Tbe Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, May 7,1902. The Clemson Matter. Said to Be More Back of It Than Has Come Out. Columbia Evening Record, May 1. It was rumored around tbe city this morning that there was considerably more back of the expulsion of # E. E. Thorn well from Clemson college than had been brought cut. TfcornweU was cnargea wun isking seme test tubes from tbe class room against an order that had just been issfied, and he was expelled. The whole sophomore class, of which he was a member, left in sympathy. One of the Clemson boys stated this morning that the faculty had had it in for the whole class for some time. About a month ago some one broke into the commissary supply house, and, in a spirit of mischief, took several pounds of supplies. The facnltv. for some reason, suspected ^ , - some member of the sophomore class and came down on the whole crowd with enforcement of a set of rules that had never been heard of befoie. When the test tnbe affair came up, Thornwell was sent home, and the boys, thinking it strange that such drastic punishment should be resorted to, commenced to investigate the matter at once. They claim to have received information from an authoritative source that the faculty was playing even for the commissionary episode, and accordingly the class left in a body. They say that Thornwell was not connected with the commissary busi^ ness and that there will be some hot statements issued in a few days from members of the clas9. One of them received a telegram ' Am a mfimKav r\f tVa 1 nriinr place XXUUU a UJVUiVVi Ul juuivt V*w?vw this morning stating that the entire body of college students were standing by them, and unless Colonel Simpson would reinstate Thonwell and the other boys the rest would leave the college. He will be given a few days to render his decision. The boys say that if a committee, made up of legislators, lawyers or any other body of men, was appointto look into the matter, they are satisfied that a decieion would be rendered in their favor. The whole affair is very much regretted here and sympathy seems to be evenly divided between the students and the faculty. It has been learned that President Hartzog wrote a very*insulting letter to Dr. Thornwell in regard to his son's conduct, and he intends to make President nartzog apoiog ze for the same. .This is another chspter in the sffair aEd wilt no doubt prove an important one, as Dr. Thornwell is one of the most popular ' Presbyterian ministers in the Sta^e and has numerous friends who will stand by him to the bitter end. Since the sophomore class left the college in a body the junior and freshman class made arrangements to do likewise. Col. Simpsou, the chairman of the Board of Trustees, learning of this appeared before the stu dents the evening before their contemplated leaving and persuaded them to remain and await the action of the Trustees at their meeting in ' June. i Won't Follow Advice After Paying for It. In a recent article a prominent physician says, "It is next to impossible for the physician to get his patients to carry out any prescribed course of hygiene or diet to the smallest extent; he has but one re^ sort left, namely, the drug treatment" When medicines are used for chrcnic constipation, the most mild and gentle obtainable, such as Chamber Iain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, should be employed. Their uee is not followed by constipation as they leave the bowels in a natural and healthy condition. For sale by J. E. Kaufmann.

There is only one just way to work the roads, and that is by taxation. The cities c do Dot mak9 the poor man work the streets, they are worked by taxation. Yes, they do more than that by the same system; they build good school houses and ruu them nine months out of the twelve. Who blames the poor man from quitting the country when he ha9 to work the roads and net a dollar annrrmriated hv the _rl r . ~J State to keep up the school houses and ooly a supplementary sum sufficiefc to run the pchools three months? An old schorls house is enough to give the children pneumonia or some other fetal disease. If it is right to sppropriate large sums of money for maintenance of colleges for the rich, then both justice and equity demand that an appropriation be made for the maintenance of the common schools in the country for the education of the children of the poor, and thus educate the masses, for ycu know poor men cannot send their children to college.

One of the most useful success habits one can form is that of learning something from everybody with whom he <? V/-> infnrninfinil whif'll CUUJCS 111 I.U1IU1V.U i^U IIILUI 1U<1V<V>. ...... can be acquired is too trivial to be ignored. Constantly measure yourself with the men you meet. You will find that every one can teach you something which you did net know before and which, perhaps. you would never have a chance to learn again if you did not acquire it from him. Daniel Webster once made a great hit in arguing a case before a jury by repeating a story which he afterward said he had not thought of since he heard it fourteen years before. But "Webster was always picking up something for future use. His famous reply to Hayne, the greatest speech ever delivered on the American continent, was largely made up of little reserves which he had picked up here and there in his reading, from studying men and from observation. Many a prominent novelist has collected materia! for his stories by making notes of his conversations with those he has met and by observation. Charles Dickens got a great deal of the matter for some of his novels in this way. One young man will go to a lecture ? 3 - ? - ? Kofnninor ana aner speuuiux uu uum iisnuiuft ..v the helpful, inspiring words of some prominent man will leave the hall or lecture room without having derived any benefit from the address. Another young man will attend the same lecture with an ambition to learn something. He will drink in the speaker's sentences as if he were never to hear such words of encouragement and inspiration again. At the conclusion of the address he will determine that he will make more of his opportunities in the future; that he will read more, think more, study more, he more than he ever was before. Such a young man has a purpose and is determined to learn something from everything he comes in contact with and from everybody he talks to. The other has no ambition. does not throw himself into what he does, lets his mind wander hither and thither, so that he never wholly understands what people are saying and therefore never derives any benefit or information from tbnse with wbom he converses.?Orison Swett Mar den in Success. ??
