We are not wedded to any particular
plan for raising the money to erect a
graded school building. While we suggest
that of bonding the school district
and levying a tax on the whole district
for interest or retiring the bonds, still if
the proposition to devote the town's dispensary
profits (or a portion of theni) to
this purpose is thought best by our citizens,
we have no objection to it. In fact,
we are not captious as to ways and meant;
what we want is the building, and any
way we get it, so it is fair and equitable,
is satisfactory to us.
* *
This newspaper favors the spending of
$2,000 or more by city council in making
first-class hard highways of the roads
leading into the town of Bamberg. And
we go further than the action proposed
? . by the mass meeting: we favor making
this expenditure each year for several
years, until all the highways tributary to
this town are as hard as Main street. But
we want to see a decent graded school
building as well. Our plan to raise money
to erect this building is for the school
;.f. - district to issue bonds for $10,000 and
then levy a special tax on the entire
school district for the purpose of paying
the interest and gradually retiring the
bonds. The school has now outgrown
; - . the present building, and something must
' - be done and that at once. "We can spend
$2,000 on the public roads and build a
> school house as well, and why not go
ahead and do it ? Some of our citizens
1 seem fearful that discussion of the school
m building project just at this time will retard
the good roads movement. Their
I ears are noi weix-iounueu, in uur upimuu.
Good roads and good schools go hand in
: - hand,"each being to a greater or less extent
mutually interdependent one upon
the other. The road matter has already
assumed definite shape. We hope to see
some of our patriotic citizens take hold
of the school building project in earnest
in the next few days, for something
should be done before the legislature
meets.

word of advice to him from a friend:
r - Don't mar and disfigure your letters by
using the sacreligious language of a socalled
old woman. It is a great pitv and
a shame that the "Prince of Life and
Lord of Glory" should be spoken of in
that way. Those who make no profession
of religion said they were surprised that
Mr. R. W. I). Rowell allowed such "tough
stuff" to go into his paper.
Our town council has had a great deal
of good work done on the streets of Denmark,
for which they deserve commendation.
Capt. J. B. Guess, chairman of the
committee on streets, has taken decided
* interest in this good work. Recently the
street force has been decreased, and the
plan is to bore a fine artesian well. We
will take off our hat to the "city fathers"
whenever that is accomplished. Go ahead,

thusiasni of the bi>t kind, ami a large!'
amount of it. is being felt by the whole !
student body. The boys having been tie- 1
prived of foot ball this season, are preparing
to enjoy and appreciate the com- '
intr base ball season to the utmost. One
day last week athletics were discussed 1
in chapel by students and members of '
the faculty. The deep interest being .
taken by the faculty is most encouraging :
to the boys. The Association has been
reorganized and placed on a much tinner
basis than it has been heretofore. It in- :
eludes t he gymnasium team, tennis clubs,
foot ball and base ball teams. Captain

])r. Edwin A. Alderman, President of (
Tulane University, delighted a large audi- 1
ence at the Converse Auditorium last
Tuesday evening. His subject being "The
Southern Boy and his Opportunities,"
was naturally one very closely associated
with every Wofford student. The lecturer 1
began by paying a very beautiful tribute !
to Dr. .las. H. Carlisle, whose reputation, 1
he said, as a christian gentleman and educator,
has extended all through the South. 1
He dwelt ou the difference between the
"old" and the "new" South. The advantages
of the Southern boy of to-day over
that one of the "sixties." The lecturer lielighted
his whole audience, and many are
the praises being sung in honor of the
lyceum course.
Prof. Gamewell told the students, in his
' jolly good way, that no other lecturer
would be here until they had eaten their
Christmas turkey.
The mention of Christmas turkey serves
to remind us that the holidays are less
than one month off. Of course the boys
. arc feeling happy over this, but there is
something else not near so pleasant, we
are also reminded of those "exams."
1 College breaks up for the holidays on the
twentieth and continues until through the
thirtv-tirst.
The date of the Glee Club's entertainment,
a moot court, lias been fixed for
I December (ith.
[ To-uiglit will be the occasion of one of

: events during the entire college year.
' The senior class of Converse will give a
! reception for the juniors of that college.
Many Wofford boys have received "bids,"
and of course wili be on hand to take
' part in this very pleasant reception.

