AS TO Rural DelIysry.

Some time since it was announced
in dispatch from Washington that
it was the intention Of the poatnfziaa
department. to discontinue o great
many rural routes, because they did
not pay, butS were established at the
instance Of Congressr.en who were
looking after their political fortunes.
It was further said that South Caro-.
liaa woala be among the States which
would suffer more than the rest, the
impasss;on being that Congressmen
from this State have been very ac-
lively working in their owR interests.
All rural routes in this State are
moro or less under the control Of the
Columbia postmaster, he receiving
all the funds direct for them. and
he say that he has received no in
structions to discontinue any routes
IN this State, and he does not know
that any Of them will be discontinued.
These routes are especially numerous
in the Piedmont section, and their
patrons have been much concerned
over their contemplated discoptinu-
anoe, and many inquiries have be,n
received about them. The best that
Postmaster Ensor can say nosg is that
he officially knows ncthiug about any
contemplated. discontinuance. - Co.

UncaIiay Mexican Plant.

The Institute Medico, Of Mexico
City, says the Mexican Herald, will
send to the Worlds Fair an exhibit Of
about fifty medicinal plants OF the
country and the products derived
therefrom. Accompanying the ex-
hibit will be complete explanation
as to the place where the plants are
found, the procedure for converting
them into medical products and the
ailUents wlioh they are destined to
cure. Included in the exhibit will be
plant Of marvellous qualities. It
grows wild and abundantly in the
state of Michoacan. The Indians
claim that whenever they enter a
wood or place whore this plant grows,
its aroma makes them lose their way
and they are unable to return TO the;r
homes or to reech their destination
until they cease to smell the plant
The statement is said to have been
fully confirmed number Of times by
learned people. .ss
The Institute is going to make q
scientific study of its physiological ef-
feet, and an analysis Of it's properties.
A dalegatc has been sent TO Miohoa..
can to obtain specimen Of the plant.
It bas been further added that per-.
son wearing q branch Of this plant in
his bustonhole, will often be lost in
his native city, but the latter state: ),
ment has not been confirmed. This.
plant will be an interesting exhibis at
the fair if it is sent in large quantities
and keeps its qualities in. foreign
and distant land, the police OF St.
Louis will have many yisitors to guide
during the exposition.

IN MEMORY OF WOUNDED. KNEE.
10,
Sioux Indians Erect MonumeiSs Where
Wallace Fell.

The Sioux Indianu have erected O
monument to their fathers, mothers,
brothers and sisters killed at Wound
ed Knee, South Dakota, and following
tho idea adopted by the whites on the
plain Of the Little Big Horn where
Custer and his command were wiped
out, they called this place the Big
Foot Massacre. Big Foot was the
chief in command at the time, md
about 500 Of his followers were killed
The monument which is a handsome
marble shaft was dedicated during the
last of May, and fully 5000 Sioux In
dians took in the ceremonies. The
inscription on the monument is as fol-
lows:
This monument is erected by sur
viving relatives and other Ogallala
and Cheyenne river Sioux Indians in
memory of the Chief Big Fees maeaa-
ere, December 80, 1890, Col. Forsythe
in command Of the United States
troops. Big Foot was a great chief OF
tho Sioux Indians. He often said !:
I will stand in peace till my last day
comes. He did good and brave deeds
for the white man and for the red
man. Many women and children
who knew no wrong died, here"
THE STORY OF WOUNDED KNEE.
1t was the last stand Of the red race
against the white, the fight Of dying
race against young and more vigor-
Gus; People fighting for their homes
and their territory, as they supposed,
this battle in which fell those braves
to whom the monument was raised.
Their patriotism had been reused
TO the highest pitch by the willy old
chief, Ta-TanKa I-Yo-Ton-Ka (Sit-
ting BulD, who was to the .norther
Indians what GERONIMO was to the
southwestern tribes, But Sitting
Bull was more to be feared tnai Gero-
nimo, because of his long familiarity
with the white men and their ways.
In addition TO rousing their patriot
ism, Sitting Bull had anointed each
"bravo" with medicine" making
them invulnerable to the bullets from
the white mans pistol. And every
Indian of that band thoroughly be-
lieved this.
Toaccomplish this Sitting Bull orig
mated the s'ghost OF Messiad dance
which soon spread through the Sioux
nation like fire over the western prai-
rie. This dance was only prelimi-
nary to being anointed with the med
ioine, and was q mixture Of tho war
aud squaw dance, except that the
dancers ciroled around, "a tall pole on
which was hung the skin containing
the medicine. The eyes OF the dane.
ers were continuously fixed on this
spot, their eyes thrown upward. It
| is said the dancers, in time, became
actually hypnotized and fell on the
ground in o cataleptio fit. While in
| this state they had visions Of what
was to happen to the white men who
opposed tho Indian when 4 Aanointed

MUST INTEREST THE PEOPLE.

Colonel j. H. Brigham, assistant
secretary of agriculture at Washing
ton, in a recent speech at good roads
convention said something that every
body ought to read Among other
things he said:
81 see no reason why the general
Government should not appropriate a
certain sum of money to be expended
in this great work. OF course the
states. counties and local communities
should be expected to cooperate. A
little aid from the general government
would be q wonderful encouragement to
all the people.
81 hear a number of speakers here
saving that we must stir up congress.
Now. [ want to impress you with the
idea that we Unjust first educate the
people. When the people are in favor
of national aid in building good roads
congressman will be in favor of it, and
not until then. They are not going
ahead of the people.
81 see no reason why the general
government should not reach out It's
strong arm and help the people OF this
country get better means OF communl-
cation.
In these remarks Colonel Brigham
has sounded the keynote of good
roads campaign, whether it be nation
al or local 10 it's scope. Wherever
good roads are built the people must
first be aroused and educated. It's not
enough to get a convention of profess
sional road reformers together and
make speeches and pass resolutions.
The object in view should be to inter
est practical and progressive men in
all walks of life, to arouse the inditfer-
ent, to convince the DIRECTORS, and to
create a wave of popular enthusiasm
for better roads. Until this is done in.
a community no important results
will be accomplished in good road
building.

SENATOR TILIMAN's TRERUTE

Senator Tillman of South Carolina
delivered his famous lecture on the
race question in Savannah Friday
night, and in closing his address paid
a lofty tribute to the majesty and pur-
ity of southern womanhOod. He said;
awhile the southern woman stands
on her high pedestal of purity, with
her lofty ideals, the southern white
man will surround her on all sides to
protect and guard her. And when the
black fend, after assaulting her, shall
say. with folded arms, Hang me &C.
cording to law we will answer ,No,
we will hang you wherever we can get
you.'"
That is the sentiment OF every true
southerner, but not all of them have
the courage to admit it.
