street continued south from First
avenue northeast. All interested are
willing to deed necessary land but
there Is one owner who wishes to be
paid, and cond emnation proceed inqs
may be necessary The matter was
laid over till next meeting.
Inc property owners on the West
side do not appear much interested in
the sewer proposition made by the
Northern Pacific, and az consequence
20 action will be taken by the council.
There are serious objections to the
city making large expenditures Of this
nature unless those benefited are to
pay the cost. Sewers and street i'm
provements should be paid for by
those getting the benefit, and the new
charter is constructed on that basis.

of his building near the Broadway
bridge, which will have to be raised
owing to the paving grade. BE was
told to secure affidavits of the engi.
neer giving the original grade, and if
the city is to blame for the building
being put below grade, it may have
to share the cost of raising it.

ment of Miss Sadie Fuller, Mrs. G.

Sick
Headache

When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous sys-
tenn, centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom-
ach causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and
prolonged attacks weaken the
brain, resulting in loss Of
memory, Inflammation, epi-
lepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritatcd,
aching condition by taking
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by sooth-
ing, Strengthening and reliev-
ing the tension upon the nerves
NOT by paralyzing them, as
do most headache remedies.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills do
not contain opium, morphine,
chloral cocaine or similar drugs.
sick headache Is hereditary in my
family. My father suffered q great
deal, and for many years have had
spells that were so severe that I was
unable to attend to my business affairs
for day or so at a time. During a
very severe attack Of headache, I took
DIR: Miles Anti-Pain Pills and they
relieved me almost Immediately. Since
then take them when feel the spell

Cordele, Ga. Aug. I4.-parties

ports Of a shooting affary which
occurred near Oakfcld. lS miles
southwest Of Cordelc, this morn
ing in which two negroes were
killed outright and three fatally
wounded by a woodsridcr named
Malfs who is woodman for the

the woodman had words with
several negroes in their settlement
Saturday night. In consequence
seven uf them waylaid him as he
started on his rounds today.
About s o'clock, while three
miles east Of Oakfcld, he was
confronted by til e negroes
who were advancing on him, with
"clippers," clubs and other wea-
pons. Mails drew heavy pis-
tol and opened fire. Two negroes
droppe1 dead instantly from his
unerring aim and three others fell
to the groundmortally wounded
BY the time Malfs could reload
his pistol the other two had fled.
The angry woodman pursued
them but did not again get
glimpse of them.
The coroner's jury is holding an
inquest this afternoon. 1t is not
likely that Malfs will be arrest

Crops Of The State.

The following is the weather..
crop report for the past week as
compiled by Section Director Bau-
cr:
The mean temperature for the
week ending Monday, August
I4th, was slightly above normal
over the eastern half and slightly
below over the western. The CO.
trcmes were maximum Of Io3
degrees at Blackville on the Sth,
and minimum Of 64 degrees at
Greenville on the 9th. There was
less than the usual amount ofsun-
shine. High winds, damaging to
corn and cotton, prevailed during
the middle Of the week in the
western counties. Bottom lands
were flooded along the upper por-
tons Of the Saluda, Broad, Water
rec and Great Pee Dee rivers and
their tributaries, and considerable
corn destroyed.
The long drought was broken
over the entire state. The rainfall
was heaviest in the central coun-
ties where it amounted, in places,
to over six inches, and was least
in Beaufort and Georgetown coun-
ties, where it was generally less
than half an inch. There was rain
nearly every day and the ground
is now thoroughly saturated. The
rain was needed and in places was
beneficial, but in others it caused
deterioration in crops, especially
cotton, and interfered with farm
work, especially haying and pull
ing fodder. Nearly all crops have
been laid by, and further cultiva-
tien is now impracticable.
With very few exceptions, the
reports on cotton indicate rapid
deterioration due to excessive
shedding. rust and the plants turn
ing yellow. These conditions pre-
vail over practically the entire state,
but are most marked on sandy
lands. In many places growth has
stopped, while in few the plants
are making new growth. Bolls
are opening rapidly in the south
central counties and considerable
has been picked. The excessive
heat Of the 5th, 9th, 9TH and 9Th
was very damaging on cotton.
There is a general improvement
in the condition Of late corn due
to the ample moisture (which came
opportunely. Tobacco curing is
nearly finished. Peas, sweet po-
tatoes and all varieties Of cane are
doing well. The frequent rains
interfered with preparations 70,
fall truck crops. Rice made fine
progress. Pastures improved rap
idly and again afford fine grazing
Iurnips were sown extensively.
Late fruits, especially apples
and peaches, arc rotting badly.

A new Tbeorv OF sleep.

An interesting and novel theory OF
sleep has recently been put forward by
DIR. Claparede, a French scientist, who
holds that sleep is a positive function
or an instinct designed to arrest func-
tioning DR.. Claparede makes the as
sertion that we sleep not because we
are intoxicated or exhausted, but in or
der to avoid such conditions. Not only
are there various kinds and degrees Of
sleep, but II does not always follow ex-
haustion. Furthermore. 1t is well known
that sleep Is not proportional to the
degree Of exhaustion, and IT may be
either total or partial. In measuring
the profoundness Of 81 ep various con-
ditlons are encountered which are not
susceptible of explanation on the toxic
theory, but which agree perfectly with
the hypothesis that it is a positive
nervous function. The definition OF
sleep, according TO this new theory, is
a reaction produced by various excl
tantu and is an inhibition which mani
tests itself subjectively by lack Of in
terest liz exterior things. Harper's

CHOICE. MISCELLANY
How WOOD Is coIored.

The colored wood industry began in
Italy IN the seventeenth century, and
wood coloring works came TO Sweden
Turing the Thirty Years war. but un-
il quite recently the method was used
n a very small scale.
Now, by the method invented by the
Austrian Joseph Phister In 1901, the
wood is colored when fresh. The tree
is cut while the sap Is in action, and
In the coloring process the dye is fore
cd under heavy pressure into the wood
and replaces the sap. The manufactur-
ers can color TO a length OF thirteen
feet.
Birch, beech, alder. maple. elm and
Eastwood are the best kinds OF wood
for the purpose. Oak is not good on
account OF the tannic acid. and in
spruce and pine the color cannot be
made uniform.
The wood looks best when polished.
The prices are yet comparatively high
on account of the waste, but improve
ments may follow. 1t can be used in
furniture, panels and doors; also in
outside work in order TO avoid paint
ing. 1t is especially good for fitting
ships and tram cars.--Report Of United
States Consul Bergh, Gothenburg, Swe-
den
