1t was after Lord Byron arrived in
Greece that he wrote that beautiful
poem THE Bride of Abydos" and that
exquisite song the Maid of Athens"

every Englishman Of culture knows by
heart Documents enable us to estab-
Iish the true identity of the heroine
OF this poem. She was one of the
three daughters of Mr.. Black, English
vice consul at Athens, at whose house
Byron for some time lived. After the
departure of the poet Theresa Black
married an archaeologist, NJ. Pittakis,
whose widow she became several
years later. Her beauty, her charm,
her elegance, conquered every heart
including Byron's. In 1873 the hero
inc of the poet was an old woman of
upright figure and still showing signs
of her former beauty With age had

MEMS TOURNAMENT.
The Election Is Over and the Conn
mittee Has Begun to Raise Rund.

The matter of providing for the
flremens Tournament, which is to
be held here in June was undertaken
by the Chamber of Commerce at its
recent meeting. An active committee
on finances was appointed and now
that committee has begun to raise
tho fund necessary. 1t will take be-
tween $1,000 and s2,5OO to entertain
the fremen as they should be enter
talned. 1t is something of a lob to
raise this amount. but Sumter has al
ways maintained a reputation for do
ing things right. If it is done in
Sumter it is done right.
The convention Of the fire fighters
OF the State in our midst is an event
OF some Importance. 1t will be an
advertisement for the CITY. If II no
done In the proper manner the adj
Nertisement will be good, but if it is
not, Sumter will suffer in the future
for it.
When the committee comes to YOU
give them all the announcement Won
can. Now. do not forget that en-
couragement does not come from
words and half promises alone. The
greatest announcement comes from
deeds rightly done.
1t has been suggested that bicvcle
races be held at the same time. This
could be done very well, for the fire
parades and races will not take all
the time.

LAWYERS PHONEY FEE.
Bank Cashier and Treasurer Experts
Took 1t.

a noted lawyer of one of the South
ern States, famous not only for his
brilliant mind AMI legal ability, but
also for his rigid code of honesty,
used to tell this story on himself, says
The New York Herald.
Soon after the civil war the judge
was called on to defend a man ac-
cused of passing counterfeit money.
The old lawyer after Investigating the
matter and satisfying himself that the
man was innocent of any intent to do
wrong and had only paid out money
which he had received in gooo faith
undertook the case. When the case
came up for trial the jury was so i'm
pressed by Judge IS plea for his
client and his explanation Of the cir
cumstances that a verdict of not gull
ty was rendered without delay.
The acquitted man was very grate-
full to Judge -, and after thank
ing him profusely for getting him out
of the ugly scrape, said
Judge, I'll never forget what
you've done for me, and some day
hope to be able to prove lay gratitude;
but the only thing 1 can do now is to
pay your fee, and I'll pay whatever
you ask. How much it is?"
We'll, 1 think about $1,000 will be
fair" replied the judge.
That's fair enough, sir" agreed the
client, but, judge the only money
I've got is the same kind of money
that 1 have been prosecuted for
spending. Some of that money is
good and some of it is the counterfeit
that was worked off on me, and
don't know t'other from which. Now,
L will pay you $1,5OO in the bills that
I have got and you do the best you
can with it,
AS there seemed nothing else to do,
the judge agreed to this, and the
client paid him $500 in bills and left
him.
The judge took the $3.50 to his
bank and explained the circu instances
to the cashier and asked him to take
out the bills which he as an expert
pronounced good. The cashier did
so, and the judge deposited the ac-
eepted bills to his credit, and then
taking the package of doubtful money
to another bank he made the same
explanation and request Of the CASH
Ter, the bank receiving on deposit the
money, which as experts, they pro-
nounced good.
And do you know" said the Judge,
after 1 had visited six banks I had
got rid of all the money except five
$50 bills, which all the banks had
agreed were counterfeit, and my fee
in the case instead of being the ST.
900 which l originally charged the
man netted me s1,4OO, and I've al
ways had suspicion that if there had
been a few more experts in the town
l would have got rid of those last five
$50 bills"
What became of the five bad 2Os?"
some one asked the judge.
I'm not sure" replied the old law
yer my wife asked me for them
and shortly afterward she made a
trip to Washington. When she re-
turned she showed me a brand new
hundred dollar bill, which she said
she had got at the United States treas
ury-but 1 never asked her any ques-
tions. 1 knew the Treasury Depart
ment had experts. too"

Mysterious COncOctiOn Defics Inycsti-
cation of Scientists.

Curari, the vegetable poison with
which the Indians of the Upper ANA
Zon tip their hunting arrows, remains
a mystery in it's composition after 100
years of investigation by scientists.
Inc Indians will sell it for it's weight
IN silver, but will not reveal the plants
from which it is derived Not long
ago a professor in German univer-
sity was sent to the Amazon wilder
ness Tor the express purpose of dis
covtring the secret, for curari or urari.
as II Is otherwise called is now thought
to be of great value in medicine. The
professor lived two years in Indian
villages, and while he was permitted
to witness the boiling Of the witches

could not tell what plants went into
the brew. Returning from his baffled
quest down the Amazon with a guam
tlty of the poison, the professor was
met by another traveller, Dewey Aus
tin Cobb, who had got possession of
a native blow gun. The latter tells
how he put some of the professors

rows, which are like toothpicks
feathered with cotton, and tried it
on buck deer in the forest.

use such a word for the little puff,
scarcely heard by us, and entirely
inaudible above the rustling corn
leaves at the distance of the deer.
The animal gave a slight start as II
felt the prick of the arrow on it's
flank and turned partly around, sniff
hng the air for a scent, and looking
about as if searching for the insect
that had bitten or stung it. Detect
ing nothing, it stood still and un-
alarmed. At the end of a minute, or
minute and half. at most, it's head
dropped little. as if it was sleepy.
when the hunter saw this he
arose and stepped out in plain sight
The deer turned his head and looked
at him and moved forward, not away
