Dr. George Armstrong Wau chope has placed in the hands of ( the University printers copy for I a monograph of the life and I works of Timrod. Thb booklet I will be issued within the next few t weeks. Dr. Wauchope gave an' ad- 9 dress on Timrod at Columbia Y College in 1893. The entire lec- li ture was printed in the North f Carolina Review, May 1912. u The monograph is an outgrowth I of this address. C The author had made a study a of the South Carolina poet's d work before he came to this State, and after he came to Co- t lumbia, original material was t found. He spent a week in 'l Charleston in the search for first t hand unpublished facts. A- r mong other interesting facts, 1 Dr. Wauchope found in literary c clubs in Charleston a number of r letters from girl pupils of Tim- 8 rod while he was tutor at South 8 Carolina plantations. These let- I ters give a very clear and simple a picture of Timrod as he was I thought of by his pupils. Tim- '1 rod was editing a paper in Col- r umbia at the close of the war, e and because of his bitter editor- it ials he had to be concealed from s Sherman's army. The monograph is :illustrated 9 by three pictures. One is a pic- I ture of the poet, another is a I picture of a .shaft erected in I his honor at Charleston, .and the e third is a picture of his home in Columbia. The house is now standing on . Henderson Street. T The numler is 1104. a Dr. Wauchope was ably as- d sisted in gathering information I by Dr. Snowden, which fact he c acknowledges in the preface.

Sullivan of,the olumbia Weather Bureau , de ivered a lecture in LeConte Col ege Tuesday night on "The 'our Types of Storms Common D the United States." In be inning his talk he spoke of the eneral circulation of the atmos here and of the scientific nowledge necessary in .making orecasts. He pointed out the sual paths of storms over the Jnited States, showing by way f illustration, charts of a torm's progress for successive ays. The four types explained were he cyclone, the hurricane, the ornado, and the thunder storm. 'he cyclones usually develop in he equatorial belt and move orthward up the east coast nf forth America, but always de reasing in violence. They arely enter land areas, but do reat damage when they do trike the coast. "The hurricane, " e said, "is a child of the tornado nd travels practically the same aths." They are less violent. 'he tornado is very frequent in ountainous districts and where ver there are great differences ri air pressure. This type of torm is commonly known as a 'cloudburst." The thunder torm is almoat .aiways due to cal causes and is the hardest henomenon to forecast. Mr. Sul ivan concluded his lecture by howing other charts. Dr. C. H. Andrews, a retired ainister, has given to the library bottle containing layers of the ifferent soils of Columbia. It resents an attractive variegated olor. Each kind of soil is com actly placed so that the differ nt layers show a broad variance. Going Home. Let Harrison and Porter trans er your trunk to the station. rompt service. S. B.
