Sec.rcd Freedom,

SPARTANEURG, S. c., Oct 16.-There
was great excitement created on the
street this morning by the announce
ment that the jail had been broken open
and number of the prisoners had escap-
ed. a representative OF The Register
went Immediately to the jail, and found
that eight of the sixteen prisoners had
gotten out. They were all III the day
room on which the various cells open and
taking advantage of the temporary ab
sence Of the Sheriff and his deputies they
tore down one Of the massive cell doors,
and using that as q battering ram sue
ceeded in breaking down the door to the
day room. They then descended to the
ground floor and picked the lock off
back door and freed themselves. They
were discovered by the negro cook just
as they were issuing from the jail. She
gave the alarm, but before the Sheriff
could be summoned they had all gotten
well away. Chase was Immediately
given. At this hour three o. them have
been retaken. Considerable excitement
prevailed, as several Of the escaped prls-
Oners are known to be des 0erate charaC-
ters. There is parties out in every dlrec-
ton searching the country, and all the
prisoners will soon be retaken.-Colum-

OBJECTLESSONS IN TARIFF.
Z Dad Campaign Document For the Re
publican PARTY,

WASHINGTON, Oct. i2.-Some OF the
Republican managers are disposed to
find fault with the retail merchants who
have taken advantage of the ne" tariff
law promptly to raise the prices Of their
wares. They insist that there is no
need for such an action this fall, because
the big dealers in all kinds Of merchan-
disc laid in a sufficient supply for six
months to come before the passage of
the law, and so can well afford to dis
pose of it at old prices. It is an expo
nent of greed that the politicians can
not condemn in strong enough Language.
The trouble is that the prompt rise in
prices of the common necessarle5 OF life
is bringing the Republican tariff home
to the masses of voters in way highly
unsatisfactory to those who made that
tariff. The Congressional Committee
wants to send out campaign document
telling the people that living is going to
be cheaper under the Mckinley act, but
with higher prices already asked in the
retail stores, such an assertion IS not
likely to be easily swallowed.
In fact, the managers greatly fear
that every merchant who has put up his
prices is making Democratic voters out
Of his customers. 1t is pity, they con-
fess, that the new law did not go into ef-
feet three or four months ago, OF not
until after election, So that its effect up
on prices might not have been felt, or
that this effect might have had its edge
taken off by long familiarity. As it is,
evidence is coming in at rate the com
mittee does not like that increased
prices are furnishing object lessons Of
the Republican tariff policy which are
doing the Democrats a great deal Of
good.
Those business men who have notyet
put up their prices are many of them
also open to Republican criticism, for
they are filing the advertising columns
of the newspapers with advice to the
people to ''buy now" before the figures
are forced up by the new tariff. This is
almost as bad as charging the higher
rates at once, for it is a notice that the
tariff will increase the cost of living.
Taken altogether, the high protective
tariff is not as good campaign docu-
ment as the Republican leaders wish it
was

THE NUPTlALS ARE OFF.
Tho Daughter OF the Confede-scy VIII
Not Wed

SYRACUSE, n. Y, Oct. 14-Ihe en-
gagement Of Miss Winnie Davis, the
Daughter Of the Confederacy," to Mr.
Alfred Wilkinson, of this city, which
was announced less than six months ago
and which created SO great surprise in
all sections of the country, viii never be
consummated. Very intimate friends
of Miss Davis here authorize this state
ment. They assign as the cause the Ill
health Of the young lady.
Now, that the run1o- first started from
the South, as it should properly, friends
of both are less reticent regarding the
matter.
1t seems that Miss Davis has not been
in good health for some time, and that
she went abroad for the purpose of re
cruiting her strength. Her trip was bene-
fetal, but it did not restore her fully to
health. Her mother and her intimate
friends feel that nnder these circum-
stances it were best that the prospected
marriage should be annulled, and this
step was most reluctantly taken by Miss
Davis.
On the other hand, some Of Mr.. Wilk-
inson's friends are Of the opinion that
the recent reverse of his family, his mod
crate income, and the still more recent
burning of the old homestead, had some
weight in shaping Miss Winnie's decis-
ion. There is general regret here that
the match will not take place, inasmuch
as it would have been one Of the most re-
markable and romantic marriages on re-
cord.
Mr.. Wilkinson has had nothing to say
about the matter, even to his most init
mate friends, and conducts himself adj
mirably under the trying ordeal. He re-
fuses to be interviewed on the subject.

CHOLERA INFANTUM.
1t Is Caused Largely BY Feeding BABY
Milk When 1t Wants Water.


No other disease excites SO much ter.
ror as Asiatic cholera. Yet cholera In
fantum far exceeds it as destroyer Of
human life. The invasions of Asistic
cholera have always been at long inter
walls; the ravages of cholera infantum
occur every summer.
In Philadelphia the average mortality
from all diseases during the more
healthy weeks is about three hundred;
but in 1872 there were in single week
in July, over five hundred deaths Of
children under five years of age In
1876, again. during the hottest week Ia
July, there were four hundred and
thirty-four deaths of infants under two
years of age, and matters were still
worse in New York.
The connection of this disease wishs
high temperature. and the special liz
bility to it of bottle-fed infants are uni.
versally admitted. Still, physicians
are not agreed as to its prec Sc nature
Dr. Meinert, of Dresden, Germany. has
been making careful investigations into
the subject, and thinks he has ascer
tanned the following among other facts
A high temperature with high wind is
not dangerous; but moderate tempers-
ture without wind increases the number
of cases and the mortality. Hot days
without wind are the worst. In
period of uniform high temperature,
there Is an increase of heat in the
dwellings, 6y accumulation. and a cor
responding increase of mortality.
insufficient ventilation renders the
inside temperature much higher than
the outside, and SO invites and aggra-
Yates the disease, which, for this reason
prevails in blocks more than in de-
tached houses Less disease was found
in the underground tenements and on
the upper floors, the first floor faring
worst apparently because of the heat
reflected from the pavement.
The great mortality of bottle-fed in
fants is due to their failure to be sup
piled with sufficient water, with which,
by its evaporation on the surface, the
normal temperature of the body is regu-
lated. The breast-fed child gets water
through its nurse, whose thirst induces
her to drink copiously.
The cry OF the bottie-fed infant for
water is met by giving it milk, which
is really food, and not only fails to fur
nish the needed fluid for evaporation,
but increases the feverish heat by dis
turbing the stomach and bowels
