RAINS FISH ON SHIPS DECK.
The St. Egbert Barely Escapes Dis
aster from Waterspout.

1t rained fish upon the deck of the
British steamship st. Egbert on June
6, when that vessel was in mid-Ocean
and encountered a huge waterspout,
which nearly wrecked the craft, says
the Philadelphia Record. This is the
story brought in and verified by the
master and crew of the vessel, which
arrived in Philadelphia recently.
According to Capt. McKensie, the
spout was a monster. A huge fun
nel-shaped cloud swept across the
ocean in the direction of the vessel,
and as it neared the st. Egbert it
touched the water, sucking up a
great spout and throwing great quan-
titles of water upon the decks, at the
same time roaring like a cyclone.
When the water was sucked up in
to the vortex of the storm many fish
were drawn above the surface with
it. AS the water fell on the deck the
live fish were scattered about. Hun
dreds of them were sucked up by
the spout.

When Bill Squared Up.

Down in Southeast Kansas town
lives a rather simple minded youth
by the name of Bill Beasley, says the
Kansas City Star, whose facility in
contracting small debts at the local
stores is only equalled by his success
in evading their payment. One day
recently, however, Bill made the mis-
take of showing. some money before
one of his creditors, and after the
hard fought argument which follow
ed the money was handed over to the
storekeeper.
"Now," said Bill sadly, were
square and 1 want receipt. Make
it legal so you won't be after me
again.
And here is the receipt which Bill
proudly exhibited to his friends:
To Whom 1t May Concern, Greet

ents, habeas corpus and nux vomica,
that Bill Beasley don't owe this firm

GROWING MADE COCK MAD.
Brooklyn Boy Attacked and Badly
Hurt by Rooster.

South Norwalk, Conn.,, June 20
Lester Mofitt, four years of age, OF
Brooklyn, who is visiting his uncle,
Representative William H. Burr, at
Greens Farms, near here, went into
the barnyard this afternoon in quest
of excitement and deemed it wise to
crow at large and dignified rooster.
There Lester stopped. And there
the rooster began. 1t flew at the boy,
forced him to the ground and was
ferociously jabbing its spurs into the
lads scalp when Mr.. Burr, summon
ed by Testers screams, ran out and
beat the bird off.
A physician, after taking seven
stitches in Testers head, said that
the rooster, in few more minutes
would have killed the boy.
I'm going back to the city," said
the child. ''The big animals in the

JAMES G. sEIGLER TO APPEAL.
Counsel for Convicted Aiken Man
Change Plans.

Aiken, June 20.-Attorneys for
Jas. G. Seigler, charged with the
murder of Policeman Wade Patter-
son and convicted of manslaughter
and sentenced to seven years at the
June term of the general sessions
court, have served notice upon So
licitor Gunter and other attorneys for
the State that they will appeal to the
supreme court for a new trial.
When the verdict of the jury in
the case was returned, counsel for
the defendant Immediately gave no.
tice of motion for a new trial, but
on the succeeding morning and just
previous to the passing of sentence
on the prisoner, counsel issued a
statement to the court that they had,
after due deliberation, decided to
withdraw the motion, and the court
imposed it's sentence on Seigler.
However, at a more recent confer
ence of attorneys for Seigler, it was
decided to reverse their former de-
cision and file the appeal with the
supreme court.
1t is the law that where the SEN
tence imposed upon the prisoner does
not exceed teny years and the said pris-
oner appeals to the supreme court for
new trial, a circuit Judge may
grant bail to the prisoner, pending the
result of the appeal. The appeal IN
question cannot be heard and passed
upon before the November term of
court, and it is very probable that,
in the meantime, the circuit judge,
the Hon. Hayne F. Rice, will release
seigler from jail on good and sufici-
ent bond.
At present Seigler continues in
jail and is still hopeful. He is hold
ing up well and remains in his usual
cheerful and good-humored nature.

TO CUT COLLETON COUNTY.
New County Movement Started at
Hendersonville Meeting.

