Columbia. Sept. 12.?The Southern
railway has completed Its repair work
of the damage done by the recent
flood and all trains are now being run
as usual over all lines.
Train No. J* was the flr.-t one to
make the trip over the road to Spar
tanburg. leaving out at 7.05 yester?
day morning. This line has given the
Southern most trouble of any and ll
required a large force of hands to
rush the work of repair so as to open
the line as quickly as possible.
The work was completed Thursday
night and trains were run regularly
yesterday. This means that the trip
can be made direct to Spartanburg
and way points now without going
around by Charlotte as has been the
case since the flood.
The Wateree trestle was put In good
condition,. the work being completed
yesterday and trains will be operated
to Camden and 8umter. The train for
Sumter leaves at 7.55 this morning,
making connection at Klngvllle for
Sumter. The train for Camden leaves
out at 10.50.
The opening of these two lines com?
pletes the repair work on the South
era road.
TUT FOR DIAMONDS.
Mow to Tell When a Stone Is Genuine
or Not,
"Few persons." writes a London
jeweler, "are willing to trust to their
own knowledge and observation In
purchasing diamonds. Even pawn?
brokers, who spend their lives in han?
dling precious stones, are often cheat?
ed. Although to become an expert Is
the development of a special gift
through years of experience, there
are a few simple tests which will aid
a buyer of diamonds.
"One test Is to prick a needle hole
through a card and look at the hole
through the doubtful stone. If the
latter Is spurious two holes will be
seen, but If It Is a diamond only one
hole will be visible. Every Imitation
stone which resembles a diamond
gives a double reflection, while the
genuine diamond's reflection is sin?
gle. This Is a delicate test, because It
Is difficult to see even a sharp and
well defined object through a dia?
mond. The single refraction of the
gem also allows one to determine an
uncertain stone. If the finger Is plac?
ed behind it and viewed through the
stone with a watchman's glass th*
grain of the skin will be plainly seen
If the stone Is not a diamond. But if
it is a diamond the grain of the skin
will not he distinguished at all."

Washington, Sept. 8.?John Wesley
Galnes of Tennessee arrived in town
this morning, a little crestfal'en be?
cause the pOWdtf trust, the tobaco
trust, the express trust and a host of
other allied monopolies defeated him
for renomination to congress, where
he has sat, or rather stood, for 13
years and where he was standing
fighting monopoly when his former
law clerk took the stump against
him, but still on the warpath and the
war paint has not faded from his
cheek. I met him by chance on the
street and walked up to the congress
campaign committee rooms with him
when he told me a'l about how It hap?
pened. But he isn't dead yet, nor
yet does he sleep. One of the most
useful men In the house, he is now
turning his attention to the work of
the campaign, to help elect other men
If he cannot elect himself.
Mr. Oalnes is very hopeful about
the national situation, hut he fears
the money power, which shows evi?
dence of raising millions of dollars to
corrupt the electorate and defeat
Bryan. 'T tell you," he said, his half
along with his voice and the Inevit?
able forefinger, beginning to rise, "if
the people of this country knew what
you and I know, they would put cay?
enne pepper in their shoes and go
out with their guns.
"I have recently oome from the
Middle West, and those people out
there are waking up to the situation,
and I'll tell you, too, what is the is?
sue In the campaign and what is go?
ing to e'ect Bryan, if anything does,
guarantee of bank deposits. A man
in Oklahoma told me the other day,
a Republican, taht I asked him why,
vote for Bryan. I asked him why,
and he told me It was on account of
the bank deposit measure. "I had a
bank balance of a little over $2.000 aj
short while ago, and I got a certificate
which read "guaranteed by the State
of Oklahoma," as the faw requires In
this State, and I found my credit good
for the full amount even where I was
not known, for they told he that
though I was three days from tho
bank where my money was my check
was good even If the bank shou'd
fall.' "
The guaranty of bank deposits
which the State of Oklahoma makes,
according to its constitution, is the
most popular thing in Oklahoma, de?
clares Mr. Qalnes, and he says the
whole West is being told about it
and is taking hold with enthusiasm.
"Why," said he, "one bank In Okla?
homa recently failed. On the doors
of the bank the next morning there
was a notice that the deposits in the
bank were guaranteed by the State
and that all depositors shou'd call
and get their money. And they did
call, though not a panic, not even in
a hurry or In haste, for every man
knew his money was safe. One man
did not call until 46 days afterwards
and his money was paid, every cent
of It. That kind of thing will posi?
tively prevent panics. And the won?
derful increases in Oklahoma is attri?
buted by the bankers ? to this law
a' one./
Mr. jOalnes read a letter from one
of these bankers which cited instan?
ces of burled money coming up out
of its hiding place to be deposited in
the bank, and other indices of confi?
dence In the banks on the part of
those who usually hide and hoard
their money, keeping It from circula?
tion.?The State.
NO REASON FOR IT.
When Sumter Citizens Show the Cer?
tain Way Out.
There can be no just reason why
any reader of this will continue to
suffer the tortures of an aching back,
the annoyance of urinary disorders,
the danger of diabetes, of any kidney
ills when relief is so near at hand and
the most positive proof given that
they can be cured. Read what a
Sumter citizen says:
E. W. Vogel, living on S. Main
street. Sumter, S. C, says: "I have
I been suffering from kidney trouble
and severe pains through the small of
my back for several years and when?
ever I would attempt to stoop, my
suffering would be inte.drled. My back
became very weak and on several dif?
ferent occasions I was forced to give
up my work. My family physician
treated me without giving me any re?
lief from the awful pains in my back.
I then tried every known remedy on
tho market, but still failed to find re?
lief. I read a testimonial regarding
Doan'l Kidney Pills and was so much
impressed that 1 procured a box at
the China Drug Store. After using
the contents of this box I was re?
stored to good health and heartily
recommend Doan'l Kidney Pills to

