WEDGEFIELD.
Wedgelield, April 13.?An account
of the raid and destruction of the
distilling plant in the "Dark Corner"
of Manchester has already appeared
in oyur paper. To one not acquaint?
ed with the facts it would seem like
there was great excitement in the
said place on Saturday night, but
when you realize that there wi re
two revenue officers and three special
deputies who returned with only one
darky, an agent of the moonshiners,
It looks like a case of cold feet. 1
think I should have been ashamed to
have gone into Sumter with one
helpless negro, and left those behind
without making an attempt to arrest
them, who have been maintaining a
nuisance for that part of the county
for three years.
There is hardly a possibility that
this was only lately known by the
proper county officials, and it. is a
certainty, for 1 am reliably informed
that the revenue officers have known
that the said still was In operation.

Some Notable Achievements hi
Eleventh Hour Work.
ONE OF LANDSEER'S SPURTS.
The Masterpiece the Great Paints
Produced In a Few Hours?Remark?
able Records Made by Some of the
Famous Masters of Music.
Some astounding teats lu eleventh
hour work, especially lu the musical
and artistic branches, have beeu
achieved by the great artists of the
world.
Sir Bdwiu Landteer had promised a
picture for the spring exhibition of
the British institution in 1645, but on
the day before the exhibition was tu
be opened all the hanging committee
had received was an empty frame,
which was duly hung in the position
of honor.
As the prospect of receiving a pic?
ture for the frame seemed to the com?
mittee to be slight, a member thereof
weut to see the artist. He found
Landseer standing iu front of a bare
canvas.
??That's the picture 1 promised," said
the great man. pointing to the canvas.
"I have not touched it yet. but 1 will
send it to the Institution tonight."
And he was as good as his word. A
few hours later the completed picture
was delivered and may be seen today
in the National gallery. This wonder?
ful work of half a dozen hours was
none other than the universally ad?
mired "Cavalier's Pets."
Leander, the famous painter, is ca?
pable of remarkably rapid woil: Upon
seeing him leave his rooms early in
the morning with a canvas on his
back the neighbors of the great artist
used to exclaim. "There goes Leander
off to paint his daily picture." Al?
though this may have been an exag?
geration, it is a well known fact that
on several occasions' the academician
produced n large picture within a few
hours.
Leander has a formidable rival in
the matter of hasty work in Solomon
Solomon. This artist painted an ad?
mirable life size portrait of Israel
Zangwill within the period of rive
hours.
In the realm of music there may be
cited many Instances of extraordinarily
Quick work. Oscar Ilammerstein's
record of a comic opera In one act.
words and music, composed In one
night, is an example.
One of the most remarkable bits of
orchestration ever written, the over?
ture to "Otelio." was scored by Rossini
? in onlj twenty-four hours,
i Bl Arthur Sullivan roinposed the
brilliant epilogue of too "Golden Log
? end" i-- tot same space of time, lie
s:j down hi i) o'clock one oveulng to
coxnpo&o iL.?., overture i<j "lolunlbe
j and did not rise from his desk until
the last note was written at 7 on the
following morning, while the overture
to "The Yeoman of the Guard" men
pied him no more thou twelve hours
both to compose aud score.
It is told of Donizetti that he wrote
the instrumentation of an entire opera
within thirty hours. On the morning
in which Rossini's "Gazza Ladra" was
to be produced not a single note of the
overture had beeu written, and the
manager was in despair. He sought
out the indolent composer, locked him
In one of the rooms of La Scala and
declared he s', uld have neither food
nor freedom until the overture was
completed. Rossini set to work with a
will and to such purpose that the
music was written and rehearsed be?
fore the evening performance.
Mozart was another genius who fre?
quently needed the spur of eleventh
hour work. Though at 1 in the morn?
ing not a note of the overture to "Don
Giovanni" had been set down, yet Mo?
eart finished it before he went to the
1 breakfast table at his usual hour. Dur?
ing the long hours consumed by this
task it is said that the mus'.can's wife
kept him awake by reading fairy
stories to him.
One of the fastest composers that
ever lived was Trotere, the writer of
songs. Some of the composer's feats
verge on the marvelous. It is said, f ?r
example, that be actually wrote the
score of "In Old Madrid" and had
; dropped it into the letter box within
: eight minutes of the time ho had taken
up his pen. This would be remarkable
merely as showing his dexterity and
agtiity, to say nothing of the labor of
the composition itself.
One of Schubert's friends fells a
story indicating that composer's ra
pldlty of workmanship. He had left
Sc hubert absorbed In Goethe's ballad
"The Erl King." On his return In it few
minutes he found the musician swift
ly putting on paper the notes inspired
by the poem, and within an hour there
had been composed that great soul' th i
world bos admired ever since.?Edwin
Tarrisse in Chicago Tribune.
Graveyard Marriages.
A strange custom prevails among Q
Certain tribe in the Caucasus When a
single young man dies some one calls
upon a bereaved parent who has car
ried to the grave a marriageable
daughter In the course of a year and
says: "Your son is sure to want a
wife. I'll give yon m\ daughter, and
you shall deliver to me the marriage
portion In return." A friendly offer or
this description is never rejected, and
the two parties soon com* to terms as
to the amount of the no.vry. which
varies according to ihe advantages
possessed by the girl in her lifetime
Cases have been Known where the
young man's father has given as much
as ihlrt) cows lo secure a dead wife
MONSTER WHALES.
One That Swallowed Whole a Shark
Fifteen ^eet Long.
Frank T. Bullen, tbe Doted writer of
lee taJee, in one of his lectures waid
that in New /enhind he owe aaW a
whale opened and there were found
in its itomucb a number of ash which
must simply have swum down its
throat, and among them waa a ?bark
fifteen feet long und tune feet round
The huge Greenland whale waa de?
scribed. Mr. Bullen asked his au
dlence to imagine ;i tnoostei of 230
tons and told how such a one was
taken on a voyage in which he took
part enough whalebone being taken
out of his head to pay a good dividend
on the voyage. For six months In tlie
year this particular kind of whale.
i"hich was the most helpless of all.
\s,J. a life of alarums and excursions,
for he was always being chased.
A third kind of whale, the hump?
backed whale, was shown In a picaire
Jumping from the water, and Mr. Bul?
len explained that this was no Indi?
cation of joy In life. They were, in
fact, if not driven out of their minds,
certainly driven out of the water by
parasites adhering to their bodies.
This particular whale was greatly de?
voted to its young, and if a man hap?
pened to kill a calf be needed all his
ingenuity to escape from the mother.
On one occasion fifty-two boats went
after whales in the bay of California
and by accident a calf was killed. In
one hour the pareDt destroyed fifty of
the fifty-two boats, killing a number
of men, and then sailed out to sea
without a scratch.
BEN BUTLER'S BLUFF.
It Was Well Worked and Completely
Fooled General Bingham.
General John A. Bingham was a
member of the military tribunal that
l tried Mrs. Surratt and the Lincoln as
I sassluatlon conspirators.
After the trial In the subsequent de
| bates in the house General B. F. But
I ler frequently charged that the com
j mission had arrived at an unjust ver?
dict and had convicted an innocent
woman. In a memorable debate he
boldly proclaimed that if the contents
of a diary which had been fcund on
the dead body of J. Wilkes Booth were
' ever made public it would disclose the
! fact that It contained the proof of
j Mrs. Surratt's Innocence, which proof
? had been infamously suppressed by the
! commission. When General Bingham
j made a movement as though he would
i repel such an accusation. Butler dra
' matlcally drew a memorandum book
from his breast pocket and held it
aloft, but did not utter a word. Bing?
ham naturally supposed that Butler
had a Cup} JI a ?u.:ry \?; n as lie uau

