"1 John Howard Payne Anniversary (A Contributor in The Florence New*-He view) The present week mark* the seventy-fifth anniversary of the death of John Howard Payne, who wrote the immoital song, 'Home, Sweet Home," which was sung in public for the first time a little more than a cen'ury ago a* a pait of the opera "Ciari, or the Maid of Milan," produced at Covent Garden Theatre in Ixtndon. Payne was an American, bout in New York in 17U1. Hi* life was one of disappointment and misfortune. As a boy he was madly keen on the stugc, and at the age of twelve received his first chance to take up theatrical work, but his father, horrified at the mere idea of his son becoming an actor, had him apprenticed to a merchant. During the dreary existence that followed the boy found relief in publishing, unaided a small theatrical weekly paper which drew a certain amount of attention, hor two years he attended Union College at Schenectady, where he displayed his talents in editing and publishing a college paper. After his mother's death in 1?07, he gained the consent of his father', who had lost all his property, to his appearance upon the stage. He made his debut as Young Nerval at the Park 'I heat re in New York, February 21. and subsequently appeared in Boston, Baltimore und several other cities. Jn 1H12 he played Hamlet to Mr.-. Duff's Ophelia. At the age of twenty he went to London. At Drury Lane Theatre he gained fair success as an actor and playwright, but with nothing outstanding until 1 Slid, when he produced "Clari." On reviewing it he felt the second act could be improved, and forthwith wrote the words of "Home, Sweet Home." The music for the song he got adapted by Sir Henry Rowland Bishop from an air he once heard sung by a Sicilian peasant girl. And thus the song nearly the whole world knows came into being. Payne was present to hear the tremendous success the song achieved at ( ovent Garden, but the restless spirit of the wanderer was in him, and for twelve l'>ng years he made Kurope his a miles-. pathway. Although royalty s from "Home, Sweet Home" brought him in $10,000, the money oon slipped through his hand-, and ne had to go on writing for- hi- iive1 i h < - d. After his wanderings abroad he returned *n America, only fo find all friends were scattered. In his loneliness he gladly accepted the poj itioir <d I nite<l States consul at I u:.: -.

For thirty years his bones lay in that one spot of American soil in Africa/ until at last they were brought back to America. Before leaving Tunis the coffin lay for a while in the tiny Anglican church, and as it was borne | away to the ship for the last voyage i the organ played the beautiful strains i of "Home, Sweet Home." ? i And so at last came to its final I resting place all that remained of i the man who in life had never fouiel rest. A wanderer himself, he had soothed and tdWhed the heart of the world, brought tears to countless eyes, and raised half-forgotten memories in the breasts of the hardest bitten wanderers in all parts of the globe; all in those simple words, "Honjj. Sweet Home." Mountaineer Has Narrow Kscape Greenville, March 31.?When u man suddenly disappears in the mountains of upper Greenville county it usually means that he has been shot down. But this hoary conclusion in such cases proved today to be en|jiel> in error. ? Relatives of George Capps who lives in the Chestnut Springs section of the county, came to Greenville today and took out warrants for Homer Moody and Adger Moody, two young mountain men, charging them with the murder of Capps. The two had lured young Capps away from his home the night before and he had failed to show up again. Before the warrants could be nerved Capps walked into the sheriff's office and like Mark Twain established the fact that he was living, ail rumors to the contrary notwithstanding. The warrants were changed to read I assault and battery with intent to kill. Capps said that after calling him i out of the house the Moodys forced him to get quietly into their car and that a few miles down the mountain road when they disagreed as to the method of disposing of the body, he escaped. They fired into the mountain-side bushes after him but he made good his dash for liberty and fearing to return home slept in the woods overnight, he told the sheriff. The Moodys are in jail. How to Kill Cut Worms A Florence citizen writing to The I Columbia State, says:' ] Many years ago 1 found an infallible remedy for cut wo; ins A pinch j of cottonseed meal si altered on and around a plant will ?.b*ofutelv pro-' vyil the ravages of Mr. Cut Worm. If :l :s not washed off by rain it is a j small work to out it back. I do not I know whether i- is poisonous to the| j worm or men 'y distasteful to him. but it puts or. absolute crimp on him. The meal i- also a most excellent j i fertilizer and serves to give the plant a g-rod start. I have tried this on j cabbage, tomatoes, lettuce and many other kinds of plants with invariable -uccess. I also have a remedy for tomato blight which I have tried many times and with invariable success.

Dr. Frank Crane Says: Your Knowledge Has Power Knowledge is power?sometimes. It rs power only when it is practical knowledge. The mere acquisition of facts and information may make a man informed, hut unless those facts apply to what he undertakes they do not increase his power. You may learn all the intimate facts about all the Kings of Knglind without helping you appreciably in the cement business. It may make it easier to live with yourself, but it will not increase your power. Bariie has a play about a yacht full of educated people which goes aground upon an uninhabited island. The only man who knows what to do is the uneducated butler. He builds a shelter and hunts for food while the others stand helpless. 1 What little education he had was of | a "practical sort that applied to the needs of the moment. He had power because his knowledge applied there. In a drawingroom conversation the outers would have had power because their knowledge fitted the needs of that situation. Tho.-e who sneak of the failure of education make the mistake of thinking that power is the only end- of knowledge. ' > Knowledge is of three kinds. ih.' fossM There 'is knowledge tfcrtl power; knowledge that 'gives* knowledge that gives wisdom. Knowledge is like Hie food > into our systems.
