3 feet
and fired two shots into the body of
Mr. Love, one taking effect just above
the other Immediately below the heart
Mr. Love screamed, dropped the letter
and sank to the floor.
Hill, seeing that his purpose had been
accomplished, turned to make for the
door. He was intercepted by Chief
Cierk Stevens, who grappled with him
and was wrestling with him when
Hill's pistol was accidentally discharged,
the bullet entering Hill's abdomen.
He fell a dead weight in Stevens' arms,
and was lowered gently to the floor,
where he lay until taken to the hospital.
He died at 3 o'clock.
Love was given all immediate attention
possible, but died within an hour
after the shooting.
The letter that Hill gave ro u,ove
reads as follows:
"Austin, Texas, , 1903.
"Col. R. M. Love. State Comptroller:
"Dear Sir: Public office is a public
trust. Public officers are created for
the service of the people and not for
the aggrandizement of a few individuals.
The practice of bartering Department
clerkships for private gain is a
disgrace to the public service, and in
this nefarious traffic you are a recordbreaker.
You have robbed the State
employes and your incompetent administration
has prompted others to rob
the State. The man who, claiming to
be a Christian, deprives others of employment
without cause, is a base hyp
ccrite and a tyrant, me greatest mmu
that ever gave its wisdom to the
world; the mind, of all others, most
capable of 'umpiring the mutiny between
right and wrong,' said, 'You
take my life when you do take from me
the means by which I live.' If that
be true, you are a murderer of the
deepest crime. Although I cannot help
myself, before laying life's burdens
down, I shall strike a blow?feeble
though it be?for the good of my deserving
fellowmen.
"For the right against the wrong,
"For the weak against the strong.
"Yours truly,
(Signed) "W. G. HILL."
Mr. Hill was a quiet and gentlemanly
person and was never known to
have been addicted to any bad habits.
At the time of the shooting he was
holding a good position here in therlty,
so that dire want could not have mstigated
the frenzy that prompted ths
shooting. It is the opinion of all that
it was the act of an insane man. Im
mediately after the shooting and while
Hill was still lying in the corridor, a
bottle of laudanum was taken from hia
pocket, and, reaching for it, he said:
"Let me take that and die easy."
This has led many to believe that
be contemplated suicide, following his
shooting of the Comptroller. Both men
have families surviving them. Comptroller
Love's remains were shipped to
his old home in Limestone county for
interment and Hill's remains will be
buried here.
Shot By Lynchers.
Sccttsboro, Ala.. Special.?Andrew
Diggs, a negro, was taken from jail
Monday night and hanged by a mob.
The negro was arrested aunuay ior *u i
attempt to criminally assault Miss Al- I
raa, the 19-year-old daughter of Dr. B.
B. Smith. Sheriff Austin, in charge of
the jail, did all that was possible to
defend the prisoner from the mob who
fired on him. Two of the shots took
effect in the sheriff's arm and leg. The
mob secured the keys to Digg's cell
from the sheriff's daughter and quickly
secured the negro, whom they hanged
to a near-by telegraph polo.
Mistrial in Jones Case.

they did not think they could agree, I
Judge Shaw discharged them and a ;
mistrial was ordered. Bail for the five
defendants was fixed at $6,000. Up
to the present time none have been

THE 8TUDY OF CHARACTER. Y
Little Things That Tell Much to th?
Observant.
Character can be read#In a person's
carriage, It is claimed. .
Business takes long strides and ha*
a quick, nervous gait.
Stubbornness waddles, pointing determinedly
to self with every step.
Happy-go-lucky has a free and easy
walk, throwing his arms and legs
about as if hung on pivots.
Dignity is studiously erect, measuring
her steps carefully and looking
neither to the right nor left. It is exaggerated
style of the correct poise.
Independence struts, positively tipping

Your Hair
"Two years ago my hair was 7: *

Miss Minnie Hoover, Paris, M. t(
Perhaps your mother ^
