He looked at his watch, and replied that it lacked five minutes of 11, and then, being struck with an idea, he asked: "Why is my watch like yon, my pet?" "I don't know." "Because it is very pretty," he replied. "And why is my watch like you ?" she asked. MI don't know, I'm sure. Why is your watch like me, my dear?" "Because it won't go," sho replied, with a yawn. Then the young man went home, Columbia Register; "Frank Earle, col? ored, was convicted of murder at the Oc? tober term of Court for Anderson County, in 1883, and sentenced by Judge Kershaw to be hanged. The Governor has com? muted the death sentence to imprison? ment in the penitentiary for life. The petition for commutation was signed by nearly the entire bar of Anderson Coun? ty and was based upon the fact that the evidence showed that the prisoner did not intend to kill the deceased, as he struck him upon the head while engaged in a quarrel. It appeared from tho reports of the Judge and Solicitor that while it was a case of technical murder, yet there were mitigating circumstances in the case. There was no evidence of express mal? ice, and while the killing was withont just provocation, yet it was done in sud? den heat and passion. The petition ask? ed that the deatb penalty be commuted to a term of imprisonment not greater than ten years." THE ANDERSON FE AI ALE SEMINARY. The Annual Commencement Exercises? A Pleasant and Interesting Occasion. The Fourth Annual Commencement Exercises of the Anderson Female Semi? nary last Friday is pronounced by all as having been a most pleasant and interest? ing occasion. Indeed, it is the opinion of many that the exercises were far ahead of any Commencement of this Seminary in former years. The pupils, together with the friends and patrons of the Seminary, looked forward to the occasion with no little anticipation of interest and pleasure, and we verily believe no one was disap? pointed, as the occasion was a success throughout. As previously stated, the Baptist Church had been generously tendered Gen. Ay er in which to hold the exercises, for on former occasions the Seminary building had proved inadequate to ac? commodate the crowd in attendance. At the appointed hour Friday morning the Church, which is one of the most ample buildings in the city, was well filled by the pupils, friends and patrons of the Seminary. The exercises consisted chief? ly of reading the reports of the result of the examination of the various classes, interspersed at intervals with some excel? lent music by the pupils on the piano and organ. The institution graduated no j pupils this year, though a number of the j pupils evinced very high attainments in their classes. Every class had undergone j a thorough examination, and it was sur j prising, as well as gratifying, to see what a degree of proficiency many had at? tained. After these exercises were con? cluded, an invitation was extended to all to visit the Seminary buildings and view the drawings and paintings of the art pu? pils. The audience was then dismissed until the evening exercises. In the afternoon long before dark an eager throng could be seen wending their way to the Church. Remembering that the exercises were to begin at 8 o'clock sharp, we took up our march with the crowd, and were soon seated comfortably where we could see and hear everything that transpired. Within the building dextrous hands had been at work. Amid the glare of the lamps the scene was grand and beautifnl. A platform, which had been erected between the pulpit and pew, was beautifully and tastefully deco? rated with bright flowers and verdant evergreens. Resting upon the two front corner posts of the platform, ten or twelve feet high, was a beautiful arched frame, completely covered with flowers and evergreens, in the midst of which, in well formed letters, one could read "An? derson Female Seminary." In the rear of this, suspended from the other two comer posts, was the motto, "Excelsior." The platform and all its appointments were simply lovely. We never saw a more beautifully decorated stage. Promptly at 8 o'clock the pupils march? ed into the edifice and took the front and side pews, which had been reserved for them. By this time every available seat, both on the floor and in the galleries, was occupied. The crowd in attendance is variously estimated at from eight to twelve hundred. The exercises were opened with a prayer by Rev. T. F. Gadsden, of the Episcopal Church, who offered an elo? quent petition to the Giver of all good for tho advancement of the cause of learn? ing, and for the continued prosperity of the institution. The following pro* gramme was then rendered by the music pupils of the Seminary: "Two Forest Nymphs"?vocal duet Misses Lizzie Burriss and Cora Brown. "II Balen and Li La Stan chezza"?pi? ano and organ?Misses Adella Rasor and Othello Hutchinson. "Les Huguenots"?instrumental duet Misses Lois Watson and Cora Brown. "The Wood Nymph's Call"?vocal solo ?Miss Lula Long. "Streabog March"?instrumental trio Misses Florine Dickinson, Willie Cum mings and Mattie Newell. "Radieuse"?instrumental duet?Miss? es Mary Mattison and Lillie Moore. "In the Starlight"?vocal duet?Misses Lula Long and Lulau Ayer. "Rhapsodie Hongroise," No. 8?instru? mental solo?Miss Verna Ayer. "Les Dames de Seville"?instrumental duet?Misses Ella Whitfield and Olive Brown. "Zampa"?instrumental duet?Misses Annie Belle and Nellie Towers. After the rendition of the last named piece, Gen. Ayer introduced to the audi? ence Col. James Farrow, of Laurens, S. C, the orator for the occasion. Col. Far? row entertained his hearers for about twenty minutes, his subject being female education. He urged upon parents the importance of giving their daughters a thorough education, not only in litera? ture but also in the arts and sciences. He presented some interesting statistics, showing what was being done in foroign countries in the cause of education. He paid a high compliment to the Seminary, congratulating our people upon having such an institution in our midst. Col. j Farrow's address was listened, to very at tentively, and made a profound impress? ion upon bis bearers. At the conclusion of the address, the music programme was completed by the rendition of the following: "The Flower Girl"?vocal solo?Miss Lizzie Burriss. ??Rondo Capriccioso"?instrumental so? lo?Miss Varina Brown. "T?m O'Shanter"?instrumental duet ?Misses Cora and Lena Brown. "Schubert's Serenade?vocal solo?Miss Lulah Ayer. "The Rose Tree"?instrumental trio Misses Nina Lewis, Fanny Thomson and Gertrude Brownlee. "Open Diapason March"?piano and 1 organ?Misses Lois Watson, Lizzie Bur? riss and Una Daniels. "Esmeralda"?vocal solo?Miss Cora Brown, ?'Faust" ? instrumental duet?Misses Varina Brown and Verna Ayer. "Parting Hymn"?chorus?Misses Lu? lah Ayer, Nina Lewis, Lula Long, Mag? gie Simpson, Cora Brown, Lizzie Burriss and Verna Ayer. The young ladies who participated in these exercises acquitted themselves in a manner that reflected great credit upon them and their instructors. Tho audience was most charmingly entertained, as was evidenced by the frequent bursts of ap? plause. ? Gen. Ayer, the sagacious Principal, to? gether with bis accomplished faculty, have every reason to be congratulated upon the success of this occasion. It will long be remembered by all who attended. The Seminary has closed a very pros? perous session, having had one hundred and thirty-one pupils on its roll. The next session begins in August. Anderson Military School. Tbe patrons of the School and citizens of the city and surrounding community are not only cordially but most earnestly invited to be present at our closing exer? cises on June 18th and 19th.
