bond was given by Maj Evans' two
brothers, Ex Gov John Gary Evans
and Mr George Evans, and Dr W. J.
Murray of this eily, who promptly
qualified
The line of defense as preseuted at
the hearing before the coart was a
surprise to many The original
statement ef Maj Evans that Capt
Griffin had killed bim?elf was adher?
ed to with the modification that the
pistol might have been accidentally
fired while Maj Evans was endeavor
ing to prevent him (Griffin) from
doing so, and just as he took it by
force from Capt Griffin. The hearing
was productive of the first detailed
statement from Maj Evans in the
shape of a sworn affidavit, which
covers the points of most of the
circumstantial evidence developed
thus far. Affidavits from several new
witnesses were presented, but very
Tittie of a really new character was
brought out aside from the statements
of the janitor of the Greefield build?
ing and of Maj Evans himself, and
the 8trtement8 as to time
When the hearing began at 10
o'clock yesterday morning the court
room was very well filled with at?

Charleston. April 29.-The trip of
Col R M Wallace, Dr J F Ensor
and E A Webster to Washington
last week seems to have been pro?
ductive of much satisfaction to the
State Republican organization, in
that the delegation was assured that
there would be no radical changes
on the part of the national party lead?
ers to the State organization The
delegation called on the assistant
postmaster general and other mem?
bers of the administration and a
pleasant meeting was also bad with
Senator McLaurin and the new dis
trict attorney, John G. Capers The
delegation assured the administration
that the South Carolina organization
was not fighting the administration,
as has been claimed by a Charleston
morning newspaper The adminis?
tration did Dot need assurances on
this point, however, the statements
of the local organization fighting the
national body was too absurd to be
credited The trip was also taken in
the interest of Postmaster Ensor'e
reappointment and the delegation
was led to beiieve that he will be re?
appointed
Col Wallace was asked about his
trip today, and he expressed his per
sonal satisfaction with it. He said
that Dr Ensqr and Mr Webster
spent several days pleasantly in the
capital They called on the assistant
postmaster general and they also
saw Senator McLaurin .'and Mr John
G Capers. Their interview with the
senator and Mr Capers was pleasant,
Coi. Wallace said Col Wallace
said that he desired the correction of
the statement which had been-jlprint
ed that the South Carolina organiza
lion was opposing the administration
The State party would like to have
saen Mr Lathrop reappointed, he
said, but since the administration
saw fit to appoint Mr Capers, the
State oiganization gracefully, and
willingly accepts the appointment
The appointment was made at the re
quest of Senator McComas of Mary?
land, and Senators Scott and Elkins
of We6t Virgiuia, Col. Wallace stat?
ed, and the request of these senators
was endorsed by Senator McLaurin,
who is a personal friend of Mr.
Capers Mr Lathrop's application
was not on file when the appoint
ment was made Coi Wallace said
that Senator McLaurin and the Wash
ington friends of the senator do uot
take the credit lor the appointment.
The crediting of the appointment to
Senator McLaurin, Col Wallace said,
is being done by the opponents of
the senator for his hurt in his canvass
for reelection Senator McLaurin
does stand close to the administra
tion, however, Col Wallace, said,
but be is not considered a Republi?
can in Washington, and he should
be prayed to be delivered from those
friends who are trying to make peo?
ple believe that he directs the patron?
age of the administration
Col Wallace said that be and Mr
Webster and Dr Ensor visited the
poctoffice department in ihe interest
of the reappointment of Dr Ensor as
postmaster at Columbia and Col Wal?
lace gave it as his opinion that the

CATCHING CICADAS.
How Certain Malays Obtain a Curi?
ons Delicacy.
Certain natives of the Malay peninsu?
la catch cicadas and eat them and that
as a considerable luxury. To eat a ci?
cada .seems distinctly curious, says the
London Daily Mail, when we reflect
that this insect is in reality a glorified
member of that insect group which
contains as its most prominent repre?
sentative the diminutive and swarthy
creature which shall be nameless here
forevermore.
The way in which the Siamese pro?
ceeds was related to the Zoological so?
ciety the other day by a naturalist who
has spent some time in the Malay pen?
insula observing men as well as in?
fects. At night, when these insects fly.
the native sallies forth armed with a
torch and but little raiment The torch
is deposited in a convenient place, and
the swarm of natives proceed to clap
their hands in a perfectly regular fash?
ion so as to produce a considerable
sound.
It is the combination of light and
sound that allures the cicada from its
haunts to its destruction. The insects
come also in swarms and settle upon
the bodies of the applauding natives,
whence they are easily detached, pre- j
served, cooked and eaten.
The Greek sage remarked that happy
are the cicadas in that they have voice?
less wives. It is apparently the lady
cicadas who are attracted by what
they fondly believe to be the love cry j
ojf the male and are thus lured to their j
fate by that most dangerous of pas?
sions.
The Universal Cry-Wanted, a Man.
Never did the world call more loudly
for young men with force, energy and
purpose, young men trained to do some
one Hiing, than today. Though hun?
dreds of thousands are out of employ?
ment, yet never before was it so hard
tc get a good employee for almost any
position as today. Everywhere people
are asking where to find a good serv?
ant, a polite and efficient clerk, an hon?
est cashier, a goo;l stenographer who
can spell and punctuate and is general?
ly well informed. Managers and super?
intendents of great institutions every?
where are hunting for good people to
fill all sorts of positions. They tell us
that it is almost impossible to find effi?
cient help for any department.
There are hundreds of applicants for j
every vacant place, but they either
show signs of dissipation, are rude or
gruff in manner, are slouchy or slip?
shod in dress, are afraid of hard work,
lack education or training or have some
fai:al defects which bar them out. Even
if they are given positions very few are
able to hold them, and so this great ar?
my tramps about from .store to store,
frc m office to factory, wondering why
otters succeed when they fail, why oth?
ers get the positions when they are de?
nied.

