dan vivir una vida completamente il

En- la historic de Puerto Rico no po-
dria anotarse un hecho tan inicuo y aba

THEM ALIKE

At the Anderson Democratic Con-
vention, a few days ago, n of the
gallant men of that county proposed
to do something handsome for the
women present by conceding them a
certain number of delegates to the
State Convention. Mrs. Carrie Nice.
Patrick, who has more than any
of the men in Anderson except Judge
Watkins 1--WE try cases before him)
arose in response to the offer and
said that the women were asking no
special favors of the convention. All
they wanted, she said, was to be
treated just like the men.
Mrs. Patrick is right. If the wom-
en- are to enter politics and take a
hand at running for office they must
adopt the methods of the men or
improve these methods. What we fear
is that they will grow to be just as
'1owdown" as the men politicians.

trousers that's used the most, but l
was like the Irishman's flea, I wasn't

steps and made record time getting
home, my political ambition oozing
out at every pore.
But don't get it in your head that
I'm showing the white feather, for
/ am in the fight to the finish. If
some of the %conceited, pot-bellied-
worry-headed yahoos that Lincoln
county has been sending to the Leg
islature, have been tolerated, I know
that I'll be received with a great ova-
ton. And, my opponent can absorb
this at his leisure; If he does defeat
me in this race, he'll never look fit
for anything afterwards.-Pickens

GOES TO MEET MOTHER

York, May 6.-Louis Feinstein,
Jewish merchant of this place, will
greet his old mother in Chicago Sun
day and will look upon her face for
the first time in twenty years. She
has just arrived in america from
Poland and is now at the home of a
son in Chicago. Feinstein left here
today for Chicago.
Col. Feinstein will be remember
ed in Abbeville as the merchant who
sold goods for less at the store on
North Main, II tell you"
He could have done a much larg-
err volume of "beezness," if he had
been willing to sell shirts on credit,
but he said he had been stung be-
fore, 81 tell you"
Anyway all his friends in Able
vile will rejoice with him that he
has the privilege after twenty years
of being with his old mother again.
May they both live long and pros

CELEBRATE GOLDEN JUBILEE
Mother Patricia Will Celebrate Her
Golden Jubilee Thursday.

On May II Mother Patricia,
SUPPRESS of the Sacred Heart Acade-
my, will celebrate her golden jubi-
lee or the fiftieth anniversary of
taking the vows. Mother Patricia is
the only woman in the state of
South Carolina who has the honor
of deserving the celebration of the
golden jubilee.
Mother Patricia was born OF De-
cember Is, 1S41, in Abbeville coun-
ty. She was converted and took the
VOWS on April 8, 1872. Since that
time she has given so years of un-
broken service for her church. The
real anniversary Of her conversion
was April 8, but owing to the fact
that, at that time, Lent vas being
observed, Bishop Russell postponed
tho jubilee until May II.
The first celebration of the ami.
versary will be mass service at st,
Mary's church at 10 o'clock Thurs
day morning. Between the hours OF
A and 6 o'clock Thursday afternoon
a reception will be held in the Sa'
cred Heart Academy on Hampton
Avenue. The evening will he given
over to a celebration by the chill
dren in the academy. To these meet
ings and services the public is cor
daily invited.-Greenville News.

