South Carolina Census. Washington, Sept 12.-The census bureau today issued a bulletin on the ?school, militia and voting populations in South Carolina. It shows 560,773 of school age, including 354 foreign born. Of the aggregate 21S,323 are white and 342,450 are colored, all but i 49 of the last named being negroes. There are 279,546 males of whom 279, 368 are native born and 110,775 are white. The total native white males of school age is 110,598, of whom all but 1,848 are of native parents. Fe? males of school age number 281,227, all but 176 being native born and 107, - 548 being white. Males of militia age 1 aggregate 26,776. of whom ali but 1,506 are native born, and the total white number 106,406. Of the 104,983 native white all but 2,685 are of native parentage and of the 130,361 classified as colored " all but 7S are negroes. Males of voting age aggregate 283,325, all but 3,104, being native born and the total white number 130,375. Of : the 127,396 native white all but 2,979 are of native parents and all but 90 of the 152,950 classified as colored are negroes. More Race Prejudice. New York State has furnished an? other instance of their race prejudice against the negro and the falsity of * their claim that they are the negro's special friend. James H. Tarbert, who is the assistant principal of the Fort Valley, Ga., High and Industrial School, with a party has been in the habit of making "trips through the North soliciting funds for the school. This summer he made a trip through the Adirondacks and he and his party had great difficulty in securing food and shelter. They finally wound up at Saranac Lake, a summer resort where they gave a concert. After the con? cert they went to a hotel to get lodg? ing and the proprietor laughed at them. This was repeated at two other hotels, one of which gave them some hash and tea on the grass in the back yard and 'charged them 25 cents each. They then tried farm houses and finally se? cured the privilege of sleeping in a hay loft This was pretty rough treat? ment to receive in the land of great moral ideas and the brotherhood of man. We do not know that they would have fared any better at South vern hotels nor would they have applied at them, but they had a right to ex , peet different and better treatment at the hands of these loud-mouthed friends in the Adirondacks. We make no professions here of receiving ne? groes on an eqnality bnt up there -they do. but it seems it is all a profes? sion. Hypocrisy wears a very thin veil.-Anderson Mail. > ---^ Anarchists in Danger. Chicago, Sept. 13.-General orders were issued tonight by Chief of Police O'Neill for every available man on the police force throughout the city to be kept on reserve in the event that there was any demonstration against the *** anarchists. At central station 35 men were detailed to watch the principal hotels and public buildings for any signs of a demonstration, and thirty more were held in reserve. At .the detail station the entire day force was held on reserve duty. "We are prepared" for any kind of an emergency." said Chief O'Neill. "If any one cares to create a disturbance. I believe we will be abie to stop any acts of violence. The county jail is weil guarded and in addition the entire force is so mobolized that it can be called together in a short time.*' Three men, one of them the son of *"? prominent hotel keej er, visited the offices of the papers during the early part of the evening, with a call writ? ten out and signed by all three, asking that if there were definite news of the death of President McKinley by 10 -o'clock tomorrow morning, they want? ed ten thousaand men to meet them in front of the county jail and take steps to lynch the anarchists confined in the building. Their call met with little response, although the general feeling was with them. There were no crowds around the jail or around the Harrison street police stati m. and no indications of any. At the same time the police recog? nized the possibility of trouble when authentic news should be received of tie president's death, and announce! themselves ready and able to protect their prisoners if any attack should be made against them. Crowds in Buffalo Break for Jail. ^Buffalo, Sept. 14.--Shortly after midnight the great crowds on the .streets became excited over a rumor that the president was dead. A rush was made toward the police station where Czolgocz is confined. It was promptly met by the police reserves ^mounted and on foot and driven back after a weak resistance. In fact ^enty policemen handled the mob on oire street without trouble, indicating that they were not much in earnest in their endeavors to get to police headquarters. Mrs. Mattie Hughes Skips. _ Spartanburg, S. C., Sept. 12. There is a defendant missing at the criminal court in Greenville this week, says the Spartanburg Journal. The celebrated Mattie Hughes case was to have come up, but the defend? ant is not there, and she is ont here, where her home has been for more