What An Opponent Says.

The Spartanburg Herald is
an eminently fair newspaper.
While it opposes Gov. McSwee-
ney and supports Col. Hoyt it
scorns to do the farmer an in
justice. In a recent editorial
the Herald says: "We very
much prefer the election of Col.
Hoyt to any of the candidates
running, because we believe
that prohibition is better for the
State than the dispensary as it is
run at present. We believe
that a better plan than either
can be evolved, which would
come under the dispensary re-
striction as laid down in the
Constitution; but the present
system of State ownership of
the saloon business cannot be
defended. 1t is wrong in prin-
ciple and demoralizing in prac-
tice. While we very much pre-
fer candidate who utterly re-
pudiates the dispensary as at
present conducted, we are net
blind to the fact that Gov. Nc
Sweeney has refused to use the
Octopus as a political ma
chine for his own advancement.
but he has shown clearly that it
was his desire and purpose to
enforce the. law with as little
friction and bloodshed as posi-
BILE. His methods have not only
brought about a decrease in the
illicit sales, but have tended to
make the law more tolerable,
and common justice suggests
that it is not right for him to be
condemned when he has done
better than those who have gone
before him. We believe that
the Hon. Bunky Patterson,
Senator Tillman and the Colum-
bia State, if put on oath would
be compelled to testify that the
dispensary law in South Carolina
is far better enforced today than
at any time since it was enacted
not excepting the time when the
whole militia of the State was
brought into service"

McKinley Prosperity.

The failures for May, as COM
piled from Dun's Review, num-
ber 947, as compared with 5Sl
last year and 917 in the ''calamit-
Gus" year of 1896. Thenumber
for May, 1900, is the largest
ever known in that month since
the records have been kept. The
records for the two succeeding
months have been equally signi-
ficant, as indicating the full
meaning of the Mckinley pros
perity. President Gary of the
Federal Steel Trust, who GER
tainly has no. motive for mis-
representing the facts on that
side, said in a recent statement
of the iron and steel industry:
1.-The demand is not equal to the
production, and the latter should
be curtailed until conditions
change. Production is being
curtalled at a rate extremely
disastrous to the interests of
workingmen. And thisin spite
of the pressure which, it is
everywhere agreed, is being
brought to bear upon the trust
managers by their friends, Han
na and Mckinley, to keep their
works open if possible until af-
ter the election. The trust men
are good Hanna Republicans
and would be glad to comply
with this campaign request,
but there is a limit even to the
powers of a trust which has fat
tened upon the abnormal profits
of a short season of artificial
prosperity. The trust men are
doing the best they can, but
the truth cannot be concealed
that the bottom is out of the
Mckinley prosperity, and the
end is near at hand.

ONE MILLION For 4 PAINTING:
Fabulous Price Said 80 Have Been
OHered for Beautiful Work
OF Titan.

The preposterous report that some
one had offered 100000, or 81, 100000,
for Titian's celebrated painting Of ''sa-
cred, and Profane Love-" in the Bor-
ghese collection at Rome, is due. in all
probability, to the universal hunger
for astonishing people, although it may
have some color of possibility to the
imagination of kindergarten hnan-
ciers, says the Boston Transcript. In
sensate prices have been paid for
Raphaels, that in the National gallery
especially, which came from the Marl-
borough collection; also for the works
OF other old masters, but never any
such incredible price as this. Yet it
would be hard matter to set the ex-
act limit Of value in the case of a sale
Of Titan, more particularly such an
example as the absurdly misnamed
Sacred and Profane Love-" II there
exists in the world a picture worth
s., 600. who would be bod enough
to deny the right OF Titan, the poten-
tate of painters, to be the author Of
that work? AS to the picture known
bv the title Of Sacred and Profane
Love- title which Titan did not give
1t. and which has needlessly puzzled
many commentators-it is now gener-
ally considered simply as fanciful or
romantic composition.
But Franz WickoR, German critic,
has evolved theory, which has good
deal to recommend it, that this picture
represents an incident in the seventh
book of the "Argonautica' Of Falerius
Flaccus, the Latin poet, where it is re-
lated that Medea, the enchantress,
daughter Of Aectes, king Of Colchis, un-
willing to yield to her love for the
Greek Jason, Is visited by Venus, who
pleads for the lover and endeavors to
persuade Medea to follow her into the
wood where Jason IS waiting. Titan
has represented this scene as taking
place in the open air; the dawn is just
breaking and rosy streaks appear on
the horizon. A young woman richly
dressed is seated on one side of foun-
tain, on the edge Of which she has
placed costly casket. Her right hand
is in her lap and holds bunch OF
magic herbs. Deeply moved, she gazes
fxedly before her, lending ear the
while to the persuasive voice Of another
woman seated near. The form of this
woman, around which futters red
mantle, is Of a marvellous. beauty.
She rests her right hand upon the foun-
tain's edge and with her left holds on
high a vase from which issues light
smoke. Between the two women the
god Of love is splashing in the water
with his chubby little hands.
Mr.. Wickof maintains that in the
beautiful nude figure Venus is easily
recognizable, even when her son is not
there to indicate her presence. The
woman to whom she spoke and who,
though unwilling to yield blindly, still
feels herself drawn by an irresistible
power, is Medea, who betrayed the
king, her father, and followed Jason,
the stranger and enemy Of ber people.

a HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.
4 Fast Train Crashes Into a
Full Omnibus.

