A certain young Spanish friar, q skill
full painter, especially delighted in de-
vising new aspects of blessedness and
beauty for the Virgin and in setting
forth the devil in the most repulsive and
extravagant ugliness. Satan bore this as
bogt he could for some time, but at last
determined to be revenged. He assumed
the disguise of most lovely maiden, and
the unhappy friar, being of an amorous
disposition. fell into the trap. She
smiled sveetly on her shaven wooer, but
would mot surrender her beauty at lese
price than the rich reiiqusries and jewels
Of the treasury Of the monastery. In an
evil hour the poor painter admitted her
ct midnight within the convent walls,
and she took from the antique cabinet
the precious things she desired. Then,
- they wound their way through the
moonlit cloister, the sinful friar clutching
his booty with one arm and his beauty
with the other, the demon lady suddenly
cried out "Thieves! |" with diabolical en-
erRy. Up started all the snoring monks,
and rushed in disorder from their cells,
detecting the unlucky brother making off
with the plate. Him they tied safe to
pillar, leaving him there till the next day
should determine his punishment, while
the brethren went back to their pillows
or their prayers; and then the cruel devil
appeared in his real shape to the poor
painter, tauntin2 and INVITING him and
} making unmerciful mockery of his amor
Gus overtures and his prayers-advising
him now to appeal to the beauty he had
% loved to deliDeate on his canvases
The penitent monk took the advice, and
loi the radiant mother of mercy descend
ed in Ill her heavenly lovliness, unbound
his cords, babe him fasten the evil one
in his place to the column, and appear
among the monks the next morning at
mathis, which he did, to the great
surprise of the brethren. He voted
for his own condemnation but when
they went to the sacristy and found ev-
erything marvelously correct in it's place,
and when they went to the column they
found the devil fast bound, they forgave
the erring brother, and administered
terrible Jogging to the devil. The monk
became not only "a wiser and better
man." but better artist. He was now
able to paint the Virgin more serenely
beautiful ,the arch enemy more appal-
lingly ugly, than ever.-[London Globe.

Scrofula in Children.

The following is taken from letter
written under date of July l, 1889,
by Mrs. Ruth Berkley, most charita-
bic and christian lady, ofSalin., Kan:
ON the early part oflSS7 scrofula ap-
peared on the head of my little grand
child, then only eighteen months old.
Shortly after breaking out it spread
rapidly al over her body. The scabs
on the sores would peel off on the
slightest touch, and the odor that
would arise would make the atmos-
phere Of the room sickening and un-
bearable. The disease next attacked
the eyes and we feared she would
lose her sight. Eminent physicians
from the surrounding country were
consulted, but could do nothing to
relieve the little innocent, and gave it
as their opinion, that the case was
hopeless and impossible to save the
child's eyesisht.' 1t was then that we
decided to try Swifts Specific Is. S.
S. That medicine at once made a
speedy and complete cure. For more
than year past che has been as
healthy as any child in the land

question. Every man who has the
interest and welfare of the town and
community and Of his own family at
heart, will not, for q moment, hesitate
how to vote. a barroom in Foreston
would be curse to the town, with
no benefit. The expense of keeping
up a police force in a small town
where whiskey is sold is more than the
revenue from the barroom. Then the
danger, the misery, the damnation it
will cause in so many households.
Better, far better, to get the charter
of the town rescinded, and let the
town r2ck on independent 81 any po-
lice powers, than that an accursed
barroom should be opened in the
town. Every family has at some time

The Fight of the Farmers.

