A Deserved Tribute.

Solicitor Anscl is now on his last round
as prosecuting attorney for the State in
the Eighth judicial Circuit, and the
tribute paid him last week by our grand
jury was just and deserved one.
We do not believe South Carolina ever
had n moro jealous, faithful or conscicn-
tious Solicitor than he, and in voluntarily
retiring from tho Office he carries with
him the confidence and good will of
every law-abiding citizen.

Close Of the Baptist Protractcd Meeting.

been conducted in the Baptist church at
this place since the evening of Scptom-
bcr 9th were concluded last Sunday
night. Rev. Oliver j. Copeland, of An
dcrson, assisted tho pa astor and did tho
greater part of the preaching, services
being held in the morning and evening
each day. The attendance for tho first
two or three meetings was rather small,
but increased in interest and numbers
until the last service when tho largo
building OF the Baptist congregation was
not sufficient to accommodate tho con
grcgaton. On Sunday night not more
than two-thirds of the people could find
seats in tho building. Tho doors and
windows were filled with anxious listen
crs. Mr. Copeland preached somo twenty
forciblc and earnest gospel sermons. The
business houses Of tho town were closed
during each service for tho last week.
We feel that much and lasting good may
have resulted. If not, the fault docs not
lie at the door of the preachers. The

Boer Troops in Northern Natal Said to
Op.nulnber the Rritist.
Lc:;poN, Jan. 16.-General Buffers
latest authentic word as to what he
and his 10000 men are doing was wired
from Springfield after his first step
forward. Striving to think out the
unknown, London is confused by sur
mise and rumor and disquieted by sus-
pense. Spencer Wilkinson, the lucid
military expert of the Morning Post,
asserts that the Boer force in northern
Natal is larger than General Buffers
and Sir George Whites together, so
that the Beers are able to leave a force
around Ladysmith larger than that
within the town and yet to oppose
General Butler with force superior to
his own. Reports from the Boer
camps affirm that the circle of invest
ment has been drawn closer by the
occupation of some hills nearer the
town, thus liberating reinforcements
to oppose General Butler.

.'Sir Charles Warren marched with

Beers are preparing to leave Natal,
discouraged by their failure to reduce

Cuban Generals Make Fierce Speeches at
Santiago.
SANTIAGO, Cuba, Jan. ,13.-The Gu
ban generals, Miro, Rabi and Castro,
spoke to large gathering at the San
Carlos club. Each of them alluded to
the conferences in Havana with Gov
ernor General Wood. Gen. Fchevarria
introduced the speakers, saying that
they represented the true Cuban senti-
ment. The tenor of all the speeches
was that every Cuban should work for
the realization of the Cuban ideal of
independence, and should equip him
self-for the time when the Americans,
showing their real colors, should an
nounce the annexation of the island.
General Castro said: "We will take to
the hills, from whence our strength
comes. This is question of whether
the Cubans will succumb to the appar-
ent superiority of the Americans or
assert that superiority they have
demonstrated on SO many former occa-
sions under Spanish rule" The hub
bub caused by the speeches continued
all night. Major Andrews will station
a company of the Fifth regulars in the
city to prevent any demonstration.
Cubans generally are showing a dispo-
sition to resent American dominion.
The papers are full of condemnations
of the American system relative to the
island. They declare that it is the ev-
ident intention to repudiate all the
promises made bv congress-

SEATTLE, Wash, Jan. 15.-Eight
thousand regular troops in the prov

Two bodies of Chinese soldiers have
also been sent by Governors Sung and

the field. The insurgents are we'll
armed and both order and discipline
are observed. They are led, it is said,
by experienced army officers, who re-
tired because of disgust at the treat
ment they received at the hands Of the
Chinese government. They claim that
the government has used them in
hours of danger, and then dismissed
them without provision. On their
part, the insurrection is sort of pro-
test at bad treatment. The govern
ment fears That there may be vide

