Farmer Dies Mysteriously.

Florence, June 20.-News has been
received in the city Of the death of
Madison Mathews and Mrs. Henry
Altman of the Cowards neighbor-
hood. Mr.. Mathews was we'll
known farmer, about Is years of age.
He died suddenly, and his death was
peculiar, in that he, nor his neigh
bors seem to be able to account for
it. He seemed to have been burned
about the head, but his mind was
weak and he could not explain it. He
had called on some neighbors Sun
day afternoon about IL o'clock, ap-
parently in good health but for the
seeming burns. He returned home,
and the neighbors went to look after
him at l o'clock and found him dead.
No one was at home with him. His
wife died some time ago, and his
children had all scattered to their
own homes.
Mrs. Altman died on the same
plantation as Mr.. Mathews about an
hour later. She had been sick about
two, weeks. She was about 2S years
of age.

Turning the Tables.

In Indianapolis they tell a story
on a certain attorney to explain why
he quit drinking 80 suddenly. He
had patronized one saloon with great
liberality for years. Lately the pro-
prietor of the place bought house
and lot and employed another lawyer
to examine the abstract for him. The
steady patron, when he heard 1T,
went after the saloon keeper rough
shod, demanding to know why busi-
ness favors weren't exchanged when
there was opportunity. Why did the
saloon keeper turn away from his
own customer and give business to
a man who never bought anything
of him-nor of any saloon keeper?
The saloon keeper was amazed at
the complaint, he thought the expla-
nation ought to plain enough: when
I've got business, he said with child
like frankness, Il want it done by a
sober lawyer" Suddenly the at
torney, too, concluded it was all plain
enough; his friends say he hasn't
touched liquor since.

No Sympathy Needed.

Recently woman of Kansas be-
came disgusted with the behavior of
her husband, who seems to have been
merely the average man possessed
with the weaknesses that belong to
the average member Of the race, and
inserted the following advertisement
in one of the daily papers:
"WANTED-An affinity to claim
my husband if anyone wants him.
He grumbles at his meals, puts his
feet on the parlor chairs and his
head on the parlor cushions, brings
visitors to the house and meal with
out letting me know in advance so I
can have enough cooked for them,
and when I ask for Xmas money he
wants to know what am going to do
with it. If any woman can see her
affinity in him wish she would come
and prove property and take him
away"
We do not sympathize with this
Kansas woman with her complaints,
as we regard her as responsible, in
large measure, for the shortcomings
of the husband. In the first place,
if the husband had not been some
what forehanded there would have
been no parlor chairs and nothing
in the house to cook for the visitors
and with about six hungry children
hanging to her skirt, she would hang
to that man closer than a cucklebur
to a mules tail, and if she saw any
one talking toher husband in a mystic
rious manner, she would sail into the
raven locks of the would-be affinity
like swapping turtle on a Junebug.
That woman has had too much
prosperity. The faults described are
grave ones, but such that any true
woman can by a little finesse cor
rect in one week.
Sidle up to him, madam, and
tickle him under the chin with a
toothpick, get him by the ear and
kiss him as you used to do when you
sat on the lawn chair in the gloam-
ing. Feed him two or three days
and pet the brute. He will shave
twice a day, keep his feet on the
floor, lie with his head on the wooden
block, if necessary, and you could not
get him to look at an affinity if you
tried.
Go into the affinity business your
self and you will make your old par
lor shine like a crystal palace if
there is only one chair in it and the
stove stands coddled on three legs