counted on getting through with the
Baptist countersign, if nothing else
worked. But the Governor was glad
to see them, at least he said so, and
Mrs. Cooper came in to look upon
them. The Korp. insisted on intro
ducing himself, as "the owner Of the
largest furniture store on North Main
Street, Abbeville, S. c., a resident
of Greenville Street, l guess you
have heard of that street, the father
of Lawyer Kerr of the University
law school, a cousin of Percy Miller
of New York and the boytime init
mate of all the great men who have
gone out from Winnsboro, S. c. in
the last three centuries" He gave
himself such a fine recommends
ton that the Governor and Major
Stark finally put him off on Mrs.
Cooper as a partner (well, women
were made to be imposed on)-Dale
Barksdale or Wide Bradley could tell
you the result. Mrs. Cooper has now
demanded that the Governor employ
the whole state constabulary to find
the man who put out the report that
Korp is a setback player. The Korp
is in danger of being arrested every
minute.
In calculating the expenses of the
trip the visitors it seems failed to
recall that they would come back
home. So yesterday afternoon about
8 o'clock when they had run over in
their heads about what the hotel bills
would amount to, etc., it was found
that there was about enough left to
buy an afternoon Columbia Record
to see if their names were in it and
two loaves of bread for lunch. After
thinking over the matter and referr-
ing it to the Ways and Means Com
mittee, Korp. Kerr had a bright idea.
No sooner thought than done. He
hurried down to Col. McKee's place
of business to tell him how many
friends he had in Abbeville, how
long his visits are apart, how absence
breeds discontentment, how much
Uncle Jim thought Of him, how a lit
tie bread cast on the water returns
after many days, and what a splendid
opportunity he had now to drive up
to Abbeville and explain to all his
friends why it is that he does not
come oftener and stay longer. It
didn't take Col. Mckee long to see
the logic Of the argument. So here
they are.

DOG TAKES CARE OF BABY
Mother is Angry Because Police Dis.
turb Child and its Guard.

Chicago, May S.-A bull dog
guarded a 16-month-old baby so
faithfully today that it took two po-
licemen to over power the animal 50
the child could be cared for.
The cries of a child attracted the
attention of the policemen. They en-
tered a basement when they found
the dog guarding the infant. The
dog would not permit them to ap-
proach, springing at their Threats un-
til they muffled it in a blanket.
Later the mother appeared to
claim the child, and said she had
left it with the dog for a guard. She
expressed anger that the patrolmen
had disturbed the two.

Get into politics.
One morning last week, having
nothing in particular to do, and, not
averse. to swapping a few with the
boys, I started out on a pedal tour
with a view Of whooping up my can
didacy for whatever I am running
for. At the first house I approached,
the door was opened by a r~ed-headed
lady of liliputian dimensions. "Good
morning." says I, pleasantly, giving
a little gentle impetus with my toe
to a mangy-looking hound, who SEEM
ed bent on having a little taste of
candidate for a change" "Is the
boss at homer" eyes," says she, in
accents sweet as vinegar, "what do
you want with me-" "I-er-er" I be-
gan, suddenly remembering that she

platform, l asked her to read it. Fin
ally, she says, looking at me kind of
strange, 81 believe you are noncom-
pementis." "N'm," I says, 81 amt,
my folks are all Baptist, and my
grandparents were all Methodist, but
Il ! ever get religion, I think I'll
split the difference and join the non
eompeses,"
"Get out of here" she yells, "Ill
vote for you, but it will be to put you
in a straight-jacket and padded CELL"
and with that she slams the door in
my face. As I sauntered off, I made
a mental resolution that / would not
solicit any more support from the
weaker (?) sex, that it wasn't worth
the trouble and risk. The next per-
son I met was a seedy looking SON.

and he beat me out of a hundred
dollars in a boss trade" Well, I am
not a horse-thief says I, though
some people say that a candidate is
just about as low in the social
scale, but be that as it may, I am a

Method of Weaving

Looms are still made and used In
Persia as they were centuries ago. In
fact. they have changed little since
Pharaoh $ subjects used them, and we
can trace some of the influences OF
early Egyptian craftsmen in the mod
ern Persian rugs. Two upright poles,
supporting two horizontal rollers, one
at the top and the other ut the bottom,
comprise the primitive loom still in
general use. The warp strings are fas,
tened to the lower crosspiece,. and
wound around the upper roller. AS the
weaving advances the rug Is rolled, and
ns each row of knots is finished 1t Is
pressed down by metal device with
teeth similar to comb and the tufts
closely clipped with shears.
An average weaver, working steadily
takes about five or six years to complete
a closely woven rug nine by twelve.
Such n rug would contain about $50
knots to the square inch. The weaver
receives, as compensation for his labor
the magnificent sum of five or ten
cents day, according to his ability.
Sometimes he simply receives his daily
supplies, which are doled out to him by
the head merchant Of the town, who
controls the carpet weaving industry
and keeps the laborers in his debt.
Monstrous, profitless and hopeless as
this system Is, the Oriental clings to It,.
