Citadel Failed to Score Against New berry-Erskine Friday and Clem son Saturday. In two games played on the Char leston diamond on Monday and Tues day afternoons of this week the South Carolina Military Academy failed to score againct the Newberry college team. The score of the first game was 6 to o and that of the second game 7 to o. In the first game Simp son pitched for Newberry. gaining twelve men and yeilding but one hit. The support giver Simpson is shown by the fact that at the end of the game t there was not an er:or to Newberry's credit. The Citadel pitcher allowed seven hits and gained but four men. Errors, Citadel 4. In the second game Crouch pitch ed for Newberry. Hits: Citadel 5, Newberry 7; errors: Citadel 4, New berry 3. The News and Courier says of the game that "Newberry was sim ply too strong for the soldiers, and the latter had few chances qf winning the game or even s!oring.' Erskine in Greenwood Today. c The Newberry tean will go to Green- c wood today, where a game will be t played with Erskine on the Green wood diamond this afternoon, pre ceding the oratorical contest there to- t night. In two games with Newber ry this season Erskine has failed to t score. being severely defeated by t Newberry, one of the games being in Newberry and the other on the I Erskine diamond. With a large C crowd of fans from the homes of t both teams considerable enthusiasm is expected at* the game this after- t noon. and everybody expects New- e berry to win. Clemson Comes Saturday. On Saturday afternoon t'he Clem son team will be in Newberry. Dur- r ing the whole season this game has d been looked forward to by the local i enthusiasts, and one of the closest games ever seen on the home dia- c mond is expected. Clemson has a strong team, and so has Newberry. 3 Newberry has not yet lost a college P game and wants the pennant. The t teams are old rivals. 'having played h remarkably close games during tne s past several years. The game prom ises to be exciting from start to fin- h ish, and it seems probable that the at-b tendance will easily be the largest at a base ball game in Newberry for e a long time past.

The handsome couple and their you:hful attendants, pre- t ceded by the little Misses Ida May ~ Crisp and Pauline Slighn marched from the home of the bride's father, Mr. John Crisp, to the Chapel. which had been nicely decorated for the oc casion. The Chapel was wveil filled c by an appreciative. crowd. During t the ceremony a solemn stilln ess per- j vaded the hall. all seeming to realize the dignity of the occasion. After the vows were taken and an earnest blessing invoked the bridal party and invited guests returned to the bride's home. where a sumptuous wedding ~ feast was spread, and very much en joyed. The entire party was hand somely dressed in costumes suiting ~ the occasion, and the young couple ~ received quite a number of pretty and c useful presents. Mr. Henderson was a reared on a farm in Greenwood coun ty where his parents still liv'e. He has been working in the cotton mill for a number of years and is very 1 highly spoken of by thiose whin know him.

CROMER IN SALUDA. he Graded School Commencement -Two Addresses of Extraordi nary Merit. Mayor George B. Cromer, of this ity. was one of the speakers on the ccasion of the closing exercises of he Saluda graded school on Tues ay night of this week. The Saluda orrespondent of the State says of he exercises: The c0,&,.zcement exercises of he graded school at this place came o a close on Tuesday nig'nt. The au ience was the largest ever assem ded in the auditorium, and instead f one address as had been planned, here were two of extraordinary mer t. These were the chief features of he evening. One of these was deliv red by Dr. Geo. B. Cromer, of New erry, and the other by President F. ;. Baily, of the Edgefield institute. t came about this way: Dr. Cromer, vho consented some time ago to aake the literary address, wired Tues ay morning from Columbia that ow ag to the necessity of his presence a the supreme court he could rnt ome. A telephone message was at once ent President Baily, the situation ex lained to him and, to the delight of he trustees. teachers and patrons, e agreed to be present and at once tarted for Saluda. An hour'later Dr. romer wired from Columbia that is case in the supreme court had *een heard and he was on the way. As is knowvn, both of these genie rien are noted for their interest in ducation as well as for their scholar y attainments, and the large audi nce last night enjoyed a rare and nique treat. The addresses were profound. im ressive and clothed in chaste Eng sh. They were along educational nes, but were not of the made-to-or er kind. Preceding the addresses there ere exercises by the higher grades. :erticates of scholarship were given ~Miss Maddie E. Chapman. Joe. E. :roch and Will B. Carson. they hay g completed the course. At the~request of Mr. Alvin Ether dge, chairman of the board of trus es. the certificates wvere presented y President Baily. The people of Saluda are justly rud of their school.

From all of which it would ppear that the mayor was hungry rhen he got to Newberry on Tuies av-and afterwards. 'HE CAROLINA MANUFACTUR ING COMPANY.
