Don't Touch The Baby.

DON'T IOucn Inc BABY.
Eugene Woods article on ssThe New
Baby" in american Magazine will '.stir
up the animals". 1t is an appeal for the
old and a criticism of the new. Follow
ing is one Of Mr.. Woods onslaughts:
"Most Of the new learning consists of
DON'T AS: Don't kiss the baby My
land! What's baby for if not to kiss
and mommick over? What becomes Of
the politicians il this foul heresy infects
our land? Don't rock the baby Half
the poetry in the language turns up its
toes and dies when that blow strikes
home. And will certain hand we wot
Of rule the world if it stops rocking the
cradle? Ruin stares the comic paper in
the face if that commandment is obeyed
which forbids the man OF the house to
walk the floor with the baby in the Silly
watches of the night.

who have taught from our youth that
we've got to drop everything and run the
instant the baby sets upa yoop. The So
cial fabric shudders when we are in
formed that it does the baby good to have
loud, long cry from time to time; it
strengthens his lungs and vocal organs,
tones up the heart, stimulates the peri
pheral circulation, and so forth and so on,
with much more of the same sort.

OF having one il you can't fuss with it by
the hour, dressing it up in fifty different
long tailed fiumma- -diddles, each with
sleeves to poke the little hanny- pannies
through? What's the use OF having a
baby il you can't wake it up at 10 O'Clock
at night to show it to the company And
what'll they think if they can't tickle it
with Observation-Disclosures they

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
4 HALF Nitted Man Shoots and Kills
His Neighbor.

Anderson County was the scene
If a. horrible tragedy on Tuesday Of
asst week, when Asbury Wooten.
white man of forty years, shot and
instantly killed Mr.. Duke Owens,
IAN of seventy-two years.
It is said that some boys playfully
ocked Mr.. Wooten's home Sunday
,vcning. and that atT. Wooten, be-
:ng halt witted, became very much
wrought up over the action OF tha
BOYS.
Tuesday morning, Mr.. Owens, ac-
,npsnied by another gentleman
.ent to the home of Mr. Wooten to
III HIM that the boys meant no
larn in rocking his home.
Mr.. Wooten ordered these gentle
nen off his place, and told MI
owens that ii he repeated what he
.ad said about the action OF the
,oys, he would kill him.
Mr.. Oweus remained to pacify Mr..
;Nooten, who became quite angry. :,
t was then that Mr. Owens was snot
trough the heart, which caused MS
Instant death.

SCARED TO DEATH.
.,eo,o Woman Thought Witches
Were After Her.

A Spartanburg letter says these
IS grea, excitement among the ne
grces oi that city because OF .ne;
ieath OF Susie Moore, who o1eo
suddenly az her home. The woman
ras taken i'll and acted in a strange
manner. aui many negroes believed
that she was poisoned. but an IN,
.estigatior by the coroner sho"eo
lat her death resulted from natur-
al causes.
Sunday night the woman began
20 act in a strange manner. She
declared that she vas possessed OF
witches aud seized handful of salt
and scattered IL about her room.
thinking a free use Of salt in the
house would run out the witches.
The woman soon lost consciousness
and fell on her bed.
Medical aid was summoned and
when the physician arrived she held
salt In both her hands. Coroner Tur-
ner made thorough Investigations of
rhe case, but found no evidence 70
| lead that she had been poisoned or
that her death resulted from other
than natural causes.

A Good Suggestion From the Char
lesion News and Courier.

