wealthy and stingy member arose
and said that he would give one dol

plaster fell from the ceiling and hit
him on the head, whereupoa he rose
up hastily and said he had made =

A O ROOM STORY

The fight in the senate on the bill
providing for the admission to state
hood OF Oklahoma. New Mexico and
Arizona, although bitterly contested,
develops some amusing occurrences,
and occasionally what promises to
be an ill-tempered contest between
the opposing forces has q good-natured
ending. This was the case ON Tues
day evening in the senate, when Sen
ator Quay called for the ayes and noes
on the motion OF Senator Beverage
to adjourn. The motion was lost, a
majority of the senate thus express
sing its willingness to remain in cun-
tinuous session on the bill. Senator
Hale, who on the preceding day had
had a sharp tilt with Senator Quay
on his method of carrying on the
statehood fight, adopted q con-
clliatory tone, and spoke in q remin-
iscent way of various efforts that had
been made to obtain legislation by
holding continuous night sessions of
the senate. Il remember he said,
when the Wilson bill was before the
senate. that l one day came into the
senate cloak and saw the SEN
ator from Pennsylvania sitting COM
fortably in one OF the armchairs smok-
ing a cigar. l asked him what vas
going on in the senate. He replied,
i am making a speech And when
/ looked in the senate l saw that the
senator from New Hampshire was
good-naturedly spelling the senator
from Pennsylvania and was reading
a few sections of his speech for him.
while he himself was taking much
needed rest in the cloak room"
The entire senate and gallery laugh
ed heartily at Senator Hale's story,
and no n more heartily than the
senator frem Pennsylvania. And with
good humor thus brought about, Mr..
Quay kindly permitted the senate to
adjourn and relieved 1t for at least
one more day OF the bugbear. I night

Cotton Fires.

Capt. John E. Brownlee OF An treville neigh
borhood, had stored away perhaps dozen
bales Of cotton under a woodshed on bis
plantation to save something for rainy day.
He slept the sleep Of the Just, and feared no
evil. But when he least expected 1t cotton
was discovered to be on fire last week. The
loss was considerable.
And one day last week, we had little cot.
ton fire OF Cur own on the public square. A
wagon was driven up, with two bales on IT
for sale. Cotton buyers assembled around
1t and sampled 1t. and when buyer and seller
were dreaming of the profits thereon, one OF
the les was instantly covered with flame.
Willing hands brought buckets OF water, and
poured II on the cotton until stream ran
from 1t down the square. A great mul
titude assembled to see 1t, and In a little
while busy hands were pick ing Off the black
ened lint And then when the excitement
subsided, the next most interesting thing
was to find the origh of the fire.
It seems that Mr.. T. P. Quarles, an expert
enced cotton buyer. who is perfectly cogni.
zapt OF the inf1ammable nature of cotton.

These gentlemen are not allowed a mono.
poly on cotton fires. Not TO be outdone by
the fiery element in other quarters, the
machinery at Longs Ginnery started up one
morning recently on it's own account. 1t bid
fair TO make good headway but somebody
ran up with buckets OF water and set dam.
per on It's progress. About that time the fire
company ran down, turned on the hose and
completely broke up the undertaking. A few
pounds OF scorched cotton and about hall
bale of wet cotton was the damage.

Recipe for Picking Meat.

Recipe-To every 100 pounds of meat
take II pounds of salt, 2 l-2 ounces of
saltpeter, half pound sal soda and l-2
pounds of sugar. Boil and skim all
impurities, and when cold pour on meat
we'll weighted down. This will keep
until the first of May and no pickeI
will keep longer.
But here comes the core of picking
meat it is not original with me, some
old Georgia farmer with stroke of
genius, devised the plan. 1t is this
the meat must be dipped in boiling
ssltpeter water piece by piece, so as to
copstrict the pores and prevent the
juices of the meat from oozing out In
the pickel, and this pickel must be
thrown away as it will be filled with
oil and pieces af bone that will hurt
the pickel.
Saltpeter is cheap and anyone can
afford to throw away the amount.
When packing the meat in barrels you
can sprinkel literally with black pep
per, which will be an appetiser.
So many people have asked me for
recipe for picking meat that / want
you to publish the same. and / think
you will confer favor on your readers
also. In conclusion wish to say the
RECIPE IS ABSOLUTELY SURE.

Three of the Brightest Men in the
State. .,.. .

Three OF the Brightest Men In the
State. .,..
The three new South Carolinians,
Aiken, Croft and Legare, fare about
alike other new menin committee as
signments, and what they will get in
the future will be determined by the
rank they take. Legare is already re-
cogniZed as a bright young man who
has future, and Wyatt Aiken's strong
strong personality, hard sense and gen.
eral capacity for making friends prom
ises to land him away to the front as a
member Of the House. He can't get
there in one term, but if his coustitu-
ents give him chance it is predicted
by old members Of the House that he
will take high rank: He is the kind Cf
fellow to make warm friends in the
House, and ia enough of politician to
know the art Of reciprocity in House
deals.
Legare is a man of similar character
istics, and these two fellows, with
young Lever, will make a trio worth
watching. 1t is the brightest trip of
young fellows the State has had here
in } ears, and all they need is to be
given an opportunity to get accustomed
10 their places before they are taken
away. The really valuable man in
Congress is not the man who makes q
speech at a minutes notice and spouts
a lot of words. It is the man who can
do the most work for his constituents
on the quiet or any other way. who is
familiar with Washington and the
ways of government departments, and
who knows just where to 60 for 8
thing. Many mau comes here from
district who doesn't stay here long
enough to know where to 60 for the
most Insignificant document.
In this respect Wyatt Aiken is of
great value to his district. Ee was
here with his father years ago and
knows Washington pretty well. What
he did not learn then he will soon
pick up. ,4 T. -
South Carolina ought to learn what
the New England States have long ago
discovered is, send good man to
Congress and let him stay here. The
longer he stays the more valuable be
will become. He makes affiliations
and deals with strong men of the House
that help him in future legislation
