Pa.. pril 24.-As a pre- e antionary meiasure twenty-two detec- I ive. and a stilad of armed police aen were stationed in the Carneie N 4usic Hall during the a.ddress of t ,tw.ator Benjamin R, Tilliman, of f louthi cprolina, who discussed the aee lrobleml before the Park Avenue Allegheny) Athletie Club. Several Ixciting incidents occurred during the I p1dress. but no trouble ..resulted. rhere were but ten qgroes in the mtdience which filled the Mtsio Hall o overflowing. At the close of his address. in which ie declared the races in the $outli Vere gradually becoming more oppos -d to one another, Senator Tillman -alled for a vote of the audience as ) whether the negro was the equal if the wlite man. The entire audi mee. except the ten negroe, voted n the negative by rising. One man took exceptionis to Till nan's remarks and made several in erruptions. Tillman had him admit ie catme from Europe and then bitter y denounced Europeans in Arnerica v-ho undertake to judge questions 'oneerning this country. In speak nig of whether the negro can be edu ~ated, Senator Tillman declared that B~ooker' T. W~ashlingfton was the lhar >or of refuge anid safety to which ieople flee when other places fail, md that Booker T. Washington was me negro in ten millions, and was ialf white at that.

Newberry Plays Olemson On Local Diamond Tomorrow After noon. Xewhery college will Oross bats with lemIson (;n the local diamond tomuor row afternoon. Tle gzamle will lie -alled at 4 o'clock, and promises to >e fast and hotly contested through mit. Newberry has not lost a gamue his season but has not yet played iomson.The fans Wiho have watch 'd college base ball this season have licked out Newberry as the pennant vinner, bu(, while it may not be de isive of the chambionship. a good leal depends on the game tomorrow ifteri7oon.

President Scherer reports the estab ishment of three more scholarships, is follows: The Catherine Folk Schol tiship. by Capt. H. 11. Folk; the C. itulhern Scholarship, by the family md friend; the C. C. Habenielit scholarship, by Mrs. M. S. Haben chit. her donation of $1,000 having at eady been announced. This makes a otal of ten new scholarships founded luIing the current session in connee ion with the Pearsons endownment utheran Church Visitor. Pert Paragraphs. Pure obstinacy often looks like sourtage. It is idle to talk about work to a person -who regards this world sim ply as a rest cure. Impertinence is most amusing when you are in nowise concerned. Other people 's interest would be more endurable if they didl not eon flict with one's own. TPhe bread of independence is often distressingly shy of butter. Equallity is an evanescent some thing that your superiors ought to observe and your inferiors oughtn 't to expect. People who have no sense can 't do the best they can. There is not necessarily anything allied to honesty in real estate. Nev ertheless the possession of it often impels its possessors to pay their debts. Sometimes when a man has been done to a turn the turn is awvfully swift and the comeback extremely Responsibility often finds people1 too slippery to perch upon. When a woman marries a man for money tihe job is worth all she 'gets for it. If Mr. Carnegie's clipping bureau is working he must be wvondering as to whether Auguistans knowV their wants in the library line or not. An amateur astronomer has seen a new comet. As it happened in Mil wau~kee wve are at liberty to guess that thle cause wvas not whiskey. A ghost in Farragut, Iown, fled when a woman screamed. It is hlard to decide wVhetherl this is a reflection onl thme ghost or the woman's voice. The London womanl wvho sees a vis iod tof high blue splashed with pur >le when Melba sings would probably mave the monkeys if she heard Caruso. THE PRIOE o OOTTON. Anderson Farmers Sell Fourteen Hundred Bales at Eleven and Eleven and a Half Oents. The following is taken frout the An derson Daily lil of I Monday: "1Mr. T. T. Wakeflld, president of the County F1armt1ers' .lion, last week sold about 1.400 bales of cotton be longing to the farmers or the county, whto ild beenl holding for bet ter pri Ces. "'The price ranlged from 11 to 11 1-2 ents. One lot or several hun dred haleso brglit 11 1-2 vents all r'ounid. 'Tis closes out about all of the last seasons's rop that lh1s been held by the farmlwArs of tile couity. Very lit A t'armer inl this county. wito has somtethin over one humb-ed hales of it,. of't'ered it lst w%ieek t'or .10 7 -S. This sal in Anldersonl is referred to t'or tle reason that it is probable that. the A1derson 'armetrs seenlred a bet ter prie fot'r their cottoin ott aceount ot' being org'anized aid selling it in hlk. This fact alone stouild -be a 1 stiuillis anid an enleoulragement for the farimlers o Newherry- to join tle Farmers' l'tionl or the Cotton Asso eiation, and is a delmon.str 'a t iont of what ean hi done lby tinitod effort. A eotton Iilch'llan of Newberry stated on Wedneslay tlat Ie had paid 11 eents for cotton on this mar ket, hut it was a good 1rade of cot ton, and that the priee rang-ed from 7 to 11 ee,nts. it is htardly pr-obable that the entire lot otf 1400 hales sold in Aidersoln wats of tle best grade. Of course there is a difference in price owing- to the difference in -rade, but it does seem that the Ai (derson farmers seentred the price they did by virtue of their excellent or --anlization. MR.
