By Saturday nidit 1 ho heavy ,
o (1
work in the construction of the ^
new nuticling of the Uolumbia ^
college will Iki completed. '1 ho
extent of this gr'int building, or w
group of IniildingH, cannot ho apprevia
Wd until one linn walked all (t
over it in company with Prcaident
W W Daniel and Mr V II sv
Hyatt. It is a great piece of ^
work, and is a credit to the Met ho- ^
diets of &outh Carolina. There will ^
not lie in the State an instiTit ion (s
more comfortahly housed or with w
a ntore compact and at the same ;}l
time more adequate arrangement. ,,,
The entire job will ho ready h>
the time the college wants it, the ir
ln-=t week in September. sj
Tito immensity of tho building c;
can best ho appreeiat'd vlmn it is b
stated that 12 miles of electric m
wiring have been used, and over a\
tw?? ears of paint. There are (J
?6"> rooms in the college and its ir
surrounding buildings. The ir
architect has combined muny d
things in making this a harnton- hi
ions whole. Appearance was not di
alight od, for the building will he w
admired by every one; couifort tc
was sought after, for there will ai
he perhaps a mile of porches, and ai
there is a mile of hallway. Con- 8]
vt'iiieiic* is etTected; for tho dor- w
mitoriep all nre closo by to the si
dining ball and to the auditorium si
above it and to the recitation li
room* in the administration hinld- 11
ing; and the buildings, ii1 placed d
end to end, would stretch oyer tl
half a mile, whereas they are all g
grouped in such a way that from I
a common centre the most re- a
mote point is very near. n
There are ho many points of 11
excelenco which are really feature* 6
that it would he difficult to enu- ^
marate them properly. A11 of the '
recitation rooms are well lighted; c
the auditorium i* one of the most '
* - ? '
comioriauie in the State, has a 1
stating capacity of 1,200, and n
has eight exits; the diniog room 9
does not appear to ha large, hut 9
it is said that 500 can he seated D
there without a discomfort; tha 9
music rooms are arranged in tha
most approved manner so that e
the light will fall directly upon h
the piano, and the desire of the 8
architect was to arrange tha n
rooms in such a manner that no ^
r
pupil could annoy another while p
practicing; the broad piazzas, the v
gymnasium and the bathing pool,
the science hall and the literary i
halls?all these are provided for d
in thi?* modern college building. 0
The general effect of the build- I
ing is very pretty. The aduunis- a
tration building itself is topped t
i>t> i ? * * *
a vw n vi ttMII.II I l^CS t<J 11 pOlIll f
120 feot above tho ground; th? i
front is made ornate by a portico
surmounting four shapely pillars \
reaching to the top of the build- t
ing and in turn crowned with j
beautiful capitals ; pressed brick |
and sand stone trimmings are i
made more massive in appearance |
by the foundations which are of i
solid granite constructed in a I
skillful manner. On each sido of <
the administration building is a i
building somewhat Grecian in ap- i
pearance, which a Ids very much <
to tho general appearance. j

? ? ? - i
A special from Charleston to
10 Augusts Chronicle says : A
torv ix in circulation hero, ?nrl j
comes from up the Rtnte, to <
o> ?-iT-ot lint former President j
; ihcrt Keith Dirgan, of the |
tidependeul Cotton Millcomp-j
ny of 1) ?rliiit?ton. did not com- j
ut suicide, and in fact !? not I
eai. The rumor states that ,
30 body h is never been viewed i
y the jury, and the only time '
int it wn been bv the coroner '
uis when thrt county official
an culled to the law office and
mnd the former ? fficer seated
i 11 chair at a desk, with the
hisky and carbolic acid on the
ti*'-. According to the story,
I r. I) i re an was carried to his
OIHH 111 a closed GirHige. It
raid tiint tile stricken homo
is close 1 to c i!iora , and uoody
suv Mr. Dirgio in the
iskut, which w as lata r interred,

masters of I) rlington. The

nance company, t h e state
gent of wiiich is located at
olumbia, 1-: investigating the
latter, with a view of ascertain- A
lg whether Mr. Dargan really
iod and was buried. It is *
rgued that whisay is an nntiote
for carbolic acid poison, li
ith which Mr. Dargan is said e
? have killed himself, and that
j long as whisky is druna the 8
:id can he safely taken into the v
patera. The presence of the
liisky on the desK, near the
iicide, is cited to show a posible
Knowledge of this fact, and
) sustain the theory that the 1
lan never Killed himself. Ad- 1
itional color is given to the 1
lieory from the part that Pe 1
ram Dargan had iu the affair,
t strucK tnauy poople aa a moat
atounding proposition that a
nan could idly and calmly ait 1
o the room and allow his brothi
r to t*KO poison, and after his
i i. a. 1 -i ?
e?iu men give me alarm. The
heory that no 9uicide was comaitted
olfers au explanation of
his feature of the case, and the 4
(
ailuro of Mr. Pegram D.argan to
q&ku any statement at the in*
uest, when put on the stand,
imply saying that the stateaont
of his brother spoke for it- i
elf, is construed to mean that
ie did not wish to involve himelf
by assertiug that his brothr
was dead, when he had not
:illed himself, according to the
tory. The story is a most renarKable
one and is thought to
ie a faxe, but it is being very
lorsistently circulated here and
s published for what it is
vorth."
The Charlotte Observer of
ast Saturday published, we unlerstand,
an elaborate account
if the rumors referred to. The
^aldington News, however, is

here is "no ground whatever"
or the rumor that R. K. D.irgan
a not dead. Tho News says :
"Tlie people of Darlington
lave passed through trying
,iri.es during the past two weeks
and rumo.s have been flying
thick and fust. But the most
remarkable of all is the report
that Mr. Robert Keith Dargan
19 not dead. Telegrams have
beon received in Darlington from
different points asking for information,
the report having
spread nl! ov?r the State. The
only way to huh wer such rumors

rro at that. In the intense ex*
3itement which has pervaded
ihe community ?f late it ia but
iatur>l for people to talk, but

and net believe everything

to find out whether it is true

Convulsion,
Fits, then
Epilepsy.
Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine
has been so successful in
curing these brain-wrecking
diseases that there is ever)'
reason to believe tliat even the
most hopeless cases can be
benefited, if not fully restored.
We will be pleased to refer
any one thus afflicted to many
who now enjoy the blessing of
health, affeer years of hopeless
suffering. i
"I have a son that had brain fover |
when two years old._followed by fits of
...nm uu>u no was prooouncea i
Incurable. I spent hundreds of dollars
for him, without relief. After nl>out I
llfteen years he became so bad that we ,
sent him to Longcllff hospital for the '
Insane, at Logansport, Ind. lie was
there nearly three years, but he continued
to grow worse, so we brought
him home July SO. 1002, In an awful
condition. Me had lost his mind almost
entirely. He hardly knew one of the \
family; could not even find his bed;
was a total wreck. Ho had from 6 to ]
10 llts a day. Wo were urgod to try
Dr. Miles' Nervine, and before the first
bottle was used, we could see a change 1
for tho better. We have given It to
him ever since, and he has had but
two very light spells since last August,
1903, and then he was not well other
ways. Wo pronounce him cured, ns he
can work nnd go anywhere. If any one
wishes to ask any questions concerning
this, they are at liberty to do so."

first Dottle will benefit. If It fails, he
will refund your money.
