THE GIRL I LIKE.
The girl whom II ike best, is she,
Who dpes not glawce coquetisbly
Around: nor says "Ahem," &c.
When passing by.
Sortis too sensible to fiirt
W?i ?-every lit th Poodle Pert
Who wears a cane, ? ruffled shirt,
Anda glass eye.
She knows ths.t "Life is but a dream,"
That '"Things are seldom what they seem,"
That sodawater, shakes and cream
Cost money.
Although refusing, wheo yon name
These things^ijhe takes them just the same.
Eow funny !
She has a pleasant word for all,
K?nd is her heart, though her purse small,
She hearkens to the suppliant call
Of charity.
She hits a cultivated mind.
Her conversation is refined.
She rates slate, gossip, and their kind
.Vulgarity.
Shs*s careful as to whom she meets
Whether at home, or on the streets.
With equal courtesy she treats
The richland poor.
She knows a man by what he does.
By what he is, not what be was.
He must be virtuous, else pause
Before ber door.
Of course she likes society,
Bat not ID such variety,
As will affect ber piety
Or ber good name.
Loving ber home as all girls ought,
She needs no beaux, but is most sought.
She "sets ao caps," and if you're caught
You are to blame.

"They are cc ming, Father Abraham,

^l^etrs that comes from the mili?
ch tia of the State, who have seized on
the id<?a of a week of ca?np life Cit;
IfiErreeijeviile with a display of eager- j
ness and of good judgment that does .
riliem credit and does the city proud.
M ^Whatever may now or hereafter be
sai'J aban? file Gala Week, it is to be
acknowledged with pleasure sad!
pride that the military of the whole
State have responded splendidly to
Greenville's invitation-for the encamp?
ment. The Sower of the State will
be here in all the pomp and circum?
stance of martial peaced and it will be
such an opportunity as has never
been before in South Carolina, to
view., the Scale's military system iu
its organized, practical workings.
.Few people here, perhaps, have
reiHzed hov* extensive an affair the
summer encampment will be. It will
be the second State encampment ever
undertaken in South Carolina, and it
will be the grandest display of mili?
tia ever seer) in the State. The first
encampment, had at Spartanburg*
last year along with the Grange en?
campment, was ? success in spite of
the m at ?j* disadvantages worked
-against there, and profiting by the
experience of the first attempt, the
Adjutant General determined to make
the second encampment a notable
and ?Se?tive illustration of what the
State militia was and what it could
do. In that the militaiy organiza?
tions of ino State have enthusiasti?
cally seconded the Adjutant. General,
and the result promises to be a splen?
did display of volunteer troops, with
a week bi effective drill and disci?
pline in rom.iue camp Hie that will be
invaluable io the soldiers themselves
The list of companies entering for
the encampment has been steadily
and raoidly growing. The last re
port from the Adjutant General?
oSce gave the following 28 compa?
nies who were sure of going into
camp : The Carolina Rifles, Irish Vol?
unteers and Sumter Guards of Charles?
ton, Edisto Rifles of Orangeburg,
Manning Guards of Manning, Sumter
L'srht Infantry of Sumter, Morgan
RiSes of Spartanbnrg, Richland Vol?
unteers of Columbia, Abbeville Rifles

in addition to ti ese, the Centen?

