To the Coffee-ite!

There is room for one coffee
that is really choice one that
you will remember for days after
ward. If such a coffee could
be made you would be hungry
for cup.
We'll, it has been made! 1t
is the full-growth, choice pulp
(the heart, so to speak,) of the
best berries from Java and
Arabia. 1t is twice better than
it need be to sell, but no better
than you want to drink.
1t could have been bought at
third less cost and still be
genuine Java and Mocha. 1t
has cost two cents pound to
sort " it. A tenth of this labor
would have been called good
sorting BY most firms. 1t could
y have been roasted with half the
4 care it has had, and you would
q still think it fine coffee.
But even to the imported, air
: tight, parchment-lined bags in
: which it is packed, it is all done
+ after the high Turkish fashion.
If you want to try a cup of it
ask your grocer for Chase &
Sanborn's "HIGH-GRADE" COT
fee, sold under the Seal Trade
mark, with signed guarantee.
It will make your mouth water
Your grocer has it.

The early age at which Washington
developed the tender passion has beeo
noticed. In fact, i. was despair at the
Rrcompronising attitude Of certain
"Lowland Beauty" that caused him 10
Zee to the domain of Lord Fairfax,
afterwards his patron. The nooie
gentleman had left England and buried
himself in tho wilderness on account
of 4 disappointed passion; perhsp:
George, who was then coming 10, felt
that there night be 3 bond between
two such wounded hearts; At any rate
be fore be had been many months undei
Fairfax's eyes, just as he was com'
plsting his 18th year, he set cut on
surveying expedition. Tho English
mans ground included thousands O.
acres of tie most fertile country IL the
world, extending in wide strip from
the sea to the Alteghanies.
It was no small sign Of confidence tt

70 BE TRIED FOR HIS LIFE.

Mr.. Nick Myers, formerly OF this
county, but who has for q number Of
years been living in Florida, is to be
tried for his life on the 1st Of March
He has been accused of killing man
in Florida and is to be tried for the
crime. Mr.. Myers was gallant Con-
ieds.ate soldier and served during the
war in Gen. Brstton's brigade. His
friends in Fairfield are fully convinced
of his innocence, and after hearing Of
the trouble that be is in some of his
Winnsboro friends have contributed
money to help him out OF his Diff
culty. All'of the money that is need
ed has not yet been collected, but
after the facts have been brought to
the notice of the people others will
probably come forward with contrl-
buttons. 1t is hoped that Mr.. Myers
will be able to prove his innocence,
and his friends who deeply sYmpathize
with him will await anxieusly toe
result of the trial.

w. j. BRYAN

the army and navy. may see fit to as
W. j. BRYAN
The president saw fit to ignore this
offer and there has been nothing in
his administration TO show that it
wasn't petty spite on the part of the
chief executive whose time was prob
ably taken up in issuing commissions
to the unknown sons of millionaires
and politicians.
But Mr.. Bryan enlisted as private.
When company a held its election he
was nominated for captain, but prompt
ly declined. saying he preferred to re-
main in the ranks as a pupil. When
the regiment was finally recruited the
governor of Nebraska commissioned
Mr.. Bryan its colonel and at the ear
nest solicitation of General Vivquain.
veteran of the civil war who was made
second in command, Mr.. Bryan ac-
cepted.
1t was a foregone conclusion, and
every silver newspaper in the United
States made the prediction that Bryan
would be held in some pest camp or
other while the pets and favorites of
the politicians in power would be given
all the opportunities afforded for ser
vice and distinction. The Third Ne
braska was sent to Florida and not to
the Philippines, where Funston, his
neighbor, swan infested rivers to i'm
mortal renown." At the close of the
war with Spain it was still in Florida.
For month or more it remained there.
Half the men were stricken down with
fever. Colonel Bryan himself was i'll.
Finally he decided that, having enlisted
for war and not for the purpose of
drawing a coloners pay or strutting
around in a uniform, he rendered his
resignation.
But there was not a day of the six
months of his enlistment that William
j. Bryan was not an object of just such
scandalous, villainous, contemplate as
saults as that in the above quoted ex-
cerpt from a Republican newspaper of
the east. And the shame of it is that
the editors who are guilty of it and
the politicians who sanction and en-
courage it pretend to speak for the
administration in all things, to love the
soldier and to despise those who ques-
ton his loyalty and his motives for en-
listment.

WONDERFUL SHOOTING.
At Least Both Spectators Regarded
It As Such.
weekly Telegram.)

CWeekly Telegram.)
There is a man who when the stars
are out above rigs up a telescope at the
corner Of a certain street in s.,
wherewith to study astronomy at six
pence a suuint. One night as he was
getting under way, two Irish "gintle-
men, were seen to be taking an OBJ
servation of his movements.

Hadn't we better be Citing out iv

"Shure an it's no use" was the an
swer; didn't yez ever hear of shooting
stars?''
By this time the telescope man had
arranged his instrument and squinted
through it up at the stars. The Irish
men looked up likewise, in wonder. Just
then, by an odd chance, a large meteor
shot down the sky.
''Bedad. he hit it, He's fetched it

CONDEMNED TO HARD LABOR.

Convicts in the states prison should
be provided with work to keep them
from idleness, sickness and insanity. 1t
is to the interest of taxpayers that
prisoners should be made, so far as
possible, self-suppOrting But free la
Dor should be protected from compe-
tition with convict labor. 1t is no easy
matter TO provide work for prisoners
that does not compete with the labor
done outside. To compel prisoners to
make their own clothing inferferes with
the business of those who otherwise
would furnish what they need. When
they raise their own vegetables it
means a decreased demand for those
produced on the outside.
But the line of distinction should be
drawn somewhere. Convicts might be
made to build roads, reservoirs, or do
some public work that would not be
done except in this way. And they
should be required to raise the bulk of
the produce consumed in all the penal
and charitable institutions of the state.
This arrangement should strike all
classes as being reasonable and fair.
with no tendency to enter into promis-
cuous competition with free laborers,
or with small manufacturers or trades
men.
Convicts should be given labor to do
for sanitary and moral reasons. The
state should give it to them as a mat
ter of economy and self-protection.
