NEGRO SAVES WHITE LAD.
Performed Heroic Act in Face of
Great Danger.

Spartanburg, May 2S.--Reynolds
Smith, the 10-year-old son of Elmore
Smith, of this city, owes his life to
sBoyce Lindsay, 16-year-old negro
delivery boy. The negro displayed
great nerve and presence of mind.
Young Smith was riding bicycle
and did not see three empty box cars,
which had been cut loose from the
remainder of the train, and were
running at a pretty fast clip around
a curve. The engine was going the
other way and the cars were making
practically no noise. Reynolds
Smith, when in the very centre of
the track, saw the cars and lost all
control of himself, he was so fright
ened. He fell on the track and could
not get out of the way before the
cars would have hit him.
At this time, according to what
eye-witnesses say, the cars were ten
feet away. Boyce Lindsay was
standing nearby with -four and sugar
on his shoulders, when he realized
the seriousness Of the situation. His
burden was thrown aside and he
went to the assistance of the white
boy. Just in the nick Of time he
reached him and pulled the youth
from the tracks. A second later the
cars would have killed him, they
were not three feet away. The bicy-
Gle was torn to pieces. Several other
persons were standing nearby and
none but the negro made any attempt
to save the lad.
Mr.. Smith and his son feel deeply
grateful to the negro, who himself
can never realize what a heroic deed
he performed. A movement is on
foot here to get a Carnegie medal
for this boy.

The Baby Razor.

A man with reputation for or1-
ginality was accustomed to shaving
himself. He used a different razor
each day in the week, and named
then his Monday razor, his Tuesday
razor and so on. Ultimately he mar
ried and when the babies began to
arrive in numbers he changed the
names of his razors to Helen, Susan,
Tommie and so on down tho list,
Finally little one came and he had
no razor left.
In his perplexity he had a happy
thought. He decided to buy a finish
ing razor to use only on state occa-
sions and he would name it for the
baby.
He bought the razor, but they had
not named the new baby, and he
simply called it his Baby razor. One
day he wanted it and sent one OF his
children down stairs after it, saying:
''Tommie. get Papa his Baby razor
Tommie rushed down stairs and
cried: "Oh Mamma, Papa wants
you.

Timely Succor.

An itinerant Methodist minister
In the Tennessee mountains, was be-
loved BY his people, and they decided
to make him gift of money. The
deacons collecting, reported on the
Saturday before the Sunday on
which the gift was to be presented,
that they had fifty dollars for the
pastor, a munifcent sum in that poor
community. They were congratulate
Ing each other, when up came an
other deacon and announced that
the preachers wife had presented
him with fine baby boy. They
were all rejoiced, and one of the
deacons wagered that the minister
would speak OF the baby first in his
sermon the next day. There was an
immediate division in the forces, one
faction maintaining that he would
speak Of the great gift first, and the
other that it would be the boy.
The controversy took the form OF
a wager and they lined up the next
morning on the front seats waiting
anxiously for the minister to speak.
The preacher came out upon the
platform and at once began to pray,
saying: ooh, Lord, we thank thee
for this timely succOr."
It was decided that it was draw

Abbeville, May 27.-Abbeville is
to have another cotton mill. J. Allen
Smith, President of the National
Bank of Abbeville, will be the presi-
dent. "A subscription list of $4,000
has been raised and turned over to
Mr.. Smith.
A charter was applied for today.
Options on various sites have been
secured and the mill owned and con-
trolled by Abbeville money is a Ger
tainty.
Mr. Smith is one of the wealthiest
as we'll as one Of the best business
men in Abbeville County; he has

new life now that such an enterprise
Is assured.

with clear conscience and steady
hopes the regular session came to a
happy close. For we were sure that
Governor Hampton in his little Sec
ond story executive Office on Main
Street, meagerly furnished with not
over three dollars worth of chairs
and table, was and would be master
of the situation. He had said so,
and with DR.. Girardeau's sermon as
surance added every doubt was
dead.
When the Legislature met in spe-
cial session in the Spring of 1877,
under the call of Governor Hampton,
Columbia looked like a city politi-
cally swept and garnished. The Re-
publican State officials had disap-
peared and their Democratic success
sors were secure in their seats.
But there was much and serious
work to be done by the Legislature.
One of the first and most important
of the duties of the House was a
needed inquiry into the legality of
the titles of quite a number of those
who had been given certification OF
election after the battle of the bal
lots at the polls the previous No
vember. The findings were against
quite a number and they lost their
seats. Their places were filled by
others in due form and time, and
the House REINFORCED most material
ly by the coming in Of some Of the
already most distinguished Carroll
mans of that time, and others who
afterward became eminent to the po-
litical arena. Among the new men,
bers welcomed were these: From
Charleston-C. G. Memminger, form
er Confederate States Secretary Of
the Treasury, Charles H. Simonton
and William H. Brawley, afterward
United States Judge, R. Barnwell
Rhett. former Editor of the Charles
ton Mercury, J. F. Ficken, afterward
Mayor of Charleston.
From Orangeburg-Samuel Dib
Bile, afterward Member of Congress.
From Newberry-Y. J. Pope, af-
terward Chief Justice.

afterWard Member of Congress.
From Union-R. w. Shand.

TO PAY TAFT'S EXPENSES.
Augusta Organization Offers Presi-
dent $4,000.