likely to come into camp, but are not j
certain yet. They nm the list to 30 j

Tito local n?ilitary committee, he?d-j
ed by Captains Norwood, of tho
Greenville, and Hunt, of the Butler
Guards, have been very much alive j
to 'iso bigness bf thc encampment, j
ami they hr-.ve done in a quiet way ao j
immense amount of work m prepara- j
tion. Cot? rderab!e grading has been j
done on the encampment ground**, j
the camp Las been laid oil", the privi- j
lege reservation has been fixed and a !
number of privil?ges sold, and the j
water works for thc- camp have been i
put in. This br.v;e!; ol' the work has j
beet) under charge partly of Chair- j
man Fer^.eoo. of the executive com- !
mittee, who has furnished a large j
tank, arid the eugine formerly used at j
the jail spring in pumping water to j
tho Maris':?? ? i [?.::>.<>. The water will ?
be pumped froto the spring at the'
fwMt?o of Cipt J. 13 Kikit?, near tlie j
University grou-ej t, i:it:> a large res- ?
ervoir it timed tate ly at the camp, j
whence i: can he drawn for usc. The !
tank will be kept constantly full, and j
holding warty 5???0 gallons, it i ri- j
sureS an abundant supply of cold, !
spring water to the camping soldiers.
According to the plan drawn by
Gen. Ilugueuin, the camp will be
laid off into streets crossing each
other at right angles and forming
blocks on each of which a
company will be encamped. Each
command will have a cook stove un?
der a frame shelter, and a long table
for eating purposes. The tents,
which ate to be furnished by the
government, will be pitched ready
for the soldiers when they arrive.
With these conveniences, giving
plenty of room, plenty of shade and
plenty of fresh spring water, it is be?
lieved that camp life .will be as pleas?
ant as it can be made.
These are only a few of the import?
ant military features of the Gala
Week. Every day the military will
occupy a conspicuous place in?the
program, and with the prize, individ?
ual and company drills, the parades
and the grand review, they will serve
to bring thousands of visitors to the
city from every nook and corner of
the State.
And the time is not far off, either.
Thirty-four days and the Gala Week
will be here, and the ''tramp, tramp,
tramp," of the blue and gray coated
and brass buttoned soldiers will be
heard in the streets, with the music
of fife and drum and of half a dozen
bands.-Greenville News.
The Lights of the Future.
West Greenville is bristling with an
imposing array of tall, smoothly-trim?
med cypress poles that have been ran
up in the labt few days by the work?
men of the Brash Electric company,
who are evidently realizing; the exceed?
ing short time they have in which to put
in the Greenville street lighting system,
and are determined to make every day
count.
The lights will be suspended in the
centre of the street, between two tall
poles on either side. The poles carry?
ing the wires between the stations are
placed on the side of the street and are
not so talr as the others. Where there
are trees in the street, they are beiog
moved sb as to give the light free play.
Rapid progress has been made in pat
tins ap the poles so far, and Messrs.
Wright and Henderson, of the Brush
company, are confident they will have
the system ready for the Gala Week.