than a year past. She has been run? ning a restaurant and it is generally conceded has made a great deal ?of money and trouble. Mattie A. Hughes left this town last week in the attire of a man. She sold her restaurant business and for a day I or so was seen about town several times with man's clothing on. It has been hinted by some who pretend to know that she" has either gone to Charleston or Charlotte. It is not be? lieved she is in the city. This woman has been the cause of a great deal of trouble. Nearly three years ago she killed her husband, George W. Hughes, at Greers, and three times she was put on trial, but? in each case a mistrial resulted. Judge Townsend heard the case first and it is his time at Greenville again. A few liquor cases are pending against her there. In Spartanburg her course did not improve and complaint resulted from her establishment at the depot. Fights became frequent and the police were in demand. A case for keeping a dis? orderly house was made by the grand jury. It is understood she has threatened the chief of police. Several cases for liquor selling are pending against her. Mrs. Hughes is undoubtedly away. She dressed up in a S15 suit, took 82, 000 it is said, and went out to see the world. To County Superintendents. Dear Sir: It is now unlawful for a school to be operated with the old text books. Attend to this matter in ad? vance, and do not wait until a teach? er's certificate is presented to you for approval. As the schools open the new books should be put in and the old books taken up. It is your duty as County Superintendent to exert yourself to facilitate the exchange of books, and save the loss that will re? sult from neglecting this matter. You are forbidden by law to allow any teacher to be paid who uses the old books instead of the new. In addition ;!totaking up the old books and selling the new through the depositories, County Superintendents are hastening the exchange by secur? ing the cooperation of the merchants in different country neighborhoods. They have recommended to the pub? lishers reputable men to handle the adopted books on consignment, and the publishers have consented to ship supplies to all such persons-the books to be sold at the wholesale contract price, the merchants handling them to be allowed 5 per cent of the proceeds in compensation. Although this is small compensation it sat? isfies the country merchant who realizes the value of the advertise? ment in handling the school books of the neighborhood. Text books are thus sold as cheaply in the country neighborhoods as from the County Depositories. The publisher thus receives less for his books in this State than anywhere else in the world, and school children buy books at the price wholesale dealers have to pay outside of South Carolina. I write to ask if you are one of the County Superintendents who have made this arrangement in their coun? ties? If you have not done so, I wish to urge you to do so at once. The publishers that have so far consented to this arrangement are the B. F. Jonhson Company and Ginn & Com? pany. Theirs are the books that are most necessary-readers, arithmetics, geographies and histories. They started this arrangement, and I am now trying to induce other publishers to make it. OLD BOOKS CLEANED UP. Some parents may not be fully in? formed of the fact that all old school books now in the hands of school chil? dren can be turned into money while the new books are being purchased : but that if they neglect this until November 15th, 1901, it will be too late after that. 1 have learnd that some merchants, not wishing to be bothered with taking up- the old books, do not encourage them to be broughton, and there are people who are buying books, not knowing that they can turn their old books into money. Each County Superintendent should see to it that "no such mistake occurs in his county. Inform all your teachers and trustees, and secure from all'merchants assurance of cooperation : and have your county sweet clean of the old books. Very truly. John J. McMahan, State Superintendent Education. August 29th, 11X11. THE WAR IN AFRICA. Majesfontein, Cape Colony, Sept, ll.--Col. Crabbe has surprised the camp of Yan Der Merwe. the most trusted lieutenant of Commandant Scheeper. killed, him and another Boer, and made prisoners of 27 out of the 100 men under Yan Der Merwe's command. London, Sept. ll.