We have frequently advocated the
purchase by the city Of tract o.
land for a public park, and We are
still of the opinion that the city
could make no better investment.
Sometime ago the Charleston News
and Courier editorially spoke Of the
agitation Of the subject Of parks in
the Spartanburg newspapers. and III
that article made the following pre-
dictions and suggestions:
Within a quarter Of century
Spartanburg, Greenville. Anderson,
Sumter. Orangeburgs Georgetown,
and other municipalities in South
Carolina will be cities Of from 25,-
900 to $4,000 population. No strain
ing of the imagination to forsee this
growth. The towns in South Caro-
lima are increasing in population
with a rapidity that is scarcely OBJ
served and in few years parks,
! that seem now luxury not to be
afforded, will be necessities.
Meantime the price Of lands is
also increasing. In the growing
! towns park area of twenty-five
acres that would cost now $4,000,
!: at $500 the acre will cost $4,000
the acre when the cities will be COM
PEELED to purchase and lay out parks
The question of adding to the park
acreage is one constantly before the
large cities Of the country.
AS a general proposition it seems
that any prosperous town OF $1,000
inha abitants is wise to invest In real
estate forpark purposes. Even though
the towns revenues do not permit
the present conversion of a bare
tract OF land into we'll kept groves
iand gardens. the enhancement o!
the value the land is almost certain
to pay in time handsome returr
on the investment. Meantime. some
work, such as the planting Of trees
can be done at little cost.
j There is scarcely any investmen,
SO safe and profitable as town anc
cit. real estate which the citizen:
AN make. If the purchaser can al
ord to hold long enough The pro
fits are certain. In all cases, the
municipality can hold indefinitely
therefore why should not the nun
icipaliry invest, IS trustee Tor th'
citizens of the future at the time
when ii can re done with the bes
promise Of large profits:

COST OF crime.
Figures That Will Surprise a Great
Many People.
Over Billion Dollars a Year Is
Spent III the United States On
Criminals.

The cost Of crime to the governn
ment reaches the enormous sum Of
! s140, 100000. OF this sum $50, 900,
00e is expended in a certain precen
tage of the maintenance Of the su
| preme and federal courts, United
States district attorneys, United
States marshals, and the secret ser.
vice bureaus: part of 1t is the cost
Of crime to the treasury department
to- prevent smuggling, the cost OF
crime to the army and the navy and
to the postofice and to allied de-
partments.
The government losses by SNUG.
Cling and postal frauds. ETC., add
the s60,0O0,000 to make the afore-
said total. In the last statement.
which is only an estimate Of what
the national government pays for
crime. 1t should be remem bered that
there are no reliable figures on the
subject.
In estimating the government
losses at s60,o00,000 a year for
oWQ6611u6, IL au0b OlS-b LuS N1llSl
has endearored to keep strictly un-
der the mark, 1t Is estimated that
the government loses from s75, ,000,-
900 to S100,0o0,000 a year by snug
Cling alone, while the postofhce
frauds are believed to have cost the
government something like 100000
year.
The detailed cost of crime IN the
United States represents some as
founding figures In 1897 the cost
Of crime in Greater New York was
s35,552.133.24. The state, county
and city authorities outside of Great
er New York. spent for 1t s42,605,-
472.75. In forty-fve states (New
York excluded the expenditure was
s6e7.080.000. Criminal losses by
fires totaled 100000.
BY customs frauds the national
government lost 100000, GOO. Dur
ing this one year the loss IN wages
to 100000 state prisoners was S2S,-
OS0.000. while the loss ia wages of
10000 prisoners in the city and
county jails was 33,000.000. The
grand total. therefore. Of the cost
of crime In the United States reaches
the stupendous figures of S1,076.-
327.605.99.
The cost Of religious work In the
United States is enormous. The cost
of foreign missions. comprising all
denominations. is 100000; home
missions expended the same sum.
We spend for education s200,000,-
900; for church expenses and min
isters' salaries, s150,000,000. Hos
pitals and dispensaries for the sick
poor cost US s100.600,0 900: for san
itariums Of all kinds We spend $780,
100000.
City missions and rescue work Of
all kinds demand and receive s3.-
100000; humanitarian work Of ev-
cry Kind, s12,000,000. Our Young
Mems and Young Women's Chris
tain associations cost s5,o00,000,
while all other moral and social
work in the United States requires
an expenditure of s5,000.000.
The total expenditure for humani-
tartan and religious work Is. then.
s54e, 100000. AS against this, the
total cost Of crime in the United
States for the year reached the In
credible total Of s1,076,605.s9. This
is to say, We spend more than $780,
100000 year more on crime than
We do on all spiritual. ecclesiastical.
physical, humanitarian. educational
and healing agencies put together.

Her husband called on Barclay
