Will Not Learn Wisdom.

Negro missionaries in the lower sec
tion Of the State are still taking the
dollars from the old slaves whose
heads aye set on getting Government
pensions. It is said here that the
movement got big "boost" from the
recent convention at Ravenels, and
that the negroes are more anxious
than ever to get in the ranks, not
withstanding the fact that they have
been told and warned to stay out and
save their money. The hope Of rich
re, ards has drifted into the negroes
soul, however, and as long as there are
missionaries to preach there will be
listeners ever ready to stand for any
thing suggested in the money line.
The better class Of colored people are
still trying to convince the rabble
that the scheme is foolish and many
have accepted and followed his advice.
According to the estimate Of Off
GERS, there are nearly two thousand
members Of the order in South Caro-
lima. The fact that each member pays
81 35 for the privilege shows how.
much is being collected, though just
where his money goes is not explain

The Size OF the Sun.

The earth on which We stand is, no
doubt, mighty globe, measuring as it
does, 5000 miles in diameter, yet, says
Pearsons Weekly, what are its dimen-
sions in comparison with those Of the
sun?
If the earth be represented by grain
of mustard seed, then on the same scale
the SUN should be represented by a
cocoanut.
Perhaps, however, more impressive
conception Of the dimensions Of the
great orb OF day may be obtained in
this way: Think of the moon, the queen
of the night, pursuing as she does q
majestic track, at a distance Of 240, 900
miles from the earth. Yet the sun is
so vast that if it were hollow ball
the moon could revolve in the orbit
which it now follows and still be en-
tirely enclosed within the SUMS interior.
Every portion of this illilnitable
desert OF dame is pouring forth torrents
OF heat. 1t has, indeed, been estimated
that it the heat which is necessarily
flowing through any single square foot
OF the SUMS exterior could be collected
and applied beneath the boilers of an
Atlantic liner, it would suffice to pro-
duce steam enough to sustain in con.
tlnuOus movement those engines OF
10000 horsepower which enable a
superb ship to break therecord between
Ireland and America.

Keep Blowing Away.

A young lady organist i'll a church in
Colorado was somewhat captivated
with the young pastor of a church in
the next street, and was delighted to
hear one week that by an exchange he
was to preach the next Sunday in her
own church, says an exchange. The
organ was pumped by an obstrepcrous
old sexton, who would often stop when
he thought the organ voluntary had
lasted long enough. This day the Or
ganist was anxious that all should go
we'll, and as the service was about to
begin she wrote note intended solely
for the sexton's eyes. He took it, and,
in spite Of her agonized beckonings,
carried it straight to the preacher.
What was that gentleman's astonish
ment when he read: "Oblige me this
morning by blowing away till give
you signal to stop. Miss Allen

Photographing The Stomach.

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, July 3.-,Photo-
graphing the interior Of a man 8 stom-
ach, an experiment which has hitherto
been attended with so many failures
as to cause it to be considered almost
among the impossibilities, has been
successfully performed in this city.
The inner walls Of the stomach Of Jas.
G.. Foster, wealthy lumberman OF
Cleveland, Ohio, were successfully
photographed with the result that a
large tumor was discovered to have
formed in the organ, which, according
to the physicians in attendance, would
have caused his death in short time.
Mr.. Foster has left for Cleveland,
taking the photograph with him, and
as guide. he will be operated on in a
Cleveland hospital. The apparatus
used in the picture consists OF rub
.ber tube, one-eighth Of an inch in di-
ameter and about three inches long.
The interior Of the bulb is coated with
Photographic emulsion, and acts as
the plate on which the picture is
taken. The patient is made to swal-
low the bulb, which is to be inflated
by means of air blown into the tube
until the bulb entirely fills the stom-
ach, its flexible sides conforming to
the walls Of the stomach. An X-ray
posture is taken, the tube is with
drawn and the picture Of the thin rub
Der bulb is developed as ordinary \
ray photography.

Augusta, and Che latter Of Elbert
county, who met at Fury's Ferry,
about II miles from Augusta up the
river.
Smythe was wounded in the ARRAY.
Many other duels were fought at the
ferry grounds. AS stated, people
would come from many States to settle
things la code Of honor.
It will be remembered that about
year ago the late Col. Felix Holmes
the well-known barber-and another
man went down there to- fight it out,
but arranged things before blood was
shed.
An account Of the affair, written by
Mr.. Milledge Lockhart, nc" Of the
New York Times, but then reporter
on The Herald, appeared in the latter
paper.
Il created a good deal Of talk at the
time.
That was the last time that anyone
has gone to the noted duelling grounds
to settle difficulty with another.
In mentioning the Sandbar ferry
duelling grounds it should be stated
that not only was there many duels
fought on the Georgia side, but also
almost as many on the Carolina side.
There was no particular spot where
these duels occurred, but within ra-
dius Of mile from the ferry proper
did the shooting occur. In mention
ing the duelling grounds such an area
is meant.
The authorities never interfered
with duel. If the parties to the af-
fair wanted to perforate themselves
| they were not hampered by the law.
But that was some time since. OF
course, now such thing would be nip
ped in the bud if the authorities got
wind of such.
The days Of duelling are over, but
! the historic note Of Sandbar ferry not
ed duelling grounds will never die.
The mere mention Of the place
brings to mind pistols, early morning,
two parties ready to kill or die, a step
ping off Of so many PAGES, the words,
"Ready, FIRE p and an affair Of honor
settled satisfactory to one anyhow.
It is best that duelling is over.
There are better ways Of settling diff
culties. Sandbar ferry is no more the
place of bloodshed. The pistols ring
out no more at that place, and few
people are with US, who can tell from
personal knowledge Of seeing a duel,
| of what Sandbar ferry was in ye olden
| DAYS.

