our business. We just travels about
the country tradin' horses. This man,
Jim Nivens, came out to our camp and
said he wanted to trade for horse 1
had. told him I would trade. He
said he wanted SO boot. 1 said
would not give it. Just then, my
brother, the big fellow, came riding
along on a nice little horse that could
trot just splendid. Mr.. Nivens said,
That's the horse ] want to trade for
1 said, That's the horse 1 want to
trade you, and I'll take SO boot
He said, I'll give you my horse for
yours said, All right; tits trade
He said, Now you remember that's
my horse, and this is yours 1 said,
'All right and then he asked me if
my horse was sound. If he had asked
me that question at first, would have
talked about something else; but as
We had done traded, I told him, No
stranger; he amt sound-he's bel
lows He did not say anything, but
went back over into Rock Hill and
Dragged about what good horse he had
got for an old rip that would kick the
buggy all to pieces. Now, he comes
back and wants $50 damages"
The story of the young gypsy was
about all that could be gathered as to
the merits of the case. The big fell
low, though grumbling but little at
the law that holds his property tied up
until the 29th of May, talked as if he
would like to punch somebody for
round or two. The matter was settled
temporarily by the gypsies taking
back their property and giving bond
of indemnity for damages and costs,
in the sum of 500. When the case
comes up on its merits, it will no
doubt prove of great interest to the
horse swapping fraternity throughout
the county.

DEATH OF MIR. RUFUS A. PARISH.

Mr.. r. A. Parish, for many years a
we'll known and very popular citizen
of Yorkville, died at his home in this
place at 10 o'clock last Monday night,
after having been confined to his bed
for twelve weeks. His death was due
to a complication of disorders, mainly
attributable to exhaustion of the diges-
tive organs.
Mr.. Parish was a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. Leander Parish, who live on
the northwestern outskirts of York
vile, and was born at the home still
occupied by his parents, on the 5th of
April, 1855. He first came to York
vile about 1878, and after going to
school and clerking for several years,
went into business for himself about
the year 1879. He continued in ac-
tive business until the 1st of January
of this year, when he went on the
road as travelling salesman for
Baltimore grocery house. Shortly af-
ter entering upon this last mentioned
work, his health, which had for some
time been bad, broke down entirely,
and he had to go to bed with what
proved to be his last illness.
On account of his many companion
able qualities, Mr.. Parish was held in
high esteem by hosts Of friends among
the young men ofthe town and vicinity,
especially men ofhis own age. He was
a member of the Masonic fraternity,
Legion of Honor, Knights of Pythias,
fire department, and from the time of
its organization, of the Jenkins Rifles.
At the time the rifle company was dis
banded, he was its captain.
Though never having been connected
with any church, on the day before his
death, Mr.. Parish professed his faith
aud was baptized by Rev. DR.. S. A.
Weber, pastor of Trinity Methodist
church.
The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon, under Masonic auspices,
and the remains were followed to the

Clemson's Good Luck.

Clemson's Good Luck.
Clemson college is better off than has
all along been believed by just s10,-
900. The trustees asked the recent
session of the legislature for $4,000.
The understanding has been that the
legislature appropriated only 500, 500.
1t has been discovered, however, that
the appropriation is $4,000, and the
trustees will arrange to pay students
for labor the same as heretofore.

Curacao is made by digesting orange
peel in sweetened spirits and favored
with cinnamon, cloves or mace. Kisch-
enwasser is distilled from cherries. Yer
mnth is composed of white wine, angel
lea, absinthe, and aromatic herbs. Kim
mel is brandy sweetened and favored
with coriander and caraway seeds. Tea
has been grown and used in the East for
ages, from India to Japan. Coffee was
introduced into Persia in 875, and into
Europe in 1915. Cocoa was sent to
Europe from Mexico by the Spaniards
in 1920. Eating is more important than
drinking, and especially on a journey.
When travelling, you should take the

