Tillman Scores Charlestonians

According to Charleston dispatch
going the rounds, Senator Tillman
paid off many old scores against the

business men, and in a speech tina!

ion of the city's manners and Gus.
0ns, he made nearly 200 leading citi
zens cringe under the sting of his
lash.
Senator Tillman, says the dispatch,
either forgot that he was the guest of
honor, or it made no difference with
him. For an hour he poured hot shot
into Charleston, the like of which was
never before heard. He took off the
gloves and ripped the town and its
people into fragments He jumped on
everything. He struck right and left
denounced business and social Gus
toms. ard declared that Charleston
would never be resurrected unless it
was through the efforts of the younger
generation.
Dipping into recent political history
he said he had whipped Charleston at
every stage. He intimated that hs
was getting an ovation from men who
had fought him at every stage of his
career, and in a characteristic speech
he attacked the city from every con-
ceivable point
Many Of the guests wanted to leave
but they waited, and there is general
regret that they went to the dinner
Even the friends of Senator Tillmal
admit that the TRADE will open the old
breach, and the affair." is regarded as
unfortunate.

the fruit crop in this state would be
benefited instead of injured by the
recent cold snap. The temperature
has not fallen to the danger point, and
the wind, instead OF tnreshing healthy
fruit from the trees, has merely
pruned out faulty and defective fruit
and thereby has done great service.

Inch by inch the field is contest

was only the car horse and cable IN
the towns that were threatened by
electric traction. Then the trolley
poked an inquiring tentacle ever the
city limits into the suburbs. The re-
suits were satisfactory, and swiftly
the electric lines flung their spider
flaments from town to town, until
now great sections of the country
are cobwebbed with them. The troll

The Tired Table.

OF course the table looks depressed;
It has to stand all day.
Not once may it sit down to rest
Or run about and play.
I watch It with a saddened smile;
Methinks it mutely begs
Just to lie down little while
And scratch it's weary legs.
And when a large and lavish feast
Upon It Is bestowed
It's agony Is much increased;
It groans beneath its load.
1t dare not scratch the polished floors;
1t wants to run and hop;
It's longing to go out Of doors
And try to spin its top.
o table so demure and good,
Ny heart is sad for you'll
7 wish you might choose what you Woo
And what you wooden do.
