A O pie is that Satan finds cm-' J* * B ploy meat for all "idle bauds. rSfI))w On close investigation, howtver, Cupid would be found to be an sven more ubiquitous taskmaster than ?is s?tanlf mnipsfv. Occasionally the :wo form a close partnership, and then die result is tragic, but as a rule the ittlc god of lore works on ordinary, v "ominonplaee lines. His tasks are easy, :oo, as, for instance, in this case, when lis einnloyes simply had to press the button and be did the rest. The westbound express on the Cantdiun Pacific was side-tracked at Banff waiting for the eastbound train. lAttiruer Tracy, a kodak enthusiast 11 the first stages of the disease, had >botographed every attractive bit from Montreal to Banff. His rolls of film would have made a fairly complete >anor.ama of this most picturesque of til transcontinental lines, with occasional lapses, of course, when night tad interfered with his labors. From die hick platform, from the steps of lis own car. and from the observation tmoker, he had "shot" the flying landicape. From early dawn until the last .'aint light of the lingering northern twilight had faded away he had laxned At Banff he was standing on the last ilatform of the train, and had jotted lowu bis photographic memoranda of mow-crowned Inglismaldie, of Pee hee's dominating cone, with a glimpse >f the beautiful hotel uestling on the Boumainside. He was feeling well leased with his work, for these last 'iitt'o wni?o omopK anrl thov AAlllfl ?e successfully developed would doubtless prove a scource of pride to hlni. A shrill whistle, an oncoming roar, tnd ti e express thuudered pass on the nain track. As It slowed up at the itation Tracy's train moved on. but jot before he had indelibly fixed on .he film of his kodak a glimpse of the >ack platform of the passing train. 9e raised his head and saw. vaguely, t girl bending over a kodak focused ipparently, on him, but before she *>oko<) up his car had rounded a curve tnd she was lost to view. Tracy returned to New York after ?everal weeks, and one of his first lets was to develop his "views". With the luck of the ordinary araatuer, a ^?ew of them were good, but most of them were bad. Hoary old Sir Donald aad diminished his crest into the eye >f the kodak to such an extent that he was hardly distinguishable from the low-lying hills that border Lake Superior. while glaciers, lakes and rivers, redp< ods and farm lands, were hopelessly confused. Only one view was iharp and clear. Framed by the doorway of a sleeper, a young girl looked itraight from the plate into Tracy's ?yes. "By Jove!" he exclaimed, "what a beauty! She must be the Banff girl!" The Banff girl she was, and the RanfT rirl cho romnincwl fnr Hnrc weeks and even months. Tracy printed her off and she was charming: !n a blue print she was beautiful, and blue prints are crucial tests of beauty; >n carbon paper she was exquisite, md wtb each experimental printing her image penetrated deeper and ieeper into Tracy's heart. At last he enlarged her; or. not quite at last, for the crowning point of his folly was to frame her in silver and install her on his dressing table as mistress of his heart and possessions. There she stood for several weeks, returning his glances?not in kind, perhaps, but in number?and known to him only by the prosfic name of tfca "Banff girl." Then, one evening, she was christened, and it was in this wise: To / It CArmAim mi n tin a 'iVo ai?'o ctv rv orjuiuui iau u|i iv/ iiaij o rooas to communicate some personal information; wandering idly about the room, lie saw the photograph, picked it up, glanced at it carelessly, then put it down. "Good photograph," he sstid, "amateur, of course. I didn't know you knew Edith so well. She's 9. jolly girl, isn't she?" Ed'<th! And here was a man who knew her! But what a fool he would look to ask the name of a girl whose photograph was enshrined iu the pri> vacy of his dressing table! In a moment more Seymour was gone. Tracy felt a mad impulse to rush after him and ask who, what, and where "Edith" was. but pride held him back, and the next day Seymour sailed for Egypt. By this time Edith's photographic presentment filled Lattimer Tracy's life, and the entire world was merely a dense veil hiding her from him. He went to every dance and dinner, he ver haunted teas, hoping that he might find her. Once he was Invited to a dinner to meet "My cousin. Miss . Edith Bainbridge, of Victoria." His I heart beat with an overwhelmng joy J as lie read the words. At last she would be his! He entirely ignored all intermediate steps of acquaintance, intimacy, proposal and acceptance. He gazed at his photograph with rapt adoration. "Mine, mine, mine!" he cried, and the sweet