a Warning to Mothers.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather
of the summer months to guard against
bowel troubles. As a rule it is only
necessary to give the child a dose Of
castor oil to correct any disorder of the
bowels. Do not use any substitute, but
give the old fashioned castor oil, and
see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nau-
seates and has tendency to grippe. If
this does not check the bowels give
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy and then dose of castor
oil, and the disease may be checked i'll
it's incipiency and all danger avoided.
The castor oil and this remedy should
be procured at once and kept ready for
instant use as soon as the first indication
Of any bowel trouble appears. This IS
the most successful treatment known
and may be relied upon with implicit
confidence even in cases Of cholera
infantum. For sale by The Kaufman
Drug Co.

Violated British Law.

Washington, Aug. l8-The State
Department has received 8 mail re-
port from Consul Oret', at Kingston,
Jamaica, concerning the arrest of DR..
Frank Clark, of Boston, for making
photographs Of British Notifications.
He says that Clark has been released,
his father, E W. Clark, of Boston,
furnishing bail, but that the former
will be tried August 2Ssh upon the
charge. Clark did not suffer while
in prison, but was treated we'll.
The consul says that there seems
to be no doubt that Clark technically
violated the law, bat that he had no
intention of so doing, although q
man of his learning ought to have
known better. Arrangements have
been made to have competent coun-
eel defend him, and there is no doubt
that he will be given fair trial.

Our Georgetown Letter.


Editor and Friende: Ny recent
visit 10 your county, my old home
county, was much enjoyed. met
numerous relatives and friends who
seemed glad to zee NE and spread
tender fried chicken before me as
proof of my welcome. There was
one peculiar incident. I met Thomas
Rauch everywhere I went. At Lex
ington and Re was there; at Hilton
and he was there. I wanted to visit
a neighbor's watermelon patch one
night and I was afraid for fear he
would be there. I went on back to
Columbia and he was there. He
nav not be s'fruror," but / don't
koow. Saw Bass Meetze too, the
Jolly old fellow, and be never gets a
bit older.
The crops were looking good and
everybody seemed to be feeling good
in anticipation of great biz har-
vest and great big price, pocket
ful of money and solid comfort
What is sweeter in life then content
mens in cottage down on the fam,
where the morning glories climb to
the caves of the house and "Old
Bob White" awhistling in the dis
tance and when the clouds overcast
! the sky at nightfall? What music
| is half so rapturous as the music o1
| the rain upon the root?
very reluctantly left old Licking
ton, but look forward with the blight
est emotions and expectations to an
other visit.
Well, I am back at the same old
place and things seem to be rolling
along very smoothly. This county is
distressins]y healthy now and we are
thinking Of qoaranting against New
Orleans on account of yellow fever
Speaking seriously, New Orleans il
bound to suffer.
We are having dry spell down
| here, but tits just the kind OF weather
for logging and the big mills are saw
ing to their full capacity. 1t is soon
time for rice birdie, coots, etc, but ]
am afraid I will mics these delicious
birds this season, az the rice planters
could not afford to plant rice on DC
count of the low price. The birds
will come but they cans stay.
We are not voting prohibition down
here, not that 1t does NOS proniolt,
but that the dispensary fills the bill
We have no walking or stationary
blind tigers. Ine-ad, I think this
county runs the dispensary system
az near like Ben Tillman intended j!
as is possible and everybody seems
we'll satisfied.
Pawley Island is doing G good
business and the beach is foe, and,

A. C. l.. MAIL CAR ROBBED.
Large Amount of Registered Mail Sc
cured by Masked Bandit. VINO
Escaped With His Booty on the
Outskirts of Montgomery.

Montgomery, Ala, January THE
mail car on the Atlantic Coast Line
which arrived in Montgomery at 6
O'Clock this evening, was robbed about
five miles east of the city. A large
amount of registered mail was secured
and the bandit made his escape, drop
ping off the train as it entered the out
skirts of Montgomery. Eugene Hester,
the railway mail clerk, was shot
through the hand.
A stop was made at Wiley, six miles
from Montgomery and Hester believes
the robber entered the car at that point.
Shortly after leaving there Hester was
ordered to throw up his hands AMI
turning he saw that he was covered by
pistol in the hands of a masked white
man. Hester grabbed at the pistol and
the robber fired, the ball going through
the palm of the mail clerks hand. Hes
ter then gave in and the robber keeping
him covered helped himself to the reg
istered packages and when the train
slowed up leaped from the car.
1t cannot be told at this time the
amount secured but ii is believed to be
large.

IN CARE OF THE SHERIFF.


Cleveland, O., January Judge
Wing of the United States District court
today abrogated his recent order that
no person should be allowed to see MIS-
a written permit signed by the United
States marshal
His decision places Mrs. Chadwick
absolutely under the jurisdiction of the
sheriff while she continues to be con-
fined in the county Jail, and the latter
official will have the sole authority to
say who shall or shall not see her
1t is intimated however, that the Fed
eral officials may take further action to
prevent this, possibly by removing Mrs.
Chadwick to some other Jail or prison.

Nogi as n token Of his appreciation
and admiration.
General Nogi expressed his thanks
for the Russian generals kindness,
but said he could not accept the horse,
but he continued he would accept IL
for the army since he considered that
the Russian horses were the property
of Japanese and felt he could not
make General Stoessefs charger his
private property.
General Nogi also promised that
when the horse was handed over to
him to see that it was treated with
the greatest kindness out of respect
for the brave Russian general.
Thereupon General Stoessei assur-
ed General Nogi that he admired his
rigorous principles and appreciated
his point of view.
The japanese commander requested
General Stoessel to continue to occupy
his residence at Port Arthur until ar
rangements were completed for the
return of himself and family to Rus
sia
Referring TO the burial of the dead
General Nogi said the japanese since
the beginning OF the military opera
tions had always buried the Russian
dead Those found later on would
be inferred at a special spot and a
suitable memorial would be erected
as q, tribute to the bravery of the Jap
anese former foes.
After luncheon at which both gen.
erals sat together a group photograph
was taken at the cottage and Cen
eral Stoessel remounted his charger
to show the horses good points, said
good bye to General Nogi and rode
back to Port Arthur.
The quiet and even solemn meeting
Of the generals ended at about ]
o'clock.
The regular Russian soldiers in
Port Arthur marched out today. The
only troops now in the city are the
volunteers.
Two fires were started in Port Ar
thur today for which General Stoes-
sci apologized. He said the volun-
teers were unable to control the pop
ulace and he desired that the Jap
anese enter Port Arthur Immediately
to keep order.
The formal entry OF the Japanese
army into Port Arthur has been fixed
for Sunday, January Sth.
RUSSIAN TROOPS NOT SURPRISED
AT PORT ARTHUR's FALL
Mukden, January 6, via Pekin, Janu-
ary Though the news of Port Ar
thurs capitulation was first generally
known here today it was surmised by
the Russian army January 4th from the
cheering heard in the Japanese camp
along the entire line when cries Of
'fBanzai," were distinctly heard. The
news created no surprise, because the
army had become accustomed to the
possibility of Port Arthur's fall from
before the battle of Lao Yang and
since. Although the deaths of Generals
Fock and Kondratenko were not pub
lished here the facts regarding Fock
had been accepted for six weeks and the
condition of Port Arthur was known
throughout. While it is impossible to
telegraph the tenor of opinion, yet it is
evident that great events must trans
pire before the end of the war is ap'
parent.
There was an unusual cannonadine
yesterday along the center. 1t was con-
tinued in moderate form today.
