PICKING NOTES.

Our good friend, the Editor OF the
Greenwood Index and we weigh oul
words in so ter1ning him, for one rea'
son or another, is liable to lower his
standards in his petty attacks on
Congressman Aiken. He is; playing
in an unnatural role when he uses
his paper quibbling over trifies, in
the effort to injure one toward whom
he may feel more or lessiaggriexed.
MI. Watson is a good man and a
true man, and if he has thoroughly
analysed Mr.. rAiken's reasons for
voting as he didon the mileage'ques.
ton, he must admit that he voted
conscientiously, and really to the adj
vantage of the government.
The proposition Was to pay all nee
essary expenses of Congressman and
their dependent families and to re-
peal the present mileage allowance.
The difference in dollars and cents to
the government would be slight,
with the probability that the new
provision would cost more. ' :
Now we do not doubt that plenty
of M e who would represent the
Third District, would even promise
togive over a geodEpart of the salary:
It was ever thus. with the man try
ing to get in. But who would make
the requirement of 7him?e Congress
has been in session almost contin-
uously for three years, and present
salaries dwindle by reason of neces=
sary expenses, to-a very unattractive
figure. -Ifsithe Congressman <. will
serve his constituents honestly and
faithfully he Is receiving little
enough either in salaryHor mileage.
If he doescnot 80 serveahis constit-l
uents, any remuneration is too much
for him. Congressman Aiken he's al:
ways voted in the open., He has not

PERIL OF A POET.
When swinourne, Caught by the Tide,
Was Almost Drowned.

Algernon Charles Swinburne, the
English poet, was a superb swimmer
and fearless in the water. Yet as
Il young man he had a very mar row
escape from drowning.
S%winburne was a daring bather,
and he loved to go TO Etretat be-
cause the opportunities for swim
ming in the sea were so excellent
there. On a certain Friday in the
late summer of 1886, about 10
o'clock in the morning, the poet
went alone to a solitary point on
the eastern side of the PLACE, the
Porte d'Amont flor there is no real
harbor at Et~retat), took of his
clothes and plunged in as was his
won't. A few minutes later a man
called C%oquerel, who was on the
outlook at the semaphore at the
foot of the cliffs on the eastern side
of the bay, heard cries for help and
piercing screams.
He climbed up on a chalk rock
and saw that a swimmer, who had
been caught by the tide, which runs
very swiftly at that place, was be-
ing hurried out to sea in spite Of
his violent struggles. As it was inn
possible for Coquerel to do any
thing else to help the drowning
man, he started to race along the
shore to Etretat, when he saw the
Marie Marthe, one of the fishing
smacks of the village, come round
the point. Coquerel called to the
boatman and directed him to the
drifting and shouting man.
The captain of the smack very
quickly understood the situation
and followed the poet, who no long
er struggled, but supported him
self by floating on the surface of
the tide. The water was hurrying
him along so swiftly hat the boat
could not pick him up until it had
reached a point a mile to the north
east of the eastern point of Etretat.
The fisherman, whose name was
Vallin, drew the poet out of the wa
ter, Captain Vallin was not much
less astonished at his capture than
the lcarians were at theirs, for
Swinburne displayed his usual Vi
vacity. The weather was glorious.
The rescuers rubbed the poets body
with their horny hands, and then
they wrapped him in a spare sail,
over which his name Of orange
rudy hair was spread to dry. He
began to preach to the captain and
his men, who surrounded him in
rapturous approval, the doctrines of
the republic. and then he recitcd to
them 'by the hour together the
