A Deserved Rebuke.

The Aiken correspondent OF 1he
News and Courier says when Benjamin
Buford, the white man found guilty
of manslaughter in killing the negro,
Larry Blackmore, was presented be-
fore Judge Pu-dy for sentence, he was
asked by his honor if he had anything
to say why sentence of the court
should not be passed upon him. Buford
replied: Nothing your honor, and
held up the lapel Of his coat, on which
was pinned the emblem Of the Masonic
Fraternity. lie had previously given
a sign, which Judge Purdy, being a
Mason. did no5 fail to recognize. The
mans object was evident and Judge
Purdy strenly said: That badge can
do you no good here. You are not ut
to wear it. Throw it away. You
have violated all that is good and
noble that emblem represents, and you
are no brother of mine. The sentence
of the court is that you shall serve
twelve years in the state penitentiary
at hard labor. You can thank your
counsel for saving your neck.

halling from Goldville, Ala, drove

Young Fipcher said he had the per-
mission of the girls parents as well as

interfered with his happiness. NO one
could be found who would tie the
knot, and to make matters worse, the
would-be groom found himself devoid
of .unds. A purse was made up for
the pair and they drove into Harris
county hoping to find some one to
otSciate at their wedding.

a HO.1l TIME.
Grover Cleveland Charged With Din
ing With Negro Man.

There was red hot debate in the
house on Monday, During which MIR.
Scott asked Mr.. Gilbert if he did not
know that negro dined at the White
House during President C!eveland'S
first administration, to which Mr..
Gilbert replied that the Democrats
were not particularly claiming MI.
Cleveland, and that he was not first
class Democrat.
Mr.. Scott then said that c. Il. j..
Taylor, negro from Georgia, was
brought to Washington and was
taken to the White House when Ar.
Cleveland invited him to dine with
him, which invitation be said, was
accepted.
Mr.. Scott drew a contrast between
Washington and Tay lor, saying the
former was man Of recognized aoil-
ity and had been the guest OF distln-
guished people at hone and abroad,
including Queen Victoria, and declar-
ed that the later had rothing to COM
mend him save the claim that be car
ried The Democratic negro vote in his
pocket. He said further that Taylor
had oeen appointed to position in
Washington. And by Cleveland, "
suggested a voice on the Republican
side.
Continuing, Mr.. Gilbert said that
in the Spanish war there were Gener-
al Miles, commanding general OF the
army; Admiral Dewey vt Manila, Ad-
miral Schley, Generals, Lee, Wheeler
and Bell, all Of whom were Demo
Gratis. On the other side be said there
was member Of the Republican cab
met accused OF sending embalmed beef
to the soldiers. Then he said,
there was Republican horse doctor
sent to Cuba who was accused OF be-.
friending the gamblers and lawbreak-
ers."
He referred to the conviction OF
Rathbone and Neely and alluded to
General Funston, who, be charged,
had violated the rules OF civilized war
fare in wearing the uniform OF an
enemy in the capture OF Aguinaldo.
He next referred to General Davis,
"who,'' be said, sold rice and other
provisions to starving natives at enor-
nous profits"
The Republicans had promised to
destroy trusts, declared Mr.. Gilbert,
but they now had bill in the senate
making lawful all reasonable trusts
and repeating the Imprisonment
clause Of the Sherman law as to crimi-
nails"
Mr.. Dalzell (Pa.) discussing Cana
dian reciprocity, said be had been un-
able to find, after exhaustive research,
single, solitary argument which
would justify the negotiation OF a re-
ciprocity treaty between the United
States and Canada.
Mr.. Williams Miss }, responding to
Mr.. Dalzell, asked the majority why
they did pot pass the Kassoa treaties
which, be said, represented Mckinley
reciprocity.

