nish some handle for praise or
blame which Governor Tillmau's
previous uneventful life failed to
afford his opponents originally.
Senator Butler opposes to his
antagonist the trained and oft ap-
proved characteristics of the ex-
perienced athlete as against the
rustic wrestler whose native vigor
and hardness has been somewhat
improved in the school of affairs.
Both candidates are sprung
from the same Edgefeld soil.

they are prepared to meet9 aid

grounds of personal merit or Of

to incite them to put forth, each

expectation that the campaign
about to open will be fraught with
unusual interest would not seem
to be unwarranted.

The Tiuman-Butler Contest.

SharleSson gun.
The development of the State
campaign, which opens at Rock
Hill Monday with preliminary
sparring between the two Senatorial
candidates, Governor Tillman
and Senator Butler, may be Justly
anticipated with eager interst and
curiosity. The interest is intensi-
fed by the general impression that
the two men are not unevenly
matched. It must be said that in
the State campaigns heretofore
conducted according to the Till
man idea the farmer-statesman
did not mistake his peculiar field
of ability, and that he has out
classed those who have opposed
him with his chosen weapons aud
mode of warfare on the hustings,
in former contests.
The Edgefeld ploughboy, who
was unknown to fame until he was
near on to forty, sprung into the
arena which he had dictated, like
the fully-panoplied warrior from
the brain of Jove. His prepara-
tion for the conflict though re-
stricted was for that reason of a
concentrated and more powerful
character. With a little change
of phraseology the thought of
Tennyson in the lines
"Here about the fields he wandered.
Nourishing a youth sublime,
With the fairy tales of science
And the long results of time"
might appropriately be applied to
him.
There was the instinct Of a
socio-political wrong and his
savage fancy broodcd over it for
want Of other food and q wider
field of experience and latitude for
the expenditure of his suller
energy until the wrong was exag'
ageratediinto an abuse of intoler-
bic proportions-just such an ex-
eggeratioh as was necessary to ex'
cite and ignite the kindred instinct
in the popular bosom and to IN
lame the State with his idea
These are the elements which con,
stitute popular revolution, and II
is not stfange that the popular
champion swept all opposition be;
fore him. The impediment OF
speech disappeared before the
burning necessity for utterance
and the d 1lptutored tyro became at
once the Accomplished orator.

Children'S Day at Bars Chapel.
Falfa, June 18th.

The pastor failed to come, and
bring the speakers, and the Sun
day school failed to get the pro-
grams and everything looked like
it was at sea. But Miss Agnes
Morgan who teaches school there
had prepared the children with
pieces of her own selection, and l
must say that the recitations were
not only good, but showed the
good judgment Of the teacher in
all being appropriate to the occa-
sion. The children had only three
days time in which to memorize
and practice. They did remarka-
bly, we'll. We also had addresses
from young J. P. Mealing, son of
Rev. John Mealing, and from S. A.
Brunson, the Superintendent of
the Brunson Sunday school; and
if we did not have q preacher and
those who were to address the
school for the day, we had a nice
time and one that any one could
have enjoyed. You know it is very
trying to be called upon to get up
without any notice and make an
address, but the speakers showed
that they we're not only willing,
but able to do full justice to the
occasion.
After the recitations by the chill
dren and the addresses, there was
collection taken up and then We
went out to the table and your
humble servant took a hand and q
piece of chicken and q biscuit and
tart and another tart and q piece
of pic and another piece of pie anc
| a slice or two Of Miss Lou Glenn's
cake, and bad it not been fol
decency sake I expect | still would
be right there. But you know the
good things Of this life don't fall tc
our lot too often, and when we ge
a lick at them we hit 'cm hard.
After the inner man had beer
filled with good things we wen
back into the church and spent ar
hour in singing, the choir made NJ

last Sunday in public address
that one of the sublimest scnten-

consists of nine words of one

not forgotten the abuse received at

most of the candidates anticipate
the danger Of the Chronicles type.

A Hamlet In Danger.

PHILADELPHIA, May 23.-Advices from
all parts of the flooded district are to the
effect that the worst is over. The damage
done is as yet incalculable, and it will be
weeks perhaps before railroad traffic and
business generally resume their usual con
ditions, but the waters are receding rapid
ly, and there is no apparent danger.
Williamsport, which has suffered most,
is itself again. and business will be prompt
ly resumed. The pecuniary loss there is
as great as in 1889, but another day has
brought no news of loss of life.
The worst of the flood along the Schuyl
kill river in this city is believed to be over.
In individual cases, however, the condi
ton of the river is still dangerous One
of these is the outlying hamlet of Clear
view, composed of about 200 families and
built on the banks of the Schuylkill river,
near the mouths of Darby and Cobb's
creeks. These streams have risen with
alarming rapidity, and the people have
been driven by the water into the second
and third stories of their houses.

meant by prying up some of the paving
blocks along Bank street the past few days.
Mr. Meagher commenced at Hellmann's
brewery and has worked his way as far as
the Waterbury Traction company's new
building. Paving blocks are taken up
about twenty feet apart over the gas main
and an Investigation made for leaks. Mr.
Meagher discovered seven leaks along

Damage at OIean.

CLEAN, N. Y, May 23.-The great flood
is not past, but the worst is over. AS late
as last night scores of houses had water
running in the windows, and plenty had a
foot or more on their ground floors. All
fears of further danger is passed, but the
suffering has only just started. The poorer
classes of the city lived mostly in this dis
trict. Their houses are ruined. Their
gardens, barns and other small buildings
are gone, and their distress is great. Not
a single road was passable in East Olean
last night. Boats were in general use as
means of transportation. The Clean street
railway has probably ruined all the mo-
tors in it's cars except one. The rest got
caught in the floor, and only one car is

CASIMIR- PERIER IS OUT.
The French Premier and Cabi-
net Resign.
UNEXPECTED AND SUDDEN CRISIS

The Government Threw Down the Gaunt-
let to the Socialists, Who Retorted by a
Singing Defeat-Rumors That the Pre-
mier Was Riding For Fall.
PARIS, May 23-The government was
defeated in the chamber of deputies dur.
ing the debate on the question as to
whether the minister of public works had
the authority to allow the employees of the
state railroads to attend the congress of
the railroad men. The premier, M. CAST
mirPerier, demanded the adoption of the
order of the day pure and simple The
premier's motion was rejected by vote Of
275 to 225. NJ. CasimirPerier thereupon
left the Palais Bourbon, and the ministers
subsequently proceeded to'the Elysee pal
ace and handed their designations to Presi-
dent Carnot.
Previous to the defeat of the govern
ment the socialist deputy, M. Jules
Guesde, moved that eight hours be consti-
tuted legal days work for all working
people throughout France and demanded
urgency for the motion amid loud cheers
and encouraging cries from the socialists.
M. Guesde declared that the time was
ripe for the reform urgently demanded by
the workmen.
The remarks of the socialist deputy
called forth violent Interruptions from
the members of the Center party, who
openly abused the socialists. The latter
replied in warm terms, and the disturb
ance became SO great that the president
of the chamber was compelled to inter-
vene and with difficulty succeeded in re-
storing order.
Other speakers supported the motion,
and others still opposed it, and eventually
the minister of public works, M. Jonnart,
declared that the question was too grave
