Don't
let that cold of yours run on. You
think it is a light thing. But it may
run into catarrh. Or into pneumonia.
Or consumption.
Catarrh is disgusting. Pneumonia
is dangerous. Consumption is death
itself.
The breathing apparatus must be
kept healthy and clear Of all obstruc-
tions and offensive matter. Otherwise
there is trouble ahead.
All the diseases Of these parts, head,
nose, throat, bronchial tubes and
lungs, can be delightfully."- and entirely
cured by the use Of Boschee's German
Syrup. If you don't know this already
thousands and thousands of people
can tell you. They have been cured
by it, and "know how it is, them
selves" Bottle only Is cents. Ask
any druggist.

Who find difficulty in breathing q
source of much distress and annoy
ance should give DR.. Wstar's 6afsam

they will assuredly find relief and
in many Instances it will effect
permanent cure. 1t is the best
family medicine in the world. A
single teaspoonful will cure an or
dinary cough or cold a few bottles
will cure consumption if taken in

did a good business.
The ladies of the town have sent to the
yellow fever sufferers a box OF clothing.
COLLECTIONS were taken up in the churches

NOTES FROM LANCASTER COUNTY.

CRA1Gsv1LLEnOctober 1.-Farmers are

pretty much as it must have done on

That ubiquitous individual, "the oldest

or saw such q wet spell in September as
we have lately passed through. 1t seemed
that the rain would never stop. Cotton
picking is at least a month behind, and
there is a short crop of the staple into the
bargain. Many people, in fact, most OF
our farmers, have made up their minds
that not more than half a crop will be
harvested. There is scarcely any top crop,
and the frost of yesterday will probably,
cut off what there is The negroes Will
certainly miss the little speculation that
they have usually made on 'cracked cot
tom" There will be none for them 10
CLEAN.
. Corn is scarce. Many farmers have lost
all they had on bottoms. Some have gath
cred What was available, shucked it out,
and are using it to feed stock. The crop IS
very short generally.
We are now picking cotton right along,
and hope for good weather, sc we may, get
the staple as clean as possible and obtain
fair prices; but the measles threaten TO
Interfere. That disease is spreading rapid
ly over our community, and on some farms
serious loss is apprehended on account OF
laborers being sick. 1 have not heard of
any deaths from the measles; but, If the
weather should turn bad, considerable
mortality might ensue.
On yesterday our community paid the
sad rite of burial to the remains of Mrs.
| Margaret Mellow, widow Of the late Har-
vey Mellow. Her illness had been OF sew
eral weeks duration. WANHA".

SCHOOL COMMISSIONER.

Speaking of the proposed amendment to
the State constitution to make the office OF
county school commissioner appointive In
stead of elective, as at present, the Winns-
boro News says:
"Atthe approaching general election, the
proposed amendment to the constitution
making the office of school cOmmissioner
appoinfive or elective, will be voted upon.
AS the matter stands at present, it seems TO
us that it makes little difference, for the
candidates already, in a large majority OF
the counties, submit their claims to h prl-
mary like other officers. We suppose it
will always be thus, whether the office IS
elective or appointive."
In the case of the county school commits
sioner, however, it will probably be differ
ent from other appointive offices, aspirants
to which submit their claims to the voters.
Our understanding is that the proposed
change contemplates an examination OF
the applicant, who, by the properly constl-
tuted examiners, must be pronounced. TO
possess certain scholastic qualifications be-
fore his appointment can be recommended.
With such a feature as this the change
would be a good one

THE WEATHER AND II CROPS.-Ine
South Carolina Weather Service, co-operat-
ing with the chief signal officer, furnishes
the following concerning the effects OF the
weather on the various crops during the
week ending last Saturday:
The rainfall for the past week has been
below an average; temperature for the
same period has been below the average;
sunshine about an average mount.
Wherever rain has fallen it has been
fairly distributed and had a favorable effect
ON all crops. Temperature has been below
the average, yet ~seasOnable, and with the
average amount of sunshine has operated
favorably for the various crops. Cotton
opening rapidly and picking being pushed:
Hay crop promises we'll. Corn IN most
places badly damaged, as also the rice.
Turnips doing well.
The weekly crop bulletin issued last sun
day by the signal office at washington
saX| ,sG oo,o,. our;ro tbe week was gen.
erally favorable for all growing crops in all
sections. except New England, where
heavy rains are reported as unfavorable.
THROUGHOUT the cotton belt reports indicate
that the weather during the week improv-
ed the condition of the cotton crop. In
Louisiana the conditions are favorable tor
zane and harvesting rice. Generally
throughout the Gulf States the weather IS
fine for cotton picking and seeding wheat.
Light frosts occurred in the northern por-
ton of the Gulf States, over the tobacco
regions of Tennessee, Kentucky, N0rtM
Carolina and Virginia, and in the MiddlSS
Atlantic and New England States, which,
will probably result in some damage ti
growing crops, but the warnings, of thesf
frosts were issued to the threatened sections
in time to enable those receiving them to
secure the greater portion of the tobacco
crop not previously cut" |

