J EHRHARDT ETCHINGS.
t Closing Picnic of Ehrhardt High
School?Other News Items.
Eiikijakdt, May 30.?After careful consideration
and investigation of the subject,
the principals of the Ehrhardt High
school have deemed it advisable to change
the regular order of the program heretofore,
the change being an essential element
of growth and prosperity, and instead
of recitations and dialogues ^rom
j the students, to occupy the time required
for drilling the children for same, with
their recitations, and to substitute a picmV
nt thp r>in?p of their scholastic year.
We, citizens of the prosperous little town
of Ehrhardt, should indeed compliment
ourselves upon the fact that we secured
such able and competent teachers during
the past session to instruct our chiftlren
and lead them forth the pleasant elevating,
and abiding paths of intellectual
ability. Our school has indeed proven a
success under their management and it
does not seem absurd in the least nor unreasonable
when we state that there is no
doubt but that success will crown her
doors with laurels in the near future if
we only retain deep interest in our beloved
school. For it is indeed in the
early training of the minds and hearts of
our children that the very basis and
foundation of their character is formed.
Time and tide move rapidly onward, and
as man's physical existence is limited,
the irrepressible fact that the children of <
to-da}' shall be the men and women of i
tomorrow more strongly and emphatically
impresses the solemn obligations upon i
us that it is our duty to see that our <
children receive the best moral and <
intellectual training that we can possibly
attribute to their physical nature. Then ]
why not manifest strong and abiding i
interest in our public schools, high schools I
and colleges. As space and time are ]
limited we must hasten 011, and now to re- !
turn to the picuic, which will be held on i
the thirtieth day of May in Mr. C. Ehr- i
hardt's grove at Ehrhardt. Toaidiuthe ]
entertainment of our patrons and many 1
friends, Prof. C. F. Wertz, who is always i
endeavoring to see that others have a 1
good time, has secured the consent of and i
promise of Revs. S. P. Chisolui and E. M. t
McKissick to make addresses on this occa- t
sion. To this picnic we extend a cordial t
invitation to our many friends and request i
only that they bring well filled baskets t
and conduct themselves in a manner that t
will bring credit to our little town. 1

I see your report of the finanoes of the
Bamberg cotton oil mill is in good shape,
declaring a handsome dividend. Always
feeling an interest in our county and her
people, perhaps it would not be out of
order to make a suggestion to the officials
of the tpill. Before goipg furtjier it
would be well tq see what this oil is used
for. The amount of cotton seed oil
crushed annually now exceeds 1,000,000
tons, and the production of crude cotton
seed oil amounts to over 40,000,000 gallons,
valued at more than $12,000,000. Of thjs
production, ahput 0,000,000 gallons goes
into the manufacture of compound lard,
a still larger amount is exported as cotton
seed oil. and the remainder Is used in the
admixture wjtji drying oils and for soap
stock. The oil cake is largely exported to
England where it is used as food for
cattle, and the oil to France, Italy, and
other olive growing countries of Europe,
whence most of it returns to us mixed
with olive or sweet oil. The exportation
of cotton seed oil for 1*90 ampu^ted to
13 3.84.3h5 callous valued at $5,291,178:
" ?? c for
181>1 to 11,003,100 gallons, valued at
1 $3,975,305; for 1809 to 13,850,978 gallons,
' valued at $4,082,985. This oil is obtained
by expression from the seeds previously
> deprived of their shells. In this state
" fhey yield two gallons of oil to tue bushel.
I Now, with a small cost the mill officials
* could annex and manufacture their own
' soap out of this oil, thereby supplying the
* home deqiand for this article, all of whjpb
pQilld by run by the same machirery.
i More could be said, but for fair I may be
? trespassing, I will give this as a pointer.
One thing more I will call your atten>
tion to. On the eve of the S. C. Medical
? Association, which convened ip Florence,
'f the 17th of April, 1 being a member of
that association, i was very anxious to
II bring about a bearing to have their next
e annual meeting convene in Bamberg.
* Knowing it was a big undertaking for
j 0
I j Bamberg and her people, but realizing
| that Bamberg never does things by halves,
II I decided to consult Mayor Iuglis pn the
s subject. He promised his hearty eo\
operation at next meeting of council,

e! and am instructed to say that while if
7. this matter had been brought to their at1

going out of office. With assurances of
my personal regret, I am yours truly,

I am unable to see what ill effect this
could have had on council.
We have had some refreshing showers
lately, which will now bring up the cotton
that the farmers had to plant over. The
farmers are having it pretty hard and I

next fall. The merchant has not only the
farmer to furnish but their horses to feed.
We await results.

