up the total of 38, 500 allowed by law,
although it is believed that Congress
will increase the number.

Jasper 9; Sequachee 3.

Dixon pitched a rafting good game
for Jasper last Saturday, and the locals
lost out. Morrison made his second
try as pitcher but was wild. Alex
ander did the star batting for Jasper,
hitting heavily. Three Whitwell play
ers assisted Sequachee, Shirley, Bur
CESS and Hixon, the latter relieving
Morrison in the seventh, after Jasper
had I runs. 1t was his first attempt at
pitching and he showed up well. A
little excitement was caused by deputy
sheriff Houts threatening to put under
arrest the scorer for the Jasper team,
who is alleged to have been making
some disrespectful remarks regarding
the parentage of the Sequachee play
ers. There was also the usual attempt
to misunderstood the ownership of
property. G. Robertson, of Jasper,
umpired the game, and no kick is
coming at his work which was good.

a FAvoRITE JAPANESE GAME.

A favorite game of the Japanese is
played as follows: One hundred well
known proverbs are selected, each
divided into two parts and each part
printed on a separate card The host
of the evening has the hundred first
halves, which he reads aloud, one
by one; the hundred second halves
are dealt to the other players. who
place their hands face upward on the
"tatami," or thick mat of the rice
straw on which they sit. AS the first
half of any proverb Is read, the
holder of the second half throws 1t out
or IL he sees it unnoticed among his
neigbhor's cards, seizes IT and gives
him one OF his own. The player who
is first OUT wins. 1t is a very
simple game, but 1t affords great en-
tertainment to the PLAYERS. for the
quick-slghted and keen-witted are con
stantly Selling the cards of their
duller and slower neighbors, and
this leads to much laughter and many
good natured sarcasms.-- Boys World.

Decent Voters in the Majority,

In every great city like Phila-
delphia there is large body of men
who for one reason of another are
practically bound up with the organ,
lied and generally ruling political
machine. Some of this force is cor
rupt, some of it has an interest moi
venal, but still personal and pecuni.
airy, and some of it simply goes along.
But strong as is this body it Is a de-
cided minority of the people. The
great majority are honest, well-mean
ing men who want good government
and who are personally in a position
to follow their own judgment They
may sometimes be misled they may
be Indifferent, but they are free to
act as their conscience may dictate.
1t is upon these upright and indie
pendent people that the hope of saw
ing the city from the rule of the con.
tractors now rests.--Philadelp

HOW FAST HlAwATHA RAN.

Determine how fast, asks Prot
Greenhill. Hiwatha can run from The
following data:
Strong of arm was Hiawataa;
He could shoot ten arrows upward
And the tenth had left the DOW
string
Ere the first to earth had fallen.
Swift of foot was Hiawatha;
He could shoot an arrow from him
And run forward with such swlftness
That the arrow fell behind him
Neglecting the resistance of the air
and granting that Hiawatha could
shoot one arrow a second, the solu-
ton is as follows:
The time of flight of the arrows
shot upward must have been nine
seconds. Therefore the velocity with
which they We're shot, being equal 10
the time multiplied into half the
value of the constant of gravity vas
LA feet a second.
NOW, In shooting an arrow from
him, Hiawatha, to obtain the further
fight, would let fly at an angle OF
40 degrees. and by a simple trigo-
nometrical calculation we therefore
arrive at the fact that the horizontal
velocity of the arrow would be rather
less than la feet secona, and
would in fact be 102 feet second
or 70 miles an hour. Hiawatha
would therefore have to run faster
than this. Could he do 1t on O
sprint?
Again having recourse to calcutta
ton we find that an arrow snot at
l44 feet a second would fly ZIG
yards, or nearly furlong. Hiawatha
would run that distance In about
seven seconds. so that he would be
able TO give the present holder Of
the record some 145 yards start.

the Evans dispensary act introduced
IN November. 1892. and it was prompt
y passed. Thus the state became
itself the only liquor-seller in the
state.
MT Tillman favored the dispensary
act because, he said, it destroyed pri-
vate profit by liquor-selling; it guar
anteed pure liquor and honest meas
ure; 1t stopped treating, cut OF even
ing sales and sales of credit and dis
associated liquor selling from gambl-
ng and other social evils. A year after
the passing of the law Governor Till
man was able to report profit of
$4,000 on business of s166, 900.
Such figures could only mean that
IL South Carolina it was "a long time
between drinks or that the law was
ignored. The latter was the fact. For
two years South Carolina was at war
over the act and no one will ever know
now many men were slain because OF
II. Charleston rose in open rebel
lion. The county judge of Darling
ton county declared the act unconsti-
tutional. Spies of the dispensary
killed and were killed. The state
dispensary was blown up in Columbia
in March. 1894 In April the people
OF darlington county drove the dis
pensary men into a swamp and hunt
ed them with rifles.
Tillman called out the militia.
Some of them refused to serve. Till
man retaliated by retiring them from
service, and some hundreds of loyal
militia put down the war" With the
decision of the state supreme court in
October. 1894. that the law was con-
stitutional armed and organized resis-
lance greatly lessened.
From that time the law has prob
ably been quite as strictly admins
tered as the prohibitory law in Yer
mont or Maine. That it has not &C,
complished the expected moral revo-
luton may be inferred from the
steady growth of the repeal seati-
ment.
Mr.. Tillman remained faithful to
the law even unto death; he made his
light upon it last fall and in more
than twenty public speeches praised
and defend it. Yet the same legislat-
ure that reelected him to the senate
has now repealed his favorite law, ana
an anti-Tillman governor will sign its
successor
No form of liquor law is satisfac-
