The condition of Miss Huldah Nc
Neel, who is down with fever, wa
quite critical on Saturday and Sunday
There has since been much improve
ment.
Mr.. Howard Caldwell leaves today
to enter upon his Y. NJ. c. A. work a

graph on the subject, his plans have
been changed and he goes to Chicka
mauga instead of to Charleston.
Mrs. M. J. Clark, who has been alb

months, visiting her daughter, Mrs. DR.

of Mr.. and Mrs. G.. T. Radcliffe.
THE ENQUIRER is in receipt of
letter from Mr.. F. A. Gosman, wht
left recently to join the navy. Aftel
getting to Charleston he found tha
he would have to go either to Norfolk
or New York before he could enlist
Taking advantage of an opportunity
that presented, he went down to Jack
sonville, Fla, and communicated with
General Lee, who advised that under
the circumstances it would be best tt
join the volunteer army. Accordingly
he connected himself with Company F

unseen foes. Even the Spanish rifles
made no smoke. The position of the
enemy could only be located by sound !,
and all accounts agree that the firing
was simply terrific.
Many time, under similar circum-
stances, brave men have broken into a
dlsorderly rout. Had the Rough Ri
ders done the same they could hardly
have heen subjected to blame. But with
bullets buzzing about their heads like
bees, and comrades falling about them
dead or wounded on every hand, they
stood their ground for nearly two
hours, sending back shower of bull
lets that must have been as demoral-
izing as that which was coming from
the enemy.
The test on the courage of the men
moral and physical-was the most
severe that can be imagined. Of the
strength of the enemy they had no
definite information. If they thought
of such matters at all, they could have
only calculated that all stood good
chance of being killed. The incentive
to letreat seemed overpowering but so
far as is reported not man showed
the white feather.
And this is what saved the day.
With such a thoroughly demoralizing
hail of death pouring into the one side
from the other, it was only a question
of minutes when one side would have
to give way. Had the Americans
turned their backs, or showed signs of
wavering, that open space at the edge
of the thicket would have speedily
become what the Spaniards intended
it fora slaughter pen. But as the
Americans were determined to hold
their ground, the only other thing that
could occur had to occur-the Span
larQS gave way.
1t was q critical time for the Amer
lean fortunes. The spirit of the in
vading army was running high. They
felt a wholesome superiority over the
Spaniards. Had the Rough Riders
suffered themselves to be defeated, the
demoralizing effect would have been
tremendous. In standing their ground
like brave American veterans, they
not only routed the Spaniards there !;
but they no doubt saved hundreds,
and, probably, thousands, of American
lives that would have been subse-
quently sacrificed before the effects of
their defeat could have been over
come.
So we look at it now. Let us hope
this view is correct and patiently wait
further developments. But in the
meantime, let US not fail to accord all
honor to the American grit displayed
by the Rough Riders last Friday.

McQUARY AGAIN.

The ENQUIRER has heard from Mr..
T. Allen McQuary again. This time
it is only few words on postal card
that was mailed at Yokohoma, Japan,
on June l, received at Tacoma, Wash
ington, on June 10, and at Yorkville,
last Saturday night, June 25.
In his card Mr.. McQuary says he
expected to leave Yokohoma the next
day after the card was written, which
would be June 1, the same day it was
mailed. On account of the war, he
said he would sail for Seattle, Wash
ington, instead of San Francisco. Just
what the war has to do with the change
of programme the card does not ex-
plain, and we are able only to surmise..
If Mr.. McQuary got off from Yoko-
oma according to programme, then he
should have arrived at Seattle before
this, for his ship sailed at the same
time as the one which brought the
card, and the card had to travel six
days after reaching Tacoma.
At Seattle, according to programme,
Mr.. McQuary is to be met by his dogs
again, and he will also procure anoth-
er horse. Then having ridden 5000
miles overland, he will have to ride
some 1000 miles more on a round
about route to his home in Missouri.
In the Chicago Blade of last Satur-
day is letter from McQuary that is al
most identical with the one published
in The ENQUIRER Of June Is. 1t is
dated at Yokohoma, May l9th-same
date as THE ENoUIRER's letter-and
the only material difference is that it
goes rather more into details; but not
enough to warrant its republication.
One point of especial interest is Nc
Quary's reference to his trip to Cuba.
He says he managed to get General
Blanco to sign his book, but failed as
to General Gomez. Also he visited
the battleship Maine.
The ENQUIRER has no specific
promise of anything further from Mr..
Quarry but he may write again, and if
so his letters will certainly be publish
ed.

- The northern papers, a year OF
two ago, devoted great deal of space
to unfriendly criticisms of the battle
ship Texas. 1t was suggested at the
time that this talk was occasioned
principally by the fact that the vessel
was the first big warship to be built in
the south Newport Newsl, and now
it looks as if this must have been q
fact, for up to date the Texas has done
more fighting than any other ship oi
the fleet, and not only this, all of her
work has been of firstclass quality.

- With those candidates who are
opposing the policy of such large ex'
penditures of public money for higher
education, we agree fully. We do moi
think that expenditures for education
al purposes should be reduced; but
a much larger per cent. Of it should
90 to the common schools. However
this is a matter for legislative rather
than gubernatorial candidates.

G. Walt Whitna

G. Walt whitman.
New York Sun a: One candidate fol
the Democratic nomination for govern
or of South Carolina sinks or swims
under a name of mark. We learn
from the Augusta Herald that "Wall
Whitman is unique" although he
bears a name of reincarnation. The
Palmetto Walt "courts the bicycle
vote. He has a wheel and a costume
and instead Of patronizing the rail-
roads like the other candidates, he
scorches from one town to another.
makes his speech, and without waiting
for the meeting to close starts out fol-
the next town." Thus does Walt
Whitman combine a rapid canvass
with the stern joy of not paying q
cent to railroad corporations. Still
the disciples of Captain Ben Tillman
must regard a candidate on casters as
frivolous and vain person, capable
of being a money changer.

of Lieutenant Hobson and his brave

unfortunately, precedents can be found

be more advanced than Spain in the
