TlLIAIAN CAN'T CANVASS STATE.
Feeble Health PreventS-Scntimen-
tai Reasons Prompt HiD Entry.

Senator Tillman will not make a
county-to-county canvass Of the State
in the primary this summer. On ac-
count Of feeble health, the Senator
says, this will be impossible. He
asks the support Of citizens through
the press. He further states that for
sentimental reasons he desires re-
election. Following is a copy Of a
statement received from Senator
Tillman:
TO the People of South Carolina:
Twenty-Five years ago asked you
to elect me to the office of Governor.
stYouPdid It, after5 q yeryshot camp gn

for reelection. You gave me the
office the second time by an over
whelming vote. After four years OF
service In the Governors office,
asked you to send me to the Senate;
and again, after heated canvass,
you placed me in the Office ! now

obloquN on account of newspaper
abuse at home. l have fought my
way, in spite Of it, and have lived to
see most of the newspaper men in
the press gallery my friends.
BY long service and hard work,
have won an enviable position in
Washington, and the State IS enti-
tied to whatever benefit | have in
places on the committees, which can
only be obtained by such service.

strong desire to "die in harness" for

my appreciation and gratitude for the
confidence and love you have given
me in all these years. If ] did not

Cure That EaIIed

The story recently published in 9
southern newspaper, to the effect thai
an ignorant negress had given hel
little girl mixture of dogs blood
and powdered bone to cure her OF a
fever. recalls an Indian prescription
contained IN an old volume entitled
Primitive Superstitions
An Indian had been desperately
hurt in fight with a grizzly bear
and the medicine man prescribed a
mixture OF rattlesnakes heads, worn.
out moccasins and chewing tobacco
seasoned with pepper and bears
grease, of which the patient was to
drink pint every bali hour. .He
was brave man" says the story,
but he died with the utmost expedi-
tion. The members of the tribe
agreed that the remedy was faultless.
and that death was due to the fact
that the medicine man had failed to
order that It should be administered
to the accompanies OF a dance and
a yell
