The information that after January

will levy no taxes of any kind, but will
obtain from street railways, water and
lighting systems more than enough
revenue to pay the expenses of the city
government, is a startling reflection
upon our present methods of extrava-

The following tribute to Arthur
.Sewall's Americanism from the New
York Sun is refreshing indeed:
Whatever may be the results of the
approaching campaign, and whether or
not the wheels of fortune shall carry
the Bath shipbuilder into the chair of
the presidency, there will be no
harder worker, no more tireless toiler
for the SUCCESS of the Chicago ticket
than Arthur Sewall. He will give every
moment of his time to the cause from
now until November. He will accept
the result, either victory or defeat. with
out a murmur. If the former, he will go
to Washington determined to do his best
loyalty to carry out the wishes of the
people who send him there. If defeated
he will continue to send ships into the
waters of the kennebec One thing is
certain. If Democracy and Populism win
the present fight, there will be at least
an American in the presidential
chair"

THE AHerLus BELL.

The peaceful call OF the Angelus bell
Floats in the breeze, DER hill and vale
IT'S music cheers the toil-worn son OF
Who wends his weary way to his quiet
In him who on far distant shores has
sought
Forgetfulness of grief. 1t wakes the
thought
or friends and kindred who together
dwell.
On could he hear with them the Angelus
belll
No mortal tongue can half its powers
tell
For peace, good will, resounds the mighty
bell!
The bursher. rich clothed In his pomp
and might,
Bows head and heart with every lowly
And though in dreams hear the angels
sing,
That peace ana Joy twas their blest boon
to bring
To Mary: So, the loved Angelus bell
Repeats the tidings over hill and dell
o Mary, Mother of the Son Of God.
TIL the lone, lone path to heaven I've
trod.
Help me to hear the far Angeius bell
Resounding clearly over hill and dell.
For every strain tells me Of thee ana
And hope and faith its music intertwlne !;
And death will loose somehow its fearful
knell.
II I can hear beyond the Angeus bell.

"One of the most remarkable new
departures in the freight business"
said Mr.. Omar H. Bartlett, general
agent of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad, lis the idea OF icing vege-
tables for shipping long distances. 1t
has been tried spasmodically in other
years, but never until this year was
the plan carried out to any extent.
Now the New Orleans shippers are ic-
ing their vegetables right along. We
have already this season hauled twen-
ty-five cars to New York city alone
that contained iced vegetables, and the
shipments to Boston, Buffalo, Pitts
burg, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and in
fact all the Northern cities, have fol-
lowed out this new idea. You know
the shipments of cucumbers, cabbages,
beans and all kinds Of garden stuff
have grown very rapidly in the past
few years, and now the producers have
found 1t necessary TO ice them. The
process Of packing is quite interest

A Reminder of Pioneer Day.

Workmen on the large timber tract
of CLARK, Kizer & Kipp cut large
oak tree the other day. 1t was over
two feet IN diameter and perhaps a
hundred feet high. Almost on the
topmost bough was a steel trap of the
size used for foxes and wild cats. A
chain attached to it was wound
around large limb, and was almost
buried in the wood, which had grown
over it. This trap had evidently been
set by one of our pioneer hunters and
dragged to the top Of this tree by a
wild cat or some other animal that
has been caught in it a hundred years
ago.-Punesutauwey Spirit.

FACTS ABOUT HIGHWAYS.
Judicial Expression That Will Correct
Many Mistaken Notions.

One of the mistaken notions Of a
majority of persons is that certain
things belong to the public, such as
the fruit OF trees by the roadside and
berries on bushes not closed by fences.
There is also but a vague idea of
what the rights Of the public are as
to the occupancy of streets or roads.
In a case before the Butler Court
Judge Greer's charge to the Jury con-
tains some information which makes
interesting reading.
The case before his Honor was the
obstruction Of public roads and streets.
The Defendant was indicted for
maintaining nuisance by the obstruc-
ton of public road, part of which
he used for the purpose of hewing
timbers. Council for the defense
argued that SO long as there was room
left for a team to pass, the use of
PORTION Of the highway by an unauthor-
lied person for his own private pur-
pose, did not amount to a nuisance.
The Court ruled otherwise. His
Honor in his charge to the Jury, said
the public have the right to free and
unobstructed passage over the road,
and if impeded the township is liable
for any damage that may result. For
all other purposes the land to the
middle of the road belongs to the
owners Of abutting property on each
side. No other person can lawfully
use this for his own purposes or ap.
propriate to his own use any grass,
fruit or other crop that grows thereon.
But in case of accident, as the break
ing Of wagon, man may pile his
load by the wayside and leave it there
for reasonable time, until he can
remove it. incidentally, his Honor
referred to the use and obstruction of
streets in town, by fakirs, venders of
medicines or other goods. The
rights Of the property owners, he said
are the same in towns as in the
country. The public have right to
| Tree passage, but the title Of the
owner Of abutting property extends
to the middle of the road. A license
from the Burgess or Town Council
to occupy this property for business
purposes, is Of no legal effect and any
person so occupying it may be arrest.
ed and indicted for trespass or nui-
sance. His license will afford him nc
protection against prosecution and
punishment for such unlawful act
A property owner has not only the
right Of possession in his land, bu,
of the public to his premisee. Corner
lots are the most valuable for business
purposes, because they give the pub
lie better access, and the owner of
such lots owns a larger extent Of
street line, to the full benefit of which
he is entitled, and of which he may
not lawfully be dispossessed by in
truders.

