How the Baby Cauie.
Bamberg has become accustomed to 1
surprises but she received one Sunday {
morning out of the usual order, and 1
which has caused a mystery that she is 1
still trying to solve. The surprise was '
the announcement of the finding of a (
week-old baby, and the mystery is " Whose 1
is it ? " and "Whence did it come ? "
It was three o'clock Sunday morning 1
that Mr. Calhoun was awakened by the (
night train from Charleston. It usually 1
slows up and enters the side track in *
front of his house, pulls on down to the *
station and allows the other train to pass. ?
A few minutes after it had done this he <
heard a cry of a baby. On looking through {
the blinds he saw a basket and a bottle of i
milk on the piazza. He dressed and went i
out but before bringing it in he called in '
some ladies and a gentleman. As he got 1
??j -- f
lo tii6 ranroau iu uiuss mc succii tut,
36Cond train was pulling by and he noticed *
a man leaning out of a window gazing at ?
the house. He hollered at the man and 1
from his reply and actions Mr. Calhoun *
thinks he knew something about it. 1
The baby was taken out of the basket 8
and was found to be dressed in short 8
clothes that were second-hand and had s
on a bonnet much too large. It was r
wrapped in a new cotton blanket andthere c
were a few old clothes in the basket and s
the following note: J
"Who ever will tine this Little Girl and 8
take care of the Saim will be rewarded. s
Perhaps in the near future you will be '
paid for fould. Treat it kindly and you ?
will be Blessed by Its Loving Mother." 1
After keeping the baby a few minutes ?
it was carried to Sheriff Hunter and put J
in the care of the county. Our sympa- *
thetic Supervisor E. C. Bruce will see that <
it is tenderly cared for until proper dispo- <
sition can be made of it. Investigation <
is also being carried on lookiug to establishing
its identity. ?

We have received an invitation to the

Monday, June 18th. There will also be

are always largely attended.

ber of both sexes were present, but little t
enthusiasm was expressed owing to the ,
slowness of the game. <
The home team took the inns with t
Osteen at the bat. A pop to short and a ]
fumble started the game. Bamberg, Hoff- (
man and Gyles soon followed, being t
punched by the pitcher. Before the visi- s
tors knew what was up, six men had J
waltzed in on errors and light hits. With
no men down, Wise fell before Murray's ,
puzzlers, Kinard buzzed and Dukes pops ,
shv to first. j
The visitors come'to the plate to lose j
the ball; instead, however, Gyles proved j
too many and, as a result, Hogue beat the ]
atmosphere, Sommers succeeds in getting ,
the first bag on an error, Cogburn fails to ,
connect and Wyraan makes three circles \
in vain at the sphere.
The second and third rounds added j
only goose eggs to both sides. With the ,
ending of the fourth, the visitors managed ]
to score their only runs. Wyman punched ,
the sphere high up in the air into the
right garden making the first bag on ,
Kinard's inexcusable error. Mitchell fol- j
lowed to first, while Wyman dusted the (
plate on a beautiful run. Mitchell came <
in before the last three in vain drove after i
Gyles' menancers. Zeroes were made by j
both up to the -end, except one by the ,
home team in the 6th. The game being
called on account of darkness at the end
of the seventh. ,
The feature of the game was the splen- ,
did work of Gyles and Murray, the two
pitchers. Ten lads fell before the former,
while the latter sent nine grovelling in
the dust. Giles yielded only one hit;
while Murray gave six.
Dukes' beautiful catch in the left garden
called forth the applause of the graud
stand.