of the Deceased.

Funeral services were held yesterday af

ter Griffith. who died at his home, AS
Stanton Place Friday afternoon of paraly-
sis and heart failure The services were
held at the late home of the deceased and
the remains, in charge Of Mrs. Rycroft, IA
daughter. were sent to New York at 1045
last night, where they will be placed in a
vault temporarily at Woodlawn Cemetery.
The services we're conducted by the Rev.
T. c. Easton. ID. D., pastor of the Eastern
Presbyterian Church, of which the de-
ceased was a member The eulogy Of DR..
Easton bore chiefly upon the sterling char
acter and exemplary life of Mr.. Griffith
He reviewed his career as follows: The
Hon. Wilson w. Griffith was born in Tus-
carawas county, Ohio, in the year 1923,
and departed this life May ~. 1899. He
was what is familiarly known as self
made man. His success in life was due
largely 10 his individual ambition and ear
nest purpose and industry, so essential to
every laudable achievement. He obtain
ed liberal education at Oberlin College,
Ohio, and in the early part of his career
he engaged in school teaching. after which
he established himself in the general mer-
chandise business near the scenes OF
his earlier life. He afterward moved
his business to the northern portion
OF Indiana, where he became in
terested in the grain forwarding and
commission business, with headquar-
ters at Toledo. He wes one of the chief
founders Of the Milburn Wagon Works of
that city, now one OF the largest OF its
kind in the world. At the time of his death
he still retained his interest in that con-
cern. He founded the Mechanics Nation
al Bank, of Toledo and was for many
years its honored president.
Intense application to business made
severe inroads on his health, ana about
| five years ago he removed TO this city to
/ spend the remainder of his years. He
was a man OF gentle and humane spirit,
/ and became identified with all the local
! Christian and missionary movements OF
! the Congregational churches of Toj5do.
( He served as = representative in the Legs-
I lature of the State of Ohio. and was the
l author OF several bills affecting the indus
Z trial progress of the entire Commonwealth.
Mr.. Griffith was an extensive traveller,
and had studied social religious. and uom-
mercial questions in all countries. He was
a man genial and aifable in his intercourse
sight and clear judgment into commercial
affairs. His life was simple and unostcn-
tatious, and his long, severe Illness was
I borne with most noble Christian fortitude.
A wife and two children are left to mourn
their loss, Ethelbert Griffith, Esq, Of To-
ledo, Ohio, and Mrs. Rycroft, of New York
I whose husband is now en- route to Europe
The choir OF the Eastern Presbyterian
Church rendered several selections during
the services.

WRESTLER ROBBERS OPINION.
He Thinks Fitzsimmons VIII Defeat
Jcifrics Quickly and Easily

The coming of Ernest Roeber. the cham
pion Graeoo- Roman wrestler; to this city
for a weeks stay will enliyen things among
the local knights of the mat. Roeber is
meeting all comers ana offers $25 to any
one whom he fails to throw within fifteen
minutes or 800 to any one gaining a fall
from him in the same time He has
brought two wrestling partners with him
Charlie Lenhart and Leo Pardello, whom
he will pit against local men OF lighter
calIbre For these bouts special purses
will be offered.
Rulber IS an ardent admrer Of Fitz-
simmons and thinks the auburn-h haired
blacksmith the greatest boxer the ring ever
knew. He takes little stock in the stories
that the alien has gone back. and he
thinks Fijzsimmons will defeat Jeffries
easily. Roeber has been with the Aus
tralian in many Of his important contests,
and he probably knows as much about the
physical condition of the Antipodean as
any man living. In view of the fact that
FitZsimmons and Jeffries are TO meet for

There is another point that sounded

| ridiculous in the eNtreme. II the truth were
known. those reports were circulated mere
Iy to influence the betting. II anybody
thinks Bob has a stitch or stutter in one
of his arms they are entirely wrong. Both
of his arms are in perfect condition, and
he will prove II when ne meets the big
Californian. You can put me on record as
saying that Bob will defeat him quickly
declslvely, and impressvely, and that the
bout will not last longer than from -four
to eight rounds