Walterboro, June 19.-That Cole
ton county is to suffer further cut
for the purpose of allowing the form
alton of new county was the object
of meeting held at Hendersonville
Tuesday night. For some time it
has been known that there has been
some unrest among citizens of the
lower part of this county and rumors
have been heard that on effort will
be made to cut off and go to Beau
fort county. Recently, however, this
discussion has taken a new turn and
now the desire seems to be to form
a new county out of the lower portion
of Colleton county. Accordingly a
mass meeting was called at Hender-
sonville Tuesday night, of this week,
for the purpose of making plans look
ing to the formation of this county.
About SO to rs citizens of Henderson
vile and community assembled at
the high school auditorium and were
presided over in their deliberations
by the Rev. G. A. Martin, and H. M.
Williams was appointed secretary. 1t
was decided at this meeting to ap-
point a committee of fourteen to
have charge of working up sentiment
in favor of the new county. Major
S. A. Marvin, who is and has been
the prime mover in the new county
talk, was chosen chairman of this
committee; other members of the
committee are: Paul Sanders, c. P.
Fishburne, J. B. Dodd, ]. N. Wood,
J. M. Speights, E. D. Ravenel, and j..
S. Hicman. There are several others
whose names could not be obtained.
The principal cause for complaint
is in reference to road work in the
county. Those who are disgruntled
claim that they do not get any re-
turn for their commutation road tax
and that their roads have not receiv-
ed any attention in several years.
They claim that as they do not have
large voting population that it is
useless to appeal to the county au-
thorities for redress. AS one of the
members of the committee express
ed it over the phone to the News and
Courier correspondent, "anything un-
der the sun for change"
The territory affected is all the
lower part of the county, taking in
as far up as Islandton, embracing the
Sniders section, and coming within
eight miles of WATERFORD, which is
constitutional; encircling WATERFORD
and taking in the territory near Cot
tageville. 1t is not known what re-
ception this proposed new county will
meet in the portions of the territory
included.
R. M. Jeffries, of Jasper county,
former editor of the Jasper Herald
and one of the promoters of Jasper
county, was to have been present at
the meeting at Hendersonville last
night, but did not show up. 1t is
supposed that his services will be Sc
cured to assist in working up sentl-
ment for this new county and en-

WHEN LINCOLN RAN
There Was Also Mudthrowing in
Politics.

Because of the terrific firing of the
mud batteries during the present
presidential primaries there are many
timorous souls that believe that no
candidate has ever been so bitterly
assailed as his favorite, says the
North American Review. True, the
presidential primary has led to po-
| litical methods that are condemn
able, but, nevertheless, they are not
entirely new. The North American
Review has collected some of the ut
terances when Lincoln ran for the
presidency.
From the New York Herald:
MAY 10, 1S69-The Republican
convention at Chicago has nominated
Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois, for
president of the United States-a
third-rate Western lawyer, poorer
than even poor Pierce. They pass
over Seward, Chase and Banks, who
are statesmen and able men, and
they take fourth-rate lecturer, who
can not speak good grammar, and
who, to raise the wind, delivers his
hackneyed, illiterate compositions at
5000 apiece. Our readers .recollect
that this peripatetic politician visited
New York two or three months ago
on his financial tour, when, in re-
turn for the most unmitigated trash,
interlarded with coarse and clumsy
jokes, he filled his empty pockets
with dollars coined out of Republi-
can fanaticism."
"May %, 1860-The candidate for
president, Abraham Lincoln, is an
uneducated mana vulgar village
politician without any experience
worth mentioning in the parctical du-
ties of craftsmanship, and only noted
for some very unpopular votes which
he gave while a member of congress.
The comparison between Seward and
this illiterate Western boor is odious
it is the Hyperion to satyr.'
From the Albany Atlas and Ar
gus:
May FL, 1S60-Mr. Lincoln was
first heard of in politics a year ago
last fall, when, limping with wounds
and bowling with anguish he was
driven through the State of Illinois
by Douglas and defeated with the
tacit approval of the majority of his
own party, and with the publicity ex-
pressed gratulations of Greedy, Weed
and Others. Last spring he made his
debut in the State as an orator and
commenced charging for his speech
es at the rate of 500 apiece, and
was forced to desist amid such pub
lie expressions Of contempt that he
may be said to have been fairly hiss
ed out of the State. He has never
held public office of any credit, and
Is not known except as slangwhang-
ing stump speaker of a class with
which every party teens, and of
which all parties are ashamed
From the Boston Post:
MAY 21, 1S60-Lincoln has mere
ly talent for demagogue appeal that
was thought to be worth in New Eng
land $50 or 500 a speech by those
who hired him; but some who heard
him were surprised that he should
be considered anywhere a great man.
He can only be the fanatical tool of
the fanatical host he will lead on"
Mud throwing is as old as politics,
and politics began when there were
two men and one of them wanted Of
fee.
Cheer up, oh ye doubtful, for the
worst is yet to come-wait until we
get into the campaign proper and not
a mere primary campaign, and then
it will be time to RUN for the cyclone
cellar.