eyes smiled back at him from under the wind-swept hair. When he stood before his hostess | that night his face was white and his voice hoarse with emotion. ! "Edith, Miss Bainbridge, Mr. Tracy!" | The words were spoken and Tracy turned to meet her. Alas! this Edith was not his Edith, hut only an elderly Scotch spinster. Tracy never knew how he lived through that evening, but when he returned to his room and his Edith he was more hopelessly her slave than ever. "I will And you some time." he cried, passionately, "in spite of the world and fate!" The world., and fate, be it understood, were represented by his hostess and her innocent cousin. The winter drew to a close, and Tracy was growing hopeless. Should he start out in quest of her, he asked himself. But what a hopeless quest! Should he follow Seymour and ask, as incidentally as possible, his Edith's name? But to brand himself an idiot in Seymour's eyes was distaseful in the extreme. It was Saturday, and Tracy was on his way to an afternoon reception. Xo hope of finding Edith led him thither. but one of his friends had asked him to help entertain her guests. He waited for a moment in the antechara* ber, realizing from the voices that only girls were in the adjoining room, Then he heard a name that made his heart stand still. "Don't tell me. Edith Seymour, that you have worn his picture ever since." "Yes, I have. You can call it silly if you like, but of all the kodaks thai I took from Yokohama to Montreal, his was the only one that came out. Of course, there was a fate in that. Could any one doubt it? It's in this very locket now. and I'll wear it until I meet him. I know I will some time, I'm absolutely positive of that." "How romantic!" "But show it to us." "I wonder if you will ever see him." "I'll wager you don't." "What will you say to him?" "No, I won't. Of course, I will," Miss Seymour answered to all these exclamations. "And I'll say?" "Oh, how do you do, Mr. Tracy? I didn't hear you come in," exclaimed the hostess. "It's awfully good of you to come so early. ou know every one here, don't you? Oh, no?Miss Seymour, I want you to know Mr. Tracy: She's Jack Seymour's cousin from Montreal, you know. You've heard him speak of his cousin Edith a thousand times, haven't you?" The words flowed on in a melodious murmur. Tracy heard none of them. Her hand was in his and?well, of course, Cupid was on hand to complete the task he had commenced on the sidetrack at Banff". The Two-Sided Speaker. Speaker Cannon is one of those gifted Individuals who can seem to storm through his life roughshod and never break an eggshell. He talks uncouth, agricultural English, punctuated with tobacco juice and explosive profanity. The great American people tramples on itself with the desire to grasp him by the buttonhole as soon as his speech is over. His campaign clothe* never flt him, and one leg of his trousers is always pulled up enough to show that he wears white yarn socks. Yet scandalous things are told of Uncle Joe; they say in Washington, for instance, that no man's dress coat bangs more smoothly over the shoulders; that no man's patent leather shoes glisten more splendidly or are tied with a more graceful silken bow. Go tell one of the Speaker's constituents that; the constituent will laugh. He will say: "Now, don't you go worrying your- , self about Joe. He don't wear them fine things because li? likes to. It's Just to get somethin' or other outer the people he's mixin' with. Joe's Just as plalu and straight as you an' I. I feel this way about Joe: He ain't got much of a way of sayin' things, an' he don't put thrills up and down your back. But he's got sense. An' if a ! thing is good enough for him, it's good J enough for me."?Everybody's Maga- ( zine. i The Japaneaa Baby. The Japanese baby's head is shaved in a curious fashion, and never, under any circumstance, does the mother or baby wear a hat or bonnet. Nor does he wear shoes, even in the coldest 1 weather, but his shaven head and his < pink toes peep out from the mother's j ?.wl I. ~ gaiuieiiis, nuu ue nut'd strapped on tightly, happy, chubby, smiling always and dressed, when he is allowed to get out of his binding garments, in the most dainty of kiminos, all embroidered and painted and decorated with the designs which are supposed to typify the final trade or occupation of the infant. Ballooning Accidents. If statistics can be considered convincing, it may be interesting to state what I was tokl at the Paris Aero Club last August, that is, that after more than a thousand ascents, with each , balloon carrying on an average two. ' and very often three, passengers, the worst accident 011 record in the club * was a broken loot.

