THE FAULT NOT OURS.

The account ot a Greenwood
marriage published in this paper
last week as clip ping from the
Greenwood Journal was the only
available report we had Of an affair
which we thought would be of
interest to many of our readers,
as the groom was a native of this
county and has spent most of his
life here. While We noticed at the
time that the Journals description
was rather vague, we had no
right to change the wording Of the
article, so had to be content TO let
the head lines supply the omis
sion. As to the criticism of our
steemed contemporary, the
Greenville News. we cheerfnllv
relinquish all claims to any por
,tion Of 1t, generously giving way
to the Journal, to whom it legiti
mately belongs.

a creature of his creation, trimmed

throughout the entire Piedmont
section and disseminating tru,h

To aid and abet the Headlight

Headlight, and illuminating the

Both these journalistic lights are
TO be under the management OF

immense. To the Evening Star

LONG RIDE WITH DOGS
The Novel Team Used by 4 Mime
sofa Family.
They Have Travelled All the Way
from Their Northern State to
California with Their Faith
fal CANNES.

Mr.. and Mrs. Blandy are Minnesota
couple who have just made most re-
markable journey. Leaving their home
at Brainerd, Minn., one year ago, with
their baby boy, four years old. they
have travelled by dog team clear to
California, and are now in camp at
Sweethriar, in that far-off state.
The Blandys wanted to make trip
70 the Pacific coast. They wanted tC
90 leisurely SO as to see the country.
Economy was an object, as was also an
opportunity to earn something en-
route. So Mr.. Blandy and his wife de-
eided to travel by dog team.
'Dogs are used in the arctic regions" !"
argued Mr.. Blandy; why not in the
temperate zone?'
Their outfit consists of small spring
wagon with one seat, and covered with
canvas, the whole weighing 21O pounds
with the baggage of the travellers. Mrs.
Blandy and her baby occupy the seat,
while Mr.. Blandy sit in front on roll
Of blankets and tent, from which
perch he drives his dogs. These are
six in number, huge cross-bred St. Ber-
1lard and Newfoundlands. powerful of
muscle and kind of disposition. In the
rear of the wagon is rack of shelves,
containing dishes and provisions, while
pots, kettles and an oil stove are hung
from hooks above the rack. The back
end Of the wagon is made to let down
and, supported by sticks, serves as a
dining table.
When seen by reporter in the camp
at Sweetbriar Mr.. Blandy had tin can
and paint brush in hand and was go
ing the rounds" among his dogs. paint
ing their feet with tannate of glycerin
20 prevent sensitiveness When travel
ing over rough roads he makes applica-
tions of this preparation every evening,
to insure his animals against suffering,
and the faithful creatures seem 10 like
the operation, for they look at their
master with gratitude and affection.
"Those dogs are far ahead of any
horses, Mrs. Blandy said, emphatically.
when some one suggested that Shetland
ponies would be preferable. why,
dogs will carry you through snow to
safe, warm place. and horses would give
out on you. And didn't we travel 21O
miles on the railroad? Horses couldn't
walk ties and carry you over long
frestles mile and three-quarters in
length as our dogs did. wouldn't take
Sc horses for one OF our dogs. Would 1,
Bruce?" and she patted great, shaggy,
yellow dog on the head.
They travelled at speed that was
convenient to the character of the coun-
try they crossetl-never travelling less
than ten miles day, reaching daily
maximum Of SO miles lat one time COW

Bismarck's FavOrite SPOT.

