A HUMAN CURIOSITY.
Dual Heads and Bodies. -Four
Arms and But Two Legs.

Near Dycusburg, on Friday
Dec. 9th, a child was born to Mr.
and Mrs. Samuel Davis. The boy,
or boys, from its waist upward,
consisted of two perfectly formed
bodies, two heads and four arms,
with but two legs. 1t was the first
born and weighed fully 10 pounds
The child expired at birth.
Medical science fails TO account
for such dual children, aud in the
case of the Sialnese twins it was
not until post rnortem had been
held that any certainty existed AS
10 their anatomy.

The school authorities of Bos-
ton are considering plan for sep
arating the white and negro pu.
pills in that city. The children of
both races have heretofore attend
ed the same schools. There is a
strong prejudice against the sys-
tenn on the part of both whites
and negroes. The negroes want
separate schools, where their chill
dren will not be treated as inferi.
ors. while the motives of the white
citizens are obvious.

ing introduced several important

making an important amendment
to tho law as to chattel mortgages,
requiring the property mortgaged
to be written instead Of printed !;
tho bill which resulted in the build
ing of the union passenger depot
in Anderson; the bill providing
that in change Of venue cases the
cost of the trial shall be borne by

He was an ardent advocate,

THE MAN FOR THE PLACE
Capt. J. NJ Patrick For Adiutant And
Inspector General.

Capt. J. NJ. Patrick has an
nounced himselt a candidate for
adiutant and inspector general.
His friends have bcen urging him
to run for somo timo but IT was
not until yesterday that he would
permit tho newspapers to an
nOunce his candidacy.
Tho announcement that Capt.
Patrick has decided to cnter tho
race for this oflico will be received
i with more than ordinary interest.
I lIo is we'll known throughout tho
State and is particularly we'll fit
ted for the position, He has been
actively connected with the,militia
service Of the State for many years.
When quite Il young man, while
living in Greenvillo, he was elect
ed captain Of tho Greenyille
Guards, and resigned that posi-
ton when moved to Anderson. He
il now captain Of the Anderson
Rifles and has cotton that COM
pany INTO such splendid shape that
1T ls recognized as ono Of tho fore
most in tho State.
But it was as commandaDt Of
cadets at tho Patrick Military In
stitutc, which was presided over by
his illustrlous father, Col. John B.
Patrick, that he was best known
and in which capacity he rendered
his best services to his State. There |
are in South Carolina hundreds ofl
young men who received their
military training under HIM, and
to every one Of them it will be a
pleasure to know that their former
commandant has offered himself
for position for which they may
vote for him. He will have the
enthuslastic support Of all the for
Nor cadets of the old p. NJ. I.
There is an especial reason why
Anderson people will feel p special
interest in his candidacy. Ander.
ION hasn't had a State officer since
Governor Orr IN 1868, and the peo-
'le Of the county feel that it is
,ime they we're beginning to have
'ome recognition. Capt. Patrick
