NEWBERRY COLLEGE REUNION. [
"Bill Snooks" Entertainingly l>e- ]
scribes the Ehrhardt Celebration.
Khraakdt, August 2S,?It does
look like something happens every .J
day down here at Khrhardt. Last
Wednesday, the 23rd instant, was
the day set apart and used for Newberry
College. The day was spent,
and well spent ; the speakers spoke,
and spoke well. All the day long .
it was an intellectual feast, with i
chicken, rice, biscuits, coffee, beef, \
pork, tomatoes, puddings, salads, .
and "cakes, pies, and things' as re- j
fresbmeuts. .
By ten o'clock fully six hundred (
people had congregated at Mt. Pleas- ]
ant Church, and, after the house ,
had been called to order by Presi- j ]
dent J. B. 0. Hollo way, the meeting j |
was formally opened with divine h
services, conducted by the Bev. Dr. ,
Henry Wingard, of Georgia.
The address of welcome was made
by Mr J. O'Connell Cassidy, after .
which we all not ouly knew that we
were there but that we were wel- ,
come. This was responded to in a ?
manner very befitting the occasion {
by Mr. W. A. Bast. These two young
men, the former of Colleton county, j
the latter of Orangeburg, are of the ]
class of '99. They acted their re- i
spective parts with becoming grace, j
leaving the school-boy-Fourth-ofJuly
style far in the background.
-AVe next 1^1 the pleasure of lis- \
tening to an address by Prof. E. B. t
qof rr ] av atl* ba?? ! *? pai ia/ya \ a i 4
j VX ^!? Utll > Wll^gV* xiv \
attempted outline would do the ^
speaker justice; he ably upheld the
denominational college, and refuted, i
to the entire satisfactionof all pres- >(
eut, the argument advanced by some <
that only State institutions make \
patriotic citizens; bis language~was g
well chosen, sentences concise, and g
arguments logically advanced. 1
At this juncture, Rev. J. H. Wilson
made some announcements, the (
most important of which was that J
the time for dinner had arrived, i
The physical man was fed to his en- \
lire satisfaction, and many baskets j
of fragments were taken up, which
plainly showed that we had enough j
to eat. After a recess of about two
hours we went hack into the house,
and took up just where we liad^ left
off. :
The next speaker onT^e program
was Rev. H. A. McCullough, of Orangeburg,
who was sick and unable
to be with us, but showed his interest
in our work by sending his
speech. On motion this speech was
read by Mr. Willie Aiken Rast. Mr.
McCullough took ,for his subject,
"The Influence of a Christian College/'
which had been thoughtfully
prepared, anu well showed that he
knew by experience what he was
talking about. By the way, he is an
alumuus of Newberry College, of
the class of '93.
Dr. Wingard was now introduced.

for a long time worked in the Orangeburg
conference, and has always
been an enthusiastic supporter ,
of Newberry College; he is a brother 1
of Mrs. Dan Weimar, whom all of
us here know and esteem. He was
a student at the college before the
Civil War broke out, and it #was
principally about the college in ante ,
bellum days that he spoke. He
called to mind his schoolmates of j
this section, makiug his remarks
very interesting. His talk was short, j
spicy, and to the point.
Prof. Geo. B. Cromer, president '
of Newberry College, was the next 1
speaker. To those who know Prof. .
Cromer it is enough to say that his
speech was characteristic of the |
man. Sometimes we listen to speakers
because we think we ought* to
but it would be a very hard matter
not to listen to Prof. Cromer" It 1
does not do the other speakers in- ^
justice to say that he appeared to me
to be a magnet to which we were all
wPh oue accord attracted. His subject
was "The Formation of Char- (
act?r," which he treated in a schol- .
arly manner. l
A few remarks were now made by {
Mr. J. B. 0, Holloway, president of s
the reuuion, in which he thanked lis j
all for havi.ig come, and the choir j
especially for services rendered. f
A business meeting was held, in s
which Mr. Hollo way was re-elected 5
president, and Her, H. A. McCul- ]
lough and Mr. T. I). Jones were i
elected vice-president and secretary
respectively.
After a benediction by Dr. Win- j
gard the reunion was dismissed,and 1
we all more or less went home, some <
to one place and some to another.

