THE VMIG TIMES. I rann -inigr, S. C. Ci le re S. A. NETTLES. Editor. p tb cl Bill Arp's Baby Girl Goes to College. rc These are solemn times now-there cc is nobody dead or dying, but there si is a lost child, and that-is nearly as i sad. We kcow where she is, for we D( sent her there; but it is bard on the ss old folks to send their youngest child ri away, especially when she is a girl w and the last of the litter. It took us tl a few days to realize that she had pi gone. Sometimes she goes to spend B a night with a schoolmate, and it ut seemed like she was there and would h soon come back, but she doesn't. ir Her piano is closed, and its dark rose wood case looks darker now. There a is a feeling of badness around the N house. The sewing machine is hav- tj iug a rest, for she made her own ti clothes, and she cleans up the house il and sets the table and lights the lamps and helps her mother, and t( when the cook quits she can make as si good a biscuit as I can. She loves al hr home and loves me, and when I as am. grunty or sad she knows it and o1 rubs my head with cologne and combs N my back hair and cheers me up, and b I get well, but I am sick right now w and she is not here. 1 I was in hopes we could finish her w schooling right here, but we can't. te - We have no college and the high tc school is limited by poverty. We are il taxed enough in all good conscience h to have anything we want. I am pay- s ing now about one hundred dollars a p, year for other people's children, and 01 have to send off my own. There are I many parents here doing the same al thing and to my my mind it is all N wrong in principle. Our county pays tU $17,000 to the school fund of the ic btate and we get back only $7.000 of cl it. The other $10,000 is scattered all n, over the State to educate white and w black. Our town pays out $1,000 a w year to educate the negroes in the h, corporation, and we get no thanks r< for that. All this tax is base-1 upon ai the idea that we get it all back in a making good citizens out of the chil- hb dren as they grow up. If that is a: really so, we will try and be content, s bat the whole system is a strain upon w our philanthropy. Every community would like to keep their money at a' home, and if it is not spent right we can make a fuss about it. Our town pays $6,000 for school tax and our ,county pays $17,000 more, and we y4 can't help thinking that if we could p -keep the $10,000 that is sent away what a home college we could build a in our own community. Ten 'thous and dollars a year for an income it - would give us a first class institution, , and it would save us a big lot of a noney, besides $2,000 a year that is , going away right now from this town to other female colleges. That makes a $12,000 a year that we are out of b pocket, and our people are not happy. y But all's well that ends well. t ~-Our Jessie has gone to college, to a G<,higher at home. And besides, it was a1 thought best to send her away for1it -rest and repose. A number of our n best girls have been sent away recent- s y for repose. The boys of the town ,w don't seem to have very much to & kl and so they indulge ini the delightful a Semployment of visiting the school Sgirls and this disturbs their tranquil- p ity and distracts their s':aceptible lx ~minds from study and wholesome reading and meditation. By day andg %fb nght they are coming and going . ugetting up parties and playing fxenmis and baseball and other -hilani ties, and as it couldent be stopped ~ without bad manners it was thought ce ~best to send the girls away and let iy ~tem stay until their minds came gi bahto them. I heard one afflicted tpre say thathe was was afraid his dager' mind was clean gone. We G account, but she does need some time ~ that she can call her own. Some as time to read and study and devote to at her music. She is gone now-and ti< the boys will frequent these parts no n more, I reckon. No more will we be cd entertained with the thrilling narra- D tives sof baseball, and tennis, and the so droie achievements of the Cedartown nine, and the Acworth nine, and the s Oartersville lawn tennis club that cost :' 40)'for its equipment. I heard Sam Jones preach a ser mon once to parents about these ~ Ssame troubles, and he stretched forth hi his band and said, "Now, boys, I see or you here, andlIwant you to hear me. ( I-want you to keep away from my house until I tell you to come. My at daugh.*ers are at school, and I don't vi wan't their minds distracted from ax their studies. I like you and I like k your fathers and mothers, but there is atime for all things, and you must keep away from my house. Well, of corse, if you come I will treat you be politely and invite you into the par- th lr, and I'll send for Bob and Paul to I come in and entertain you, and if you in can make anything off of Bob and or Paul you are welcome to it, but you er shan't see my daughters."" Well, it's right hard to drive the ax boys away, for they come with good w intent, and I never saw a mother wlbo si a~was not uleased with attention to her J~ daughter, and I never saw a daugh- th ter who was offended at it, and so we h< just had to send the girls away. Of in course, it costs money, but what is . money compared with the restoration of a disordered mind ? I restored is Mrs. Arp's mind by marrying her at when she was just sweet sixteen, and Ci some of these boys want to try the -same medicine. It's most astonishing how close the w youngest child gets to a parent's tA heart-the boy to his mother's heart, e, and the girl to her father's. One by th one the older ones marry or leave us, re an. -we get weaned after a'time and d( take fresh hold and cling the closer to the last. The sweetest pathos in Sthe Bible is the pleading of Judahi for his little brother Benjamin. It made ~ Joseph weep and it makes me weep ' every time I read it. Our "Benjamin" I ' hasn't got acoat of many colors, but I he has a spotted cap and a redt suringle that he wears, and I'm -afraid the Ishmaelites will get him some of these days. Bxu.

