There are all Kinds of Fools.

About ) o'clock last Sunday alter
noon j. 5. Prevate, lineman for the
Manning Telephone Company, created
somewhat of sensation by putting the
contents of q laudanum vial into his
stomach, and then went off and fell
into deep sleep. Marion Smith, col
ored. saw Prevatt drink the stuff, and
gave the alarm. After sometime, the
services of Doctors Geiger and Dickson
were secured. They made connection
with the victim stomach by means of
u stomach pump, which brought up
a lot of food. hut no ]audanum. 1t was
then discovered that Prevatt had faxed,
what'for, can only be found in the
mans peculiar manner of making HIM
self notorious. What gave the matter
the appearance of reality was q letter
he wrote which was very respondent,
attributing his desire to call up ''cen-
tral" of the oL;,ioI ;~;crld being tired of
this life, and domestic trouble. A few
days ago he spoke to 4 lawyer about
divorces. and to some else he mention
ed his family troubles. 1t was fortunate
for Prevatt that those who went to his
rescue did not know his fake game
sooner, had thev. We believe they
would have resorted to 4 remedy that
taking laudanum would have been a
sweet dream to it. he would have
been placed across a barrel and soothed
into wakefulness that would nave for
q long time driven away any thought
of drowsiness. Mr.. Prevatt had better
not try such 4 game any more if he
appreciates the comfort OF q sitting
posture when fatigued.

Cuban Diarrhoea.

I. S. Soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know that this
disease is, and that ordinary remedies
have little more effect than so water.
Cuban diarrhoea is almost as severe
and dangerous as a mild attack Of
cholera. There is one remedy, how
ever. that can always be depended
upon as will be seen by the following
certificate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs
OF Houston, TaNas: Il hereby certify
that Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband
of severe attack OF Cuban diarrhoea
which he brought home from Cuba:
We had several doctors but they Gid
him no good. One bottle OF this remedy
cured him, as cur neighbors will testify

Law and Marriage.

Married last Saturday in the Baptist
parsonage, at Fort Mill, MIR. John K.
Breedin and Miss S. Sophie Higgins,
daughter of Rev. J. D. Higgins:
The Columbia State of last sunday
contains the following mention OF the
event:
The senior law class of the South
Carolina college is congratulating one
cf its members, Mr.. John K. Breedln,
OF Manning, upon the unique observ-
ance of his marriage day. Mr.. Breedin
for the last week has been in the midst
of the arduous labor of final eXamlna-
tiops and his last one came yesterday
morning. Along with the other mem
bers OF the class, Mr.. Breedin stood his
examination, leaving the class room
within few minutes OF : O'Clock. An
hour later he took the train Tor Fort
Mill, arriving there at I, and at S:3O
he married at the Baptist parsonage to
Miss Sarah Sophie Higgins, the daugh-
ter of the Baptist minister at that
place. the Rev. J. D. Higgins. 1t is
quite an unusual thing for a man to
stand examinations and marry before
getting his diploma, but Mr.. Breedin's
love was superior to law. After a short
bridal trip Mr.. and Mrs. Breedin will
return to Columbia so that Mr.. Breedln
may receive his diploma from the col
lege on June l4th.
To the above The TINES wishes to
add a feeble tribute to the merit
of the groom. John K. Breediu
has been Intimately associated with
the writer. We know him, and there
is no young man in the State with a
higher conception OF honor. He is made
of the stuff thatfamous men are made
of. He set out to win an education and
a profession, and few young men
this day would have had the grit to
stand and to suffer privations as has
this young man, for the sake OF an edu-
cation. We predict for him not
only successful career, but that
he will, before he reaches the
riddle age, become one of the foremost
men in the State He deserves to be,
and may Gods richest blessings be with
him and his.

In course OF time the men gained a
good deal OF Information regarding
crimes Of piracy carried out by the
crews of boats trading between Mira
apur and Allahahad. and II was found
that these men visited the great wa
terways OF Bengal solely for the pur.
pose Of piracy.
The result Of much correspondence
and investigation ON the part OF me
two governments was that, after some
captures had been effected by the Dac-
ca police. the Benares river police
were deputed 20 hunt down the pi.
rates who carried on their nefarious
business on the Brahmaputra.
They succeeded in capturing four
large pirate boats. and took from them
a number Of flags, and the other day
these flags were duly presented TO the
