An aggregation of bicycles in motion is a beautiful tight in itself, but when they are beautifully and e!aboiafely decorated, with banting, ribbons and fiower.--, and mounted by graceful riders, and moving with military precision arid exactness, it then makes a striking panorama if beauiy. The wheels were decorated in all shades of color, and much artistic taste was dis played in the decorations. The manoeuvers were executed uDder the command of Capf. Jordan, and were executed remarkably well, especially consideriig that there have been only one or two preliminary drills. The grounds were encircled with ropes and within the enclosed space was a lar re audience, and every one enjoyed the evening. Ice cream and shtrbert were served and a good sum was realized. At the close of the drill a ! vote was taken by the audience for the most graceful gentleman rider, hdy rider and the be;>t decorated wheel. The voting was spirited and exciting and each rider had bis or her friends actively campaigning. It was a hard matter to decide. | A, JUVSO^ nuv iiauv/?oi.u wuv v<v; v>v carnivals in Charleston, Orangeburg ; and Columbia say that the carnival on Friday was decidedly more beautiful than any. The wheels were all deco| rated with exquisite taste, and the j parade was lovely. Mr. J. L. Beaty'a wheel was one of the very prettiest, | and those who decorated it displayed [great ingenuity. Miss Ella Dofy and [Miss Jessie Jennings rode wheels which were beautifully decoralcd, and Mr. Cbas. Stevenson's and Miss Mamie Jordau's were masses of lovely pink roses. Among txthers deserving spccial mention were Misses Allston and MaryStevenson. A nice sum was realized from the carnival, and ili3 young ladies who had the affair in charge are to be congratulated upon the antire success of the eatertainment. We cannot de?

The strength which comes to us from eating nourishing food is better than stimulation, because it is new strength. The health which belongs to a strong body, well nourished by proper food (properly digested), is the ouly health that is lasting. The difference between Shaker Digestive Cordial and other medicines i9 simply that it helps nature to make strength. It does not proless to cure sicknes*, except as that sickness is a result of weakness caused by food not properly digested. Shaker Digestive Cordial will relieve the pangs of indigestion, and make thin, sick, weak people as well as if their stomach3 had never been out of order.

As has been strted the Farmers Tnsfilntft would convene on Saturday, Jane 19. The meeting was called to order at eleven o'clock. On motion of Mr. Bulow Maj. Woodward was chosen chairman of the institute, and W. R. Elliott secretary. Mr. W. JE. A. Wyman, Professor cf Yelenary Science at Clemson College, was then introduced as the first speaker. Handling his subject ably? he sp .-kc interestirgly on the proper and improper mcll.ol of shoeing the horse, and the diseases originating from improper shoeing. Dr. Wyman exhibited two shoes suitable lor use in this country and explained to the audience the benciit of each. Stating that the trog of the foot does not need acy shoeing, nor the heelJ? and not to allow the smith to rasp the hoof; for in so doing an injury is done by the covering of the foot being removed, causing a contrac'el foot. In paring, (he foot shonl i always be trimmed to the white line, between the barf, or outer surface, but never be J low the line. Feet being parea Delow this line causes thrash, rag-frog:, or contraction. Ia shoeing, the nam ber of nails should -'.e three on the outside and four 011 the inside; the inside of the hoof being weaker. Faulty gaits can be cured by proper shoeing? the bitting of the fet locks, clicking or hitting of the shoes. To prevent hitting of tho fct locks pare the loot on outside lower than on outside, and put a shoe two ounces heavier iUn m TvrpwMif r.lifik 1U liUUl IUUU U^Uiiiu IV |/4 X. . v... wo ing, thus causing the horse to throw the front feet farther out of reach. Colts should never be sboi before they are two years of age. Horses with soft brittle feet should be dressed with the following mixture; 3 parts tallow, 1 of tar, and 1 of resin. Omit the resin if hard and brittle. The doctor then spoke oi the two diseases in cattb that, we hive to contend with more frequently than others, Red water and Texas fever. Seating that Texas fever can be noticed by a droopy appearance of the cow, a pale look, high temperature and a tendency to stay away from the herd. This disease is incurable except in very slight attacks. The disease is caused by a small tick that can be distinguished by three small stripes across the back. They should be picked and killed, and the I cattle should be changed from one I pasture to another. He advises all farmers to watch closely and destroy " - * - - r these pests so tnat me caiuc ui iuc South will not have to be quarantined. Speaking of dehorning cattle Prof. Wyman says: "It is very brutal and can be avoiaed by raising cattle without horns." A batter method is to take the calf when young, cut the hair closely over the tip of horn, when just beginniDg to pasn tnrongn iue skin warm a stick of costic potash and apply until a little blood can be seen. Usually one application i? succeesful. After speaking on several othsr treatments of diseased cattle Mr. Cohen moved that the audience express their thanks for his instructive end iuteresting discourse. After a recess of an hour and a half Prof. Hart of the dairyiug department was introduced by the chairman and I spoke interestingly and instructively on the management of the dairy, the feeding and care of cattle and selection of the best, cows for dairying purposes. Fie advocates the building of silo?, for ensilage, stating that ODe hundred tons or ensilage should not cost more tbau one hundred dollars. Silos may be built either above or below grouad and furnished with srrcen corn, eor gum, or pea vine?. The State of Ohio Las SOO cheese makiag factories and creameriee, the produce amountio? to ($13,000,000) thirteen millions of dollars. The Slate of New York, though most of the milk is sold, has in operation 1,021 factories and creameries. The South being far behind iu this business, he advocates the build " ? ? J iug ot more creameries, auu uucec*= making factories. Tests, at Clemson, are made of all cows, and a standard of 300 pounds of butter to the cow a year i3 maintained. After Prof. Hart had concluded Prof. Morrison, whom we all know and win needed no introduction, interested us on the subjec of Industrial education. He spoke of tt!6 1ECK 01 CQUCUU^U lu luc cuuiutui states, and explaining the difference in manual labor and manual traiuing. Manual labor is given for profit while manual training teaches one bow to think, to hear and to act; and that any man who woold fight against any institution of learning Irom a pine pole cabin to a state university i3 no better than a man who would slick a torch to acorn .;uring a time of famine. P.-ul\ Morrison spoke very highly of Washington school in Ala bama where boys arc iniued to make buggies, harness, furniture, shoes, aud many other articles too numerous to mention. lie also spoke of Sheffield in Alabama having to send to Scotland for laborers. "Where are the boys of the South?'' These words he said often came to his mind. He then stated the good work that Clemson is doing and spoke very highly of that institution. Inviting all to visit it and to send anything we want analyzed to the chemical department at no cost to the sender. Prof. Morrison's address was very instructive ami intellectual. We are sorry we cannot do justice to him and the other professors, but not being a stenographer the reporter failed to c itch, by ear, anything like a synopsis of the highly enjiyed speech. - J CA2TD ITS ^USB To the Editor:?I have an absolute remedy for Consumption.

