Last Thursday i negro Of bad char
acter who escaped from Manning Jail
bv throwing ,Jailer Strange aside made
GOOD his escape to neighborhood
near Summerton where he lived, fully
armed and equipped for war, it ap-
pears. Magistrate Richbourg had COM
initted him for burglary, he having
been breaking into stores in Summer
ton at night and had confessed to vari-
Gus breakings and stealings to .]ailer
Strange, who had reduced the same
to writing. His tirstact on arriving in
the neighborhood of Summerton after
his escape from jail was to exhibit
large pistol, threatening to kill the OH
GERS and witnesses who had committed
him to jail. As soon as the magistrate
heard of his escape, on Friday night, he
set to work to apprehend him, and on
Saturday morning while the magistrate
and small posse of white and colored
men were searching the various houses
of his relations it developed that he
was in the swamp nearby. The magls-
trate then notified the sheriff to come
and bring the changing dogs to trail
the negro. The sheriff and his deputy
answered the call promptly ard were
on the scene in two hours and rendered
every assistance possible to capture the
negro, but failed as they had no dogs to
trail him in this thick underground IN
our bays. Late Saturday evening they
surrounded negro house on Mr.. E. B.
Felder's place and searched it five min
utes after the negro had escaped to the
bay nearby. The bay was surrounded
and guards stationed at various places,
but up to this writing he has not been
caught,sbut has.been heard from as still
here and will not leave until he accom-
plishes his purpose: Mr.. {: NJ. Sim,
mons with Messrs. Way and Fairy and
law in the return Of this negro to jail
and will surely capture him If an op-
portunity offers itself. If bloodhounds
were kept at the court house as pro-
vided by law this desperate would Low
be in jail. We hope our county officials
will look into this matter to avoid these
escapes. This negro has a large family
connection in this neighborhood and all
are of bad blood, and every effort should
be made to capture him.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. L. Brunson arrived
home from Glenn Springs last Thurs
day. We hope the stay at the springs
may prove of benefit to this highly es-
teemed lady.

A TROUBLESOME PLANK.

One of the principal planks in
the recently adopted platform OF
the Republican party deals with
a question of vital Importance to
the South,-the suffrage ques-
ton, which seeks to reduce the
South's strength in Congress
and the electoral college. The
Republican party claims, the
South is represented in Congress
and in the electoral college upon
a population basis, a large part
of which it has disfranchised,
and as the supreme court has
held the Southern suffrage laws
Constitutional, it is desired to
make the representation upon a
different basis, in other words to
reduce this representation to its
actual voting strength.
Of course the South is inter-
ested, and well it might be. but
should the Republicans succeed
in reducing our representation,
it can only be temporarily, be-
cause in a few years with the
present outlook for immigration,
we will get back to where we
are now, and have the advantage
of representation based upon a
white population.
The Democratic party will re-
sist any curtailment of represen-
tation, and in the coming contest
the race issue will be a promi-
nent feature. In our opinion the
Republicans are not anxious to
face such an issue, because where
they areInow enabled to hold the
negro votes in certain Northern
and Western States, they will also
drive out of their party many
votes that are as much antago-
nistic to negro suffrage, as are
the voters of the South. The
recent troubles in Indiana, Hi
nois and other States has dem
onstrated clearly that the peo-
pie of those States although Re
publican voters, are not disposed
to tolerate equality of the races,
and when the Republican spell
binders preach e''equality"do
trine to them they will leave their
old moorings and drop anchor
with the party that promises
white supremacy.

Another miscarriage Of jus
tice can be recorded to the
shame of South Carolina by the
verdict of an Aiken county jury
in acquitting Lee Green, a white
man charged with the murder of
Abram Surasky, a Jewish ped.
dler. Green shot his victim sew
eral times, and then finished
him with an ak, more revolt
ing murder has never been com
mitted in this State. The evi-
dence showed that Green's mo.
tive for the killing was robbery,
and that his victim pleaded for
his life to be spared, offering to
give his slayer everything he
had even his coat. After being
killed the body was hidden in the
woods. In pleading for his life
Surasky appealed in behalf of
his wife and little children. The
defence set up the claim that
the dead man had insulted Mrs.
Green, the wife of the accused,
and that Surasky's life was taken
in defence of Mrs. Green's honor.
The published testimony fixes
Green guilty of a diabollcal mur-
der, not done in the heat of pas
sion, but to rob a man who was
supposed to have a large sum of
money on his person, and only
had S3.05. The jury however,
accepted the wife's honor protec-
ton plea, and turned loose a red
handed murderer, but Aiken
should not have stopped with
simply acquitting Green, they
should have, and should yet, to
prove their confidence in this
verdict, see to it that Lee Green
should represent Aiken county
in the South Carolina General
Assembly. Green himself, since
he has been vindicated by an
Aiken jury, should now ask a
vindication from the people of
Aiken at large, by being candi-
date for the legislature. Green
can enter the primary in Aiken,
with the endorsement of twelve
of Aiken's good and lawful men,
this is more than many candi
dates for public favor have had to
commend them. When, oh when
will South Carolina place value
upon human life?

Justice in South Carolina is

Justice in South Carolina is
meted out differently in different
counties; in Aiken, white man
foully murdered another white
man for a large sum OF money
he was supposed to have upon
him. The jury accepted the
fellows plea that he killed to
man to defend his wife.s honor.
In Georgetown a white ulaa
stole a pig and he was convicted.
In Aiken. murder is not a serious
offence, any excuse will DO,
but in Georgetown pig-steal-
ing is, and is followed with
sure and swift punishment. We
suppose if a man stole a hog in
Aiken he would also be punished
providing his skin is black, but
if he be a white man a jury OF
his countrymen would accept any
plea he would make, unless, OF
course, the jurors saw the &C.
cused steal the hog from one OF
their own number.

