WORTH READING,

In all the Baking Powder War" that
have been intermittently waged IN the
last twenty years, there is one point
that has been over looked by the belli-
gerent makers of these goods. Rival
manufacturers have contented them
selves with accusing their competitors
of making an unwholesome product.
The question of keeping quality, and
therefore efficiency in raising bread the
only purpose for which baking powder is
used, appears to have been generally
ignored, There are many powders
which, when fresh, and the can is first
uncovered, will do fairly good work, but
after standing for some time on the pan
try shelf the powder becomes so weak as
TO be almost worthless so far as raising
bread is concerned This is especially
true in case of so called Straight Phosp.
l;..o" powders. The unsuccessful at
tempts TO overcome this fault Of the
Straight Phosphate have enlisted the
services of more chemists and cost more
money than the solution of any other
problem connected with the raising of
bread. Why buy or experiment at your
own expense with these Straight Phosp-
hate powders when it is fact that they
will not fulfill the object for which they
are purchased. The housewife to whom
economy is an object will avoid these
Straight Phosphate powders.

Florence. June Especial 1.-THE
greatest evils endured by this section
during and Immediately after the war
between the States were inflicted py
the tories, who professed to sympatnize
with the union cause but In reality USED
this only as a pretext for robbery ana
the murder of defenseless. men, women
and children.
Scarcely a night passed but the dark
ness concealed some murder and no
man, especially If he possessed any
thing to tempt the cupidity OF the
robbers. but felt when he went to
sleep that he might not live to see
the morning light
The leaders in this pirate band were
John Campbell and Charlie oliver. two
young men who had grown up IN
FLORENCE and attended the city schools
and the First Presbyterian Sunday
school. The mother of Campbell was
a widow of refinement and education
and a woman of great piety who main
tanned herself and her children by
keeping a tavern on Court street on
the spot where a large drygoods. house
now stands, it being the only hotel
In the town at that time. divers
vicious tendencies were inherited from
parents of low origin who were pro-
fessed tories.
Murder of Mr.. Wilson.
One of the most revolving crimes
ever committed and the one that has
tened the capture and execution or
Campbell and Oliver was the murder
of John Wilson. an aged man of ninety
at his home six miles east of Florence,
where st. Flofian now stands.
Mr.. Wilson was a native Virginian and
a gentleman of the old school His
swife and only child had died many
years previously and he was living
with Harvey Wilson, a nephew and
Turner Foster, a young grandson
seventeen years of age.
Mr.. Wilson had just sold his large
cotton crop and for safe keeping his
eldest grandson who was away from
home. had taken the money to a spot
near the Tennessee river and buried
one night in the fall OF 1864 the