The address OF President Stack
house "to the members of the Alliance
in South Carolina" should be read
by every farmer in the State, whether
be be in or out of the Alliance; for
the fight of one is the fight of all.
The farmers have put their hands to
the plough and they cannot look back.
The splendid warfare that they have
waged will have been waged in vain
if at this critical moment in the con-
test they surrender all that they have
gained.
IF we are to continue and succeed
in this fight says President Stack
house, eve should lose no time.
Every Sub-Alliance in the State must
decide for itself, and decide quickly,
whether or not the contest shall be
continued next year. 1t will be pos
sible to obtain an ample supply OF
cotton bagging to cover every bale OF
cotton grown in the South next year,
if the Alliance will take its stand
upon this question now. The mills
will not manufacture cotton bagging
unless they have a pledge from the
Alliance that the cotton bagging will
be used for covering the crop next
year. The mills were not able to
manufacture cotton bagging in suffic-
lent quantity to cover the present
years crop, because the Alliance did
not give them time to put up the nee
essary machinery for the manufacture
of the bagging. Tie question of tare
has not been adjusted, because the ex-
changes have been led to believe that
the farmers were only making squirt,
and that they could not hold out
against the combination.
Unless the farmers act now, and
act together, the contest will turn
against them next year and their last
state will be worse than their first. Il
the principle for which the Alliance
has been contending was worth fight
ing for this year, it will be wortL
fighting for next year, and every
year. But in order to win, the farm
ers must stand together and work to-
gether.-Ne,cS and Courier.

Queer Cotton.

The Stateburg correspondent of the
Ne,cs and Courier states that he has
found cotton plants in his field which
contained lint in the bolls and no seed
they having dropped out of the boil
and planting this seed, he obtained
bolls full of seed but no lint. This
confirms the Srartanburg story. A
colored man in the some peighbor,
hood reports the same state of facts
SO that there seems to be no doubt
about it. 1t is too early to determine
what the bearings of these facts or
cotton production will be: It looks
now as if there are ';freaks" in the
world Of cotton, just as there are in
the world of men.-Watc]lman ana
,SOuthlUn.

CoIored Alliance Meeting.
1.Suu,trr ;1lrunc2.1


On Friday and Saturday of last
week the colored Alliance of Sumter
county held close convention in the
court house in this city. Some of theil
State officials were present. Being il
session for two days they must have
considered and discussed various
questions at great length. The meet.
ings were secret and held with closed
doors, and nothing could be learned ot
the doings within.
1t is hard, however, to keep news
paper man from finding out some
things when he makes up his mind to
do so. We have since found out from
a confidential source and source that
we consider altogether reliable, that
during the meeting of the convention
the negroes composing it unanimously
passed resolutions that they were not
fighting the merchants only, but were
also fighting the landlords and the
white planters. That they would de-
mand higher wages and lower rents,
and would not, under any circum-
stances, work for less, nor pay more
for land rents, than the figures named
in the resolutions. The figures given
by our informant were SOC. per acre
for chopping cotton, Csc. per hundred
for picking, and 81 per acre for rent.
We make these statements on informa-
ton and belief, and if they are not true,
let them be refuted.
The facts stated above have very
deep significance to our minds. They
show first that the negroes are turning
the Alliance into secret labor organ
ization. They show secondly, organ
lied antaeonism to the white people,
and a resolution to bring about race
issue.
There is abundant food for thought
right here. Where will this thing
lead to-? In this connection read our
editorial to-day on this subject, which
was written before the convention
met. "He that hath ears to hear, let
him heal"

THAT UNNECESSARY INQUEST.

We are told that Coroner Rowe
last week publicly called in question
the statements made by us three
weeks ago, in reference to his holding
an inquest over the body of Mr.: Thos.
E. Shannon. We have not seen his
article but we wish simply to reiterate
every word in that article. We were
present when Coroner Rowe was
making his preparations to leave
Manning to hold the inquest, and ad-
vised him not to go. Mr.. W. H. H.
Hobbs, chairman of the board of
county commissioners, and Dr.. I. NJ.
Woods, the attending physician, told
US that they advised Mr.. Rowe not to
hold the inquest; and Mr.. Hobbs
says he urgently protested against the
holding of the inquest, and told Mr..
Rowe that he would never approve
of any claim he might present for
holding this inquest. Mr.. Hobbs
says that Mr.. Rowe had, as he
thought, abandoned the idea Of hold
ing the inquest, and that the funeral
procession with the corpse had left
the house for the cemetery when the
inquestO was held. These same gen.
tlemen told US that the jury Of inquest
did not view the body, or examine
the only person who was in the room
at the time of Mr.. Shannon's death.
After We wrote the article three
weeks ago, criticising Coroner Rowe,
We read it to Dr. l. ii. Woods (who
Mr.. Rowe says requested him to hold
the inquest) and be told US 1t acas &c.
actly correct. As will be seen we
wrote our article on information.
which we then considered, and gel con-
slider, perfectly reliable

