George Vanderbilt says the story
that he is to built a railroad from
Knoxville, Tenn, via Anderson to
the Atlantic coast, which has been
going the rounds of the press, ls
without foundation. The Wander
bilts sometimes buy roads already
built but never build them, on the
principle that "fools build fine
bouses and wise men live in them"

HARD ON PREACHERS.

There were several colored
preachers standing around and
they seemed to excite Johnson's
ire. He paid his respects to them
in very strong and emphatic Ian
guage. After grumbling out some
thing about shell being filled with
such people," he said: "Ebry d-n
colored preacher is for de Straight
outs, but den where de money lies
desc preachers lies. Dey's trying
to lead we, but Use got my eyes Oh
dem and I'll ketch 'em. De colored
people amt gwine to be sech fools

WATCHED THE WEATHER.

Turning to some colored men
who were standing to one side,
Johnson said: "You niggers is
d-n fools and rebber notice moth

When desc Straightouts meets here

day night dey meets here and e

PHILOSOPHY OF POLITICS.

According to his auditors john
son hit the bell and made it ring
when he delivered the following
observation: "De Tillmanites is al

dear people, my people, and de
Straightouts is always talkin' about
de State" de dear State, our gran
ole State I'll tell you how it all is.

ple' is satisfied, an wen be don't

AN INDIGNANT PROTEST.

When Johnson found the doors
barred, he said: "Graat God, desc
people want my vote and den shet
me out like dat. / did tink to go
wild de blooded people, but if dey
treat me dat way I can't do it.

The Nights Incidents.

Columbia Register.
1t is beyond question that the
crowd outside the hall of the House
of Representatives Tuesday night
had more fun than those inside.
Around the doors and on the steps
and on the gallaries was a laugh
ing, pushing, jolly throng which
amused itself in various ways,
telling jokes, playing pranks and
making fun of the convention and
the delegates who went out and in.
There were many incidents worthy
of the reporters pencils, but those
worthless were toe busy trying to
find out what the convention was
doing to note minor occurrences
around them.
A TALKER FROM WAY BACK.
In the crowd outside the door
was a colored man named Noah
Johnson who knew a thing or two
and had no objection to telling
them. He had plenty of hard
common sense and put many of
his thoughts in pithy shape. He
was originally from Fairfield, but
many in the crowd knew and liked
him. When he stopped they would
urge him on by questions, for his
amusing remarks robbed waiting
of it's tedium.
When be marched up the steps
be walked up to the door. Finding
it locked and guarded, he expressed
his grievance in manner which
attracted crowd around him. His
voice IS more o. borean blast
than zephric whisper, and a po-
liceman told him to close his fly
trap. His white friends, however,
told him to go ahead and informed
the policeman that "it was all
right"

There is no medicine so often
needed in every home and so admir-
ably adapted to the purposes for
which it is intended as Chamber
lains Pain Balm. Hardly a week
passes but some member of the
family has need of it. A toothache
or headache may be cured by it.
A touch of rheumatism or neural
gia quoted. The severe pain of a
burn or scald promptly relieved and
the sore healed in much less time
than when medicine has to be sent
for. A sprain may be promptly
treated before inflammation sets in,
which insures a cure in about one
third the time other required. Cuts
and bruises should receive immedi-
ate attention before the parts be-
come swollen, which can only be
done when Pain Balm is kept at
hand. A sore throat may be cured
before it becomes serious, A trou-
blesome corn may be removed by
applying it twice day for a week
or two. A lame back may be cured
and several days of valuable time
saved, or a pain in the side or chest
relieved without paying doctor
bill. Procure a 80 cent bottle at
once and you will never regret it.

A BOOMING YOUNG CITY.

Not everybody knows that a
booming young city is coming to
the front out forty miles north of
Texarkana, on the Texarkana 4 TT.
Smith railroad, but it is fact rev.
erthless.
Winthrop is the name of this city,
and, in view of its fine location, at
the soon to-be terminus of one rail
road, and the principal inland town
on another, its fame is not surpris.
ing. The Texarkana & Fort Smith
road will soon be completed to it,
and branch railroad will be built
out to Rocky Comfort. This will
give it two railroads.
Winthrop is located on beauti-
full, high plateau, midway between
the Red and Little rivers, with no
city of consequence nearer than
Texarkana, and being only six
miles from the Indian Territory,
may hope for big trade from this
fertile region.
A splendid opportunity is now
afforded investors, as well as per-
sons seeking a desirable location for
for new home. The following
persons have bought lots, within
the past few days: NJ. H. Bales
of Ohio, S. B. Andrews, NJ. D. Til

Now is the time to invest, as
choice business lots can be had for
$75 and best resident lots for $25.