The Evolution In the Means o! Transport
tatiOn.
The great popularity Of the G. NJ. Il
st. P. Ry. with the travelling public was
never more conclusively demonstrated
than during the period of the Worlds
Fair. The unprecedented passenger
business handled by this road at that
time between the Northwest and Chi
cago is without parallel in the history of
railroading in the Western States.
There has been an evolution in the
means Of transportation for man that is
very interesting. The more civilized a
people becomes the more exacting it
grows. The coaches now running be-
tween the Twin Cities and Chicago on
''The Milwaukee" are marvels of elegance
and convenience. The private compart-

and free reclining chair cars are models
of luxurious comfort, which in style and

five years of age, having been built up
almost altogether since statehood, it will
be seen that the showing is an excellent
one. Secretary Dahl has now an ar
rangement Of exchange, whereby the
state secures court reports of all states
in exchange for it's own, and, in addition
to this, the library is a subscriber to
twenty different law publications, in
Guiding all Of value in the United States.
For a new state, North Dakota, has an
excellent law library, and it is being i'm
proved each day in extent and in the
value of its possessions, which now is
about $4,000.
Judges Wallin and Corlies have Offices
nearly adjoining the library, Judge Cor
liss having that formerly occupied by
the superintendent Of public instruc-
ton, and Judge Wallin the n just OPP
posite. The railroad commissioners, also,
are having a new Office fitted up for
them, on the first floor of the addition
and just at the left OF the entrance.
Outside of the buildings, a number of
convicts are at work, blasting and break
ing stone, for the construction of a ter
race wall. This will extend about the
building on three sides, and will be from
three to four feet in height, and built of
stone which is taken from the surround
ing hills. In front, it will extend from
side to side, a hundred feet east and
west of the building, at a distance of
about fifty feet from the front. The
entire enclosure will be filled up to a
level with the wall, and in front, where
now is a large expanse of sand and
gravel, wlll.b 70 a handsome lawn, which will
add materially to the appearance of the
grounds. Altogether, the capitol and
site are undergoing a thorough enova
ton, regeneration, and improvement,
which will make it one of the best kept
institutions in the state, and a source of
pride and pleasure to its citizens.

Plummer and standish.

1t is a cold day when Col. Plummer
can't tell a good story, and his latest is
on General Standlsh.
"You know he has read everything
from Archbishop Walsh to Coins
Financial school, and it drove him to
writing" says the colonel in st. Paul
Pioneer Press. "It is said that he has
thirty thousand volumes of his own
composition which he cannot get printed.
It is all about the silver question. He
keeps ali his manuscripts in his office at
Lakota and spends most of his time in
looking for victims to read some of the
stuff to. When he captures a stranger
he drags him into the Office, locks the
door and tells him how the country was
ruined by the demonstration of silver.
well, a couple OF weeks ago he cap
tured a German travelling man from
Milwaukee and induced him to enter his
Office. The traveller was dry and he didn't
know IN just what form a drink might
turn up, SO he went with Standish.
Standish locked the door, set his victim
down and got out his latest work. There
were three or four thousand pages of
the matter, and he started at it,. The
traveller saw that he had fallen into a
trap, so he lit a cigar and settled down
for a nap. When Standlsh gets talking
he doesn't pay any attention to his
audience, and he read for a couple Of
hours without looking at the victim.
Suddenly he noticed him and awakened
the sleeper by shouting out something
ending in the words free silver. You all
know how q man will wake up suddenly
in church and catch a couple of the last
words of the sermon. That was the
way with the German. Standish glared
at him and said, We'll. sir, what do you
think OF that?'
"'I always thought said the German,
that silver ought to be put on the free
list"

"Jane,"

Manager Wakeman has an exceptional
attraction booked for June 20, in Froh-
mans "Jane." "Jane" is taken from a
French source. A wild young man who
had property left him in case he marries
communicates in a fit of desperation, in
duced by debt, with his trustee, inform
ing him that he is about to take into
himself a wife. His obligations are dis
charged and the payment of a regular
income begins. Improvidence leads him
into debt again, and he appeals for
money on the ground that his wife is ex-
travagant. The trustee writes that he
will visit London and demonstrate with
the little woman. In his dilemma the
young fellow induces Jane, his house
maid, who has just been secretly married
to William, the man servant, to agree to
pose as his wife during the old trustees
visit. The consequent deception of the
old gentleman, the borrowing of a baby,
and the agony of the bridegroom, Will
liam, furnish the hilorious fun which
follows.
