DID IT HIT?
~Or Has it Gone on to Tangle up With
The Sun,
For some days the papers have had
startling articles about a comet dis-
covered by the scientists. that was head-
ing for this little earth of ours at th®
~| rate of 1,200 miles a minute, and would
hit us full in the face symetime. to-day,
. knocking this sphere into smithereens or
f | shoving it off into some other quarter
lof the erial world than where it has
navigated since history first informed
us of its existence. But if the earth
should be spry enough to dodge the
swift-winged comet and make a miss
hit of it, then, the astronomers say, it
would slip right by us and tall heels
over head into the burning arms of the
sun, in which case there would be such
an increase of solar heat as to siagle
and fry into cracklings oall we fellows
caught strolling around on mother
earth. }
In consequence of all this calamitous
prediction by the aforemeationed scien-
tists, there has been some quaking in
2! boots and knocking of weak knees over
the uncertainty of the fate in store for
us. Butsofar the earth seems all
right, asup to this writing we havenTt
felt anything like an earthquake shock
or the kick of a mule, neither discovered
any sizzing of frying of the fat on our
corporosity. And if you are lucky
enough to read this in the REFLECTOR
| this evening you may know that the
earth is still in good shape and able to
do its own turning. As it is Saturday
evening and the boys are tired we donTt
make any special promise about issuing
an extra with a picture of the comet in
case it comes along later.

Had you noticed the number of
siiangers'that are seenT on our streets
most every day?. This means that
more people are interested. in Green-
ville than you are aware of. Now the
question arises, what are. the citizens
doing to increase thy interest ot these
suangers in our town? Are any. spe-
cial efforts made to point. out. induce-
Is this the case, or are such prospectors
as come among us leit to roam about
alone, learn what they can and go away
Without any attention being shown
them? Herein is where a Board ot
Tiade could do a good work. These
stiangers might be taken in hand by a
committee and shown around, statistics
end excellent tarming lands pointed out,
the hee Ithtulnezs of the community, our
things brovght to the'r attention. If
there was the proper organ~zation here
and a half effort made the ReeLEvror
believes faciories could be siarted in
Greenville before th's year is out.

The Committee Progressing.
The citizenTs water works committee
had a good meeung last night. The
committee unanimously favors a regu-
lar system of water works and are
.| prosecuting their plans in that direc-
tion.» Much corresponding has already
been done and they are now negotiating
with a civil engineer to make a survey
of the town and prepare the specifica-
tions and estimate. One contractor has
already submitted a bid for putting in
a system.

_ Sarurpay, Marcu 14ru, 1896.
om
Phe anti-option bill of Col. Hatch,
which has been killed so often and
which passed the House in the last
Congress and came near enough ° to}
being passed by the Senate to badly
frighten its epponents, is about to be
killed once more. The House commit-
tee on Agriculture has agreed to table
The report of the majority of the
Senate Election Committee, written by
a Chandler, of N. H., in favor of the res-
olution for investigating the election of
the Alabama legislature that elected
Senator Morgan exposes a Republican
plot to get a majority in the Senate by
unfair means. Their purpose is to use
the Populists to help them pass this
resolution. Then to, have the investi-
gation committee report in favor of un- |
seating Senator Morgan, when the Pop-
ulists are again expected to join them
in voting for the adoption of that re
port.
The Republicans in the House hope
to get some campaign thunder out of
the hearings which have,been arranged
by a sub-con mittee ot the House com"
mittee on Ways and Means for next
week. These hearings are announced
to be for the purpose of ascertaining
whether the reciprocity treaties and ar-
rangements made by the Icte Mr. Blaine
during the last republican administra-
_ tton were of sufficient benefit to this
~ country to make their renewal advisa.
able; and what tarift andT customs regu�
ations in foreign countries are detri-
mental to an increase in our foreign
business. As to the reciprocity trea-
ties; the Democratic Congress which
repealed them ascertained. by thorough
: investigation that this country received
no benefit at all trom the most
. of them,
and from the others so little nel
whole business was thrown overboard~
Senators Morgan and Chandler
made a very good imitation of a mon-
key out of Senator Hoar during the
~somewhat acid debate which; followed
Senator HaleTs rather remarkable pro-
eeeding of having read a statement
made by the Spanish minister, which
accused three Senators by name with

President Cleveland is Ilo ing the
Senators to monopolize thé talk on
Cuban affairs, and they have certainly
done a lot of it that was entirely un-
necessary, this week, igasmuch as the
acceptance of the report of the commit-
tee on foreign relations in favor of the
Senate accepting the House resolutions
as a substitute for its own resolutions
was a foregone conclusion from ~the
first. And talking� wasnTt _the only
unnecessary thing the Senate did this
week, While the report of its com-
mittee was pending it adopted & reso-
lution calling on the President for all
the informntion in his pcssession con-
cerning the present state ot affairs in
Cuba.
cussed atthe last cabinet meeting and
Cuban affairs were fully dis-

ing sent a trusted agent to Cuba to
find out just how things ang and of his
intention to sendT a. "message to. Con-
gress on the subject, but neither the
President nor any member of his cab-
inent will talk about it, at least not for
publication, Qne thing can be set
down as certain. Congress has been
s:ampeded, bat the administration will

the United States thousands of lives
and millions of dollars.
oShe Did so When She Was Young.�
A story is being told of a young lady
who fuuiid.a package of love letters
that had been written to her mother by
her father befure they were married.
The daughter saw that she could have
alittle sport, and read them to her
mother, substituting her own name for
that of her mother, and ~a fine young
man for that of her father.
The mother jumped up and down
in her chair and shifted her feet and
seemed, terriby
she forebade her daughter having any-
thing to do witha young man who; would
write such nonsensical stuff.
When the young lady handed the
ters to her mother to read the house
eso still that one could hear the
growing in the back yard.

Borchgrevink, the Norwegian Explorer.
Borchgrevink is a Norwegian, some
30 years of age, of medium height and
of modest mien, and has the typical
Scandinavian fairness of hair and flor-
idity of complexion. His face gives
signs of that determined spirit and
tixity of purpose which Norse explorers
have shown from the early vikings to
this latest voy ager. His hardships, i in-
cident to service before the mast in a
whaler; were almost ignored, and he
dwelt on the Antarctic sea and its con-
ditions, The intelligent audience noted
his impersonal and retiring disposition,
and showed its own appreciation by
generous applause.
