Replying TO the State in reference
the Clemson matter, the Dispatch
would say that the Investigating
committee has fully sustained the
charges published in that paper and
exonorated it from the charge OF
misrepresentation. We were salts
fed at the time the charges were
made that there was some foundation
for them or Mr.. AIcMaster, the cores
pondent, would not have MADE them.
Mr.. McaIaster certainly acted nobiy
and manly in suffering persecution
and the taunts OF being a falsifer
rather than betray confidence placed
in him by divulgiDg the name of his
informant; and the report Of the
committee is a striking illustra-
ton of the truthfulness of the ak
iom tha', "truth crushed to the eal tn
shall rise again" His vindication is
full and complete.

News from Star Academy.

Mr.. S. S. LindIers family is just
recovering from the measles, all but
his youngest child. It is very sick
with them but we hope it will be
we'll in few days. Mr.. l.. A. Sease
has been teaching in his place for a
few days at the Star Academy on the
account Of his child being too sick
for him to leave home. The schoi-
ars like Mr.. Sease quite we'll. Re is
an excellent teacher.
Last Saturday night an accident
happened to Mr.. Krell and his two
brothers on their return from party.
AS they were crossing the river the
fiat got away from them, and jerked
Mr.. Krell out into the river, and the
fiat and the other two boys went sail
ing down the river and lodged on the
widow Drehel'o . island. Then they
made the alarm and friends heard
their cries and gathered in and got
the boys out and brought the fiat
back to its place. I suppose the
boys had great fun at the party but
not much at the river.
A mad aog made its appearance in
the neisbborhood Wednesday eve

damage to the community, though
we are glad to say that it did not in

Among the big humbugs at law
m king Ct the day is that Of dividing
the State into school districts. In
our round through the county we
learned that there was not one man
in ten who knew what school district
he resided in, and there is much dis
satisfaction expressed at the present
system, yet the law is imperative,
that in making returns the tax pay
ers must state in what district he
resides. The better plan would be
to allow the people to locate their
own school houses and elect their
own teachers.

HoUsF,

There were some eloquent speeches
in connection with tie bill to make
Gen. Robert E. Lees birthday, Jan.
18th, one of the legal holidays Of the
State, and by the unusual method Of
a rising vote the amendment to
make it legal holiday was agreed
upon.
The members Of the House seem
to realize the abuse of carrying con-
cealed weapons and showed de-
cided disposition to pass some law
that will put stop to the practice.
The point was that the present law
ought either to be repealed or en-
forced and the majority of the mem
bers favored the rigid enforcement of
the law.
The propositions as to the exter-
mination OF hog cholera was killed.
Bill as to the removal Of property
By tenants as passed reads:
Section l. That from and after
the passage Of this Act any tenant or
employee who shall remove Or des,
troy any property Of his OF her land
lord without the consent Of the land
lord shall be deemed guilty Of a
misdemeanor, and upon conviction
shall be sentenced to pay q fine of
not more than fifty dollars or be i'm
pYisoned not more than thirty days.
Quite number of new bills were
introduced during the day. One in
which there is general interest is
that providing for the organization
of ten judicial circuits, or in other
words, to provide for two new judges,
with the following arrangement for
the circuits:
1. Charleston, Georgetown and
Berkeley.
2. Aiken, Orangeburg, Clarendon
and Williamsburg.
3. Sumter, Florence, Richland and
Fairfield.
4. Chesterfield, Horny, Darlington,

left to the most stubborn-minded per-
son. This joyous transformation from
sickness to health is going on in thou
sands of homes across the wide extent
of this country.
The reputatio Of Paine's celery COM
pound has grown by word OF mouth.
from persons made well, to others VINO
needed its healing, strengthening power.
The agreement of opinion among the
best-informed, most observant class OF
people, in the well-to-do-hOmes Of our
largest cities, as well as IN the more
frugal town communities places Paine's
celery compound far ia advance Of any
remedy. Paines celery compound is.
in fact, the only spring remedy ever
heard of in the home Of practicing ply
sicians.
This great remedy is not an ordinary
spring sarsaparilla, bitters, tonic or ner-
vine. Paine's celery compound is as
far apart from any of these guesswork
remedies as black is from white in the
eyes Of physicians who regularly pre-
scribe it, use it themselves and carry it
home to their own families. Paine's
celery compound is the famous formula
of that thoughtful and studious physi-
clan, Prof. Edward L. Phelps, NJ. D..
LII. D., Of the Dartmouth medical
school.
1t is the duty OF every man or woman
who has been benefited by Paine's cele-
~ compound to impress on friends and
neighbors it's wonderful efficacy as a
spring remedy that is in every way
worthy of the name.
The past of Paine's celery compound.
a every one who keeps informed OF
current events is well aware, is a re-
markable story OF sick people made
well, and of many persons, who had
given up health as wholly lost, made
strong as ever they were in their lives.
Paine's celery compound is the spring
remedy par excellence. No invigorator
has been so much praised, discussed,
recommended and used by physicians.
and discerning, conservative men and
women in every walk of life.
The story Of Paine's celery compound
in a nutshell is that II makes people well.

