Excluding Mel.aurln From the
Democratic rriwury Not Likely to
Amount to Much.
Columbia, S. C., April 25.-ln view of
the arrive interest Senator Tiliman has
been manifesting 1 in Senator McLaurin s
action* and the well-known fact that the
senior senator has had Congressman Lat
imer In training for Mr. McLaurin’*
place, there is a general desire to see the
two senators meet on the stump and dis
cuss questions that interest the public.
This cannot be done without the consent
of Mr. McLaurin, who, jreiullng ihe open
ing of the campaign, can refuse to attend
a meeting w~hieh Tillman is invited to ad
dress, and after the campaign opens, Till
man, not being a candidate, cannot par
ticipate.
While a mud-slinging match might be
•difying to some, it would not be instruc
tive, and it would be poor policy on the
part of McLaurin to engage in a contest
of this kind. Besides the fact that Till
man is the recognised champion in this
kind of battle on the stump. 1
ha would be invulnerable to any
thrusts from McLaurin, his election
not being involved. So the junior senator
would have all to lose while Tillman
risked nothing.
It has been urged that McLaurin be
barred from the Democratic primary be
cause of his votes with the Republicans,
and in some quarters it is believed this
wilt be done. But such action by the
Executive Committee will be opposed by
a good many who do not agree with Mc-
Laurin. These argue that it would be a
dangerous precedent to permit the Execu
tive Committee of the party in the state,
to sit in Judgment, on a congressman’s
politics as viewed by votes in Washing
ton. This, wouid give a majority of the
committee power to settle the fate of
public men without consulting the peo
ple, and on questions not covered by tne
rules of the party. The committee will
probably be. satisfied with requiring of
Mcl-aurln the usual primary pledge, that
he will abide by the result of the elec
tion. Then the people will do the rest.
There will be opposition to cutting off
a free discussion and a fair fight. The is
sues are clear enough on which to make
a clear, clean cut contest, and South Car
olina has certainly had enough of the
other kind of lighting.

Entomologist Scott Live* Hi* lien
sons for This Prediction.
Atlanta, April 25.—State Entomologist
W. M. Scott is firm in the opinion that
there will be only thirty-five to forty
per cent, of the average peach crop this
year. The crop, he says, has been cut
down fully one-half by the intermittent
cold spells, and a further loss of 15 to 25
per cent, of the crop remaining may be
counted on.
"There are three causes for this," said
Mr. Scott to-day. "In the first place the
•terns have probably been weakened con
siderably by the recent cold spell. This
wiit cause considerable more dropping
than usual in June. In the next place the
cureuJio or beetle which lays the eggs
that makes worms, is already getting in
its work, and much is also to be feared
from the brown rot this year, because
there are still many of the spores on the
trees. Orchard men are spraying with
bordeaux, a mixture of biuestone and
lime for brown rot, and they should add
two ounces to fifty gallons of bordeaus,
for the curculio.’’

the negro educator. The Governor was
reported as saying, among other things,
that Parkhurst was a crank and that
Washington was the best man In the
party. The Governor was not talking
much when he was seen to-day regard
ing the Interview, but he would not deny
the utterances that had been credited to
him. but instead said practically in the
main that they were corrrect.