-Lord Kitchener reports to the war office from Pretoria as follows : "Metheun engaged Vautonder and De Larey in Great Marines valley Sept. o' and Sept. 8, driving them from a strong position Sept. 8. The I Boers left six dead Sept. ?, and twelve j Sept. S. Forty-one prisoners were captured. ->- p Washington. Sept. IL- All the mem? bers of the Schley court of inquiry are now in Washington, Rear Admiral Howison, the third member arriving last night. Today Admiral Howison paid a formal call as required by naval etiquette, at Admiral Dewey's resi dence on Rhode Island avenue. Ad- ! mirai Dewey, however, did not come ; to town today, but remained in Iiis j country home. Admiral Howison then ! went to the navy department. He had called upon Acting Secretary I Hackett last night and the only other I formal call required of him was to visit the judge advocate general, Capt. ? Lemly, which he did. I Some Remarks on the American Giri. By an Englishman. One hesitates to express sometimes one's opinion on many of the great questions and facts of life, and in this case, when the fact is so patent and clear: when one's pen is poised with a fine measure of praise in it, yet we halt, feeling we cannot deal ont such fair justice and rightful honor as fits the present case. In this vast country, where a hun? dred miles is a toy in. the sight of rail? roads, where the conditions and the opportunities and the ceaseless press? ing toward the mark of a higher civil? ization is dismayed at nothing, we pause in reverence. For side by side with the material development which looks before and after with such care? ful eyes there is one thing which has outstripped it, leaving it lost in the receding distance. In womanhood the American girl has caused the eclipse of nations. In a universe of great planets she has arisen as another planet and the rest are as little stars shedding bravely their fitful little lights, their tiny beams before a greater radiance. When we have counted out the sum of human frailties and detected the smallness of our greatness and the greatness of our smallness, too, as we march through life : with the steady grace of an ever abiding dignity, we can confess with an open and contrite heart that it is not manhood which soars, but womanhood. No country in the world possesses such noble women as America. None can show their equals in dauntless character and in that fine freedom and clear vision of what life is and what it is not. The problem of sex and the strong law of attraction lose some of its worse powers when the artificiality, that lays its hand so heav? ily in other countries, has been re? moved. In many ways this artificiality is one of the worst evils possible. By a smug hypocrisy it assures us with honied\oice that "allis well," but beneath its breath is the worldly smile which knows so many things-the bitter things that break down faith and rend the veils of holy imaginings. But here, where lite moves on such lusty wings, social conditions as is na? tural feel the influence, the pomp and the circumstance of it. And the law, the righteous law, is that women are not looked down upon as a pleasant toy to pass away the shining hours, but by the best men they are looked up to. Such men realize they are standing before the greate presences -the great pr?sences which can make of life no small and shallow thing, but can mold it nearer to the heart's desire. Only in America is it possible to achieve a great friendship between a man and a woman, because every woman has not that most foolish belief that every man is a possible husband. The close companionship which is practical invites the sympathy and understanding that yield the rich har? vest of true comradeship with that precise touch of reverence which a man cari render to a woman, but which is so rare between a man and a man. The inevitable difference which exists in the temperaments of a man and a woman meet, not on the super? ficial ground built by the artificial for? mulas of other countries, but on that serener ground where the winds blow free and strong as a summer breeze on the levels of the Atlantic. It is here where the clear, whole? some sanity of the American girl stands as a goodly contrast to others. Not for her the maudlin neuroticism, when, so to express it, the love nerves are stricken with a morbidness that marks one of the generation of degen? erates, but the clean, healthy view of life with commandments of her own, for the crash of their breaking one may listen without avail. Her originality of mind, her grasp of things and the greatness with which she uses her power, make her not merely fit to be companions of men, but leaders of them also. Exact? ly where the English girl fails she rises triumphant by virtue of a finer intuition of a deeper insight into the meaning of things. "Into the meaning of things!'' This is the revelation she sees; this is what makes her the most attractive and the most spiritual woman in a wide world, because it is that atten? tive adjusting of the spiritual and the physical which produces the most beautiful of characters. It is the rec? ognition that after all the heart and soul blending with a fine accord can make vaster music than one devoid of the other : that wc are all wondrous kin in our humanity, but if we have sorrows let them be noble and let our joys be noble, to. To cross out fal<e emotion, to have no dealings with common trivialities, this the Ameri? can girl seems to hold more strongly than others. To those who love to run riot with spurious opinions, who love to rend a great country with studied invective. I would