 Let us be humble if we have much knowledge, for 1t only serves to better show the vastnesa of the unknown, and to compare the little we have dis covered for ourselves with the ampli- tude of that which we owe to the pains of others.
 And, above all, let us be humble if we are virtuous, since no one should be more sensible Of his defects than be whose conscience is illumined, and since he, more than any one else. should feel the need of charity toward evil doers, even of suffering in their stead

 I have no mind to suppress distinc- tions and differences, but l think that what distinguishes a man is not found in his social rank, his occupation, bis dress or his fortune, but solely in him. self. More than any other, our own age has pricked the vain bubble of purely outward greatness. To be somebody at present 1t does not suffice to wear the mantle of an emperor or a royal crown. What honor is there in wield- ing power through gold lace, a coat of arms or a ribbon? Not that visible signs are to be despised = they have their meaning and use-but on condi- tion that they cover something and not a vacuum. The moment they cease to stand for realities they become useless and dangerous. The only true distinc- tion is superior worth. If you would have social rank duly respected you must begin by being worthy of the rank that is your own; otherwise you help to bring it into hatred and con tempt It is, unhappily, too true that respect Is diminishing among us, and 1t certainly Is not from a lack of lines drawn round those who wish to be re- spected. The root of the evil Is in the mistaken idea that high station ex- empts him who holds it from observing the common obligations of life. As we rise we believe that we free ourselves from the law, forgetting that the spirit of obedience and humility should grow with our possessions and power. So it comes about that those who demand the most homage make the least effort to merit the homage they demand. This is why respect is diminishing.
 The sole distinction necessary is the wish to become better. The man who strives to be better becomes more humble, more approachable, more friendly even with those who owe him allegiance, but as he gains by being better known he loses nothing in dis tinction, and he reaps the more respect In that he has sown the less pride.

to possess, to comprehend or to create fine things. Yet there is kind of ministering beauty which may make it's way everywhere-the beauty which springs from the hands of our wives and daughters. Without it what is the most richly decorated house2 A dead dwelling place. With 1t the bar est home has life and brightness. Among the forces capable of trans forming the will and increasing happi- ness there is perhaps none in more universal use than this beauty. It knows how to shape itself by means of the crudest tools in the midst of the greatest difficulties. When the dwelling is cramped, the purse limited, the table modest woman who has the gift finds a way to make order, fitness and convenience reign in her house. She puts care and art into everything she undertakes. To do well what one has to do is not in her eyes the privilege of the rich, but the right of all. That is her aim, and she knows how to give her home a dignity and an attractiveness that the dwellings of princes, if everything is left to mer- cenaries, cannot possess.
 Thus understood life quickly shows itself rich in hidden beauties, in at fractions and satisfactions close at hand. To be oneself, to realize in ones natural place the kind of beauty which is fitting there-this is the ideal. How the mission of woman broadens and deepens in significance when it Is sum- med up in this: To put a soul into the inanimate and to give to this gracious spirit of things those subtle and win some outward manifestations to which the most bFutish of human beings is sensiblel Is not this better than to covet what one has not and to give oneself up to longings for a poor im- itation of others finery?

CHAPTER XIII.

THE EDUCATION FOR SIMPLICITY.
 THE simple life being above all
 else the product of a direction
 of mind, it Is natural that edu-
 A cation should have much to do with it. In general, but two methods of rearing children are practiced. The first is to bring them up for ourselves, the second to bring them up for them selves.
 Tn the first case the child is looked upon as a complement of the parents; he is part of their property, occupies a place among their possessions. Some times this place is the highest, espe- cially when the parents value the life of the affections. Again, where ma terial interests rule, the child holds second, third or even the last place In any case be is a nobody. While he is young he gravitates round his par ents, not only by obedience, which is right, but by the subordination of all his originality, all his being. As he grows older this subordination be- comes a veritable confiscation, extend ing to his ideas, his feelings, every thing. His minority becomes perpet- ual. Instead of slowly evot ing into independence the man advances into slavery. He is what he is permitted to be, what his fathers business, re- ngious beliefs, political opinions or aesthetic tastes require him to be- He will think, speak, act and marry ac- cording to the understanding and Him. its of the paternal absolutism. This family tyranny may be exercised by people with no strength of character. It is only necessary for them to be convinced that good order requires the child to be the property of the parents. In default of mental force, they pos sess themselves of him by other means by sighs, applications or base se- auctions. If they cannot fetter him they snare his feet in traps. But that he should live in them, through them, for them, is the only thing admissible
 Education of this sort is not the practice of families only, but also of great social organizations whose chier educational function consists in putting q strong hand on every newcomer, Tn order to fit him, in the most iron bound fashion, into existing forms. It is the attenuation, pulverization and assimilation of the individual in a so- cial body be it theocratic, communis- tic or simply bureaucratic and routi- nary. Looked at from without, like system seems the ideal of simplicity in education. Its processes, in fact, are absolutely simplistic, and if q man were not somebody. if he were only a sample of the race, this would be the perfect education. As all wild beasts, all fish and insects of the same genus and species have the same mark ings, so we should all be identical having the same tastes, the same Ian guage, the same beliefs, the same tend encies. But man is not simply a specimen of the race. and for that req son this sort of education is far from being simple in its results. Men so va.y from one another that number less methods have to be invented to suppress, stupefy and extinguish in dividual thought. And one never ar rives at it then but in part, a fact which is continually deranging everything. At each moment, by some Assure,
