AN EXASPERATED LANDLORDS "A
tale comes from the Nutmeg State of
a man who travelled much and was
well known wherever he went by
hotel men and others as q "prover-
bal kicker" Nothing was ever good
enough or bad enough. hot enough or
cold enough, rich enough or poor
enough for him. One day he went to
one Of the best hotels in the State and
put up for the night. His fame had
preceded him, and the landlord gave
orders to high and low to serve him
with the best, and to wait on him with
alacrity. His wishes we're all antici-
pated that night, and he vent to bed
as happy as u man like him could be
with nothing to growl about. in the
morning extra pains were taken with
his breakfast, after which tae land
lord went and inquired if everything
was all right, adding that he trusted
his breakfast has been satisfactory.
Well. it was fair" admitted the
guest, but | like a breakfast to be

Very well, SIR" responded the ex-
aspcrated landlord. eve have done our

The Governor Wants to Know
Whether or Not Liquor Drinking
is Increasing.
Columbia Register.
All the State will be interested to
know what part the Dispensary is tax
ing on the temperance line and to see
whether it is Il step in that direction.
The general impression is that the
Dispensary system is u great move to-
wards temperance and believed from
the start that it would be a great
thing for the whole State. But it can
hardly be said hat less whiskey is
being used when the State Liquor
Commissioners books show that over
twcnty-seven Thousand dollars was
taken in during the week closing with
last Saturday. The good price which
is being paid 70" cotton has a great
deal 10 do with the amount of whlskey
bought and sold. the State Dispen-
sary is working night and day and is
then not able to supply the demand.
Orders for the chemically pure
come in faster than they can be filled.
1t is hard to tell just what effect all
this liquor is having on the people.
Governor Evans is anxious to find out
whether drunkenness is on the in
crease or decrease, and to that end has
sent the following letter to the mayor
or intendant OF each town in the State
Office of State Board of Control,
Columbia, 5. c., Oct. 20, 1895.
Dear Sir: You will greatly oblige
me by answering the following ques-
tions at your earliest convenience.
This is important:
First. Has drunkenness and crime
increased or decreased in yonr town
and county since August LIST, 1894, to
the present time. and if so by what per
cent?
Second. Has the number of y!a;s
cases of drunkenness tried before your
court increased or decreased since
August lst, and if so by what per
cent?
Third. Has the consumption OF
wbiskey increased or decreased since
the establishment Of the Dispeusary,
and If so by what per cent?
Fourth. What has been the effect
of the Dispensary law upon tho general
good order and peace Of your town or
city?
Some time ago we had replies to
these queries from your Board of Con-
troll, but the letters have been dis
posed OF and it is important that we
hear from you. Please number your
answers to conform to the number of
questions above.

sention assembled q direct primary
for all the elective offices of the State.
This was true, genuine Democracy.
The people were satisfied with 1t, and
the first evidence OF the denial of the
right OF o majority of the people to
control came in the spring of this year
when O number of gentlemen-able,
honorable and influential upon both
sides-@came together and under q writ
ten contract agreed that in the selec-
lion OF delegCtes ,to this constitutional
convention, as fer as practicable, the
two factions In each county should
have equal representation. Perhaps
1t Ia known to every member in this
convention that ] was opposed to this
act, which was tantamOunt to the
Reputation Of all the people had
fought for and accomplished since
1890.
l have never been able to understand
many things connected with this agree
ment. / could understand why Mr..
Barnwell and MIR. Hemphill, the lead
ers OF q hopeless minority in the State,
should agree to an equal division Of
the power of this convention, but | re-
s%pectfully but humbly submit that it
passeth my comprehension why the
leader, Senator Tillman, of one of the
greatest movements ever known in
South Carolina, il not in the whole
South, could have agreed, without
qualms Of conscience, to q proposition
OF politics SO reckless, SO violative OF
every principle of Democracy, Of which
he stood pre-eminenrly the champion,
the trusted champion OF the people in
this State.
1t may be that he figured the illit-
eracy of the Reform movement to be
!, 10, 900 the voting strength Of the Con-
servatives to be 100000, aud the num-
bers of the Reformers at SIS, 900 less the
$4,000 illiterates who would be cut
Off-which would make the two sides
10000 and 100000. If that was the case
then that explains the idea OF an equal
division.
l claimed at that time by letter, and
subsequent events confirm med it, that IL
that contract was carried out it would
mean the political destruction, by die

The best advertised mineral water at
the Atlanta exposition is the Harris
Lithia Water of South Carolina. Mr.. j.
Il. Harris, the proprietor, is here giving
his personal attention to the exhibit,
and he never allows an opportunity
pass without informing the public of
the great superiority of the Harris
Lithia Water over all other waters. Mr..
Harris states that the Harris Lithia
Water contains about one-third more
lithia than any other natural lithia
water known. In the agricultural build
ing you will find the exhibit which is
one of the most attractive in the build
ing. This booth is handsomely drapcd
in bright colored buntings. In the cen
tire is u large pyramid of bottles, and
on top is another reaching almost to the
top of the building, on which is displayed
three thousand Navigation bottles of
| Harris Lithia water. Besides the eX-
hibit there will be found located on the
grounds five other attractive stands.