RIALS AN1) TRIBULATIONS OF
YE EDITOR AND YE PRINTER.
In O'er-trne Tale in a Vernacular
That is Intelligible Even to the
Uninitiated Lay Reader. '
SEXTO?THE FOLDING OF THE PAPER.
The Devil was correct in his surmises
: the Horse was stalled sure
mough, and when, after a vain effort
to urge Her forward, with whip
tnd voice, from his seat, the Printer
jumped from the Wagon, and made
in examination of the physical conlit
ion of the Beast, he discovered?
novice in matters equine though he
was?that the poor Brute's heavy,
labored breathing, Her drooping
head, Her generally limp and runto-seed
appearance, indicated but
me thing, and he said to his companion
:
"This sand is very heavy, Devil,
tnd She is tired out!"
"I reckiti She's 'bout et Her las'
?isp," was the Imp's conjecture.
'W'uMn'f c'ririsp nip pf Shp flronrtpd
le'd right where She stands."
"Poor Beast," continued the Printer,
who is naturally a very tender
hearted man, and he went to the
Animal's head and began to stroke
Her nose.
"Ha!"
This latter exclamation came
:rom him with such suddenness and
auction, that the Devil cried "Hully
.Tee!" and clambered nimbly to the
ground.
The Printer pointed to the Horse's
leek, and there was apparent one,
it least, of the causes of the Horse,s
stoppage. The hames had slipped
inder the "loose collar," and the
sharp, leather-cove red iron on one
side was buried in the depths of the
jig raw sore.
"No wonder She stopped. Dat's
muff ter stop a Bull Butfler or er
Renoseros!" was the Devil's com
went, while the Printer loosened
the hames and put them back in
olafce.
The tired Horse sighed gratefully,
and turning Her
HAMMER-LIKE HEAD
rested Her nose against the Printer's
arm. This dumb evidence of thankfulness
so touched the Devil's tough
little heart that he threw away the
Whip, and declared under his
breath that he
"W'u'd be dinged ef he w'n'dn't
ruther walk an' he'p tote der Forms
den mek dat ole De'd an' Alive
(ninnr flin nil 11 Mm
^ui^auiug biiv iavi ovj ^uii unit*
The Printer was similarly minded,
and they both pulled fodder
from a neighboring corn field and
fed the jaded Animal, who showed
Her appreciation of their kindness
by eating Ravenously.
When it looked as though every
corn stalk in the field would have to
be denuded of its blades to satisfy
the Brute's appetite, and when the
Beast had rested a full half hour,
the Printer and the Deyil both noticed
that the sky had become gradually
overcast, aud that a storm was
approaching.
"ItVgoing to rain," said the
Printer, pointing to 'the angry,
leaden-colored h'eavens, "and we
must get to soipe place of shelter
Devil. You drive and I will push
behind."
"0. K., podner," responded the
Demon, and he clambered to his
perch on the high seat of the WagOiii
ind picked up the reins.
The Printer went to the rear of
;he Wagon, and, bracing his feet,
jet his shoulder against the tail
3oard.
"Are you ready?" he demanded.
"Yep!" was the answer, and by
lint of much pushing and constant
fells of encouragement, the Horse
vas started forward again.
They were on

sputtering hiss in the hot sand?
;till no house in sight?suddenly the
[Iorse stopped?no amount of pusling
or shoutiug would urge Her forvard.
"Dis time," cried the Devil deectedly,
and he threw down the
eins, "we gits der rinky-dink fur
shore !"
The Printer went around to the
Horse's head and began to stroke
md pet the poor Brute. The fall of
;he rain drops increased, and, sudlenly,
preceded by a sharp flash of
ightuing and an angry roar of
bunder, the storm burst upon
diem. The Devil, "to save his Sunlay
hat," pulled that covering from
tiis round, bullet-like head, and
:ucked it away under the Rubber
Blanket. The Printer took the bridle
and essayed to urge the Horse
forward. After much effort be
succeeded, and they took up their
weary march again, while the lightiingflashed,
and the thunder roared,
ind the blinding rain descended in
torrents. In a few moments both
lie and the Devil were soaking wet,
ind great clouds of steam rose from
the Horse's hot body.
It was altogether a very uncomt?

