One of the busiest places In the 01
.whole college during the school B
year is the Library. It is here that ii
the students do most of the prep- tl
aration for their daily recitations. Si
For there is hardly a lesson given
that does not require some parallel vi
' reading in the library. tl
The students are given a course c]
of reference work during their ei
v first term in college. The aim of Si
the course is to make them famil- m
iar with the library and to train i hi
them in systematic and intelligent vl
use of books. A study is made
during the term of classification, w
the catalogue CPIlor-i 1 InHnvpu una ai
some of the standard books of ref- 1)1
erence. * C
This library is catalogued up-todate
by author, title, and subject, ei
Before the end of the first six
months of school, through the use li
of the catalogue, practically every L>
, girl in school is able to find anyjtt
book in the library which she may;
wish m
The library now contains 13,- id
544 well chosen volumes. The colo- ta
lection of old and out of fc
print South Carolina books is said n<
to be one of the finest in the T!
State.
We are subscribing to fifty-seven
periodicals. Slpecial effort is
being made to get a complete set
of the magazines subscribed for.
Among the most valuable recent ad- '5,'
ditions to our magazine files are .'
the following: Llttel's Living Age,
in two hundred and sixty-seven j
volumes beginning .in 1802, and cc
Nile's Weekly Register in seventy- j83
five volumes from 1811 to 1849.
^Through the use of Poole's, which K|
is an index to each article in j|C
more than two hundred magazines| r"
for the last one hundred years, and J?
the Reader's Guide, which is an f)
index to one hundred current pub- Vlications
and magazines prove 81
a valuable part of our reference;
collection. This library subscribes',
to several daily newspapers, and j
most of the county papers are sent
as a compliment to the girls of

Is afternoon.
a man named Jones is in the /
ty jail. Excitement in the neigh- v
>rl?ood of the Rice home was innse
but the police succeeded in p
stting the man locked up after
e girl had identified him. The
did was passing a clump oi
i8h S near the woods when the
an walked out toward her. She |
iniii iie spoKe to ner and then n<
ok hold of her and attempted to
move part of her clothing. She
reameda nd the sound of her cries T
ached Officer S. D. Taylor, and a j tl
mpanion who were driving near gj
e scene of the attempted crime. | .
hey called out to the girl and the ! ?
an rushed into the woods before
le officers reached the scene, how- e<
'er. The child had reached her w
)me nearby and rushed screaming
i her mother. The officers chasI
the man into the woods with a |
owd of railroad men who came tl
,)on the scene with them. They
lught Jones and brought him here
the child.
"That's the man. that's the man", U
ie girl cried hiding behind her' si
other's skirts. n
Despite the niutterings of the.
owd Officer Taylor placed Jones j *l
. the carriage and hurried him it
> the Rocky Mount jail. He Is'tl
arried and has one child. S(
Jones denies that he is the man.i
i an interview at the jail to-night j w
b said that he was coming home ?i
om his work and that he had not 1 h
sen the girl until the officer took j n
Lm before her. Officer Taylor de-1 ,
ares that Jones turned white and j
jpeared greatly frightened when a
9 arrested him. He did not ap- f<
Jar to have been drunk. Efforts e
ere made to get Jones out on .

. T. Thome. Up to a late hour

Jones will be given a speedy trial I

ie amendment yesterday of the e
tiarter of the South Carolina West- E
rn railway by the secretary of
tate. The company under amend- a
lent proposes to construct two j
ranch lines of railway from Harts
llle to Timmonsville and Sumter.
The South Carolina Western railay
was organized a year ago with J
a ultimate capital stock of $500,-j
1)0. During the year a line was
onstructed from McBee on the

The construction of the branch
ties will give the Seaboard Air
ine a connection with a large seeon
of the rich Pee Dee country. a
The officers seeking the amend- ei

Retinettsville, October 211. ? Six
rial: An unfortunate accident o<
cur-ed in tliio county yesterda
when Durant Cole ac ddentally she
an' killed his wife, Surah Cole.
It is said that Durant was acou;
tonied to loading his pistol i
night before going to bed an
in the morning removing the car
ridges from the chambers. H
started to break the pistol fc
the purpose of unloading it whe
it was discharged the hall takin
effect in the body of his wife, an
she died soon thereafter.
After a careful examination o
the part of Coroner T. P. McRa1
the jury returned a verdict to tl
effect that Sarah Cole had con
to her death by mischance, or acc
dent, this form of verdict inakin
the offence bailable before tl
cononer. Bail was granted to l)i
rant Cole in the sum of $500. Tl
body of Sarah Cole had hot bee
buried, awaiting the release of h<
husband that he might attend tl
funeral.
Death of Mrs. 1>. .1. Alford.
Creat was the gloom cast ov<
our neighborhood Thursday nig
when the news was spread that Mt
D. J. Alford was dead.
Although being in declinii
health for more than a year tl
end came almost as a thunder be
from a clear sky. Since her r
turn from the hospital, about thn
months ago she was so bright ai
cneenui, even able to make sho
visits in the neighborhood, \
hoped tliat she would be spared se
eral years yet,but God wiled it n
so, and Thursday night, though n
its well as common, she was talkii
with her loved ones around hi
bed about eight o'clock, slept
a few minutes, awoke and in a she
while apporently fell asleep aga
and then passed into the great b
yond. Although the summons can
so quickly we are assured that
came not to one unprepared. B
ing intimate with her 1 have heai
her speak repeatedly of death n<
with fear but at times almost Ion;
ingly, since the death of a belo
ed son, a little more than a yej
ago. She had not a shadow (
doubt that her calling and electic
were sure.
She was a woman of strong pe
sonal character, one of God's n<
ble women, nobly planned. Sim
being an invalid she was a great*
power for good than many in fu
possession of their faculties. Whei
ever there was need within hi
reach she was there in spirit
not in person. Many there ai
that will bless her memory fc
words and deeds.
She leaves to mourn their loss
