What a pitifuI thing is fright. particula arly
the fright ofa little child; and moat pftiful o.
What agonisR are sometimes endureo oy
these tepder little hearta.
Helen Cobb was ten years old Her mol ner
was dead. and She Kept house for her father
other children. all younger than the iittie
housekpeper. Two or three nights ago Helen's
father gave her three cents with which TO 60
ont and buy kerosene oil. In the streei
Helen played and. romped with little girl
friend and when Rhe suddenly remembered
her errand. the money, rhe whole three cents
was gone!
Helen crept into the cellar Of a saloon:
climbed into the Ice box, and shtvering all
night remained there while her father and
the New York police force searched Tor her
The next morning her face. white with child
,sh terror and her clothing damp and cold
she emerged and ran into her fathers out
stretched arms, crying:
"You won't whip me, will you daddy7"
There ia nothing to- show that Cobb was nm.
kind to his child, but there bad evidently
been something In her life to make her fear
the consequences Of the loss OF the three pen
pies. Possibly she bad seen other children
beaten and expected that dire punishment
would be visited upon her.
1t is q pity that cbildreD are ever Taught
fear. 1t 10 one Of the worlds most hideous
things. They should. OF course, be warned of
real dangers. but 10 live In terror OF the dark;
to trembie over ghost stories; to shrink from
the faces that should hreak into smiles at the
sight OF them; to fly from arms that should
encircle them tenderly-such things should
never be.
The truth is q little child ia heav ems tender-
est gift to rather rough and cantsnkerons
old cuss of a word-a little messenger who
pulls us one way while the devil pulls the
other. Let us not ma ke these little ones cold
and selfish and wicked like ourselves, nor h'l
with fear the young heart that should be
joys own abiding place.

Cheap Insurance.

Z As an example OF what energy and busi-
ness tact can do, We would cite the manage
Inent Of the Farmers Warehouse by Mr.. R,
e. Cox. Cashier Of the Peoples Bank. When
he took hold of the warehouse the annual
rate Of Insurance was Sl.40 per 500, or about
70 cents bale. Last year he succeeded In
getting the rates reduced to about IS cents q
3biie. He Is now having great tank erected
which will contain $4,000 gallons OF water
When the tank Is finished the insurance will
be reduced to one-half the present rate, or
about l-2 cents per bale per year.
Some 50 900 was paid for insurance for the
year before this year. Cutting the price from
70 cents a bale to Is cents bale, made the
Z cost correspondingly less for this year. And
mex: year it will be only half Of the cost fol
this year.
& The saving in insurance which Nj. Cox has
effected ia enough for good dividend.
Another thing for which Mr.. Cox is par tly
responsible Is the high premium which has
been offered and refused for stock In the Peo
pIe's Bank.
President 8. g. Thomson and Cashier R. E
Cox make good team. On managing-a bank
these gentlemen are sound, safe and sane
II they did not possess In q large degree that
business tact which brings the best OF sue
oess, why is 1t that SIPS has been offered and
refused for stock In their bank? II anybody
is tired Of his investment he can get sl25 for
his shares.

Immfg rants.

The immigration ship which is soon to ar
rive In Charleston may mark q new era In
the development of South Carolina. Wheth-
or Immigration means anything for the real
npbuiiding Of the State or not depends on
tho character OF the immigrants brought In.
AS far as possible the emigrants should 6s
taken from the farming element, and those
who are financially able. should be induced
10 buy land here. There Is nothing that
tends 30 much TO fix q mans habitation az
ownership OF land. 1t is perhaps we'll enough
70 include in the lot, skilled mechanics, but
the demand even for these is not so urgent as
for the farm laborer or farm owner.
The views of Congressman Aiken on this
point as expressed in q speech In Congress
on the subject, are not wide OF the mark.
His plea for restriction and Discrimination
In the selection OF emigrants, Is plainly In
accord with the plan Of the commissioner
Whether or not the commissioner will, like
him, see the larger prospect OF good results 10
selectipg mainly from the farming element
remains to be seen.
Happily, for sake OF illustration, Abbeville
County has had a practical demonstration OF
tae tfutility OF selecting emigrants, indis.
criminately.
y About thirty years ago number Of gentle.
men In the Vicinity Of Bradleys Mill, this
county, secured German Colony which they
settled in that section. There we're In the
colony carpenters, masons, blaoksmiths and
tailors, and all of the very best There werr
also few farmers and number of we'll edu-
Gated gentlemen with no particular calling.
= The we'll educated gentlemen, with no par
ticular calling, remained some of them less
than six months; the tsilors stayed some
thing less than two years; the mechanics re-
s mained for five or six years; the farmers we're
the last to leave; but eventually folded their
!. tents and Joined their brethren In the large
. cities. Some trace has been kept OF them
J. and as far as has been learned they aud their
descendants are doing we'll, but they have al
: most without exception Joined the over
/. .whelming consumer GLASS.
q The mistake made by our people was In mo-
. having them invest In land, and in not max
ing up the colony Of homogeneous farming
element II this had been done, the immi-
I grants would have rename ed and the red hills
: OF that section OF the county would have pre-
+ septed q very different appearance.

AbbevilIe Must Have q Laundry.
j There is NO denying either Of these facts
namely:
First-Abbeville needs q laundry.
Second-Abbeville will have laundry.
Third-It is estimated that Abbeville sends
away about $3.50 q month to different laun
dries.
Fourth-It Is certain that local foundry
well managed, would receive more custom
than all the work now sent away.
Fifth-Mr. Norwood now has under co nsid-
Grafton the putting in Of laundry plant, and
II may be said to be a fact. that others are
waiting on Mr.. Norwood's possible action. or
non-actfon. II he declines to put up the

WHY WILSON
DIDN'T BID
Afraid That lie Might
Be Broken on the
Specifications.

John Emmeluth yesterday told an
Advertiser reporter the reason that
John H. Wilson. the usually eager bid
der for public works did not put in a
bid for the Nuuanu reservoir. 1t shows
that an elastic condition of the specifi-
cations was recognized amongst the
contracting fraternity before the con-
tract was awarded.
When bids were called for, to con-
struct the reservoir" Mr.. Emmeluth
said, II assisted John H Wilson in
preparing figures on the work.
Wilson got the figures but came
back to me and said he would not bid
for the work. as he was afraid of being
cinched owing to the nature of the
specifications.
IF I got the contract Wilson said
to me- you would only lose on back
ing me- 1t is cut and dried that
Whitehouse will get the contract if
possible, and if 1 should get it I'd be
broken on the Specifications the way
they are drawn
Every body now knows how the
Specifications were drawn. It is not so
much a matter of holding water, but a
case where Daniel O'ConneWs coach
and four might be driven through

The Hawaiian Islands have been
the theme of praise ever since tourists
landed on their shores, for here we
find abundant material for descriptive
whether it be drives through
a riot of tropical groves or visits to
the grandest active volcanoes of the
world. Hawaii appeals forcibly to the
tourist and the seeker for tropical
life. The trade winds and the con-
slant sunshine are a happy combina-
ton; the resultant eQuable climate is
