FOR A BIRTHDAY PARTY.
Suggestion as TO Games, Charades
Etc.

Suggestion as TO Games, Charades,
I think If it were my birthday should
choose from among my friends a little
girl, whom should ask to come In the
morning and help me tie up with my fav-
orite colored ribbon as many bunches Of
flowers as there were little boys and girls
coming to my party. Then / should
plan with her help some of the good, old
fashioned games. / should write them
down in the order in which they should
come; and as far as L could,
should follow it. Drop the
handkerchief" is always fun, IL
1t is played just for about ten minutes.
"Menegarie'' and Squirrel and "Musi-
cal Chair" are fun; but be sure not co
play any one of them too long. This IS
a sad mistake.
l should then choose from out of my
Mother Goose" as many character as
| had guests coming, and l should gather
together the little odds and ends which
are to be used in a set of Mother Goose
charades, which should be played just be-
fore you go in to the table in the dining
room. A little girl carrying a broomstick
and wearing a pointed hat made of paper
suggests right away Mother Goose;" a
little girl with a basket of flowers sug-
gests Mistress Mary" tin horn AMI

little boy into Merry King Cole" These

each acting out his part, while the rest
of the children have merry fun guessing
These will do for suggestions. / should
go right on and plan for enough Mother
Goose" people to make each member Of

merry birthday party you might have n
just the dearest and simplest way.
1 think I should ask Mother Goose"
and "Old King Cole" to sit upon a throne
to receive the good-byes, and as each
guest came up to shake hands give them
each bunch of the flowers you and your
little friend tied up in the morning.

COLUMBIA VS.. SHAMROCK Il.
Old Yacht to Enter Race Against
New Shamrock.

New York, Sept. 5.-The yacht Co
chosen to race against the Shamrock
in defence of the Americans cup.
This decicsiou was reached today al
ter a conference lasting two hours be-
tween the members Of the challenge
committee. AL the committee were
present. Commodore Lewis Cass
Ledyard presided.
Tie discussion was exhaustive. The
performances of the two boats were
gone over Systematically and critl-
cally compared. The conclusion was
that the behavior of the Columbia was
far more consistent than that OF
the Constitution and that in, the cir
cumstances there was no other alter
native but to name her as the defender
of the cup. It was held that while
the decision might be disappointing
to the syndicate which owns the Con
stitution the committee were compel
ed to choose the Columbia, whose
races have shown none Of the erratic
form manifested by her rival.
The formal notice announcing the
selection of the Columbia was posted
at the yacht station shortly after L
O'Clock. It read as follows:
eat meeting of the committee on
challenge of the Royal Ulster Yacht
club, held on the haghsip at 1l.30 a.

Smith in SummerviIIe.

The Summerville News in the report
of the Congressional meeting in that
town has the following to say concern
ing the Sumter county candidate.
The Hon. E. D. Smith, of Sumter,
made brilliant speech which was de-
livered with fine effect. Mr.. Smith
begun by saying that he was handl-
capped, being the only farmer among
the candidates. However the absence
of stump from which to address his
audience did not seem to dlsconcert
the speaker. His remarks on various
forms of government and on legltl.
mate expansion under the terms Of
the Monroe Doctrine were admirable,
as was his denunciation of paternal-
ism. His sympathies are all on the
side of the laborer, and he did not
hesitate to say that under certain
conditions she glories in strikes. !"
The farmers of the country, he says,
feed, clothe and shoe the world and
get nothing in return He concluded
with the statement that true Demo
cracy depends on the right of the indi-
vidual to own land. Mr.. Smith re-
cieved many compliments at the con-
clusion of the speaking.

this campaign save that of standing
bv his people in the halls Of congress
should he be elected because he real
lied the difficulty of accomplishing
ANYTHING when outnumbered by the
enemy. But he would always be found
battling for the interest of his coun-
trvmen, doing all in his power for
their welfare.
Hon. E. D. Smith made a capital
speech and amused the crowd greatly
with several very funny anecdotes.
He is an easy speaker and very enter
tain1ng. The great question, he said,
was not the tariff or expansion, but
the question between capital and
labor. He devoted himself vigorously
to a discussion OF the question for half
an hour. He pleased the crowd I'M
menselv and if Maj. Howell were
not in the race Smith would be i'm
mensely pleased with the vote he
would get in Colleton.
Hon. A. F. Lever was the last speak
er. He also made favorable impress
sion. He said he was toting his own
skillet and footing his own horn"
and took occasion to denounce as un-
true certain rumors that were in cir
culation that he was in combination
with another candidate. He was for
five years Congressman Stokes prl--
vate secretary and confidential friend
and would be able to take up the work
and carry it on with the least difficulty.

