Attorney w. f. Benedict left Tues
day for Pierre whittier he went to rep
resent Custer county In the case Of the
County vs. ex.Treasurer Tunley and
his bondsmen. The case is to be argued
before the supreme court October 9TH.
This is the case where the county
brought suit against Mr.. Tunley and his
bondsmen to recover about Sl,700.00 on
what is known as partial payments re-
ceived on taxes, and for which Mr..
Tunley failed to render an account in
his settlement with the county ut the
expiration Of his second term Of Office
The case was tried before referee and
,pdgment secured / favor of the
county for about $4,000 or $4,000.
The Hon, William Gardner, then Judge
OF this (Seventh) circuit, approved the
findings of the referee. In July, 1898,
the attorney for plaintiff made motion
for new trial before Judge McGee, who
oyerrued the motion. Neither side be-
ing satisfied with the judgment, they
took an appeal to the supreme court,
the plaintiff on the ground that they
should have received judgment for
the full amount sued for, and the de-
PENDANTS on the ground that they should
not be held liable for partial payments

Who are Anglo-SaxOns?

Much talk being ndulged in all over the Eng

original Angles are believed to have been mix
ed people, whose origin is enshrouded in the
lost mysteries of history Then came the mgra-
tions and conquests of the Danes, the Normans
the Romans, etc. Then again the Highlands of
Scotland were purely Celtic, and Ireland very
largely Hence the British became piebald

can more falsify history than to classify them as
Anglo-SaNons. When we come to consider our

Internal Poisoning Remedies.

A tablespoonful of ground mustard
in a glass of warm water, followed by
more warm water. until vomiting oc-
ours, is an excellent emetic. Common
salt will answer in the absence of mus
tard. Or glass Of cool water, with a
heaping teaspoonful each Of common
salt and ground mustard stirred into it,
is good. The whites Of eggs or cup
full of strong coffee are antidotes for q
greater number Of poisons than any
dozen other articles known, with the
advantage Of being easily accessible.
Sweet oil, lamp oil, drippings, melted
butter, or lard are good substitutes,
especially if they are vomited quickly.
Should vomiting continue excessively
after all traces Of poison have been
removed, it may often be relieved by
in,mersing the hands and wrists in as
hot water as can be.borne; meanwhile
give the patient clear, cold coffee or
cream Of tartar water.
Watelcress, used freely with salt
and vinegar, is an antidote to the in
huence Of tobacco. A strong decoc-
ton will destroy the poisonous effects
of nicotine.

The Rattlesnake's Master.

That story recently published in
the News and Courier about the won
derful weed called the 1'Rattlesnake S
Master" with which the Horticultural
department at Clemson College is ex-
perimenting, is not so romantic as
many would suppose. Tne weed has
been heard Of all through this section,
and there are people who have actually
known it to prove specific for snake
bite. DR.. Miles Walker, one Of the
leading physicians Of this section, is
familiar with the weed and he has
seen it used with success.
"There are two different kinds OF
weed that are known by different peo-
ple as the 'Rattlesnake Master, said
DR.. Walker to the reporter few days
ago. Gone Of them grows up some
thing like the tube rose, with leaves
somewhat longer and broader, and the
other looks like fern. Of the fern
variety, 1 know nothing except that |
have had it pointed out to me as the
weed in question; but Of the other l
have more positive knowledge. have
seen it tested.
ssIt was over in Union county some
years ago. continued DR.. Walker.
Gone Of my neighbors, Mike Sellers,
of Star Farm, vas quiet, easy going
Irishman, of few words, but Of good
deal Of common every day informa-
ton. Passing by bis house one day,
I observed an unuasal stir among his
people, and going in I found Mike ly-
ing on the piazzain heavy perspiration,
with bunch Of herbs lying by his
side and bucket Of water standing
on the floor within easy reach.
"'What is the matter with you,
Mike, I asked.
"Snake bit; that's all, he replied.
"'What kind?'
Big old copperhead, about three
feet long, bit me on the calf Of the
leg
"'You are drinking whiskey for it,
Of course?'
NO; doing nothing but eating
that weed and drinking water. | will
be all right after awhile.
Sure enough within about three.
hours Sellers had entirely recovered
from the effects of the bite, andfelt no
further Inconvenience except slight
faintness which passed away entirely
before the next day. I was very deep
ly interested, of course, and at the
first convenient opportunity, took oc-
casion to ask Sellers how the weed af-
fected him. He said that within about
FIVE minutes after chewing up and
swallowing the weed, there came a
burning, irresistible thirst, to cool
which he felt like it would require
barrel Of water. The more water he
drank the more he wanted, and before
many minutes the perspiration began
to flow freely from every pore. This
was about all there was of it.
Sometime after that" concluded
DR.. Walker, II was sent for to attend
case Of snakebite-highland mocca-
sin, copperhead, or rattlesnake's COM
panion-the same kind Of snake that
had bitten Sellers. I sent to Sellers
and got some Of the 'Rattlesnake's
Master which had since begun to
grow in his garden, and had the pa
tient to take it as Sellers had done.
The interval between the bite and the
commencement Of treatment was some
what longer than in the case of Sellers:
but the patient recovered all right,
and there were no bad after effects. .
