Many schools in South Carolina

The suicide of Counti, thp hero of

Now that politics are absorbing
less of the people's time, there are
many subjects of discussion fruitful
for good to the community. Among
these the building or a hospital in
Abbeville stands close to the head of
the list. ;
While prospects are bright for
Democratic success this year over
confidence is dangerous. Money will
be needed from this time on to push
the campaign to a successful conclu
sion. See that your name is on the
list of contributors. "
PUBLISHING THE BOLLS.
/ _ .
So far as we have seen,.not a single
newspaper has complied with the re
quest of Hon. W. F. Stevenson to
publish the poll lists in their respec
tive counties. Mr. Stevenson's idea
was good, especially when applied to
counties in which charges of fraud
had been made, but he was hardly
aware, at the time the request was
made, of the great amount Gf labor
involved in reproducing these lists.
Very few weekly newspapers are
equipped for doing this work. In
addition to thi?, it seems that in
some counties tjie task, of securing
these rolls involves as much labor as
their printing. <
So far as The Press and Banner of
fice is concerned, it could, by incurr
ing considerable expense, reproduce
the rolls, but inasmuch as there have
been no charges of fraud in this
county, and as there is apparent no
great demand from our readers for
this information we hardly feel jus
tified in incurring the necessary ex
pense.
CONGRATULATIONS.
The Press and Banner wishes to
extend to the successful candidates
for connty offices its best wishes and
to hope their administrations may be
as successful as they could wish. In
the words, but without the irony, of
the distinguished Roman, "they are
all honorable gentlemen." Our sin
cere wish and our candid belief is
that they will be actuated only by a
desire to serve the best interests of
Abbeville county. Success attend?
their efforts. ^ I
fi -V - ,
THEN AND NOW.
All over the county the schools are
beginning to open their doors to the
boys and girls who are soon to he the
men and women of another genera
tion.
One does not have to he a very old
man to be able to remark great strides
in South Carolina in matters educa
tional. at least in hti far as the num
her of schools and the length of terms
are c-oncerned.
Whether the system of teaching
has advanced in proportion is a mat
ter over which there may l>e room
for legitimate discussion by those
qualified to speak. That there is a
wide difference in methods of teach
ing is, however, too well settled to
admit of doubt.
It does not require a great stretch
of the imagination to recall the old
fashioned school teacher who com
pelled the singing of the multiplica
tion table and some, doubtless of de
cided musical talent, carried the
practice so far as to have lessons in
geography recited to the tune of mu
sic. There is at least one citizen of
Abbeville?and the frosts of winter
have not yet turned his locks to gray
?who can recite to you the bound
aries and the products of nearly ev
ery country on the globe to the ac
companiment of an air doleful enough
to bring tears to the eyes of a horse
apple.
The private academy, a relic of the
aute-bellum days, which lingered far
into our later times, has been entirely
eliminated from our educational sys
tem?and, according to the belief of
some, not without a loss to the cause
of education. t
As these academses were prepara
tory .schools and were a relic of an
age in which industrialism played
scarcely no part, great attention was
paid to classical side of education
with a view to preparing men for the
learned professions. To the youth ol
15 or ltf who developed a spark of
talent the campaigns of Caesar, the
story of Aeneas, the wanderings ol
Ulysses, and the doings of all the
ancients handed down to us in classic
lore, were as laminar as the exploits
of Nick Cirter are to many of our
boys of today.
That this system of education, in
which all the finer traits of human
character were stressed, should have
left an impress upon the South is lit
tle wonder. Idealism rather than
utilitarianism was the natural result
of such a system, and its necessary
abandonment lor the adoption of u
system tendimr more towards the
practical, while it may gam for ut>
commercially, will and must lose to
us much of the tine spirit of the old
South that will, in time to coijie, if it
would not now, stand us in good
stead.
A reversion to the old academy is
of course impossible. Multiplicity ol
pupils prevents the careful attention
to the needs of the individual pupil
which the teachers of these old-time
schools bestowed, while the interests
which engage the attention of the
South at this time are so different in
their nature from those oj^former
time* that other systems must be de
vised to meet the changed oKler.
But many who attended t^iese old
fashioned school# have a feeling at
each recurring opening of the school
year that something of the better
thing* of the old times is Iqet in the
hurly-burly of present-day schooling.
To be sure there is, or should be,
an all-pervading spirit of democracy
in the public school of today which
was lacking, to some extent, in the
old-time academy, and it may be
that since we must grow and develop
that the children can better be taught
self-reliance by commingling with
hundreds of their fellowi where in
olden times they mixed'with tens,
and that, too, with little time for
pfcy- .j
To the teachers of the1 county we
wish the most successful year in their
experience, while for the pupils we
wish that the troubles which beset
them in after life may pot seem half
so hard to bear as those which will
confrout them during this session,
and that the knowledge which they
erain this vear will aid them mate
rially in meeting all these problems;
which, after all, is the true aim of all
education.
May this year be the best.
AN INVITATION.
^ ?
The good people of Greenwood
have been forced to abandon their
county fair this year for lack of ad
equate grounds. In view of this fact
we extend to them, on bqhalf of the
citizen* of Abbeville, an invitation
to come to Abbeville Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, October 23,
24 and 25, when the Abbeville county
fair will be held. We assure them a
hearty welcome and will undertake
to guarantee that they will be well
repaid for the time and effort ex
pended. Every preparation is being
made to make a fair that will afford
every opportunity for edification and
enjoyment. *
Come, neighbors, and enjoy your
selves.

