Old Time Carving Terms.

In an old number of a magazine is
sued more than Il century ago we light
cd upon Il list of different terms used
ut tables of elegance in the days
when Queen Charlotte came as the
bride OF the young and handsome king.
From this list it would appear that
nothing in the way of game was to be
carved. The correct phrase was to
"cut up" Il turkey, to "rcar' n goose,
TO 'unlacc' Il hare or rabbit, to wing"
4 partridge or Il quail, to "allay" a
pheasant, 10 "dismcmbcr" n heron, to

MANY ACCIDENTS
TO SAME FAMILY,
Details Of che Death Of J. l.. Pitts
Ills Father Hurt while Handling
an Axe.

POPLAR SPRINGS, March 9.-This
community was shocked on hearing Of
the death OF Mr.. J. L. Pits, residing
In the Friendship section, which oc-
CURED Saturday near his home. 1t
seems that Mr.. Pitts had been to Lau.
rens that day, and ON returning had
gone to the field where his hands were
at.work, cleaning off q field. On reach
ipg the place he fund that they had
set a tree on fire and were working
nearby. he protested that there was
danger of the tree falling and to get
farther away. In the meantime, Mr..
Pitts himself, walked as he thought,
out of danger OF the tree and at
that moment the tree broke off, strik-
ing Mr.. Pitts on the head, crushing IL
In o horrible manner. He expired al
most instantly. Mr. Pitts was an en-
ergetic and Industrious man, useful to
his community in which he lived, as
was evidenced by the long cortege that
followed the body to the Friendship
cemetery, where 1t was Inferred with
hOLOES ny NlyItip 44Sukob WV. WJ vi
which he vas an active adherent.
Religious services were also held
over the body, conducted by Rev. Ray
Anderson Of Laurens. The deceased
was about SO years old and is survived
by a Borrowing wife and four small
children, who have the sympathy OF q
large circle Of relatives and friends.
Mr. w. H. Pitts, father Of the de-
ceased, living in this section, while at
work last week with an x inflicted a
severe cut on his forehead. just as he
was making a blow with the tool, 1t be-
came entangled in q wire or vine be-
hind him. The axe coming over on
his head dealt him a terrible cash. The
wound is painful, but not regarded as
serious.
Murphy, a small son of Mr.. W. E.
Pitts, after extracting the shot from a
loaded shell, was handling it carelessly
with fire and it exploded, burning his
face painfully. 1t Is not thought that
his eyes are hurt.
A small child of Mr.. aud Mrs. Will
Bolt, living near r ID n Church, also
met with a misfortune last week by
falling II the fire and sustaining some
painful burns. 1t is hoped that the
child is not burned seriously.
1t is q strange co incidence that all Of
these misfortunes occurred practically
in tho same community, the same week
aud all in the same family connestton.

Method to Recover 1t.
"If some scheme could be devised"
scid n Saltwater (Alinn) man, "by
which the sunkpn legs which fill the
beds of rivers and creeks in the log
cling sections Of this country could only
be recovered, immense fortunes would
be made. Along tho st. CroiX waters it
is estimated that logs enough are inn
bedded in the sand of river bottoms to
keep mills running for years. Under
present conditions the loss is total, for
no successful method has ever been de-
vised to effect this saving.
occasionally logs cut years ago are
forced by the washings of floods from
their sand beds and driven upon the
shores, whore the action of sun and
wind dries them out sufficiently so that
they Will float down stream, but the
percentage OF logs recovered is small,
and millions of dollars worth of prop
erty is lost beyond recovery until some
cnterprising genius invcnts II machine
or process to recover the timber.
AT saltwater logs occasionally come
to the sorting booms bearing marks in
use half a century ago, and when they
appear the old lumbermcn grow remi-
nlscent of mel who have been long
forgotten, but who were important
operators in the pioneer logging days
of Wisconsin and Minnesota.
"No possible estimate can be made
of the amount of timber thus lost, but
lumbermcn estimate that the rivers of
Wisconsin, in the value of the logs
buried in their sands, have fortunes of
millions of dollars if the logs could be
recovered. Wisconsin has been one of
the big pine states, and your Chip
pewa, Wisconsin,, st. CroiN and Me-
nominee rivers and their tributaries
contain fortunes in sunkcn timber.
"Strangc as it may appear, the value
Of the timber is not lcsscncd, even after
1t has been submerged for half or
Quartcr.o of 4 century. Efforts have been
occasionally made to recover sunken
logs. At II time Il company was or
ganizcd at saltwater to drcdgc streams
and thus recover some of the timber,
but the plan did not work with any
great degree of success, this method
being found too expensive. Some one
will come along some day with a plan,
and this immensely valuable product,
now lost, will be recovered."-MIilwau

FREAK HOUSES.

Dwellings In Which Took
the Place Of S~tairwnys.
Years ago a story was told of a naval
officer who wanted n house built to
ilease his w taste in every detail.
He drew the plans himself, placed them
In the hands of n builder and instructed
him to see that they were carried out in
every detail. Then he went to sea for
a years cruise. When he returned
home the house had been completed
with the utmost regard for the plans
and specifications left by the officer.
He was taken through the first floor
ana expressed the utmost pleasure in
everything he saw.
"Now," he said, I'VE will go upstairs
and see the second floor"
Come right out this way who're we
have n ladder" replied the builder.
The %seafaring man was astonished.
He had planned the house with the
n stairway.
The story Of the naval officer has
v had n certificate of g~enuineness
attached to 1t, but an actual case in
which n house has been built without
n stairway is OH record in Washington.
1t finally became The home Of the late
John Boyle, who was for many years
chief clerk of the navy department and
who died In 1854, leaving a large es-
tate. The house in question stood on
the site now occupied by q brewery be-
low the naval observatory. 1t was q
~pretentious old mansion, located in
what was n very stylish section during
the days of the elder John Boyle, who
came to this country in the early years
OF the nineteenth century. The record
Is not clear as to why the house was
constructed without n staircase, but
