Hollow Greek Items. < Received too'late for la9t week.) On account of bad weather the Rev. J. D. Shealy was unable to fill his appointment at Mt. Pleasant iast Sunday, but will fill his place at the usual hour next Sundr.y. Misses Ruth and Anna Belle Long, pf Summerland College, spent the week-end at home, Miss Rath has t>een -suffering from a severe attack of the grippe, but we are giad to say mat . ehe is very much improved. Miss Eula Price, also of Summerland College, spent Saturday and Sunday -at home. She was accompanied by her two college-mates, Miss McGee, of Saluda, and Miss Sanders, of Aiken oonnty, and all attended Sunday school at Mt. Pleasant. Mr. Adam R. Hendrix has taken work with his uncle, Prof. S. S. Xjindler, for the year. Adam is a jolly fellow and makes the Piney Woods ring. Mr. Harry O. Lindler is visiting the fcomefolks for a few days. He is the popalar and efficient book-keeper at the Seaboard's round-house at Cayce, and Is held in the highest esteem by -aU who know him. S. News from Peak. We were saddened by the news of the death of John H. Bushardt, who >died Saturday morning about nine -o'clock at Columbia hospital where he had gone to have an operation per* formed. He was paralyzed about 8 years ago from which he never recovered. The funeral was preached by Rev. Fnlmer. He was buried by the Masons of Pomaria Lodge A. F. M., of which he was a member and filled several important offices. He was a member of Mt. Hermon CJharch, 'a deacon, secretary 4uid treasurer for many years. He -served as postmaster at Peak a long time. The "good roads'' spirit is prevailing and the overseers are putting their -Toads in good condition. Great improvements have been made -dn the schools, and the Peak school stands second to none and extra good service is being done by Prof. Fnlmer *nd his efficient assistant. The big dam at Parrs will soon be completed and we hope that our residences, churches, lodges, store houses -and railroad station will soon have -electric lights. . ? .

Raising The Titanic The scheme for attaching lifting electro-magnets to the Titanic's side is feasible as far as their attractive power is concerned, for such magnets are now used in steel mills- for lifting masses of steel and iron weighing upward of 150 tons, says Leslie's Weekly, bat to place them in position on the surface of the steel hull is not so easy. < For this latter purpose it is proposed to use a submarine boat specially con- j sfcructed for withstanding the extreme water pressure to which it will be sub- < jected. This boat will be likewise op- ( crated by electric current, through { cables secured to boats on the surface, i but it will be controlled by a crew in j rthe submarine. It will be the work of -these men to adjust the lifting mag- 1 nets in their proper positions around the hull. If the scheme should prove successful in raising the Titanic, other) ships having iron or steel hulls which have sunk and whose positions are known will be raised for the salvage of treas- ' .are they carry. Precious yellow metal and wondrous <^ems to the untold value of billions of - dollars lie scattered about in concentrated heaps on the bottom of the old ocean. Yet man has not, to the pres a 12 J 3 .1 _ ?B5 ume, suuueaea o er wen in con' sjaering the elemental deep and making these treasures again his own. From time immemorial he has dreamed dreams by which to possess him self of the salvage of gold and of jewelfr which once formed so valuable a part of the cargo of ships that sail ed from the port of living men and vnade their final anchorage in the lockof Davy Jones.
