Latest and Most Interesting Inven.
tion to Make Paper From

The manufacture of paper from the
fiber of throotton stalk la one of the
latest and most interesting luventlors
of the sew century, says Harris Jor
dan in Manufacturers Record. For
many years expert Inventors Vave been
busily engaged experlmentlrg with
the cotton stalk, and now It appears
from reoent developments that their
labors and expenditures of money are
to be rewarded with signal and strik
ing suoosss. Not only have these in
veellgaUoos passed the experimental
stage bat they are rapidly being snap
t^J ^3^5 Into practical opera
tion. It has btsn unq uestionably d#
■onstratad that all gradss of paper,
Iron tbs bsst form of Unemgnde to

tbs eotten stalks. In addition to tins,
a vsrlsty of by products, such as aloo-
bol. nitrogen, material for gun ootfcpe
and smokeleas power, can also be so*
sored in paring qunnvities. Toe time
is not now far distant when paper

The State board of education last

There has always been more or

to tbe esteem in which Dr. Clifton
was held by the citizeus of Sumter
was presented Sunday night week ago
at the First baptist Church, whither
800 or 1000 penons went to attend
service in his memory. The audience
was made up of a multitude who
seized, for the time at least, to have
forgotten or Ignored the fact that they
were not all members of the same re
ligious body.
The memorial service was conduct
ed by the pastor of the church, Rev.
O. O. Brown, D. D., In which the
meeting was held. Ha read a paper
concerning Dr. Clifton, which lie had
written for tbe Christian Advocate,
end then followed It up with a talk
of fifteen or twenty minutes upon
some of the traits whioh oharaoterts
ed the lamented dead.
, The tearful eyes and solemn faoesof
the multitude attested the foot that
they were heartily in sympathy with
the uttered word*. Dr. Clifton's wife
end children were present end exprees-
ed their thanks to many over the faot
that such a meeting bed been held.
The choir had selected special songs
for the oeeeaion, and the musle was
easing. Prof. Sehumaehar’i render
