Say Good Words.

The teacher who educates your chill
dren tolls on year after year doing her
duty and often more than her duty. She
may train them in the perfect way,
making them grow to noble manhood
and wOmanhood, but never a word Of
appreciation does she hear. Let her
make mistake, however; let some
thing 90 wrong, and you denounce her
in terms of the severest blame.
The newspaper writer gives his life
time to writing things that will be
helpful to his readers. 1t is his daily
and nightly thought how he will inter
est them, instruct them and give them
new courage when they are weary and
disheartened. Never a word of praise
do yon give him. If he says anything
you do not like, however. like lightning
descend the bolts ofyour wrath. He
hears from you then-he does indeed.
che office boy and the little errand
girl-mere children, ignorant, blunder-
ing and timid-come into your employ
when they ought to be playing out
doors. They do their poor best and
grow pale and nervous, like over
worked grown people, while yet they
are children. You score them for their
mistakes and shortcomings; you threat
en- them with discharge: you talk to
them cruelty. Do you ever praise them
when they do we'll? DO you ever say
one kind, appreciative word to those
whose task it is TO please your Such a
word would sweeten life to them for
days. 1t would be like mama 10 the
wilderness. It might inspire their
whole future lives. DO you ever say it?
1t is a cruel, needless world.

Found at Last.

Editcr Joseph Medill Of the Chicago
Tribune has handsome buff and white
villa at Los Angeles. He lives there
part of the time, managing his paper by
telegraph and indulglDg his fads, OF
which he mas d mum Der, and he is right.
No man is wholly happy without fads.
One of Editor Medills fads Is the foun-
tain of youth, which he described TO a
newspaper correspondent lately. Tne
fountain itself is in the San Bernardino
mountains and is nothing else than a
great reservoir of melted snow. The
show water is the purest in the world,
Mr.. Medill thinks, and he drinks 1t IN
great quantity, so that 1t will wash
away the lime IN his system. 1t is lime
in the system that makes people get old
and die, in the judgment Of The Trib.
une's veteran editor. Mr. Medill nim-
self is now 73 years old and has had time
to get considerable lime into him. This
choked him up, blood and bones, till it
gave him rheumatic gout. He went to
various springs in Europe and America
to get cured, but all were no good.
Then he studied into the science of
rheumatism and gout and concluded
drinking distilled water would wash
oGt the lime that had gathered about
his j5ints. That helped some, but it
was reserved for the snow water OF
San Bernardino to complete the cure.
1t is not eating so much as drinking
that fills the body up with lime, he
contends. If, therefore, mankind will
flush themselves, so to speak, with
chemically pure water, not whiskey,
even of the oispensary brand, they will
clear themselves out and staVe off old
age. Mr. Medill claims that he is re-
newing his youth on snow water.

burning of negro in Olchita supposed

TO which some one set fire aud he beng
unabls 10 escape, perished in the hames.
One report says he was shot aud then

Did Not Expac. 1t.

The Charleston Snn records rather
an amusing incident in connection
with the recent letter Of Congressman
McLaurip. According to the Suns
story "Professor Marchant queried the
Congressman as to whether he, Mar
chant, was the object of the formers
descript in his letter Of 'one of their
little creatures, a peripatetic school
teacher, who wants to be superinLend-
ent of education McLaurIn frankly
replied that Marchant was the person
be meant. Whereupon MarchahG says
his friends advised him to hit back,
but he was afraid of man who would
say to his face what he had intended
for him in print. That such man
must be 'mad-meaning crazy. This
Indicates the curious state Of mind that
the customary equiVocaIiOn and dodg-
ing of public men has given rise to.
Marchant knew, as others knew. that
McLaurin referred to him. But he
thought on putting the question di-
rectlY to him that McLauTln would, as
usual IN such cases, find 2 way out of
it by evasion. To the Professors blank
amazement McLaurin simply replied
that he did mean him. Such "lrect-
uess left the Professor without a word
of reply. In these eqUiVOcating and
damagogueic tip es such az Incident IS
refreshing"

THE SENATORIAL FIGHT
Bstwsen Butler and TIllman Likely t, be
Warm.

