animals, good intentions" will be
pushed in the background on a GER
tain pavement and new and thick
er pavement will be made out of
those who are cruel to domestic or
wild animals. The English Parlia-
ment at last has introduced a measure
to prevent the docking Of horses.
They ought to have done that when
the first man made up Of fool and
savage, set the fashion for docking.
The very perfection of cruelty to
horse is to drive one with tail about
six to ten inches long and his head
reined up to an angle of &orty-five
degrees and often left standing in the
blazing sun in that condition. The
tight check rein should be abolished.
If we were the autocrat of this city
the police would be ordered to take
the check rein off every horse in the
city and arrest the driver. No man
should be allowed to drive a docked
horse through the city. Our legisla-
ture should follow the example of the
English parliament and pass a law
against docking horses. A great de-
mand has been made for reducing the
hours of labor especially on public
works. What about horses and mules
which are worked twelve to eigh-
teen hours a day? How about over
loading them? Many horses have
been pulled to death before they are
ten years old, just when they ought
to be in their prime Through care
lessness horses, dogs and cattle often
suffer for want of water, especially
in hot weather. Then many horses,
even on the farms are only half fed.
You may examine a hundred horses
and mules driven from the farms
and more than half of them are in
poor condition. The hair is dead
looking and the skin is tight and the
animal has a sorrowful look. That is
a slow punishment but it is cruel in
the extreme. Attention is called to
these facts that few people may
set their thought works" to going
and make reform. Whenever you
see farmer driving half-fed horse,
you set him down as most economi-
cal man, too mean or stingy to own
a horse. When you see sort of
hing in human form driving docked
horse with his head reined high, you
may set it down that he has less
orains than the horse has tail. When
The great round up is made after
crossing the final divide, men and
women who have been persistently
cruel to animals in this life will have
A tough time in the next.

Winnsboro News and Herald, 3rd.
A very simple and impressive cere-
mony was the marriage of Miss Eliz-
abeth Stevenson to Mr.. Albert Wicker
of Charlotte, N. c., which took place
Wednesday afternoon at five o'clock.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. ]. M. Holiday, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, at the home OF
the brides mother Mrs. Julia Steven
son, on College street. The parlor
was very tastily decorated with pot
plants and ferns. The bride and
groom followed by little Miss Ade-
laide Rion, the ring bearer, entered
to the strains of Lohengrins bridal
chorus, and were made husband and
wife, by the Rev. J. NJ, Holladay-
the beautiful ring ceremony being
used.
The bride looked lovely in beau
tifully hand embroidered voile, her
only ornament being broach OF
pearls, the gift of the groom. She
carried a large bouquet of brides
roses. Immediately after the cere-
mony the guests were invited into the
dining room, where delicious refresh
ments were served.
The brides travelling suit was
handsome serge, with hat and gloves
to match.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wicker, after receiv-
ing the best wishes of their many
friends, left on the 7:15 train for New
berry, where they will spend few
days with the groom's parents, be,
fore going to their future home in
Charlotte, N. c.
The out-of-town guests were, Miss
Gertrude Wicker of Columbia, Miss
Grady Wicker and J. D. Wicker, Of
/ Newberry.

H c. SUMMERS, JR., LOSES BARN.
Stock Was Gotten Out, But Lot of
Feed Stuff Burned.

Anderson Mail, 3rd.
The big barn at the home of Mr..
H. C. Summers, Jr., north of Sandy
Springs, was destroyed by fire early
Wednesday night. TIE mules had just
been put up for the night and fed
when flames were seen coming from
the roof of the building, and in short
while it was enveloped. Fortunately
all of the stock was saved, but there
was a lot of feed stuff burned with
the barn.
The barn had eight or ten stalls,
and was a good building, Insurance to
the amount of about half its value
only was carried, so that the loss as
the result of the fire will be several
hundred dollars above this.

Well Said And to the Point.
Yorkville Enquirer.

Yorkville Enquirer.
The Newberry Observer is persist
emily harping on the practice of news
papers in taking transportation from
the railroad companies in exchange for
advertising. We have not had any
thing to say on the subject heretofore;
but we are going to say this. We have
been. and are giving railroad advertis-
ing in exchange for transportation, and
we see no moral wrong in it. We feel,
however, and in fact we know, that the
railroad people get very much the
best of the bargain, and that from a
business standpoint, we as we'll as
other papers that follow this arrange
ment, are pursuing a very poor policy.
The newspaper people should charge
the railroad people regular prices for
advertising space and pay the rail-
roads regular prices of transporta-
tion. That would be more satisfac-
tory and better business all round.
But there is no just blame to attach
against the railroads in this matter.
If newspapers are getting the worst
of this arrangement as they certainly
are, they have only themselves to
blame.

Spartanburg Herald.
Mother Nature does us some pret'
ty mean tricks sometimes, but on the
other hand, she does some things with
a free hand and with quite depend
able regularity. 1t is most provok-
ing when she mantles our peach
tre:s with a frost that slaughters that
delicious fruit, as well as plums, cher
ries and the like. But when it comes
to the blackberries she is about as
reliable as she ever is anywhere and
very generous.
The blackberries-how would this
country do without them? We do
not have in mind the rich city folks,
who can buy California or Florida
fruits, but the poor man, the
man and his wife and six Or eight or
ten children out in a rural environ
ment, whom the hunger for pie
strikes every summer and for whom
there would be no pies many a sea-
SON but for those old reliables-the
glossy blackberries that hang on clus-
terry festoons over every branch and
ditch bank.
None of the enemies that lie in
wait for your fancy nursery fruit can
trouble our native blackberry. Who
;yer heard of San Jose scale or the
Goblin moth doing about in black
berry patch? What storm ever up
rooted the home of Br'er Rabbit?
Come rain or come drought, early
frost or late frost, bugs, worms, or
what not, he hlackberries grow and
redGen and ripen-whiie you sleep or
90 unfretted about your business. In
due time they are ready for the pick
ing, and thsre you are--pies, jam,
yea. even wine or cordial, We'll put
it all in right just for tie gathering
plus a little sugar and some gump-
ton about how to do it up.

About the Trees.
Anderson Mail.

Anderson Mail.
Col. E. H. Aull, writing in the New
berry Herald and News, after visit
tn several cities at distance, takes
occasion to say:
"And talk about your clean city,
YOUR clean streets, and your beautl-
ful parks and trees-Washington IS
the place to see them; all these
things and more. Columbia had beau
tiful trees and streets and small
parks in the streets-I say had Ihem'
because noticed the other day when
l was there that the beautiful shade
trees, that it took generations TO
grow, and. that it will take generations
to replace, were being cut down. In
Washington, in the same class OF
streets, the trees are being planted
and are being protected
Commenting upon this the KeoWee
Courier Of Walhalla says:
"The officials of Columbia ought to
be ashamed of themselves. They
ought to know that the trees OF a
municipality are public property;
they ought to take trip out into the
world and note how thinking people
look after Natures beauties. What a
pitv the officials of our Capitol city
are so short-sighted and provincial.
We present these views of our
neighbors to the officials of the city
of Anderson. We do not believe in
letting trees block the coming OF de-
velopment, but we do believe that
care should be shown in the matter OF
cutting down the trees. What An
derson needs is an experienced land
scape architect to come here and thin
out some of the trees we have on
the streets and lawns. This may be
done without any hurt to the city and
will improve the trees that are left.
