The KINGSTREE EXCURSIONISTS.
A Large ane jolly Crowd Spend the
Day Pleasantly In Charleston.

A large party of eXcurslonis's
from Kingstree and some other
poinrs on the Atlantic Coast Line
arrived in Charleston yesterday
morning. The eXculs sion had been
given Under the patronage OF the
knights of Pythias of kingstree
and included many represen tatlVe
people of that fine little city. The
visitors spent the time plea:antIy

A Case in Point.

If in this day and time the propo-
sition that advertising pays needs
verifcation, the fact was pretty
fairly demonstrated in the Klngstree-
Scranton Pythian excursion last
Monday. Seldom or never in these
parts has similar affair been so
thoroughly and effectively advertis-
ed. The committees went to work
enthusiastically and in+ell;gently
and spared neither pains nor expense
to get their enterprise presented to
the public, and right WILL were their
efforts rewarded.
The night before the day of the
excursion the rain fell almost con-
tinuously and the dawn was ushered
in with intermittent showers. Cold,
wet, dreary and dsagreeable, the
day looked better suited for almost
anything else than pleasure ex-
cursion, so that the Knights would
have been willing to call the thing
off by going "fifty dollars in the
hole" Yet despite the disastrous
weather conditions, the train of
six coaches carried about four hnn-
dred people and not only did the
lodges clear expenses but they
actually made profit of aboat fifty
dollars.
Paste this in your hats, ye penny

tising does not pay.

One of the largest excursions run
ON the Atlantic Coast Line to
Charleston will be run from Dillon
and intermediate points on May 81,

The "unloaded'' gun still claims
its victims. Last week in Marion
a small boy pointed weapon
at Miss Clennie Smith, the
sixteen-year old daughter Of Mr. N
P Smith, a prominent citizen of that
town; the gun went off (as they
generally do, these unloaded fire
arms) and funeral resulted. Such
homicides may be accidental, but at
least those who are responsible for
them should be put in place where
society will be protected from their
carelessness for a term of years al

Expenses Of Montana Exhibit.

BUTTE, Feb. I. The Montana
Worlds Fair commission has about
wound up its business as it relates to
the St. Louis Exposition. Former
United States Senator Lee Mantle,
chairman of the board, says the com.
mission has expended about SOL ,0OO
since it's organization. The funds
available were sufficient to carry out
its plans, but there will be little or no
balance remaining. In addition to
the appropriation Of $500 O made by
the legislature two years ago, the
commission secured about $ll .OOl
from private subscription.
Although Chairman Mantle does
not speak for the commission, he is OF
the opinion that the Ninth Legislative
assembly will not be asked for an ad.
ditional appropriation for the Port.
land Exposition. The legislature two
years ago appropriated 500 600 for
the Lewis and Clarke fair, and while
the commission could use a large sun
to advantage, it will try to get along
with that.

They Fenced Government Land.

HELENA, Feb. THE United States
district attorney, Carl Rasch, has re.
ceived word that two decisions of vi.
tai Importance have been handed down
by the United States circuit court of
appeals in San Francisco in cases of
the government against Edward Card
we'll and A. +. Thomas, for illegal
fencing of government land.
The decision at1irms the ruling of
Judge Hiram Knowles to the effect
that where the government land is
controlled by one man, he a be com.
PEELED to take down the fence. Card.
we'll has the township fenced off and
Thomas has about so sections: both
" about half of the land fenced.
The government will now proceed with
several cases which have been held
up awaiting the decision, and it is
stated that there will be a general
coming down of fences all over the
state, where government land is en-.
closed.
The decision of the circuit court OF
appeals established the following pre-.
cedent: That where a person controls
an enclosure of land belonging to the
government, a portion of the fence
surrounding which is owned by per-
sons other than those controlling the
enclosed land, it is sufficient to pro-
coed against the person controlling
the land to compel him to remove the
fence without joining issue with all OF
them.

Stock Of All Kinds.

1t Is a score of years since prices
for good horses reached the high
average of 1904. There was II Pc
culiarity in the situation which not
only maintained but actually adj
vanced values when nearly all other
classes of livestock showed a decline.
Many consumers do not understand
why good horses command such ex-
%traordinary prices. Choice drafters
in particular have shown an advance
of $500 in all the great wholesale
markets as compared with average
current prices in 1903. Purchasers do
not object to paying high prices il
they ear get desirable weight, quality
and action with their purchases.
City sur do not understand
why horses are so scarce. While,
perhaps, there are Us many horses in
the United States as ut any time in
the industry, the number is relatively
small when c%ontrasted with the So,
600, 600 population in this country.
Demand and supply regulate prices.
National industries have grown rela,
lively faster than the production OF
horses. Hence good draft horses are
proving bonanzas in increasing tn,
income of the farm.
y leading feature of the American
horse industry is the increasing for.
cign demand for American bred ami
mails. The inquiry is not restricted
to any particular class, but includes
all commercial classitications. Bus.
sers. troopers, coachcrs. Orators,
hunters and harness performers, ar,
included in foreign orders. In 1885,
the volume of horses exported aggre.
gated only 2.72l head. The foreign
demand increased steadily until the
high point vas reached in 1904. wher
lO3, go head were exported. their
value being $40, las, O46.
This should be an incentive to Am.
erican farmers in the breeding and
improving of their horses, to get into
the market of high prices with the best
they a breed.
