The Atlanta newspapers of last week ive had accounts of a Mrs. Capitola ,ood who war on trial in the court of -dinary in that city for several days id on Friday the jury rendered their .rdict favorable to the lady. .1. Me ain Woods. Eso.. a Clarendon boy ho for several years practiced law in annini was one of tne leading attor -vs in the case and so conducted it. as win the favorable comments of the -ess of the Gate City. We feel real -oud of 'McSwain and predict for him successful career. The following is .ken from the Constitution of the 3rd: Mrs. Capitola Woods, who has been ied on the charge of lunacy. was ursdav vindicated by a jury in Judge 'ilkinson's court. Thi; case has 'eated more interest than any case of is nature ever nad in this city. Mrs. oods statement to the jury was ten )i.rs long. breaking all previous cords in thnt respect. M.\rs. woed was represented by two tlanta's leading young attorneys. MeSwain Woods and Rollin H. Kim dI. and a more stoutly fought case auld be hard to imagine when the oecutor was represented by Burton nith. The jury who tried her make up a irse after the verdict, and presented to M\rs. Wood. The seemed indig tt at the idea of the prosecutor aip aling the case, as they appear to be eve that this woman has been grosslv istreated in the past. There is to be another hearing before dge Wilkinson this morning on aip tal, which may be good law, but to 'a rman it looks very much like trying use the courts to legalize an out geous wrong on a helpless woman. te was tried before twelve good and mest imett, who after ?~ve days patient Jring, decided she was sane. Not ithstanding the case was pushed by me of the foremost lawyers of the ate. If we are going to over-ride rdics of juries with quibbles, then man is t'afe. All you have to do is get some one to miake an aftidavit. d then the burden of proof is on the ~fendants, and not on the State.

The purpose of this Associa-' n at Clemson is to have a regular 'stem of correspondence, with local ipers. by which the people oif the State ight know her news. The lack of eh an organizationu has doubtless cost lemsn, already, more than can be ;timated. The people of the State can irdly be blamed for their harsh c'riti smaat times, for they have never been gularly and accurately informed as to* :r happenings; but, rather have been' red to content themselves with re ated news which grows worse with . e u~resent time. Clemson feeli. r much elated over the fact that a udent's Press Association has been ::anized. From this time on. it will aeavor to distribute the news of the dege to the various d.

Last year this I county was the Only one in the I'nited States with an instructor for the io5s' i Corn Club and the results were so 2 highly %uccesful that the Denartment has decided to continue the work. and in order to systematize it with tne other work that is being carried on have put it under the same manage ment and made itS part of the regular demonstration work that has been done for several years. The selection of Mr. White la a good one. and we are satistied that he will prove a capable assistant to Mr. Mc Faddin who has the distinction of be ing considered on, of the best agents of the demon-:tratiou work in this State. The oflicers of the Department ex press great regret at losing M r.

To the People of the South: It Is up to Vou to settIe the question of bringin people to cultivate the mil lions of idle acres in the South. Listen: The Wes:ern railroads are constantly working to draw away our people: to take their fares and have them produce traflic. One of them is calling on the people of a Western State to "write to every one you know in the East' and try to induce them to came West. Now let us go them one better, and write to every one you know in the West and try to get them to come "back home" for most, of them are Southerners and under present conditions can do better in the South than anywhere else in the world. Do not only ask your own friends and relatives to come "back home," but urge them to bring along every good man and woman they can find. Ask the railroads and boards of trade to send thetm literature. All you need to do is to give the names of people you think would make good Southern citizens. and the rilroads will send them just the kind of invitation and literature Ineeded to bring them "back home." The Western railroads know it takes people to build up a country, but let us compel them to look elsewhere to get them. The South has gone out of the emigration business. Let us keep our own and get back our own. W. D. ROBERTS. Johnson City. Tenn.. March 1. 1911. Of Interest to Teachers and Trustees. The State Teachers' Association meets in Columbia March 23rd-2)5th, in clusive. Rtequests have been maae by the State authorities that the trustees throughout the State permit their teachers to attend, giving them the two school days on full pay. These associa tion meetinas afford splendid oppor. tunities for teachers to meet each other, and to become better acquainted with the various problems that affect the line of work in which they are engaged This contact brightens them and gives renewed energy and determination to do more and better work when they return to their various positions. I hereby extend the request to the trus tees throughout the county to permit their teachers this privilege. I also appeal to every white teacher to take up this matter with your board and thus Iavatil yourselves of the advantages of this opportunity, feeling sure you and Ithe community you serve will be more than repaid for the loss of time. E. J. Bnow~r, County Supt. Education. Automobile on Fire Summerton, March ti.-Special: No little excitement was caused along the main street of the town Saturday after noon by reason of an automobile catch ing fire and being badly damaged before the arrival of the fire apparatus. It seems that two young men. one of them Mr. "Doc'' Dingle. the owner. were first made aware of their peril by the burst ing of something beneath the car while it was in motion. In a moment the flames had enveloped the woodwork. An alarm of fire was turned in. and ani automobile from the garage "hooked up" to the engine, and in its mad Ilight through the town causedl at least two near-runaways. For a few moments the1 street was greatly exctted. The loss to! the autowobile was considerable, but it is understood that it is covered by in jsurance. To be at peace with your neighbors often means war with you rself. The proud peacock of today may beI only a feather duster tomorrow. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, County of Clarendon.

