AS two men from Lockhart
mills were on their way to Ian
caster Monday, they got pretty
full of "fust" x and tried to
take Capt. King, his train and
the passengers But one of the
passengers happened to be
Sheriff Cornwell who command
ed peace and quiet, whereupon
the jollys got off the train and
gathered rocks for the Sheriff.
With his shot gun drawn on
them he ordered them to drop
the rocks. One of them obeyed
promptly but the other refused,
whereupon the Sheriff pulled
trigger and sprinkled the fel
lows legs with birdshot, and he
then lodged them both in the
Richburg calaboose till the
evening train when he took them
on to Chester and lodged them
in Jail.

Encouraged by the splendid
success of over 5000 graduates
of the Ga Ala. Bus. College, many
of our young friends will enter
that institution at Macon, Ga,
right after Christmas. The low
rates, personal instruction, thor
ough qualification of pupils and
prompt placing OF all graduates,
have given that institution deci-
dedly the largest patronage in
the south, and brought it over
1000 more calls for graduates
this year than it could furnish.

SiIkworms Tint Die.

The silkworm story is Il twice told
tale. Everybody knows how the green.
wriggling creature, fed fat on mulber-
ry leaves, spins himself a shin
ing shroud, out of which he will come
with wings-that is, if he comes II at
all. For the most part he does not.
The coceons meant for reeling are kiln
dried until the dormant life goes out
entirely. The largest and fairest are
saved for seed. Out Of them come
the moths that lay eggs for Il new gen
Grafton. From 300 to 600 is the usual
number.
The eggs, called grain, are subject to
a fungus that does not destroy their
vitality, but makes worms hatched
from them unhealthy. They toll not,
neither do they spin. Instead they die,
weak and languid, to the disgust of the
growers and the depletion of their
pockets.

ed in Richland county. ! am not and
| do not think the others are, tied

lican senator. 1t is our only preroga-
tive. Might just as well make the re-
suit unanimous. The same might ap-
ply as to the speakefship."

THE RED BONES.


Have you ever heard OF a class of
people called red b~ones.'" said a
South Carolina man to II reporter the
other evening. They are the most pc
culiar people in the United States. No
one living absolutely knows the race
from which they sprang or from
whence the original settlers came They
live very nearly on the boundary line
between South Carolina and Georgia,
In the northwestern part of the first
named state. They are very clannish,
mix very little with people not of their
race and in a manner are quite thrifty.
In slavery times they owned slaves.
visited the several summer resorts of
the southern mountains and in n way
put on quite a little style. While l
have nothing but %supposition to guide
me, l am of the opinion that they are
descendants of the Basques IF southern
France. They do not lack courage, for
a company of them served in Hamp-
tons legion during the civil war and
bore themselves bravely at the first
Manassas. Their skin is of a swarthy
red, resembling that of the Indian. but
ut that point all resemblance ceases,
except it be that they are very hot of
temper. l have often wondered why
the ethnologists of this country have
not studied these people. Surely a
monograph on them would be highly in
teresting. --Washington Star.

A Critical Moment.

A man may he as cecil as an iciclc

The total absence of bitter strife
that marks the period preliminary to
the opening of the eighth legislative
assembly is as c~ommendable as it is
noticeable. Our people are prosperous
and contented. No differences have
been exaggerated into fancied griev-
ances. The contest for the organiza-
ton of the house is earnest. but UNI
exciting. 1t is a gentleman's combat.
The high standing and character of
h chief contestants for the speaker
ship-Messrs. Baker and Young-and
the high order of intelligence plainly
visible on the countenances Of the
members, is sufficient guaranty of a
peaceful solution. and the absence of
even a whisper of scandal rebounds
to the credit of the citizenship of
North Dakota.

Danger In Raw Salads.

ut has generally been conceded"
says the Sanitary Inspector, that
there is quite an element Of danger in
the consumption of raw salad plants
which have been grown upon soil that
is possibly infected with disease germs
which may be present as the result of
the application of stable to
the soil. All such salad plants should
be carefully washed with an album
dance of water. A writer in POliclini-
co, an Italian journal, concludes as
the result of his experiments that such
salad plants may be effectually ster-
iliZed, SO far as disease germs are con-
cerned, by immersing them a half an
hour in a 3 per CEN solution of tartaric
acid"

The return of Hon. H. c. Hans
brough to the United States senate
from North Dakota seems assured.
The states asset in his thirteen years
experience in Washington is not to be
lost. Mr.. Hansbrough, although rep
resenting a young western state, has
taken position with the nations most
influential statesmen at the seat of
government. He occupies positions
on the senate committees and enjoys
acquaintance and influence in the
various departments of government
that no new senator could hope to
acquire in less time than the period
covered by Senator Hansbrough's ca
reer in the house and senate. He is
a safe man. If he has made mistakes
he has profited by them. No new
man could make fewer and stand bet
ter with his colleagues. Mr.. Hans
brOugh is chairman of the committee
on public lands, a member of the com
mittee on finance and also of the dis
trict committee that practically gov
ems the city of Washington. A nan
who does not stand we'll cannot occu-
py such positions as these. Hon. M.
N. johnson, had he remained in the
lower house, would also have been an
influential factor in that body. He
could have been returned to the house
had he not aspired to the senate. The
state lost his experience and his op-
portunity to serve the state. 1t is
well that the precedent is not to be
followed. The influential states are
those who return their members of
congress year after year. Let us
profit by the experience of the past.
Praise of H%ansbrough is no condem-
nation of other candidates. 1t is a
laudable ambition to aspire to these
high Offices of responsibility and trust.
Communities should not be condemned
because of loyalty to local men of
worth and integrity, but in the selec-
ton of the Washington delegation our
vision should take in a broader range
than local pride.
