Editor?Anderson Intelligencer :
The idle hours of an idle woman
hare led me to think that comment
made oooakiobally on pointed subjects
in The Intelligencer might find read
ing during! thje idle moments of anoth
er woman.
Comment, ; for instance: "Are, wo
men stingy<?T Many women on con
sidering that subject said, "i'.V.''
It. has been said a woman
can throw out through the window
with a spoon more than a man can
bring i? through the .door with a
shovel.
Laughably, i? she liberal?
A man says she needs but a glance
at tho dry goods window und her
heart and pocket both leave her; and
a young man says athletics taught
him to run quickly from the confec
tioner's stand or ruin stared him in
the appeal of her face. This is her*
lib?ral turn of mind.
She will pay her last dollar for the
summer hat, the pretty gown, the
neat shoes?because-she is liberal.
Churches, schools, operas, etc., would
receive her largest attention.
A gentleman, in whom her best in
terests are centered, asys: "Pauline,
I believe I shall pay $8.69 ihis year
for my suit?it will do ine very well."
She dries her inward tears that come
from her,heart and exclaims: "Alon
zolpay $12.00, anyway.; you don't loot
well in oheapt things."
Ofeeurss, the trend ?? this libsri
ity may be questioned, and even criti
cised, as *failing heavily on the shoul
ders of the uncomplaining hero; but,
for instance, observe the point of criti
cism ro'veroed: The self-supporting
woman, whose instincts for self pre
servation should bo large, and upon
whom the duty of economy is impress
ed by loved and thoughtful ones. She
earns and has no mtire Care for the
rainy day. than a swcHow has for a
summer day; delights in it-rgivos her
time for reflection on tho glorious
liberality with which sho held , the
field wl'.r? the bat was hers?how
she spent the dollars and enjoyed
them.
She may fal? a victim to th? dis
position of spoilsTbut she refleotB that
it is not good for man?any man?to
be ?lone in the spending of hic mon*
oy, and she trusts the "not impossible
she" may mark her for its own, when
ehe may otill continue ia the 'whole
some enjoyment of life, liberality and
pursuit of happiness.
Women live by abundance?love,
life, money, air, and sometimes don't
have enough of either; they lov? mon
ey because they live, grow' and nro
beautiful by it, and the only woman
whose soul dies for money is the wo
man whofifl &nnj hoM en lanndn l? l?ca
.for.
She is "stingy," it"}is^i?id,'; th*
bsohelor, for inotauoo?the_ old bach
elor whom she refuses, because she
loves money and cappinegs; ho says
she is stingy in food on the table.
This may bo too true, a terrible reve
lation of the baseness of complainant,
who expects a 50-oent dinner and all
appurtenances for 25 cents, or the
accusation may be delivered from the
centre of a fault-finding household.
She sees the income of the family
flood out through' tho big end of the
horn, and ehe is trying to curtail at
the little end. ,

"I Go to Chin* to Ole."
In San Francisco lived a lawyer,
age, aay 60?rich in money,- rich in
intellect?a bueiueas man with many
interests. This lawyer resided in bis
bachelor apartments, with a Chinese
servant named "Sam."
8am and his master had been to
gether for fifteen years. The servant
knew the waqts of his employer as
though he were his other self; no
orders were necessary. If there was
to be company?one guest, or a hun
dred?Sam was told the number, that
was all, and everything was provided.
This servant was cook, valet, watch
man, frieud. No stray, unwished for
visitor ever reached tho master to rob
him of hie rest when at home.
If extra help was wanted, Sam sc
oured it; ho brought what was needed;
and when the lawyer awakoned in the
! morning it was to tho singing of & tiny
music box with a clock attachment,
set for 7 o'clock. The bath was ready ;
a clean shirt was there on the dress
er, with studs and buttons in place;
collar and scarf were near; the suit of
olothes desired, hung over a ohair; the
right pair of shoes, polished like a
mirror, were at hand, and on the man
tel was a half-blown rose, with the
dew otill upon it, for a buttonaire;
down-stairs, the breakfast, hot and
savory, awaited. When the good man
was ready to go to his office, silent as
a shadow stood Sam in tho hallway,
with overcoat, hat and cane in hand.
If the weather was threatening cu
umbrella was substituted, for the cane;
the door was opened and the mas
ter departed. When he returned at
night, or. his approach the ? jor swung
wide.
8am never took a vacation; be seem
ed not tq either eat or sleep. Ho was
always near when needed; he disap
peared when he should. He knew
nothing, ??d be kscw every thing. For
weeks scarcely a word might pass be
tween these two men, they understood
Ieach other so well.
. The lawyer grew to have a great af
feotion for his servant. He paid him
a hundred dollars a month, and. tried
to devise other ways to show his
gratitude,. but Sam wauled nothing,
not even thanks. All ho desired was
the privilege to serve. But one morn
ing as Sam poured his master's coffee
he aaid, quietly, without a shade of
emotion on his yellow face: "Next
week I leave you." i
The lawyer smiled.
"Next week I leave you," repeated
the Chinaman; "I hire for you better
man."
The lawyer set down his cup of oof
fee?lie looked at the white-robed ser
vant?he felt the ?an was in earnest.
. "So you are going to leave me. I
do not pay yoo enough, oh? That
Dr. Sanders who was bare?he kuows
what a treasure you are. Don't be a
fool, Sam; I'll make it a nuudred and
fifty n?month?say no morel"
'"/.y'.*Next .week I leave you?I go to
China," said the servant,' impassive
"Oh, I see, you are going back for
a wife?all right, bring her here?you
will return in two months 1 I do not
object; bring j?ur w?i? here?thoro is
work for two' to keep this place in
order?-tho place is lonely, anyway.
?il see the. collector of tho port my
and arrange, your pasesge pa
pers."
"I go to China next week--?I need
jib papers-?I never come back,*| said
the man, with exasperating calmness
and persistence.
"By God* you shall not gol'' said
the lawyer.
"By God, I will!" answered the
Chinaman.
It was the first time in all their ex
perience together that the servant
had used such language, or such a
.?^he toward his master.
The lawyer pushed his chair back,
and, after an instant, said quietly:
"8am, yos must forgive mo, X spoke
quiokly-?I do not own you?but tell
me, What have I dorio-?why do you
leave me this way, you know I need
you?" _
"I will not tell you why I go?-you
laugh:"
- "No, I shall not laugh."
"You will." .
; "I Hay, I will not!"
"Very well; I go to China to diel"
"Nonsense, you can die hero.
Haven't I agreed to send your body
back if y ou die before I do?"
"I die in four weeks, two daysl'?

