MACK, THE BRINDLE BULL DOG
OF NJ. H. BAILEY, IS DEAD

A dog that was loved by every
one that knew him for his Pc
culiar disposition. He attended
strictly to his own business and
did not bother anyone that did
bother him. He loved his master
better than any body else, and
was faithful follower of him
for five years. The winter was
never too cod or summer TO
hot for Mack to follow his master,
And if it was so dark that Mr.
Bailey could not see the dog
would touch him on the hand or
leg to let him know be was there.
Mr.. Bailey only made two trips
in the five years that he did not
take Mack with him.he whinned
fretfully and ref sed to eat or
drink until his master returned.
The family was as devoted to
him as he was to them. and did
everything that could be done
for him in his last suffering

BOOST ARKANSAS"

We have just received from the
passenger traffic department of
the Iron Mountain Route a very
handsome booklet describing the
Hot Springs Of Arkansas.
Both front and back covers of
the book are magnificent speci-
mems Of the modern printers
skill, being done in many bright
colors and bearing titles in guilt.
Hot Springs is fully pictured
throughout the book with mag
nifcent views, a d the margins
of all the pages are decorated in
colors with scenes depicting the
pleasures to be derived at this
famous gem of the OZarks. The
description deals with the mar
velous curative power of the
waters, Government supervision,
legends and traditions, amuse-
ments, hotel accommodations,
climate and scenery, prices for
baths, list of hotels and their
rates and finally how to reach
Hot Springs.
A large supply of these books
has been printed at a great eX-
pense and they will be sent out
to those answering the news
paper advertisements.
This railroad company spends
many thousand of dollars every
year advertising this resort in
the large d ally apers
e p eci a ly in the
| North Northwestern and North
eastern parts of the country.
Today there is hardly a better
known resort in the entire world !;
in fact, it will surprise a good
many to know that twice as
many visit Hot Springs every
year as the famous Carlsbad.
In thus advertising Hot Springs
the Iron Mountain Route is doing
much for Arkansas.
Great numbers of people travel
ing to and from Hot Springs
every year must ultimately mean
much good forthis State, whose
magnificent resources are so little
known. The fame Of Arkansas
will soon be carried far and wide
by actual word of mouth. Let
every loyal Arkansas say good
word for both Hot Springs and
Arkansas on every possible oc-
casion, especially when writing
to friends living in other States.
We feel sure that Mr.. G. l..
Stone, Passenger Traffic Manager
of the Iron Mountain Route at st.
Louis, will be glad to send to
such people not only this hand
some Hot Springs book but also a
complete line of Arkansas litera-
ture if the reader will take the
trouble to send in the names Of
friends living in other States
Do something for Arkansas to-
day.

Women Mad.

Denver, COL, Sept. 19.-"Let the
women do the work." is the sad re-
frain of Colorado suffragettes who
are nursing their wrath against those
in charge of the banquet to President
Taft on the occasion of his visit here
October 8. Basing their request on
the grounds that this is an equal suf-
frage State and that the votes of wo-
men were largely responsible for the
success of the three Republican can
didates who broke the solid Demo-
cratic administration in the State
last fall, prominent women politicians
asked for places at the banquet
board. They received coupons en-
titling them to seats in the gallery
and the privilege of watching the
men eat. Feminine cajolery and tears
availed nothing "Not room enough
for the men, to say nothing of the
women" was the reply of the ban
quet committee and now the women
are planning legislation which will
give women her share in the F*play''
of politics as well al in the work.

LITTLE JOE" TO MAKE RACE.
Will Seek Governorship Soon Va
Gated by Hoke Smith.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept 23.-Former
Gov. Joseph NJ. Brown, who was de-
feated for reelection by Gov. Hoke
Smith, tonight announced his candi-
dacy for the goyernorship, to be made
vacant when Gov. Smith resigns next
month to assume his duties as
United States Senator. This makes
three candidates in the field, the 9TH
ers being Judge R. B. Russell and J..
Pope Brown. In making his an
nouncement, Ex.-Gov Brown states:
believing as I always have that
your highest Office would be protect
ed in the dignity that inherently at
taches to it, I have till this date de-
clined to make any statement as to
candidacy to fill any part of term
to which you have elected another.
But as Gov. Smith has made definite
declaration of his intention to resign,
I now feel it my duty to respond to
the calls of thousands of my friends,
and of many of our other fellow citi-
zens in every part of the State, who
have formerly opposed me-"

Twenty.three Per Cent. Not Bad
Showing for Farmers Warehouse.

St. Matthews, Sept. 29.-At a re-
cent meeting of the shareholders OF
the local warehouse company a Sec
ond dividend of 8 per cent. was de-
ciared. A dividend of Is per cent.
was declared in January, making a
total of % per cent. for the year so
far. The stock Of the company has
risen from a scarcely marketable
value to that of $50. At the last
meeting it was decided to increase
the stock from $4,000 to $4,000,
of which the warehouse will take half
and the Farmers union the other
half. There is a grim determination
on the part of the farmers to hold
their cotton, and the merchants and
bankers have pledged their support
to aid them.

