prominent political notoriety as
one of the big Four" was killed
by = ward hummer and rough by
the name of Louis Clair, at / o'clock
on New Years morning. It is
charged by the supporters of Gen.
Nichols that his death was instiga-
ted by James D. Houston, of New
Orleans, McEnery's most promi-
nent worker in that city. Mr.
Houston is out in q card denying
any connection with the murder.
Over five thousand persons follow
ed Mealy's remains to the grave,

Prior to the reformation of the
calender by Julius Cesar, and
many centuries afterward, the
methods of dividing time were va
rious, complicated and imperfect
The moon was the planet which in
fiuenced and governed most ma
tons, and gave rise to universal
variance between the natural and
civil year. The religious feasts of
the Christian church are still regu-
lated by the moon. The Council Of
Nice provided that Easter, the GEN.
trail point by which all other days
in the church calender are fixed,
should fall on the first Sunday af-
ter the first full moon occurring ON
or otter March 81. The complex
method of making these lunar Pc
RODS correspond with the civil
year is evidence enough of the diff
fculty of arranging any system for
the computation of time by the Sin
constant moon" Our week and
month are not natural divisions of
time, though some ingenious efforts
have been made to trace some con-
nection between natural phenome-
ma and the period of seven days.

Five ways to Stop OF Cure : Cold.

l. Battle the feet in hot water
and drink e pint of hot lemonade.
Then sponge with salt water and
remain in q warm room.
2. Battle the face in hot water
every FIVE minutes for an hour.
3. Snuff up the nostrils hot salt
water every three hours.
4 Inhale ammonia or menthol.
5. Take four hours active exer-
else in the open air.
Summer colds are the worst of
all colds oftentimes, as it is then
very difficult to protect ones self
properly. A ten grain dose Of quiz
nine viii usually break up . cold
in the beginning. Anything that
win set the blood actively in circu-
lation will do it, whether it be e
drug or the use of q bucksaw.

Everyone knows that January
LIST is the beginning of the year,
but not everyone knows why. It
marks no natural division Of time
nor any event in the worlds histo-
ry which would give it such dis
tinction. The winter solstice- that
is, the period when the sun appears
to reach its greatest southern de-
CLEMSON, or furtherest point south
|of the equator, occurs December
~, nine days before the new year
begins. The summer solstice, an
other natural division Of time, oc-
ours june %, q point nearly as far
removed from the new year as the
calender permita The natural di-
visions of time which suggest them
selves at once to the practical OBJ
server are the winter and summer
solstices and the vernal and autum-
nal equinoxee, periods at which
the days and nights have equal
length or their greatest difference.
These having been neglected, the
moons phase would seem to have
been most likely fixed upon. But

gave rs our new year, governed by
caprice or reasons of the most tenn
porary duration, departed from the
