1t is amusing to watch the an.
tics Of the Ringstcrs and cold
grannics' Of the State in their
feeble efforts to stine the voice Of
the people. If evcr there was a
time in the history Of South Caro-
lima when the individual judg-
mcnt of every Democratic voter
was separately expressed, it has
been done in this campaign. In
our own county the election OF
delegates to our county conven-
ton amounted to very near a
stmightout primary. What more
could be asked ?

The last resort Of the "anything.

Primary, rs we have already
stated, and failing in this, it is be-
loved they will "bolt'' and try to
keep out Of the State convention
all delegates who were not elected
by primary. This slim pretext

can be shown that all were elect

AFTER A LONG SEARCH.
The Romantic Story of a Little Southern
Girl Who Was Kidnapped.


Girl Who Was Kidnapped.
About five years & Mr.. James ].
Arnold, a son of old Parson Arnold, well
known in Shelby and adjoining counties
Of Alabama, while visiting his step
mother, Mrs. Nancy Arnold, of Calera,
Shelby county, had a 4~-year-old daugh-
ter, Mahala j., stolen from him. Mr..
Arnold learned that his child had been
seen with a woman who called herself
Sarah J.. Colbert, and who had undoubt-
eddy taken the girl away. Inquiry at
the railroad office at Calera revealed no
hint as to the direction gone or the OBJ
jective point of the child stealer. The
child's mother had died when the former
was an infant, but there was a small
brother and sister still living, home COM
panions at the time of the abduction of
the girl.
A search for the stolen daughter
proved fruitless, and five years had
elapsed. In the meantime the father
had moved to Mississippi and returned
again to Tuscaloosa county, where he
lived when his daughter was stolen, and
where he has resided for the last two
years, since his return from Mississippi.
In 1897 John c. Arnold, who had as
sisted his brother in the search for the
lost child, received a postal card, dated
Jan. II, from Key, Ala, and signed y.
NJ. Bridges" informing him 1.-THE par
ties" he had inquired about got their
mail at that office. From this clew only
the brother continued his search by in
quiries and correspondence in the effort
to discover the whereabouts of his lost
niece.
Nearly three more years were thus
spent in trying to unrayel the mystery Of
the stolen child, when at last what ap-
peared to be n fruitless effort was re-
warded by n substantial clew to the
girls probable whereabouts. The father
recently set out rom his home, nearly
twenty miles south of Tuscaloosa city,
to race up the information he had OBJ
tanned. On reaching st. Clair he fol-
lowed the windings of the Coosa via
Greensport and Hoke's Bluff, entering
Cherokee-the county he set out for. He
had learned that a little waif girl had
been left with a McAlva in Cherokee,
about fifteen to eighteen miles above
Coloma. y description of the child con-
WINGED Mr.. Arnold that she was his lost
daughter. On reaching McAlva's his
convictions were confirmed as soon as
his eyes looked upon her features.
McAlva said the girl had been left at
his house by n woman calling herself
Sal Wheeler, who was found to 60 also
by the alias Sal Colbert, and who after,
var came back after the child, he re,
fusing to give her up, but let her have
the latter's clothes, which she demanded,
The girl had been called Emma by the
woman who stole her, but retained the
memory of her real name. Mahala is
now about 0 years old, and of pleasant
features, bright and intelligent face, and
by no mea of an unprepossessing APP
pearance. -Ashville Kgis.

Fogg entered the a Says The Bos-
ton Transcript to find every seat oc-
cupied and the aisle filled with stand
ees. But he was equal to the occasion.
He shouted with the voice of one hay
ing authority: PLENTY of seats in the
next car" Instantly there was a rush
for the next car. The standing pas.
sengers started first of course, but
their were lots of the sitters who want
ed TO sit together and several more
who thought by going into the other
car they might get two or three seats
to themselves. The result was that
Fogg selected one Of the vacated seats,
and was deep in his newspaper by the
time the crowd came pouring back,
with an evident desire to shed Fogg's
blood. You see, it was an oversight
on Fogg's part. There We're plenty
of seats in the next car; he merely
forgot TO mention that they were full.

Dials live over into this age of cheap
clocks and watches not by reason of
their use or convenience, but because
Of their associations. They were for
merly designed with taste and bore
inscriptions suited to their purpose.
Many of these are historic, as the one
hat used to be at Paul's Cross in Lon
don, which said, in Latin, Il number
none but sunny hours"
An old fashioned dial in a garden OF
Sussex, England, is said to bear upon
its plate these four notices, each for
its own season: "After Darkness,
Light" "Alasl how swift" Il warn
whilst l move;" 80 passes Life"
Familiar old notices are some of
Jul every day proverbs. Someo of these
are, Gan things do wax and wane;"
THE longest day must end MAKE
hay while the sun shines"
One of the most appropriate of these
notices used TO be borne by n dial
that stood in the old Temple Gardens,
and it is said TO have been furnished
by the great lord chancellor Bacon.
His lordship was hard at work one
day in his chambers, when an idle
student dropped in to ask for a motto
for the new sun dial which was then
being built. Twice the student hum
bly, made his request, but the grave
chancellor gave no reply or sign of
having heard it. At last, as the pc
titioner began for the third time, Ba-
con looked up and said, angrily;
"Sirrah, be gone about your bus.

"a thousand thanks, my lord, " re-
piled the sutton. The very thing for

her talents, enjoyed her society and
was a frequent visitor at her villa near
Florence. Ouida vas prepared to be-

was never asked. She made her lover

He held his breath for a moment to
be sure of the whistle and let the
time for several bars go by.
All, yes! no other voice but Will

while the third went for a torch.
Rupert dived and thou swan noise

They hid in the reeds and water

prisoner.
No thought of his trying to escape

"Poor little chap" said the tender
est hearted and worst educated OF the
crowd. "He hev sung hisself plum

of his'n."
At three o'clock that morning Major
Babcock was reused from his slumber
by a visit from Col. Singleton.
"Where are my boys?" was the
wild question.
Major Babcock never replied in
words, for he heard the countersign
given to the sentry in a voice they
both knew.
Col. Singleton removed his portly
person from the majors tent to the
pickets in a manner calculated to up
set all the rules governing avoirdu-
pois. He had his two boys in his
arms before they knew that he had
come.
"What have you done, my SOM"

and Rupert cried and the majors

The tender mother wept, too, when
she heard of it. She thanked God
for the promise her boy had given
her, the keeping of which had done
so much for both.
Little Sergeant Singleton himself
had nothing to say about the exploit,
but "Guide Me, o Thou Great Jeho-
YAH" is still the favorite hymn with
the whole family.
