She Knew Country Things.

I'eIfSOh
A girl from town is staying with some
country cousins who live at farm. On
the night of her arrival she finds, to her
modification, that she is ignorant of all
sorts of things connected with farm life
which to her country cousins are matters
of everyday knowledge. She fancies they
seem amused at her ignorance.
At breakfast the following morning she
sees on the table a dish of fine honey. where
upon she thinks she has found an oppor-
tunity of retrieving her humiiaating expert
ence of the night before. and of showing
her country cousins that she knows some
thing of life, after all. So looking at the
dish OF honey, she says. carelessly:
'Ah. / see you keep a bee.

In framing their extradition treaties with
us Russia and Belgium were allowed by us
TO insert a clause to the effect that the
killing or attempted killing of the head of
the state or one of his family should not be
regarded as political crime. The first
provision Of the sort was inserted in
treaty between Belgium and France, in
1896. An unsuccessful attempt had been
made. with an internal machine, to blow
up train in which the then Emperor of
France was travelling. Two Frenchmen,
suspected of the attempt escaped into Bel
GUM. and hence the subsequent agreement
between the two countries. After the as

resolved to form an extradition league for
the protection of European royalty against
king raurderers. but the project was never
realized.

WARREN, May 29.-Dry weather and
cool nights have somewhat retarded the
coming up of our crops; but since the re-
freshing showers of the past few days, the
outlook is more encouraging. Hoe hands
have been in great demand throughout
this section during the past ten days.
Chinch bugs are still at work on the
small grain in this section, and what little
wheat and oats we have, barely promises
to be worth harvesting.
We will have a series of meetings at
Antioch M. E. church, beginning on the
fifth Sunday, conducted by our pastor,
Rev. J. B. Harris, assisted by Rev. r. A.
Yongue, of East Chester.
A great many people from this place
are attending the Jones meeting at Rock
Hill. All report good preaching and ex-
cellenc music.

Mr.. J. A. Garrison was taken seriously
ill while attending the meeting in Rock
Hill several days ago, and, up to this
writing, his condition has not been such
as to warrant his removal home.
With the exception of the above case
and few cases of dysintery, the health
of the community is now very good.

BLAcKsBURa, June 1.-The Rev. Mr..
Robinson, of Gaffney City, held three
days meeting here in the Presbyterian
church-Friday, Saturday and Sunday
last. Large congregations attended the
services, and on Sunday the holy CON-
municn was celebrated.
AS the people were going to their homes
Friday night, between the hours of 8 and
10 o'clock, they were startled by the cry
of fire, and it was soon discovered that
the dwelling at the corner of Lime and
Shelby streets, belonging to the estate OF
NJ. R. Reese and formerly occupied by
him, was burning. Conductor John Box
tell, OF the O.. R. & G. road, has been
living in the house for several months,
and he and his family having retired very
early, were sound asleep and unconscious
of their danger. They were quickly
aroused, however, by their neighbors.
Very soon large number of our citizens
had gathered, and by prompt and we'll
directed efforts the flames were soon
under control. The fire started in the
from defective flue this
time; but in a wood box, setting near
the stove, which, from some cause. caught
fire and burned through the floor to the
sill and thence up the lathed partition
into the next room, where bed was
standing, which also caught fire, but was
soon thrown out into the yard and the
fire extinguished. The house escaped
without much damage, thanks to the
hour Of the night and the heroic efforts Of
certain of our citizens; but the furniture
did not fare so well. The fire, and its
hasty removal into the street, damaged it
to a considerable extent; but we are all
thankful that the loss was so light.
Yesterday, about 2 o'clock, the sensa-
ton of an earthquake shock was felt here,
and although it was not so decided and
severe as the one in 1886, yet it was quite
perceptible and shook the houses and
windows, and alarmed some of our people.
Invitations are out for the marriage of
Miss Estella Ratterree to Mr.. w. Boyce
Ware, on tomorrow "Wednesday, End
June) at the residence of Mr.. Albert
Whisonant.
The Rev. Mr.. Cauthen and Mr.. Sam

control legislation in its interest, no
matter which party is in power, and
the boldness with which its president
proclaims to monopolize the market
and fix the price of sugar, and the
GOODNESS with which he announces the
enormous profits which have accrued,
make the average citizen wonder how
much longer the American people will
standi it. Chapman goes to Jail, though
he orders his meals from the Airing
ton, and his cell is furnished most
luxuriantly; but Havemeyer, the su-
gar trust magnate, goes scot free under
practically a similar charge. The
Journal and other metropolitan papers
deserve great credit for having focused
public attention on the sinister infiu-
ences surrounding the senate at this
time. Let them continue the war on
trusts and trust influences and the
time will soon come when the people
will send congress here that will give
them relief from these infamous com
binations of capital that are debauch-
ing all branches of the government.

Looks Like the State May Decide to Shut
Up Shop.

Looks Like the State May Decide to Shut
Up Shop.
A dispatch of Monday from Colum-
bia, describes the position of Governor
Ellerbe on the dispensary question as
follows:
Governor Ellerbe said several days
ago that if Judge Simonton decided
against the state in this case, he saw
no alternative but to close down the
dispensary. Today, however, he would
not make a definite statement, saying
he must consult with the attorney gen
eral, who will not reach the city until
tomorrow morning.
The governor said he was astonished
at the decision; but was prepared for
it's sweeping scope. 1t is clear that
the dispensary cannot be operated
at a profit under existing condi-
tions, and the state authorities do
not hope for a reversal of Judge
Simonton should they appeal. From
talking with the members of the board
of control, but two moves seem proba-
BILE. Either the dispensary will be clos
ed down or an extra session of the legis-
lature will be called to take what action
seems advisable on prohibition or high
license, as allowed in the new consti-
tuition. 1t is claimed that should the
dispensary be closed by the governor,
prohibition would result, because this
decision annuls all of the law except
the first section, which prohibits the
sale or manufacture of liquor in this
state. The state has in the several
dispensaries about S35O,O00 worth Of
liquor, which it will find difficult to
dispose of.