WASHINGTON, May l1.-About the
middle of next month one of the hottest
campaigns ever waged in South Carolina
will be opened between Senator Butler
and Governor Tiliman for Senatorial
hoaors. Senator IrbY, the junior Sena
tor from the Pa.metto State, Is chaIr-
man of the State Democratic committee,
and it is incumbent upon him to start
the ball rolling. He says he proposes
to call the State executive committee
together on the 7th of June, aud IL
about weeek or ten days following
Senator Butler and Governor Tillman
will commence their Joint canvass. 1t
will probably be bitter personal strug-
gle between them, for Senator Butler ls
anxious to retain his seat in the Senate,
and Governor Tlllman has been bending
all of his political and personal energies
to be elected az Ssuator Buffers success
sor. Both of them are good stu np speak
ers aud they are to speak together tfonl
the same platform all over the State.
Senator Butler is an aggressive cam
paigner, and he and the Governor have
been shying political bricks at eacl other
at long range tor several months past.
When they come together on the same
stump thele will probably be some
stirring appeals to their respective fol-
lowers, and those who are familiar with
the characteristics of the two predict an
exciting contest from start to finish.
Both men are past masters in the art OF
working upon the passions OF their re-
spective followers, and the combat will
take on national as well as local ma
vor in view of Senator Buffers pron!n-
ence in the Senate and also because OF
the notorietY Governor Tillman has ac-
quired by reason Of his famous dispen-
sary liquor law.
South Carolinians here are anxiouslY
awaiting for the battle royal to COM
mence, and at the present writing both
sides appear to be about equally confi-
dent OF victory. 4 well-knOWn South
Carolina Congressman, who is supposed
to have a slight leaning towards Sena-
tor Butler, for personal reasons. but
who has heretofore affiliated with TIE
llllu&u LIOHSiucQG III LlC DLdlC, NS-S
asked to-day for his opinion as to the
probable outcome. He replied that be
looked for a desperate struggle between
Senator Butler and Governor TllImsn on
the stump. and that at the present time
it was difficult to pick winner. Sena,
tor Butler is supposed to represent the
Conservative or National Admluistra-
tional wing of the South Carolina Demo-
cracy, while Governor T'lIman is the
Leader OF The Anti National Admlnlstra-
ton. Farmers Alliarce-Popullst forces
N the State. The Governor has the ad-
vantage of being surrounded by the State
organization and the political machinery
absolutely at his control. Senator But
Ter has made advances 10 some OF the
Governors men bv assisting them and
their friends in securing Federal patron
age, but in doing 80 it is claimed that be
has driven some Of the Conservatives
from hls camp, and therefore it is a qnes-
ton whether bis recruits from the TIL
man camp have exceeded the desertIons
from his standard among the Conse1Va'
tiyes.-NeTs and Courier.

INDIAN WAR AT ROCK HILL.
Catawbs Braves at Odds--The Whole
Tribe May Become Involved,

Rock Hull, S. c., May War has
oeen declared among tbs Catawba
barves, with a prohs bilitY that the whole
tribe will become involved.
Each year the State of South Carolina
appropriates $500 TO the remnant CT the
Calawba Indians in this county. This
money is distributed among the mem.
bers of the tribe By Capt. A. +. Smith,
the agent. The tribe now numbers six.
ty.elght Indians and half-breeds, and the
custom has been to distribute the fund
among the pure bloods and such OF the
half-breeds az have Iu6iau mothers never
among the ha!f-breeds whose fathers
only are Indians. Under the rules Of
the tribe as they have existed Cor genera
tons, so We are informed, children only
lcherit from their mothers, never fcom
their fathers. This fact ls the cause OF
the present trouble. JEFF Davis Ayers
is q member Of the t.ibe. About seven
years ago be was lawfully married to
white woman, who has borne three chill
dren by her husband. Of these children
one is six years old, another four years
and the youngest one year.
Thursday all the Indians came to
town to draw the money appropriated
by tie State, but before the distribution
could be effected Ayers learned that the
agent would observe the rules of the
tribe and bot apportion the money
among the children OF any white woman
who was the wife Of an Indian, mas.
much as no part of the fund was appro-
praited for while woman, and under
the tribal regulation children could Only
inherit from their mother. Ii she had no
CLAIMS upon the fund, the children would
have none. This regulation deprived
Ayers's children Of any part in the dis
tribution. Finding this was the condi-
ton Of aH airs. Thursday morning, Ayers
made demand upon the Indian Agent
through his attorney. w. 3. Wilson,
E:q, for his children's par of the fund,
but the agent has not yet made the dis
tributlon, as the Indians threaten to hold
bis bondsmen responsible if he pays any
money to the Ayers children.
Thus matters stood Thursday morn
ing when Ayers approached number
OF his comrades who where standing on
Main street. They denounced him for
delaying the payment of the money. One
burlY tellow, John Brown became furi
ously mad and assaulted Ayers, when
the women interfered and general fight
was imminent. The chiefof police hap.
pened to be on hand aud nabbed Brown.
but he resisted and jerking the chiefs
walking stick out Of his had, threw it
into the street. About this time Police
man Carroll reinforced the chief and the
two hurried Brown off 70 the guard house.
He was subsequently, taken before the
mayor and fined Sl5 or thirty days. He
failed to pay up and is now in the jug

Il Slanderous LIE.

On the second page of this weeks
Times and Democrat will be found an
article taken from the New York Sun,
which contains as ouch down right
Icing as any article we ever remember
reading. The article il question pur-
ports to be the observations Of gen
tienan who has lived in South Carolina
fifteen wears on what he calls the
"cracker" element of this State. 1t
virtually classes the entire farming
population Of South Carolina as "crack-
er8." They are said to be descendants
of pirates driven from the seas and
c0nvictS imported as slaves from the
cid country and are described as being
drunkards, assas8ins and ioafers by in
heritance, instinct and custom. The
Greenyille News Gays it doubts "if the
man who gave the interview was ever
iG South Carolina longer than week
at q time. His whole story bears eVl.
depce Of dense ignorance regarding the
people of this State and Of a purpose to
injure the State as whole. 1t reads
like the production Of one of the fel-
lows who write Southern dialect stories
for Northern magazines and most OF
whom have never been this side the
Potomac river and never seen live
Southerner. Anybody who has even
the slightest acquaintance with the
people OF the State generally knows
that tie South Carolina countrymen
are the cleanest blooded population IL
the Union. The great majority Of them
are from Scotch, Scotch Irish and Eng
l!Sh ancestors. Their appearance IS
evidence enough Of that and a wonder
fully large proportion Of them are dl-
rect descendants 0f revolutionary fam
lies. IN very plain houses and among
very plain and unpTetending people we
