WHY IS THIS SO?
Mr. Editor: In looking over the
''Students' Hand-Book" of tha South
Carolina College I am surprised to see
that Mt. 2ioh College is not in the list
of "accredited sehoois," that Is to say
the graduates of Mt. Zion are not ad
mited to the State College on their
record, but are required te ptand an
enteriBg examination. Can this be
so? Thera was a time when a note of
recommendation from the principal of
1ft Zion was a passport to the State
College. W by is this not so now ?
There are thirty-nine "accedited
schools" in the State, and some of
them are from "small bat ambitious'
places. As a patron and well-wisher
of the sehool I shall be pleased to
know why Mt. Zion is discriminated
against. Certainly the scheol officers
i nave requested the distinction.

Winns'ooro tarned oat en masse to
witness tbe marriage ceremony of
Miss Lylla Ketcbin and the Rev.
McEiweo Ross, wliicb was solemnized
at the A. R. P. Chnrch at half after
five, on the afternoou of Jane 1st.
i Never before in the annals of the old
town has been recorded a function so
charmingly planned and tastefully
executed.
At an early hour the church was
filled to overflowing, and expectant
crowds stood without, anxious to
catch a glimpse of the lovely bride,
who is one of the best known and
most charming of old Winnsboro?8
famously charming girls.
, As became the scene of so important
an event the church had been beautifully
and profusely decorated. The
pulpit, organ and whole front of the
church were so filled with flowers and
foliage plants that it seemed like the
interior of some grand conservatory.
Over the carpet bad been spread a
white cloth and a large roll of white
far rags served as a 4,prie-dieu" for
the bridal couple. Daylight bad been
excluded and wax taper6 in tall
branching candelalva shed a soft and
becoming light over the whole.
At half after five strains of Mendelsohn's
wedding march echoed through
the church. The Rev. C. E. McDonald
assisted by the Rev. John T. Chalmers
and the Rev. Mr. Johnson came
forward and stood awaiting the
bridal party who came slowly up the
nVht aisle. Coming first were Mr.
- w
Robt. Ketchin and Mr. James Kennedy,
separating to the right and left, snd
were followed by Miss Tiny Elliott
with Mis3 Itae Unmmings, taking' positions
to tbe right, while MiB3 Nana
Cnmming8 and Miss Susie Ketchin
arranged themselves opposite?all
forming a semi-circle before tha altar.
There was a.hash of expectancy and
the lovely bride leaning on the arm of
her brother, Mr. Thomas II. Ketchin,
came slowly np the aisle followed by
the groom and his best man, Mr.
Warren McGinni9, of. Charlotte.
Taking their places in the* centre
they stood while the Rev. C. E.
McDonald in the beautiful and appropriate
words of tbe Episcopal ceremony
delivered the charge", and in
this lovely bower of choicest flowers
tha hridn.1 nair Dli^hted^- their' troth.
The ring was given ah# received, and
they were pronounced man and wife.
After the benedicSon^ a?.d to fhe
sound ef the same sweet music, the
bridal cortege moved down the left aisle
and was soon in carriages en
route to the station, accompanied by
all their friend?, and amid the blessings
and good wishes, accentuated- byshowers
of rice, they left upon thenorth
bound traiu for Oxford, Penn,
the home of the groom.
The bride wore a walking gown of

reached the height of piquancy?a

of black and white net, curling drooping

SALE3I EXERCISES.
Commencement at Salem Academy
College is always an occasion that
briDgs with it a large company of
visitors from North Carolina and
ether State3. This year ihe occasion
was one of unu9nal interest because
everything passed off in so smooth and
satisfactory a manner, and because
the number of visitors was unusually
large. Then too the number of distinguished
visitors was Iarg?-r than
usual, so taken altogether the commencement
of 1898 may bo justly said
to have been the most successful for
the past ton rears.
The Baccalaureate sermon was de
livered by the Rev. H. A. Brown,
D. D., and the large Moravian Cburch
was filled to ils utmost capacity to
hear his earnest and eloquent effort.
Monday evening- tbe opening concert
took place. The crowd seeking
admission was so great thit it was
impossible to get near the door half
an hour before the opening of the concert.
A terrible thunder storm raged
during a portion of the concert ahd
the , young ladies de-eryed special j
credit for the cool and collected manner
in which thsy performed their
parts notwithstanding the flashing
lightning aud the rolling thunder.
Tuesday was given over to the
Seniors. The> read their essays, had
a considerable amount of harmless
fun in connection with class day, gave
the company good mu3ic, and had a
good time generally.
Wednesday was Alnmnae day and
the exercises were given over to the
former entirely. There were presented
two beautiful memorials, one
a large bust of the famous edacator
John Auios Comenius, the other a fine
iron grill work fence. These memorials
cost between S200 and $300.
Tn o/Mitirm f.-* fhic ilift nlil nnnils nre
sented between $300 and $100 to the
Centennial Memorial Chappel, to be
erected in the year 1902. In the night
(he grand concert was given. It was
a grand effort indeed. The afternoon
banquet was attended by more than
200 guests, and is always one of the
most brilliant affairs of the year in the
city.
Thursday morning closed tie programme
of the week, when thirtyeight
young ladies received their diplomas
in the regular college class and
abont a score more received diplomas
in the special departments. It was a
beautifal 6ight to see the young ladies
gathered on the platform in their
white Oxford caps and gowns, and
with the great bank of water lillies in
their midst. The picture wa& one that
will not soon be forgotten.
The school was particularly fortunate
in the speakers. We have already
alluded to the Rev. Mr. Brown. The
Alumnae had Mrs. Judge Coble as
their speaker and the orator of Thursday
morning was Judg:e Advocate
Geueral Lemly, LL. D., United States
Navv. In addition to this list there
were present Mrs. Gov. Russell, and
we may add a score or more of persons
who hold positions of distinction of
one kind or another
The yearjnst closing has been a
great one for this old college, and the
prospects we are informed are better
than ever for September next.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
pat togeiher, and until the last few
years was supposed to bo incurable.
For a great many ysars doctors pronounced
it a local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly
failing to care with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh fo be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, mamfactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is ike
only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonfal. It acta directly
on the blood and mncous surfaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any cass it fails to cure.
