A 'Boiled' Dinner.

Mrs. Eldridgc's new hat had Just
arrived from New York. The brim
had the fashionable downward ten
dcnc!, thc ribbon was exquisite, and a
heavy wreath Of large, many hued
globular objects cnciclcd the pictures
que crown.
The feminine member Of the
household eyed it approvingly, but
could give no name to the botanical
portion Of the decorations. Mr.. Ed
ridge, however, regarded the creation
with mild disfavor.
81 can see, John,' said the owner
Of the hat, pinning it into place and
smiling at her husband, "that you
don't admire my hat. But why9 Ism u
it becoming?'
"It's bccomin" enough" returned
Mr. Eldridgc, examining it critically,
"and il seems TO be nice hat. in
spite Of all those onions, bects and
carrots: but you know, Sallie, / ncv-
er did like a boiled dinner. -

peace we can not indulge in Boston
tea parties, or live entirely within the
REELECTED halo of Moultrie and Sum-
ter, but 1t is something TO have the
only tea gardens in America; it is
more to be endeavoring by preccpt
and example to elevate the standard
OF our citizenship.
while South Carolina is, mfor-
tunalely, without Il building at this
exposition we are NOT homeless. When
the commission had to determine
whether it would invite the governor
OF South Carolina and the governor
Of North Carolina TO violate tie tradi-
tlon by clinkin% glasses of water. we
looked III but one direction. In his adj

Is a grandson. There we come to the
parting Of the ways with the great
Nebraskan. South Carolinians-in
Virginia-havc always held that
there is nothing in the world the
equal of the daughters Of Virginia,
and il is almost historic that in those
-FOUR years Of war more South Caro-
liza soldiers gave up their arms TO
Firginia's daughters than surrender
ed to the bluccoats. And it. is a South
Carolinian-in Virginia-that is us,-
ally next to the best thing in the
world, or thcrcabouts. So, seeking il
home in Virginia, we naturally
Knocked at The portals Of those but
little less than kin and much more
than kind, and the response Of Gov.
Swanson was just like Virginia. Thus
it happens that South Carolina will
be 'at homc' this evening in Virgin

"Ladies and gentlemen, / have
the honor to present as the highest

STATE ELECTIONS THIS FALL.

There are some politicians who
think that the results of the state
elections this fall will throw some
light upon the political drift in 1908.
Six states will elect governors next
November. They are Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, New Jersey, Mary
land, Kentucky and Mississippi. All
these states, except Massachusetts
and New Jersey, now have Demo
cratic governors. The Republican
plurality in Massachusetts last year
was 3O,233. The Democratic plural
ity in Rhode Island was 1918. AT
the last state election in New Jersey
that of 1o04-the Republicans had
a plurality of 51,644 In 1903 the
Democrats in Maryland elected their
governor by a plurality of 12,625,
but in 1904 Parker, for pres
ident, had a plurality OF only
81 Mckinley carried the state
by a plurality of 1924 in 1896 and OF
1891 in 1900. At the last state
election in Kentucky in 1903 the DEM
ocrats had a plurality of 26,250, and
in 1904 Parker's plurality for pres.
ident was 1888. Mckinley carried
the state in 1896 by a plurality of
PSI, and Bryan's plurality in 1900
was 1875.

This is a pretty big claim when you

Carrie Ashley Clarke, the author,

Wherever this popular drama has

mistakable proofs of appreciation 1t

joyable on account Of its situations
and the brilliancy and crispness of its

STEAMER HIGH ON ROCKS
Heavy Sea Has Gone Down and Not
I'm Immediate Danger.

HAVANA, Jan. %. - The British
steamer Arcola, which went OH the
rocks close to Moro castle shortly after
midnight, Is in no immediate danger,
as the heavy sea has gone down.
Captain Wry of the Arcola declares
that he twice asked the pilot just be-
fore the steamer went on the rocks
whether he had seen any lights and
the latter said he had not Continu-
ing, Captain Wry said:
1--WE were making the channel easily
and safely when we were struck on
the port side by an enormous wave,
which was followed by others in quick
succession. This listed the Arcola
from the channel. Her helm was put
hard down, but we failed to work
back into the channel. Then she
grated on the rocks. The engines were
reversed, but that did not improve the
situation. Every wave that hit the
vessel drove her harder on the rocks"
The Arcola is loaded with COAL She
is SO high and dry that the stevedores
are throwing her coal ashore.
