AN ELECTRICAL STORM AT SEA.
The Aurania Encounters an Unusually
Brilliant Illumination.

The Aurania Encounters an Unusually
Brilliant Illumination.
Passengers on the Aurania, which
arrived yesterday, who ventured on
deck on Sunday evening, were treated
to remarkable display of electric Il
Elimination. Few people besides the
officers and seamen witnessed It,
however, for heavy rain was falling
at the time. The vessel was about
eighty miles off Fire Island, and sail
ing through dense fog. At $50 the
rain became torrent, while the fcg
continued, and lightning began to
fash in all directions. The ship was
in the midst of q great electrical
storm, and thunder crashes followed
the lightning instantaneously. The
masts of big boats like the Aurania
are provided with lightning rods,
which are made serriceable by run
ming insulated chairs from their lower
lower ends over the sides of the ship
and grounding" them in the water.
This apparatus was unrealed as soon
as soon as lightning appeared, but no
bolts hit it. For three-quarters OF
an hour the flashes we're substantially
continuous, and, in spite Of the mist,
were binding in brilliancy. One OF
the officers described the effect thus:
"The continuous light looked
through the mist as if some one We're
swinging gigantic lantern behind a
curtain. This of itself was very
bright, enabling us to see the rigging
with distinctness and the sea for a
wide space around. There was no
wind and hardly q noticeable swell
on. At frequent intervals, certainly
no more than q few seconds, there
came vivid flashes so bright that we
seemed to be looking squarely at the
sun. These were accompanied by
loud thunder slaps, some OF the loud
est I have ever heard, and for that
matter I have never seen SO contln-
uous display of lightning at sea or
anywhere else. I do not think that
more than two or three passengers
came out Of the cabin, for the rain
was drenching and the thunder terri
flying. There was no danger of any
consequence to the ship. We moved
out Of the electrical storm, or it
moved from US, at abeut 1915, after
which the night was perfectly dark
and the rain continued for some time
longer. I saw no freballs OF other
illumination of the yards, except the
natural reflection OF the water drops,
which made yards and rigging ghsten
at the edges."-New York Letter.

TRICKS OF A TRAPPER.
In Which He Was Very Ably Assisted By
uts Male.

There were thirty Of Us in camp on
spur Of the Black Hills mining for
gold, says writer in the n. 7. Sus
whom one afternoon we looked down
upon the level plain and saw four
mounted redskins chasing white
man on mule. He was making for
US, but they were rapidly overhauling
him, and it was plain enough that we
could render no assistance. The fore
most Indian fred shot, and man and
mule fell in a heap. The Indians
pressed forward, yelling and exulting,
but the faint reports of revolver
reached our ears, and we saw redskins
and ponies tumbling over at every re-
port. Some of our men slid down the
steep mountainside to take hand in,
bat it was not needed. When they
reached the man he sat on the ground
laughing as if he would split.
TO think!' he shouted. as soon as
he could control his voice, that these
ere Sioux, who are rated sharp as
razors, could be fooled by that old
trick-ha! ha! hal" And he laughed
until he had to wipe away the tears.
On the ground near by were three
dead Indians and another about to die.
while two of the ponies were dead and
the other two badly wounded. It had
all been done with an old-fashioned
Colts revolver, loaded with powder
and ball and carrying percussion cap
but the work had been rapid and sure.
The Indians had closed in on him. sup
posing him to be dead or badly wound
ed. while neither man nor mule had
been touched. After bit the man,
who was an old trapper. went over to
the wounded warrior and said to him
in the Sioux dialect. and chuckling be-
tween the words:
Say, did any OF you feilers ever see
q white man before?"
Many of them," gasped the war
rior.
Didn't you ever hear Of that old
trick betore?"
..Isn't the white man woundeds"
Not by dozen, Nancy Jane. 1'has

gave my oldrmule the signal to soua:
and down we tumbled to draw you on.
The other three are dead. and you ara
about to 60. Say, I don't want to hurt
a dyin' injun's feelings. but-ha, ha,
ha-but it was 'nuf to kill fellow to
see how you four opened your-ha, ha,
-eyes when | began to pop. Funniest
thing have seen in year. Durn it,
won't need any qui'neeu for month.
I'm just sweating the chiils off with
laughing"
The Indian gazed at him in trou-
bled way for moment. seemed to
realize that he had been duped, and
ha closed his eyes and died without
ever raising the lids again.

THE PARTY CONSTITUTION QUOTED.

THE PARTY CONSTITUTION QUOTED.
The constitution of the Democratic
party provides as follows: The
State convention shall be composed
of delegates from each county Ill nu-
merical proportion to which the
county is entitled in both branches
of the General Assembly"
No one disputes that according to,
the last United States census (Which
the constitution now recognizes as
the legal basis of representation
seven counties are each ''entitled' to
one more member of the House of
Representatives, and consequently to
two more delegates to the State Con
yent;on, than they now have. Mark
the words: tsssays ito which that
county is entitled" not which that
county has, and we demand appor-
tionment as it is nominated in the
bond.
Now, will the Democratic Execu-
| utive Committee right this, or have
| it rishted; or will they bow to Co
lumbia and Charleston. Suppose in
this campaign I should carry the
counties of GreenviQe, Spn'tanburg,
Iaarens, Sumter, Marlboro and
Edseheld, which is not at all improb:
able. and that Richland 1dCharlestor
should oppose me. Suppose that
the contest shall be decided against
me under the existing apportl onment
bv twelve votes, what a spectacle vii
