The operation Of the new liquor law
in South Carolina, which makes the
State the dispenser of drinking fluids,
was begun in the midst of some trepi-
dation on the part of the Governor,
his feeling in this respect being due
to certain threats which came to him
relative to his own safety. In view of
these circumstances Governor Tillman
had the Executive Mansion guarded

Taylor and AStwOod will be confirmed.
Mr.. c. III. J. Taylor who read be-
fore the Bethel Literary on last Tuesday
evening and advised the negroes to
adopt politics in preference to any other
business should not be impressed with
the idea that they all can be as success
full as he. The negro has had too much
politics already.

FRIDAY EVENING. MARCH 81 1893.

ABRAnAM's ARK.--Abraham Martin,
an old colored man living in Atkinson,
Kan, believes that there is going to be
another flood. He claims to have had
o revelation in a dream, in which he
was instructed to prepare an ark like
Noah's of old. The size of the ark was
designated in the dream, and although
the quarters are too small for the ele-
plants and girafles, the old man has
confidence that the Lord will squeeze
them inside in some way.
Martin has figured it out by the Bible
that the flood will come next August.
He expects the menagerie, however, TO
begin arriving in June, when animals,
fowls, &C., will present themselves at
the ark in pairs. The old colored man
believes implicitly in the revelations"
he has had and has moved his family
into the ark.
''The Lord wants the earth peopled
entirely with black men," be said re-
Gently, "and no white people will be
taken on the boat. Only few very
black negroes will be admitted"
The ark is built of old pieces OF boards
picked up about town. Martin has
been over year building the craft
