Levers Joy Short Lived.
In Mr. Tillman's vote, it can be
stated generally that Mr.. Lever sees
justification for the action of him.
self and those of his colleagues who
voted for protected lumber in the
house. though Mr.. Tillman's explana-
ton will probably disappoint him.
Perhaps Mr.. Lever finds additional
justification in the fact that Senator
Bailey not only voted for protected
lumber-on the grounds of Feve-
nue., to be sure-but spoke for it.
But in speaking of Grover Cleveland
and in spite of his wordy declaration
of respect for the last Democratic
president in the abstract, he left
the defense to Senator Aldrich. Be-
sides, Senator Bailey has been play
ing so close to Senator Aldrich and
the Republicans through all this
fight that his support must be graded
below par, from a Democratic view
point.

The Arkansas river is out of bank

In both States crops are said to
have been almost totally destroyed
while numbers of towns are under
water and families have been driven
to the roofs of their homes and the
only means. of transit is by boat. 5
Great damage was done to the
railroads and in several places trains
are tied up.
A tornado passed over the north

BEING WATCHED
BECAUSE HE THREATENED DIR.
BABCOCK's LIFE.
For Pronouncing Him Dangerously
Insane While They Were Both
in France.
For Pronouncing Him Dangerously

The Columbia Record says SEN
sational and partially inaccurate
story is published in Wednesdays
issue of the Augusta Chronicle to
the effect that the State Hospital
for the insane is being guarded by
the Columbia police in order to
protect the superintendent, DR.. Bah
cock. from personal violence at the
hands of young physician, who
was formerly in the United States
navy.
The story has a foundation in the
fact that the life of DR.. Babcock is
said to have been threatened by this
young physician, who has for sew
eral days been under the surveillance
of the Columbia police, but there
has been no extraordinary precau-
ton taken to guard the State Hos
pital for the Insane, and DR.. Bah
cock has gone about his usual duties
both inside and outside of the
grounds, without any fear or inter-
ruption.
1t will be remembered that last
summer this physician, who was for
several years a surgeon in the navy,
was placed in confinement in Paris
and committed to French asylum
for the insane. 1t happened that DR..
Babcock and Senator Tillman were
in France at the time and they in
terested themselves in the young
mans behalf. At the request of the
American consul, DR.. Babcock exam
ined the surgeon and regretfully
made a report that the surgeon was
dangerously insane and should not
be released.
Later the friends of the surgeon
brought him to this country and he
has since been at his former homo
il the upper portion of South Car
olina. 1t is said that he now pro-
poses to bring suit against the
French government for his confine-
ment and that the certificate given
the American consul by DR.. Babcock
is considered by the surgeon to be
a barrier in the prosecution of his
case He is, of course, no longer
in the naval service.
When he came to Columbia some
days ago and it was learned that he
had made threats against DR.. Bah
cock, the friends of DR.. Babcocks who
instructed the patrolman on the asy-
lum beat to keep a watch out for the
surgeon, and that is the extent to
which the asylum has been guard
ed by the police, and the story pub
lished in the Augusta Chronicle has
this much foundation in fact.

TERMINATES IN TRAGEDY.
Two Brothers Shot by Foes in North
Carolina.

Arthur and Andy Franklin were
shot to death Monday night in Laurel
township, a remote section of Madi-
son county, N. c., in four-cornered
duel, in which the Franklins were
arrayed against the Tweed brothers.
Robert Tweed and Arthur Franklin
met at the store of Arthur Frank
lin, and resuming the quarrel sew
eral days old, both opened fire.
And Franklin endeavored TO stop
the fight, but Major Tweed interfer-
ed, and both drawing pistols the fight
became general And Franklin was
instantly killed; Arthur Franklin
died later of his wounds and Major
Tweed received a serious wound in
the thigh. Beverly Stanton, by
stander, was shot in the thigh. No
arrests have been made. The parties
concerned were among the best citi-
Zens of the county.

STRANGE DISEASE
OF PELLAGRA TO BE DISCUSSED
By CAROLINIANS.
Drs. Babcock and Williams Asked
to Address Scientists on the
Deadly MaladY.

The Columbia Record says paper
upon pellagra is being prepared
jointly by Dr. j. w. Babcock and
DR.. C. f. Williams and will be read
next week by DR.. Babcock at the
meeting of the Asylum Physicians as
sociation at Atlantic City, and by DR..
Williams at the meeting of the State
boards of health in Washington.
This paper will give the statistical
and geographical history OF pellagra
in this country. 1t has been found
that the disease exists not only in
South Carolina, but in Pennsylvania,
Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Alabama Mississip-
pie Louisiana and Tennessee, with
isolated cases in New York, Texas
and Arkansas.
1t is estimated that not less than
1,053 cases have been recognized in
his country, and Dr. Lavinder, OF
the United States marine hospital
service, who is now in Columbia
with headquarters at the State hos
pital service, estimate mat there
have been 1,5O0 cases in the South
ern States in the last two years.
The paper being prepared by Drs.
Babcock and Williams will give n
thorough review of the Investigations
concerning this disease in the South.
DR.. Babcock, superintendent of the
State Hospital for the insane, leaves
early next week for Atlantic City to
attend the meeting of the asylum
physicians, and DR.. Williams, State
health officer, leaves about the same
time for the meeting IN Washing
ton of the State boards of health.