Eleven persons were instantly killed
aud Il others, several Gwhom will die,
were seriously injured Sunday night in
grade crossing accident three miles
east Of SlatiDston, Pa, by a passenger
train on the Lehigh and New England
railroad crashing into an omnibus con-
tanning 25 persons. All the dead and
iujurned were in the omnibus, and but
.hree escaped uninjured. At least
three fourths Of the occupants Of the
omnibus we're ladies. The accident
occurred about 5 clock. The omnibus,
driven by man named Peters, was
returning to Slatington from funeral
the occupants had been attending at
Cherrysville. The coach belonged to
Henry Bittner Of Slatington, and the
dead and injured were nearly all rela-
tives OF Sophia Schoeffner, at whose
obsequies they had been present. The
train was special and consisted Of an
engine and one car. At the poirt at
which the collision occurred there is a
sharp curve in the road and the omni-
bus came along at a good rate of speed,
the occupants unconscious of any i'm
pending danger. AS the bus swung
arouod the curve the engine and car
came 10 sight. 1t was too late to stop
either the omnibus or the train and as
the driver of the former whipped up
the four horses to cross the track ahead
of the train, the latter crashed into its
middle. The occupants were thrown
in all directions, bruised aud bleeding.
The II dead were killed outright
Physicians and a special train were sent
for and the injured were taken to South
Bethlehem. No watchman is employed
to warn teams or pedestrians of any ap-
preaching train and those living in the
vicinity state that it is impossible to
hear an al proaching train. A peculiar
feature Of the accident was that the
horses drawing the bus escaped unhurt.
The way of the newspaper man or
the transgressor is hard. The Swains-
boro Wiregrass Blade says: Its a
great pleasure to run country newspa-
per-its so nice to be aole to do things
for accommodation, you might publish
free notices of births. deaths, marriages,
etc, to the amount of a hundred dollars
or more and then send man bill for

curse you out. +"

BEAUTIES OF DIVORCE LAW.
Paws His Wife to Let Him Marry An

4 dispatch from Chicago says mag

man Leeds gif, to his bride, was not
the most costly part Of his second mar
riage. Leeds formerly lived in Chica-
90, is very wealthy and one Of the priu-
cipsl tioplste manufacturers of this
country.
To obtain freedom from his former
wife to marry Mamie May Stewart
WoTthington, he is said to have given
Jeanette Irene Leeds 81 600 900 IN
bonds aad stocks. The former Mrs.
Leeds knew that her husband was en-
gagged to the dashing divorcee Of Cleve-
laud, but refused his entreaties that he
be freed from the VOWS he assumed Il
years ago in little Indiana town.
He threatened to go into coart him
self for divorce. aud Mrs. Leeds
smiled aud said: go, but he did not

with his sife Why they separated is
secret that both have kept. Friends
guessed it, but Mrs. Leeds said moth
ing. She was absorbed in the educa-
ton of her boy, Rudolph, now Il years
old.
The first Mrs. Leeds was approached
by her husband month ago and asked
10 n.me q cash consideration to release
him She said, the story goes, 81 ,000,-
0G0 was 90: To, much for man to pay
who wanted to marry woman half his
age. Leeds seemed to think his sec.
ond love was rated at high figure. He
tried to bear the price. Mrs, Leeds
first declined to 60 into the dickerlng
business.
The chief of the tin plate barons, it is
alleged, at length sent $1,000, 0Ol to
his former wife, who was living at the
Virginia hotel wuiting for the accept
ance that she knew would come. The
day after the transfer of all the bonds
aud stocks had been made she sought
George A. Trude and told him she
wanted divorce from Leeds.
What about the slimoDy" in
quired the attorney, as he seemed to
set down memoranda Of the points in
volved in the bill.
That matter has all been settled,
she said. ''All want of you is to get
me divorce. Mr.. Leeds wants it
quick, and you cannot proceed to rap
idly. A fairer and a younger woman
is waiting for him.
August l, at Il o'clock in the morn
ing, the bill for divorce was fled. Fif-
teen minutes later Judge Bishop lis
tened to the testimony Of middle ased
woman, qrietly dressed. She said her
husband lad deserted her FIVE years ago.
She kaes If no cause for his conduct.
The usual denial had been filed by
Leeds attorney, but no defense was
made il court. Half an hour after the
fling of the bill the decree was granted.
That evening Mrs. Leeds the first left
Chicago for the east. She is going to
Europe with her boy.

Trade and the Flag.

The New York World says the
official statement of the exports
from the Philippines during the
colendar year 1899 gives the
total at 19,256,O91. Of this the
hemp exports were valued at
nearly SS,00O,000 and raw sugar
about the same-only one-tenth
of which came the United States.
The remainder was made up of
copra, leaf tobacco and cigars.
The exports by countries, in
cluding gold and silver, show:
To China, $780, ,49S; the United
States, s+,040,255; England, 49,
701, 1868; Japan, 1885, 1896, and
Spain, S1,-170,23l. So that
China, which has no flag" in
the Philippines, got nearly $3,-
100000 more of the small trade
than we did, and England
almost as much. We receive at
New York on any steamer day
more imports from Europe than
come to US in a whole year from
our wonderful new possessions.
The entire value of the COM
merce for a year does not equal
the cost of the occupation and
war a week.

A Big War Coming.

When the approaching crisis in China
shall have arrived very grave questions
will arise. Can the powers agree either
to maintain the empire intact, under a
reformed administration, or to divide
it up in manner satisfactory to all
concerned? Will Russia abandon her
pretensions? Will Japan let pass the
opportunity to acquire Korea? Posi-
bly, diplomacy, which has many re-
sources, may stave of the apprehended
conflict, but the conditions are evil
IDENTITY such as to threaten war of