QUARANTINE RULES FOR CAT- 1
TLE.
Secretary Love Announces That
Clemson College Will Assist.
Columbia, Sept. 12.?The eradica- j
tlon of the Texas fever tick is being -
vigorously pushed In this state now
by both the State and federal authori?
ties. Formerly there were only four
counties above the quarantine line,
but this year the lino has been
brought much further south and now
includes 12 counties, and these coun?
ties always send large exhibits of
cattle to the State fair. So the move?
ment to and from the fair has been
the subject of much concern to both
the officers of the fair and the ex?
hibitors themselves.
The officers wish the exhibit and
have been afraid that the quarantine
laws would Injure the cattle show and
the exhibitors were afraid to move
their cattle because of the fines that
might be imposed and that the return
shipment might be prevented, but all
this has been overcome through the
kindness of the State veterinarian, Mr.
M. Ray Powers of Clemson col?
lege. In a letter to the secretary of
the fair, he says that his office will
look after all cattle and see that no
one is caused any trouble or inconve?
nience.
The following letter has been sent
out by Mr. A. W. Love secretary
of the fair society, to all the former
exhibitors above the quarantine line:
"In regard to the movement of
cattle from above the State quaran?
tine line to the South Carolina State
fair for exhibition purposes, beg
to say that I am in receipt of a let?
ter from Dr. M. R. Powers, State
veterinarian, Clemson College, in
which he gives permission for the
movement under certain conditions.
He will write you fully as to these
conditions and requirements, which,
briefly, are as follows:
"In the counties of Oconee, Pick
ens, Greenville and Anderson, per?
mission must be obtained from the
secretary of agriculture, Washington,
' D. C, and all cattle Inspected by a
federal Inspector.
"In the counties of Abbeville,
Greenwood, Laurens, Union, Spartan
burg, Cherokee, Chester and York,
permission must be obtained from Dr.
Powers and the cattle inspected by
some one from his office.
"There will be an inspector on the
fair grounds to look after all ship?
ments and to see that the law Is com?
plied with.
"If there is any other information
you need, kindly write to either Dr.
Powers or myself and we will gladly
furnish it.
"I trust that you will have a large
exhibit for us this year."

Profitable Farming.
Much farming is not profitable to the farmer. Sometimes the
fault is in the land, but usually it is in the man. Good manage?
ment and proper fertilization will make a profit for the farmer on.
pratically any land in Sumter County.
Butthe profit is made with greater ease and there is more of it
when the land is fertile and well drained. I am offering in a tract
of 190 acres, 120 cleared, seven miles from Sumter and one mile from
Oswego, a farm which comes up to the requirements to make the
greatest profit with the greatest ease. It has a nice seven room
dwelling, ample out buildings, several tenant houses, and other things
that make the farmer and his laborers comfortable while the soil is
doing its part of the work. School and railroad facilities are within
a mile, buch property is not often offered on the market, and if you
are looking for a nice farm this is your chance.
