In the Paddle Wheel.

Mr. Stanhope Hall, author of
Twenty Years at Sea-" was not
much more than boy when he had
the following curious and terrifying
adventure. the recollection OF which
haunted him all his life, says an eN-
change The ship on which he was
making his first voyage was loading
cotton in Mobile bay and the captain
had sent him in a small boat to get
some newspapers from a big side
wheel steamer which lay near by.
In trying to bring the boat up to
the steamer, he says. upset myself
and went down, I could not swim
and | struggled in hopeless terror.
When | came to the surface I found
myself in the brackets of great
wheel; they were green with river
moss and slippery as ice. but l re-
gained my breath.
As l held on painting from my
plunge a thrill of horror ran through
me- The wheel had slowly began to
revolve. In agony | shouted, but
in that great wheel box my voice
was nothing. Slowly the wheel
turned, carrying me upward. When
I reached the top I should be ground
to pieces; or if by any chance I es-
capped that fate l should be drown
ed when l was again drawn under the
wheel into the fearful suction.
Again and again shouted. Finally
as was nearing the top, little trap
door opened and some one looked in
to the box. I opened my mouth to
call once more. but my throat was
paralyzed: for moment | could not
utter note
The trap door was just closing.
when with one mighty effort. my
voice came back and I screamed. The
man opened the trap again. saw me,
sprang upon the wheel and snatched
me into saftey. ! was a heavy
weight in his arms as he carried me
to the deck. for I tainted dead away.

COUGH IN HIS PRIME.
How the Famous Temperance Advo-
safe Confused His Opponents.

John B. Cough, the famous advo-
cate Of temperance, went to Great
Britain in compliance with numer-
Gus demands from press and public
When he appeared at Oxford the COL
lege students undertook to hiss him
off the stage, so determined were
they that temperance should not be
preached there. Afr enduring their
Kisses and cat-calls for about ten min
utes, he startled them all by saying:
Il can whip everyone of you, one at
a time"
This statement was cheered, and
then the young men began calling
one OF their chums to go up on the
stage Soon Cough saw a young
giant coming toward him. AS soon
as he was in the center of the stage
Cough shouted: This is to be an
intellectual battle and not physical
one. Go on with your speech"
This suited the college men, and
they began calling on their big fel-
low for a speech. He responded by
quoting the epistle of Timothy, in
which Paul recommended "a little
wine for thy stomach's sake" and
from this he deduced an argument in
favor of the use OF wine. When he
had finished, Cough faced the au-
dience and said: This is not an ar
gument but farce. Hero is younA
English giant, weighing almost two
hundred pounds, who has never been
sick in his lie who eats five pounds
OF meat every day, and who can
knock down a bullock with a blow
OF his fist, standing here and talking
about the need OF wine for his
stomach's sake. You'll have to send
me another man.
The boys cheered Cough. and then
yelled for another man--thls time
a senior and their ablest debater.
He went to the platform and called
attention to the fact that Jesus turned
water into wine and advocated the
use OF it. He delivered speech
which met with the approval of his
fellow-coIesians. and they cheered
cheered him repeatedly. When he
had finished. Cough said:
That is just the kind Of argument
that | came here tc deliver, and was
delivering when you interrupted me.
You may drink all the wine you call,
hold. provided it is made out Of
water. as that wine was
Cheer after cheer greeted Cough,
and he was permitted to go on with
his lecture. He said afterward that
they gave him greater applause than
he had ever received from an audi
encc OF young men.

THE HAMPTON MONUMENT.
Sculptor Ruchstuhl's Preliminary
Model Approved By the Com
mission-The Inscriptions.

Columbia, S. c.. November TO-
Mr.. F. Wellington Ruchstuhl, the
talented American sculptor who was
selected to make the equestrian statue
of Wade Hampton, met with the
commission on Tuesday and it was
agreed that the work should be push
ed along the lines suggested by Mr..
Ruchstuhl in his preliminary model
The entire commission was present,
Senator c. S. Mccall of Marlboro,
chairman, Senator J. Q. Marshall of
Richland, COL Altamont Moses of
Sumter, Hon. B. A. Morgan of
Greenville and Hon. F. M. Seabrook
of Charleston.
The contract was made agreeable
to all parties on the assurance of Mr..
Ruchstuhl that his model is intended
merely to give a general suggestion
as to the features. The horse upon
which Gen. Hampton's figure is
mounted in the model was admired
very much by the members of the
comission and Gen. Hampton's pos
ture in the saddle was approved. Mr..
Rushstuhl assured the commission
that the features would be made sat
isfactory or there will be no charge
for the entire monument.
The site on the capitol grounds
might cause the statue to be dwarfed
in appearance, but at the intersection
of Main and Laurel streets it would
present most imposing appearance.
The only objection could come from
the street railway company and this
might be fixed by city ordinances SO
that the cars could 60 around the
monument Or might turn down Bland
ing street instead OF Laurel.
Col. Moses said that if Columbia
should not care for the monument
Sumter would be glad to get it and
Mr. Seabrook said the same thing
for Charleston If it should prove to
be desirable to erect the statue away
from the state capitol in order that
neither might detract from the general
appearance of the other. it is thought
that there will be no trouble to get
a desirable place in the city.
Presuming that the monument will
be built on the state house grounds,
the site will probably be near the
Washington statue and facing Ger
vais street. Such being the case, the
! inscription will be as follows:
East Side-"Governor of South
Carolina, 1876-1S7o. United States
Senator, 1S7o-1So5."
North Side-"Born March IS, 1913.
(Died April II, 1902"
On the shield just below will be the
last words uttered: my people,
[white and black-God bless them all"
South Side-"Erected by Citizens
of This State, 1906"
West Side-"Lieutenant General
Confederate States Army"
On the eight shields on the western
and eastern sides will be placed the
eight most prominent battles in which
he was engaged. as follows:
First Manassas, Brandy Station,
Gettysburg. Trevilion, Sappony
church, Burgess Mill and Bentonville.

commission.
Mr.. Scully stated that he received
letter stating that the street committee
had not done their duty in having side
walks laid in certain places in the city
and brought the matter up stating that
the writer OF the communication was
evidently not reliably informed with
relation to the matter and brought to
the councils attention the fact that the
people OF Lewiston were generally COM
plying with the provisions OF the city
and that many of the sidewalks in the
down town district were now under
course OF construction.
Engineer Maxon stated to the coun-
Gil that Mrs. Damas refused to give a

enue. Mr.. Maxon stated Mrs. Damas
would not consider any other PROPOSE
tion but the sale of the entire lot which
she asked $4,000 for. 1t was concluded
to begin condemnation proceedings at
an early date.
A resolution was introduced for the
paving and graveling OF East Main
street between the court house and
Twentieth street.

the council in relation to the franchise
asked for by Judson Spofford and stat
ed that as far as possible they had
changed the ordinance in order to COM
ply as far as possible with the recon-
mendations made by the street commit
tee. Mr. Smith stated that they have

a new ordinance agreeing with the
committee with the exception that they
do not comply with the provisions

cember 81. 1905 as asked by the COM
