Ir NEGRO FRIGHTENED OFF. " Attempted to Break Into House in Absence of Men of Family. St. .Matthews, Nov. 10.?Frank Phillips, a negro, was to-day placed under arrest, charged with attempt ing to break into tne nome 01 james Ott, a citizen of the western portion of the county, on last Wednesday night. Mr. Ott and his young son were away at the fair and the young daughters of Mr. Ott were at home alone. Late in the night the young ladies were awakened by an assault upon the front door. They screamea for helpj but before fleeing the villian made a final effort at the back door. Help came in response to theii cries. A Chat With the Boys. fx*This concludes our chats. I hope you will try to live up to what I. have been telling you. If you do, you will make men of whom our country will be proud of. I am afraid parents and teachers do not pay enough attentioE to the young folks in this respect Patriotism should be taught early Every child should memorize the words of our national hymn, America tnd should be able to sing it if called upon. This inspires one to love his country and will make him a bettei citizen. Respect and love for the flag should also be taught. "Hats off! f Along the street there comes A flare of bugles and ruffle ol drums, A flash of color beneath the sky, Hats off! The flag is passing by!" A French boy was coming to make his home in America. As his ship neared New York, he saw the Statue of Liberty, a gift of France to the United States, and a perpetual re. minder of her good feeling toward us. He went upon the deck and sang H' America with great zest and enthusiasm. After singing it through he ?ang the French national air, The -? * UV 1 ... Uc i-Marstrueusc, wuu teas cuiuusiaow. was welcoming the new country and biding farewell to the old. I am sure he has made a good citizen. Here is a fact I want you to think about: "We get out of life jusi fchat we put In it." Now, if you put little care and thought in your train\ ing, you need not expect great results by and by. WThen you are inclined to shirk, remember you are not only cheating the world but yoursell worst of all. Dr. Arnold, whose long experience with young men at Rugby gave weight to his opinion, declared that the difference between one boy and another consists not so f: much in talent as in energy. Another defines genius as an immense capacity for workN. After listening* to Qne of Edmund Burke's most eloquent speeches, his brother who |p thought more ot;fun than study, said, "I wonder how Ned managed to get H? all the brain in the family; but I remember now, when we were at play he was always at work." But all work and no play makes Jack a dull rboy. The idea then is to have certain hours for study or work and also gh.:. a time for recreation. If the time of training seems long, console yourself with the thought pp-' that the work done later on will be of a better grade. King Edward, of pH England, who died last year was sixty years preparing for his real lifework, but when the end came, he could say, "I have done my duty." ->v ' That was worth more to him than all earthly wealth and honors. "Duty" is a small word, but how much it means! It makes us do things that C seem well-nigh impossible. Christ was thirty years preparing to preach. So you see it takes time to prepare for one's life-work. It is not wise to rush into any work before you are prepared for it. "Learn to labor and to wait." While it is all important that you lf : should learn to read and write, there are some things even more important. First, learn to be true; second, be i pure in thought, language, and life; third, be unselfish. You see there are a good many things to learn, if you wish to be a well rounded man by . and by. I have been a close observer of mankind and I find there are very few people who can control them? selves, yet we are told "a person who ruleth himself is greater than he that taketh a city." A certain philosopher claims that the hardest lesson a child has to learn is to obey; I have not found it so. The hardest lesson I have tried is the mastery of self. I must admit. ? - I haven't mastered it fully yet, but I do not give up easily. The time to get dominion over self is when you are young. It will then become a habit, and you will find it no trouble. I started too late, having had to learn j by'experience. Begin at once and by some enon vuu uau ai nasi, uc complete masters of self. You control your pony with bit and bridle. Reason must help you to control your emotions and passions. When some one says anything unpleasant to you, the angry flush shows on your cheeks. You should take yourself firmly in H*/ ' * WEARY OF CRITICISM. Members of Greenville's Police Commission Hand in Resignations. Greenville, Nov. 11.?A a meeting of city council to-night three members of the police commission, Dr. W. j C. Black, chairman, T. O. Lawton. j Jr., and T. F. Jamison, handed in J their resignations and asked that . I they be accepted immediately. ;j It is believed that this-action re (; suited from considerable criticism ; J made upon the police commission ; i lately and from some friction which [ I has been manifested between this j body and the city council in the past : few weeks in regard to alleged negli gence to prosecute criminals in the city. A closed conference between the two bodies was held several days ago, at which appears to have been mani' fest little friendly feeling between the ' two, and a meeting of the Law and ^ Order league of this city was held ^ yesterday, at which it is believed some criticism of the poMce commis1 sioners was made by local ministers. In handing in his resignation, Dr. " Black stated that he was tired of the ' criticism which had been heaped upon > Vi fho lonrlocfc tut; tuumusoiuu nuw uuiu vuv. >u > and the supposed upholders of the ' law. The resignations were accepted ' and a meeting will be held shortly to supply the vacancies. / Rogers Dies from Injuries. Spartanburg, Nov. 8.?Clyde Rogers, the deaf and dumb boy who was run over by a freight train between the Spartanburg junction and * Fairforest after running away from > school at Cedar Springs, died at the t Springs hospital this morning at ? 11:30 o'clock after suffering for over a week. The boy's skull was fractur. ed and he was otherwise injured. The body will be sent to his home, near Florence, where it will be ; buried. 4 Dies from Burns. ' Brunson, Nov. 10.?Mrs. Lillian ' Ginn, wife of Angus Ginn, of Brunson, was burned to death this after: noon about 3 o'clock, her clothing be1 coming ignited from a burning match on the hearth. She was burned so ' badly that death resulted in a few ' hours. A. T. Ginn, her husband, is ' one of Brunson's most prominent business men. Mrs. Ginn was alone in the house ' at the time. She ran screaming to ' the front door and her sister came to her assistance and summoned relief. i ?? i i 'hand and reason with yourself of the > folly of allowing the passions to . have full sway over the body. It , checks and disturbs the action of the vital organs, so is unhealthy a glance in the mirror wm snow you an unpleasant countenance. Not only is it unhealthy, but. makes the ftce ugly. If you want to live a long time, you must learn to curb the emotions. God gave man dominion over all the animals, but that does not mean that you are to mistreat them. Some times I see boys who are rough and cruel to the faithful animal that has made his daily bread. Boys, it cuts me like a knife when I see you do that. I must think it is from thoughtlessness rather than cruelty, j You sustain the same relation to God that your horse does to you; I don't think you would like to be treated so roughly. The Golden Rule is as applicable to the lower animals as to man. Be kind to everything and you will be happy. For us all "there sleeps a solemn day" ahead. Live right, boys, then you will not fear it. "Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them." A young man came to an aged professor and told him, with a smiling face, his parents had given him per- = mission to study law, which was the chief desire of his life. He was in raptures and explained that he would spare no labor or expense in perfect- e ing his education. The old man, after a listening with great patience and kindness, gently said, "Well, and o when you finish your studies what i< do you mean to do then?" "Then I sj shall take my degree," answered the young man. "And then?" asked the o venerable friend. "And then," continued the youth, "I shall have a S] number of difficult cases and shall at- h tract notice, and win a great reputation." "And then?" repeated the r< holy man. "Why then I shall doubt- n less be promoted to some high office si in the State." "And then?" "And E then," pursued the young lawyer, I shall live in wealth and honor and look forward to a happy old age." "And then?" "And then," said the w youth, and then?and then?I shall d die." Here the venerable listener g I v.;r, vninfl qnd ap-nin asked 11 ill ICU up 11 JO IUIW uuu ?o ? with solemnity and emphasis, "And tl then?"
