Talking to the Bows,

A Missouri contemporary rises to re-
mark: "Once 1 was young but now l
am old, and l have never seen a girl
that was u%nfaithful to her mother that
ever CAM to be worth a %one-eyed but
ton to her husband. 1t is the law of
God. 1t isn't exactly in the Bible, but
it is written large and awful in the
miserable lives of many unfit homes.
I'm speaking for the boys this time. If
one of you chaps come across a girl
that, with a face full of roses, says to
you as she comes to the door, Il can't
go for thirty minutes, for the dishes
are not washed yet you wait for that
girl. You sit right down and wait for
her, because some other fellow may
come along and carry her off, and right
there you lose your angel. Wait for
d '"k to her like a burr to
a woolly dog"

KILLED ABOUT HIS SISTER.
Sam Chastaia Shot to Death by Joe
Simmons.

SENECA, Nov. 23.-Joe Simmons,
who lives about two miles from Cross
Roads in Oconee county, shot and
killed Sam Chastain at Bradbury's store
in Fork township in Anderson county,
about 8 O'Clock Tuesday night. Sim
mons, it is said, left Cross Roads late
Tuesday evening in company with two
other men, going to Bradbury's house.
All were drinking. Simmons remarked
to Chastain: go to the house and bring
your sister down here; I want to talk
to her."
Chastain refused this request, where.
upon witnesses say, Simmons drew his
pistol and fired the fatal shot. Sim
mons was lodged in Jail at Anderson
Wednesday evening. Chastain was q
simple-minded, but harmless youth OF
about 10 years old. Simmons is 2E
years old and has a family.

Two Records,.-.76 Children.

BIsHoPWLLE, Nov. %. -Esau Davis,
an old negro of the Elliott neighbor-
hood, died yesterday at the advanced
age of lit years.
He was the father of 81 children,
most of whom are alive.
This is reliable, as the information
comes from a respected citizen of the
county, whose character for exactness
and varacity is well established.
Old "Uncle Essau" belonged in the
old slavery days to the Thomas Green
family, of this county, and was a capa-
BILE and Trustworthy servant. He was
we'll cared for by the neighbors, white
and colored, during the last years of
his life.
Another case, not of longevity, but
of that success in raising a family that
would gladden. Mr.. Roosevelt's heart is
that of George Wilson, a colored farm
er of Spring Hill Township, who is 62
years of age and the father of 25 chill
dren by two wives.
