a Severe Winter Ahead.

The heads of the weather bureau have
been much puzzled by the recent hot
spell. Such a general and prolonged
seige of hot weather in October has not
been known since 1917. The scien6ats
of the Smithsonian and the weather
prophets Of the cold p~robabilities" bureau
have been discussing the matter and
have arrived at various opinions as to the
cause and effect Of the siege. Some Of
them believe that the occultation Of Veaps
to-day lad more or less effect on The
elements. All agree pretty nearly. how
ever ia the belief shat the coming winner
will be a severe one. Not taat i; will be
particularly cold but more boisteroas
and disaereeable than usual.

Squa3daring the States Money
On the Columbia Canal.

Now that the Legislature is aboat to
meet We think the press Of the State
might with propc;ety discuss matters
which are 70 come before that body.
The canal at Columbia has cost the State
thousands of dollars and st the last session
$1,000 additional was appropriated to
that great humbug. But as good luck
would have it, there was some flaw in
the appropriation and the money has not
been spent, and it is not too late to save
a depleted treasury from this draft.
1Iuch has been said on this subject and
valuable time has been wasted on this
question, ani We hope to see the Legis-
lature at its next session take such steps
as will forever settle it. The CANAL is z
local enterprise ia which the people OF
Abbcvillc County are not interested to
amount Of a cent, and we cannot see Why
we shoaiG be taxed hundreds of dollars
to build up Columbia when orr towns
and farms are languish:ng for the want
of money. It seems worse than folly to
tax the people Of Long Cane to enrich
the people Of the Congaree.
Let the Legislature promptly relieve
the State Of this eytravagant and foolish
appropriation. We are sure that it is
not tie wish Of any of DIR people to add
one f.rthing to their own shoulders for
the canal. Il would in our opinion be
better ior the State to appropriate money
to devclop Cpsar's Head as a health
resort Ioc those OF her citizens who nay
live il: .a"?ul;o2" districts.
Wn want TO invest no money IL the Co
lumhia canal, and nope that il Repre-
sentalires will look Gftar the interest of
their people in withdrawing this appro-
nrjation. Let our exchanges SPEAK out

Killed his Brother.

4 shocking and he~artrending tragedy
took place at Spring Hill, in Barbour
County, On Tuesday night. Mr.. George
P. Crymes, q gentleman of great worth
ard high character, received a death
wound at the haa,ls Of his brother unleg
the following circumstances: Z few nights
ago a burglar had attempted to enter the
residence of Mr. Crymes' brother, butthe
latter succeeded in driving him off with
out having lost anything. When Mr..
George p. Crymes reached his brothers
residence, Tuesday night, the family had
retired, and IS -. CrylAcs va familiar
with The place, he started to enter the
house without awakening the family.
As he was hard of hearing, lie did not
hear lis brothers voice VIXEN the latter
hailed him. Is he kept on going into
the house, his brother supposed him to
be tie same burglar who had previously
attempted to enter the house or another
one, and he notified him if he did not
answer he would shoot him. Mr.. G. still
not hearing, his brother then fired upon
him with a double barrel shot gun, and
a load of small shot entered his breast,
DO doubt some striking the vital parts, rs
he expired shortly afterwards. No one
can picture the anguish of the brother
when he discovered who it was that had
been shot. Every n sympathizes with
him. The deceased was universally es-
teemed by all who knew him.-Hcntgom-

An "e!ninent physician" gives it as o
professional opinion that swearing never
was good for O sore finger. 1t never
cured the rheumatism nor helped draw a
prize in a lottery. It is not recommend
ed fer liver complaints. 1t is not sure
against lightning, sewing machine agents.,
nor any Of tie lis which beset people
through life. Almost any experienced
journalist will tell you that there is 70
occasion for swearing outside of a news
paper Office, where it is useful in proof
reading and Indispensable necessary in
getting forms to press. It has been
known also to materially assist tie editor
in looking over the paper after it is;