the insurrection also menaces Kwang-

Germany and France Forbid tho Sale of
War Materials.
BERLIN, Jan. 16.-The order given
by the German government TO the firm
OF Krupp in Essen not to sell any war
material whatsoever to either the Brit
ish or the Beers is meant for every
German firm. The government, too,
has made it very plain that even the
sale OF contraband goods to third par
ties will be considered inadmissablc,
It such goods are likely thereafter to
become the property of either of the
two warfaring parties. The govern.
ment's determination to preserve the
strictest neutrality may even necessi-
tate much more severe measures
should, contrary to all expectations.
Its plainly expressed wishes be ignored
by merchants and manufacturers. It
is fully expected here that in that case
,ahe export of contraband goods would
be prohibited and seizures be required
to. The F ench government has taken
very much the same attitude toward
rltaln as Germany. This boycott by
e two countries who are most ad-
1anced in the manufacture of war ma.
terial has led the British cove rnment
to open up negotiations with Italian
gun manufacturers. With what sue.
cess remains to be seen. 1t is expected
here that the italian government will
follow the course of its ally, Germany.

INSANE DOCTORS CRIME.
AIaltreats and Kills Ten-Months-o Ola
Glalld !


Child.
Hampton dispatch: DIR. G. w. APP
pleby, for several years the leading
physician of Bristol, Butler county, in
a fit of insanity killed ten-months-
old child of Henry YEARLY, of this
place, while making an examination.
The parents had brought the child to
be treated for some trifing ailment.
DR.. Appleby took the child in his arms
and handled it so roughly that the par
ents protested, but to no avail. Sud-
denly putting his thumbs under its
chin and with his fingers on top of its
head, he crushed its face in SO that the
blood gushed from its nose and mouth.
Then jumping up he seized the child
by one foot and began swinging it
around his head, resisting all efforts of
the terror-striclken parents to stop him
and it was not until help was gotten
that the child was taken from him.
Three or four hours after the occur
renee he seemed apparently rational
and said he knew what he was doing
when he killed the child, but could
not help it. The cause of his insanity
is supposed to be religious excitement,
he having lately been attending pro-
tracted meetings and manifested great
interest therein.

Republicans Preparing to Use Force
Against Goebel.
LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. 11.-Every-
thing is ready for an uprising in Ken
lucky if the legislature and state
election commission try to remove the
republicans from the state Offices to
which they were elected by the people.
Ex-Governor Bradley has formulated
the plans for resisting the action of
the democratic body. One thousand
stalwart republicans will be sum-
moned to Frankfort as witnesses in
the contest cases, and they are all to
be armed and ready for any emer-
gency. This city will furnish about so
such men. Winchester will send Is,
Paris 10 or more, and other cities and
towns in proportion to their popula-
ton, while the mountain counties,
which are republican strongholds,
will send hundreds. A fund
is now being raised to MAIN
tain those of the witnesses who are
unable to pay their own expenses, and
the wives of the witnesses will be
carefully looked after. The militia
has been carefully drilled and made
ready for emergency calls, so that sew
eral hundred soldiers could be thrown
into Frankfort within two or three
hours after call is issued and these
could be largely REINFORCED within "a
hours. Governor Taylor will refuse to
give up the offices and will be backed
by the witnesses as we'll as the militia.
Goebel may have himself sworn in as
governor and he may secure manda-
muses. from the highest state courts to
compel the republicans to vacate the
Offices, but the courts authority will
not be recognized and the Offices will
be held by force of arE-s if Goebel tries
to use force in taking the offices.

Dies MONIES, Jan. 14.-The Iowa Ma
tional Guard association in annual
meeting voted that the legislature
shall be asked for no bounties for the
Spanish war soldiers. A proposal from
the legislative committee that the
Forty-ninth, Fiftieth and Fifty-second
regiments be each given bounty
equal to the amount which the state
appropriated to pay for transporting
the Fifty-frst regiment home from
San Francisco, brought up the matter.
There was lively discussion and it
was unanimously voted to ask no such
bounty, but to ask that the money be
used for the better equipment of the
guard. The guard association was re-
organized, officers elected and plan
of action adopted, of which the most
essential feature is to secure a more
perfect equipment for the guard than
it had in the past. Considerable dis
cussion was had on this point, and it
was agreed that when the militia of
the United States was called into SER
vice il ought to be armed with some
thing better than old fashioned Spring
fields with which to fight semi-savages
armed with the best modern weapons.
The association will assert all it's in
fuence to secure better equipment.
Officers were elected as follows: Pres