Food of Prehistoric Man.
Upon examining some skulis dating
back from the stone age Mr. Charters
White, M. K. C. S.. noted that several
of the teeth, although quite free from
caries, were thickly coated with tartar.
It occurred to him that it would be
possible by a rough analysis to identify
any particles of food that might be im?
bedded in this natural concrete and so
reveal the character of the aliment
partaken of by prehistoric man. Dis?
solving the tartar in a weak acid, a
residue was left which, under the mi?
croscope, was found to consist of corn
husk particles, hairs from the outside
of the husks, spiral vessels from vege?
tables, particles of starch, the point of
a fish tooth, a conglomeration of oval
cells probably of fruit, the barblets of
down and portions of wool.
In addition to this varied list were
I some round red bodies the origin of
which defied detection and many sandy
particles, some relating to quartz and
some to flint. These mineral fragments
were very likely attributable to the
I rough stones used in grinding the corn
and would account for the erosion of
the masticating surfaces, which in
many cases was strongly marked. This
inquiry into the food of men who lived
not less than 4.000 years ago is a mat?
ter of groat a rc h tro log i cal interest.

"THE FRENCH SHORE."
Where Misery, Sqna'or. Hunier arid
Cold Rule In Newfoundland.
Misery, squalor and wretchedness,
accentuated by an almost ceaseless j
struggle with hunger and cold, are the I
portion of the inhabit;1, nts of the
"North Shore,"' in Newfoundland. ,
Their little hamlets are perched in the
rifts in the almost unbroken hills, and
the fierce storms swoop the surface
almost to their doorsteps, while for
seven months of the year their coast
is blockaded with ice and. they are cut
off fruin all communication with the
outside world.
The only industry is codfish lng, and
cod is the sole medium of exchange.
The people rarely see money, and bar?
ter is the system of trading, ?a quintal
cf cod being the unit of value. The
needs of the iisher folk are only sup?
plied by the, itinerant trader, his
schooner being laden with provisions,
clothing and fishing appliances. Thus
have these people lived for generations.
They are ignorant, for the means of
education are nonexistent, the children
being content with what satisfied their
fathers. The common objects of every?
day life are unknown to them. They
have neither horses nor cattle. Only
a few of the older folk who have ven?
tured south have any knowledge of
these things.
There are no roads and therefore no
vehicles. Travel is by boat during
the summer and over the ice floes dur?
ing the rest of the year. The few let?

by dog teams during the winter, and,
save for the fortnightly visit of the
mailboat during the period cf open

by the residents.

"Yes. it was a lovely bunch of vio?

to me. You see, it was this way: The
man who sent them is one of those aw?

"Yes; I've seen the type." sympathet?

"Well, on my birthday he sent that
lovely bunch of violets-perfect beau?
ties they were-with a dear little note
to the effect that he had to go out of
town, but would be represented by
these little purple clad messengers, so
like my eyes and whose fragrance al?
ways reminded him of me. I thought
the note rather nice," she concluded
pensively, "and put the Howers in the
parlor on the center table, writing back
that I had done so. Why in the world
was I so prompt?" she wailed.
"It was no more than polite."
"Oh, much morel My dear, it is al?
ways idiotic to go into details like that.
Well, he did not go out of town, but
was 'fortunately' detained and came
around after all to tell me so. And
those wretched violets"
"Stfroly they were all right?"
"I had loaned them to Annie to wear
to the Blanks' dinner. Of course I
had to tell him that the heat of the
room was too great, and I had put
them in the icebox. Just as he was
going and I was congratulating myself

..A? Mad as a Hatter.??
Probably very few persons who fre?
quently use the expression "As mad as
a hatter" have any idea as to what it
means or why a hatter is necessarily
any more subject to fits of anger than
a plumber, a blacksmith or a carpen?
ter. The expression is said to have
come into use half a century ago, when
the manufacture of hats was done
wholly by hand. The most striking
thing about the process was that of the
beating up of the felt The hatter first
dipped the mass of wool and hair fre?
quently into bot water; then, seizing a
stick in each hand, he belabored the
mass most vigorously, stopping now
and then to get his breath, until the
material was matted together in a
rough sort of felt The lively beating
administered to the felt as if the work?
man were actually incensed, gave .rise
to the familiar simile.