Leonard, of neinnati, recently to a Morinuig urnal man, "was during a visit I cently. made to New York in com LDY with my sister. We went to e Grand Union hotel, and I request [the clerk to give us a couple of ljoining rooms. I understood the erk to say that we were assigned to >oms Nos. 98 and 101. We were inducted to the rooms, and I was iown to No. 99. Shortly afterward y sister informed me that she could >t succeed in getting any one to an ver the bell, and requested me to ng mine and order a pitcher of ice ater for her. I rang and requested e boy who responded to take a teher of ice water to room No. 101. efore going down stairs, a few min :es later, I asked my sister if she id received the ice water, and was formed that she had not. I rang ;ain and told the second boy to take pitcher of ice water water to room o. 101. I went below and soon re irned, and was surprised to learn tat no ice water had been delivered L my sister's room. "By that time I was interested and ild my sister that I would see that ie got some ice water if I had to go ter it myself. So I rang once more id told the bell boy that a pitcher ice water must be taken to room o. 101 right away. and he said that ) would surely attend to it. After aiting some time I made inquiry of y sister again, and she said no ice ater had come, and begged me not bother myself about it, as it seemed be a hopeless task. But I replied tat water was cheap, and she should ive some sure. I went to the per >n in charge of our corridor and referred a request that a pitcher ice water be sent to room No. 101. received a promise that it should be tended to instantly. But it wasn't. [y next attempt was to prevail upon ie elevator boy to take a pitcher of e water to room No. 101. He de ared that he would do so on the ?xt trip. He failed. In despair I ent to the office of the hotel and iked the clerk if it were possible to ve a-pitcher of ice water sent to >om No. 101. 'Certainly,' was the 1swer; 'that can be done without iy trouble.' 'I have been trying to ive it doine ever since I came here, id I haven't made the riffle yet,' I d, 'and if it is a possible thing I ould like to have it done.' "Later I stepped into the elevator, 2d the boy there asked me if I were ying up to the 101 floor. " 'Yes,' I responded. 'Why ?' "'A hundred and one will throw >u out of the window if he catches >u,' said the boy. " 'What are you talking about?' I sked. "'Why, there is a bride in a room i 101, and you have been firing ice ater into their room all the evening Ad the man is wild. He swears be ill murder you.' "Upon investigation I found that y sister's room was not 101 at all at was 96. My room was 99, and, my sister's room was next to it, ] ought it was 101. There I had nt about ten pitchers of ice water to cf! af -onrce ror a ad 101 for 4 o'clock the next morn g when I was down stairs last, and ver thought to have it changed. at 4 oclock the bride and groom ere awakened by a thundering ock at their door, which made Lem furious, and they were firmly rsuaded that the early call was a irt of the ice water fiend's scheme annoy them.

A great deal of interest was manifested by e business men of the city, and the court ase was crowded during the entire hear g. Feeling ran pretty strong for and iinst the accused senator. There was a 'eat deal of the testimony that was very unsing to the spectators. Senator B3igham a man with manny stril-in.; peculiarities, d these were caricatumed by the prose. tting witnesses. 'Thle verdict was a sur 'ise to many, as the Senator was fonnd tilty. The charge of assault and battery th intent to kill and carrying concealed 3apons was continued.

"Adamant" Wall Plaster Best Material for Walls and Ceilings Ever Put Be fore the Public. The only thing about a building that has not improved for ovei' 1,000 years is lime laster. But there is no excuse hereafter for falling ceilings, erumbling walls, broken and defaced decorations. ADAMANT is not a guess work mixture of lime, hair, and sand: it is a machine made mortar, containing no lime: it comes dry in bags ready to be used at any s'eason by mixing with water only. Any mason can apply it: bursting pipes or leaky roofs will not elre'ct it. It's the beet known fire resisting material in the world, and1 it is impervious to disease germs. Architects, Engineers, and Scientific Men Everywhere, Endorse It, and 300,000 buildings plastered within three years, is the only testimonial we need offer.
