Ends Season 'Tis a long lane that has no, turning but still we wish things. had kept on as they started ir the Carolina-Carolina game Sat urday. All went well until the second frame which proved to be a slugfest in both halves. Bill Folger opened the inning with a long one which R. Waring han died neatly. An error, hit, and another miscue filled the bases. Coleman came to the bat and in answer to his team mate's cry, "Win your own game." pasted out one of Capt. Horton's offer ings for a circuit. The Game cocks came back strong with four runs, but the beans had been spilled and the inning ended with the score 9 to 4 in the Tar Heels' favor. Foster's men scored again in the seventh and eighth while the visitors piled up three in the fourth, two in the sixth, and two more in the eighth--grand total 6 to 16. At the head of the North Car olina attack was Big Bill Folger, former Gamecock football star. Sims was the individual star for Carolina with three hits, one a three bagger, and several neat pickups to his credit. FRENCH EDUCATOR LECTURES ETC. suitors for Ienriette's hand, were played by L. M.

Buisson, have so many fathers been call ed on to fight for their country. Hence there has come about a (luest ion of war orphans such as has never arisen before. In the present French code there is no lawv to remedy this evil. But if a complete code is yet to be com.. piled, France has the cause of her' suffering youth at heart. "Franee," continued the speak 'er, "feels that the debt of a country towards its soldiers'' or phans constitutes the first lien on its reour-es."
