Official Bondk.

The attehtion of Governor Ohsfi.
herlain has been drawn to the fact
that many county treasurerso and
auditors are serving without sufficient
official bonds. H. has directed the
comptroller-geurfal 10 n9tify suSh
officers thas striot compliance With
the law will be necessary on their
part if they desire to continue in
It 'ir respective posi:iors. He also
, lures that the suretios shall justify .
The act Of March 10, 1914, req1ires
the auditor Of Charleston county to
give bond of $4,000 R,chland,
Beaufort and hbbeville, $500 ; ali
the others, $4,000. The treasursf
Of Charleston gives $50, 900 Rioh-

900 (; and all Che others $50 1000.
We understand that a close scrutiny
will be made Of the character Of the

iohed Spanish house on Vorgara street
in the Cityof Mexico, by an Ameri-

is now seventy-eigh. years years old.
Ills hair, which is thin, has
not yet turned gray, and his eyes d aarre
still black and ashing. His hearing

be'Poor, HIS surroundings are comfor-

ntfers from cutarrh3 and that the at.
mo pherc Of the City Of Mexico does
not agree with him. His country.
men hate him, and he does not soc
many Of them, keeping closely within
doors. He says that the air of the
coast, where he was born, agrees
with Eim better than that of the

HOge and MCGOwan.

We are gratilied to loarn that
Gen. McGowau will contest tho elec.
tion of Solomon i. IIogo as member
OF Congress from the Third District.
The majority claimed by Hoge is
3,558, but there was repeating by
the no!roes and Intimidation Of the
whites IN nearly every county, and
Ne have no d.ubt that Geu. Me
Gowan 'cccived majority Of tAc
legal votes. Besides this, the acts
of Congress relating to representu.
tion provide that each district shall
be composed of contiguous territory =,
and the County of Kichlaud, wh.oh
the State Legislature put in tie
Third District, is not contiguous to
any other county in the district.
The vote Of Richland must be 10.
jectod by Congress, and that county
alone gave lIcgo 2,3l5 majority.
We must dissent, however, from tho
opinion Of our correspondent, Nine.
ty-Six, that a Democratic Congress
having the power to do so, should
seat Gen. MCGOWAN, as llpge wa,
seated by the R,dical Congress, in
1853. Mr.. Reed, tho opponent of
1lose il 1868, was lawfully elected !,
and it was grave ofleucs uud Il
gricvous wrong to exclude him. But
Democrats cannot aif,rl to play
the ra>cally p:anks which are a m,t
ter OF course with Radicals, and if
an investigati"n, fair aud ,hor"ugh,
shows that HOPE was really elected.
he must have his seat. just such
practices as that of rejecting law
fnliy elected candidate on account of
his politics have put tho National
Rerublicans in deep mourning, and,
il tha Democrats were foolish enough
to follow their example, they would
soon and properly be thrust back
into political obscurity.-Nc,vs and

Gen. Sheridan was intending to 20 to
Cuba in II fow Weeks, and this trip
South Is only anticipating time, for
after short stay in h ew Orleans he
will sail for Cuba. His immediate
work in Louisiana is to conserve the
peace, and he will not remove any

aft .irs there, unless 1t is absolutely
necessary to accomplish that object.

Artfui Breton Girl.

You often in Paris meet the Bretou
lads, and INSTANTLY recognize them BY
the out Of their hair. The girls
howevor little, all wear white oapf
that conceal every atom of hair,
which, together with,their wide col.
lars, give them a very quaint, old
fashioned appaarsnoe. The girls a,o
very proud Of thcs: h,rring, wide
collars, and wli"kio or crease
would be very distressing.
But" said our artist aud con,paq.
non ssde coyage, "you would think
these pretty girls had no lovers, for
their collars are never rumpled, and
1t Is generally conceded that lover
in the rural districts always implies
tumbled curls and collars. How do
you s'pose they manage it 1T
"Do without the lover"
"Hy no means. They just clip
their hands undcr their collars and
turn them up like hedge about their
oars. The custom has been handed
down from mother to daughter until
the most uusophisticatcd young girl
of sixteen knows how to flip up her
collar aud keep 1t smooth as we'll as

Adjusting the Harness TO Fit The Horse

Every part of harness should be
buckled up shorter or let out until
the harness fits the horse as nearly as
pair of boots that arc of proper size
for ons's feet. The collar should tit
cloecly, with space enough at the
bottom to admit mans hand. If
too large it has the bad effect of
drawing the shoulders together. On
no considerations should a team or
any work horse be compelled to
wear n martingA.e, as it draws his
head down and prevents him from
getting into all easy and natural po-
sition.
The check. rein may be used, bu@
only tight enough to keep the head
in Il natural position ana should
never be wound around the names.
See that the names arc buckled tight
enough at the top to bring the draft
irons at the proper point on one side
Of the collar. lftoo low, it not only
intcrferes with the action Of the
shoulders, but gives the collar an
uneven bearing. Caution should he
taken that The girth is not buckled
too tight, particularly on string teams,
for when the traces are straiyhtened
it has the tendency to draw the gir,h
against the belly and distress the
horse. a teauster should be educa
ted to harness horse correctly, as
this is sou ething that cannot ke
caught by writing.-N. Y. UcraM