One strange result of Bismarck's
death has been the stimulus that it has
given to lottery speculation in Vienna.
Never since the terrible catastrophe at
the Ring theater have the offices been
crowded by SO many thousands of SUI
perstitious spectators. The age of the
departed statesman S4 was, of
course, the favorite number, but it soon
became impossible to get even the frac-
ton of a ticket. All the factors and
multiples of the number were next
bought up with eager interest, and
there was run on every other figure
even remotely connected with the
hero's life. Many serious gamblers de-
spise these arithmetical coincidences
and follow the handbooks which assign
numbers to incidents and character
istics. One old woman entered an Of
flee and besought the clerk to tell her
what figures represented ''Reichskanz-
ler." The compilers of the mystic lists
had omitted this important word.
However" said the official, "Stag's hill
was Bismarck's favorite spot"-it is, in
fact, his burial place-"and stag is 20
"a first-class chance" The good lady
planked her hard-earned form on the
stag, but had no luck. Indeed, the
drawings so far have gone dead against
the believers in signs and omens.-Lon-
don Vanity Fair.

The White Man in the Tropics.

" HAtC A'AsAAA AAA TIC AEOphCbs
The attempt to acclimatize the white
man in the tropics must BE recognized
to be a blunder of the first magnitude.
All experiments based upon the idea
are mere idle and empty enterprises
foredoomed to failure. Excepting only
the deportation of the African races un-
der the situation of slavery, probably
no other idea which has held the mind
of our civilization during the last 300
years has led to so much physical and
moral suffering and degradation or has
strewn the world with the wrecks of
so many gigantic enterprises. In the
tropics white man lives and works
only as diver lives and works under
water. Alike in moral in an ethical
and in political sense, the atmosphere
he breathes must be that of another
region, that which produced him. and
to which he belongs. Neither physical
ly, morally nor politically can he be ac-
climated in the tropics.-Benjamin 8,
Kidd.

NEW YORK, Nov. ia special from
Washington says: Instructions have
been given by Secretary Long to the
officials of the navy yard at Brooklyn,
prohibiting them from commencing any
new work on the armorclads in North
Atlantic waters. With repairs on them
completed it is expected that within 10
days Commodore Philip will have under
his command an effective force consist
ing of the battleships and armored
cruisers now in commission, except the
Iowa and Oregon, which are now at
Rio Janeiro. These vessels will be
kept along the Brazilian coast for an
other 10 days at least, and by that time
the authorities say that the policy of
Spain with respect to the negotiations
will have finally developed.
The armored cruisers New York and
Brooklyn are in splendid condition; the
battleslip Massachusetts, will have COM
pleted her repairs during the present
week, and all construction work on the
Indiana will also be completed within
that time. Solar as the Texas is con-
cerned. naval officers say that a short
time only will be necessary to. repair
her propeller sleeve.

are ready, they will proceed to Hampton

DROP THE TEMPLE.
w. c. T. u. Decides to Abandon It's Inter-
est in the Chicago Building.

w. c. T. L. Decides to Abandon It's Inter-
est in the Chicago Building.
ST. PAUL. Nov. 16.-The WOman's
Christian Temperance union, by a vote
of 2S5 in the affirmative to II in the
negative, dropped the Woman's Temple
in Chicago as an affiliated interest and
disclaimed all connection with or inter-
est in the building which is intended to
be a memorial to the late temperance
leader, Miss Frances E. Willard.
The action of the convention was
taken after long session and pro-
tracted debate. during which many bit
ter words were exchanged between the
leading advocates on both sides Of the
Temple question. The lie direct was
not passed, but several times during the
afternoon delegates called each other to
account for misstatements, and it was
even charged by some that matters of
record had been distorted to apply to
the cases point.
The Templates, as the advocates of
the retention of the Temple are called,
declared that the w. G. T. U.
Had Repudiated Debt
which it was in honor bound to pay,
while the municipalities denied it.
They did not like the term Reputation
and said the w. G. 7. U. simply with
drew from any obligation to stand back
of the Temple project.
After the vote had been announced,
Mrs. Marion H. Durham Of Iowa offered
a resolution to the effect that, while the
w. G. T. U. no longer recognized the
Temple debt as legal obligation, it
still would consider it a moral obliga-
ton against it. This resolution, it was
agreed, will be considered later. It
may result in another battle, for there
are many delegates in the convention
who said that if they thought the drop
ping of the Temple would absolve the
w. G. T. U. from the moral phase of
the question they would vote to retain
the Temple.
