from H. S. Halbert, Of Crawford,
Miss, who was an army comraue Of
Calvin Crozier, the Texas soldier who
was put to death by order of Colonel
Trowbridge at Newberry, S. c., for re"
senting an insult given a lady by a
negro soldier. I wrote Of this in q.
former letter and of the monument the
good people of Newberry had erected,
to his memory. The negro was but
slightly wounded and in the confusion
in the car another man was arrested
for the deed. When Crozier learned
this he gave himself up and was shot
at sunrise. Mr.. Halbart had never
heard of Crozier's fate until he read
it in the Consultation and he now begs
for more information concerning him
and his sad fate. Will some one who
knows please write to him. He says
that Crozier was a noble man and a
gallant soldier and Belonged to Goodies
battery organized at Dallas, Tex.
Sam Davis and Calvin Crozier were
but two. We had many more just like
them, but they were not so tried.
But speaking of tears and wal the
most touching lines ever written were
by Langhorne, who died more than
one hundred years ago:
"Cold on Canadian hills or Minden's
That weeping mother mourned her hus-
band slain ).
Bent DER her babe, her eye dissolved in
dew
The big drops mingling with the milk ho
drew.
What a sad presage of his future years
The child Of misery baptized in tears"
What could be more sweetly, sadly
pitiful. No wonder that Burns shed
tears when he looked at the print that
had been made of the scene. Why
has not some great artist taken the
hint and painted it to the life-the
mother seeking her dead husband
among the slain on a battlefield and
weeping over her child as he nursed
from her breast-"the big drops ming
ling with the milk he drew It is
enough to make an angel weep. 1t is
enough to emphasize General Sher-
mans p%itiless remark that
"War is hell"
The poet Rogers said the prcttiest
thing about a tear. He wanted to
find a chemist who could crystalline
one so that he could wear it as a gem
next to his heart for a talisman.
Shakespeare calls the tears Of an old
man Honorable dew that silvers down
thy cheeks" and another poet de-
scribes man as "a pendulum betwixt
a smile and a tear" So we will let
these old soldiers weep if they wish
to. 1t will do them good for they are
not tears of sorrow nor grief. They
are the yelling up and overflow of
sacred memories. 1t is like unto a
man after years and years Of wander
ing eoing back to the home Of his
youth and greeting his kindred and
schoolmates and communipg together
about the joys and sorrows of the
olden time. These veterans all shared
a common peril and it is but natural
that they should love to get together
and talk of it. So let them meet and
talk and weep if they feel like it, and
curses be upon the heartless set who
scof at it and say oh, let the old war
go-wc are tired of it. BILL ARP.

A Simple Disinfcctant.

1t is a fact not generally taken into
account, because but imperfectly I'M
dcrstood, that pure, fresh, cold water
is one of the most valuable d~islnfec.
tants, inasmuch as it is a powerful alb
sorbent. Every sick-room should have
a large vessel of clear water, frequently
renewed placed near the bed. This not
only alb .orbs much Of the hurtful va
por, but by it's evaporation, it softens
and tcmpcrs the atmosphere, doing
away with the dryness which is so
trying and depressing to an invalid, or
even to persons in health, for that
matter. It has frequently been shown
by actual experiment that troubled
sleep and threatened insomnia are cor.
rectcd by SO simple a thing-as the
placing Of an open bowl of water near
the sufferers bed. On the same prin-
ciplc, water which has been standing
in an open vessel in a sleeping-room
or a sick-room, should under no con.
dition be used for drinking; nor
should any liquid intended as a bev-
erage be allowed thus to stand open
to contamination NorthwcStern

Wonderful Helen Keller.

