Food Adulteration. , , t "Xn alpure feod ease that wastakm q| from Philadelphia-to the supreme cwJ of Pennsylvania," aiya Public Pcflioj* "the plea was made tliat the law to nofl violated unless the quantity of for?irf| subetanoe in a food staple is sufficient tel injure health. The supreme court decision is that any poisonous ingredient,; whether in quantity to injure health or. not, is a violation of the statute. The cry goes up that this 'will affect 90 par cent of the stock of the average dealer.' If one-fifth of the merchandise sold for food contains poisonous ingredients, there is a startling necessity for active measures. The stupid plea that the poison is not enough in any one arthde to hurt the odhsumer indicates that the jrendor never gives enough thought to any aspect of the question but the pursuit of the nimble dime and nickel to learn the effect of the cumulative poisonings. Certainly when we hear from the trade itself that the practioe of mixing poison in food has attained a 20 per cent, prevalence, it it time for stafeneous suppression aimed with the most vigor at the manufacturers of such articles." In view of the above had you not better buy "Clifton" flour, a flour guaranteed pore by the Anii-Adulteration League? BuANsroRD MIL La. Oweasboro, Ky. A Bad Munaway Scrape. On last Sunday morning about ten o'clock Mr. Bert Gregory was driving along the Lock hart road some eight miles from town coming toward Union. Miss May Harris, daughter of Mr. G. C. Harris, was in the buggy with him. When not far {from home they met Mr. Will Dickerson and Miss Kate Brown in a buggy going to Mr. Harris' and Miss Harris decided to go back. Mrv Gregory turned the buggy and they started back. They hadnot gone far twfnr* t.ha mulA Wama W.W.m* mnA ran away. Miss Harris in trying to assist Mr, Gregory to hold the mule polled him |too far to the left and the boggy turned over in the ditch. Miss Karris fell out and so did Mr. Gregory. Both were caught and entangled in the wheels of the buggy and dragged some 160 yards, Mr. Gregory being dragged some fifty yards further than the young lady before they were thrown loose. Mr.1 Dickersen being behind and seeing the accident jumped from his buggy end ran to the young lady's assistance. When he got to her she was unoonsekma and limp. When he raised her her bead Ml to one side and he thought her neck wee broken. She, however, recovered consciousness in a few minutes. Her bsed and limbe were bruised and she said the whecf bad run over her spine, but it ia not thought that she sustained a serious hurt. It was almost a miraculous escape from death. Mr. Gregory was atao considerably bruised up but not seriously injured. The buggy was a new one but It was torn up badly. + - ? . ' Sabacribe for tha Timor, A DASTARDLY DEED. Young Lady Badly Injured by ? Rock Thrown into a Passenger Coach Saturday Night. Above Union. MARRIED AT GIBBES HOUSE. One of the most cowardly nets th?t we have heard ot recently was ih? rocking of the passenger train last Saturday night by some party or parties unknown as yet, but. it is sincerely hoped they will be run to earth. While the night passenger train from Spartanburg was some two miles from Union, coming at the rate of some thirty miles an hour, someone on ths left of the railroad, not far from the bend in the road this side of McKissioks, threw a largo rock which struck the frame work of the front window of the engineer's eab on the left, splintering the wood and almost knocking the window from Its hinges. Another and.another and still another was thrown at the train, one hitting the top of the train. Another crashed against the frame work between two windows of the coach and mashed a dent 6 inches long by one-fourth of an inch deep in the window frame. Three inches farther it would have entered the pen window and probably killed the oconpant of that seat. Tho other rock Iras more successful. It entered the open window and struck a young lady, Miss Lillie Byrd Pace, just behind the left ear cutting an agly gash and fraeturing the lower rim of the skull. The young lady was asleep when she was struck, her head leaning bac* against the seat, oaasing the stone to strike a glancing lick, saving her life beyond a doubt. She was rendered almost unconscious by the shook of the terrible blow, the blood spurted over her neck and clothing. Dr. Watson who was on the train came Immediately to her assistance and examined the wound. She did not know what had hurt her and it was pitiful to hear her ask what did they do it for, saying that she had never done anyone any harm In her life. Upon arrival at Union Dr. Watson ploked her up and carried her into the Gibbes house when other physioians soon arrived and she was given every possible attention, and everything possible was done by the hostess, Mis. Gibbes and several lady friends, for the comfort of the sufferer. When she was rational enough to talk ooaneotedly it was learned that she was Miss Lillie Byrd Pace, of Tryon, N. 0., and that she was on her way to Augusta, Ga., where she wu fce meet her afflanoed husband, Mr. Thomas A. Slzemore, of Washington, Qa. Thej were to be married and go on to Mr. Sizemore's home. Mr. Sizemore sent a colored woman np to Trjon to esoort Miss Pace to Augusta. The woman was riding in the coach ahead and did not know 'anything of the accident and was carried on to Colombia before she missed the young lady. The Paee family live two miles from Tryon and while efforts were made very little could be done that sight. Oa Sunday morning telephone and telegraph messages were sent to [both Mr. Sizemore and to her home. iMr, Sizemore was notified just in itime to catch the C. & W. C. for Spartanburg, where he joined Mrs. Pace and her son James, who were on their way to Union, and they all arrived on the night train. . It was at first thought the young lady had been shot as two reports had been heard by the passengers, but upon investigation we learned that the engine had run over two torpedoes. A posse of possibly 40 men with the sheriff and the blood bounds boarded the up freight and rode np to the point where the rocks were thrown and were put off. Tbey endeavored to And traoe of the rascals but could not do so as they had not gone through the flelde where the hounds could pick up the scent. THE MARRIAGE. It was found that Miss Pace had recovered sufficiently to sit up, by tha time her neonla arrival and couple decided to have the wedding ceremony performed in Union. Mon> day morning waa set for the time, and at 10:40 the eoaple stood up In the drawing room at the Gibbes House In the presence of some eight or ten witnesses and were made man and wife by Magistrate J. G. Hughes of Union. The bride was dressed in pure white and carried a bunch of pretty flowers in her left hand. After the ceremony they received the congratulations and good wishes of those present. The couple left on the night train for Mr. Sizemore's home in Washington, Ga., while Mrs. Faoe and her son returned on the afternoon train for their home at Tryon.

We evidenced the fact that she is a good woman, possessed of a sweet and lovable disposition, and was very appreciative of every little aot of kindness shown her by our good ladies. During her short etav in nnr no (Hat. ?K? made many warm frienda who earnestly wish for her an early recovery from her wound, and a long life of happiness. The rock that struck the young lady was picked up In the car by some one and It was large enough to have killed her Instantly if it had struck her fare in the temple. The rock that shattered the engineers window frame seemed to have broken, a piece of it was found on the running board larger than a man's fist. Every effort should be made to apprehend these rascals. Rocks have several times been thrown at the passenger trains near this place. A person who is so mean as to do such an act, when it is impossible for him to know who is going to be hit, is too mean to live, they should be hunted down if it takes a year to do it, and , we have little deubt they will be finally caught.
