financial issues in q somewhat desul-
tory manner aud then went out 10 a
blaze of anecdotes. He was called
upon for his views upon the tariff, but
he didn't accept the opportunity to dis
cuss it.
Col. John Gary Watts came next.
He referred to his connection with the
Citadel and said that personally he
had pleasant recollections of the city
and the people. His connection with
the Adjutant and Inspector Generals
Office especially qualified him for cleo
tion. He made some illusions to the
failure of the militia to respond "to the
call during the Darlington riot, which
procured for him considerable jeeripg
from the crowd.
Mr.. MayGeld closed the ball. The
crowd had diminished down greatly
and be wisely RETAINED from extended
remarks. He contented himself with
saying that be was opposed to the
fight against the South Carolina Col
lege and pledging his untiring support
to every educational institution in the
State. j. w. G.

Sermon to the Mayesv1lle Volun-

MAYEsvlLLE, S. c., July le, 1884.
The Rev D. u. Mcleod preached on last
evening most able and eloquent sermon at
the Presbyterian Church to the Mayesvile
Volunteers az recently organized military
company, A. u. 1zlar Captain. Mr.. Mcleod
is Chaplain eE,he company. His discourse
was certainly masterful and highly appre-
ciated. The church choir, with Mr. Harry H.
Corbett at the organ, rendered some superb
music. In addition to the regular church
choir, Mr.. and Mrs. S. S. Carroll, of the Bap-
tiss Church, and Mrs. W. j. Mcleod, Jr., of
the Methodist Church, assisted in making
some of the sweetest music listened to by
your correspondent in many day. The
whole choir certainly deserves credit for the
beautiful music rendered, as we'll as for the
perfect time given. Nj. Corbett certainly
handled the organ in mastery way. We
long for another occasion like this one and
hope it will not be long in coming, for it was
certainly something to be remembered.
The Mayesvllle Volunteers deserve great
credit for the way 10 which they acted on
this occasion, in keeping perfect time aud
order. The company now numbers some
thing over 40 and is continuing to grow.

A Tragic Death.

While Mr. Marion Cato's wagon was re-
turning home from Pisgah Church, Tuesday
night, the 10th instant the mule ran away
and threw out his fifteen year old sou, kill
ing him instantly breaking his neck. The
bride bit broke while going down hill, and
the animal became frightened. Others in the
wagon were thrown out, but not seriously
hurt. Trial Justice Shedd gave burial per-
nit, as the cause of death was too plain to
hold an inquest. Young Cato was buried at
Pisgah Church Thursday morning atec fun
eral exercises by Rev. T. W. Scruggs. A
large number Of people were present, who
showed their respect and sympathy for hr.
Cato in his affection. This is oae of the most
heartrending accidents that has ever occurred
in this section. and universal sorrow has been
expressed at the untimely death Of the young
man. }. +. y

Governor Tillman replied to Gen.
Butler by offering to have an exami-
nation of the d;spensary accounts,
and to sue Commissioner Trailer if
there was any shortage. AS to
exceeding the approprition made for
whiskey, he said he bought on a
credit. He had offered large
reward for white man because he
thought he deserved that much more
punishment than a negro. and he
could offer whatever reward he chose
to. The Governor berated Federal
Judge Simonton severely, declaring
that he ought to be impeached, be.
cuuse he had lent himself to money as
against man. He called Congress a
sset of scoundrels and driftwood," )"
and said Mr.. Carlisle bought his place

A Pure Baking Powder.

a baking powder that can be depended
upon to be free from lime and alum is a
desideratum in these days of adulterated food.
So far as can be judged from the official
reports, the "Royal' seems to be the only
one yet found by chemical analyses to be
entirely without one or the other of these
substances, and absolutely pure. This, it is
shown, results from the exclusive use by it's
manufacturers of cream of tartar specially
refined and prepared 10y patent processes
which totally remove the tartrate of lime and
other impurities. The cost of this chemically
pure cream of tartar is much greater than any
other, and it is used in no baking powder
except the "Royal," the manufacturers of
which control the patents under which it is
refined.
DR.. Edward G. Love, formerly analytica
chemist for'the q. S. Government, who made
the analyses for the New York State Board
of Health in their investigation of baking
powders, and whose intimate knowledge of
the ingredients of all those sold In this mar
ket enable him to speak authoritatively, says
of the purity, wholesomeness and superior
quality of the "Royal ~
81 find the Royal Baking Powder COM
posed of pure and wholesome Ingredients.
1t is cream of tartar powder, and does not
contain either alum or pbosphates or other
injurious substance"
Prof. Loves tests, and the recent official
tests by both the United States and Canadian
Governments, show the Royal Baking Pow
der to be superior to all others in strength
and leavesiug power. It's not only the most
economical in use, but makes the purest,
finest favored and most wholesome food

A Letter From Mayesville.

MA1Esv1LLs, S. c., July is. 1894.
The Chaplain Of the Mayesville Volunteers,
Rev. D. NJ. Mcleod preached 6ne sermon to
that military organization at the Presby terian
church here on Sunday 18th iust. The COM
,pany assembled at their armory about forty
strong, and were divided into two platoons
and four sections, each section being under
the immediate command of commissioned
officer. As the company neared the church, the
organ peaied forth march which continued
until the entire command was at their seats
The choir was made up of Mayesvilles best
talent and the singing was good. The
hymns were selected for and suited the occa-
sion The church was packed and every one
expressed themselves as delighted with the
sermon and we'll pleased with the Mayesville
stMezish.''
The Volunteers will commence to work in
earnest in a few days for the fair they propose
inaugurating. A fair will be '.juss the
thing" TO enliveo the town at this dull season
of the year. 1t is proposed 20 enter two
competing squads of the company to contest
for prize to be awarded to the best drilled
squad aod another prize to be awarded 10 the
best drilled man in the two squads-the last
will be the individual contest. This will be

the Governor from his seat.
Gen. Butler replied that the old sol.
diers in the crowd knew what that
meant. When Tillman had a chance
to fire his gun he didn't shoot. He had
spoken and then be had gone under
cover.

This riled the Governor, and coming
forward, he said: "You give me three

Confusion confounded ensued and the
Governor was finally hustled back to his
seat.
Gen. Butler then gave the Governor
some nuts to crack on the refundment
question. He read a brief Of all the
transactions in the funding of the
State debt. The foregoing statement
suggests the following inquiries
l. How much of the appropriation of
$4,000 was expended in the funding
transaction, and for what?
.. How much of the funds of the

and for what?
