The Catalina Tree South.

Between the lumber manufacturer. the
naval stores operator and the annual
forest fires, the south is being rapidly
denuded of her forests, while no effort is
made to perpetuate the pine timber. The
cypress is of too slow growth to offer
much hope. requiring twelve years to
grow one inch in thickness. Recently
the northern hardy catalpa has been in

tation in Louisiana has planted $4,000
of these trees in Florida for the East
Coast Railroad company. A cypress tree
4 feet in diameter requires 800 years to
grow; southern yellow pine grows large
enough for saving in from 10 to 12O
years, while catalpa specioso two feet
in diameter has been grown in New Or
leans in II years. Because of this rapid
growth it is now one of the trees most

CHINESE THRIFT.
The Celestial Empire Poor Field for
Accident Insurance Companies.

China would be poor field for acct
dent insurance companies said a man
in the tea trade. THE Inhabitants
would be only too glad to get hurt in or
der To collect their insurance.
Up the river from Hong Kong there :
a little settlement of Englishmen- Just
across the river is il graveyard, inhabit-
ed by few scrub birds of the snipe
family. They are very poor shooting
but your Briton must have sport of some
kind, and shooting these birds is the
only sport i'll sight.
One day an Englishman let drive at
4 snipe and hit Il Chinaman who had
just bobbed out from behind tomb
stone. The charge of shot struck the
e0olie i'll his wrist, putting his hand out
Of business.
"Of course, the Chinaman made Il
roar. The Briton, wanting to do the
square thing, offered to pay the damage.
The cOolie demanded SO. The English
man generously made it SO.
There was never any good hunting in
the graveyard after that Whenever an
Englishman was seen approaching,
Chinaman hid behind every gravestone.
With marvellous cleverness they'd
manage to get in range just when the
Briton fired. If one of them had the
luck to get two or three birdshOt in his
system, lie would come out, roar and
collect.
"Of course, this drove away the snipe;
but the coolies took to catching birds.
tying them by the leg to grayestones
and hiding themselves in holes from
which they could rise and get shot at
the proper moment. The Englishmen
had to stop hunting. 1t was too ex-
pensive.
"One Of the pleasant and refined Chi
nese fortunes is crushing the ankle.
There are coolies in Shanghai who keep
a standing offer to submit to this tor
ture for the benefit of tourists at a rate

Il know of several cases where this
offer has been accepted. The cooie sub

THE LITTLE GUEST-ROOM IN MY
HEART.

The little guest-room in my heart
| fitted fer thy tenancy,
And though thy presence stays apart
II is not wholly bare of thee:
For all the dreams there take thy shape
And from each humble thing it holds
Some fragrant thoughts of thee escape,
Like lavender from linen-folds.
No picture hangs upon the walls
That amy other eye could trace,
But ever where the sunlight falls
see the glory of thy face.
No other tenant may it take
Nay, rather loneliness for choice
| would not have another wake
the echo's dreaming of thy voice.

A conscientious, hard-workinc and

Il am glad to bear testimony to the
pleasure and increased measure Of eff

me from adopting Grape-Nuts food as
one Of my articles of diet.
For several years l was much dis
tressed during the early part Of each
day by indigestion. My breakfast, uSu-
ally consisting of oatmeal, milk ana
eggs, seemed to turn sour and failed
to digest. After dinner the headache
and other symptoms following the
breakfast would wear away, only to
return, however, next morning.
Having heard of GrapeNuts food
finally concluded to give it fair tria"

and made my breakfasts of Grape
Nuts, cream, toast and Postum. The
result was surprising in improved
health and total absence Of tie dis

Mr.. Younans is simply recount1ng
what the supreme court has held to be
the proper Interpretation of the pro-
hibition feature OF the dispensary law.
We are not at all indignant, but we
do say as we have on several occa-
sions, that the effort now is too much
towards trying to regulate the con-
duct of the citizens Of this state. We
do not believe and never have that
you can make people moral and tenn
perate by prohibition legislation.
We hold that if a man desires to
have a little whiskey in his house tor
medicine or to be used as bever'
age, that he should have a perfect
right to do so without asking permls-
sion Of any one so long as he does not
interfere with the rights, privileges,
property or happiness of his nelghbor,
and that government is overstepplng
itself when it undertakes to regulate
his conduct.

