Sunday morning the large ceiling in
the post office workroom in the new gov
eminent building at PASSPORT fell. The
room happened to be unoccupied at the
time and nobody was injured. On a
week day clerks would certainly have
been under that part of the ceiling. The
ing has been occupied less than three
years and this is the second accident of
the kind, the ceiling of the weather
bureau office on the third floor having
fallen over year ago. smashing instru-
., ents and gas fixtures and wrecking the
Office. The building cost over $120, 600.

Some weeks ago man named Lufkin,
living in Orrington, had IS sheep killed,
and at first he supposed that all of the
sheep had been killed by dogs in his town
and he consequently entered claim
for pay. An order was drawn by the
town officers of Orrington to pay Mr..
Lufkin, but before he got the order cashed
it was asceItained that IA of the sheep in
question had been killed in Brewer, and
on learning this Orrington stopped the
payment of the order. Now Mr.. Lufkin
wants Brewer to settle for the Il sheep
killed within bounds of that city.

by large crowds OF people

der preteXt of hiring her to care for his
sick wife. He took her TO the house Of
one Morris. giving a fictitious name for
his own real name. Here she was fore
IDLY detained and RansbottOm succeed

CUSIER'S HEROES,

Site OF the Little Big Herr Battle

Cemetery-262 Little
:. White Slabs.

~ Ut IN Southwestern Montana,
4 about sixty miles from Bill
ings and ten miles from Fort
Custer, IS q National GENE
tery. This deaths acre is the site Of
the most tragic and desperate battle
in our military histo-y-the battle Of
the Little Big Horn. Here Custer,
with the gallant Seventh Cavalry, two
hundred and sizty-two strong, met
the Indians on June 25, 1875, and not
one Of those brave men was left to tell
the story; only 262 little white slabs
clustering about the cross that marks
where Custer fell give mute evidence
St the heroisn and bravery SO veinly
displayed at that terribly fatal battle.
That the battle was fought cannot he
doubted. Custer was leading an at-
tack and had located the Indian village
IN the valley OF the Little Big Horn
and wss making forced march in the
night to fall up IN them before they
discovered his presence. The Indians,
however, discovered this plan and
when Custer realized this he attacked
them for fear they might escape. The
battle took place on the brow OF high
hill. which commands a view of the
whole valley of the Little Big Horn.
1t was not & massacre or ambush, for
this field stands out the most conspicu-
Gus in the whole valley, without trees,
shrubs, grass or weeds to conceal m

New Enemy to Cotton Which Threat

New Enemy to Cotton Which Threat
ems to Further Shorten the Crop.
A Blachril!e special to the News
and Courier says: While everywhere
else IS crying ''short cotton crop"
the bottom and middle crop in this
section has appeared but little below
the average of the past five years, if
any. It is ten to fifteen days later
than usual, general picking being just
about started. The top crop is very
uncertain; not only the contingency of
an early frost, but that the plant, over
stimulated by the excessive rains Of
last month, has succumbed to the in
tense and arid heat since, dying outin
many places and shedding young fruit
generally. But a more serious enemy
has appeared, affecting bottom, mid
die and top crop alike--a new sort Of
boil. worm. To the casual observer
the number of bolls shrivelled seemed
excessive, but it might be accounted
for by the seasons, A close observa-
ton discovered the intruder. Several
farmers on Monday took round for
miles in this section and found the
pest at work on every place visited.
The percentage of damage already
done was estimated on different fields
at 10 to 50 per cent.

The Conventions First Week.

The Conventions First Week.
The work of the first week Of the
Constitutional convention seems to
indicate that the following matters in
one shape or another are pretty Ger
tain to be contained in the Constitu-
ton:
1. An ordinance providing for general re-
ductiop Of the area Of counties, with a max
inum Of not more than 500 square miles.
2. An ordinance providing for biennial
sessions of the Legislature.
=. 8. An ordinance providing for election OF
all State and county officers every fourth In
stead OF every second year.
4. An ordnance in one shape or another
providing for the establishments OF county
courts, presided over by county judges.
5. Al ordinance regulating the payment
OF the school tax, SO that the taxpayer shall
have the right to designate to which OF the
public schools it shall be applied.
g. Such a regulation OF the liquor traffic
and manufacture as has been providing by
Mr.. EaEd.
Z. A general provision for the chartering
Of corporations.
8. A provision for the establishments OF
State board OF pardons.
8. That judges OF all State and county
courts be elected by the people
10. The establishment of Estate bureau Of
labor statistics and State labor commission
er.
These are the things that will, it
seems, be nearly certain to go through
without eneountering very much op-
position or exciting very great discus
sion except as to details.

Throughout Sumter county and par
ticularly in some sections there is the
finest corn crop that has been in years,
if, indeed, it has ever been equalled.
The cotton crop is about two thirds an
average, but the promise Of better
prices compensates for the falling off
in yield. There is besides decrease
in acreage from last year of about Is
per cent. which area was devoted to
tobacco and corn.

sumed 1884 bales Of these receipts,