i FOX HUNTING IN ENGLAND.
It Is More Than a Sport; It Is a Sort
of Religion.
In England sport is not only a rell
j gion; It is the religion. If a man is a
I good sportsman he need not be any
; thiDg else. It may seem hyperbolical
' to describe fox hunting as a religion
' and the fox as a deity, but it is a bare,
j bald exactituda The p-je fox hunt
, ing sportsman exhibits all the attri?
butes of the devotee, the fanatic, the
martyr. He is ready to die for his
faith. I am sure he would cheerfully
allow himself to be burned alive rath?
er than bunt a bag of aniseed. His
friends would cue nim dead If they
suspected him of treasor. to the pure
Ideal of fox hunting. His clubs would
j refrigerate bim. He would be a mark
' ed man. He would be a pariah, an
: outcast, a bounder, a.i out aid >r.
Tbe power of the caste of fox hunt
era is as formidable as the power of
' the various Indian castes. It is a
' mightier engine than the law, for it is
driven by public opinion. The county
would ostracize the wretch caugat in
! the act of violating the fox hunting
code. His career would be ended.
Never more could he hold up his head.
He would be a leper. The taint of
aniseed would hang about him for?
ever. ? James Douglass in London

"One evening," Raid the admiral,
"this prematurely old, thin, worn out