What is the Matter With Tillman ?
We repeat it, what is ike matter with
Hon. George D. Tillman, w&o is the
representative in Congress from the
Second District of South Carolina?
He's all right. Is be not honest? k
he not an able man ? Is be not an In?
dependent man ? - AU of these guet?
tions must be answered in the agita?
tive by eve; y fair minded mac ?n his
district, and by every man outside of it
who knows him.
True, he has certain peculiarities,
which peculiarities, however, seem to
be inseparable from men of independ?
ent tboaght and action. Intellectually,
George D. Tillman is the peer of any
man in Congress from his own State,
and he has few superiors in Congress
from any other State in the Union.
Brusque he may be at times, bat that
braskness comes from a heart that beats
strongly, and from a mind that thinks
courageously. He may not have the j
graces of a Chesterfield, bat be has im- j
bedded in his ragged nature and in his :
big brainy head the principles of true '
Jeffersonian Democracy. His Democ?
racy is straightout. It is not hedged ,
in by 'ifs and ands.' Ile can always
tell yja his mother's name without
taking a rest. You always know where :
to find him. He may not run with the
popular current, for be ignores that
diplomacy which is based upon insin?
cerity and clap-trap. 1
lie speaks out his own thoughts, .
which are the result of careful reflection
to arrive at the truth, without any de- 1
sire to get in the swim of the popular '
tide. One of his great faults (?) is that j
he is not a hero-worshipper.
He has no relations to support at the
expense cf the government, and he
asks no favors at the bands of power. He 1
is as bold and as free as the eagle that
flies from the craggy peaks of Casar's
Head.
One of the people, he has honored 1
the trust which has been given him by '
his countrymen. He bas represented
them with ability, and it will be many 1
a day before the farmers of South Car?
olina will find as his successor so able
and worthy a representative as George
D. Tillman. He has been true to bis
convictions and to bis State and section,
and tho people will consult their best 1
interests by returning him to the posi?
tion which he has so long filled with
credit to himself and honor to bis dis?
trict. r|
Whoo George D. Tillman treads his
native heath and walks amor?g the
plain people, the yeomanry of his dis?
trict, he will shake off opposition like
the Numidiau lion shakes the dew drops
from his mane.-Augusta Chronicle,
Wealth in Poultry.
Poultry interests for farmers rest
upon a solid basis. Why? Because the
egg and fle>h are in demand and will
continue to be in demand so long as j
people eat ; and ibis demand will in- ?
crease as population increases, and as j
the habit of eating pork decreases;
which is tiie case with the most ? i> tell tr j
gent of the people. Theo there are ?
mr:ny o'her uses for eggs besides citing
theta. The (Jailed States has been
importing eggs for years, each year in?
creasing the number. According to
statines we imported 4.000,771 dozens
af ecr^s valued at ?GoU.393 in 187G.
lu 1885 we imported 10,094,450 dozens j
valued at ?2 47G.G7"2. being nearly j
four times as much in 1885 as in 183(3. j
Now, while our population has in- j
creased about twenty-four per ccu t., j
the importation of eggs hus increased i
nearly 4U0 per cent. In the meantime ;
our own production of eggs lus in
creased wonderfully, but not enough to j
supply the home demand. Now, si? ;
long ?S the consumption of eggs in
creases twenty five times faster than J
the population, how soon will we l>?- j
able to supply the home demand ? Wo ?
may some timo, but it will bc a long
time.
Ahother fact which will increase the
demand for poultry flesh needs to be
considered. The great cattle kings of j
the west will never in thc future sup
ply so much meat as in the past, and j
as poultry can bc raised on less range, j
I predict that it will become as common !
upon the tables of those who use meat j
as beef, faking the place of beef. It j .
requires but a few we'eks to raise poultry \ '
ready for table, which is another ad vant- > .
age over cattle and hog raiting. I
LIA ? ?
Taking all things into considerad
all farmers should be encouraged to pi
pare for raising poultry on a large sea
There is but a small portion of t
year that they must be deprived of t
full range of the farm, and so I ha
before urged, the orchard can be clos
to shut them out of mischief at scedii
time.-India na Farmer.

South Carolina and Tea Cn
ture.
Ex-United States Commissioner
Agriculture William G. LeDuo, who
great interest in introducing the cultu
of the tea plant in the South will be r
membered, is now located at Hastio j
Minnesota He has lately written
letter to Commissioner Butler, fro
which it ts evident that Mr. LeDuc b
by no means lost interest in bis p
scheme with his loss of office.
The following is an extract from ti
letter in question :
'I have been looking for some noti
of an effort to establish tea oultivatii
in the State, boping you might ba
taken up the experimental tea farm
Summerville, which was uuwisely dro
ped by my successor in office. Y<

and cheaper than they make it in Indi
The tea I had made from leaves grof
in South Carolina was pronounced 1
New York brokers India tea, of hi{
grade, made in the Province of Assat
and samples of the same sent to Loi
don brought offers of the very bigbe
price, fifty to sixty cents a pound. The
same teas, I was assured by the rn:
who made them, and who was a ti
superintendent for years in India, cou
bc made in South Carolina and Georg
for from 16 to 22 cents per pound.
'In what way could you better ai
vance the interest os your State and
the entire South than by establishing
new industry of equal importance wil

In conclusion Mr. LeDuc says, in ri
lation to emigration to South Carolina
.By proper effort there ia no doul
your State can secare a very desfrab
immigration from Northern and Eas
ern StatesJ-Columbia Register.

