AnHsiress Etdnane6.

ST. LOUIS. March 17.-Eila Burden,
II years old, heiress to 500, 900, has
been inexplicabIy missing from her
home since Monday. Sne lived with
her grand mother, Mrs. Burden, at
5Q32 Minerva street and left home
Monday for the Dozier school, where
she is regarded as one OF the brightest
and preltiest of the several pupils. At
$50 o'clock in the afternoon, the usual
hour, she left the school for home and
went part of the way with several other
girls, to point where she usually
took the car for home. Nothing has
been heard of her since. Mr.. Burden
has every agency possibly at work for
ner discovery. He declares the only
possible theory for her disappearance
IS that she was kidnapped and IS being
held by her captors until a sufficient
reward is offered. Ella is beautiful
child and we'll grown for her age. A
large reward is offered for her return

Ha FallOnickly.

COLUMBIA, S. c.. March 1s.-When
Governor EIlerbe reorganized the
constabulary afew days ago he an
nounced that he would use his official
broadaxe to chop off the head of the
very first appointee who got drunk.
Under such circumstances he little
dreamed that he would have to use his
axe in less than week. But he did,
all the same. One of the members OF
the new force got On a spree after
getting his commission. It was
promptly reported to Governor Ellerbe
and yesterday he chopped the offend
er's official head Off without word.
Another man will be selected to fill
tke place. The man was one OF the
members of the former force who had
been retained. Governor Ellerbe says
that he expects to take similar action
in every case Of such character tha: is

Charcs For Soma Town.

COLUMBIA, S. c., March 1S-"At
the annual meeting of the South Car
olina State Teachers association a
committee OF three men was appointed
TO see what could be done toward
securing permanent home-grounds
and building-ior these annual meet,
ings, such homes as the teachers OF
North Carolina and Georgia have.
From 300 to 800 teachers from the
common schools, high school, acsde:
mics and colleges OF the State attend
these meetings. How many towns IN
the State are interested in this
movement? Thiscommittee makes
its report in June" The State
yesterday received the above
which is given for the information OF
the public. There is scarcely any
necessity Of pointing out the great
benefit IN many ways that will coma
to the town Or city which has the
number Of teachers indicated to ga:her
therein once a year All business
concerns would profit directly from
the presence Of such people.

more a prize to be fought for and
alas, must say Thought. The Re
publican chairman, who is 10 become
Senator, has been actively at work
securing votes in that body.
When Congress convenes in extra
session he will himself be a member OF
It, and his intimate relations with the
new President will naturally give
him more weight than any other man
in the Senate. Thus bribery, the
wholesale debaUchery Of the ballot,
is rewarded by the highest honor ard
influence. TIE highest honor in the
gift of the State IS the prize for the
wholesale p-ostitution CT the A1erl
can people.
Again say it marks an epoch IL
our country's history, and 1t remains
to be seen whether the triumph OF
wrong over right, Of falsehood over
truth, OF dishonesty and corruption
shall be permanent. repeat that tae
brazen etfrontery which has brought
about this object lesson is fortunate
for the cause OF humanity aud patriot
ism.
The mills of the gods grind SLOW,
but they grind exceedingly fine.
The people Of great wealth who use
such uuscrupulous methods to To-
crease their ill.gotten gains are only
damming up the water.

Pepper, defendant, respondent; at
frmed. Opinion By Ira B. Joaes, As
sociate Justice Behind this is the
sad story Of wonan's betrayal and
the perfdious attempt Of the man 10
the case to heap further igoony and
disgrace upon his con6dlng vic:lm.
Several years ago, in Anderson Coun-
ty, Pepper paid marked attentions TO
the defendant in the case mentioned.
Under the promise OF marriage he be-
trayed her, but her father and brother,
accompanied by q preac 1ec and a
couple OF guns, persuaded Pepper tha.
it was best to right the wrong he had
done, as far as possible, by marrying
the girl. Shortly after this Pepper
skipped of and went to Texas. Last
year he applied to Judge Witherspoon
at Anderson to annul the marriage on
the ground tha. he had been forced
into 1t and had not entered into the
contrac! of his own free will and con,
sent. The Judge righteously decided
against him and an appeal was taken
to the Supreme Court, which has just
confirmed the decision Of the lower
court. 1t is understood that Pepper
has some property in which he does not
wish his wife to share and that IS why
ne wants the marriage aunuiled, bat
in this the courts have blocked MIN.
He is still in Texas, md even should
he get divorce IN that State Il WILL

with citizen, who, though
wealthy furnished his table poorly,
When they were seated the host
said
"Times air mighty tight, parson,
an we amt got much to set before
you, but such as it is, you air well
come, viii you ask a blessing on
what you see2'
The parSon, observing the scant
repast, lifted up his voice and said;
Lord make us thankful for what
we see, and may we be able to find
it when we reach for it. Let it not
escape us and prove a snare and a
delusion. Amen, Thank you for
the greens. "-EX.