Martin, the sixth man alleged to bare been implicated in the Eutaw ille lynching, but who was not discovered by the detectives and special deputies at the time the other five men were taken to Columbia. Lawyers E. J. Dennie and R. W. Haynes were there to confer with the men under arrest. The lawyers will not discuss their plans, hat It is thought that they will apply for bail. Application for habeas corpus or a demand for a preliminary hearing are also open to them. This was a brutal murder of Kit Bookard, without even a semblance of sentimental Justification and Governor Heyward has been working several months on the case with Pinkerton men. There has been heavy expense during the several months the Pinkerton men have been working, but the Governor met this out of his own funds, the contingent fund having been exhausted. This is the first time a Governor of this State has employed Pinkertoa man to run down lynchers, and it is expected to have a salutary e:ect. Governor Heyward is determined that lynchlngB in this State shall cease, and this will net be the last case In which he will employ detectives to ferret out evidence. At a meeting of the State board of health it was decided to take up the matter of recommending to the Legislature the turning over to the Federal Government of the coast quarantine service of the State. The president of the board. Dr. T. Grange Simons, will confer with Surgeon General. Wanan of the marine hospital service, and after consulting those in charge of the stations at Georgetown, Charleston, Beaufort and Port Royal, will report back to the meeting of the board to oe held on the 8th of December, when the board's annual report to the Legislature will be formulated. The December meeting will also hear from Secretary Evans as to the report of vital statistics from Columbia, which the city board has for many months been endeavoring to get from the city physicians. The Governor last week issued a reward of $200 for the capture of Sam Brown, the negro who killed Mr. Allen P. Hettington. at Meggets, in August. This was a particularly brutal murder and It aroused much feeling in that section of the State at the time. For a time it was thought Brown had been lynched, but he seems to have escaped the mob that was after him. A reward of $150 was also offered for Jim Thompson, who killed Isaiah Jeter in York county a few days ago. Thd Governor has appointed two special Judges In the persons of J. Y. Culbreath and J. P. Carvey, the former to preside over a two weeks' special term, beginning in Pickens on the 24th of October, and the other to hold a special two weeks' term, beginning in Abbeville on the 7th of next month. The Secretary of State issued two elymosenary chartens Friday?one to the Morris Industrial (colored) Schoolof Buffalo, and the other to the Mt. Lebanon View Presbyterian Church at Campbollo.

Sweat with a piece of an ax handle while Sweat was advancing on him with a drawn knife. Sweat's skull was fractured and he died Tuesday evening Seat made no effort to escape and is now in the guard house here. * Gllbreath Case Dismissed. Spartanburg, Special.?The case sgainst Mayor Jas. Gilreath of Greers, charged with assault and battery wtih intent to kill, was scheduled for investigation in Magistrate Kirby's court it was discovered, however, that the illeged assault occurred in Greenville county, the boundary line running near Sreers. Magistrate Kirby had no jurisdiction in the matter. The case was dismissed. In all probability a warrant will be secured from a Greenville county magistrate, and the case will come up for investigation in that county if It is pushed. Shot His Wife and Himself. Mobile. Ala., Special.?Wednesday ifternoon as a result of a quarrel Charles Harding shot his wife three ;imes and then turned the pistol on limself, the bullet penetrating the >ase of the brain. In conveying Hardng to the city hospital the ambulance ,vas struck by a trolley car and wreckid, the driver being thrown out and >everely bruised. Harding and his wife , ire fatally wounded. A TRAGEDY IN COLUMBIA Scene of the Awful Deed Was the Old Richmond Building Just Back of the Police Station. Columbia, Special.?What will result in a terrible tragedy occured Friday night about 7 o'clock in the old Richmond building just in the rear of the police station. Marie Watkins, colored, threw a lighted lamp at Thomasica Broom, colored. The latter was so t Knt cKa nrilt HPaKo HI XT woui j uuiucu iuai cue niu die. From the story of Florence Guignard, a small, mulatto girl of some 12 years and considerable intelligence, it seems that these two half grown negro girls were in a room in the old building, which was by common consent of the many colored families living there used as a parlor. There was a bed in this room and the two were lying on it. The lamp nearby on a table had little oil in it and an altercation arose aB to who should fill it. A friendly tussel began which merged itself into a sharper attack. The Watkins woman seized the lamp and threw it at the other woman as Bhe lay on tbo bed. Her light cotton garments flared up and the room was Ailed with smoke and Are. So large a blaze it