[Ne,cs and Courier.l
Foster, Mrs. j. Ellen.

Mrs. ]. Ellen Foster made quite an
exhibition of herself in the recent
convention of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union at Chicago. Some
how-perhaps it was because her
husband has been recognized" by
the present administration-she felt
it to be her bounden duty TO defend
Vice-President Morton and his bar
room in Washington, and when her
sisters declined to hear her reflections
upon their lovable president, Miss
Willard, Mrs. Foster got as mad as a
wet-~no, a "dry"-hen. While she
was in her tantrum, Mrs, Foster de-
clared that, if she were running e
hotel like the Yice-President, she
would also have barroom attached
to it, or words to that effect, and
made it very clear that in her zeal TO
defend tie Vice-PresideH ut, because he
is a~Republican, she lost sight OF that
consistency in preaching and practice
which should ever characterize the
conduct of an apostle Of temper
ance.
The upshot of the Foster episode
was that Mrs. Foster and the Iowa
delegation withdrew from the conven,
ton. So much the better for the con-
vention and for the work in which the
Woman's Christian Temperance I'm
ion is engaged. It was mainly through
the influence of such women as Mrs.
j. Ellen Foster that the temperance
cause received so severe rebuke in
Iowa. It has been through the par
tisau course of Mrs. j. Ellen Foster
and her use of the temperance or
ganization to advance the interests OF
the Republican party that the Prohi-
bitionists of Iowa have come to grief.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union can get along without Mrs. J.
Ellen Foster far better than Mrs. j.
Ellen Foster can get along without
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union. Miss Willard, as they say in
Kansas, is worth a cowpen full OF
Mrs. j. Ellen Fosters.

SUMrER'S TRADE REVIEW.

The Sumter Wotchmon and Southron
issued this week a trade review, which
is one of the most handsome and at
tractive trade issues We have ever
seen. 1t contains eighteen views Of
the principal points of interest in
Sumter, and twenty-five portraits of
its most prominent citizens, in all for
ty pictures. 1t gives history of all
the enterprises of the place, and shows
that the trade of Sumter has been a
regular even growth, without any
boom. In 1887 the population was
2,709; in 1889, only two years, the
Wutchman claims a net increase Of
1852 inhabitants, making the present
population 4,161. The business of
this year is s3,102,5O0, an increase
over last year of $lS4,2O0. The tax
able property is returned at 81, ,225,160,
which the Hatchn'an thinks is only
half its market value. It has four
railroads, two banks, a cotton factory,
an electric light plant, etc. The show
ing is very creditable for both Sum-
ter and the Watchman. The trade is

We would like those who

MANNING WANTS THE RAILROAD.

The Eutawville Railroad will soon
be completed through this county to
Sumter, and large part of the trade
Of western Clarendon will drift away
from Manning. We want railroad
to this section for the purpose of COM
peting for the trade, and also for the
purpose OF giving US competing line
to Charleston. Cotton is now shipped
from Summerton to Charleston for a
third less than from Manning. a
road built to Manning would get its
full share of the freight, and would
also DO good passenger business.
We understand special train is now
run from Vances to Elloree, and that
it pays. The same train could prob
ably do the work on both these branch
lines, and pay still greater dividend.
Manning wants this branch line.