In "The Glory of the Shia World." translated from a Persian manuscript, Is a story that will Interest Christian Scientists: "Nadir, builder of the 'golden porch of Nadir,' in the sacred city of Mesh ed, was a world conqueror and a lord of perception, albeit cruel. Of his power of perception they relate that one day when he entered the sacred shrine he saw a blind man Invoking the aid of the Imnm. and upon Inquiry he learned that he had been there for several months. The great monarch asked him why his faith was so weak that his sight had not been restored and swore that if on his return he found him still blind he would cut off his head. The wretched man prayed so fervently and fixed his mind so in tently on the imam that within a few minutes his sight was restored." Might Be In a Nice Fix.

A few year, ago two youn: negro bys from A frica found their way to Augusta, Georgia. They were taken in at Paine I Institute. and in some way fell into the charge of Miss E.lien Young. the Hamp ton graduate who ha; from its begin ning had charge of the work of the Woman's Home Department at that school. Sjhe taught andl helped the- boy, in every possible way. (e of thien contracted tubercul:sis and died. The other has returned to Africa as a sis sionary--himself a home missionary,and prepared for service by our home mis sion work in America. He writes to MNiss Young from Umgeni Mission Sta tion. Phoenix, Natal, "I know you be surprised to get this letter from me now at work since we have come in Africa. We have rent a hall use for service and night school. We have four members, one local preacher. We are waiting for Bishop Lambreth and Rev. John Gilbert. The people are all looking toward us for the great work. 4 Many people come to see us. Yet some people would separate be tween home and foreign mi.sions. How would they label the church of All Nations. or Nyatikazis preaching Pta tion in Umgeni, South Africa? sSSION.X.RY VOICE. UP-TO-DATE AND NOVEL. Advertising Methods Adopted by an Enter prisin Boese. That .\anning is fast become metro politan in the methods of advertising used by our nerchants to call the buy ing public's attention to the splendid values which they are offering, also that the wide-a-wake Zeigler's Phar macy is keeping up with and just a lit. tle ahead of the times in an advertis ing respect is again practically demon strated by what is perhaps the most elaborate system of advertising everat tempted by any business house in this section. namely: the giving away of the beautiful Upton Parlor Grand Piano which is now upon exhibition at their store. This piano retails at 8.00.OO each. guaranteed for ten years. The princi pat points of superiority of the cele brated Upton piano over any other of this class of instruments lie in the three strings in unison with overstrung bass, the splendidly pitched scale and true sounding board which give the Upton that rich, deep. even tone so much, ad mired. In a recent interview, with Dr. Zeig ler. regarding this decided innovation in advertising, Dr. Zeigler stated: "We have been enjoying the patrorage and confidence of the buyers of this com munity for some time now and by al ways trying to keep our stocks comnlete the saying that 'You can get it at Zeig lers' has become a household expres sion. In giving away this piano we are actuated by a double purpose, to show our appreciation of the patronage of our friends during the past, also to encour age new trade and to bring the many splendid values we are now showing in all lines to the attention of every buyer in this territory. The plan we are us ing in giving away this piano is equit able and fair to all, simply this, every person buying one dollar's worth of any thing in our store will receive a coupon good for 100 votes. The person return ing to us on Sept. 1st tne largest num ber of votes will be given the piano ab solutely free of all cost. No favors will be shown. Our reputation for 'square dealing' assures our customers of that fact.'' This four hundred dollar Upton Par lor Grand piano is surely a present worth having and we predict a very "merry race" for coupon votes during the next few months. Zeigler's Pharmacy is surely to be congratulated upon its broad-minded methods and "Trade Getter" advertis ing system. Notice of Discharge.
