Wedaesddy. June 1 - - 1902
Pistolless people will be the
order in South Carolina after
July 1 provided none other than
the regulation size are used.
The raising of $100,553 for the
endowment ef a chair of eco
nomics in Washington and Lee
University is the way in which
the friends of that institution
have-shown their appreciation of
the services of the late President
WilliarQ L. Wilson.
Senator Henderson, of Aiken,
has resigned his position in the
State senate in order to enter the
race for the United States senate.
While this may be very good poli
ties, we can not see any impro
priety in the holder of one office
while running for another.
An interesting case has been
decided in Greenville as the re
sult of which a keeper of a res
taurant has been made to pay a
heavy fine for .the sale of game
in violation of the game law. The
suit was brougl.it at the instance
of a game association. There is
need of more such associations.
The South Carolina buildng
at the Charleston Exposition has
been offered to the city of Charles
ton for $250, provided it be util
ized for a permanent exposition.
The exposition grounds have
already been l)ought for the pur
pose of a park and many valua
ble exhibits have been secured
for a permanent exposition.
It is not, an uncommon thing
in going through a rural cou.
community to pass a school build
ing the doors of which are open
and the windows up. Trustees
should take better care of the
property entrusted to them. We
trust that the trustees of Fair
field county will see to it that
their school buildings are well
cared for during the holidays.
The practice of paying the ex
penses of teachers attending sum
mer schook is properly becoming
more general. It is a form of
increasing the teachor's salary,
and a good one it is too. When
- a teacher is willing to do addi
tional study for better prepara
tion for the next year, then there
should lie an additional compen
sation. The assurance that the
expenses of attendance upon the
summer school will be paid will
insure a .teacher's attendlance in
many instances where it would
otherwise be impossible.
After repeated requests on his
part the board of trustees of
Wofford College has accepted the
resignation of Dr. Carlisle as its
president. The very reluctance
with which the resignation was
accepted is but a slight expres
sion of the appreciation the board
has had for the work Dr. Carlisle
has done for this institution,
with which he has been so closely
connected from its very organiza
tion. Words are inadequate to
measure the greatt work Dr.-Car
lisle has done for Wofford. He
retires from the presidency of
that institution with the admira
tion of the Sttt that gave him
birth, and with the est-:em of th~e
citizens of the city in which lie
cast his lot and love of the.
thousands of old stud -nts whose
good fortune ha- been to sit at
his feet. May many years mo:e
be spared him.
The que.stion of determi ,i
whether Ninnsboro is to hi m
electric lights, is niow squi o I
before the voters. A mnajo;irv
the freeholders have f Lvo red th<~
ordering of an eleetiom, whi 1
will be held July 8. Tue bok
of registration will be open lili
June 28. The proposition is to
n issue $10,000 in bonds for in
stalling an electric light plant,
provided so much bie necess.niy.
In order that this proposition
mity be voted on intelligently, the
voters will want light on electric
lights, (specially as to their
cost as compared with - the
present system.~ The acting in
tendant has-be< n asked to give
information on this point, and wer
hope to be able to furnish our
raaders with the same in the next~
issue. Oun general principles we
mr nosi1.artilv in favor of such
an improvement, provided it' is
wcithin our rmch-a fact we ope 1
will be proven by the experience E
of'otier towns. Our columns are t
open for a full and open discus
sion of the pros and cons of elec- r
trie lights for Winnsboro. 1

Last week Misses Bessie Mc
Master and Mamie Ellison and
Gregg McMaster paid Miss Jen
nie Thomas a flying visit. In s
their honor she gave a most do
lightful "trolley ride." the car
stopping at the stations of Cro
conoleville, Checkersville, Jack
Straw Station and Pingpongville,
wheie the passengers alighted,
trying their skill at different
games, the charming conductress I
scoring for eech. At the close of
the evening the "excursionists"
Iere landed in a parlor, where
that delightful "poetry of food
that appeals to all with a melting
austerity and soft hardness" was
served by dainty maidens in
white.
It was fou' upon comparing c
score cards that Mrs. James W.
Team and Mr. W. Herbert Ruff,
Jr., had tied for the prize. They
were hurried back to Pingpong
ville, and after an exciting game
Mr. Ruff was declared to be suc
cessful and was awarded a lovely
ash-tray.
A number of the ladies met at
Mrs. W. Herbert Ruff's on Tues
day afternoon and organized a
social club to meet every two
weeks. Mrs. Charles P. Wray
was elected president, Miss Jen
nie Thomas vice-president, and
Mrs. James W. Team secretary.
We are glad to see Rev. Hil

I ever saw, just enough people to
be pleasant and the dinner-you