HOW TO CLEAN A BICYCLE
Wichita Rider Tells How it Can be Done
safely and Quickly.

This month, on account of the rains
has been a tough one on Wichita bicy-
cles. Bert White, the Eagles electrician
who is also a biker, gives the following
advice on cleaning a wheel He says:
1t is rather difficulty to give definite
advice for taking apart and cleaning a
bicycle, as there are more than LOO dill
ferent makes of wheels in this country,
and hardly any two Of them are alike as
to small details. but 1t is believed that
the following directions viii apply TO
nearly all of them
First wipe off all dust from the out
side
To remove the front wheel. take off
the nuts and washers outside the forks
on each end the axle. Spring back the
fork sides and the wheel viii drop out
of the fork ends. Then unscrew one of
the adjusting cones which are on the
axle on either side of the wheel A box
should be in readiness TO catch the balls
which will drop out when the cone is
removed. Then withdraw the axle
from the wheel, at the same time
catching in the box the halls
from the side on which the cone
has not been removed. These balls
should be counted and care taken in re-
placing them that each side has an
equal number which is usually about
eight. The cones and ball cups should
be wiped off With rag saturated with
kerosene oil. To replace the balls turn
the wheel on its side, insert the end of
the axle in the hub with the cone screw
ed on its upper end. drop in the requir-
ed number Of balls and let the axle drop
down until the cone Is in its place rest
ing on the balls. Hold the shaft in
place and reverse the wheel Put the
same number Of balls on the other side
and then screw on the cone On one
end of the axle there is generally a
shoulder which allows the core on that
side to be screwed up against il. Care
should be taken that the cone on this
side is tight against this shoulder Re
place the wheel in the forks and screw
up the adjustable cone until il is tight.
then unserew it about a quarter Of a
turn and replace the burrs on the out
side OF the fork sides, and see that the
wheel revolves freely without side play.
To remove the rear wheel. take Oft the
chain by taking out the little bolt which
holds the ends together. Then uuscrew
the nuts on the axle outside the rear
forks (the step is the head OF one os
these nuts) and pull the wheel out back
wards from the rear fork ends Re
move the bearings as was done on the
front wheel, the adjustable cone being
on the side opposite the small sprocket
wheel. There are generally H.ne balls

Mrs. II. B. Sperry, who is now the
eminent president of the Woman's Ma
tionaI Press association, was assistant
editor of the Washington World. Her
vigorous editorials in Ohio and Wash
ington newspapers first brought her into
national prominence.
The active profession of journalism
has kept Mrs. Sperry up to date in in
formation and progressive in thought.
When there was evident need of a
remedy in her family, she was well
aware that Paine's celery compound
was best to use. The following en-
thusiastic letter shows the happy re-
suits from the use of this greatest Of
remedies:
Wells & Richardson Co., Burlington, VT
Dear Sirs:-A few weeks use of
Paine's celery compound by my So
year-old mother has been of great bene-
fit to her and proved to my satisfac-
ton that there's nothing like it for the
headaches and slee9lessness incident to
impaired digestion. A niece in my
family was also cured of insomnia by
using one bottle of Paine's celery COM
pound.
Yours very truly.
Hannah B. Sperry.
In every part OF this country women
are utilizing these blessed spring days
by taking Paine's celery compound and
insisting on its use by the members of
their families. 1t speaks volumes for
this wonderful remedy that of all the
women who have recovered health by
it's means very many were induced to
take it through the persuasion of other
women,-sisters, mothers, friends or
relatives.
Many a man slowly failing In health.
but stubbornly shutting his eyes to the
alarming fact, has been led TO take
Paine's celery compound from seeing its
remarkable health-giving effect in the
case of his own wife, sister or some
other member Of his household.
When a sick and feeble sufferer is
seen to gain steadily in health and
vigor from taking Paine's celery com
pound, not much room for doubt is
