The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1898-11-17

The present session ot the StorthinS has
been very stormy one, and for the first
time in the history Of Scandinavia the
champions of Norwegian Independence
are in the majority. One OF the first pro-
ceedinCs of this session was TO invest tho
Storthing with the power to turn the regu-
lar troops into the ''Landevaern' (mlhtia).
the use OF which, according to the Old
constitutional provision, is forbidden be-
yond the Swedish frontiers. This depriveS
King Oscar OF the last chance to use tho
army for the common defence.
Before the Storthing adjourns it is be-
lieved that Norway will demand her own
consular and diplomatic service.
Since the beginning OF the year the stub
born Constitutional struggle between Nor
vay and Sweden has very often caused the
European press to predict civil war IN the
peninsula at no distant day. The rupture,
however, had been steadily growing since
November IS, 1895, when King Oscar III.
appointed q commission OF seven Swedish
and seven Norwegian members OF Parlia-
mont to examine the Act OF Union (Rik-
saht) of 1915 and to suggest amendments
calculated to obviate future friction.
The commission brought in four reports
last spring-a majority and minority report
for each acknowledgements which, be-
tween them, discussed multitude OF
thcrny questions without suggesting what
the King considered an acceptable solution
in any single instance. Two important
points upon which the Norwegian Com
fnissioners insisted were a separate Con-
sular Service and the display at legations
and eslhessi of the ancient Norwegian as
we'll as the swedish national standard.

Is Laughter Dangerous.

If physicians keep on making med

not be worth the living. People VIII
sDend so much Of their time in ind
ing out what not to do if they de-
sire 10 remain on this mundane sphere
that they will prefer to get out ana
take the chances somewhere else.
The latest nonsense, or at least it
seems nonsense to non-medical mind,
is perpetrated by a writer in the Brit
iSh Medical Journal who says that
laughter in itself cannot very well Kill,
but it may do harm. Hysterical girls
and boys with kindred nervous affec-
tons are often given to immoderate
laughter which tends to increase ner-
vous exhaustion. DR.. Feilchenfeld re-
lates a case in which little girl suf-
frred from very definite cardiac symp-
toms after immoderate laughter. The
patient was thirteen years old, and
had previously been free from any
sign of heart disease. After laughing

some companions she suddenly felt
stabbing pains in the chest. and was
seized with fits Of coughing, fol-
lowed by cardiac dyspnoea. very

that the cardiac disease directly re-
suited from immoderate laughing"
Looked At from an everyday stand
point most people will still believe
that it is better to laugh and die than
not to laugh and live. Heretofore the
world has thought that laughter
heightened life. and most people, in
spite of DR.. Feilchcnfeld, will con-
tinue to think so.

A VERY QUIET ELECTION.
The Entire List of Democratic
Nominees Elected.
A LIGHT VOTE WAS P0LLED.
Congressman Get Handsome Najorities, Even
in the First District Negroes Didn't
Do Any Harm.

Save for the totally unexpected
bloody riot in the neighborhood OF
Phoenix, in Greenwood county, the
election in South Carolina would have
been one of the quietest in the history
of the State. The vote everywhere was
light, exceedingly light, but the Re-
publicans seemed to have remained
away from the polls as well as the
Democrats, judging from the reports
sent IN from various points. Con-
gressman Elliott's majority is sutti-
ciently large not to endanger his seat
by contest.
Here is the Democratic State ticket
elected without opposition:
Governor-Wm. H. Ellerbe, incum-
bent Marion.

LEAVES WRECKED A TRAIN.
Clogged Air Brakes Caused Fatal Col

Clogged Air Brakes Caused a Fatal Col
lision Near Wilkesbarre, Penn.
W1LKEsBARRE, Penn. Especially The
Buffalo express on the Lehlgh Valley Rail-
road ran into the New York and Phila-

Mountain at 8 O'Clock Friday morning.
The killed and wounded taken from the
wreck are:
KilIed-Wil!iam Toxheima ar. fireman;
Fred CHASER, fireman; J. c. McGreSor, ex-

John Rohbling, engineer, WilHesbarre,
badly scalded Charles Morgan, express
messenger, scalded about head, and John

about head.
The Buffalo express, in charge OF EnSt-
,neer Rohbling, had orders to stop on sid
ing on the mountain and let the New YORK
express pass. AS Rohbling approached the
siding he discovered that the air brakes
would not work. The train was moving
about thirty miles an hour down ninety
foot grade. The engineer whistled franti-
cally for the hand brakes. BE knew the
other train was about due. tie reversed
his engine and stuck 10 his post, but could
not avert the collision.
In less than minute the express from
the west. drawn by two heavy engines, hove
in sight. A terrible crash followed on a
curve in a deep cut. Nearly all the passen.
gers on both trains were asleep. Many OF
these were thrown out OF their bcrtns by
the shock, but none was severely injured
An investigation shows that heavy
windstorm prevailed on the mountain tne
night before which caused the leaves from
the forest to accumulate on the track. The
engine plowed into these leaves, which
clogged the braking apparatus.

Joseph Tolbert, two of the leading fig.

hands of numbers of Lien who hail
from the up-country. The intensity of
their feelings had been increased by q
report that young Priystc. Miller OF
the First regiment who had been fired
upon from ambush near Phoenix had
died.
1t was about two o'clock in the after
noon when the news became current
that two of the Tolberts were in the
city, having gotten thus far on their
flight from Phoenix. At once excite.

was true.
Tie crowd on the watch was not Ger.

Finally tho men were taken down and
placed in carriage, being quickly driy,

him to handle their case. Judge Craw.
ford waived preliminary and the men
were escorted to his Office. In the
mainline Judge Crawford, knowing
the danger that threatened the men
if they were known to be in the city,
had applied to Judge Gary for an order
for the commitment Of his clients to the
State Denitentiary for safe-keeping.
The order was promptly granted and
Sheriff Cathcart then took charge OF
matters.

he reached the State prison Thursday
