"Reminiscences of Froude.

Until year or two before his death
Froudo had retained much Of his youthful

He could still handle a gun, and he had
been a crack shot in his time When
aboard the tidy little craft that be kept at

he Was almost boyishly Clatc. Some

REPELLING TRAIN ROBBERS.
A New Plan of Defense Outlined by an Ar
my Officer.

Itmay safely be assumed that the point
Of attack" is the engine and then the eX-
press car, writes Lieutenant Wright in
The North American Review. Why, then,
not separate them as much as possible by
putting the express car the last in the
train? Have alarm bells on each coach
and sleeper, which can be rung by the eX-
press messenger when he is directed or re-
quested at this unusual TINE and place to
open the door of his car. MCaCh coach and
sleeper have, in a glass front case similar
70 those now in use for the ak and saw,
two repeating shotguns, each magazine
containing five buCkshOt cartridges, thus
giving from to II most effective wCap-
ons in the hands of the train crew and pas
sengcrs. The alarm bells should be cleo
trio, though it is believed that the ordi-
nary bcllcord could be made to serve the
purpose When the messenger sounds his
tOCsin of war, there would soon be a su1li-
cient force Of brave men at the express car
to give the robbers warm welcome. For
the latter to cover the engine cab and each
door and side of each coach or sleeper
would require a force of men too great in
numbers to make the divide profitable.
Besides the greater number of aCCOmpliCcs
or principals the greater the chances of a
capture and the possibility of some one
turning states evidence"
Under such an arrangement in the
makeup Of train, should the rear or eX-
press car be the sole point of attack, then
the first step would be to cut this car loose
from the train and then loot it. The au-
tomato airbrake would give the alarm to
the engineer, and he in turn, to the
coaches, or, better still, the concealed cleo
trio wire could be so arranged rs to sound
the alarm when the car parted from the
train. Should the engine, As in the past,
be the first point of attack, then the crew
and passengers (armed) have tho advan
tage of being between the forces of rob-
beers, and with every probability can throw
the greater number in the fight, and, Ma
poleOnlike, repulse or defeat in detail.
Under the present order of things the
crime of holding up" trains has become
one of almost daily occurrence And whyE
Because two. three or four men can sue
Cessfully effect it, and the i'll gotten gains
are large. Render the act one more diff
cult and dangerous of accomplishment,
and the attempts will be less frequent. 1t
matters not how invulnerablc the car, so
long as it remains in the train near the
engine it will offer but slight resistance
to the robber and his stick of dynamite.

Rip Van Wrinkle Again. After a
Long Absence.

Mr.. EDITOR: Having been q
listener at, and q locker on in the
wordy war between Semphronicus.
Geo. Johnstone, and Pedagogue,
several moons have waxed and
waned since I have wasted ink i'm
posing on printer and readers.
But having just returned from
the up country with the inner man
stuffed with beef steak and fried
chicken, I.feel under obligation to
the public to pour out another Jug
full of my eloquence(2) for their
inspection.
In travelling from Clark's Hill
to Ninety-Six a man of intelligence,
or woman either, would judge,
from the number of cane patches
on the road that the "sweet bye
and bye" SO often sung about had
arrived, for verify not only was
there cane patch every ten steps
on one side of the road but on the
other side also.
Roads tho much quarrelled about
are fairly good between the above
named points.
Corn and cotton, generally, are
better than usual. Considering
that people aoiU sell their. cotton
seed. crops are remarkably fine.
The venerable Mr.. Perry What
lev who lives eight miles below
Ninety-Six lies very i'll and seems
to be merely waiting for the end.
Truly it can be said a purer, no.
bier man never lived.
Now word to the wise: We the
giant denizens and hard kickers
of the west side respectfully ask
those who have the county chain
gang at their mercy to have the
Martin Town road leading from
Mathis's store to the North Au.
gusta grade put in good condition
as soon as possible for the road to
destruction is not more beset by
sloughs than than this road i'll tho
winter season. Nor was the high
way to Jerusalem ever travelled SC
much as this road.
We know the gang is yet small
but we will do all in our power to
enlarge it and the bosses mus 81 have
our road worked at no very distant
dey or Tillman must bear thf
blame in "pair of minutes"

Some Pertinent Suggestions
Upon the Time Honored
Question.

Some weeks back "L." of Ropers
had something to say in regard to
road working, and invited a dis
cussion of this very important
matter. The roads in this, the
south western portion of the coun-
ty, have SO long beens neglected or
patched up a little twice a year,
that it is now a bigjob to put them
in any thing like decent travel
ling order. Now I have this sug-
gestion to offer TO the township
boards:
Many of The oyerseers have 20
to 80 hands and but few tools
suited for the working among our
rocks. Require the overseers to
divide their hands into two or
three squads, work each squad one
day each, then begin and work
each squad another day and so con-
tinue until the road are made
good. In this way each hand
cosld have q good tool and the
overseer could keep that number
at work, which he could not well
do if had 25 or 80 to look after.
This of course would put q heavy
duty OIL she overseers. Well, I'd
pay these overseers one dollar per
day for each day they had served
more than their respective hands,
provided always, that they could
show up their respective roads in
fairly good condition the first OF
September of each year, and, pro-
vided further, that no one overseer
be paid more than $5 each year.
To raise this money let the town
ship board take a census of the
vehicles in their townships aud