Dr. Smart, a former South Carolinian,
having lived in Barnwell county, and a
graduate of Wofford, preached at Central
Methodist church yesterday morning. He
based his sermon on the duty of the parent
to the child and the way a child should
be taught, first at home, then in the Sunday-school,
and third, in the day schools.
Dr. Smart has been pastor of all the largest
congregations in Southern Methodism.
He stopped in Spartanburg on his way
home from St. Louis, having resigned his
charge there to accept a call at Norfolk,
Va. This church at Norfolk is said to have
the largest congregation of any Methodist
church in the South, it having been
served for several years by Dr. A. Coke

conference made Dr. Smith a Bishop.

Woman Suffrage.
The Fairfax Enterprise, edited by Mrs. 1
Virginia I). Young, in commenting' on a 1
little paragraph in this paper as to a
woman being arrested out West for too
' much voting, has the following, which
she requests that we copy, and we do so 1
. with pleasure:
"We thank our good brother Knight
for calling our attention to the paragraph
reporting a woman's arrest for casting
her ballot three times. Her excuse w as
that she 'wanted to make money.'
"The paragraph referred to, purporting
to come from a Denver paper, (where
women have had fuli suffrage since 180:5)
expressly says 'it is the first time in the
history of Colorado that a woman has
been arrested 011 the charge of repeating!'
"Now isn't this extraordinary? 1
"Women are mothers and sisters of ;
men. they share the common human <
nature. A good man is just as good as a
good woman, and vine versa:?and yet
for nine years women have had all the
temptations of their brother men out in
Colorado to do some fraudulent voting, j
and only one jvoor creature, probably in
dire waiit of a new wrap in that bitter
cold climate, has stooped to repeat her
vote for money. This certainly is a
splendid showing for the women of Colorado!?in
contrast with our men voters
here in South Carolina.
4Tn the late election you recollect what
frauds were perpetrated in Charleston 1
and Columbia? Hundreds of men (the !
News and Courier and the State declared) 1
voted three and four times, and it was '
positively asserted that a certain candi- 1
date used a barrel full of silver pieces
' bnying votes!!!
' So this solitary instance of a woman's ,
lapse from rectitude really should operate
on the minds of our legislators when 1
the}7 assemble nej t January to put up an
amendment to the State constitution !
giving to us women a chan.ee to help the
politics of the State by honest voting." 1

It will lie good news to tlx* mothers of
small children to learn that croup can he *
prevented. The first sign nt croup is i
hoarseness. A day or two before the attack
the child becomes hoarse. This is i
soon followed by a peculiar rough cough.
Give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy freely i
as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or
even after the rough cough appears, and 1
it will dispel all symptoms of croup. In
this way all danger and anxiety may be
avoided. This remedy is used by many 1
thousands of mothers and has never been 1
kjiojvn to fail. It is, in fact, the only 1
remedy I h$t can always be depended upon ?

Called to Give up Gospel.
Richmond, Va., Nov. 19.?There was a
touching scene in the Methodist Virginia
conference here to-day when Rev. R. C.
Garland, minister of six years' standing,
was given a location or retired from the
ministry. He is still a minister, but he
has no charge and no way of getting one.
There are no charges against the minister
and all agreed that he was a true Christian
and a charitable man.
When his name was called the presiding
elder of the Lynchburg district, Dr.
Paul Whitehead, arose and raised the
question of the efficiency of the Minister.
There was no blot upon his character,
but he did not think he was adapted to
the ministry of the gospel.
After many had been heard pro and con
Mr. Garland himself told his story, which
was that he had been felt called of God
to preach. By working at the Tredgar
iron works he made money to send liim-j
self to school. At that timp ho did not
know his A. B. C. 's. After going to college
for a year he had entered the Virginia
conference. He had been successful
and in one year lie had converted one
hundred ami tPR souls. He could not ask
for a location. A vote wag taken and he
was retired by a vote of 09 to 91.

