A West Point Cndcetsilp. 1O The compettive examination recen >r tly hold at Abbeville resulted in the le slection of Mr. F. G. Mauldin, of thil y place, to the cadetship at West Point d This is a well merited recognition o .e Frank's attainments and native abil . ity. He has alwaas been a most dil 1 igent student. He was a pupil in d the Piedmont. Institute for about tw< , years, and during the last schiolastic r year he has been under the tutorshii of the South Carolina College at Co . lumbia. Mr. T. P. Harrison, of Ab . beville County, who is alternate, came within four points of scoring as many g as Mr.Mauldin.

Nothing f which could be suggested, however, wIas free from objection. Out of the seven mills in Augusta, t only two were represented ill the conilventiou. Some of the 'residcnts were sick and oneo had gone to get s married.
