STRUCK A cow; MAY DIE
Strange Cause of Blood Poison in Case
of Mercer County Man.

Danger that turks in the most trivial
mishap is wildly illustrated in the
case of Walter Reed, who lives near
Eliza, just over the line in Mercer
county. About a week ago while driv-
ing a COW he struck the animal with a
stick. The wood splintered and a por-
ton cut his lip. Now blood poison has
set in and the patient is in a critical

DID NOT WRITE IN BOOK
Family Reports That Frank StapIeton
Did Not Hint at Suicide.

With reference to the article that
appeared in The Argus last evening
about the note book of Frank Staple
ton being found under the bridge with
hints at suicide in it, a communication
comes from his home which purports
to give the facts in the case.
1t is said that the young man lost
his note book. but had not done any of
the writing in it that was referred to
and which led to the investigation and
the turning over to the police of the
book. This is laid to an enemy or
someone with mischievous design. 1t
is further stated that he is only 20
years of age and is not married; that
he has good home. and has no cause
for any such action.

Gave Seed for Missions.

Union, August THAT was an
unique and novel plan adopted by
the rector of the Episcopal church of
Union last spring to get children in
terested in missions. The rector was
anxious that the children, as well as
the grown people of his parish raise
funds for the cause of missions, but
how to get the children interested in
this work has always been problem
with pastors. Rev. Mr.. Shannon.
house, however, seems to have solved
the problem, for his plan has proved
splendid success.
Early in the spring the rector gave
each child quantity of sun flower
seed, instructing them how to plant
and cultivate the growing plants,
and telling them that when they
matured he would buy the seed and
pay them 25 cents per pound, half of
the proceeds received by each child
to be given to missions. The crop
of seeds is now coming in at lively
rate. The rector offered prize for
the largest specimen of the flower
raised. One little lad who raised a
flower measuring II inches in dame
ter and weighing nearly six pounds
received the prize. 1t is said the
sun flower seed is valuable for seve-
raj purposes.

Judge Prisce OF = cniid's Clothing.

The Greenville Herald of recent
date prints the following: "Judge
Prince is original and he speaks his
mind very frankly at all times. A
woman with one-year old child was
in court. The child was dressed in
white, but on account of its obstrep-
erousness ii was plainly visible to the
court as well as the members of the
bar and spectators that the child was
over dressed, having on heavy wool
skirts. The youngster became so
boisterous that the attorney who was
conducting the case of the woman,
stopped in his argument and asked
the mother to take child into one of
the ante rooms, which she did. AS
she carried the child out Of the ante
rooms, Judge Prince, who had stood
the yells of the child until forbear-
ance had doubtless ceased to be a
virtue with him, said very gently to
the mother: eff you would remove
about half that child's clothing,
madam, it would doubtless stop fret
ting. [ think it's too hot"

Rough on Comptroller General Jones.

The Greenville News makes
spirited and pointed reply to Comp.
troller Jones's statement that he had
known for four years that there was
something wrong in Greenville
county and had tried to secure an
investigation, but had failed. The
News says:
"There is no use for Comptroller
General Jones to tear his shirt about
the rotten financial condition of
Greenville after the investigating
committee has brought the facts to
light, and especially when it is known
that Mr.. Jones went before the legis-
lative committee, at Columbia last
winter, and endeavored to defeat the
Mauldin bill. In dispatch pub
lished yesterday it was said that
three years ago the Comptroller
General reported that things in
Greenville were not in proper shape.
We know that to be the case to day,
but it is nevertheless true that the
State officer did not show it. AS q
matter of fact, A. w. Jones, Comp
troller General Of South Carolina,
gave certificate last summer en-
dorsing and recommending Speegle,
which was published in the news
papers as paid advertisement and
sent broadcast in hand bills. If Mr..
Jones had reason to suspect that the
supervisors official acts were open
to suspicion, it does seem strange
that he should have given him an
unqualified endorsement, showing
his fitness. The reason why the
Comptroller General was so anxious
to investigate one branch of the
county government is not above po-
litical criticism. Aside from all that,
however, when he saw that Senator
Mauldin was determined to investi-
gate matters in his home county, and
when he had the support of good
element in the Legislature, Comp
troller Jones appeared before the
committee, as stated, in opposition
to the measure. He had his own
ideas, perhaps, about what was the
best, but is any sane man going to
believe that when the officials in Co.
lumbia failed for three or four years
to get on to the graft that the evil
dence of guilt would have been laid
bare without the help of Avery Pat
toms committee? Of course not.
Mr.. Jones left the committee room
in fit of anger, but the Mauldin
bill received favorable report and
was promptly enacted. SO, in view
of all these things, it is hardly nee
essary for Mr.. Jones to worry him
self, and if there is any deeper
graft the committee, and not the
Comptroller General, will find it.
Moreover, if Mr.. Jones knew all
about the conditions it is passing
strange that he should have urged
the citizens of Greenville county to
re-elect Speegle."

