SENATOR TILLMAN AT ATLANTA
He Will Be Treated for Nervous
Breakdown by Experts.

Senator B. R. Tillman of South
Carolina reached Atlanta at 9 o'clock
Tuesday morning accompanied by his
wife, and went at once to the Rob-
ertson sanitarium on Capitol avenue,
where he will remain for several
weeks, possibly month, after which
it is his intention to go abroad.
A dispatch to The State from At
lauta says Senator Tillman came here
for treatment for nervous breakdown,
the result of overwork. While his
present condition is not serious, it is
such, it is stated at the sanitarium.
that it might take a serious turn at
any time. A reporter who called al
the sanitarium and asked to see the
senator received word from him that
he was not feeling we'll enough to talk
now, and suggested that he return
later in the week. While he is off
but little in weight, he is exceedingly
feeble and has little of his customary
animation.
He had reached the point where a
collapse was liable almost at any mo-
ment and he determined to prevent
it If possible. While his present COM
plant is nothing more than nervou:
breakdown, it is said his main object
in taking prolonged rest is to pre-
vent threatened attack Of paralysis,
indicated by the almost numbness of
his left arm and pain in his left
side. While it can not be- definitely
stated now, the belief seems to be
that he has taken hold of the matter
in time and that his recovery will be
effected.

WAS KNOCKED DOWN
And Done Up Pretty Badly by Some
Young Men.

Mr.. .. S. Wilson claims that while
passing through the store recently oc-
cupied by ]. C. Pike G Co., which is
now being repaired, to his backward,
he was set on and badly beaten by
three young white men who were in
the back of the store, on last Tuesday
night. Wilson was pretty badly used
UP and he has been confined 70 his
bed since the affray. He gave the
names of three young white men as
his assailants and they have been ar
rested. They were before the Mayor
on Wednesday morning, but Wilson
could not be present on account of
his bunged up condition and the ease
was postponed. Wilson claims that
his assailants went through his pocl,-
cts, but as he had nothing they got
nothing.
The affair has caused some talk,
but no one who We have heard ex-
press an opinion, believes for one
MluulG ludl IlS ODJCSI vi SlS SAooco oiS
was robbery. 1t is believed that If
the case is pushed by Wilson, that
there will be some rich and racy
facts brought out in the case, and
many believe that it will be dropped
on that account Be that as it may,
there seems to be very little SYM
Dahy for wilson on the part nf most
people with whom We have conversed
with about the alleged assault. What
Wilson intends to do about it is not
known, as he is still confined to his
room. If the case is like he claims
it is he should push it to the bitter
end, but if it is like many people
think it SIS he had better not.
The three young gentlemen arrest
ed are respectable and well thought
of. They, of course, Indignantly deny
Wilson's charge, and say they are
ready at any time to face him. 1t
is really one of the most MYSTERIOUS
affairs that has ever happened in this
city, anil it is doubtful if it is ever
cleared up. Just what caused the
assault on Wilson is the question. as
no one believes robbery was the OBJ
ject. Many think that Wilson knows
what caused the assault, and If he
does he should tell it to all and let
the cat out of the bag. In the mean
time most people have about decided
for themselves what caused it, but
then they might be mistaken. So
let us await the facts, which will be
brought out at the trial, if it ever is
held.

Amount of cotton made, four bales;

cotton seed, 1900 pounds.
The Editor of the Cultivator. in
commenting on the above figures says
1--WE often see estimates of growing
cotton; but we have never seen
full itemized statement Of the Whole
expense from January to January. or
course it would beb a difficult account
to keep. There are so many inciden-
tails and indirect expenses. But two
things stand out; farmer must make
a bale per acre to make any money,
and second, he should have other
crops and some form Of livestock to
profitably employ his time when not
engaged in working his cotton, If he
desires to prosper. 1t would certain
ly take the seed, even at S1.OO per
hundred to pay interest on land and
taxes. So we would have Mr.. Woot-
ems cotton to cost him about 9 II
cents. We are satisfied this is a
fair estimate of the cost of the crop

