THURSDAY MORNING, OOT. 6, 189b
Herald readers will be glad to see the
oSotal returns of the eleetfon of county
officers, though it has delayed the publica
tion of the paper.
The re-election of so msny oounty offi
cers, while gratifying to their personal
pride, will doubtless also be so incentive
to increased vigilanoe and fidelity in the
dieeberge of their offloial duties. They
will not forget that public office is s public
trust.

Colonel Roosevelt was officially

A Correspondent Says.
The farmers of Sumter oonuty
will make more bales of hay than
bales of cotton this year, notwith

The Bled lou.
The result of the eleotlon yesterday hee
surprised even the most ssugnlne in the
overwhelming majority gl-en to the den»-
ooraoy. The quickness with whioh Sh
eleotlon haa passed off is gratifying to all.
The oourteous bearing of those in the
majority the abBenoe of jeers and tannts
is osrtainly to bs commended. The growing 1
venel vote, the number of venal voters, that
••11 their vote for whisky and monay, and
the venal vote makers,that help to debauch
and enBlsve these voters is growing more
repulsive and offensive. The harvest of
corruption and debauohary that auoh seed
will produoe, will far outweigh any bene
fits the party can win by auoh votsrs.

It is as we believe the general desire o

whose honesty and integrity they oan not
question, should now re-unite with them
in battling not for party, bnt tor the right
and for truth.

Hnndffj'i Ureut Storm.
fin equinaotial storm of great violence
■wept the South Atlantic ooast on Sunday
and during the afternoon and night spread
terror and havoo over a great part of the
state. Hntohinson's island at Savannah
was overflowed, and considerable damage
was done to shipping and to roofs and
•hade trees.
At Brunswick the damage and danger
was greatest. Water rose from 2 to 6 and 8
feet in the streets and stores, some had to
■wim out for life. The 1ob6 is estimated at
9600,000, but some think it may exceed
that sum.
The people seemed to disregard thair
losses,in their gralitndo fov their own safety
The intermediate country from the ooast
aa far as Maoon and even boyond and in
Atlanta, all were stormswept, but damages
were more restricted to field orops, forests,
and fenoing.
Tbe cotton crop that was still in the fields
in this oounty is estimated to be damaged
one half, as that that may be saved will
olaia only as storm ootton.
Attractive Women,
Why ie one woman attractive and another
sol? The most admirable and attractive
thing abont an attractive wemsn is b<
womanliness. Everybody admires a wo
manly woman. She must have health,
course, because without it she would lose
tha brightness of her eyes, tbe fullness oi
her oheeka and her vivacity. Real health
must mean that a woman is really a wo
man. That she is strong and perfect in
aexnal way, as well as in every other. That
ahe is capable of performing perfectly tbe
duties of maternity. Soma are born with
what is called "constitutional weakness
Those who do not enjoy perfect health
need only take the proper precantiooe and
the proper remedy to beoome perfectly well
and strong. Dr. Pieioe’a Favorite Pre

Letter to Young Men.
(Continued from last week')
Not many years ago it is said
that there lived a father of only
one child a daughter, she was in
telligent and pretty, bad all the
marks to encourage her parents!
by and by her father died, and she
was left an orphan gir). Her moth
er loved her with all of her heart.
But Mary did not love her mother
as she should. And so it was that
Mary was led away from home to
seek tbe pleasures of life amid the
whirlpool of sin and immorality
Sad mistake was this, for in my
judgment there is no friend like a
mother, no associate that will care
for yon like a parent. The loved
ones of home will take a part of
your misfortunes, and when disas
ters come they share with you the
hardships of life, and so in turn,
when a boy becomes good and
great, and men and women love to
honor them, then the loved ones
are made to feel prond of the re
lationship. But Mary dear girl
where had she gone? Mother did
not know, she could only be anx
ious and continue to ask where is
my child, seemingly alt hope nad
gone that Mary would ever return,
yet actuated by her auxiety she
appeals to a good man for help,
she did not seek his money no, no,
but iu confidence said to bim.my
daughter is lost, please help me to
find her. He had a heart that
could sympathize, and says he, yes,
be did not give her money, and tell
her to travel and hunt for your
daughter by no means. But told
her to go to the picture gallery and
have several pictures of herself
made and bring them to him, and
so she did. Now says he, go
where you think Mary is likely to
come, and hang upon the wall your
picture’s,and thus continue to bang
piotnres, until every plaoe where
Mary is likely to go shall have one
or more of your pictures with this
inscription written in large letters:
Mary Gome Home.
This was all she oould do,she had
no money to offer, nothing but
sympathy of others to rely upon,
no one to Bbare her sorrows, for
Papa was dead, no one but friends.
Bat wbat ob, the value of a true
friendship.
Only a few days had passed and
while that mother was sitting in
her lonely cottage who should fall
aoroBS her lap, and exclaim, oh
mother, dear motberl I have seen
your picture and read your appeal
to me, here I am a wayward ohild
'tis true, but please forgive me. I
will stay with yon, and live where
you live, and die where you die.
And thus a broken heart waB made
to feel the value of a good aot.
Now young men what are you
doing to add to the pleasure of life?
are you inquiring after the oharao
teristios of the good and tbe great
or have you become interested in
vice and immorality? if the latter
let me say to yon please stop and
think, in God’s name stop.
Dwight.
IBWIttHT.
Well Mr. Editor, whan I was i
boy I learned a number of expres
sions that time has never made
clear to my mind, as to their origin
or why it was that snob expessions
should ever find a plaoe among the
sayings of men, but suob is tbe
oase, and here is one, "Hop light
Ladies,” "your cake is all dough,”
"never mind the weather if the
wind don’t blow.”
Ob my! what a storm has just
passed through this seotion. The
beautiful ootton fields that had ap
patently recovered from the rough
siege a few weeks ago, have been
made to present a sad prospect
They look as though a frail pole
had been used on each stalk, thus
scattering the fruit promiscuously.
Much damage bas been done to
our crops. I am sure that no Sep
tember storm has ever done more
damage than this one. The boys
are all sad now except C. B. Hood,
the reason why Charlev is in snoh
a fine mood is, Sunday about 4 a
m. at Long’s bridge, just over on
tbe Haucook side, he was united
in marriage to one of Hancock’s
daughters, Miss Sallie Simpson.
Thns O. B. Hood and Miss Sally
Simpson were united in marriage
while the equinox was passing.
Our old friend T. J. Gumming
came by and filled his appointment
at Pleasant Grove church on Sat
urday and Sunday.
We learn that Jim Hood of He
bron district shot at Sherrod
Boone of Dwight on Saturday
night last, while at tbe home of
Jim’s mother in Dwight. No oause
for the shooting. A oase for tbe
grand jury I guess.
I learn that the blind tiger is
running at large in our county.
The fact is I fear that he has got
loose and is traveling all over this
country on a wheel.
Robbed the Grave.
A startling iooidont, of whioh Mr. John
Oliver oi Philadelphia, was the subject, U
narrated by him ss follows; "1 Was in a

