Spottswood Center. S. C.. August.
I am here in South Carolina for a time
to see how the new liquor law is carried •
out. Where lamit is carried out most
every day, together with from six or eight
grownup men who can no longer tbiuk
past a given point.

A PROPERTY WATERMELON.
A New York man who makes property
•watermelons with waterproof linings
has supplied 250,000 to this section. These
watermelons, I find, are like a great rock
in a weary laud.
I have written four times to Governor
Tillman to inquire if he would be open
on Sunday, but so far have received no
reply.
At the same time I sent him a receipt
for spoopju and the option on nine acres j
of mint growing on niy place.
Muskrats came out of the river of
nights and ate my corn this year, and
niy shoes are worn and broken, and the
Bnn is hid from me at times, but behind
the clouds there is a low priced lining of
coin silver quoted at 78 cents, for in the
valley in my North Carolina home, there
aro nine acres of mint waving in the
wynd.
Tomorrow I will go home. To think
that South Carolina, the home of a
frond people, a people whose governor
once said to the governor of North Caro
lina that time was dragging between
drinks, should now be forced to drink i
out of tiie governor’s jug or not at all is
sad.
I have been making some mathemat
ical calculations after visiting Kansas,
lowa, Maine, South Carolina and other
states which claim to have throttled the
rum power, and find after covering
Warning's bridge with figures that the
force used in evading tho lew Li those
states would raise a middle sized planet
two miles in two seconds.
But let us pass on.
I have missed recently from my desk a
literary publication that came to me all
the spring. It was started not many
months ago with the following salutatory:
A callow birdling nestles among you, its un
fledged wings cuter for flight, eager to pene- ■
trate the mysteries of the bright, I.troll canopy ,
of blneaml l evel amid the dreamed of beauties
of tile wide, wide world. Whispering faith and
hope in each vocal breath, what shall be its I
fate? Shall it mingle its joyous carol wit h the
spicy odors of its native groves'? Or will you
cast it out to seek refuge in some alien wood- |
land, there to warble out its early death lay,
unloved, forgotten and alone?
Can it be that it has been cast out?
Oh, I hope not.
I once knew binlling like
that, before its eye's wore open, to hold
its mouth ajyflrior worms all day at the
edge of hSj cumPS little nest, and one
day while iit s eyesY ere clos( its
Jflonth open V large P iz '“ n yellow

something of the zo«fcy of New Jersey
for her scrapbook, W- ■
The flora and faunf of New Jersey’ are
well worthy the attention of the careful
student. She not only leads the Union
in the peach, pear end small fruit in
dustry, but counts aiiiong her successful .
tropical fruits the Ben Davis pumpkin
and the burglar pitof Mother .Hubbard J
squash.
..’he z&ology cf New Jersey gives the I
flunking mind much to think about, and i
wnat is more pleasing to the thinking |
mind than to have something to think j
about? Dr. C. C. Abbott has catalogued .
many mammals aside from the mosquito ;
which belong to New Jersey. Among i
th ?m are seven species of bats, exclusive i
oi those found at the clubs.- Dr. Abbot . i
names five varieties of moles, nyether of
whom sing, however; several varieties of
threws who do sing; the wildcat, now
very rare, a red and a gray fox.
Os the mustelidae there are the fisher
weasel or stoat, mink, otter and skunk.
The latter wings his way as far north in
summer as Weehawken, but at autumn |
time, when the cream candy on the ;
corner of Park row and Broadway’ has j
by reason of exposure turned to choco- I
. late caram els, when the .maple sugar
from New Orleans has been put back on
' the shelves to wait for another spring
and the sassafras has turned to gold,
-when the boat bands put big green bags
on their harpsand begin to sell chestnuts
on the street, when the hand organ man
•wraps his cremona and monkey in red
) flannel and goes forth buying second
' hand bottles and rehabilitating hats, the
glad thrill of the skunk’s night song is
no longer heard in New Jersey, but far
to the southward, along the banks of the
Potomac, you will find him piercing the
gloom of the November night with his
sad but searching song.
The woodchuck, dolphin and codfish
we natives of New Jersey. Also the
turkey buzzarit, low necked clam and
politician. People who think that the
mosquito is the only mammal of Now
Jersey know little of our fauna.
