 5oOO-Mile Ticket.
 The members of the Travellers Pro- tective association are very much inter- ested in the 5000 mile tickets, and are bringing every possible influence to bear on the railroad officials to induce them to grant the same. At the meting recently held in Atlanta between the rate com mittee of railroads and a committee of forty commercial men the questions of issuing 5000 mileage books at cents per mile and an increase to 300 pounds in the allowance of baggage to travelling men were discussed.
 After discussing the matter for some time it was deferred until the Sth of June when the rate committee will again meet and render their decision.
 The rate committee Is composed of rep resentatives of nearly all the railroads of the south.

uousekeepers Want the Best Food.

Housekeepers want the Best Foous' What Scientists say:
 Prof. Arnold of the University of New York: 1T consider that each and every ingredient of oleomargarine but ter or butterine is perfectly pure and wholesome, that the oleomargarine butter differs in no essential manner from the butter made from cream. It is great discovery, D blessing for the poor, in every way perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article.
 Silver Churn Butterine is prepared especially for fine table use. Every de- tail of it's manufacture is perfect. Re- cent chemical experiments show that in nutritiye and digestive properties Silver Churn Butterine is fully equal to the best creamery butter; while in keeping quality Silver Churn Butterine is much superior

BETTER BRAINS,
The Men Who Have the Best Brains, and How
 They Get Them.

On every corner it is said that times are getting brighter and better. There is no doubt about it. We see it in the more active step and brighter looks of busi- ness men. But with better times comes closer application to business. A man must work his brains more to keep up with the procession. With closer appli- cation comes the need for good food to make brain power. Just here Pauls table d'hote becomes necessary. It gives a man better brains. One of the most important factors in the upward move ment Is this famous table dhote, for it makes a man feel better and work hard CT. Paul is a public benefactor.

His Brother-n-law Arrives in the City in Search of Him-He Left Samples Here

MT. J. N. Stanford of Pine Apple was in the city yesterday in further search of his. brother-in-law, c. R. Brown, who has mysteriously disappeared for some unknown cause.
 MT. Stanford, in conversation with an AgeHerald reporter said that he had traced Brown as far as this city He was at the Florence hotel on the 16th instant, and left a telescope containing his tobacco samples with MT. Butte, the chief clerk.
 Since that time he has not been seen or heard of, and no one can tell anything about him.
 MT. Butte states that when he last saw Brown he was in the best of spirits, and there did not seem to be anything unu- Sually the matter
 MT. Stanford says that Brown did not drink, and it was evidently not from domestic troubles that he disappeared

The Negro Question in South Caro-
lima.

The attempt to disenfranchise the
negro In South Carolina is being met
with a wild howl from a class of peo-
pie which is very loud-lunged in its
protestations of friendship for the ne
groes of the South, but whose alleged
philanthropic professions have seldom
brought forth more than talk. Rec
ognizing the fact that negro domino
ton threatens South Carolina, its peo-
pie are determined that the disgrace
full state of governmental affairs which
so ANONYMOUSLY branded Federal rule
Ia the South after the war shall never
occur again. South Carolinans are
brought face to face with a PROPOSE
ton which the educated Northern
'.friends of the negro" are very prone
to write about In magazines; that
proposition is the domination of polit-
ical affairs by the vote OF uneducated
and illiterate people.
From no quarter of the country has
com. more discussion of the education
al qualification for voting than from
the writer's of New England. Many of
them would add property qualifca-
ton also. Yet when South Carolina
attempts to accomplish what they
have advocated the uproar again arises
and the ..friends of the negro are
again to arms"
In the long run the Constitutional
convention will probably accomplish
more for the good of the South Caro-
lima negro than a million of these hyp-
ocritical philanthropists. If an edu-
cational and property qualification is
required for full citizenship. prem
ium will be placed upon citizenship.
In place of the right to vote being a
common and abused thing, it will be-
come a privilege which it will be an
honor to enjoy and take its rightful
position in the minds of men. 1t will
stir up the ambition of the illiterate
class and rouse men to work to better
themselves. Voting negroes will
claim and rightfully hold a superior
position among their fellows. Others
will aspire to the same position and in
the end it will list the average of in
telligence materially, and aid the ne
gro in taking a higher place in all
spheres of business and political life.
South Carolina. never backward in
the cause of what it believed to be
right, is taking the lead in this i'm
portant matter Other Southern states
may follow her example. In the
meanwhile, consistency and good taste
would demand silence upon the part of
the howlers. The people of the South
have proved to be true friends to the
race. They have provided the educa-
tional facilities wherewith to lift the
1lliterate and ignorant of that class to
the level of intelligence of the average
American 1t is for them to say what
is best to be done; for the good will
which they have shown and the init
mate knowledge of the conditions rem
der long distance abuse not only SUI
perfluous but ridiculous C. Times.
