The second suit for $50,000 , that has been commenced with- ' in the last few days was filed this morning in the office of the * clerk of the court by R J Kirk, administrator of the estate of S ' G Courtenay Kirk, deceased. The Atlantic Coast Line railroad company and H M Hutson are the defendants in the suit * Bryan & Bryan are the attorneys for the plaintiff. In the complaint it is alleged ' that S G C Kirk,]of tender years. ar>r? hv an en TT ttO OVA MVU UMVk gine of The Atlantic Coast Line Company in Kingstree, on December 9, 1906, and that the death of the boy was due to the j fault of the defendant company' and the engineer, who did not ring his bell, give the proper warnings, or take the necessary precautions while approaching a thoroughfare. The accident took place in the morning,at about 11 o'clock, according to the complaint. Damages are claimed by the parents of the victim for $50,000. ( This suit and that filed by B , F Tesky for the same amount , break records for filing of heavy damage suits in Charleston. It , is a comparatively rare occur-'j rence for a suit to run over $30,- J 000 in the Charleston court, and !; to have two $50,000 suits come !; within a few days of each oth- j; er is rarer.? Charleston Post. 1, Irs General Pickett Writes of Dolly , ladisoD. I, Mrs La Salle Corbell Pick ett, widow of the brave Confed- , erate general^who won a death- . less fame on the field of Gettys- ( burg, has a charming article on 'Queen Dolly" Madison in the , September Lippincotfs. In it 6be throws some interesting sidelights on the character of 1 this former mistress of the , White House. The complete noval is a detective story called 'A Chain of Evidence," by Carolyn Wells. Miss Wells is better known for her humorous work, but that she can write serious fiction of a high order is amply evidenced by this very entertaining narrative. George L Knapp contributes an article on the poet Shelly, which should | prove of great interest to Lippincctt readers. Lloyd Buchanan, Elsie Singmaster, Elliott Flower, Joseph M Rogers, Jane Belfield, May Harris,and a number of other wel-known writers are also represented in this exceptionally strong and readable magazine. A Firs Answer. The Rev Mr Freuder, of Philadelphia, tells this story of himself. Borne time ago he was invited to dine at the house of a friend, whose wife went into her kitchen to give some final orders. Incidentally, she added to the servant, "We aretohave a Jewish rabbi for dinner to-day." For a moment the maid sur-, eyed her mistress in grim silence. Then she spoke with decision. "All I have to say is," she announced, "if you have a Jewish rabbi for dinner, you'll cook it yourself."?

We are sending out a number of statement* to our subscribers who ire in arrears. We don't want to ?fffcrw1 anvfinp and wp lionp that no body will be foolish enough to take umbrage at our asking for what is 3ue us. At the same time we would rather a man would get mad and pay ap than to stay pleased and pay nothing. ' In the near future we have several notes to meet on paper and material uad it is urgently necessarv to sollect what our subscribers owe ns. Dur actual running expenses are $50 ? week and it is a plain proposition that we cauuot continue to issue the paper unless this money is forth coming. Printers have to be paid Saturday night, and paper men won't wait till fall for their money. Now, we have a number of these little accounts scattered among hundreds of people, but it means a substantial sum to us. With the price of paper advancing every week we simply can't afford to 3end the paper any longer to those who won't pay; so if you are really unable to pay and owe us for over a year, kindly notify us, so that we can 6trike your name off our list, as we don't care to send good money after bad.
