Greenwood, May 22.-Greenwood Connie Maxwell orphanage fittingly to observed the fourteenth anniversary of tho reception of the first, child in- f. to the orphanage. The 22nd of May hi is the one ''big (ily'' of the year at the orphanage. It is the lay on s which a general holiday is given and ( the children, teachers, matrons and S all unite inl celebrating the day. s On May 22, 1892, the first child t was received. This lit.tle child was Susie Burton, and she is now married C and living in Macon, Georgia. She 1 Visited the orphanage last year. She n came to the orphanage from New- T ber'y county. p At. 9:30 in tie chapel special ex- tj crcises were held. Dr. 11. A. Bagby d led inl tle opening prayer. Special mutisic was rendered under tihe diree- l tion'of Mrs. Joel S. Aiken, of Green- la wood. All of the children were pres ent and ninny interested friends from v Greenwood as well. The address of J.he occasion was delivered by Dr. W. r P. Jacobs, the well known head of p the Thornwell orphanage. He Con- f, gratulated Connie Maxwell orphan- il age on the rapid1 progr1ess it has made, b and its splendid equipment, and upon so much having been accomplished in fourteen years. From one building In 1892 it has grown to sixteen hand some oiles, and counting all buildings a, it has twenty-five. Dr. Jacobs did not. speak on any i particular phase of orphanage work, a but directed himself specially to the g children. le had no regular text, but I spoke to them about the truth of this motto: '')on't try to be happy, but a try to be good.'' The convincing B corollary being, ''No one can be good b without being happy.'' He spoke for i, one hour, hut. not a single little tot was a hit weary al tle eld of that tline. The (h.ildreni were elairmed V wit him, as are all chiiren every- I wwre. IlIe related many initrestilg incidents in the lire t' the 'I'hoinwell it orphnage. At the concluision of his address lie speVnt a long time with the children, talking with them, finding out each one's name and charming . them Mtill more. a< '.Tle Rev. A. T. Jamison, the super- til intenddnt, read the minutes of the C, first meeting of the board and gave y a sueciet. report of the work of the d orphanage. Its growth has been sim ply imiarvellouls. More credit for its growth aid present high stand of , efliciency is due more to his efforts , than to anyone else. He, like Dr. Ja- o cobs, seenis born to the work. il Sale of Union Cotton Mills. i Union.

Now that the government grazil olicy is in successful operation ( lie National forest reservos, the que ion has arisen whether the same ( ,ne similar policy might not be al liedl to the open publie range.

Happily, these restrictions hai is far met with geieral approval. I-rolm the first, Ole imiportaneo< tinlg the reguila1tions to local cond ons has been reoglonized. Rules o lsit)1ing needless hardshi'l)to stoci ien have beei madified, and ene eneies deianiiding instant actic ave been prompllltly melM. When a new reserve his been pr< Inimied all stick g-razing uponi it 1lowed to remain during the fir ear: if, afterwards, this miumber 1mind to be too great for the r Mirees of the range, it is graduall -duieed. Stockmen are aided in e: eing a satisfactory distribution c itir stock upon the range and in so iring from it the most profitable an erianent use. Small stock ownei :ing in the vicinity of the reservi 'e given sich preference in the allo lent of grazing privileges as wi rotect their interests. First 'occi ants of the range and farmers owl ig improved lands adjacent are ah referred. The rights of large owl i-s based upon the range custom ( e past are recognized, and redu ons in the number oftheir stock ai )uired only when necessary to pro t tle ralnge of tle grazilg rights mla fide settlers. Necessary range divisions betwe wners of different kinds of stock a1 Ulde, and controversy betN/ ilepi1enl alnd cattlemenil is prompt Ided. Where necessary, the col riietion of drift or division fenei also allowed, provided the aro ced is not g-reater than the nec C the stock owner. Outside the forest reserves, hoi rer, is an area of public land, est tated at 400,000,000 acres, which hi o present value except for grazii urposes. Oii this land grazing holly unrestrained by law. Con ercial interests, great and smai ave competed for its use, and I sult has been abuse of the rang illions of acres have been recklessi ergrazed and practically ruined. I is last annual message the preside: iys: "It is probable that the pre at grazing value of the open pul C range is scarcely more than ha hat it once was or what it mig sily be again under careful regul. (an.'' Some stockmnen have, to il elusionl of others, possessed thier ivles of the strategie positions aut is, the lands controlling ti reamns, springs, and other waterir aces, and by this means have s ired temporary control of the ai >ininig grazing lands. Chlarges ; audulent entry have led to litig on. Great areas have been illegal meed. Again, stock owners, not y shleep and cattle men, have d emded their conflicetinig claims 1 >rce of arms, causing serious loss< operty and even of life. Obviously such conditions shon Ie corrected by law. The remes ~ould seem to be to apply to the op: ubie range the regulations alrea: ~overning thle forest reserves. TI nelusion is strengthened not oni y~ the success attending the fore: 'serve policy, but also by the eff f fencing the public grazing lanl( 'houghi illegal, this fencing has ost eases greatly improvedl the~ cc itionl of the area inclosed. Care, ho ver*, must be taken to avoid the r= liction of sweeping and ironel eglations to an area so vast andi oditionis so different. The ives ations of thle Public Lands Comm ion show that immediate applicati f any inflexible rule to all grazi nds alike, regardless of local cc itions 01' grazing values, would isastrous, and that improvemc iinst lbe soughlt through the gradr ntroduction into each locality uchi form of control as is specifica1 uited to it. In his message, already referred he p)resident says: " The best use of the public gr'azi ads requires the careful examiri ion and classification of these Ian n order to give each settler Ia1 nough to suppport his family and ore.

Should the policy thus suggested be established by law great good would undoubtedly result., A Mean Trick. Now York. Sun. A New York woani who had read of the romantic idea of stuffing sofa pillows with old love letters decided n to put the plan into execution. Her courtship had extended over a period > of two years. In that time she had written 746 letters, her husband 715. All this im11passioled correspolndelnce i was stuffed into g'een satin pillows', O, which were placed side by side on the it sofa. Wliei the pillows began to get ig dusty she packed them away in scent t ed tissue paper and put them in a T dark closet. Once a week she took them out and patted them and said 'Dear Heniry.'' - One day last week the woman re nemiibered a eertain poetic effusion -1she had one time written to Henry. - She wished to see just how she had worded it, so she - opened Henry's pillow and looked for the letter. It was not there. None of her letters were there. Instead of stuffing 'his t pillow with her loving epistles Henry. tlie wretch, had used old bills and business letters and circulars, because Y as he shamelessly admitted when taxed with his disloyalty, he didn't want to take chances on being made a fool of by having "'all that tom myrot brought up against him when lie reached the age of gray hairs and ' discretion.''