was that the whole yard was lighted up although it was bright moon light outside. The Watkins woman, terrified, ran from the room down the hall, down the -steps and bid herself. She was found about 30 minutes later by Officer James Dunning who pulled her out from under a bouse and locked her up. The unfortunate Broom girl leaped from the bed and ran out of the room down the long hall screaming in pain and fright. As she neared the stair case some one threw a blanket over ber but she did not stop, and it fell away and the flames leaped higher and higher above her head. By this time some one was on hand with buckets of water and as the girl fell exhausted at the stair case the water was thrown upon her. The spot where she fell was marked.by the scorched and burnt rags of ber clothing. Almost all of it was burned off. She was frightfully burned about the hips, back and shoulders. Dr. D. S. Pope, the city physician, was called in and attended the woman. He said last night that while she might live tne night through it was hardly probftbl* that she could recover. About midnight the woman's condi1 Hon was about the same. She was still alive but was in a critical condition. It is hardly probable that she will recover. The case against Marie Watkins will be brought up this morning {n the recorder's court aud will probably be carried up to the circuit court. Successful Experiment. Beaufort. Special.?On a farm a few miles from Beaufort, un^er the management of Mr. Speimer, a very successful experiment has been made in corn planting. A patch containing one .18-100 acres has produced 121 bushels, or about 85 bushels to the acre. The very large yield is attributed to close planting. A bed Ave feet wide was thrown np and the seed planted in two rows 22 Inches apart. The stalks stood 20 inches apart in the rows. "Allen's prolific" is the name of the seed used, which was planted during the first week in May. Two tons of cotton oil sweepings, costing about $2, was the only fertilizer used. The land planted was low, heavy and new. It is a part of Capt. Peter Lea's farm at Burton. The wonderful growth has been watched with much Interest by the farmers of that vicinity. New Enterprises. The Darlington Steam Laundry has applied for a commission, capitalization to be $3,000. Corporators. R. E. Deans. J. I* Nettles, E. R. Cox, R. J. Rivenbark. The Osteon Publishing Company of Sumter was chartered, captizalization $15,000. Directors, C. P. Osteen, president; N. G. Osteen. vice president; N. G. Osteen, Jr., secretary and treasurer; H. P. Osteen. J. H. Levy, Abraham Ryttenburg and I. C. Strauss. The Ocean View Social Club of Charleston was chartered. S. J. Pregnall, president; J. O. Moissin. vice president; John Conway, secretary and treasurer. By Wire and Cable. At an Informal luncheon to RcatvAdmiral Jewell and other American naval officers King Edward drank a toast to the American navy. The Cuban Congress closed, after a fruitless session. The Ameer of Afghanistan has decided to send his son to meet Lord Curzon, Viceroy of India, on the lutter's return. .Senator Knox before the Union League Club of New York explained President Roosevelt's attitude toward combinations. General Mills, superintendent of the West Point Academy, urges the erection of a building for the treatment of infections diseases. The Democratic Congressional Committee has issued a statement advising that a pilose watch be kept upon the pending negotiations for a new Chinese I treaty. The Russian and Japanese armies were fogbound, preventing hostilities. The fighting was reported to be still going on at Port Arthur. A breach lias been made in the Manchester ship canal at Runcorn, and when the tide is out water pours into the bed of the river Mersey at the rateof 70,000 to 100,000 gallons per hour. As, however, the tide sweens into the canal twice in every twenty-four hours no appreciable difference appears to be , riade in the level of the waterway. The danger lies in the possible undermining of the wall at this point. The "burst" has occurred at a point where there was experienced great difficulty in building the wall. y ( IN ?SlL>\ IWm * o# Parchment White. Parchment white, as well as oyster white, is particularly becoming. In the former there is a slightly brownish cream tinge, while in the latter a grayish-green is seen. # N?r?r Ridicule Children. Never tantalize or ridicule children; never scold or punish them for an accident; never laugh at their mistakes or misfortunes; never distroy a cherished pet. Such treatment exasperates and alienates, and tends to make them secretive and untruthful. V. Baby's Mosquito Net. A good idea for baby lies In a cover for the coach parasol. This was formed of bobinette in circular shape with a lace edged ruffle. The novelty is in the size. Being cut much larger than the parasol it covers the whole coach, falling well over the sides, and thus forming a mosquito or fly net. A Motor Toilet. Along with the tool kits, and emergency things with which all the big touring cars are supplied, there is now a recognition of madam's needs in the shape of a toilet case, containing all the little necessities the mere man