The Word "Ciaar."

The word "cigar" has a curious orr
gin. 1t may be traced back to the time
in the sixteenth century when the
spaniards introduced tobacco into
Spain from the island Of Cuba. Each
man cultivated the plant in his gar
den and rolled the leaves up for smok-
ing, as he had seen the Indians in the
West Indies do. The Spanish for gar
den is cigarral. and when a man Of
fered a roll of the tobacco leaves to a
friend he would say, "Es de mi CT
garral" dt is from my garden). After
awhile the expression came to be
Este cigarro es de mi cigarraT' (this
cigar is from my garden), and so II
was that the term cigar came into
use all over the world. But the
strangest part of it all is that the cigar
really gets it's name from the grass
hopper. though indirectly The Span
ish for grasshopper is cigarra, and a
garden is called cigarral because grass
hoppers are very abundant in such
places.

Preacher Disgraced.

We believe in minding our own
business, but we must question the
propriety of publishing to the world
the Billings affair at Blackville. We
had known of the investigation for
two or three weeks, but refrained
from mentioning it, and would not
do so now had not an article appear
ed in the daily papers. Innocent par
ties suffer from such publications,
and we seriously doubt the wisdom
of making public such a nauseating
affair. One serious error was made
in the special from Blackyille, which
stated a pretty domestic was in
volved. The servant girl concerned
in the affair was a negro. This girl
had been employed in the home OF
the Rev. Billings for some time, but
left and came; to Bamberg, where
she secured employment. For the
last few months he had been trying
to get her back, and his many trips
down here for this purpose no doubt
gave rise to the first suspicious
against him. During the investiga-
ton, two gentlemen from Blackville
came down and carried the girl up
to testify in the case.

be here by ten o'clock, as the days

CAMDEN, June 21.-In the dispen-

precincts with one more to hear from
give total vote of 556. Of this 322
was against the dispensary and 24
for it. or a majority of SO against the
dispensary. The missing box willprob-
ably bring the majority against the
dispensary up to 100. Avote was also
taken on manufacture" and mo
manufacture" and the manufacture
lost out also, but up to now the exact
figures are not obtainable.
In the election every precaution
was taken to make it conform strictly
to law, and cleaner, fairer election
was never held in this or any other
county. Yet there is talk of hunting
up some technical grounds of protest
ing it. There is no intimation what
ever Of fraud and whether or not the
dispensary advocates will resort to
this extreme to save it upon techni-
cal grounds the next few days may
tell.

Church Scandal at Blackvllle.

BLACKvILLE, June 23.-What has
been one of the greatest sensations
that this town has ever known is
that which eliminated in the ex-
communication from Baptist church
here today of Rev. c. M. Billings,
it's pastor.
Billings resignation was asked for
on last Sunday, and positive proof
of the awful scandal which has been
generally reported on him recently
being in the hands Of the church, he
was today excluded.
Billings, upon hearing that his
church had positive proof that cast
away the slightest possibility of his
innocence being believed even by
his friends, left town on the next
train. A pretty domestic is involv-
ed. ! His wife, who is an invalid. and
his only child, a small boy, are still
here.
Just what he will do with himself
and them is not known.
Billings left yesterday afternoon
for parts unknown.

Night Work for the Glass-House Boy

Contrast life on the farm with the
life of the little glass-house boy, who
every other week enters the factory
at five in the evening, sits at the feet
of the glass blower to open and shut
the molds, stands at his side to break
off the soft, wax-like glass from the
end Of the blow pipe, or carries the
hot ware from the finisher to the an
healing oven. After a night of eight
or nine hours in this superheated fac
tory this little boy must go out into
the raw, cold morning to prepare
himself by sleep for another night of
labor. To compel young boys at the
time of life when body and mind are
undergoing their most rapid transfor-
nation to be employed at labor not
only exhausting in itself, but involv-
ing a radical change in all the habits
Of life each week, is to fasten upon
childhood an exaction not only inhu-
man in itself, but menacing to our
future social well-being. Secretary

mittee in Woman's Home Companion

Mayors Court

Monday morning Mayor Hair had
before him two negroes named r. c.
and B. C. Miller. They are brothers
and got too gay Saturday night and
were arrested. The charge against
R. C.. Miller was drunk and disorder
ly and carrying concealed weapon.
He was given $1,000 or 80 days for
disorderly conduct and $1,000 or 80
days for carrying a concealed weapon.
B. G.. Miller was drunk and cursing
and carrying an open knife in his
hand. He was given $500 or 80
days. They both paid up, the fines
being paid by their employer.
Mike Guess and Charlie Jones,
both negroes, were up before the
mayor last week to give an account
ing for the row they had at the oil
mill about two weeks ago, in which
Guess shot Jones with shot gun
loaded with small shot. Jones was
not much hurt, however. Jones was
fined $1,000 which was paid. Guess
was fined $500, and he appealed to
council, being represented by an at.
torney. The appeal was to have been
heard Tuesday afternoon, but on
Monday Guess paid up. He no doubt
was afraid to risk his chances at an
other trial.