else was high

BOWMAN NOTES.
What Is Going On in That Sec

Bowman, April Sth. Special: AS
one travels the highways from day
to day, a feature is the energy and
push that is being demonstrated here
and there by the farmers rushing
work preparatory for a finishing up
of the planting season. Some fields
of corn are up nicely, some are just
being planted whine there are others
still implanted. This is largely due
to the excessive moisture still remain
ing in the soil from lack of neces-
sary drainage.
There seems to be some lack OF
interest in the making Of this grain
crop compared with former years.
There are exceptional instances
where farmers pride themselves
in the planting and cultivation OF this
crop making an abundant supply for
home consumption with some to
spare. A casual observer as he rides
the the highways will note at glance
the thorough preparation and cultl-
vation as practiced by some OF the
farmers of this section. The first and
foremost act standing out as beacon
light is good drainage and this is al
ways exemplified on all well reguiat-
ed farms.
There appears to be no disposition
among farmers to curtail the usual
acreage of the cotton crop, the ma
iority seem bent OF planting and cul-
tiyating every acre possible, at the
expense of some of the other more
important crops.
The rush in hauling fertilizers is on
the ebb at last and the train are not
so heavily loaded as usual Manager
!. l.. Shuler, of the B. & b. r. K,
proposes to discontinue the after
noon train until further notice, after
the 18th of this month.
A committee Of Pythians consist
ing of E. N. Mittle, B. o. Evans and
S. H. Fair was appointed by Bowman
Lodge to make the necessary prepara-
tions for the District Conference to
be held here in August next. This
committee has already taken the ini-
tiary steps in the matter and will use
every diligence to try and make this
Pythian meeting a success.
B. o. Evans and w. c. Wise have
been elected delegates to the Grand
Lodge to meet at Aiken on the 26th
of May.
Miss Ethel M. Evans with Miss
Starr Sain as alternate have been
elected to represent Wightman Ep-
worth Lague at the State Convention
in Darlington next week.
Misses Maude Shuler and Rosa
Arant will represent Shiloh Church.
The Epworth League at this place
was organized some years ago and is
numerically quite strong. Miss Paul
inc Dukes will also attend as Wis
itor.
The Dramatic Club of Bowman will
present an interesting play on Fri
day evening entitled "Josiah's Court
ship" This play has been i'll prem

doubt be appreciated by all who go

CATARRH IS CURABLE.
Successful Experiments in Abating
and Curing This Disease.


Catarrh is an entirely unnecessary
disease and should not be tolerated
for single day now that Hyomei
is so generally known and has made
SO many cures in Darn geburg and
other towns.
Modern science has disproved the
old theory that catarrh was blood
disease. 1t is a germ trouble, and
the remedy is Hyomei, which medi-
Gates the air you breathe, killing all
catarrhal germs.
AS there is life and health in the
air of the pine forests, filled with
fragrant and healing balsams, so
there is life and health in breathing
Hyomei.
So sure is this prescription to cure
even the worst cases of catarrh, that

that is claimed for 1t.

"To Waterford fair, your honor"

"And how much do you expect to get

he asked.

BILLBOARD, CHAT.
Method of Advertising That Will
Prove Unprofitable.

The time will come when the bill
board as an advertising medium VIII
cease to exist, for the keen business
men will not persist in keeping up any
sort of advertising that Is odiouS to
any considerable part of the public.
Advertising Of all kinds is merely lnVi-
tations, and IL the invitation to buy
certain goods or at certain house IS
extended in an offensive manner no
good can result, but rather will the ad-
vertiser be injured There are many
who, like himself, refuse to buy OF any
house or line of goods offered for sale
by this odous method, says writer In
the Los Angeles Times. This loss add
ed to the cost Of advertising certainly
brings the total expense up to point
dangerously near the mere swapping
Of dollars--certainly not profitable
occupation.
That billboards are a nuisance ana
more or less Objectionable to ma
jority of our people Is conceded by
nearly all and maintained by many
with argument quite conclusive. Inns
being so it needs but q fuller express
sion Of disapproval on the part of the
public to cause the business to wane
and eventually to die. If any billboard
proves Objectionable to you, make 1t
known. 1t is doubtless dnubly so to
some one else, and if we all york to-
ward the abatement OF pnh.r mi
sances in a cooperative way W. >h'!l
gradually approach the idr.l .'t';i.'.'ri
of citizenship and public cleanliness.
beauty and comfort. The most e..sc-
tive weapon against the billboard nu.-
sance is healthy public opinion, and
this will come only through education
Adjustment will come only through
public demand, and the way to educate
the people is to keep before them the
fact that billboards are somewhat OBJ
jectionable to all, very much so to
many and almost intolerable in few.
Plenty Of agitation will finally cause
those who advertise by this method
most freely to doubt its popularity and
therefore it's value. When this doubt
becomes universal, the billboard will
slowly but surely fade from the land
scape.
Goods should sell upon their merits.
and a reasonable amount Of newspaper
advertising would keep their name,
price and source Of supply before the
public. The biggest frauds ever thrust
upon confding public have been ex-
plotted by the billboard proclamation
method, and where do they so when
all this brazen publicity ceases? But
q year or so since the whole country
blazed with "Over the fence went hap
py Joe; CUFF was the food that made
him CO." But who eats "guff" today
and where can it be purchased? When
any article is advertised by such a
sensational and questionable method 1t
Is safe to presume that 1t lacks the
merit which Is ever conducive to a
constantly growing demand. In ad-
dltion to this fact, remember that bill
board advertising Is the most costly OF
all the various classes and that pur-
chasers of the goods must pay for it in
order that the wares may be sold at a
profit. Let us be fair, but keep up the
fight increasingly, and in the end we
shall surely win.
