CLEMSON'S MAIN BUILDIHQ TO BE SLOW- < LY REBUILT Governor Tillman yesterday afternoon returned from Clcmson College, where he has \ been attending the special meeting of the board of trustees of the institution, lie brought much interesting information in re- ( gard to the recent burning of the main 1 building and the action of the trustees in regard thereto. There is no intontiou on the part of the board to attempt to complete the rebuilding j of the burned structure before the end of the present session. The board has found, how- ( ever, that the total loss will be about $'20,000 less than was expected ; thnt is to say flint | I lie uuiiuiiiK can uu rv^iurcu us iv wn.^ iyi ?40,000, instead of $60,000. ( Governor Til!man says he did net find the , coilege as badly burned as he expected ; it did not look r.s badly demolished as he , thought. The walls of the main building v . m appear to be sound and strong. The * architects, Messrs. llrucc ."v: Morgan, were there. They lime not carefully examined the walls yet. but give it as their opinion , that most of them are perfectly sound and ( will be tit to use in the reconstruction. The portion of the walls which surround the I physical department are practically unfit for use The agricultural exhibit, containing considerable explosive material, caused a de- , . struc ion of the walls wlreh surround it. , The architects estimate that between 150,000 j and *200,000 brick will be required in the ; 1 __ reconstruction wotk. The tower to the P'/ ,J "nlVvfrnr. m AiV.W ;.ce" ts apparently i It was simply gutted like a finer ^ 'ocerned. The Governor says that the building can be replaced just a-< it was before tlie tire for au amount not exceeding $40,ooo. thus making the net loss to the .Slate of ?"2(1,00(1. The board has made tcmpor ry arrange- I incuts for the carrying eti of the icciintions and dni'y routine. The beard do r.ot expect lo liuvc the building ready for occupancy before the opening of the ne xt session. The board decided to have a tire corps organized among the boys and another among the nicnibcts of the faculty. The corps arc to drill every day and become thoroughly acquainted with the handling of the lire apparatus of I he college. Tilt: LK.WIMi of Ml ItKNTS. Governor Tillman was naked directly about the statement of one of the students to the etVect thai the buys were leaving the college, as published in The Slate of yesterday, lie says that it is true that a good many ot tho young men are g ittg liouie. He attiibutes this more, however, to the tight squeeze in money matters, which most of the boys are undergoing, lie says that some ol them are very poor and are really unable to remain longer at the college. The Governor says. too. th it a peculiar kind <d? holiday fever took possession of many of the students after the burning and it spread as such things will spread. They thought that the burning was going to give them a vacation. The Governor in a speech urged the hoys to stay. He docs not estimate that the number which has left !? as large as staled by the citui't. iic noes not mink I lie attendance will full bel<iw "it hi. ro Til K K.NC AMPMI \|\ In orilcr to partially <|iiell tlie holiday spirit rcferreil to :in 1 in give the cadet* tin experience of camp life, the hoard ha< decided to allow the corps to spend ten days at i the big military eneatiipinetit at Spartaahurg. , which begins on or about July 1.?

The terrible effects of this pernicious habit grows insidiously but none the less surely upon those who indulge in it, until, in ninety cases out of every hundred, it suddenly nstonishes ftiends and relatives by producing fully developed confirmed drunkards where it was not suspected that even moderate drinking was indulged in. This fatal habit is uot so freipiently seen or fe't by the citizens in the country as it is in the towns; but we can assure our country friends that the downfall of a large majority of the young tuo-i from the country who t ike positions in town, can h? traced to t lie whiskey hot lie in private rooms, where drinking is secretly indulge I in after the stores are close 1 and the labors of the day ended. Much as we are opposed to open barrooms we honestly believe they are not calculated to encourage the pernicious habit <>f secret drinking so much as the dispensary system. A young man goes in'o the barroom and buys bis drink openly, if he has not become i<'different to being seen there, drinks and leaves. Or lie may remain there ftn't o uouuv mo > avnilo uimii !* ???* % i go to h s home, or his room, drunk. That is all too sadly true, au I wc eouJemn the cause (the seller) as well as the result, ilut does ilie dispensary do nny m re to prevent that feature of the great evil than change the scene from the open barroom to the private rooms of the young men ?