"PROSPECTUS.
THE WORLD BUDGET COMPANY re?
spectfully announces to the people of
Unar]e9ton and South Carolina that its daily
and weekly newspaper publications will be
issued under the company's sole ownership
and control from this date.
Having arranged for able editorial manage?
ment, the aim and purpose of The World-Bud?
get Company will be not only to present the
latest news fronj all parts of the earth, but to
render public service by fair, impartial criti?
cism of matters of public interest, con?
densing the wrong and asserting and defend?
ing the right.
For many years a second morning news?
paper has been needed m Charleston. Its in?
telligent populace desired that both sides of
every important question should be fairly
considered and the opportunity of candid ex?
pression be freely given on all public topics,
so tluit the people might be emancipated
from thc mischievous supremacy of a single
morning publication ?hat ia liable, and very
apt, to suppress al] views at variance with its
narrow or selfish policy.
T?l?graphie and local news of importance
will i?e found in both The World and Budget \
more fully reported than in any other news?
paper issued in Ibis city or State.
Our papers will maintain that thc p?sent
national tariff, founded upon necessity for rev?
enue which no longer exists; should t.e revised
upon a basis of fair trade, thus giving pro?
tection to industries th*t need protection, lo
the extent that American labor shall not be
crippled or brought into rivalry with cheap
foreign labor
In general politics, the newspapers issued
by The \VWld-Hudget Company will be
SM inly iu accord with the patriotic tenets of
?hr iJcmocratic part}" of South Carolina, and
I he whole country. Having no friends to
conciliate, or enemies tu punish, the business I
nod editorial aims of The World and lind get j
will be to use every proper influence in foster- [
mg and augmenting the best interests of this ;
city and the ?tate.
With these honest, straightforward decla?
rations, we solicit the active support of a
byrne constituency which is largely interested
in the establishment of progressive, sharply
edited journals that are conducted for the
benefit of the [?copie of Charleston ?nd South
Carolina, and the maintenance of the public
welfai e.
Wc shall always seek to faithfully serve
the people, for thrir discrimination ?nd moral j
support will prove that it is not news alone; I
nor business enterprise, nor even literary ?
ability, that makes success in thc newspsper j
world. It is the recognition by the people of
an earnest desire to serve them in thc creation
of a moral force that shall tend to the corree- j
tion of abuses and the reform of govern- j
mental administrations.

Glenn Springs Mineral Water,
Testimonials of Eminent Physicians
of the State?
The following are selected from many sim?
ilar ones :
Da. L. C. KBXXEDY, of Spartanburg,
writes the Proprietors : "The remedial qual?
ities of Glenn Springs I have known for over
forty years, and can attest to its value in
Dyspepsia from gastric or fonctionnl derange?
ment of the Liver, General Debility, Dropsical
Effusions. Uterine Irregularity and Affections
of the Kidneys and Bladder. To the last dis?
eases I would particularly call attention, as
the waters have shown large curative powers
in these complaints."
DR. O. B. MAYER, of Newberry, S. C.,
says: ''I have seut more than fifty persons
suffering with Jaundice to these Springs, aud
have never been disappointed in any case;
they all speedily recovered. I cannot find
words to express my confidence in the Glenn
Springs water, a3 a remedy for the Liver,
when functionally deranged. Dyspepsia,
Dropsy, certain skin diseases, troubles in the
Kidneys and Spleen, if produced by the Liver,
have ali, as I know, disappeared at the
Springs."
DR. JAMES MCINTOSH, President of the Med?
ical Association o? South Carolina, in his an?
nual address before that body remarks:
"Glenn Springs, for diseases of the Stomach,
Liverand Kidneys, deserves to rank with j
auy other on the continent."
PRICE OF WATER.
Per case of two dozen quart bottles, securely
packed aud delivered ou the train at Spartan
burp, $4.00.
Per gallon, by the barrel, delivered at
Spartanburg, 20 cents.
