E. B. T. Fort Hill Proclnct, Lak* Couhty. EDITOR PLAINDBALER: -- Wo have had a few showers lately but are Mill suffering from drought. Our farmers are engaged in their harvest but find their crop very light. On Sunday night, July 17th. about midnight, a barn belonging to Thomas Wilmington, residing some three miles north of Halnesvllle, was struck by lightning and was with its contents destroyed by fire. • span of horses perished in the flames. Most of his hay crop for the present year, about ten tons of old bay, 160 bushels of oats, 350 bushels corn in crib, about 600 pounds of wool, his harnesses and va­ rious farm tools, and other articles were burned. It was with difficulty that his dwelling house, standing near, was saved from the fire. The loss is estimated at over two thousand dol­ lars. Insurance in the Mllburn Co.* twelve hundred dollars. Fiaak Smith, of Avon, has leased the farm occupied by him to J. W. Bene- han for a term of five years from the first of March next. Mr. Smith in* tends to start for Nebraska on Mon­ day, July 25th, where he has a new farm. Our 3ray'a Lake citizens are expect­ ing to soon have a new merchant with large stock of goods, a warehouse and a creamery. Mr, and Mrs. George Thomson have young son. Congratulations in or­ der. SfiFA letter from Mrs. General Logan's physician is to the effect that his patient's injuries are very serious. She is recovering, however, and was turned on her right side yesterday for the first time since the accident. JflFThe Texas Court of Appeals hv decided that the State law imposing a tax on commercial travelers from other States is constitutional, the United States Supreme Court to the contrary notwithstanding. The Texas court finds the decision in the Bobbins case by the United States Supreme Court wan unwarranted assumption of constitutional authority--an innova­ tion of Federal power." Evidently the Texan jurists have Ibeen reading the .President's letter advising the youth of the country to study the doc­ trines of Calhoun. Texas proposes to carry out those doctrines and to follow her own sweet will in taxing drummers. Irrespective of the Federal constitution. Under an influence of a Democratic administration the coun try Is making rapid progress back­ ward. •^President Cleveland has the faculty of putting his foot in it equal to any man in American politics. First he makes the order for the re­ turn of the rebel flags, that stirred the oountry to the extent that he hastened to revoke the order. And now because this order provoked caustic remark from the men who were so grossly Insulted by it, he declines an invita­ tion to be present at St. Louis, and bases his declination upon such re marks and fear for his personal safety In the language of another, this ••too thin to wash." The New York IVofldt a staunch Democratic organ says of his letter: "There Is a sort of whining tone about the president' letter, withdrawing his acceptance of tb« Invitation to St. Loots, In Septem bor, that creates the impression tha perhaps he is trying to create a little political sympathy. Another break down. Perhaps Brinski, Grover Cleve la&de's army substitute, would willing to represent fttw * consideration,1' Constipation la a universal and most troublesome dis­ order. It causes Headache, Mental De­ pression, impairs the Sight and Hearing, destroys the Appetite, and, when long continued, causes Enlargement of the Liver, Inflammation of the Bowels, and Piles. Constipation it speedily cured by Ayer's Pills. For a number of months I was troubled with Costiveness, in conse­ quence of which I suffered from Loss of Appetite, Dyspepsia, and a disordered liver. My eyes also troubled me. I was compelled to wear a shade over them, and, at times, was unable to bear ex­ posure to the light. 1 was entirely CURED BY USING three boxes of Ayer's Pills. I have no hesitation in pronouncing this medicine to be the best cathartic ever made.-- James Eccles, Poland, Ohio. I suffered from Conntipation, and, con­ sequently, from HeallMDie, Indigestion, and Piles, for years. Ayer's Pills, which I took at the suggestion of a friend, have given me effectual relief. I commenced taking this remedy two months ago, and am now free from Constipation, the re­ moval of which has caused my other troubles to disappear, and greatly im­ proved my general health. -- W. Keeier, Amherst. Mass. ' I suffered from Constipation, which assumed such an obstinate form that I feared it would cause a stoppage of the bowels. Two boxes of Ayers Pills cured me, completely. -- D.
