You have little prisoner.
He's nimble. sharp and clever.
He's sure to get away from you.
Unless you watch him ever.
And when he once gets out he makes
More trouble in an hour,
Than you can stop In many day,
Working with all your power.
He sets your playmates by the ears.
He says what isn't so,
And uses many ugly words
Not good for you know.
Quick, fasten tight the ivory gates.
And chain him while he's young!
For this same dangerous prisoner
Is just-your little tongue!

KEY WEST, Fla, Dec. 16.-The
cruisers Newark and Raleigh returned
to Key West at noon today and imme-
diately reported to the navy depart.
ment that they had been unable to
overhaul the filibuster steamer Three
Friends. 1t is reported here on good
authority that the latter landed her
cargo on the southeast side of the is.
land last night, after a running fight
with two Spanish gun boats. Guards
from Gomez's army received the war
supplies safely. As was reported in
these dispatches yesterday, the Three
Friends sailed from Jacksonville Sum-
day mig ht with a large cargo of arms
and ammunition. When the news
was received on board the Newark
she was seen to hurriedly steam up
and sail out of the harbor. She did
not even wait to take on full supply
of coal. It was to cut off the filibus'
ter steamer that the cruiser left so
hurriedly, and an exciting chase is
said to have taken place. The Three
Friends is a fleet little craft and had
no difficulty in showing her hells to
Uncle Sans cruisers and to the Span
ish vessels, which are also reported to
have taken part in the chase. When
questioned about the firing heard off
Key West yesterday, the officers re-
fused to talk, and will not say wheth-
er the Spanish vessels opened fire up
on the boat. That she succeeded in
landing her cargo is not doubted here.

A Conyenient Invention.

An Orangeburg farmer comes to the
front with a new invention in the
shape of a Lubricator for oiling We
hicle wheels without taking them off
the axle. 1t is inserted in the hub
between two of the spokes. When
you want to grease your wheel all you
have to do is to Withdraw a plunger,
which operates with spring, and put
as much oil as is needed on the axle.
Upon being released the spring closes
up the oil hole until it is opened for
oiling up again. 1t is very ingeni-
Gus and clever device. and is bound to
be used generally. With these lubri-
Gators vehicle can be oiled up any
where along the road in less than one
minute. The patent for this valuable
invention is owned by the National
Lubricator Company of Orangeburg,
s. Q. Mr.. Jas. L. Sims, Editor and
Proprietor of the Orangeburg Times
and Democrat, is the manager of the
company, which is guarantee that it
is all right. The company wants an
agent in this county to sell the Lubri-
Gators. See advertisement in another