CITED THE BIBLE IN DEFENCE.
But Seventh Day Adventists Con
victed of Breaking Sabbath Laws.

Spartanburg, Sept. 30.-When at
torneys for J. A. Brown and wife,
Mary, on trial for violating the Sun
day laws, attempted to introduce the
Bible as testimony, Magistrate J. A.
Scruggs ruled that this was incom-
petent
Mr. and Mrs: Brown, who are
members of the Seventh Day Advent
lists Church, and who believe that
Saturday is-the day set apart for rest,
were arrested on warrants issued by
neighbors, charged with violating
Section 500 of the South Carolina
Code. The defendants alleged in
sofar as they held Saturday sacred
and in obeying the dictates of their
own consciences they could not per-
form any labor on that day, and that
as it was necessary for them to ex-
ert every effort to gather their cot
ton crop as soon as possible to pre-
vent destruction by the elements,
they were not liable under this Sec
ton. The defendants testified that
they had rested on one day in the
week, in harmony with their under
standing of the commandments of
God, and believed that this law was
unconstitutional. However, the jury
returned a verdict Of guilty and Mr..
and Mrs. Brown were sentenced to
pay a fine of 81 each, the limit pre-
scribed by law. Notice of appeal to
a higher court was given.

Things That Were Missing.

A wagon show, which had gaudy
paper but little else, played to a very
unsatisfactory business in a small
town generally good.
Following the afternoon perform
ance two locals were checking up the
show from the thirty-tWo sheet stand
on the fence opposite the depot:
"They didn't have this" said one,
pointing to herd of elephants:
"Nor this" said the other, deslg-
mating a brilliant riding act.
- BLAMED if I saw this" No. went
on, indicating a fying-trapeze per-
formance.
Popcorn George, who had suffered
keenly through slack day, had over
heard the conversation. Stepping
between them, he put his hand on a
scene showing a mob storming a red
wagon for tickets. =,
"No," said he, "and they didn't
have this. Chicago Evening Post.

SIX FINE COWS DIE.
They Were Attacked by Hydrophobia
and Soon Died.

Cope, Sept. 21.-Mr. j. D. Thorn
as, a. prosperous farmer of tho Cope
section, lost five or six COWS during
the last ten days, under somewhat
peculiar circumstances. 1t was only
from five to ten or twelve hours af-
ter the symptoms would appear be-
fore the animal would be dead. They
would rub their jaws until they be-
came raw; some would below out
from pain, but whatever the cause,
each one affected would be sure to
die.
&, Mr.. Thomas became alarmed for
fear his horses and mules might be
attacked by the same trouble, and
was told, that the trouble was caus-
ed by their eating damaged oat
straw, or oats grown on very rich
bottom soil, that became infected
with some germ or microbe injurious
to animal life. He stopped feeding
oats, but the trouble still continued,
only, among the COWS, however.
On last Saturday DR.. Burleigh,
Clemson's veterinarian, arrived, and
stayed until Sunday afternoon study
ing the cause. He gave it as his
opinion that the COWS had mild
form of hydrophobia; caused by eth
er being bitten by rabid dog some
time back, or from eating grass, up
on which the saliva from rabid dog
had fallen, or that they had cotton
hold of some poisonous. plant. he
went on to say that if another died,
and the brain was sent to him, he
could tell exactly whether it was
caused from rabies or poisonous
herb or plant. From latest accounts
it seems that the trouble is about
over, as none have died lately. The
loss to Mr.. Thomas is quite heavy, as
he has good stock, and cattle are
worth a good price this days.

Ducks.

(Composition written by 12-year-
old boy.)
The duck is a low, heavy set bird
composed mostly of meat, bill and
feathers. His head sets on one end,
he sets on the other.
There amt no between to his toes
and he carries toy balloon in his
stomach to keep him from Sinking.
The ducks has only two legs and
they are set so far back on his run
ming gear that they come durn near
missing his body.
Some ducks when they get big are
called brakes. brakes don't have to
set to hatch, just loaf, go swimming
and eat. If I was to be duck I'd
rather be drake every time.
Duck does not give milk but eggs,
but as for me give me liberty or give
me death.

PATHETIC SIGHT.
Seven.Year-Old Child Tries to Pilot
Drunken Father on the Street.


A pathetic sight was witnessed on
Meeting street, near the Evening
Post Office to-day when a little pale
faced chap of not more than seven
years of age was seen trying to pilot
his drunken father to corner to
take a street car, for the union sta
tion.
The man and child had come to
Charleston from Walterboro. Wheth-
er the particular business which
brought them to Charleston had been
transacted, is not known, but about
1 o'clock the little fellow was tug
ging along with a small hand satchel
in one hand while with the. other he
would catch and try to hold his
fathers hand or the seam of his faith
er's trousers Several times the man
slapped the little fellow out of his
way but the boy pluckily persisted in
trying to lead his father.
A neighboring blind tiger had the
mans eyes and as staggering as he
was he was bent upon taking anoth-
er drink. Fortunately passerby
came to the assistance Of the little
fellow and helped the man to a cor
ner when the father and son were
placed aboard belt line car and the
conductor asked to put them out at
the union station.-Charleston Even
