The German Schutzenfest for 1886
opened at Charleston yesterday.
o-
The quarantine regulations went
into effect at Charleston yesterday.
-
There were several casualties in
New York during the big parade,
amon'r them a number of officials
who tumbled from their horses. This
way of putting on horseback on a
saddle before is very reprehensible-
There were high old jinks at the
Centennial ball in New York after
the presidential party had left.
There were lots of people who got
disgracefully drunk and some of
these were women called in New
York ladies.
The following exceedingly witty
article appeared in the editorial
columns of yesterday's New York
Herald:
The Governor of North Carolina
and the Governor of South Carolina
are in the city, and the police courts
will witness this morning that there
i was no honest occasion for remarks
between the two distinguished
statesmen.
Let us laugh!
m m-
Brother Boscower, of the Golds
boro Headlight, is exceedingly
wrathy over Mr. Cleveland's letter
to M Oldham, of the Charleston
World. After stating pretty plainly
that he believes the Cleveland
letter to the World was made up in
the office of that paper, Mr. Bos
cower goes on to say:
Can the ex-President deny that
he told us "thiit my public life
was at an end?1' Can he deny
that he gave us to understand
that he is out of the race for the
Presidency? Can he deny that
he attributed his recent defeat 4inot
to the tariff, but to the bribery and
corruption of the Republican party
leaders?" Can he" deny that he
chargetl the Ne w York World with
not being a Democratic paper? Can
he deny it that he asked us if there
is any foundation in the rumor Miat
Mrs. Harrison has discharged all
colored servants from the White
Mouse? Can he deny of not asking
us concerning McDow, the murderer
of Capt. Dawson, and the public sen
timent in Charleston? Can he deny
it that he told us that his future
life will be devoted entirely "to the
practice of law in New York? No,
he cannot. He is too honorable a
man to be guilty of denying his
own words! By the solicitations of
friends, Mr. Cleveland may have
lately changed his mind regatding
"not being in the race any more,"1
but that doesn't release him of the
words he uttered in our presence.
In conclusion we must say that we
were, are and always will be a Cleve
land man, notwithstanding this little
episode.
There is undoubtedly ; mistake
somewhere. Mr. Boscower must
have mistaken some of Mr. Cleve
land's utterances. That is the only
way in which we can account for
some things contained in the inter
view, as published.

The Disaster at Warsaw.
A most destructive wind and hail
storm, which developed into a tor
nado, visited Warsaw, a town on
the W. & W. R, R.. 54 miles from
this city, yesterday afternoon, about
4:15 o'clock. The storm came from
the Northwest and its path seems to
have been about one half mile in
width, North and South of the town.
The destruction to property was
great, although we hear of no one
as having been seiiously injured
Two churches were prostrated, the
handsome Presbyterian Church and
the colored MethodistChurch. Other
houses were blown over or other
wise damaged, trees uprooted ana
fences prostrated The storm was
of short duration but very violent.
Hail fell to the depth of two inches
and the truck gardens in its path
are ruined. The prospects are now
poor for further shipments of truck
thence this season. The loss, it is
estimated, will amount to $12,0CO
and is proportioned as follows:
Grj. Lambert, truck and build
ings, $2,000; W. L. Hill, truck and
tenant houses, $2,000; O. P. Mid