Railroad Through the Sea.

One of the greatest pieces of rail
way building ever contemplated i
planned by Henry NJ. Flagler. He pun
poses to extend his road from IL
southern terminal, Miami, Fla, 1S
miles to Key West.
For at least one-fifth of the way i
will be practically a roadbed throug'
the ocean. Key Largo and Long Is
land will permit a long stretch O
dry track, but an enormous amount o
bridge and trestle work will be re
CURED. 1t is estimated that the wori
will require several years and will
rank among the most expensive
pieces of railroad engineering in tn
world.
From the terminal at Key West j
is proposed to operate a line of hug
ferry-boats to Havana, e%ighty-fiv'
miles further south. Freight trans viii
be carried across the sea there in tn
same manner that they are transport
ed from New York to Jersey City.

Veterans in Glad Reunion.

Two veterans of the civil war, who
rendered most distinguished service
at the battle of Port Hudson back in
the COS, met for the first time since
that fight in Boston, recently, when
Col. Ormand f. Minis of Boston and
Capt. Newton H. Chittenden OF Santa
Barbara, Cal, exchanged greetings.
Both belonged to that famous bri-
gade composed of the Fourth Wiscon-
sin, Sixth Michigan, Twenty-frst lndi-
ma, Eighth New Hampshire and
Minis battery of the Second Massa-
chusetts, and were brought into close
touch for the first time at Warren
ton, Miss, where Chittenden, then
captain of a Wisconsin company, was
saved from capture by the timely and
well-directed firing of Minis battery.
Capt. C%hittenden with only nine
men was fighting more than 100 Con
federates. He received a severe wound
in the side, and both he and his men
would have been taken had not the
battery turned loose on the enemy
when it did.

The Anvil Bird of Brazil.

At dusk, in the wilds of the gloomy
Brazilian forests, it is strange to hear
the clink of a hammer on an anvil.
You might imagine that you were ap-
preaching some settlement, and the
picture of the ruddy glow of the forge
might come up before your eyes.
But If your guide were a native ne
would tell you that the sound was
made by a campanero, as it is called.
although to foreigners it is known as
the anvil bird.
This bird is a little larger than a
thrush. The plumage is perfectly
white; the eyes are of a pale grey
color, and the naked throat and skin
round the eyes are of a fine bright
green.
1t is generally in the early part of
the day that the campanero sends
forth the wonderful note, which will
often travel quite three miles.
Marvellous, indeed, must be the
mechanism of the vocal organs of sc
small a bird to produce such a far
reaching note; but there is no doubt
of the fact, for many travellers have
been able to testify to the immense
distances over which the anvil note
al be heard.

Oddities Of ZOOLOGY.

Zoology has it's Oddities" said
John Lover, the Zoo keeper, land
that is why l study it at night, after
my regular work is done.
There are certain animals whose
circulation reverses its direction at
short intervals. The blood flows one
way in them for a while, then it turns
and flows the other way.
There are insects that have their
ears on their legs. Others have their
ears on their tails. AS for the eyes,
well, they may be found on the back,
on the shell, on the limbs, practically
everywhere.
There are animals hat lay two
and three different kind of eggs, and
there are eggs that each produce
from two to eight young.
There are Siamese twin animals,
with two bodies perfectly united,
There are males that live in the gul
let's Of females. There are animals
that commit suicide rather than be
slain.
Altogether zoology is odd and in
teresting. l would rather study it al
night than go to the play."-Philadel
phia Ledger.