The Niagara Falls Power Company
will have 10, 900 additional horse pow
er available for use in Buffalo this fall
at the close of the Pan-American eS-
position, and the indications are that
it will all be taken up in short order.
That will mean the use in round num-
bers of 10000 electrical horsepower
from the falls in Buffalo. The total
horsepower which the company ill
then be in a position to supply TO
Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Lockport and

is not sufficient to supply the demand,

ditional horse power on the market,

The Charleston Exposition.

The outlook for the Charleston ex-
position grows brighter every day.
The success of the enterprise seems
to be fully assured and we believe that
it will be even greater than its projec-
tors anticipated.
Recently commission representing
the various states and nations that
are exhibiting at the Pan-American
Exposition visited Charleston and
made thorough investigation of the
conditions and prospects of the ezposi-
tion now being prepared in that city.
The commissioners who were not
affected by sentiment but acted upon
purely business considerations, on
their return to Buffalo last week,
made a report which caused the i'm
mediate taking of 20, 600 square feet in
the Charleston buildings and the
guarantee of many exhibits which will
add immensly to the variety and gen.
eral interest of the exposition.
a number of states and nearly every
one of the West Indian and Central
American countries ,have arranged to
make handsome exhibits there.
The financial strength of the exposi-
tion. as we'll as its list of attractions,
has been increased greatly during the
past few weeks. Georgia will, OF
course, be put in evidence in way
that will be worthy of her.
We do not wonder that Charleston Is
in high hope of the complete success
of her great undertaking and we trust
that her largest expectations Will be
more than realized.

BRADsTREE7's REPORT.
The Trade Outlook is Good, Es-
peciaIly in the South.

New York, Sept. 6.-Bradstreet to
tomorrow will say
Trade advices are as rule very good.
east, west and northeast, compares
we'll with last year, and business con-
tinues to expand at the south. Spe-
cially marked features are the reports
of a large seasonable distribution,
heavy shipments and improved collec-
tions from leading western centres.
All measures of trade demand point
to the maintenance of general business
on scale not heretofore equalled for
this time of year, while the failures
though more numerous than last year,
are less hurtful than one or two
months ago, and really reflect only the
normal friction inseparable from the
conduct of business in large volume.
Industrial disturbances are not cut
ting the figure they did earlier. Prices
for the fourth successive month have
advanced, and are now well up to the
highest of the year.
The cotton trade is in an interesting
position. The actual yield in the
season just closed was 10, 3S3, 600 bales,
valued at nearly $500, 900, 600, the larg-
est value ever received for an Ameri-
can cotton crop. The latest government
report shows that on 100000 out of
1882, 600 acres planted the condition
is better than year ago, and the out
look is, therefore, for a somewhat
larger yield than last year.
For the week the failures number
169 as against 1SS last week and 154
in this week a year ago.

The utility of an inspection of illum-
mating oils has again been demon
strated in Georgia. a carload of oil
was inspected ct Cornelia and not
coming up to the standard was con-
demned and ordered to be taken out
of the State. What did the company
do about it? Not thing but just run
it on into South Carolina where we
have no law for inspection and where
they can sell any kind of oil they
please. This is the second time this
year that oil condemned in Georgia
has been dumped into South Carolina
and sold. We have no inspection law
and they can sell US what they please.

s'The arrangements being made for
the renewal of japanese immigration
into Hawaii says the Springfield Re-
publican, "show that the sugar plant
ers, after by-play of experiment with
negroes and Porto Ricans, are turning
to Oriental coolies again as the perma-
nent source of labor supply. The Japa-
nese Government is to remove the re-
strictions against the departure OF its
subjects for Hawaii, and our Govern
ment, it is understood, will not pro-
test against the landing of any Japa-
nese at Honolulu, provided that they
do not arrive there under contracts.
Thus another of those beautiful argu-
ments that were once used in behalf
of Hawaiian annexation vanishes into
the nebulous region of things not so.
The planters were to get along entirely
without Asiatic labor, and Orientalism
was to be swept away from the islands
by the lnrush of the Christian civil
ization of the West But the planters
are again down to business. and they
want the Asiatic coolie in thousands,
which settles the labor question in

transportation for Cuban merchants
who might desire to visit the Charles

could be given an object lesson in
American commercial methods by a
visit to the exposition and that the
exposition MANAGEMENT would agree to
entertain the visitors if transportation
could be furnished to them in the
same way as it was furnished to the
Cuban teachers who came to the

Life Getting Longer.

The leading life insurance compa-

have decided to issue new mortuary
tables owing to the fact that those in
existence, prepared thirty years ago,
have been found so imperfect that
they are no longer useful. 1T ap-
pears that in the time specified the
average life of an insured person has
increased about two years, and this
must be taken into account in all the