A merry row seems to be brewing
among the prohibition forces Of the
state and lengthy newspaper inter
views and communications oare being
utilized to set forth the merits Of the
respective sides. A. G. Jones, New
berry prohibitionist who for some rea-
son imagines that he is running for
governor, is sore on the effort TO get
Jos. A. Mccullough of Greenville to
make the race. Mr.. Jones also has a
grievance Of some sort against w. H.
Wallace of Newberry, prominent
prohibitionist who was largely instru-
mental in securing the voting out Of
the dispensary from Newberry coun-
ty. He also attacks Joel E. Brunson,
another prominent prohibiEionist lead
er. All these parties are hitting back
at Mr.. Jones and lively times are the
order in prohibition circles. All of
which is not doing the prohibition
movement any good.-Spartanburg
Journal.
Mr. Jones will let them know next
summer whether his race is imaginary
or not, and some of those people who
really think they are running, may
find that there is more reality in Mr..
Jones' race than in their own. There
seems to be some difference of opin-
ion among the prohibitivnists, but we
presume they will bury the hatchet
and get together before the cam
paign opens next year. 1t is probable,
however, that a great many prohibi-
tionists have fooled themselves into
believing that the vote against the
dispensary in the several counties
which have voted it out is vote for
prohibition. They may wake up next
year to find that that opinion was a
vain imagination.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER II, 1905.
The "Clansrnan."

We have read with great deal OF
interest the discussion in many news
papers Of the effect of the presenta-
ton on the stage in the south OF Mr..
Dixon's book, the "Clansman." The
opposition to MI. Dixon and his play
seems to be led by the Columbia
State, and the Greenwood Index and
other newspapers have joined in the
chorus, all of them prophesying that a
condition of lawlessness and hatred
and il1-treatment Of the negro will fol-
low the presentation of the play.
Probably they have not put it in
words so strong, but the interest
which they are taking in the matter
would lead to the conclusion that such
is the burden of their thought. This
is an extreme view. Did these same
newspapers take the other extreme
when "Uncle Toms Cabin" was pre-
sented in the south several years ago?
mot at the time when the sections
were arrayed one against the other,
bit long after the country had been
reunited. True, the, companies which
have presented 'sUncle Toms Cabin"
in the south in recent years have not
been as large as the company now
presenting the @C1ansman," nor have
thew excited as much comment. But
the play has been presented, neverthe-
less. "Uncle Toms Cabin" represent
ed nothing that was true in. the old
south before the war. It's presenta-
tion in the new south following the
war has excited little comment, for
the reason that the southern people
are too courageous and too loyal to
be influenced by idle vaporlngs.
The "Clansman" is true to history,
in that it portrays conditions as they
were-and is there anything in that
history of which the southern people
need be ashamed? Is there anything
in that history which they would de-
sire to forget? Is there anything in
that history which they would desire
that their children should not learn?
1t is true that the scenes are stir
ring. But if the southern people with
stood the stirring scenes of which the
book is a portrayal, would the State
and the Greenwood Index and other
southern newspapers contend that
they can not Withstand a presentation
Of the play? Surely not. ...

John Wesley's Greatness.

From the New York Tribune.
John Wesley's missionary labors among
his countrymen lasted forty years. He
Travelled mainly in the saddle. 1t was. OF
course, long before railroads, and in gen.
eral the carriage roads were abominable.
He Travelled 5000 miles a year and
preached 5000 sermons. He paid more
turnpike tolls than any man in England
before or since his time. His scores at
the inns where he lodged would have
made history of prices. He knew not
fatigue; was always cheerful and buoyant
and carried on his immense labors with
out being bent or broken by them. 1t would
be hard, probably impossible. to reconstruct
his itinerary; to stand by the rocks and
natural amphltheaters IN Cornwall and
in Lancashire and Berk-
shire where he preached his gospel TO the
heather.
England has known a procession OF tre-
mendous workers. none more extended or
strenuous in the history of any land, but
among them all no toiler surpassed John
Wesley. Edinburgh Is TO have n statue of
him in her stronghold of Presbyterianism,
which will crown its site with a figure Of
honor hardly ever equaled in the long sue
cession of England's WORTHLESS, whatever
their lines of action and the fiourishes with
which they recorded their names on the
pages of her history.
