The Orangeburg democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1879-1881, 1879-07-11

we're many ut the meeting who had
no corn in their corn houses, but de-
pended on the corn house of some
one else. He wanted all, while they
remained here, to live friendly with
their white fellow men. He had been
watching things for some time, and
the current in many respects has
changed during the last few years
from what it once was. He had not
come to make a political speech, but
sinnly to give the cololed people
goou advice, if they would take it.
He advised them to try to become
independent, and if they did not like
the present situation, they could go
elsewhere.
The next speaker introduced was
.Rev. Goosely, who stated that he
was from Canada, had lived there
many years, and on the first of next
October would leave for Kansas. If
any one wanted to 60 to that State
ne could be communicated with
through Dr.. Webster or D. A. Strah.
er and in this way obtain all the ne
cessary information before decision
was had to leave South Carolina.
This ended the spenking and the
celebration. Taking a birds eye
view of the whole matter the meeting
seemed TO be gotten up only and
solely in the interest Of DR.. Alonzo
Webster, and The burden of the
whole discussion was his famous let
ter in the New York Tribune. The
voters present did not seem to take
any stock in the meeting, no. one
leading colored man from the coun-
try had word to say nor did they,
so far as your reporter knows, ex-
press desire TO say any anything.
The speeches. were listened to and re-
ceived for what they were worth,
which was ut n heavy discount upon
the old issue Of Radical speeches.
The colored people are evidently
growing tired Of such nonsense, and
will have but little more of it, if their
wishes are consulted.
Now came the tug of war and the
din Of the battle could be distinctly
heard throughout the crowd. Men,
women and children wanted TO know
where the dinner was, but none could
tcll-not even scent of hams and
chickens could be bad from any di-
rection. Some said that Webster,
Mackey and Boliver were eating it
all up. 1t was given out at every
church that, Webster was going 20
give q Fourth of July dinner and
that all hands must come to eat it.
When we got here and asked for din
ner. behold the New York Tribune
and Webster's letter is given us in
stead which did not rest very well on
hungry stomacks. The crowd were
very much dissatisfied and many
went home mad as wet hens.
Resolutions were read and adopted
which could not be had. On motion
of DR.. Webster it vas resolved that
the resolutions be published in the
county papeis. BY-STANDER.

Strange Devotion.

A case sadly strange, and strange.
" sad, agitated ,ruckee this week.
One Of our promising young men Is
involved, and with him a woman OF
the town. The young man was hon
ored, respected, fortunate in business,
and only recently was promoted by
his employers. His strange affection
for the Cyprisn was so strong that
one night last week the two left
Truckee together with the intention
of going to Oregon to reside. A
warrant was sworn out by parties in
Truckee, and the two we're brought
back on charge of larceny. There
was no evidence against the young
man, but the woman was convicted
of the crime and sentenced to a fine
Of one hundred and six dollars.
Firm in his belief that she was inno-
cent, the lover remained faithful,
raised the money here and there
among his friends, paid her fine, and
procured her release. The two lett
town again Monday night. They
propose going to Oregon, where they
will settle down and pass the remain
der of their days as man and wife.
When importuned by his friends to
leave the woman to her fate, when
urged to allow her to 60 to Jail and
serve out her sentence, when prom
ised his position and all needful ~.
sistsnce If he would forsake his COM
panion, he replied with tears in his
eyes: "No, love her, and if my
poor old mother we're here and asked
me to leave her l could not COM
ply" Such devotion is rare, and in
view of all the circumstances, there
is a touch Of the heroic. What the
sequel Of this romance may be Is
something we shall be anxious to
learn.-Tuscarora Times Review.

brakesmen must also close the gates

signal is given by the conductor. /"
The conductor is supposed to watch
the brake.men and get all necessary
information from them in regard to
their readiness, by signal or other
wise, before he gives the signal. Con-
ductors and brakesmen are especially
epjo,ned to permit no passengers to
get On or off the cars while they are

SNATCHED FROM DEATH.
Starting Elevated Railway Trains
Before the Gates are Closed.

