Dealk' a Little One-localXews
and Personal Opialoa.
.fldrews, August 22:--Your local
/ribe was on the sick list last week.
hich is why no news letter was
sent. Am glad to say that "Richard
is himself again", or nearly so.
rOur old friend. Mr Henry Inman
of Georgetown,spent a few days last
week with the family of Mr P.achman
Dear.
Our community was visited by
two small showers last week, the
first rain we have had. in nearly
tnree weess.
I understand that great preparations
are being made for "farmers'
day" here next Saturday.
Cotton picking is going on. quite
lively now. The cotton here will all
be open within thirty days, the crop
being nearly ruined by dry weather.
Misses Minnie and Fannie Marshal!
of Morrisville passed through
town last Sunday o hi automobile
going to visit the family of Mr G Wl
Camlin. The Misses Marshall are
teachers in Earls High school.
Mr and Mrs John Swailslost their
infant child Sunday morning. We
have not learned the cause of the
child's death. The family have the
sympathy of the community.
Miss Ossie Camlin is visiting her!
sister, Mrs Elma Cliff, at Ceylon,Ga.
By the way, Mr Editor, certain
- v? >- 1 ,
magistrates nave uiscu\ncu oumc
new laws down here. Where no
magistrate now can issue claim and
delivery ffepers they say an attorney
is the only one who can issue such
papers. The magistrate simply executes
them. Our law-makers had
better reprint this law, so the learned
officers can understand it. All
over this little town they are trying
to intrude on the rights of our people.
As I have long ago predicted,
some good man will be killed over
this matter, then the whole thing
, will stop. I have made it a point to
discuss the matter with the officers
of the town, but still the work of
totally taking away the rights and
privileges of our people is carried onIf
all would-be rapists or negro
vagabonds who insult white ladies
were treated as the Abbeville negro
was, no doubt those heinous crimes
would stop. Besides, those criminals
will still suffer at the hands of the
law if they recover. It is a crying
shame how our fair women suffer at
the hands of black brutes. J ust last
week at St Georges a lady was
choked and struck in the mouth j
three times, and now in Oklahoma, 1 j
believe it is, the people are on the j
verge of a race war over two white I
ladies being killed by negroes. It
has come to the pass that we must
submit to the brutes taking the lives
of our wives and daughters and we
tnust not resent it. This thing is
growing to an alarming extent.
Later or sooner trouble will be had
right here with the negro.

Pat Kelly came home one night a

with a somewhat hazy idea of things.
Before long he was awakened by
the cry of "Fire," and in his hurry
to get his clothes on. Kelly put his
trousers on hind side before. He
then started down stairs but slipj^ed
and rolled to the bottom. A friend
ru-hed to his assistance and exclaimed:
"Are you hurt, Pat?"
Kelly got up and examined himself.
Seeing his trousers hind side before,
he said: "No, but I got a h of a
twist."?Xdtioaal Monthly.

Will Low, the painter, told this story
of the Latin quarter days of Robert
Louis Stevenson. Low and Stevenson
were great friends in their youth.
Their friendship indeed continued np
to the time of the writer's death.
"Louis/* said the artist, "was no less
diplomatic than brave. lie could be
flery, and he could also be gracious
and pacific. One night, I remember,
we sat In a garden in Montmartre.
The red wine had been flowing pretty
freely, and one member of our party
got heated and aggressive. Finally
some one said a thing that this fighting
chap disliked. As soon as the
words were spoken he grabbed up a
bottle and hurled it at the other's
head. It was a strong, true shot and
would have hit the mark had not Stevenson

The Burglar's Umbrella.
Among a collection of articles used
by burglars -when engaged in their nefarious
calling is one particular contrivance
that arouses great interest.
In appearance it resembles a large
umbrella that has seen hard service.
It was formerly the property of a burglar.
and it was by its means that he
was able to enter the second story of a
building. Removing the cover, a stick
wound with ropes is revealed. The
stick opens like a telescope or a jointed
fishing rod. Wound round it is a
rope ladder made of strong material
and about thirteen feet in length. The
ladder Is only wide enough for one
foot to be placed on the rungs. The
extending stick was used to raise one
end of the ladder to the window
through which the operator wished to
enter, and on the upper end of the
ladder are two hooks to be fastened
to the sill. This imitation umbrella is
regarded as one of the most ingenious
affairs ever made use of by a thief.?

Took the Shilling.
A recruiting sergeant one day met an
Ignorant youth idling, with his hands
in his pockets and standing before a
house on the front of which was a
notice informing the public that the
building was to be sold. The notice
ran thus: "To Be Sold by Private
I Treaty."
The sergeant approached the youth
and asked him if he had ever thought
of Joining the army.
"Not me." was the reply. "You'd
have nothing in the army worth talking
about"
"Is that so?" said the other. "Well,
how is it then Private Treaty has a
house for sale and him only a private
yet?"
The youth looked thoughtful and
puzzled, and presently, over a pint of
ale, the possibility of owning a house
by Joining the army grew Into a certainty
and the shilling changed hands.

Wonderful Animalcule?.
Of all the minute creatures that inhabit
this globe unseen by the naked
eye there is none so astonishing, according
to the Scientific American, as
the little living things that live in
stagnant water. They are called slipper
animalculae, or. as the scientist
has it, the Paramecium. These tiny,
invisible things develop so rapidly that
If they were able to live through 350
generations they would crowd every

until the nine hundredth