who thought of this-innovation deemed essential. The list is pretty good, too, including mirror, brush, comb, cold cream box, powder puff, chamois, soft linen to wipe the face, and yards of veiling. In Shepherd's Plaid. Another very pretty green and blue shepherd's plaid walking gown had a four-gored skirt, with the fullness supplied by small pleats stitched for about three inches below the belt. Each of the gores ended at the knee in a pointed tab, under which fell a tucked flounce. The waist was a sort of an Eton, and was provided with three pointed tabs, overlaying each other in front. These are seamed in the middle. The wide bell sleeves have the tab trimming near the bottom, and are flnished with lace under^ sleeves. . . ^Jtr * KewNt Collars. The very newest turn-over collar afcows the tendency of all things in dress to be dainty and feminine this season. In place of a linen turn-over the bewitching summer girl wears a turn-over collar of accordion-pleated white mull edged with a narrow band of butter colored lace. Narrow accordion-pleated cuffs of the same material give the finishing soft touch to the sleeves of the frock, says the Woman's Home Companion. The frill turns l?i/>L- apu, oIaapa nnf- folHnf nvpr uav.ft V? 1UW OiV>VIV| wv v *wa>*UQ w > ? the hand. ^ ^ Amo(ln| Flower*. The vessel in which you put your flowers has much to do with their effect. Long stemmed ones of stately habit, like the lily, will be spoiled If low vases are used. Flowers with short stems are always unsatisfactory In anything but low bowls or Shallow vessels, says the Chicago News. Color taust always be taken into consideration. A blue china bowl, may be pleasing when filled with yellow roses, but put pink roses Into It and you get discord. As a general thing a crystal vase or cut glass "bowl will be found more satisfactory than any colored vessel, because when these are used there can be no clash of color?no striving for predominance in hue or tone between the flowers and their receptacle. ' A Sachet Covering. " ?. Crepe paper as a covering for sachets is one of the latest wrinkles. Silk, chiffon, embroidered linen and th<? nthor dheor ?nrt /tpHrato materials with which sachets are usually covered sell quickly. The lovely Japanese crepe papers make an excellent substitute, so some bright girl has discovered. She justs takes candy boxe3 and other pretty pasteboard boxes that come to her, lines them with wadding over which sachet powder has been strewn, then covers that with a pretty crepe paper. Mucilage, nicely applied, serves to fasten all this down at the corners and edges. Of course, the whole needs to be done exactly?no bungling, or the dainty prettiness Is spoiled. Such sachet boxes cost but a few cents, and are not only graceful adjuncts to a iastiuious toiiet, uui ?? cidedly useful. I v Worn at a Gar,l??ti Tarty. A particularly pretty afternoon ?3Wn seen the other day was of the palest 1 straw-colored batiste, embellished with broderic Anglaise carried out la light blue. Folds of light taifeta were arranged beneath the fronts of the blouse, and the came material formed the girdle, which was threaded through a dull gold buckle in front. The Leghorn hat matched the toilette i precisely in tint, and was trimmed with apricot-colorcd roses and pale " azure strings. Another smart toilette was all of black point d'esprit with an exquisite li ,f 9 womanM i realm j :%? % Venetian lace collar and a point d'esprit bat. plumed with green and white ostrich feathers. A rose-pink inousseline had a charming little chemisette of fichu colored lace, ' light together bj a trellis of blacl velvet, connected, by little bows. Full sleeves, all of ruffles, were worn as far as the elbows, and there long suede gloves met them. A picturesque hat of black crinoline, with a bunch of huge roses and black feathers completed a very charming whole. The prevalent colors were palest pink and blue, a fresh green and ? delicate mauve. All the uncommon and aesthetic colore, such as ashes of roses, puce,, and onion, are less appropriate at a sylvan fete. ?? Boudoir Chat. The woman who constantly scans the mirror for wrinkles will be certain to discover them soon. A few women worry so much about old age that they never get a chanceN 10 enjoy youm. On the shady side of thirty-five a woman can do lots of things that she wouldn't dare to do before. Many a woman who can make men tremble is tyrannized orer by a little piece of glass with quicksilver behind it. Think of the relief of no longer having to move heaven and earti*. to look young and captivating. Up to a certain age soft grays and pale ncauves make a woman look older than she is; after that they make her look younger. The best face wash is a smile, and a cheerful heart will longest defer the traces of old age. If you have grown old in spinstephood, consider the rascal you' may. have escaped marrying. Age is not wrinkles anl gray hair; it is a shriveled heart, dead hopes and withered affections which not Time bill our own folly brings us. There is always some.one who can recall an unpleasant incident in which you cut a figure. Eskimo women wear underdotbng t made of the skins of birds.
