The Grindstone Burst.
to the State.

Special to the State.
Batesburg, June 5.-An unsual
and fatal accident occurred here this
morning. ". 3. Jackson, a young
man from Winnsboro, was grinding
some tools at a planning mill, the grind
stone belted to the engine and revolv-
ing rapidly. Suddenly the stone
burst and one large piece struck Mr..
Jackson in the face. He was knocked
into insensibility and died an hour
afterwards. The sad state of sfairs
is heightened by the fact that he
leaves an invalid wife and two small
children.

Must Take the Oath.

Virginia, like South Caroline, has
adopted new State constitution by
which the negro is disfranchised by
the requirement of an educational
and property qualification to exercise
the elective franchise. All the Off
cials of that State are required to take
the oath of allegiance to the new con-
stitution by July 20 or vacate their
Offices. It is safe to say there will
be no vacating as the Office holder
has digestion that will enable him
to swallow anything from a tin can
to an oath that is repugnant to his
conscience and at variance with his
political convictions. We have some
of the same specimens in this State.

DIPLOMATS AT GARDEN PARTY
Social Function Mt the Spanish Lee
ration ~ Washington Has
Unique Features.

Diplomatic and official society
turned ont in force to attend the gar
den party at the Spanish legation the
either night.
The old garden. surrounded by a
high wall over which vines grow in
TrUrUytTTrr. WITS mUTc SUIT gNyer by
the addition of bunting in yellow and
red. and brilliant hued umbrellas, un,
der which refreshments and small
wares were sold. The booths, presid
ed over 10y young women, were can
opied with dogwood blossoms.
Miss Edith Root. who turned tobac-
conist for the occasion, has as sign
the typical wooden Indian painted in
new and gaudy colors. Over the
bunting back of her stand were to-
bacco signs and posters. Miss Root
proved that at least one member of
the cabinet family is not down on
trusts and the $500 worth of tobacco
given her by the tobacco trust for
sale made one of the hits of the aft.
ernoon. The young diplomats were
poor in money, but rich in pipes, CT
CARS, cigarettes and tobacco when
they left the garden party.
Another feature was the restaurant
over the stable where were sold ices
and refreshing drinks.
Among the society women who c0n-
tributed to the success of the gar
den party by lending their personal
assistance were Baroness Hengelmul-
ler Mrs. Letter, Miss Richard Town
send, Mrs. Crackanthorpe. Nine. De-
margerie. Mrs. Corbin. Mrs. Henry
May. Countess Cassini. Miss Patten.
Miss Audrey Pauncefote, Miss New
lands and Miss Wetmore. A number
of the young diplomats joined in
making the affair a gay one, and al
together n prettier garden party was
never given in Washington.

tOhrNAlT Or BUCHANAN.
New OIL Painting of the Former Pres
ident to DiSpIaee Old Picture
at White House.

A new portrait of President Blu
chanan has just been hung in the
green room at the white house, and
the old portrait removed. 1t is the
gift of Mrs. Harriet Lane johnson,
the niece of President Buchanan, who
did the honors of the white house
during portion of her uncIe's adj
ministration. Ii was painted by Will
liam Chase. of New York. The old
picture Of President Buchanan was
thought to be a good one at the time
of its purchase by the government,
but with time the pigments became
discolored, destroying the quality of
the portrait.
Mrs. johnson noticed this in her re-
cent visits to the white house and be-
came So much impressed With the
change in the portrait that she OBJ
tanned the consent of President
Roosevelt TO replace the old picture
with Il new one.' She carefully got
together all the wood cuts, engrav-
ings. colored prints, MINIATURES ana
daguerreotypes made when Buchan-
an was president and gave these to
Mr.. Chase. The result is composite
portrait that is thought by Mrs.
Johnson and others who were closely
connected with President Buchanan
to he an excellent likeness of the
president rs well as valuable por-
trait from an artistic standpoint.
Mr., Andrews, the painter of the por-
trait which has been removed, is still
alive and several of his portraits are
hung in Washington. There seems to
be something in the atmosphere of
the white house which is not good
for oil portraits, for many of those
owned by the government have be-
come discolored with smoke and have
lost their medium tones as we'll as be-
ing married by the paint cracking.
