Georgetown is an ancient place as
our history goes, named for hing
George and settled by Scotch Presby-
terians. English high churchmen and
GOOD number Of French Huguenots.
The city spreads around Winyah Bay
and is embowered in beautiful
spreading oaks draped in gray moss
and adorned with noble magnollas
whose large white blooms perfume
the air. At this season of the year
everything is charming while half
tropical atmosphere gives a sweet
languor to life

Breaking il Gently,

A southern planter, on his return
from an European trip, was met
at the railroad station by his old
darkey servant.
''Well, John" said the planter,
during the drive to his home, whats
happened since I've been away?"
''Jes' can't think o. nuthin'." re-
piled the darkey, after slowly
scrathing his head, "'ceptin' dat de
dogs daid.'
That's not very startling;
though I'm sorry. OF course. But he
was getting quite old. By the way,

REGENERATION.

A Hindu theosophist who is
now lecturing in Chicago says
that "instinctively some men and
women repel us" He explains it
by saying: I'VE are at loss 10
understand this until we realize
that we have known them in other
lives and that this antipathy is
the result OF indirect memory"
This explains the strong antipathy
which we at once felt toward the
Payne bill as soon as it came into
our presence. 1t is doubtless due
to the fact that.it is a reincarna-
tion of the McKinley bill and the
Dingley bill. But this does not
reconcile us to the doctrine of
acknowledgements.

The Presbyterian brethren in
session in Denver find much to
fear from the fact that the youth
of the land are being educated at
colleges that are not sectarian in
character. This constitutes their
chief virtue. Schools should be
free from religious tendency, tor
education is necessary. The Sec
tartan gentlemen may gun for the
youth after his brain is formed.
There is less danger of their idi-
otic ideas taking root, and if they
do it is not a case of deceiving

BAILEY TALKS RIGHT OUT IN MEETING.

The following press dispatch
was doubtless particularly graft
flying to those American citizens
who realize the extent of the law
lessness of the trust magnates;
Washington, D. c, May 13.-
Referring directly to the United
States Steel corporation, and
charging that organization with
violating the antitrust laws of
the country. Senator Bailey today
in addressing the senate on the
tariff bill, declared that if the
officers of the law do their duty
the steel trust would be dissolved,
and said that he expected event
ually to see this done. He added
that if the present administration
fails in its duty in that respect,
the people of the country would
choose other officials to represent
them,an he declared his firm be-
lief that the off GERS of the steel
corporation would be either inn
prisoned or made fugitives from
justice.
"Just put one of these male
factors of great wealth in the
penitentiary and you will see the
antitrust law enforced without
further violations" said Mr..
Bailey. "Send one of these men
who may be found violating either
the interstate commerce law or
the antitrust law to the peniten-
tiary and you will stop these vio-
lations by others. You cannot do
it with fines, because when a court
fines trust the trust fines the
people. and as long as the punish
ment is measured in dollars and
cents they will continue to violate
the law, Men will take the chance
of pecuniary loss in the hope of
realizing greater pecuniary gain.
Send one of them to the peniten-
tiary and it will work like magic.
THE millionaire" continued
Mr.. Bailey. who was receiving
the rapt attention of the senators
on both sides of the chamber,
values one thing more than his
fortune, and that is his liberty.
He does not love that peace OF
mind for which others struggle.
But he loves his liberty"
Mr.. Bailey said that he ex-
pected the United States Steel
corporation will be dissolved
Continuing, he said:
81 expect to see its officers i'm
prisoned or become fugitives from
justice. and men now. charged
with the administration of the
law fail 10 conform to their de-
mands. have an abiding faith
that the American people will
call into their service another set
of men from your party. The
stalwarts of today would become
the insurgents of that day and
the insurgents of this generation
would be the stalwarts of the next
generation. That is as certain AS
any event in the future can be"

Excellent Business Advice.

While in the establishment of
The McClenathan Mercantile Co.
the other day we saw the follow
ing typewriter notice pasted on
the interior of show case for the
observation of the patrons and
employees. 1t impressed US as
containing SO much of good ad-
vice and rules for conduct that
we copied it entire and herewith
reproduce it:
When a customer comes into this
store and makes a purchase, she
wants what she pays for and wants
1T right away.
Once in a while we hear OF some
one who doesn't trade with us any
more, because somebody, some way
failed to carry out our part OF the
contract.
Many customers do not go to the
trouble of telling the management
about such instances, they merely
say nothing, and go elsewhere to do
their buying.
In n store where several people are
employed it is impossible to have the
ideas OF the management carried out
to the letter. There is always some
pair OF hands, eyes, ears or feet that
fails to do its work properly. Some
one makes a hasty ill-timed, ill-tem-
pered remark, some one makes n
promise that deliveries will be made
or that work will be done at a GER
tain time. Wherever we fall in any
OF these respects, we lose the conf
dence OF, and therefore the patron
age OF the people through no fault
OF the management, but through
the fault of those who are being paid
to carry out the management'si ideas
OF correct business.
1t would make it very much easier
to adjust matters OF this kind II GUS
toners would come to me and tell
me the details.
1t does not mean the loss OF an
employees position to be reported by
n customer, 1t merely means that It
will give me an opportunity to show
the employe who has done the wrong
thing, the right way and so avoid a
repetition OF the same thing in the
future. II our customers knew the
high value placed 10y the manage
ment on things of this nature, and
the results we are able to obtain
through such Information. we, no
doubt. would hear from them Of
tener and lose fewer customers.
In every large store an almost un-
told amount Of business is Lost each
year. through the failnre OF its EN-
ploy es Mt some point In their trans
actions with customers. how much
can not be determined.
The smoothest working business
in the world Is one where everyone
concerned, does his or her part. thor
oughly, and believe no store In the
country has as little trouble in this
way as The J. V. McClenathan Mer-
camille Company.
But, we do have some and wish
to urge that each OF us keep n con
slant watch that rything we
have anything to do with Is carried
out to the utmost degree of perfec-
tion. j. V. MccLESATuAx

Fishermen Killed a Bio Shark.

Attacked by sharks while fishing
along the Delaware bay shore near
Lewes Del, John Marshall and Wal
ter Beach had a thrilling battle in
their open boat. and only succeeded in
killing the shark after it had grabbed
Beach's leg.
Marshall and Beach went out fish
ing with seines, and noticed. after
casting their nets. that there were a
number Of sharks in the water, and in
an effort to scare them off pushed
their boat into the midst Of the school.
Instead OF being frightened the
sharks attacked the boat. and one big
fellow became entangled in the nets.
Hoping to save it from being torn in
shreds, the two men hauled the net
in, and the shark fell over the rail
into the boat It grabbed Beach by
the leg but he quickly drew a knife
and cut the monsters throat.
Beach happened to have on two
pairs of heavy trousers. and the
sharks teeth produced only a slight
abrasion of the skin The big fellow
was towed on shore, where he was
found to measure over five feet in
length and weighed over one hundred
pounds.