Mr. Editor: In last week's issue of The News and IIekald there is a somewhat remarkable document from ihs learned County Superintendent of Education to the patrons and trustees of the public schools. To the - t A ,C moni-pfltfn casual rcautri Ul UU3 uui^ug mnu 11WI.V) "to which he has given much thought j and labor," there would seem to be nothing objectionable; but if you read it between the lines, so to speak, it will be readily seen that soaie of the i principles there enunciated are contrary to the genius of our form of government, and "cannot be accepted or endorsed by any who have imbibed the principles of Jef&rsonian Democracy, and especially not. by those who advocate the doctrines of the Reform pan v, of which I su-jpcse he is consideieJ a leading exponent in this county. The first point in his mani:e.?to that we no.ice is his ordering an election of trustees on a certain day, which is contrary to the law; and as he truly says without precedent. That power Caopointment of trustees) is conferred by the law on the county board of examiners, and as he is only one of tbe three members of tlw board, he h 19 just ODe vote in the matter. Then if he had the authority to order such an election lie stulti^es bimseif by ordering the election and in the next breach saying]that those el-cted will not be commi-^ioned unless possessing certai i qualifications or submitting to certain restrictions laid down by him, without law or prece dent. Wbo, of the patrons and trustees, would care to take iheir chances in an election, hedged about in such a manner? One of these restrictions is that must be a married man; when it is a well known fact that unmarried me often make the best irnstees, for the simple reason, that ha/ins: no children of their own they are unbiased and are free to act in such a manner as Will proiLl'JlC ujc u?h iiuurcets wi an concerned. They are not likely to put 'he school ?- J* l"_* 1 - ? T M nouse m meir iruut yaru, or ju waning distance of their homes, nor to pay two pr'ces for the building of school houses. A great deal of stress is laid on ] harmony, and it is usually a good thing, but when it is carried to such a n extent that there is only one sound, and that coarse, and without melody, it becomes monotonous and tiresome. However, I wonld comfort the TTTAAI- nnfftWKfnl Kt? eldfin/y ? CC JV~ rv 11 tu auu uiuaituiui kj j that Ibis mighty sound that doubtless has often struck terror to their hearts is only the rushing of wind after all. A man with very weak eyes can see the kind of harmony that is wanted in this instance. Do you sae the point? In conclusion, would state that under the law the trustees have almost absolute authority in locating and building school h >U53S. choosing, paying teachers, &c., and that the [ supervision giv*.n the county board of I examiners?not the county suptrin; tendent of education?is very indefinite.