TO REIT* WOMEN
Many womon don’t have lime to reet.
It's work, work,work, day after day with
them. As s consequence they are always
tired. That kind of a life soon uffeots the
constitution. About the first evidence oi
this is weakness or deraogoment of the fe
minine organa, That means oonstent ached
and pains in the head, baok, aibt, hip &
legs. Women silently suffer that way year
after year. But they need not snffer. No
woman works so hard that she mast bs tir
ed all the Urns. By taking MoElree’e Wine
of Oardul, the great vegetable medicine
made especially for tba peouliar ailments
of women, she osn got relief. Thia medi
cine stops the drain npon the eystem. It
makes e women eo strong that bor work
will not tire her as formerly. It gives her
natural, restfal sleep.’Thousands of Amer
ican women substantiate these etstemente.
Any tired woman osu quickly prove
them by baying a bottle of Wine of Cardni.
Of this modloine J, W, Lawrence of Cor-
sioanna writes;
"My wife was tired all the time and
waa so weak she oould eoaroeiy walk,
got one bottle of Wine of Oardul for her
and before she had taken all of it, she wee
able to do all of her housework.
Hobson’s method of floating the
Maria Teresa was unique. After
be had emptied the ship of water
by means of air bags he blew her
off tbe rocks with dynamite.
Hobson’s success in floating the
Maria Teresa has led to orders be
ing issued to him to try to float
tbe Colon. The brilliant naval
eousti uotor says that he will sail
home iu the Colon.

BURNE-JONES.
<w-
Rossetti's Influence
Artist to Hyphennt
It may or may not be true that it waa
Rossetti who urged Burne-Jones, when
at tbo outset of his oaroor, to connect
With a hyphen “Burne” and “Jones,”,
■ays William Sharp in The Atlantia
'Jones'is nobody," Rossetti would
declare, "only a pnrtiole of a vast mul
tiple I But Burne-Jones—-that is unmis
takable!" '
It was an amusing trait in Rossetti
that ho was wont to designate the good
work of this or that friend as the work
of—and he wonld mention the most
distinctive name or part name ot the
person concerned. Thns he wonld say,
"Yes, that is Burne-Jones, but thi%'
this horo, you know, is only Jonos," or
That now is the real Holman Hunt, 1
bnt this here is only Hnnt," or, "Yon
oan hear Tonnyson in that, bnt Alfred
wrote the other lines."
I recall two amusing iustanoes where
Burne-Jones rnoro or less unoonsoionsly
adopted the same method. He was asked
once if he thought William Bell Scott
more emiueut as a poet or as an artist
"I never thought very highly of Bell,"
he replied. Then, seeing a look of sur
prise, added, with a humorous twinkle,
"I liked old Bell Soott—old Sooths, ad
wo always oalled him—immensely, and
I think William Bell Soott wrote aom*
very fine verse, but I always thought If
was a pity that Bell took to paintingl"
The other instance ooourred when
some one remarked to him that “Par
nell was only an agitator." “Charles
Stewart Parnell," he replied with em
phasis, "was one of the greatest publio
men of our day and far and away the
ablest Irish leader." “Bnt Parnell,"
cto., resumed the objeotor, to be again
corrected by tho other disputant,
"Charles Stowart Parnell," eto. |
The Oldest Patent. !
The question as to the holder of tho
oldest patent in this country has brought
out from tho heirs of Joseph Jenoka
some additional faots whioh tend to
show that ho wns the first inventor in'
this oountry. Patents granted from the
sovereign power of England for land, 1
water and other privileges were not un
common in early colonial times. Joseph
Jencks of Lynn, Mass., a number of
years previous to reoeiving a patent for
an invention of a scythe had boon
granted one for “on application of wa- 1
ter power to mills. ’’ Biographical noted
state that Mr. JenckB introduced to the
Massachusetts oolony tho idea of patent
ing iuveutions, and that he might pro
tect and introduce his ideas seems to
have boon a reason for coming to the
new oountry. Tho grass scythe patented
iu 1652 was perhaps the most valuable
of bis Inventions. Tho improvement
over the old English soythe, with its
short, thick blado, like a bush soythe,
consisted in lengthening the blade, 1
making it thinner and welding a square
bar at tho baok aud strengthening it
Today this soytbo, practically unchang
ed, ia nsod in Europe and Amerioa. The
patent was withheld from Mr. Jenoka
for uino years, as it was thought to be
too valuable to be monopolized.—Hart