Rider Haggard, who visited New Jer
sey in his mind several years ago, said:
“At the kraal in Hohokns we provided
ourselves with a supply of biltong and
elephant guns, secured 20 or 30 natives
armed with crescendoes and sharp duo
decimos and began to penetrate the
jungle. We had not gone far when our
supply of biltong ran short, and as we
began to trek toward the interior my
men began to fear that we might perish.
At this time my gnnbearer, Tippu Tib,
Jr., of Weehawken, gave a yelp of de
light, for he hud struck the spoor of a
Fulton market wagon. Hunger gave ns
all energy, and as we continued to trek
westward I could see that my men would
make a desperate struggle rather than
die of starvation.
“Opening a small boobeyack of native
spoopju and giving each a measurefill
with a loaf of mealio cake and an ele
phant’s tongue on toast, together with
the sweetbread of a hippopotamus with
green peas, our men were soon ready to
make an attack on the wagon, which was
also treking westward as the crow Hies.
“It was not long till wo heard the
crushing of twigs in the jungle, and be
fore we camped that night we had bagged
the entire delivery wagon, containing
veal cutlets, skun and unskun eels, shad,
Sirloins, tenderloins, fillets, rib roasts,
spare ribs, soup bones, pigs’ feet, oysters,
spinach and other fauna of New Jersey,
and having killed the voracious driver
we carried him away to Rahway to act
in the capacity of mystery for future
years.”
Though Mr. Haggard touches very
lightly upon the zoology of New Jersey,
one can see that the field is very wide
indeed, and with his African vocabulary 1
and with a gallon or two of New Jersey
spoopju I think I could write a very
thrilling jungle tale, locating it within
10 miles of New Yofk city. A hectic
imagination, some Congo words and the
right brand of spoopju will make the
zoology of New Jersey look like Noah’s
ark in the midst of a conflagration at sea.
P. B.—l forgot to name the spoopju of
New Jersey in the list of her zoological
wonders. With it the field is enlarged,
and one can see crocodiles with red
stomachs and unicorns with purple tails
—so lam told.
And now comes a note from a little
boy in the public school of Lorillard, a
tobacco center in this state, inquiring
about Socrates and how he stood at homo
after his name had become famous over
the then world.
Socrates suffered as do most great meu
who return to their birthplaces and seek
to impress their old neighbors. Going
back to Athens, where ho was called
“Sock” even in his full meridian, is it
strange that he should have felt down at
the heel?
I give below a notice of his lecture,
taken from tho Athenian Daily Aston
isher, which, it is said, was followed by
the suicide of Socrates, May 30, 17Q B. C.:
A rather light audience meandered into and
rattled around in the annex of the Acropolis
last evening to listen to Socrates, whom wo
nave heard so highly spoken of. Certainly,
from what lias been said of Sock, especially by
our t ile contemporary, the Athenian Evening
Rubber Stamp, wo had reason to believe that
Old Sock, the Child Wonder, would paralyze
Athens in three rounds with bare knuckles.
Suffice it to say that the audience was bitter
ly disappointed, and the Athenian Hook and
Uuhlw a and tin t 'orinthiun Soiq.'i
company No. I. aro left to the tune of about i nr
rent of the annex of the Acropolis and the
printing.
Socrates is a greatly overestimated man. He
writes fairly well, but as an orator lie gives us
a violent pain.
In tho first place, he is an extremely plain
man. lie is pop -fyed, stoop shouldered and
baldheaded, with "a mouth like a stab in the
dark.” How it ever occurred, to him to lecture
we do not under,stand. He might well bo util
ized to frighten intemperate men back into the
path of rectitude, but ho cannot pronounce a
panegyric- at least he docs not pronounce it
as we have been accustomed to hearing it pro
nounced.
On his arrival in town yesterday Socrates
became the guest of tho Corinthian Squirt
company No. 3 and is said to have visited the
" "7' VIOMPKINWUIX (
WALKING THROUGH NEW JERSEY,
public school and our brewery during the after
noon. He was asked to address Ihe primary
classes regarding sij'.ool work, which he did in
rather a clumsy manner. He then took tea
w ith, our esteemed fellow townsman, Mr. Alci
blades, who lives b.. -k of the Parthenon, and
whose announcement regarding his great clos
ing out sale of fall and winter clothing, hats,
caps, togas, sandals and general footwear may
be found elsewhere in this issue.
The great man was dumb as an oyster at all
these places, barring the public school, plead
ing fatigue, though it is intimated that he was
out late the night before.