JACK JOHNSON'S
WIFE SUICIDES.
Sbuuued aud Uuhappy Because
She was Wife of a Negro.
Chicago, Sept. 12.?Being shunned and 1
unhappy because she had married a negro, i
the wife of Jack Johnson, the heavyweight i
champion pugilist, shot herself last night <
and died this morning She was SI years i
of a^e and the daughter of Mr*. David i
Terry of Bn^klyn. When she married i
Johnson she was the divorced wife of i
Clarence Duryea, well known New York i
turfman. , > 1
< During the trip to Las Vegas, N. M., 1
where Johnson fought Jim Flynn, the i
black's wife told friends 6he was very uu
.happy as her former friends avoided her 1
because she wap wedded to a negro.
Soon after Johnson left his home last
night she called her two maids and placing
an arm around each, asked that they
kneel Ln prayei;. After she had prayed for
some time she sent the maids into differ
ent rooms. Hardly had they closed the
doors behind them when they heard a shot
and rushing in found the woman on the
floor.
The woman's'act was attributed by her
huaVianri tn a narvmtQ mifc ftf ft H6
rieg from which she had suffered for two
years. She Is also said to have shown
symptoms of tuberculosis. She was to
have left for Las Vegas last nlf ht but de
cided to abandon the trip.

Tuesday, the day of tho second primary
election, was';qulet; comparatively small
vote was polled, there being nothing of
special import to bring out either a full
vote or more* If a few of our citizens had
been taking tho 3-days liquor cure for a
short time before each of the primaries,
and it had had its promised effect, the or- 1
der at each would have been less objec- I
tionable, and all would have gone along
swimmingly. 4 i
Mrs. J. M. Huckabee, Master J. M. Huck- J
abee and Miss Mozelle Huckabee went to 1
Latimer Wednesday and spent the day at I
the old homestead of the first, intending <

The Close ot the Campaign.
For over a year the Presbyterians of the
Synod of South Carolina have been en
gaged in a campaign to raise a fund of
$200,000 to better equip and more largely
endow its three educational institutions.
Some time was spent in necessary prelim
inary work.
The first canvass was conducted in Pee
Dee Presbytery last October. Since then
the campaign has continued, though it was
retarded by the cold, rough winter, and
canvasses have been conducted by Pied
mont, Enoree, Bethel and South Carolina
Presbyteries.
The JointCommittee on Endowment has
been anxious to complete tho campaign by
the time of the meeting of Synod in Col
umbia, October 22. Therefore it has been
decided to have a joint canvass in the two
remaining Presbyteries, -tiarmo*y aua
Charleston. October 13th has been select
ed as Field Sunday. The canvass will fol
low Immediately 4nd there will be just
time enoogh to complete it before the
meeting of Synod. The week before Field
Sunday it is proposed to have three ban
quets. One in Sumter, for Harmony Pres
bytery; one in Charleston and one in Col
umbia, for Charleston Presbytery.?From

dowment.