The next day a new .Chinamen ap

vant knew everything aodv nothing,

ANDERSON, S. C.
Tarheels Fought.
Tho Gaffney Lodger Bays: i
Particulars havo reached Elizabeth '
City, N. 0., of a bloody fight which
ooourred at Davis's store,in Providenoo
Township, about seven miles from that
city, Saturday night.&The origin of
the trouble, which was between tho
MoPhersons and Jennings, seems to
have been oaused by the attention that
was bestowed on one of the McPher
sons and one of the Jennings boys by
a young lady of the neighborhood.
Some time ago, as it is reported,
John Pritohard, who is a member of
the MoPherson group, gave the young
lady in the ease a watch. She in
turn loaned or gave it to young Grover
Jennings. Pritohard saw Jennings
with thewatoh ana it was decided
that all should meet one night last
week and settle the matter. The
meeting was postponed until Saturday
night, when all met a Davis's store
and the melee began.
Just how it started no one is able to
tell, but when the smoke had cleared
away it was found that three of the
MoPherson boys were badly out,- two
of them seriously, one having his
throat out and the other had his ear
entirely severed. Daniel Jennings,
father of the Jennings boys, aged
about sixty years, was badly out in the
shoulder, and two of the Jennings
boys were out, one in the arm- and the
other in the faoe. During the fight,
which lasted for some time, Mrs.
Davis, in front of whose house, the
fight ooourred, acted as surgeon and
bound up the wounds of each injured
oombatant as he fell. .
William J. Bryan CalU on Presi
dent Roosevelt.
Washington, Jan, 21.?William J.
Bryan called on President Roosevelt
at tho White House today. He was
cordially greeted by Mr. Boossveit as
well as' by a number of Republican
senators and representatives who hap
pened to be in the exeoutive offices at
the time of his visit.
Mr. Bryan was ' ushered into the
cabinet room, which was filled with
people. The Pr?sident was engaged
but as so ou as he learned that the
noted Democrat was in the cabinot
room went to him and grasped his hand
cordially. "Corns in here," said the
President, who piloted Mr. Bryan into
his. private room, whero5 joined by
former Senstor Jones of Arkansas,
they remained five or ten minutes.
At the conclusion of the interview
Mr. Bryan said to newspaper reporters
than his talk with the president had
been cordial'and satisfactory, andjthet
they had discussed, several matters.
"It was a pleasure to cob *aend his at
titude on some things," said Mr. Bry
an.
"Not on all things, then?" be wss
asked.
"No, of course not," said Mr. Bryan.
"I believe in speaking wall of any
policy that is good, regardless of what
party is supporting it. I have often
been accused of being a Populist be
oauBo I have given my support to some
thingB advocated by that party. I
suppose I will now be accused of 'be*
ing a Republican because I agreb with
President Roosevelt's views on' some
things. I think the President.,unmis
takably right in h?| demands -as to 1
railroad legislation, and I told him
so. I also think that Mr. Gerfield of "
the bureau of corporations is right in
recommending that corporations be re
quired to take out federal licenses. I
likewise believe in a income tax and .
hope to see it brought about."
"How can if. be brought about?"
"By a constitutional; amendment,"
Mr. Bryan suggested.