I would preface my remarks, Mr. Editor, by assorti11tr that the friends and opponents of our presoot administration both have adherents unworthy of the nauie of free American citizens. These coat-tail-swingers that arc continually endeavoring to stir up party strife, from whom we would be infinitely better without, could we but free ourselves from them and turn them over In swaddling cloths again to our "strongminded'' Northern Sisters and let them give liieni lessons in what true Amcriciu citizenship should consist. And I would again assert that jour best men arc in accord with both tactions of the great Democ alio party in State politics ? some for ami soino against our present administration?in other words Tilltuau being chief representative many good men arc Till..,,,.1 nt, 11 .Tillittiiili t And while we respect every honest uian, ricli or poor, for his political opinion, we ask to'he allowed to have and hold the same privileges and still he considered brethren I know that you. Mr. liditor, cheerfully graot this right to us, although we differ concerning the administration of our ideas of reform under the leadership of tiov. It. U. Tillman. When Gov. It. K. Tillman was inaugurated ho lifted his right hand, nul in the presence of God and his fellow ci i/.ens, swore to enforce, to the best of his ability, the laws of the State. And the only crime for which he is, s> far, gui'ty, is the determine I endeavor to keep his oath. Mr. Kditor, wo have never yet seen a single valid specification brought aga.'usl the ollieial administration of our great Governor. We have heard with our ow n ears Governor Tillman's speeches and read those same speeehos distorted and misrepresented almost beyond recognizance by designing newspapers, tiov. Tillman has had more io contend with than any statesman the world has ever produced, and we behold him coming recently like adamant from the very teeth of the whiskey demon of South Carolina, aided by the money and influence of whiskey dealers the world over: and we sec him today s'anding coiiragcoiiGy in his course. Surely none but an instrument in the hands of the Almighty could hive borne and performed what our noble Governor nas. "As we measure lowers by their shadows, so we measure giant men by their calumniators." History tells us that Washington was censured as much by his generation as lie is praised by the present generation. So when time shall clear the smoke of political battle through which our great leader has >o successfully carried us. the world will place 15. II. Tillman among the greatest heroes and state-men. Tillman needs no newspaper lefen lers. lie never was more lirmly ingrafted in the hearts of the people in the rural districts of our State th in lie is today. I can't understand, Mi. 1". iiior, why even newspapers opposed to the administration will not pub isli some of the many g .od things said by papers outside the State concerning cur 15 iteriicr an l his administration.

C tlon was not killed, but much of it has shed its le ivc*, and if it it has made any growth during the week, it is imperceptible. Farmers are well up with their work and all are ucarly through chopping out cotton. Stands arc good, except iu a vary few instances. Stands of corn though are not good oil rough or damp lauds, for worms have been making ravages upon it, making replanting and re replanting necessary, conscquen'ly the oru is irregular.

Hints on Discipline. A chi?s tbal works well by itself has been well tuuuugcd. Au orderly cbaoging of places bctweon lessons signifies much regarding a teacher's coutrol of class. If the 4 teacher has to talk ntuck about order, there can be no good order. Make no threats, lie kind : be lira) ; be patient; be pleasant ; be self-contained ; be as perfect as you ask your pupils to be. Recitation Hints. Enlist the atlcuiion of every pupil so tlrtit the recitation of one pupil bo the recitation of every pupil. Resides engaging and holding the attention we should have a clear and well defined conception of what is to be no coutplished. Present the subject in an attractive style, so tempiingly that possession becomes desirable. Tvticli the pupil to think, to uualy an I to give correct expressions of thought. We should vary our methods, as topical, catechetical or discussiouttl. Be spirited, fellow teachers, energetic, lively, kind unit interesting. - - PUNCTUALITYDo you us teachers realize that punctuality is it vittue worth emphasizing niuoug school children Uught we 11 d strive to have them cultivate and practice this virtue at all times'.'

Do not have tiie hour for arithmetic enisumel by an extra amount of tiiue oti grammar, but do all ntit k at its pr iper time. By holding each pupil dirco'ly responsible for work which was to be prepared at a cert-tin time. Do iivt pcnu.t a pup I to hand you an exercise to-morrow that should he receive I to-day. Do not let him be one hour late with it. The next day, even the next hour, will bring its own work, and we can never --make up" mis spent time by trespassing on the future, whose work is already phinue I. :>. We should observe particularly which pupils arc generally ' one minute behind," and urge tlieui to be prompt. .Show them the (lunger lliut there is in procrastination : that it is truly the thief of time. Hive them certain work to be acc miplishcd at a certain tin.e, ntt'l get them into the habit of doing it without being reminded that the time has come. The child may have a treacherous memory ; if so, strive to help hiiu ir Moonee'.Table nays; have him to cmcctn if. a time set apart f >r such, his wholcatiention on s nne one thing for about five minutes at the time, and you will soon percciva a ralieal change in that boy's method of executing his work. If you have never tried it, do so at once Tlu-sv experiments must bo tried, I have tried them, and have fou d them most sitisfactory in their results. We must be altve to anything that will help the pupil and elevate and promote the school. Occasionally we should praise all ptipi s who are punctua'. Kiieour.ige ahem ; tell them that their life promises much, and much will be realize 1 if tlivy continue to practice this virtue, together with those of honesty and trutii'u'uo-s. We should also enumerate s une of il.e difficulties which arise from a s'ngle aet of tardiness in business life.