The marvel of the modern world,
Helen Keller, the blind girl of Ala
bama, whose wonderful progressin her
studies for admission to Radcliffe col
lege have attracted the attention and
aroused the admiration of the wise
men of the world, has just celebrated
her 18th birthday by beginning her
preliminary examination. She was II
years old last Sunday and she stood
her first examination yesterday.
Miss Keller has been studying in a
preparatory school at Cambridge since
last fall. Her instruction in Latin,
German, French, history and geogra-
ply has not been specially difficult
since the great improvement in books
for the blind. Her text books look
like the big office books in use in
counting rooms. The raised letters
she can read as rapidly as if she could
see, and the Brayl system, where a CT
pher consisting of dots and dashes
takes the place of letters can be read
even more rapidly because the matter
is more condensed.
Books hal have never been trans
lated for the blind, Miss Keller still
reads-not by sight, as do the deaf
mutes, nor by listening to others, as
do the blind who can hear. She sim
ply places her hand over the fingers of
the one who is reading, by using the
sign language of the deaf, and catches
every word. In this way she has COW
cred the whole range Of her preparato-
ry studies. For her arithmetic a spe-
cial slate was invented, and she has
become an accurate and ready worker
in mathematics.
Miss Keller has been provided with
a planctarium, upon which she can
feel the positions of the heavenly
bodies and has gained a clear idea Of
their relations to each other.
The whole world will watch the
progress of this wonderful girls ex-
animation for entrance to Radcliffe
college, on which the hope of her life
is staked. In studying these exami-
nations, the papers arc read to her
and she writes the answers on a type
writer. Her intelligence is prefer
naturally keen, her enthusiasm in
domitablc and her ambition boundless
Many thousands hal do not know her
will pray that she may succccd.-At-

Irby on McLaurin.

Ex-senator j. L. NJ. Irby, of Lau-
rens, was in Columbia yesterday to
show his young son the city and on
other business, he stated. But what
the other business was he did not care
to say. After c%autioning reporters to
avoid asking leading questions, he
proceeded to discuss the new tariff
doctrines and tenets of Senator Nc
Laurin and Tillman. They were like,
said the former Senator, who since his
retirement to farm life, uses only
rural comparisons, a man walking up
on another just after he had stolen
and butchered a cow belonging to a
neighbor, and instead of telling on the
guilty party saying to him, "If you
don't give me a quarter of the beef
I'll tell" But the people Of this
State, he said, do not approve Of their
departure from Democratic doctrines.
There were seven out Of every ten
people in South Carolina who were
Democrats and not over three out OF
seven favored such principles as advo-
Gated by McLaurin. Mr.. Irby then
said he was a Democrat and always
had been, but could never accept any
other doctrine than tariff for reve-
nue. only" He thought had it been
noticed during the last presidential
campaign that the word "only' had
been omitted from the tariff plank of
tariff for revenue" that the election
would have been more disastrous to
the Democratic party.
Mr.. Irby positively refused either
to affirm or deny that he was going to
participate in any way in the Senate
rial primary. He would not even say
whether or not he would be present at
the opening meeting in Sumter.
Before leaving the subject of Mr.:
McLaurin, the ex-senator said he did
not know what effect the new position
of Mr.. McLaurin on the ~dispensary, as
shown by his trying to secure the pas
sage of Latimer's %dispensary bill,
would have in the primary. He at
tached much Importance to it, how
ever.
The following from the State of
June %, was handed the ex-senator,
but he declined to answer the ques-
tions contained in it:
Gas we said, at the time we pub.
lished 'Up-Country's lett we did
not undertake to affirm that there vas
a deal between Evans and Irby where
by the latter was to run for Governor
next year. But we do now affirm that
there arc signs pointing to an alliance
between them for some purpose, and
that there is occasion for Mr.. Irby to
be more specific in his denial. We
hope he will answc' ese questions !:
Has he had a rapportment with
Evans? Has he had anything to do
with suggesting or melting the out
burst of two Laurcns papers against
Ellerbc and McLaurin? Has he been
in consultation with politicians as to
a plan of campaign against them =? Is
he in favor of drawing anew the aban-
doned fractional lines in this State :?
We ask for information, wishing to
fix in our own mind and in the minds
of our readers the status Of the cx-
Senator"
Mr.. Irby intimatcd that the ques-
tons might be answered at some flu
turc day, presumably by action and
not by words. - olumJta State, Junc

POSSIBLE CRIME IN BRIDGEPORT.
James Burns Found Death Near His Home

of Murder.
Bridgeport, March 25,-James Burns,
a Greenfield farmer, was found dead at
8 o'clock this morning on the roadside,
about 100 rods from his home. He
drove to this city yesterday TO pur-
chase some goods, and after securing
what he wanted, set out for home.
That's all anybody seems to know about
the matter. In his barnyard this morn
ing his horse was found attached to the
wagon, waiting patiently to be unhar-
messed and taken care of.
There is an ugly wound on the head
of the dead man and some advance the
theory that he was thrown from his
wagon, struck upon his head and was
killed. His horse, being familiar with
the route, continued on the the barn
