The news of the death of Dr. Jerome Bruce, a native of NewDerry who had made Florida his home, was received in Newberry with general sorrow. Dr. Bruce was highly esteemed by those of his native county whose pleasure it was to know him. THE NEGRO SCARE. The full synopsis of the report of the- county superintendent of educa tion, published in The Herald and News today, is a conclusive answer to the argument which has been ad vanced by politicians against compul sory education, to the effect that it will force the negroes to school. A careful study of this report ought to be made by every citizen of the county. Mrs. Mary B. Evans is encouraged in the support which is being given her in the matter of providing a rest room in the old court house for the ladies of the county. She has a great deal of energy, and she means to carry through this progressive movement. In this work she rightly deservres the support which is being given her by the county and city authorities, and she ought to have the active co-opera tion of all the business men of New berry. Now if Mr. Felder could have only managed that label case maybe it would have been more interesting; but Mr. Felder could not come.-Yorkville Enquirer. It .is perhaps just as well that Mr. Felder's pressing engagements pre vented his attendance. A man of Mr. Felder's delicately 'balanced and sen .sitive make-up might have been em barrassed by finding opposed to him in this case counsel who was by his side in a case not long ago in which Mr. Felder had far more personal in terest -POSSIBILITIES. It is not without the range of possi bility that we will at some time have a legislature which, without a referen dum, will provide for a system of per manent road work. It will cost some money to build permanent roads-and the howl will be long and dismal and blood-curdling. It is not unlikley that the men who put through such a measure would be snowed under in a succeeding election, if the election came soon after the enactment of the measure. But when the roads were used, and the advantages, in conven ience and in dollars and cents, were realized, the authors of the measure would be heroes, and some of those who kicked loudest against spending some money for permanent road work, instead of throwing it away in patch work, would be proclaiming loudly how they bad told the people all the time that permanent work was what was needed, and while it would take money to do it, it would 'be the best in ~vestment which the people could make. THE TUJRKO-IT ALIAN WAR. In this twentieth century of thE world's Christian civilization, it would seem that the nations could get to. gether and provide for the settlemeni of such disputes as that between Ital) and Turkey by arbitration. Every civ ilized nation has large forces of of ficers to prevent the settlement of pri 'vfate disputes by a resort to phys-ica violence, and to punish the offenders and yet these same nations, when i comes to a question among themselves do that which they have outlawed s< for as their citizens are concerned. The time has come in the progres: of the world when standing armie! and large' navies ought to be utilize< to enforce the decrees of an interna tional court of arbitration. The victory of one army over anoth er doesn't settle a question of righi victory usually goes to the larges force. In war might makes right. An international court of arbitration would be powerless without the might to enforce its decrees. . That is the use to which the United States army and the armies of England and Ger many and France and Italy and Japan, and all their dreadnoughts and criiis ers and destroyers ought to be put.

Buford, the loyal sher iff of Newberry county, was an inter ested spectator of the Red Shirt pa rade yesterday, but was unable other wise to participate In the celebration on account of a recent severe illness, from which he has not entirely recov ered. Capt. Buford commanded the largest company of Red Shirts in Newberry county in 1876, its 125 members appearing in the parade Hampton day in Newberry, hand somely mounted with a plume of Mex ican pampas grass, gaily waving from the bridle of each horse, a devbted woman having robbed her garden to make the plumes a gift. Capt. Bu ford also bears the distinction of being the only Democrat in Newtberry coun ty who was tried in the United States court at Charleston in 1871'on the charge of being a member of the mys terious Ku Klux Klan, having been drafted by the United States constab ulary, along with four Ku Klux .Klan prisoners from Laurens, with whomi test cases were made.

After an absence of three years from this section, the famous Thomas Dix On success, "The Clansman," has been given an elaborate revival for a tour of the South this season. News to this effect has just been ascertained from Manager Scurry, of the opera house, who states that he has completed arrangements with George H. Brennan, manager of the Southern Amusement company,' for an engagement in this city on Saturday, October 14. An entirely new scenic production has been provided for the big revival, and the forthcoming performance here will be an occasion of unusual import ance in theatrical circies. "The Clans man" is too well known in this city to necessitate lengthy comment. Suf fice it to say that the coming revival will .be the seventh year of unpreced ented success which the great South ern drama has enjoyed. Few plays can boast of such a racord. "The Clansman" is one of the plays of Southern life that has won universal success and popularity. The part of Silas Lynch, thle color ed lieutenant-gov'ernor in "The Clans man," is one of the best villan roles that has ever been written. It is rich with possibilities and requires an ex ceptionally capable actor for its inter pretation. All of the former actors who have played the part have said that they have derived keen enjoyment out of it. Mr. Paulson will appear as Lynch In the coming production of "The Clansman." "The Millionaire Kid." "The Millionaire Kid," the latest play from the pen of the well known writer, Lern B. Parker, deals with a subject familiar to us all, namely: the stock market and its various ramifica tions and at the same time a subject very little understood by the vast ma jority and as such is consequently of great interest to all. It throws a light on the questionable side of stock mar ket gambling, as conducted in a bucket shop. The story -is a play of intense interest and has been handled by the author in truly a masterful way. Throughout the action of the play a score of catchy musical numbers are rendered and are all of the kind that make your mouth pucker up to the whistling stage and refuse to leave your mind. These same numbers are emphasized by an exceptionally beau 1tiful and clever chorus. Mr. Parker has the happy faculty of mingling music in a drama without detracting from the action of the piece itself. 2The mounting of the play is up to -the usual Kilroy-Britton standard which is "excellent." Raymond Paine, the clever young singer and dancer, B:who had the same part last season, s agai been eagwed to imnerson SCE'NE FRO-M "THE CL ANSMAN," 0F GLlER .