she took passage on the Jersey Belle.
Just before the sinking of the barge, the
boiler which runs the pumps blew up with
terrific force, scattering coal and splinters
in every direction. The barge sank in
about twelve fathoms of wafer and her
masts are sticking out of the water.
Through the good work OF Capt. Wiley, OF

SITTING EVANS CHARGES.
Extra Session of the Dispersnry Board
on Tuesday Next.


Columbia, S. c., Sept. 10.-If what has
been whispered about in the last few days.
since the revelations made by Gov Evans,
as to what certain people kne " about the
affairs of the State dispeDsary be true,
then the outside world may look for
spicy reading next week, bearing upon the
big State scandal. The State board OF
control has been called in extra session to
fully investigate the scandal and see what
is behind il.
Col. Willie Jones, chairman of the State
board of control OF the State dispensary,
today Notified the other four members OF
the board that there would be an extra SEES
sion on Tuesday night next.
He was seen and asked why lie had called
the extra meeting He replied that in
view OF the recent charges made by Gov.
Evans against Liquor Commissioner Mix
son, he did not See how the State board
could do otherwise than investigate the
matter.
There were charges and couDter-charges
by Gov. Evans and Commissioner MiXson
and these naturally reflected on the man
agement of the dspensary. In fact, if
charges like those OF Gov. Evans had been
made by any reputable citizen, 1t would
rest OH the board TO sift the matter. This
investigation was due TO the board itself
and due to the people of the State and due
also Commissioner MiSeon.
In answer to the question Of what the
probable action of the board would be,
Col. Jones replied that lie did not know.
AS chairman OF the State board he felt
that 1t rested on him to assemble the board
and let it take whatever action 1t saw
proper. In his letter OF notification to
the board lie made no mention of his rea-
sons for calling the meeting, but simply
stated that certain business demanded
their immediate attention.

HIS LAST CONCERT.
"wednesday of last week he came to
the concert, evidently under the influence
of liquor. He made various serious mis-
takes, but took no notice OF them, except
what any leader would do, to correct the
mistakes with his baton. i never spoke
word to him.
''This was the last seen Of him. did no

Eighty Thousand Men Engage in the
German Maneuvers.

Berlin, Sept. 10--The military naneuvers
were resumed at Goerlitztoiay. both armies
beginning to move at O'Clock in the morn
ing. The right wing OF the Prussians
pressed the Eighth Saxon division back upon
Schaffberg, whereupon the Thirty-seCo I'd
Saxon division came to the aid of the
Eighth division and stayed the advance of
the Prussians.
In the meantime the right wing of the
Saxon troops drove wedge into the
Prussian Sixth army corps while the ex-
IRENE right OF the SaXons outflanked the
Sixth Corps OF Prussians, getting the
latter under a cross-fire at kupschuetZ.
At this juncture the emperor called a
halt and the sixth Prussian army corps
then reformed on the Waditz hills and the
operations were re-opened.
At11 O'Clock in the forenoon the Prussian
sixth Corps had driven back the Saxons'
left wing on the bases OF Jenkwitz and

GERMAN STILL A SENATOR.
Mr.. Wagner Has Resigned the POpu-
lar Pitcher.

Mr.. Earl Wagner announced a popular
piece of news yesterday when lie stated
that lie hal resigned Lester German to
whom lie gave ten days notice of release
several days ago.
Germans contract includes his engage
ment with the Senators for the season Of
1897.
notwithstanding the i'll success that has
followed Germans work since he became
q member of the local team it was evident
that lie was the victim Of unexplainable
hard luck insteai of being Incompetent,
and the fans have steadily adhered to him
despite the reverses that fell to his lot.
The announcement Of Germans release
was heard with genuine regret, and now
that Mr. Wagner has reConsidered the mat
ter and rc-engaged him, the action will be
generally applauded.
Many of the games in which Lester
pitched this season were lost by one run,
and others slipped away from him through
errors OF those in the field. Certainly
bad luck cannot follow him always, and
who can gainsay that relieved of his hoodoo,
he will not repeat the winning form he
showed with New York the first two
seasons fol- owing his connection with
that club.
