The Modern Wife and the Money
Question.

Usually it is the shadow of money
that brings the first partial eclipse to
the honeymoon, and unless the prob
lem is rightly handled the eclipse may
become total. The modern wife can
not be always asking for money and
retain either her happiness or her self
respect The husband could not keep
his business going if he did not have a
pay day for his employees or if he was
careless about settling his bills. He
cannot expect to keep his house going
without financial arrangement that
will give it regularity and security. 1t
is passing strange that this matter
should be a constant difficulty in mil.
lions of homes, but it is hardship
which wives are supposed to bear un-
complaining She is a wise woman
whorebels early and secures her rights,
for she will never to successful wife
until she has her part of the income
without days of grace or discounts.
This is important; it is vital. Unless it
Is made plain and duly fixed, all her
other purposes and aspirauts will be

The prisoners were conducted to
separate building, where they were put
in charge of an officer, who performed
the duties of provost-marshal over
some twenty or more Wings that had
been captured in the late excursions of
the Tories, and brought into camp for
safe keeping. The place Of their con-
finement was narrow and uncomfortable
and Butler was soon made aware that
in the exchange of his prison at Mus
groves mill for his present one, he had
made an Improbable venture. His
condition with Ferguson, however
was alleviated by the constantly -excit-
ing hope that the events which were
Immediately in prospect might, by the
chances Of war, rebound to his advan-
tage.
In this situation Butler remained for
several days. For although Ferguson
found it necessary to keep in almost
constant motion with a view to hover
about the supposed direction OF
Clarke's retreat, and, conformably to
this purpose, to advance into South
Carolina, and again to fall back to-
wards his present position, yet he had
established a guard at Gilbert-town
which, during all these operations, re-
mained stationary with the prisoners,
apparently waiting some fit opportunity
to march them off to Cornwalllss s
army, that was now making its way
northwards. That opportunity did not
present itself. The communications
between this post and the commander
in chief were, by a fatal error, neg
lected; and in a short time from the
date of the present events, as will be
seen In the sequel web was woven
which was strong enough to ensnare
and bind up the limbs of the giant who
had, during the last five months erect
ed and maintained the Tory Ascen-
dency in Carolina.

his superb mansion numbers, he was,
after some difficulty, induced to rent
the palace to the American ambassa-
dor for the stiff sum Of $4,000 a
year, which is just $4,000 more than
the transatlantic diplomats salary.
Built in the ornate Italian style, 1t
contains twenty-four bedrooms and
boudoirs, twelve sitting rooms and
six reception rooms. These latter,
moreover are so arranged that they
can easily be converted into what Is
virtually one apartment where more
than 1000 people can be and quite
frequently are entertained with ease.
At the rear of the house, too, are
beautiful sunken italian gardens and
stabling accommodation for eighteen
horses. Mr.. Reid has also one Of the
finest country seats in England

Buckingham Palace is the London
home of the king himself. The com
parison, says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, is highly significant. AS
matter OF fact, there is nothing In the
kings palace to compare with several
features of Dorchester House.
For instance, the grand marble
staircase Is said to have cost more
than $15O,OOO. The mansion contains
one of the best collections Of pictures
in England, insured for $25.OOO.O0O.
Another attraction of the house Is

A WONDERFUL LocK.-Neuman To-
bias, of Kingston, Jamaica, has invent
ed a most remarkable lock, says the
Scientific American. The combination
consists of four sets of twenty -four
letters Of the alphabet, which can be
set to a sentence In most modern Ian
euages. When one letter Is used In one
alphabet and another in the second set,
and so on, it becomes a very compli-
Gated matter, indeed. Then there Is
the initial problem of what language
it has been keyed in, to be solved by
the man who attempts to open the safe.
Furthermore, instead OF letters, Mr..
Tobias has employed four sets Of nu-
merals. Assuming that the lock Is set
to a figure in the number of 3.030,303,-
03O, ,3O3, ,O3O, 1t would take any one who
undertook the job of unlocking the
safe 96,090,278 years, 269 days, 80 min
utes and 80 seconds, working at the
rate Of so numbers a minute, to ar
rive at the proper combination.
During this time he would have no
time for eating or sleeping or drink

