MEMORIAL EXERCISES.

1t is time honored custom of the
fraternity of the Weodmen of the
W orld that one day of each year be
set apart as memorial day, on which
all members of the order, together with
their families, repair to the cemetery
and there decorated the graves and do
honor to the memory of the deceased
sovereigns. Accordingly on yesterday
the camp at this place, in conformity
to this custom, assembled at their hall,
where flowers were prepared and all
other preparations necessary made,
after which they proceeded to the city
cemetery Rev. E. j. Currie, pastor
of the Presbyterian church, made a
short but interesting talk, and then
the decoration of the graves was, be-
gun. The rites continued from about
8 O'Clock until late in the afternoon,
and all present appreciated to the full
est the observance of this beautiful
custom.

HARD FOR THE WOMEN,

precOcious in her childhood, and
now that she has achieved certain
fame a number of odd episodes of
her early life are being narrated.
According to one of these the
little girl said to her mother one day /:
Mamma, if get married, will my
husband be man with whisker
and who smokes like all the men
see?''
Yes, my DEAR" the mother
answered.
"And if don't get married, will /
be an OLD maid like Miss Brown"

The little girl brooded for a mo-

sad, resigned voice:
Mamma, It's hard world for us
women, isn't it?"-Kansas City

"REMINISCENCES OF GROVER.

1t was in 1882 that the stalwarts
and the featherheads were face to face
in the Republican State Convention
of the Empire States, writes Savoy
ard President Arthur had alien
ated Conkling without conciliating
Blaine, and here he was debating the
nomination of his Secretary of the
Treasury for governor of New York.
In moment of inspiration the dem
ocrats nominated Grover Cleveland,
and his majority was nearly 200, 900
votes. AS governor Mr.. Cleveland
was what he had been as mayor, and
what he was to be as president. With
in month and week he vetoed
eight important bills, and one of
those vetoes was a political audacity,
Jacksonian in it's intrepidity. The
legislature passed a bill making 5
cents the uniform fare on the New
York City elevated roads, and it was
unquestionably very popular measure
in the democratic gibraltar of Man
haitian island; but the governor saw
in it breach of faith, and despite
the advice and warning of friends,
he vetoed the bill and faced the storm.
A majority of the democrats in the
two houses of congress repudiated the
party platform. Nothing was DEM
ocratic that Jerry" Simpson did not
believe in, and nothing was so demo
cratic as coarse abuse of Grover Cleve :
land. Only the other day Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Knox got judg
ment in the merger cases. of the
great Northwest. That island that
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Harmon pillow.
ed, and it cropped. The republican
party is making great ado about what
Roosevelt and his attorney general
have done, and proclaiming that it is
a settlement of the whole trust bust
ness, or nigh about it; but the demo
Gratis were too angry to give Cleve,
land any credit for setting pattern
in the trust busting business for his
successors to follow, and the repub.
licans are not candid enough to give
Mr.. Cleveland credit for saving the
country from financial anarchy, and
for that matter, they are not at al
disposed to give the gold standard &
particle of credit for the restoration
of prosperity.

MILLS CRUMBLE BEFORE
THE ONSLAUGHT or WATERS.
TorrentiaI Rainstorm Wrecks Big Cotton
Mills in South Carolina. Destroying
100000 Worth of Property.
Many Operators Drowned

Spartanburg, S. c., June 6.-Be-
Tore the waters of mighty food Pa
colet, S. c., has been swept from the
map and the great cotton mills OF
Spartanbnrg and Clifton, are COM
pletely wiped out by the storm.
The shadow of the storm came over
SDartanbprg last night. 1t gathered
force until the proportions of a. giant
cloudburst were reached, when@the
downpour from the clouds swept away
the dam, which in turn settled into
one vast swirling stream, which reared
throughout the valley where the
mills are situated. At this hour the
waters roared above houses and
homes where yesterday the spindle and
the loom were at work and thous-
and laborers were busy.
PROPERTY LOSS $4,000, 900.
1t is estimated at this no ur that the
probrety loss will reach So, 900, 600.
At Pacolet the following damages
have been reported:
Mill No. l has been washed COM
pletely away
Mill No. 2 is destroyed. The
dams of the three mills are swept
away and the waters rush unchecked
through the wide gap thus opened.
The warehouse of mill No. l, with
its total stock of goods and cotton,
was swept away, while the hotel, the
leading churches and almost every
building in the little city, has been
destroyed.
Mill No. Sat Pacolet has also been
destroyed and Clifton mills, No. / and
Glendale at Clifton, are reported
totally ruined. Wire communications
with that section is interrupted and

details are meager.
Victor M. Montgomery is the
owner both of the Pacolet Mills at
Spartanburg and those at New Hol-
land, Ga, which were SO seriously
crippled by the tornado near Gaines
/ vile last Monday.
LOSS OF LIFE UNKNOWN.
Up to the present hour it has been
impossible TO ascertain the loss of life
Six bodies have already been seen
drifting down the stream and it is
possible that many workers in the
mills of Clifton and Pacolet have
gone down before the current. and
are now buried beneath the avalanche
of water.
Pacolet and Clifton are situated in
the defiles of two valleys, between
lofty ranges of hills towering on
either side. Most of the homes of
the workmen are located in the valley
with the mills in which they are
laborers.
MANY HOUSES DESTROYED.
Following the storm, a heavy gale
arose which swept along the path of
the cloudburst adding terror to the
fearful havoc already wrought.
The scene of devastation is almost
complete. The southern trains are all
tied up and the bridges leading in
across the streams and valleys are
down. the steel bridge at Arlington.
several miles from Greenville, and
the trestle at Duncans is washed
away.
Many houses along the route have
been destroyed and all trains are at
standstill. The river here is the
highest in fourteen years.