State says a big cooking main was in
terrupted Thursday by Sheriff J. D.
Gilreath, acting under instructions
from Gov. Hayward, and there was
great disappointment in the crowd
numbering $50 who had come from

viaits the war Department and
Shoots Dowa Two Soldiers.
At Washington armed with a 38-
calibre revolver, VIM. J. OBrien,
alias Wm. Duffy, an insane discharged
soldier Thursday entered the war de-
partment and going to room 227 in
the raail and record division, shot
Robert J. Manning, messenger, and
Arthur Wicker, clerk. Miss Emma
Saxton, another clerk, barely missed
being shot through the head. The
injury to Manning is on the right side
lust above the kidneys and is regarded
as dangerous. Wicker was shot in
the LETT arm above the elbow. Before
the maniac could FIRE third time he
was oyerpowered by JamesJ. Dawson,
a messenger. It required the COM
bined strength OF half dozen men to
finally subdue the man. Prominent
among them was Lieut.. Gen. Adna r.
Chafee, chiet-of-staf. The lunatic
still held the smoking weapon In his
hand when Gen. Chafee noticed it
and with bis left hand took 5he wea-
Don from him and also the papers in
his pocket. Majs. Kean and Ireland,
Of the surgeon generals staff, were
hastily sent for and gave first aid to
the Injured men before they were
taken to the Emergency hospital.
O'Brien or Duffy in talking to
Charles Brandt, the chief Of the dlVi'
sion, expressed dissatisfaction with
his discharge papers. Then without
a word OF warning he drew the pistol
from bis pocket and aimed it directly
at Brandt's head. Brandt ducked and
the bullet entered the arm Of Wicker.
BE then turned the weapon on Miss
Sa1ton and fred. She, too, lodged
and the bullet struck Manning.
O'Brien was taken to the police
station, it requiring four men to get
him out Of the building. O'Brien
was admitted to St. Elizabeth's asy.
lum in 1893. He later was paroleo
but returned in 1897. he served in
the Sixth cavalry and Third artillery

The Turkish government has resol1-

Black sea fleet from passing through
the Dardanells, and fight will prob
ably occur should such an attempt be
made. The defenses along the straits
have been strengthened and mines
have been laid. An office has also
been appointed especially to supervise
defensive measures. The reason Tor
Turkeys bold action, it is learned, is
that strong representations have been
made by the powers against such a

PROTsCTION OF BIRDS.
1t " Guild in Large Measure Solve the
Boil Weevil Problem.

Boil Weevil Problem.
In all this talk about expenditures
for helping the farmers in the cotton
belt to kill the boil Weevil-govern-
men, help chat, we believe, is never
extended to northern farmers when
their crops IRE menaced-it is strange
that not one congressman has hit upon
the cause O. the trouble. The weevil
multiplies because the birds that
would other wise consume it are being
killed of. Here is proposition to
spend large sums OF federal money 10
help the n en- who have been killing
their best friends. Last year the raVa-
ges of the btll weevil in Texas amount
ed to s25, 100000. Did the gains OF
the compensate for that: Will the
profits Of II the feather workers IN
the world amend for the loss to be In
flicted on 1he cotton growers in our
southern tier, if the weevil increases
his pasturage9 If so, and the whole
cotton belt suffers as Texas has suf-
fered, it is estimated that the loss will
equal a quarter Of a billion annually.
The man who kills the bird that
has been eating the grubs and beetles
in his orchards and plantations, be-
cause be can convert the birds skin
into merchandise worth few cents,
brings upon himself the means OF fall
ure. and deserves that failure when 1t
co mes, for the wearings be has recelV-
ed have been plentiful. The women,
who are responsible for the enormous
slaughter CT our songsters: because
they wanted their dead bodies to wear
in hats, are realizing the necessity
for reform in this matter, and among
the thinking members Of the sex the
fashion of bird wearing has gone out.
There are, however, thousands OF tne
ignorant and i'll bred who advertise
their vulgarity by the wearing OF dead
animals upon their clothing, and so
long as the want exists there will be
found men base enough to supply it,
though the cost is high one. Lake
