CO L7RERS OF Blind, Interior press and Oak oarding, Mouldin g Door w Frames SOUTH CAROLINA Southern Railway Offers Scholarships. President Fiuley, of the Southern Railway Company, has announced that all arrangements have been completed for the award of Southern Railway scholarships in agriculture in the State Agricultural College of each State traversed by the lines of the Southern Railway uompany and the companies associated with it in farm improvement work, so that the scholarships may be awarded prior to the beginning of the school year this fall. The purpose of the management of the Company to award these scholarships as a means of supplementing the extensive work which the Company is doing for the improyement of agriculture in the territory traversed by its lines South of the Potoxac and Ohio rivers and Easts of the Mississippi was announced last February. The selection of the yoang men who will receive the scholarships has been placed entirely in the hands of the President of the State Agricultural College in each State and all correspondence relative to the matter should be addressed to him. The general plan in accordance with which the scholarships will be awarded is as follows: First. The scholarship shall be awarded to a boy, preferably from the farm, liying in a county, within the State, traversed by a line of one of the railway companies participating in the 1 award. Second. The boy must meet the entrance requirements of the college. Third. The boy mu9t be financially unable to ayah himself of an agricultural college education without assist- ( ance. Provided, that the President of a college, if he deems it advisable, may divide the total rmount awarded to such college'among two or more boys who may be able to defray part of their expenses fro n other sources. Fourth. Subject.to the above conditions, the president of each college for which scholarships are to be award- 1 ed may determine for himself the method of selecting the boys to whom they shall be awarded. The management of the Railway_Companies, believing that tbe best results will be obtained if the selection of the boys shall be left entirely to the college authorities, will not participate in such selection in any way or recommend the award of a scholarship to any particular boy. Fifth. Each*boy to* whom a schol- , arship may be awarded most maintain a good standing in his classes throughout his entire college course and must conform ?to [the rules and regulations of the college. The authorities of the college.shall have full and final authority to determine the degree of delinquency or of insubordi nation that shall ^constitute grounds for the wlthdrawaljof the benefits of a scholarship frorn^any student. In no case shall a beneficiary of a scholarship be permitted to'appeal from any act or decision^of the college authorities to the railway companies. Sixth. In colleges in which it is customary to send to the parents or guardians of students periodical reports as to their .standing and condact, such reports as to the beneficiaries of railway scholarships shall be forwarded to the President of the Southern Railway Company, as well as to the patent or guardian. Seventh. Each beneficiary of a scholarship shall be required to subscribe to an agreement that he will, for at least three years after the ter mmation of his course in college, devote himself to practical farming in territory contiguous to a line cf one of the railway companies participating in the award or to teaching agriculture, or working on an experimental farm, in some state traversed by the lines of one of the railway companies participating in the award.

Charlotte, July 26.?Goaded into fury by the continued illegal relations between her husband and her daughter by a former marriage, Mrs. V. J. Hartsell of Mecklenburg county, this morning killed the man who had been her husband for 25 years. Hartsell, a man of 60 years of age, had been working in his melon patch and returned to his house at 8:30 o'clock. His wife met him at the door and fired at him with a shotgun when he was 15 feet away. When he attempted to rise after the first shot, she fired again and that failed to kill instantly, the infuriated woman seized an axe ana mutuaiea. the body. The daughter,, who is the woman in the case, is 30 years old, having been five years old at the time of her mother's marriage to Hartsell. She has two children by her step-father and the family has lived together in the same house until the misdoings of her husband so infuriated the wife uhat the tragedy resulted. Dysentery is always serious and often a dangerous disease, but it can be cured. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has cured it even when malignant and epidemic.
