How the Thing Is Done Among the Nn-
tivcs of South Carolina.
There were eight OF us sitting on some
cotton bales at a little railroad station
in South Carolina waiting for train
which wasn't expected for nearly an
horr Right opposite us was a strip OF
forest, and presently we saw man bend
aside a bush and survey US in cautious
manner. Every one saw him, and yet
no one offered any explanation OF his
presence until he had stood for there
three or four minutes. Then woman
from Arkansas laid aside her snuff stick
and observed:
Really, now. II was home should
reckon that feller meant shute, and /
should hurry to make myself skass."
HE can't want TO shoot none OF u.s."
replied one of tho men.
Guess I'll mako shore OF that by
walfin' him up said Georgian. as he
got out his revolver. Before he could
fire there was tho report Of a gun behind
us, followed by yell, and native
climbed over tho bales, gun in hand,
and started to cross the double tracks.
He was not yet over the first when there
was shot from the bushes, and the man
in front of us spun around like top,
dropped his gun, and fell upon the rails.
Then, before any OF us had moved,
second native came out of the bushes
with smoking gun in his hand, and as
he bent ovor the figure on the ground he
laughed: f'fa a

nlceTY IN DRESS.

Elegance. Not Showiness, Is Commend
abba In - Lady's Toilet
Nicoty In dress may not always bo ac-
companicd by goodness In the wearer,
yet 1t is apt TO be so construed. The
betrothcd wife OF an estimable young
man was recently visiting his mother.
Tho members Of both families we're de-
lighted. The chaps mother was dazzlel
by tho beauty, the breeding and elc-
gancc of her prospective daughter-in-
law. Strange to say. however. on the
day after the young girl had begun her
visit the mother called her son to hcr
and spoke gravely to him about his
promised BRIDE ''IIarry," said size.
"Alice invi ted me into her room to-day,
and. oh, my 10y. she doesn't dress like
a lady at all. I'm afraid, Harry, really
am"
Harry smothercd his Indignation and
begged his mother to explain herself.
well. you see" said the latter. "in-
stoad OF nico white linen. all herundor-
wcar IS black silk. Every item is of
that material. and when spoke OF 1t
sho showed me trunks full OF clothes in
every tint of silk imaginable, and no
linen at all. This was bad enough.
Harry, but her garters had jewelcd
clasps on them. Oh, my son. you never
knew OF a girl OF real refinement to
get herself up in that style. feel cer-
tain that some thing that we do not
know about Alice's disposition will come
out sooner or later"
In great rage at his mothers impu-
tation, Harry left the house. When he
returned he did not rccur to the subject,
and his mother refraincd from l,roach-
ing it again, though her whole manner
indicated her fears concerning her sons
iancee. A week later, however, the
girl cloped with mn advcnturer.
II should always" says Harry's
mother, doubt n young lady who could
not take pride in fine linen, and am
positive that no modest girl ever wore q
joweled garter Such a thing could not
be the gift OF her father or mother, and
she would certainly not buy 1t herself"
And fancy II is fact that really OK
luisite girls avoid elaborate fads in un-
icrwear, and that elegance, not showi-
ness, is commcndable in fashionable
lresser. - Boston Herald.

Sights and Scenes of = Sunday Afternoon
at the Famous Pleasure Resort.
The steam motor line was again taxed to
it's limited capacity yesterday to carry the
many hundred visitors to the Hotel Broad
water, the big plunge and the lake. It was
a pleasant and refreshing sight to see the
mass Of families enjoying themselves
around the luxurious resort, the equal of
which is not to be found in the world.
Hundreds enjoyed the bath, while others
sailed on the lake in the new row-boats.
Here croquet party might be seen, while a
glance around the grounds showed many
people resting among the shady hooks,
reading or conversing with friends, while
the many asphalt promenades and hotel
balconies were crowded with people, and
the merry prattle of children, the hurrying
to and fro of elegant carriages
with prancing horses and full dressed
livery. the sparkling fountains everywhere,
green lawns and beautiful flower beds, pre-
scented altogether scene of life rarely met
in many big metropolitan towns where they

given to the people of Helena a pleasure re-
sort of which the Queen city may feel
proud, and the magniicence and value of
the place cannot be comprehended at a
thought. Its attractiveness grows ON the
people every time it is visited, and the

TWO SMALL FIRES.

The Efficiency Of the Fire Apparatus
Tested on Two Occasions Yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon about 2 O'Clock an
alarm of fire was sounded from the watch
tower, and by the time the bell was struck
a half dozen times the fire brigade. with
hose cart and hook and ladder, were on
the way to the scene of the confagration,
followed by large concourse of people.
The Vega saloon. adjoining the old Saliva
ton army barracks, on north Main street,
was found to be on fire, and in very short
space of time two streams of water were
playing on the flames. The damage did
not amount to much, as the structure was a
small frame shack not worth more than
$50. and the fire was subdued before it
had gained much Roadway. It was caused
by the burning of pile of rubbish in the
back yard which Communicated to the
building.
At $3.50 o'clock another alarm was sent in
from the third ward. A trunk and valise
in a store-house belonging to Greenhood,
BONN Il Co. caught fire. probably from
combustibles inside. The department re-
sponded. but the ire was put out with few
buckets of water.
