APPEALING TO TllLMaN.
Frantic Efforts Being Made to Get the
Senator to Help the Weak Men,
But He Declines to Respond.

Since the primary last week
frantic appeals have been made
to Senator Tillman By panicky
candidates. They wish to be
saved from defeat If it can be
possibly done. They are now
willing 10 make any pledges Of
loyalty and support to Tillman.
But the senator is just a little too
assute, He has been in politics
too long to risk his popularity by
attempting at the last moment to
overcome a tremendous lead.
Then, it is doubtful if the senator
really cares to 20 to the rescue.
He may fear that his friends:
made too powerful. will attemp,
to undermine his castle.
Then, again, so far as the guber-
material contest is concerned, It
is credi,abIy reported that the
senator weeks ago saw how the
wind WAS blowing and picked
Hayward as the winner.
The betting men are offering
big odds on the leader in this
rae. A lad of 18, 600 votes has
never been overcome in the his
tory of South Carolina primaries
and it probably never will.

INSANITY EXPERTS INSANE.

"Out in Seattle" said Philadelphia
physician who returned from there
recently, they are wrought up over
the fact that an alienist, or student of
insanity, has himself become insane.
They regard that as singular coin
cidence. But it is not, as a matter of
fact, singular at all. It is an occur
renee only too common. The father
OF Gustave Flaubert, the French nov
elist, was an alienist and died insane.
There are hundred other such cases,
and I know in this city three or four
alienists who are queer, and who will
undoubtedly, some day, go quite out
of their minds. These facts, you
might think, prove that insanity, like
diphtheria or the smallpox, is con-
tagious. 1t is not quite so bad as that,
however. The truth of the matter is
that the physician who has strong
inclination toward the study of in
sanity must possess a peculiar mind
a certain sensitive, delicate, slightly
morbid mind. His mind, receiving
daily for years impressions that are
strange and horrible, becomes, in the
end, sometimes, itself diseased. I
don't know what is the percentage of
alienists who have gone mad, but l
fancy that it must be large"

But something fingers of remem-
bered grace
A touch, a tone-the beauty of your
face,
And waits of dark locks clustering
DER your brow.
Fore heaven, it's something in this
world of strife,
To find this color coming from the
clodl
To know there is one woman in this
life
Who knows a violet is the breath Of
God.
Who reaps rare roses from dim wales
of rest,
From all the terror of the world
apart,
And while the red thorn bruises her
dear breast,
Hides it within the cIoisters of her
heart
Give me the violets and the lilies
white;
The lilies, with their languor still
and deep!
Give me the dews that make the
daisies white,
Give me the poppies that are fain Of
sleep.
Give me the dreams! . And let me
think the skies
Arched in great blue, or darkening
from above,
In all their gloom-in all their mys-
teries-
Hold no name dearer than the name
of Love!

Der in the series, he wishes causes a
switch in the central exchange to

the next number narrows the selection
to certain number of contacts in the

the trunk lines that are busy till it
comes to one not in use, so that the

said that she has anywhere, except
perhaps in the last-named direction,
attained the complete freedom which

main outlets into Europe, the Baltic

her extreme northern ports have dis
advantages which no political changes
can remove. For the carrying on of
the maritime commerce, which she re-
CARDS as indispensable to her economic

very unfavorably situated, while her

war, is even worse The union of her

more justice by the present emperor

There is very little the woman OF
today eats for which she has not her
special fork or spoon, and there are
all sorts and kinds of forks and
| spoons for serving everything, from
pie to piccalilli. They are all useful
and make pretty and servicahle
presents. For individual use the
special pieces are not essential-an
ordinary spoon will answer for most
purposes, The soup spoon should
have a round instead of an oblong
bowl, the bouillon spoon is the same
shape, but smaller; the individual
chocolate spoon the same shape ana
smaller STILL The egg spoon is one
OF the most necessary of the in
dividual spoons, being small and short
of handle, with an oval bowl, but
broad and round at the end, and a.
large spoon will not answer the pur-
pose. The ice cream spoon is
trife larger and also broad at thu
for eating cream the ice cream fork is
preferable, being shaped like the
spoon but having the end of the
bowl separated into three broac
prongs.
Servers are useful, one might al

for instance, has a long, slender
handle and three slender spreading
prongs slightly hooked. These are
excellent for. manipulating the lettuce
as they hold it securely witho IL

a narrow, square, oblong bowl, with
rather long handle, and slips easily
in and out of the horseradish bottle.

TOO MUCH RAIN.
Corn Suffering but Tobacco Plants
Look Well.

The Wisconsin weekly crop bulletin
for July 1 says the continued cool, wet
weather has been unfavorable for
corn and interfered materially with
the harvesting of clover. Some
farmers made an attempt at haying
but very little was secured in good
condition. Wheat in some localities
is ready for harvesting but the ground
is very soft. Warm weather is needed
for corn and for the ripening of grain.
The average temperature for the
week was slightly below that of the
proceeding week, the entire week
being exceptionally cool and seriously
retarded the advancement of corn and
the ripening of small grains. Killing
frosts occurred in some of the north
ern counties during the early part of
the week and in a few exposed
localities the damage was consider
able. Light frosts were reported from
some sections in the central counties,
but no material damage occurred.
The rains were frequent and gen
orally heavy in the northern section
and seriously retarded the cultivation
of corn One the 25th a heavy rail-
storm passed over the central ana
southern portions of the state, ac-
companied by high winds which
caused grain to lodge badly. The
ground is generally wet and very soft.
The cool weather during the week
was detrimental to corn, which is be
coming yellow, especially on low land.
Considerable cultivating was done
during the early part of the week III
the central and southern counties, es-
pecially on high ground. Corn on low
stand poor. The condition of this
crop has declined considerably during
the week.
Rye is ripening rapidly and wheat
is turning yellow. The heads are re-
markedly we'll developed and straw
heavy The high winds of the 25tn
caused considerable lodging, but no
great damage and the outlook for
heavy crops is exceptionally good
Oats and barley are maturing rapidly
the growth Of straw is remark ably
heavy, except in the northern section.
where the continued rains retarded
growth. Lodging is frequent, but
with warm weather little or no
damage w. result.
Considerable clover was cut during
the week but the weather has not been
favorable for curing and some loss re-
suited. Hay is generally reported a
heavy crop in all sections of the
state. Pastures are in excellent con
dition. The early varieties are gen
orally in bloom Late paintings have
attained good stand and the plants
appear o be thrifty. Some damage
occurred in the northern and central
counties by the frosts during the
early part of the week.
Tobacco planting is nearly com.
pleted. The plants are of good
stand and appear strong and thrifty.
Warm weather is needed for rapid
growth. Apple trees are badly
blighted and the outlook is not en-
couraging. Strawberries are only d
fair crop. Cherries, currents ana
blackberries are light crops ana
rather inferior in quality.