The lecture was a rehash of what Socrates
has before written, and the funny parts of it
made the audience sob the scats loose, and the
low, sad plank of the scalding tear punctured
the jokes of this knockknecdold jew-dc-spritter
from Jimsenhurst-bj -thc-Sca.
It is said that Socrates delivered a course of
lectureson Athenian art in one of the provinces
before became .here, and 1 hat he offered a prize
consisting of a set of dishes and the game of
Tiddle-de-winks to any one who would Be
neither absent nor tardy during the entire
course. zMter some little discussion the prize
was awarded to the janitor of the hall.
The gestures of this great man came yester
day’ about an hour or so after lie got here him
self, and they were about that much behind
during the entire lecture. . a our opinion, the
press has made Socrates and given him a tem
porary notoriety which in two years will bo too
dead to skin. His gestures last night were be
neath criticism and were doubtless intended
for some other lecture.
His voice is a littjo bit thinner than his lec
ture, and his lower register does not seem to
take the chill off the hall. There sat his listen
ers last night with wet feet, having wept co
piously into their overshoes at his jokes in the
early part of the evening, and nothing that lie
said seemed to cheer them until at t lie close he
struck a little chunk of pathos and quit.
Possibly we expected too much of Socrates,
as his record, of course, was not made as a lec
turer, and he therefore cannot expect to take
rank along with some of our local elocution
ists. but we Lad heard «n much about this Gre-
THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE, AUGUST T 1593.
elan upstart that wo think, after nil, wo voice
the sentiment of our best people when we say
that Socrates la a greatly overestimated and
vulgar num whoao fame will lade e’er the rob
in* nest again.
Enough For All.
The Piedmontese are to a great ex
tent the untraveled inhabitants of an un
traveled country. Curiosity mingles with
kindness in their eagerness to see stran
gers within their doors, and any wayfarer
who chooses to make himself agreeable
and can break the monotony of their
sequestered existence repays them amply
tor his entertainment. The author of
"Country Life In Piedmont,” says:
Unbounded hospitality is character
istic of all thriving agricultural districts.
Those who gather from the plentiful
land the fruits which most immediately
contribute to man’s sustenance are al
ways glad to share with friends and
guests the bounties which might other
wise be wasted.
Every one has heard of the peasant
girl who pressed a king to partake of
some apples, assuring him that what he
did not take “would be given to the
pigs."
I once threw a word across the hedge
to a group of rustics who were gathering
their walnuts, to congratulate them on
the bountiful harvest.
“Yes,” they cried out joyously, hold
ing up their baskets and aprons. “Have
some! Have some. There's enough for
cats and dogs this year.”—Youth’s Com
panion.

ni» Name Didn’t Save Him.
When Admiral de Horsey, who some
years ago had command of tho British
fleet in tho Pacific, was the admiral of
the north Atlantic squadron, he was
one evening dining on shore at Port
Royal. Jamaica. On returning to . his
flagship alone after dinner, his way to
the boat led across the barrack square.
A black sentry of ojte of the West India
regiments halted him at the gate with,
“Who goes dar?” Groat was the ad
miral’s annoyance to find he had neg
lected to get the password before leaving
the ship. “That’s all right,” he said
carelessly, hoping to overcome the man’s
scruples by indifference, “you know'
who I am.” “Dunno nobody, ear,” re
plied thu mau pompously. “You can't
go in dar.” “Why, I'm AcfiTiiral fl*
Horsey.” “Well, you can’t go in, I don’
care if you’s Admiral do Donkey.”—Ar
gonaut.
That Old Feud.
She was a very youthful bride and had
just gone to housekeeping. Uno day a
girl friend ran in to have a little gossip
and found her in tear i.
“What is tho matter, Nell?” she asked
anxiously.
“I have had a serious dif—difference,”
sobbed the bride.
“Not with Jack?”
“No, with the cooking stove,” and she
showed her friend a bad burn on her
hand.—Boston Herald.
For tho Present.
Freddie is a bad boy, aged G, and his
brother Charlie is 4. Freddie was at his
usual game of teasing and pinching and
bullyragging his brother, when his moth
er interfered.
“Don't you know,” she said reprov
ingly, “that you aro laying Up trouble
for yourself by and by, by doing ifcrfhM
“Maybe I am,” he replied
“but Charlie is getting his now.” —Di|
