CHAPTER VII.
ct CAN HELP YOU"


A HALF hour spent with Hexford
"A in and about the clubhouse
and Sweetwater was ready for
the road. Musing and NUT
tering, he plodded up the road, his
insignificant figure an unpromising
break in the monotonous white of the
wintry landscape. Under ordinary cir
cumstances Sweetwater would have
met not more than half dozen carts
or sledges between the clubhouse gates
and the city streets. But today the
road was full of teams carrying all
sorts of incongruous people, eager for

torious by mysterious crime. He
noted them all-the faces Of the men,
the gestures of the women-but he did
not show any special interest till he
came to that portion Of the road where
the long line of half buried fences
began to give way to few scattered
houses. Then his spirit woke, and he
became quick, alert and persuasive.
He entered houses; he talked with the
people. Though evidently not dis
sipated man, he stopped at several
saloons, taking his time with his glass
and encouraging the chatter of all
who chose to meet his advances. He
was a natural talker and welcomed
every topic, but his eye sparkled at one
only. This he never introduced him.
self; he did not need to. Some one
was always ready with the great
theme, and once it was started he
did not let the conversation languish
till every one present had given his or
her quota Of hearsay or opinion to the
general fund.
1t seemed great waste of time, for
nobody had anything to say worth
the breath expended on it.
He had left the country road behind
and had entered upon the tumble Of
sheds, shops and streets which marked
the beginnings of the town in this d.
rection when his quick and expert
enced eye fell on woman standing
with uncovered head in an open door
way, peering up the street in anxious
expectation of some one not yet in
sight. A second survey of the wo-
mans face convinced him that his or
binary loquaciousness would not serve
him here There was a refinement in
her aspect quite out Of keeping with
the locality in which she lived. and
he was hesitating how to proceed
when fortune favored him by driving
against his knees a small lad on an
Ill directed sled, bringing him almost
to the ground and upsetting the child,
who began to scream vociferously.
1t was the woman's child, for she
made instantly for the gate, which, for
some reason. she found difficulty in
opening. Sweetwater was at his best
with children, and. catching the little
fellow up, he soothed and fondled him

Old Times Down South.

Orangeburg should turn out en-
masse to hear Polk Miller and his
quartette next Monday night. He1e
is what the Augusta Chronicle says
OF them: "Mr. Polk Mtller's enter
tainment at Miller Walker Hall last
night was revelation even to South
ern ears who have known from child
hood the exquisite harmony of ante
bellum negroes minstrelsy and folk
songs. In his quartette of negro
singers, Mr.. Miller has medium for
presenting old time plantation music
probably superior to any other be-
cause the betrayal is true to life and
because the ability of the four men
is phenomenal. The quartette is a
marvel. Of course Mr.. Miller is al
ways himself a gifted Southern gen
tleman whose position in the world of
Southern melody is like that OF
Thomas Nelson Page and Joel Chand-
Ter Harris in Southern literature.
His banjo playing has the true plan
tation swing and his jokes and tales
are ever new. His singing is charac-
teristic and sympathetic.

Little Boy Run Over.

Ton. Van Orsdell, q young son Of
Mr.. C. M. VanOrsdell of this city, was
injured Saturday morning by coming
in contact with two mules hitched to
a wagon. Although he received many
bruises, his injuries are not serious.
The accident seems to have been the
result of careless driving on the part
of the negro in the wagon, who did
not stop to see what extent the little
fellow was injured. The negro was
arrested and placed in the guard
house.

The Columbia Record says it de-

this order, which was issued at the
