WIHGHBSTERSUSED In South Carolina Election. Manager Shot. SMALL BUTTLE FOLLOWS Establishment of White Repub licans Poll The cause. K . Gre»-n* go 1, S. C., Nov. 9 In j ' yesterday ’s election the people of this section had a forceful remin der of the days of 1876-1880. Al ) though unusually qu:et as to this preoiuc', intense excitement pre vailed ail day because of the eLoot ing ot Bo»z Etheridge, one of the manage) is of election at Phoenix, in tne morning, and a subsequent not between the whites and b’ucks at that plnce, in which one of the Talberts and several negroes were mortally wounded. Phoenix is ten miles from here, and near the Edgefield line. It is the home of the lalberts, the cra dle of republicanism in Abbeville county. Because of this fact, it is said, the negroes, acting stractions. went to the bcx in larg er numbers than any other in or der to give R. R. Talbert, candi date for congress a larger We. It is also stated that th® negroes w ere armed with winchesters. From parties returning from Phoenix late this evening it is learned that the negroes had a separate box in charge of T. P. Talbert, into which Mich as could not v«te in the regular boxes would deposit certificates that they were net allowed to vote for R. R. Talbert for congress, which cerli fieates he expected to use in his contest for Latimer’s seal. Mr. Etheiidge attempted to take charge of it and was shot dead by one or more of the negroes who were crowding around it. Im mediately the few white men who could procure arms or had them opened fire on the crowd and continued to shoot them as they ran. It is not known definitely how many negroas were hit nor how seriously. T. P. Talbert was seriously wounded, but managed to reach hit home a mils off. He was still living at sundown and is not like ly to be further molested, as he has never been prominent as a leader. The whits people, several hundred strong, aro well armed, cool and determined, and if ths Rheumatism lea blood tbiseeae a«d otrty a blood rune dy can cure it. So many people make the mistake of taking remedies which at best are only tonics and cannot possi bly reach their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith, Greencastle, Indiana, says: “For years I have suffered with Sciatic Rheuma tism, which the best physicians were wn able to relieve. I took many patent medicines but they did not seem te reach my trouble. I gradually grew - worse until I was nn able to take my food handle myself in sn 7 wa 7> I was abw*' LfsJgßJ*. lutely helpless.

Colonel Wolsej encountered the ecurg® i.i Soutl America and preserved I.is hea'th He walked unharmed amid the pestilence. His plan was a simple one. He says: “Yellow fever can be prevented, in my opinion, by aptem salts and cured in the same way. The salts taken internally by a well person, subject to infec tion by environment or other con ditions, preserve ’he stomach from furmil g a fatal or dangerous rind. This rind is dissolved by the salts when promptly treated- This ex periment, we understand. w?« hen aficially made at Brunswick, in this state, when yellow fever pre vailed some years ago. Mr, Dusty of Memphis, who sur vived two epidemics, after heroic «uccor of the sick and dying, says The most successful doctor in our day of desolation was a rather uncouth country physician. He, lost but c' v case and that a des perate one. His treatment was at first ridiculed, but it was hsnefi cient as well as simple. H« allowed his patients to drink as much water as they desired on one condition viz., that a pinch of bicarbonate of soda be mingled with the fluid. He was. like the regular practitioners, careful of convalescents in thwarting the gratification of devouring hunger. The human system, in such ex tremities, is a mere shell, and easily shattered by any dietetic ex cess or imprudence. Many deaths occur after convalescence because of this improvidence. If we were going to Cuba, our satchel should contain supplies of epsom sal‘s and bicarbonite of so da. The regular doctors may pooh-pooh these remedies, but Colonel Wolsey and Mr Duffy pr seilts facts that are worth qaite as much as learned theories, and. from results, apparently, a great deal more.—Augusta Chronicle. —TT— ——3T WELL PLEASED CUSTOM ERS. We have sold hundreds and hundreds ot the McCall Bazar Patterns since we have taxen the agency, and upon inquiry of the salesladies in the department,we find that not one pattern has ever been returned as unsatis factory, and with hundreds of sales, not one word of criticism ever been heard against the McCall Patterns. On the contrary many ladies are delighted with the McCall Patterns, because reliable, and because the prices are only 10 and 15 cents each. —None High er.