HE WAS In SUCH HURRY.-A man
who has resided in Cairo told this tale
as an illustration Of the dilatory ways
OF Arabian trades people:
"A certain gentleman ordered a
swing to be erected in his garden for
the use of his little boy, aged six. He
waited and waited, but the swing new
er arrived. In due course Of time that
boy grew up to mans estate and be-
came himself the father Of little boy.
When his son was six years old he
remembered how his own father had
ordered a swing to be made for him.
So he called on the tradesman, VINO
lived at his gate, and asked him TO
send up the swing that had been or
dered twenty years before. The man
agreed to do so. The little boy becom-
ing impatient after three weeks, his
father called again and demonstrated
with the Arabian as to his dilatoriness.
The indignant tradesman replied that
he could not really undertake to serve
any one who was In such fearful
hurry"

Columbia special of Friday to the
News and Courier: The decision Of
the United States supreme court with
reference to expenses for the re-
moval Of the Cherokee Indians from
the eastern states to the Indian Ter
ritory, more than one-half a century
ago, does not affect this state. 1t Is
stated, by those who have looked into
the question, that there are no Cher-
okee Indians in this state, and that
those who were members OF tribes,
who lived in South Carolina, were
made to leave here prior to the or
ganiZation of South Carolina as a
state. Whatever Cherokee Indians
there were in South Carolina, 1t is
stated. left here before South Caro-
lima went into the Union, and there
fore 1t Is argued that there is no La
bility involved, so far as the Cher
okees are concerned. There Is, how
ever, concern here, as result OF
this decision as an indication that
the Indians have some standing be-
fore the United States courts In their
claims. 1t will be remembered that
the Catawba Indians are now making
claim for considerable property In
York county. The agent Of the tribe
has already been here, and made
study Of the claim. He appeared be-
fore the committee Of the general
assembly and presented the claim.
but received so little encouragement
that he proceeded to denounce
things in a pretty lively style. The
inference is that the Catawbas Will
take their case to the Federal courts,
and Judging from the verdict that
has Just been secured through the
Federal courts, involving something
like four million dollars. those bring
ing the suit, are no doubt encourage

holders involved in the Catawba dis
trict will have to do something to

WHO Is KURoKl.
Marvellous Tale Comes From the Ba-
zaars of India.

SCiSeo SS"Oo ebO 80
zaars of India.
A curious tale is going the rounds OF
the bazaars In India, says a Bernbay
dispatch. 1t Is believed by every ma
tive that Gen. Kuroki, the marvellous
Japanese commander, is no other than
Sir Hector Macdonald. Many persons
have never believed that the brilliant
English general Is dead, and not long
ago there appeared in the London
Times an offer of a reward Of $1,000 to
any one who had seen his dead body.
1t Is also a fact that Sir Hector was
once invited to go to Japan to train
the Japanese army, and he actually
mentioned 1t to Lord Roberts. No hon.
or has ever been publicly bestowed on
Kuroki, who appears to have vanished
as suddenly and mysteriously as he
appeared.
Even the Japanse, with all their ret
lcence, confessed to a correspondent
that Kuroki had much foreign blood In
him, and the American journalist de-
clared he was a Dutchman.
Both the life and death of Sir Hec-
tor Macdonald were full of romance
and mystery. His exact age is not
known; the circumstances of his death
and burial are obscure. What is
known Is that Macdonald was a Scotch
crofter lad, that he enlisted in 1871
and that he served In the ranks ten
years. His rise to a major general and
K. c. b. was the result of pure SOL
diering.
In the Afghan campaign, at Kabul,
on Majuba Hill and Omdurman he
won fights and fame. After the Boer
campaign he was given high COM
mand in India, and then in 1908 came
the report that he had suddenly left
Hindustan ION private business.
On this business he reached Paris
and there read in a newspaper that he
was to stand court-martial on grave
charges" Then came the report that
Immediately on reading this paragraph
he went to his room and shot himself
At first II was decided that the gen.
eral was to be buried in. Paris, but q
new surprise appeared in the person OF
his widow, of whose existence the wal
office did not know. BY the express
wish of Lady Macdonald the body-or
as rumor now, the coffin-was sent to
London and unceremoniously huddled
away to Scotland in a baggage van
The body. or the coffin, was quietly
almost secretly, buried in a public
cemetery at $50 in the morning. The
coffin was not opened from the time II
left the Paris hotel.

road, from what seemed certain
death was miraculous. The child
was playing near the track at g

train came along. The engineer did
not see the small form on the track
until it was too late to stop the train
The pflot struck the child and knock
ed it down between the crossties, and
the engine, tender and half the train
passed over the body before the en-
gine stopped. The child was TAX
en- from under the train, un-
conscious, and slightly bruised, but
1t soon recovered consciousness. The
engine was detached from the train
and the child was placed on 1t and
hurried to Fountain Inn for medical
attention. Physicians found that the
injuries sustained were not serious.