Walterroro, Nov. 24.?Thursday
night at the Episcopal church two of
Walterboro's most popular young people
were married. The groom was Mr. II. N.
Stokes, one of the most successful business
men, and the bride was Miss Bessie
B. Fishburne, one of the most loved and
successful teachers in the graded school.
The church was most beautifully decoracd
with chrysanthemums and evergreens,
and presented a scene of loveliness as the
happy pair stood beneath the overhanging
garlands and took the vow that made
them man and wife.
The attendants were Mr. L. M. Stokes
with Miss Ida May Fishburne, and Mr.
M. C. Fishburne with Miss Edna Stokes.
Rev. W. C. Kirkland performed the ceremony
in an impressive manner before a
large audience.
After the ceremony the home of Mr. L.
N. Fishburne, father of the bride, was
thrown open, and was soon crowded with
friends and relatives of the bride and
groom who enjoyed the delightful reception
tendered them. Cake and cocoa
were served. The bride and groom received

A Tennessee paper says in one of the

passed a law adding two months to the
year, and the worst of it is that they have
made them both winter months." "Blast

PICTURESQUE BRITTANY.
A Market Scene In This Quaint
French Province.
Brittany Is a land where the peasants
till the earth In zouave trousers, toreador
Jackets covered with arabesque D'
embroideries and green waistcoats
around which run lines of crimson.
The women wear short rod skirts,
great medici collars and coifs that flut
ter about tbelr heads niie tue wings 01
doves. From beneath the points of p
their black caps the children gaze at I
you with wide eyes full of the curiosity
of animals.
These people live in houses built of
sculptured granite and sleep in openwork
closets carved like the mouchara- ?
bieks of Egypt.
In spite of the "Breton Interiors" and
"Returns of the Fishermen" with "~
which painters swamp the market this
race is still unknown or misunderstood,
for they should be seen not in
paintings, but in their homes, in their
old time streets, on market days and
when, in fair time, the tents are pitched
in the village market places.
Fiery little horses draw to market ?
fish, fine vegetables and all the early
produce of Roscoff. They are spread
out upon the sidewalk. Chickens
cackle; goats bleat; pigs, tied by the ^
leg, strain toward the vegetables, sniff, j
ing at the fresh greens'.
farmers in sabots, carrying great
blue umbrellas under their arms, with
the two ribbons of their felt hats floating
down their backs, pick their way at
among the Dlnan china displayed on g<
the ground?capacious soup tureens, A
cider Jugs and plates covered with ~~
painted flowers and grotesque figures.
The peasants converse with but few
gestures; they bargain in gutteral
tones.
These taciturn people forget themselves
in the barrooms on fair days.
The taverns are full of noise. You ?.
may hear the sound of an accordion lu
and the plaintive note of the biniou (a II
sort of bagpipe), leading monotonous
dances.
Into the harbor come boats laden
with fish; other boats go out The H
fishermen are full of business. Next A
week will occur the departure for the al
new country. There are women who r
weep.
Above all this agitation the smoke of
the village chimneys mingles with the
great white clouds. The quiet sea mirrors
the sun.?Artist Castaigne in Cen
tury.

LITERARY TREASURES. J
Some Which Hare Been, and Some ?
Which May Be Lent to View. f
The world, we have been assured fj
time and again, knows nothing of Its
greatest men. Perhaps It Is equally ignorant
about Its greatest books. Are
we quite sure that the Idols In our lit- .
erary pantheon are arrayed in their
due order of precedence? The rules of
precedence change, and who shall asBert
that those prevalent at any given Jc
time are the final ones? But, above
all, are we quite certain that there may
not be a notable work of genius lying J]
unnoticed and unknown amid the
wrecks of the river of time, waiting
only for some lucky accident that shall
reveal It in all Its beauty to an aston- ar
ished world?
Such accidents with such results have
been frequent In the history of the
past Indeed such accidents have preserved
or have revealed to the world
no Insignificant proportion of its now Bi
acknowledged masterpieces.
The books of the Bible themselves
have experienced the narrowest es- 1
capes from what might have resulted 0
In their total loss. The most notable
example Is that of Deuteronomy, which ?
disappeared from the Jewish world for
over a century. The story of Its re- I
discovery by the high priest Ilezekiah fl

Shakespeare was practically forgot- I,

his "Account of the Greatest English I
Poets," with never a mention of the ?
name of the very greatest, yet It was g
shortly afterward that Shakespeare I
was resuscitated. B
Fitzgerald's "Omar Khayyam" and BBlack

Patience With Eccentricity.
Many of the leading people in English
society regarded Thomas Carlyle
with a feeling almost akin to reverent
iellght when he chose to behave like
an ignorant boor in their drawing
:ooms, even taking his seat, it is said,
jnbidden in the presence of the queen,
rhis generation, however, has little paiigpee
with such eccentricities.
It was an English bishop who, when
:he historian Freeman had worn out
ills patience with his rudeness, introluced
him to a waiting audience as
the distinguished scholar that so gdrnirably
describes and illustrates the
savagery of our ancestors."
