( I LAST WEEK'S FEOSTS. Gardens Wcro Affected Curiously Planes Boing Killed in Spot?. There was a frost of freakish varie ty last week. Its blight fell in spot and Mr. J. W. Bauer, section director of the weathc r bureau, is unable to say just what damage has been done. Tuis all depends upon the amount of moisture. Plants surrounded by dry soil were not affected as seriously as where there was dampness. In gardens which came under Mr. Bauens observation the frost seemed to attack the young vegetables with out any regularity. Oue plant appear ed to be killed while those around it were unhurt. No news from the peach crop in the ridge section could he learned Tuesday, hut as the frost was not altogether destructive here, it is hoped that the peach crop is not hurt?and indeed a slight pruning would not be harmful as there is such an abundance of blooms that if all should nature the trees would be un able to bear the load. Mr. Bauer last week issued the first of his weekly bulletins as to the grow ing crop. This one, under date of April 5th, says: "The week ending 8 a. m., April 4th, had nearly normal temperature, having been cooler than usual during the first and warmer than usual dur ing the second half. There were light frosts over the eastern portions on March 29th, increasing in severity to killing, with thin ice, in the western parts, but aside from causing some corn that was up to yellow slightly, no injury resulted. The week closed with abnormally cold weather prevail ing, and frost threatening the interior sections. "There was practically no precipi tation during the week. On March 2? 27th the rainfall was general over the State, and was excessive in places, greatly delaying farm work. Unbroken Jands are becoming hard in the north ern counties, but generally the soil is in fine condition for tillage. "The preparation of lands is report ed to be somewhat backward in a few western counties, but is generally nor mally advanced, and made rapid pro gress during the last week, especially the preparation of lands for cotton, and the placing of fertilizers in the ground. "From one-half to three-fourths of the proposed acreage to be planted to conn has already been planted in the eastern sections, the percentage de creasing toward the northwestern counties, where this work has only been begun. Corn planted early in March is, with few exceptions, up to fair stands, and some has received first cultivation. "A little short staple and consider able sea island cotton has been plant ed, but this work cannot be said to be generally under way, although, soil and weather permitting, will make rapid progress during the coming week in all parts of the State. "Rice planting has progressed fa vorably in the Georgetown district and was Impedf d with heavy rains and a freshet In the rivers in the Colleton district, where, previous to March 26th. a considerable area had already been sown. "Tobacco plants are small in the beds, but look healthy and vigorous; noue have as yet been transplanted. "Wheat and oats continue small, but have improved, except that oats have thin stands in places. Spring sown oats look well. "Peach trees have about finished blooming in the eastern sections, and are now in full bloom in the western counties. Apple trees are late in blooming. The prospects for all kinds or fruit are excellent. Cabbage, beets, peas and strawberries aie being shipped from the coast truck farms, Pasturage is scant and does not afford grazing in the western counties. There is wide spread complaints of a scarcity of farm laborers." Passing of a Fad. The Chicago board of education has condemned the vertical system of writing. Through its official bulletin the hoard says: "It is an injustice to the child to impose a system of hand writing upon him and force him to adhere to it through his growing years at the cost of not only suppressing his individuality in this acquired mode of expression, but also at the sacrifice of his time and the mental lluency that comes with the ease which accompan ies a mode of expression fitting the individuals characteristics."

Sixty-three Indians in a special car en route to Washington to see the President were smashed into by a mail train on the Chicago & North western, two miles west of Haywood, 111., Friday morning during a heavy fog. Three Indians were killed in stantly, three fatally wounded and 20 others more or less seriously injured. White Horse in charge of the Indians on the train, was fatally injured. The bodies of the Indians who had been killed were laid on the prairie beside the the track. Chief White Horse being carried with them. He said that he knew that death was near and requested that he be placed near his dead companions. The chief was propped up and sat stoically while physicians worked on his injuries. He smoked a pipe quietly, and gave no sign of the pain he must have suffer ed. Persons on the train say the wreck was unquesiionably caused by a fog, which stretched many miles from Lake Michigan. The Indians were from the reservation at Rush ville, Nebraska, and on a journey east ward primarily for show purposes at New York. All for Love. Miss Mabel Ludwig, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Ludwig, residing near Pansy, Lincoln county, Georgia, committed suicide sometime Wednes day afternoon, April 6. She'quietly took the revolver of her father or brother, and, going to a secluded woody place, about a mile from home, shot herself in the head, evidently dying immediately. An all-night) search for the mining girl only re vealed her lifeless corps, after daylight | Thursday morning. She was a beauti ful girl, about eighteen or nineteen years old. Rumor says that Miss Ludwig was engaged to be married, but the match had been broken off by her parents, which may have brought about her rash deed of self-destruc tion. Her parents and several broth ers and sisters are prostrated with grief. Her grandparents and many relatives reside'in and near; McCor mick MBS.