Washington, May 2S.-A protest
against the action Of certain Demo-
cratic members of Congress in oppos-
ing the appropriation of $4,000 for
the presidents travelling expenses,
covering the presidents last South
ern trip and an offer to make up the
deficit, was telegraphed to Speaker
Cannon today by the Augusta (Ga.)
Chamber of Commerce anl Cotton
Exchange and the Georgia-Carollna
Fair Association.
At a joint meeting of the three Or
CARNATIONS 1T was unanimously
agreed that we respectfully ten
der, through you, to the government
of the United Ststes the $4,000 nee
essary to meet the deficiency of the
Presidents recent trans-continental
trip, which did much to cement the
ties between the different sections
and bring the nation and the nations s
Chief Executive in closer touch and
sympathies with each other"
Representatives Hardwick and
Bartlett of Georgia denied that the
telegrams. in any way reflected on
their action. They stated that they
took part in the House debate only
after Representative Tawney had
criticised Southern hospitality and
charged that President Taft had
) been forced to pay for his board
while in Georgia. They character
lied that attack upon Southern mem
bers in Congress and upon the hos
pitality of the South as unfair.
When President Taft to-day receiv-
ed the telegram from Augusta it
gave him great pleasure and gave
him to understand that the kindly
feeling for him in the South had in
no way been impaired by the con-
troversy in the House over his travel
Ing expenses.
The President could not possibly
accept the offer of the Georgians.
He intends to pay out of his own
pocket the $1,000 or $4,000 deficit
In his travelling expenses for the
fiscal year.

The Children's Table Manners.

"After a long illness in the hos
pital, I returned home to find that
my children's table manners had suf-
fered complete demorilzation,' y
says Woman's Home companion for
June. They 'gobbled,' used knife
and fork Unfortunately and always
awkardly, regarded their spoons
as shovels and, in short, were per-
feet little savages.
"In order to remedy this quickly
l started a series of company unch-
eons,' at which I was the hostess and
the children the guests. I set the
table as prettily as possible and made
funny little place-cards. The. chill
dren played on delightedly, took
grown-up names and even washed
their hands without murmur: We
made a set of simple rules: The
guests who behaved perfectly re-
ceived three pieces of candy, the
guests who made one mistake recelv-
ed one piece of candy, while any un-
fortunate guest who committed three
breaches of table etiquette received
no candy at all.
e Questions on table manners were
in order at any time, to be answered
by the hostess.
Il chose dishes for these lunch
cons which are not always easy to
eat elegantly, and vas very happy
to see how quickly the children i'm
proved in table manners and other
manners as well, for our company
luncheons' seemed to help general
courtesy quite wonderfully. The best
of it was that there was no nagging
nor cross words. 1t was all good
fun, and my four youngsters can
now go anywhere and eat anything
and mother has the proud conscious
ness that they will always appear to
good advantage"

An Experienced Waiter.

At the first meal on board the
ocean liner, Smythe was beginning to
feel like casting his bread upon the
waters. His friends had told him
that when he began to feel that way
he should stuff himself. He tackled
a outlet first; but it didn't taste
right. He observed to the waiter:
waiter, this outlet isn't very good"

SANDS OF THE SEA USEFUL
OF Great Importance In Glassnaklr9 9
and Wafare-Movins Character
cf Quicksands Explained.

The sands of the sea are singHlarly
useful They are Of primary impor-
tance In glassmaking. They have an
important place IN warfare, as bank
of sand twenty inches thick is proof
against modern rife shots. The cleo
trical properties of sand show that 1t
has positive electricity. although a rod
OF silica. the chief constituent OF sand
Is negative.
The singular drying effect which oc-
ours when a stretch of wet sand is
pressed by the foot is due entirely to
an alteration in the piling OF the sand
grains. Normally the grains are close
together. but abnormal pillng is
brought about by pressure of the foot,
the space between the edges of the
grains being enlarged and the water
drained away If the pressure of the
foot is continued the sand becomes
wetter than ever. the partial vacuum
quickly bringing water from the sur
rounding sand.
In quicksands the moving character
Is thought to be due to the imprison-
ment between the grains of gases from
organic matter.

WORLD TAKES CARE OF ITSELF
Real Philosopher Does Not Worry
Much Over the Terrible Plight
Of the Future.

One may ardently advocate the con-
servation of natural resources without
losing rest in worrying about what
We shall do for crossties when all
forests are destroyed. or for warmth
when coal Is exhausted. 1t is really
unwise to get hysterical over such
troubles, SO long as they are under
contract for future delivery. None
of us should be deficient in philoso-
ply. The real philosopher is he who,
having a sure tip that things are COM
ing his way, smiles upon adversely
with indulgence.
1t Is just as well to consider that
by the time crosstie material quits
the air with all the berths upper and
that a thousand years from now, II
the scarcity of coal runs the price up
to 81 900 a ton, some miserable sim
ners of the present may have cause
to rejoice in the prospect of lower
temperatures.
The world is going to take care Of
itself and the guess that the little
earth will be rocking along on sched-
ule time a hundred thousand years
hence Is just as good as any other.
Why. therefore. worry? Why attempt
to solve the puzzle of navigating the
future of dreadnoughts too big for the
sea: leave that to future Hobsons.
If the safe and sane people will just
make up their minds TO cultivate
philosophy, and to practise 1t, many
disturbing factors would be elimi-
mated There is nothing like determ-
1ning that it will work out all right;
It always does.
