Correspondence Columbia State
Spartanburg had something of SEN
sation on Saturday, when it was learn
ed that w. H. Darden, deputy clerk OF
court, and Miss Pearl Floyd, eldest
daughter of Colonel A. G. Floyd, had
eloped and disappeared. Nobody
seems to know where they have gone
but it is safe to presume that they will
reappear when the honeymoon is over.
The Chester Cotton Mill.
News and Courier, Tuesday: A
second order has been taken in the
limited States circuit court for the sale
of the Chester Cotton mill by Colonel
J.E. Hagood, the special master. The
property was put up for sale, sometime
ago: but no bids were offered. The
upset price has been reduced from
SEC, 900 to $4,000, and the sale will
take place on January IL.
Condition of the Schools.
Superintendent of Education May
fields report shows that the enrolment
in the public schools of the state dur,
ing the fiscal year was whites, 125, ,1O2
coIored, 15O,7s7. OF the whites the
number of females enrolled was 6l,'
3s6: males, 63,716. Of the colored,
7e 22S were females and 7l.55l males
The grand total was 275,SS9. Iht
average school term for the public
schools of the state was four mouths.
Wealthy Mr.. Tolbert.
Greenwood Index: In his state
ments about his property, Tolbert
does some characteristic prevaricating
Tolbert tells the public that he is
worth between $4,000 and 100000
and that he owns $500 acres Of land
He returns for taxation 8S3 acres o
land, valued at 1000, and personally
to the extent of $643-this in Green
wood county. He may have property
in Abbeville but it is certainly small
amount, and the above is the swori
rating of himself.
Numerous Liquor Seizures.
News and Courier, Tuesday: The
constables, it appears, are seizlng
great deal of liquor. Governor Ellerhe
said to-day that the state constable'
were seiziug more liquor than they
have ever before done, and that there
has been more liquor seized withll
the last year than during any tW'
wears before his administration. H'
thinks the seizures are remarkable
He saws that the records show VIVA
has been done by the constables in tn
matter of seizures, and that this is tn
best way of crushing out the "tigers.
If the "tiger" keepers are not convic'
ed it is not his fault.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an intlamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets intlamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrt
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrt
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Mr.. John Plaxco, who lives in the
Zadok neighborhood, lost his cotton
house by fire last Thursday evening
about dark. There were about l5
bales of seed cotton in the house, and
about 10 were saved. 1t is thought
that the fire came from the cotton
field, where one of the pickers had
been smoking most of the day. There
was no insurance.