That Retain the Food and llefnse to

and the Nerves Weak, Need
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.
There is a cure for dyspepsia. Sufferers
who have tried noxious nostrums will
probably be skeptical but skepticism van
ishes when Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
arc- tried. Whether the trouble to dyspep
sia of long standing, or merely a simple
case of indigestion, relief Is prompt and
pronounced. The less the trouble the few
er tablets need be taken.
Heaviness after eating, sour stomach, ns
indicated by belching, fatigue with slight
exertion, or with no exertion at all, dis
turbed steep, nervousness, constipation,
depression, "blues,” these things can com
monly be set down as symptoms of dys
epsla. And dyspepsia is mereiy Indiges
tion in an aggravated form.
By promoting perfect digestion, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets produces strong nerves,
restful, refreshing sleep, pure blood and
good sound healthy flesh. They make the
skin clear, the eyes bright, the mind
cheerful.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are a medi
cine and more than a medicine. They di
gest the food and make it easy of assim
ilation, and they relieve the inflamed, dis
eased condition of tlie membraneous lin
ings and the glands of the stomach and
bowreis. They help the digestive organs
over the hard places, and put them into a
healthy, active condition. They effect n
quick and permanent cure. You don't
have to oontinue taking them forever,
still it is well to have a box handy and
take one at the first return of the trouble.
Perfectly well people are made sick by
eating too much, or unwholesome food,
but not if they take a tablet after eating.
Treatment with Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets does not necessitate dieting or any
change of habits. They digest the proper
food and act upon the other kind in such
a way as to make it pass off quickly and
harmlessly. You may eat and drink what
you like, when you like, and as much as
you like if you take a tablet afterwards.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
all druggists at 50 cents for full size pack
age.

A WAYCROSS PIONEER DEAD.
Ilev. IV. 11. Thomas Yields I p His
Life at Ol Years of Age,
Way-cross, Ga., April 25.—Rev. W, H.
Thomas died at his home on Thomas
street to-night ot 8 o’clock. He had been
confined to his bed since last Friday, and
his death was not a surprise. Uncle
Thomas was the oldest minister in the
South Georgia Conference. He was horn
Jan. 11, 1810, being, therefore, 91 years old
in January. He joined the conference in
18i9. The funeral will occur at Trinity
Church, of which he was an official mem
ber, Saturday morning. His sons, George
H., of Albany; Asbury of Alabama and
C. C., of Gainesville, Fla., and his daugh
ter, Mrs. Strickland, of Moniae, Ga., were
here when the end came. Mr. Thomas’
wife survives him.
In the death of Mr. Thomas, Waycroes
loses one ot its valued pioneer citizens,
lie has been so closely identified with
Waycross and it sinterests since the lay
ing of its first foundation stone, that he
is known everywhere as the father jl'
Waycross.
He was one of the first to blaze the
way for the coming city among the pines.
His voice has ever been heard in defense
of the right, and his life has been, and
Is to-day a sweet benediction to all who
came In contact with him. This faithful
patriarch has been first in every effort
made for the upbuilding of Christ’s King
dom in the town, and he has been one
of the most active workers in building
churches and in providing for the sup
port of the ministers of the Gospel. He
lias served on committee to build three
churches and two parsonages in Way
cross, and has been equaly active in the
cause of education. He preached the first
sermon ever delivered here, and his sou,
Hon. C. C. Thomas, was the first child
born in the town.
Uncle Thomas was born on Thursday,
Jan. H, 1810, in old Franklin county, Geor
gia. He was a son of William Thomas,
a farmer ami horse-drover. In his eight
een month his father removed to Ken
tucky. Mr. Thomas was married at the
age of 19 years to Miss rtarah Allcorn.
Five sons end daughters were the result
of this union. His good wife died in 1860,
while he was pastor of the Waresboro Cir
cuit. In 1866 he married Miss Laura M.
Baker, his present wife. She was tlie
daughter of Judge Richard M. Baker, of
th Charlton County Court. Of this mar
riage Col. C. C. Thomas of Waycross,
was born.
Undo Thomas' religious experience is
an interesting story. He was soundly
converted at a camp meeting near Wat
kinsvlile, Gu., Oct. 15, 1832, and Joined
the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
in Clark county. In 1815 he was made
a local preacher, and Joined the confer
ence four years later, in the same class
with the late Bishop Joseph S. Key and
Rev. A. JL Wynn.
His first appointment was the Slate
Line Mission, which embraced four coun
ties located pi Georgia. Tennessee and
North Carolina. lie received $lO9 that
year from the Home Mission
Board, and ’ also socks, clothes
and iron bars, valued at s!t. During
Ills early ministry an Indian squaw was
converted one morning us he preadied,
probably the first Indian convert in tills
country. Ho was next sent to the lilli
jay Mission, where lie had twenty-three
appointments every three weeks, the
churches being from -ten to twenty miles
apart. He rode on horseback more than
200 miles each trip, often swimming riv
ers. and pulling his horse after him. He
remained in the mountains of North
Georgia eight years. In 1857 he moved
to Hawkinsvtllc for the benefit of his
wife’s health. Uncle Thomas was In
charge of the Brunswick Circuit, with
bis home in Wayncßville, in 1858, and
during the next two years he was in
charge of the Waresboro Circuit.
While on (his. circuit he took the census
of Ware county for the slate mid United
States. He prayed at all the homes he
visited, and won the title of “praying
census taker."
In the following years Mr. Thomas w is
in charge of the Blakely circuit. Center
Village circuit, Colquitt circuit, presiding
elder of the Brunswick district. In charge
of tiie Kumter County (Florida) Mission;
for three years supernumerary at Black
shear, in charge of Nashville circuit, Cen
ter Village circuit, and the last year of
Ills active ministry he was 111 charge of
the 1 hurdles at Naylor, rilocktoti, Du|s>iit
und Homervllle. Bhortly after lielng
placed on 111* superannuated list, Uncle
Thomas located in Waycross.

