Very Sympathetic.

The manager of a shop IN Lewes
stood In the doorway the other day
when man with wooden leg and u
crutch came along and said:
Il want you to do me a favor l
want to leave my leg with you for a
few minutes and go around 10 the next
street and work a house for half a
crown. I've an idea that the folks are
very sympathetic. If 80 with one leg I
am sure OF It,"
Very we'll" said the shopkeeper
"Just leave your leg here. and I'll take
care of It,"
The wooden substitute was unstrap-
ped and handed over. and the cripple
used the crutch to help himself down
the alley,
Five minutes later he rang the door
bell Of house in the next street, to
have II opened by the man he had just
seen.
"Wh-wh-whatr' he gaspea.
very sympathetic family lives
here" quietly replied the other "You
seem to have met with sad loss, and
I'm anxious TO help you, Here is =
wooden leg which may fit you"
The leg was handed over. The man
sat down on the steps and strapped II
on, and as he got up and stumped
through the gate he said TO himself:
tive heard OF condolences since !

enc that ever bit me with both fset AZ

a kaffir and : aantlnn.


Just as a Katlir Is slow in locating
pain which Is being experienced in his
own body, so is he slow in imagining
what others are suffering. A grownup
Kafiir related, says Dudley Kidd In
Savage Childhood" that when he was
a child his father threatened him with
a beating If he did something or other
The child was puzzled as to what
sort of thing beating might be, for,
although he Ind often seen his bigger
brothers beaten, his Imagination was
unable to work on the sight and recon
struct the experience of these others
into terms of his own senses.
When his father threatened him,
therefore. he simply laughed, for he
had not the remotest idea Of how
beating really felt It took very
short time for the young gentleman to
extend the boundaries of his knowl-
edge.
Swift retrlbutlon followed the un-
pardonable sin of showing disrespect
to his father. As the children go about
entirely bare, there was no delay for
preparation The father took stick
and applied II vigorously, according to
directions" and with entire success.
when the tears and smartlng were
over" said the Kaffir In his old age, II
sat down and thought it over WELL
| said to myself, now | know what
father means by beating l don't
know what is the reason Of II; but.
anyhow, know what sort of a thing
a beating Is often laugh when /
think how stupid was before that"

has proved one Of the sensational sur

Their great victories have placed the
aborigines among the leaders in the

Of eyes and deal Of wondering where
the sun dancers would stop. Their
strong showing against Princeton was
to be expected after defeating the

Their defeat of the Wanted Harvard

for the Cambrldgeites at that time
were high in favor as championship

A Record-Ereaking Success.

With the prestige of having
broken. all records for theatrical busi-
ness, both in the large cities and
''on the road" "The Clansman
comes to the Folk opera house on
Monday evening, October 18th.
Everywhere s'The Clansman" has
stood out distinctively from other
plays. For example, it's success in
Chicago eclipsed anything that had
gone before. The critics received it
with acclaim, and the best evidence
of it's popularity was the long list OF
ticket buyers, which, reaching as it
did, for many blocks, was so unusual,
that every newspaper in Chicago
commented on the fact. What hap
pened in Chicago was but duplicate
Of "The Clansman's' extraordinary
vogue in New York, Washington,
Baltimore, st. Louis, Kansas City,
and other great towns. Both COM
pany and production are identical
with the original ones in the East.
In the company are such sterling
actors as Arthur Dewey, Evelyn Fab
er. Abner H. Summons, Edward B.
McGuinness, NJ. A. Carpenter, Irving
l.. Quimby, Joseph R. Garry, John
F. Carleton, Jas. R. Lorraine, Will
liam Lewis, James o. Sanders, Will
lard Tracy Flanagan, George Lester
Woods and Jessamine Woods. The
dashing Ku Klux Klan cavalry of uni
formed mounted men and horses
forms one of the most thrilling
features of the show.

Branch Office Established.

The law firm of Hendersons, COM
posed of Messrs. D. S., E. P, and 2.
F. Henderson, has established a
branch law Office in Bamberg, which
is in charge of Mr.. E. Henry Hender-
son. The Office has already been
opened and is now doing business.
Mr.. Henry Henderson Is a young at
torney of ability, and we predict that
he will not be long in making him
self widely known in the legal fra
ternity.
He is the son of Mr.. E. P. Hender-
son, was born and raised in Aiken,
and received his early training at the
Aiken Institute. He entered David
son college, and graduated from that
school with high distinction and then
entered the law school of the Univer-
sity of South Carolina, where he
graduated with the highest honors.
He has had considerable experience
in the law offices of Hendersons and
goes to Bamberg we'll equipped to
take charge of the new firm. All
business will be transacted in the
Bamberg Office through the firm
name of Hendersons, which in itself
is quite distinguished trust to be
reposed in a young attorney.-Aiken

SITES TO BE INSPECTED.
Government Agent to be Sent to
Towns that will Get Buildings.

WASHINGTON, September 22.-The
News and Courier correspondent was
informed by the supervising architect
of the treasury to-day that soEae time
between the 10th of October and the
lst of November an agent of the
treasury would be sent to South Caro-
lima to inspect and report upon the
acceptance of sites for public build
ings, proposals for which were opened
in July.
At the last session of Congress ap-
propriations were made with which
to purchase sites in Abbeville, New
berry, Laurens, Union, Gaffney, Dar-
lington and Orangeburg; and, as just
stated, proposals were opened early
in the summer.
1t is the custom of the treasury de-
partment to send out its agent to
make a personal inspection of the
sites that have been offered for sale
to the Government. The bids that
are sent in are only the preliminary
steps by which the Government is
guided in the purchases it subse-
quently makes.
It was stated to-day that such ac-
ton would have been taken earlier
but for the fact that Secretary Cor
telyou has been away on his summer
vacation and that such matters are
always given his individual attention.
The sending of the agents to South
Carolina at this time is very impor-
tant matter. AS soon as the loca-
tions for the different buildings that
are to be constructed are decided up
on the big force Of men in the super
vising architects Office will begin the
plans for the buildings, and inside OF
q year and half or two years the
towns in South Carolina just named
will have first-class Federal buildings