simply say. "do you know an American girl." Wi nburg, Orange River Colony, Sept. 9. Barker's column has returned here front a 160 mile march through the Senekal district. The soldiers were astonished to find green wheat fields everywhere, no troops, having visited that region since December, so the Boers had time to plough and sow. They retreated to the mountains on the approach of the British, who cap? tured 100 men. women and children, enormous quantities of grain and 1,500 head of cattle. Buffalo, X. V., Sept. 12. "We have not sufficient evidence to warrant the holding of Kinma Goldman," said Dist riet Attorney Penney this after? noon just after In- liad a conference with Superintendent Bull. "We have not prepared any papers and of course, have sen; none on. Neither do we in? tend to prepare anyextrad i tion papers. Von may say on our present evidence we cannot hold the Goldman woman and no extradition {tapers will be pre? pared today. " Saste Fe. X. M.. Sept. li'. Antonio Maggio, tlie alleged anarchist, has bern taken from Silver City to Albo querque. lb' w.-ts cross-examined, l>ut refused to divulge anything upon the subject of the president's assassina tion, although witnesses were presen 1 to testify that he repeatedly predicted that the president .would be ;iss.".ssi nated before Oct. L He was bound over for hearing on the charge of con? spiracy to murder. HUBBARD'S COTTON LETTER. New York, Sept. ll.-European mar? kets paid more attention to the offers and the south than to the steadiness of the American market, and came disappointing in tone tobe followed by a decline. Receipts are comparatively i light, representing the lateness of the I crop in the Atlantic, and the disposi? tion of Texas to hold on account of the disaster to the crop in that State. A large purchase of print cloths in Fall River at full prices cleared that mar? ket of the surplus stock which had been pressing for sale. Weather con? ditions continue favorable for the development of the crop. European selling orders furnished the contract which were bought by the local trade who took for a reaction abroad from the depression of today, and some in? vestment buying on Mr. Ellison's es? timate that at present prices ship? ments would consume 11,000,000 bales of American cotton. The undertone, however, was not confident. Hubbard Bros. & Co. Queer Form of Hysteria. Dr. Dimopoulos, a medical practi? tioner of the town of Kutahla, in Asia Minor, sends to a Smyrna journal par? ticulars of an ' 'epidemic" among women of that town, which has proba? bly no parallel in modern experience. About three years ago a young woman became subject to a form of hiccough like the crow of a cock, which resisted treatment : soon after a second began to hiccough like a cat mewing, and in six months there were sixty women in the town affected with what may be described as animal hiccoughs, ex? ceedingly varied. Braying, barking and sounds like those made by the fox are included in the list. Dr. Dimopolous says that to be in a room among a number of those women was like an' experience of the forest or a menaegrie. Some men are affected, but the victims are mostly women, which is intelligible if the doctor's theory is correct, that the disease, for which he vouches, is a form of imita? tive hysteria.-Pall Mail Gazette. An Economical Dog. It is not often that a dog will be found showing as much intelligence as the pet of Miss Mary Owen, of Xo. 30 North 9th street. This dog believes in economy in the home and was not slow, the other day, in acting upon his belief. There was a visitor at the Owen residence who met great favor in the eyes of the family pet. The dog made friends with the guest immedi? ately and stayed by her side during her visit to receive caresses. Just as the visitor was preparing to leave the thoughtful animal decided that his new friend should be rewarded for her caresses, so excusing himself with a bark, 'he left the room. In a short time he returned with a basket con? taining peaches. Straight to the vis? itor went* the dog and placed the bas? ket upon the sofa beside her. The guest accepted the canine's treat and selected two fine peaches from the basket. The dog then picked up the basket, but instead of carrying it away stood there and whined. Neither hostess nor guest could tell what was the matter, but the canine soon en- ! lightened them. Releasing the basket he jumped upon the sofa beside the guest and, taking one of her peaches, dropped it back with the others. Then he picked up the basket and carried it into the kitchen.