TERRELL NOT COMING.
His Visit to South Carolina Has Been Put
Of Until Better Times.

Especial to Atlanta Constitution
COLUMBIA, S. c., October 5.-For
some unannouuced reason the coming
of Ben Terrell for the purpose of further
intoxicating populistic doctrine among
the reformers of South Carolina has
been postponed. A recent letter from
the third party leaders to ore Of the
county newspapers stated that be
would be here about the first Of this
month and that he would remain ir
the State for month.
Mr.. Terrell has not arrived and now
it is said that there is some significance
in his non-arrival, though just what
that significance is has not been deinl-
tely ascertsined so those not in tn
confidence of the populists.
The indications, however, are that
the true reason for Terrell's visit being
called off as that the times are not
propitious. This means great deal in
South Carolina, when it is remembered
that there are great many populists
masquerading under the of name De-
mocracy, by reason of which they have
q decided advantage in political mat
ters.
If these persons were obliged to ''un-
cover" which would be the case if
Terrell put in an appearance, they
would lose their hold on tie Demo-
cracy. The very persons who are RAM
pant for Terrell campaign are the
ones who have been protesting most
vigorously, that their Democracy is
twenty-four. carats fine. Terrell's COM
ing would reveal great many paste
diamonds. -
The statement is made by a third
party leader that "there is no end.of
fun ahead in this state"

On Wednesday September 9th, the
members of Grace Church visited the
parsonage. They came loaded with
baskets, packages aud bundles. Not
content with what they could carry
they loaded a wagon with good things
and it brought up the rear of the pro-
cession. The inmates of the parsonage
could not understand the significance
of such meeting at this season Of the
year, and they received their visitors
with fear and trembling not knowing
what the consequences might be. All
doubts were soon dispelled however
when the unloading process began.
Then they saw that they were receiving
a most generous pounding. Not a
pounding either, but donation, do
nation Of everything needed in a house
hold, q donation Of an abundance of
the substantials and the luxuries Of
life that maketh glad the heart Of
man. The money value of the articles
douated was $50. May God give
abundantIy unto them of the riches of
his grace. AS they have made glad
pastors heart by their thoughtful re-
membrance, may our heavenly
Father make their hearts to rejoice
with joy unspeakable.

of Col. D. Cardwell, of the Richmond
and Danville Road, in this city, met
his death by drowning in the Colum-
bia Canal, just where the Columbia,
Newberry and Laurens Railroad bridge
crosses the Canal. He was about Is
years age and was son of Capt. We
w. Tickling, the well-known locomo-
motive engineer. No one saw him fall
into the water. His hat was found up
stream on the other side of the bridge,
aud in it was wrapped the collar and
cravat he had been wearing, his hand
kerchief and pack of cigarettes. This
gave color to a theory that he had COM
.mitted suicide and had throwa the
things of on the other side of the
bridge before jumping off on this side.
Everything else, however, points to a
case of accidental drowning. Absolute
~ no cause why he should commit
suicide can be found. When first seen
he was struggling in the water and
calling for help. The bridge is about
forty feet above the water. The coro-
ner's jury found a verdict that the
young man came to his death from
accidental drowning. He was grand
son Of the late Francis w. Fickling,
the widely known Columbia lawyer.