MURDER IN CHESTER CoUNTY.-The
Chester correspondent of the Charleston
World writes under date of last Saturday:
Reports reach here this morning Of the
murder of negro on the public road about
eight miles from this place. About 4
o'clock this morning twelve or fifteen pis-
toll shots were heard by parties living at
some distance from the road, then the
sounds of three or four horses moving rap
idly. Shortly after daylight a gentleman
was driving to town, and saw the body OF
a negro man lying across the road with
his hands tied together and about twelve
bullet holes in his body.
Later in the day the following particu-
lars of the tragedy were learned:
r. w. Lipford had Sam CornWell, a
negro, under arrest on a peace warrant, and
wa on his way to a trial Justice, with an
extra guard of three men. About 4 O'Clock
they were fired into from an ambush. The
constable and others fed, and Sam Corn
we'll was instantly killed.
On examination by DR.. Davega, fifteen
bullet holes were found in the body. At
the %coroner's inquest the evidence was that
Sam Cornwell came to his death by gun
shot wounds inflicted by parties unknown
to the constable and others.
No arrests have been made. Further in
~vestigation will be pushed by Coroner
Murphy. A 45-calibre Winchester rifle
Was uSed.

DANGER OF SUPINENESS.

The Democracy Of South Carolina has
been in a State of security since the event
full days of 1876, and this condition OF
things, we fear, has brought about a state
of s~upineness of which the Republican
leaders are already beginning to take
advantage, and which may endanger DEM
ocratic success in the Presidential race,
which of course is the goal outside OF
Beaufort and Charleston Congressional
districts.
The action of the Republican State exec
tive committee, in their recent meeting at
Columbia, demonstrates that in the Presl-
Dental election at least a full vote OF the
party will be polled, and other evidences
20 to show that South Carolina Radicallsm
is beginning to raise its hydra head ana
NAV strike in many places where least ex-
pected.
The candidacy of Tom Miller, in the
Beaufort, and S. w. Mckinley, In the
Charleston congressional districts, betoken,
if not hopes of success by these candidates,
that their political sacrifice may Lead to
preferment hereafter in the event OF the
success of the Republican Presidential
ticket, on which Republican expectation
is now running high.
Events in Barnwell and Sumter coun-
ties also lead to. the conclusion that the
Radical horde is being organized for the
contest. In Sumter, last Friday, a Repub-
lican demonstration was held, which was
led by Johnson, Brayton, Miller, Murray,
Swails, Deas and Heriot, names familiar
in the history of Radicalism in this State,
and according to the correspondent OF the
News and. Courier, it was the most enthu-
siastic that has been seen in the county tor
several. years." AT least 1000 colored per-
sons were present and the meeting lasted
four hours. The. correspondent concludes
that Republicanism is not dead in sumter.
In Barnwell county similar enthusiasm
prevails among the negroes. One report
from that county says: 'The negroes are
organizing and threatening the whites
and marching through the country with
q band of music, banners and shot guns,
and alarming the whites to that extent
that seven families have left their homes,
and others are greatly frightened by the
conduct of the blacks. 1t is said that
there is some agitator making incendlary
speeches to them at night. n negroc"
tell the whites they are going to ride the
Black Horse in over the Gray at the COM
ing election"
While these demonstrations may serve
to point to the white people of the mme-
date localities the dangers with which
they are threatened, other counties in
which Radicalism may now seem dormant
should not fall into a state of fancied secu-
rity and let the State 60 Republican in the
Presidential contest by default of their
efforts.