-St. Joseph, Mo., News. The crime of wife desertion is a growing one among the negroes and is an evil that should be abated by some more stringent legislation. As it is here now the penalty does not fit the crime and the grade of the offense ought to be raised to measure up some? where to the seriousness of the offense. The legislature of Minnesota has raised it to the grade of a felony punishable by imprisonment in the penitentiary for not less than one nor more than three years with a provision for sus? pension of sentence if the husband gives a bond for the support of his wife and family. That is a wise law for it enables the courts to enforce their jurisdiction over the culprits by means of a requisition upon the gov? ernor of any State to which he may go. As it is here now a man has only?j to cross the Savannah river and he is safe and his family is left to get along as best they can or perhaps to become a public charge. Close akin to this is the crime of wife beating, for which there is no adequate punishment pro? vided now. There is but one penalty that, fits that crime, and that is the whipping posr. A man who is so de? graded as to beat his wife ought to be strung up and punished in kind. Nothing would deter him so much as letting bim feel how it is himself Anderson Mail. The proposed combination of the bituminous coal interests of Ohio, Pennsylvania. West Virginia. Illinois and Kentucky, it is noted, would put under a single management mines that will produce 150.000,000 tons of the total of about '210.000,000 tons of that kind ol'coal in the year 1901 ; about th ree- iou rt hs of all the bituminous coal mined in the United States. It leaves out for the present CO, 000,000 tons mined in the south and in Mis? souri, Iowa and Kansas and the Trans Missouri States, but will include them a little later. Truly wise states and smaller districts in this part of the country will do well to begin to take care of the remnant of their standing timber, if only for fuel purposes. They will pay smartly for their neglect if they do not. C. F. Dill of Greenville, President of the South Carolina game protective association, calls attention to the fact that the game laws impose a tine of $10 or 30 da vs in jail for killing bull bats. Mr. Karl Thornwell of Fort Mill was in town last Friday ami Saturday. ?

Beyer, chief surgeon at the Charles? town navy yard, returned from his visit to Admiral Sampson this morn? ing. He said the Admiral's condition was about the same as when he left the yard. He would net siate whether the Admiral would attend the Court of In? quiry or if he would return to the yard to take up his duties. A Bear in Lancaster. Lancaster Ledger, Saturday : There is some excitement in the Primus sec? tion over the fact that a very large bear was seen by Mr. J. D. Hinson near his home last Tuesday evening. He followed it some little distance into the woods and fired several shots from his pistol at it, to which it paid no attention. It was going in a kind of fox trot and did not quicken his gait. Mr. Hinson and some of his neighbors tried to track it to its hid? ing place the next morning, but soon lost the track in the woods. SHOOTING l?**D ARLINGTON. Darlington, Sept. 10.- John Odom shot Luther Jones at the oil mill this afternoon. Odom is in jail, having been taken up by the police and afterwards turned over to the sheriff. Odom made an attack on the mother of Jones and badly hurt her, when Jones came to the help of his mother and was shot with duck shot in the leg. The report from the wound is that it is a serious one. London, Sept. IL-The Marquis An? glesey was robbed of jewels valued at 30,000 pounds sterling which were taken from a room at "Walsingham house while he was at the theatre last evening. Washington, Sept. H.-Senator Mc Laurin of South Carolina called on General Gillespie, acting secretary of war and Mr. Hackett acting secretary of the navy today to secure their coopera? tion in having the government exhib? its at the Pan-American exposition transfered to the coming exposition at Charleston. S. C. Both officials assur? ed the senator that they would be glad to comply with his requests as to the exhibits of their respective depart? ments and that they would do all they could to make the South Carolina ex? position successful. Dallas, Texas, Sept. IL-White men raided the negro district of Decatur, Texas, last night, terrorized the black residents and ordered them to leave town. Many negroes are departing. Manila, Sep. IL-A force of bri? gands recently attacked and plundered the town of Castillina, Island of Ne? gros, which was guarded by Filipino police. Three of the latter were killed and five wounded. Troops are now searching for the brigands in the mountains. The State against Mrs. Mattie Hughes for mruder is still on the docket, although a mistrial has oc? curred three times, and there is hard? ly a chance of conviction or acquittal in the next five years. Each trial is said to have cost the county a thou? sand dollars, and it would seem that enough has been invested in that di? rection. Judge Gary yesterday filed his decis? ion in the case of certain citizens who protested against Sidney park being used for a terminal by the Seaboard Air Line railroad. He holds that the railroad had no right to the property by condemnation, and that the neigh? boring property owners are entitled to damages.-The State. Food Changed to Poison.
