SOUTH CAROLINA MARRIAGES
VIII Not Come AS Easy AS They
Have Hitherto.

Columbus, S. c., Jan. 16.-The
house has put the first slight bar
rier in he way Of getting married
ia South Carolina by passing bill
requiring marriage licenses. That
is, the license must be issued by
the judge of probate court of the
county in which the marriage is to
be solemnized, for which a fee of IS
cents shall be charged.
Any persons who shall perform a
marriage without being shown a
license will be guilty of a INSIDE
meauor, and shall be punished by a
fine not to exceed $500, or be i'm
prisoned not to exceed one year.

There is One Thing That No In-

Gazette
Not that the Incubator is now IN
Worcester or anywhere else, Tor it
is not. 1t has been used for years
bv the men who raise chickens for
the market 1t has been proved a
great money-saver. A good incu-
bator can turn out from 200 to $50
chickens a day. There are no in
cubator unions; they work over
time, night and day in fact. without
extra pay: they are patient, uncom-
planning slaves, who increasingly
strive to improve on nature to the
end that their owners may grow
rich on their earnings.
But with all their advantages
they have their failings, like all
things made of man. Man, IN his
conceit and ignorance, has tried to
make the incubator do what the
hen does. aud do it better. To a
degree he has succeeded;in the main
he has failed. The incubator can
hatch more eggs than can a good
sized flock of hens, but it cannot do
the work as well.
The great number of deformed
chickens which are to be found in
tie poultry farms to-day can be
Justly attributed to the incubator.
why in should be the cause of de
forming chickens in the process of
incubation is a question of much
discussion among expert chicken
raisers, but the fact remains. T.
Farrar Rackham, of Orange, N. J
superintendent of the show, gives
his opinion on this question, which
seems to be the opinion of chicken
raisers.
The sitting hen, he says, leaves
the nest about once a day. On re-
turning she settles down on the eggs
and strikes movementof the wings
and feathers which lasts for some
moments. by 50 doing she turns
the eggs once day. This is shown
by putting a mark on the eggs when
the hen is away. Visit the nest the
next time she leaves, ard il viii be
found that the marks which were on
top are no longer in sight, every
egg in the nest having been turned
halfway round.
Everything the hen does man has
tried to make the incubator do, but
here he has failed. There has never
been contrivance made which
could turn the egg, or by which they
could be turned, as the hen turns
them.

The London Times in recent is
sue OF that paper summed up the
situation in the following language:
1.-The most carefully planned and ex-
ecuted movement of the whole campaign
has entirely failed, and it can hardly be
necessary to dwell up onthe extreme prob
ability that we shall learn, little soon
er or little later of a catastrophe almost
beyond precedent in our military history,
catastrope, indeed, without parallel
except in the surrender of Yorktown"
The Times surely had reason for
this expressed apprehension. 1t has
seen the hand writing on the wal and
the British government will see it
thus soon if it has not already.

THAT SUBSIDY BILL.

That ship subsidy bill now before
congress is harmless one on the
face Of it, but the scheme is apparent
IN all its infamy to those who will
think for themselves. 1t isa protec-
ton theorists conception and contem-
plates an avenue of plumber. for the
shlp-owners unprecedented with a
similar enterprise in the history of
the government.
This obnoxious bill would secure
10 the snip men an opportunity to
draw in short time the startling.
appalling sum of $1,000, 900 an
nually from the government, but
through this enterprise the govern
ment would receive practically no
benefit. Besides this objection to
the measure, there is another reason
why the men who stand firmly for
the commonweal should fight it, and
1t Is this: If such bill should pass,
shipbuilding firms would form a trust
and perhaps double tue price of
ships, which would drive the smaller
shipbuilders out of business and
place the American people at the
mercy of the would-be king builders
OF this country's ships.
1t is well for the statesmen friends
OF the American people to keep an
eye on this bill that is designed to
rob the government of $4,000, 600
per year. The scheme is not in the
interest of the masses, but rather in
behalf of gang of men who discern
a means to open up away for whole
sale appropriation of the people's
money May the bill meet the fate
1t deserves-defeat.

For over fifty years in Mexico Il

He sent for the men who encouraged
the revolutions and offered them
good wages to join the army, then
and there assuring them that if they
persisted in their profession he would
completely exterminate them. The
result was, most of them joined the