St0r ttuB EACvotCu 1ouWSy
Before the Gates are Closed.
Miss Paine of East Seventy. nrst
street visited q friend in Brooklyn on
Sunday last. On her return, in the
afternoon, she attempted to get on an
elevated railroad train at the Fulton
street station. The gate was open,
but the train was already moving.
She put one foot on the Car platform,
but not allowing for its forward mo-
ton, she WAS whirled around and she
lost her balance. The folds of a
heavy seslskin cloak prevented her
from grxsping the rail attached to the
car. A stranger, who had stepped
On board Immediately in front Of her,
turned in time to sec her peril, and
clutched her by the arm just a. she
was falling backward between the
station platform and the moving car.
He nearly lost his own balance, but
he was able to draw her on the car
unframed, but much frightened.
The particulars of another narrow
escape on tho Metropolitan road, yes
terday noon, very similar in the %.
ture of the peril incurred and its
cause was published. A four-car
train from up town stopped at the
Blocker street station. Two ladies.
one with an infant In her arma and
one leading little girl. wanted to
get of, but were compelled to wait
until a number Of persons at the sta
ton crowded into the car. When at
last they found opportunity to pass
out, the signal 10 start had been
given, but the gate was yet open.
The little girl was in advance OF the
lady who had been leading her. They
were on the rear platform OF the sec
ond car. The little girl had enc foot
on the station platform when the
train started. She was thrown down
between the car and the platform,
which are about six or eight inches
spsrt. and she would have been
ground between them had not man
on the station platform seized her in
time. In the meantime the mother
was drawn back by some one on the
car platform, with whom she strug.
gled violently. She did not know ct
this time whether her child had been
saved or not. The train was backed
up. When at last she was allowed
10 get of she clasped her rescued
child In her arms and kissed her
over and over again. Tho Post adds
that tho passengers expressed con-
dsmnstion Of the reckless manner 10
which the train was started, and that
the brakesmen refused to say whether
they had instructions to close the
gates before giving the signal to the

A MISTAKEN IDEA.

Keeping the Hair snort On Injuri.
Gus Practice-An Excuse for
Those who Part Their Hair in
the Middle.
Were the principles which regu.
late and affect the growth Of hair bet
ter understood, badness would DO
rare. The opinion of great many
men now appears to be, that the short
err hair 10 the better II will flourish.
Acting on this mistaken idea, when-
ever any thinness Of the hair is per-
ceived, It Is Immediately shorn close
to the scalp. This operation aggra-
Yates instead Of removing the incip.
lent badness. TIE proper thing TO
do under such circumstances 1t to al
low the hair to grow long. Let any.
one inclined to doubt the truth Of
this assertion, look at the Indian or
the Chinaman. Cases of badness are
extremely rare among those races,
and the uninterrupted growth OF the
hair is 10 be attributed to the fact
that it is seldom meddled with BY
the scissors. If these illustrations Of
an extracting principle are INSULT
cient to convince the most skeptical,
a more familiar example may be ad-
duced - a proof Of its existence.
Women rarely become bald. No
one can deny the truth Of this asser-
ton. The only reason for the profu.
sion and continued growth OF their
hair is its length. Were they in the
habit of cutting their hair as men do,
badness would be Just as common
among them, as it now is among the
sterncr sex. OF course there are
many other causes than the one men,
toned which tend to produce bald
ness. It, however, is the principal
one, and can be easily explained. Ma
ture responds to all reasonable de-
mapds. II man wishes to become
swift, he must practice running. II
he desires to grow strong, he must
take physical exercise. 1fhe wants
to become q logical thinker, he must
cultivate his reasoning power. Moth
ing is 90 fatal to either mental or
bodily health as inactivity. Apply
this principle to the growth OF the
hair, and the inference is obvious.
To DO vigorous and Aourishing roots
of the hair must have some strain up
on them. There must be q certain
tension. Theie must be some demand
upon them. When the hair is cut
short, it lies fiat upon the top Of the
head ;there is no strain or tension upon
the roots, and they grow indolent and
dormant, until finally the hair dies
away. The fact that the top ofthe head
is always the first part to grow bald
proves the truth Of this theory. On
the sides of the head there is invaria.
bly some little tension upon the
roots. When the hair hangs perpen-
dicularly badness will rarely occur.
Thus it is that the hair Of mans
beard never falls out. Badness need
never be feared when the hair is per.
mitted to grow long and parted in
the middle. Occasional pulling OF
the hair 10 favorable to its growth
and increases the strength and activ-
ity of it's roots. What so facilitatei