head and running off a tiny
stream from the end of each stubby)
lair, that he burst into a loud guffaw.
The laugh sounded verv

loarse and goblin-like in that mois j
ture-saturated atmosphere, and when I
the Devil cackled a shrill echo of the!
nirthful ebullition it so frightened
he llorse that she sprang forward;
vith a sudden leap, wrenching the!
iridic from the Printer's grasp and !
learly precipiiatinghim beneath the'
feet of the Beast. At the same time
he caught a momentary glimpse of
the Devil's short legs sticking
straight up in the air. as his dimiu
utive body shot over the back of the
seat to the bed of the Wagon, still
clinging to the reins, with a grasp
$0 tenacious that the Mad Gait of:
the Horse was.checked. The Devil
was in nowise injured by his involuntary
back somersault, and, siill
grinning, climbed to his seat again.
The Horse seemed both willing and
anxious to continue the journey, the
road was firmer and had a trifling
incline, and the Printer, his soggy
garments clinging to his body, took
his old place on the seat of the
Black Wagon, and they went 011.
?nfl/lf?rdv it. ocased to rain, and
> V 7
the sun burst forth in such fierce
intensity that both of the travelers
were soon comfortable, and dry;
again, and the Devil was forced to
don his "Sunday" head gear. For;
some distance they rode in silence.
It was broken by the Devil.
"Dat soakin' rn'ed me sleepy," lie
said. "Ef yer t'ink yer kin manage
Graveyard, I'll tek a snooze."
The Printer assured hi in that he
felt fully competent to
MANAGE THE BRUTE,
and the little fellow curled up in
the bottom of the Wagon, with his
jacket for a pillow, and was soon
snoring shrilly.
The Horse plodded on, always at
a slow walk, and the Printer, finding
that he had smoked his last
cheroot and chewed his last chew of
"Early Bird," turned for consolation
to the jug of?artesian water.
It was empty!
And then, and not till then, did
the whole nrsery of his situation I
dawn upon him, and he cursed in a
variety of tongues and lingoes, aud
with an earnestness of uuction that
would have done credit to a Pirate
on the Snanish Main. The Devil
slept on, but, when the Printer had
exhausted his vocabulary of expletives
and relapsed into moody silence,
the little fellow climbed back
to his perch on the seat.
"T'ank heaven, we're 'most toh
der bridge," he ejaculated, taking a
survey of his surroundings, but
when the Printer made no answer he
peered into the latter's face and
asked:
"What's bitin' yer, Specks. Look
like y'd dropped yer candy!"
The Printer pointed to the Empty
Jug, r#lling about the bottom of
the Wagon, and turned his pockets
inside out in the vain hope that he
might find a crumb of tobacco.
"Hullv gee!" cried the Devil,
"Dat's orful?no terbacker?no segyars?no
w !"
There was a jolt and sudden jar,
and the Printer, glancing back hurriedly,
saw the Shrouded Forms rise
awesomely.
"Whoa!" he cried, and the Horse
stopped.
They were approaching the river,
and had just crossed one of the minor
bridges. On the river side there
"WAS A SHARP FALL
from the planks of the bridge to the
ground, and, although they were
going at a walk, that which they had
feared and so carefully guarded
against had come to pass.
One of the Forms was hopelessly
pied!
The Printer eould have shed tears
of sheer vexation, but he 'didn't.
He gritted his teeth, borrowed a
chew of tobacco from a passiug Native,
provided himself with another
Whip, and plied it so lustily that
the Horse actually broke into a Dog
Trot, which She-was encouraged to
keep until they reached the Herald
office, just at dark.
The Devil told the waiting and
anxiously expectant Boss of the accident,
but he only asked the question
:
"Did you get the paper printed?"
And when he was answered in the
affirmative he began to whistle a
Merry -Air, which so surprised the
Printer and the Devil that, to use
the latter's expressive language,
"dey nearly dropped in a faint," and
while in this state of bewilderment
they recklessly volunteered to "help
fold the papeis."
Assisted and directed by the Jubilant
Boss, and by dint of the
hardest kind of work, they succeeded
in mailing the whole edition
of Ine first number of the New
Herald, before the postoffice closed.
L-Envoi! ,
This practically ends "The Passing
of the Quarto Herald,"
although the continued trials and
tribulations that marked the first
few weeks' issuance of the new paper,
were of such an harrowing
character that description fails me.
Finally, however, order was
evolved out of chaos, and the office
began to run smoothly. People approved
of the change in the paper,
and so many new subscribers were
secured that the Boss felt much encouraged,
although he avers to this
day that when lie nought the i'routy
Press lie was most outrageously and
scandalously Goid Bricked!

It Is Better Than Soda