THE CENTENNIAL HYMN.
An Ode to tlie University of Georgia
Composed by Prof. D. C. Barrow.
Athens, Ga., April 25.—1n a little vol
ume entitled “Prayer Service Hymns,
University of Georgia," recently issued,
is the following Centennial 'Hymn, com
posed by Prof. D. C. Barrow, who flll3
the chair of mathematics in the univer
sity;
A hundred years of toil and care
Our mother freely gave,
A hundred years of thought and prayer,
O, mother, kind and brave;
And now from all her borders wide
Old Georgia's sons are come.
High swell their hearts with Joy and
pride,
And glad they gather home.
Wide swings our mother’s open gate,
Hard beats her heart with love,
No king who sits in regal state,
Can such array approve.
Her stalwart sons are here in bands,
No homage do they share,
She sees the labor of her hands,
She sees her answered prayer.
Our rock-ribbed hills forevermore
Their silen't strength express.
Our wide plains yield a bounteous store,
A people rich to bless;
And Georgians love our Georgia land,
From Dade to Glynn's blue tide;
But, mother, though our land be grand,
Thy sons are Georgia's pride.
O God, who gave the red hills might.
And spread the fertile land.
Thy word has been our mother’s light,
Her strength, thy guiding hand.
In simple faith her sons were taught.
To work and watch and pray.
To shun the paths with evil fraught,
And walk in wisdom's way.
Prof. D. C. Barrow, is a brother of Hon.
Pope Barrow, of Savannah, a most layal
son of the university, and one of the
strongest men in the faculty. The hymn
composed by him will be used extensive
ly during the Centennial Commencement
exercises. The collection of hymns in
which it appears are those used each
morning in the devotional services In
college chapel.

A WIDOWER? ROMANCE.
Son firings .About Ylarriage ot
Father to His Old Sweetheart.
Columbia, S. C„. April 26.-J. H. Abbey
of St. George, this state, came here yes
terday, met the Monday train from the

ney of Ithaca, N. Y. The couple drove
to a hotel, had dinner, and after telling
their story to the guests, were married.
When she was Mary Love of Ithaca, pret
ty and 19, Abbey had been engaged to this
lady. Jealousy caused a quurrel, the en
gagement was broken and Abbey came
South. Yhat was thirty-one years ago.
Since then both had married, Mrs. Mc-
Kinney having two and Abbey being the
father of ten children. The lady had
been n widow ten years; Abbey a widow
er aibout fifteen months.
The South Carolina merchant had lost
all trace of his family and friends in
Ithaca, but last fall one of his sons went
on trip there and called on Mrs. Mc-
Kinney. She acknowledged to have been
recently reading his father’s old love let
ters with pleasure mixed with sadness.
The son wrote his father and started the
old couple to correspond. And the mar
riage last evening was the result of young
Abbey's efforts In that direction.