Bartow Warren on Trial.
Oraxgerukg, May 13.?'The trial of
Bartow Warren, of Branchville, for the
robbery of the express ear on the South
ern Road, at Fifty-Eight, on the night of
December 1, began here this morning,
and at the adjournment of court the
testimony for the State hail not been concluded.
The case so far made is practically
that made at the preliminary hearing
eighteen months ago. W. M. Connor
and Thomas Watson were the star witnesses,
though their testimony has been
published before in full, and its elTect
upon the jury today could hardly be estimated.
These two young men, fellow
townsmen of Warren, testified that in
November, before the robbery, he made
offers to them separately to join him in
the scheme, and had outlined his plans.
Watson said he promised to consider the
matter and have another meeting, but
shortly after got work at Ridgeville and
.lid not see Warren again. He said that
when he heard of the robbery he told the
people of Ridgeville he thought he could
name the man that did it. Connor said
that Warren came to him tirst, told him
tie was looking for a partner in a dangerous
enterprise, and from what he had
seen of him would rather have him join
it than any one else. He said that Warren's
proposition,jfirst, was to go down
;o Charleston some night, ostensibly to
ittend the theatre, obtain disguises and
bicycles, ride out to the Seven-mile crossng
after dark, and board the Savannah
;rain, hold it up, and rob the express car,
ind ride back into town. He proposed
;hat the}' carry a sledge hammer, so that
f refused admittance to the express car
hey could break into the door. After
jetting the money they could return to
3ranchville without ever being suspected.
Connor says he told Warren that he did
tot have nerve enough to join him, and
hat he had better see Thomas Watson,
vho was out of work and was a good man
or the job.
Important testimony was given by Mr.
lames Hogan, of the Charleston detective
Qfee, who arrested Warren in Charleson.
It had been shown by the express
it Langley that a .package had been
hipped to Charleston by him on the afernoou
of the robbery containing a $00
fold piece and seven $10 gold pieces, and
bese were in one of the packages stolen
)y the robber. Mr. Hogan said that when
10 arrested and searched Warren he
'ound in one of his pockets a $*20 gold

'orehead and rather pleasant features,
suggesting, perhaps, the amateur, but not
he hardened highwayman,
The express messengers, s. W. Khoadcs
tnd H. M. Sanders, gave the details of the
obbery. Just after the signal blew for
Fifty-eight station Mr. Bhuados openc d
the door between the mail car and the
baggage car, in response to a knock, and
i man in a long overcoat, wearing a bald
wig and false beard, presented two pistols
and ordered them to throw up their
hands. He mtuW Sanders open his safe
Hud put the money, about in a
nauvas sack, backed to the door, pulled
the bell cord, and told the messengers if
they followed him he would shoot. The
money wastaktm from the Augusta safe,
^ud the Columbia safe, which contained
a larger sum, was not molested. The |
robber worked quickly and positively, j
and said he hadn't long to stay. Captain
Black, who was the conductor in c harge
of the train, said when the train stopped
he got off to see what was up. He saw a
man fame from between the baggage and
express ours, and jump in the water on
the side of the road. He felt satisfied, he
laid, that it wasn't an ordinary tramp, I
aud as he was in the light, and the man
in the dark, he thought it uuwise to investigate
further, and gave the signal to j
go ahead. Just after the train started
he was notified of the yobbery by the j
messengers, but nothing could be done.
Mr. Murrell, the tlagnian 01 the train, got
off on the side opposite Conductor Black
and saw the figure of a man under the
car, thought it was a tramp, and when he
saw hint disappear told the conductor to
go ahead. Some time later, while boarding
the express car, he found on the top
step a large sledge hammer. Mr- -T. Betts
Simmons, of the Lazarus hardware store,
|n Charleston, identified the hammer as
one he had sold a few days before to a
man that resembled the defendant, though
he could not swear positively that Warren
was the man. Mrs. Holle, of 38G
King street, Charleston, identified Warren
as a man to whom she ?v.hl aw'ig and
ffllse hettrd sometime during the lathr
part of November, She said that ^s
Warren left her establishment he said he
would probably be hack In a few days to
get outfits for two more men and, perhaps,
a woman Miss Susie Rosis, clerk
for Mrs. Ilolle, also said that Warren was
the man to whom the outfit was sold,
ftps furnishes same- corroboration of the
story of Connor and Watson. When
Warren was arrested in Charleston he
was in eiuupuny with woman. Warren
|s well represented by the Hon. .Tames F.

Mr. Charles T. Yerkes, the American |
millionaire and street railway king, received
tlie following letter: fi
"Dear Mr. Yerkes: I have seen by the I*
papers how rich you arc, and also I have (l
also seen your picture, which looks kind, jr
So I thought I would tell you that my pa- (j;
rents are poor and depriving themselves |c
of many comforts in order to give me a jj
good education. Among my school k
friends there is a gymnastic club, of which 11
I am a member, and all the girls wear }|
silk skirts, and it irives me the horrors to
feel I can't have one when I hear the (i
fascinating rustle of their petticoats. |
Would you send me $ "> to buy one?" ?
Mr. Verkes received the unique epistle ^
from his secretary and, to the hitter's jv
astonishment, exclaimed: "Send her the [*
money. It will give more pleasure than (l
if invested in any other way." >r
The money was sent, and the aeknowl- ^
edgement was as follows: "Dear Mr.
Verkes: Thanks so much for the money, t
I invested "it. and can now rustle with ?
the others." ?