A Boys Room.
From Harper's Bazar.

from Harper Bazar. -
There are boys rooms where love
and good sense and artistic taste
have gone hand in hand, and achiev-
ell a result that has seemed to the
happy occupants the one thing to be
desired In the way of a room.
A fair-sized apartment, with a
smaller one opening out of it, is the
beau ideal of u boys particular re-
treat, and more like what he will
have in his college days. Here he
can work his own sweet will within
reasonable bounds, and invite "a
crony or two to enjoy his particular
section of the family roof, and it
was such an arrangement as this that
the youthful owner at first sight
pronounced fit for a king"
1t had been done slowly and with
much consideration, while the if
teen-year-old boy was still at school,
and it greeted him like a finished
picture at his Homecoming. There
a no lavish expenditure, yet the
arrangement called for a reasonable
amount of money, and this is often
Forthcoming in cases where no APP
proach to anything like success has
been achieved.
The rooms we're not so sunshiny
as could be desired, but they were
the only ones available for the pur-
pose, and the best was made Of them
in every way. When quite ready
for occupancy they really looked
sunshiny.
The sleeping-room was rather
small, and the door between was re-
moved, while, instead of a potiere, a
deep valance of coarse ecru linen,
embroidered in outline stitch with
peoples and daffodils, was hung
across the upper part of the opening,
This harmonizied with the wood
work, a light golden shade of brown.
and with all the other belongings
The walls were in golden-tinted
cream, with a frieze OF sealing-wa>
red, and this seemed to fill the
rooms with warmth and brightness
at once. Both were done alike, anc
the frieze was finished with gil
moulding on either side. Then tn,
floors were taken in hand, and care
fully stained to match the wood
work. A beautiful japanese rug
was then laid down in the centre O.
each room, and fastened with ring
to brass-headed nails in the floor
which made it an easy matter t
take them up and shake them whel
the room was swept, and yet KEEP
them in place for ordinary use.
The two rugs were exactly alike
differing only in size, the ground
work being of Il rich red with a cen
trail enclosure of cream-color, o.
which were figures in pink and blu
outlined with darker red and black
The bedroom had a read enamell
ed iron bedstead, a fac-simile i
color of the frieze and the bed-coy
erings were of creamy white, re
licved by a down comfortable G
Turkey-red across the foot. Th
chest of drawers and the dressing
table and chairs were enamellcd i
cream picked out with red, and tn
broad convenient wash-stand Shove
the same coloring.
There were Il few pictures in tn
room-a fine engraving of the ST
tine Madonna, a colored photograp
of the mother whose labor of love
had been to fit up the rooms for h,
boy, and another of the boy himse
at the age of long curls and tin
knickcrbockers.

SUGAR BOUN TIES.
REPEAL OF THE PROVISION WAS
IMMEDIATE.
There Remains No Duty the Respon-
dent Could Pcrform-No Estoppel
Runs Against the People.

Washington, Jan. S.-The district court
of appeals today affirmed the decision of
the district. supreme court refusing to
grant the Miles Sugar Manufacturing
and Planting company, of Louisiana, a
and Internal Revenue Commissioner MIL
Ter to proceed under the law, awarding
sugar bOuntieS notUiths landing dts re-
peal by the new tariff law. The case was
brought as test suit. Appeal to the
United States supreme court is yet open
to the plaintiffs, the case having gone
against them in all inferior tribunals.
Inc court, in an opinion by Judge
Shepherd, held that, the repeal of the
sugar bounty provisions of the Mckinley
act by the new tariff LAW. was immediate
and complete and contained no exception
or protection of any right held at the
time of. the passage of the law by virtue
OF the PROVISIONS of the Mckinley act.
Consequently there remains no duty that
the respondents Carlisle and Miller,
court then made the following general
remarks on the validity of the sugar
bounty provisions of the Mckinley, law:
The fact that monies have been paid
out under a doubtful or questionable val
ldlty cam have no great weight, under a
system where the question is so hard to
be raised in an effecsiveg an1lers- hut if
there had been a. practice by Congress,
uniform and generally acquieSced in, our
opinion is so clearly against the validi-
ty of this Cthe Mckinley acD, that we
could not be controlled by it in the per-
Torrance of our duty. No time, no ac-
quiescence, no estoppal runs against the
people under the protection of our legis-
lation.
From what has been said, it follows
that the judgment below Diminishing the
petition must be in all AhinEs affirmed,
and it is ordered.