The Annual Commencement Exercises
Held This Week.
The commencement exercises of the
Carlisle Fitting School opened on last
Sunday, May 31, with an excellent and
inspiring sermon by Dr. Mark L. Carlisle,
pastor of the Washington Street church,
Columbia, S. C. The reputation of this
prominent divine had preceded him and
he fully sustained his reputation by this
scholarly discourse. His text was one of
the beatitudes, Matthew v-8: "Blessed
are the pure in heart for they shall see
God." "A jewel of the New Testament,"
he began, "a flashiug diamond surrouuded
1? : muutriMQ?hnmilitv
u> preciwus siuu?. ^
?mercifulness. Along with them a
kuowledge of God is a blessed thing." He
discussed first the meaning of "see" explaining
that it had two interpretations,
one as to external objects as trees, houses,
etc., the other as to internal and appreciation.
Both are here meant. We shall
see God in a vision of futurity and now
by spiritual grasp. He showed that not
riches and honor but ability to see what
comes one's way showed one's real
fortune, comparing forcibly Emperor
Nero and the Apostle Paul. The former
had men to tremble at his royal power
and wealth but Paul saw the possibility
of a great spiritual empire. This power
to see makes genius that of the poet,
artist, master of literature. We refuse to
let in the light. We say there is no light
whenever Christ stands near us if we
[>uly could see him. He pointed out the
iuspiration and revelation iu the Bible
possible to those with faith and trust in
Sod. Would we choose the opinion of a
would be critic of it on that godly woman
who has found those things that lift her
jp until she looks into God's face because
>f trust ? Some people see and some do
lot.
He then pointed out with appropriate
md clearly refined illustrations the vari>us
sorts of knowledge. The highest
knowledge is of God?the ability to
mow God, to side with God. We have
irst intellectual knowledge?a broad
iweep of material things. The Browning
Dlub in Spartanburg or the Shakespeare
31ub in Columbia tend to become an
ntellectual process. If morality and
educational principles are gleaned from
Shakespeare or the like or in a causual
eadiug of the scriptures we may have an
ethical knowledge. But there is a higher
cnowledge than the merely intellectual
ind ethical. There is that which comes
tl,Q I/wo nnt nnlv of one's Self
UlUUgU CUV a\/?v J
)ut of others. "He that loveth ilot,knoweth
lot God, for God is love." The text says
i prime essential to this is purity. A telecope
is turned iu the right direction but
omething is wrong. What is the matter ?
The object glass is found blurred by a
:hild's candied fingers. So the slightest
tain of sin blurrs man's vision of God.
f sin is iu the heart man cannot appreciite
God?sin must be purged before the
oul can look up and see God. A second
equisite is an obedient spirit. Lady
Somerset became a messenger of purity
o multitudes. How far should obedience
jo, it is asked. As far as the light that
rou have. Be truthful and honest in
lusiness and live up to those qualities in
laily associations with men. Kowledge
>f higher things will then come. How
lo you learu to serve men ? By serving.
'Blessed are the pure in heart for they
.hall see God." God grant, the speaker
;oncluded, that every one may see the
ling of Beauty and realize we each have
i part in his work.
Dr. Carlisle addressed the Methodist
Sunday-school at 5 p. m. and at the evenlig
service preached to a second large
tnd appreciative congregation another
rery helpful, thoughtful and interesting
liscourse. *
LITERARY ADDRESS.
On Monday night the annual literary
iddress before the Kilgo and Sheridan
QC Slivered in the
lit*! Bl v 3UV1VL1V.nuM
veil-filled chapel of the Fitting School by
President Henry N. Snyder, of Wofford
College. His style of speaking may justly
>e termed magnetic, for he clearly dem)nstrated
his ability to keep the attention
>f his auditors centered upou his theme.
This he stated to be, after a few appropriite
remarks leading up to it,4Real Wealth.'
3e showed, utilizing about an hour and a
quarter, that in the last analysis the wealth
)f the world was not houses or real estate,
docks or bonds, investments or business
mterprises, but the power back of all this
?man himself. This led him to discuss
nan in his relation to early education aud
uoral trainiug. Men need to learn how
;o appreciate the value of knowledge, enighteument,
learning; they need to make
;hemselves ready for the opportunities in
ife awaiting them; they need to learn to
/alue themselves at their proper worth,
ind they need to look for those qualities
>r examples that they must reach out after,
must strive zealously for. Education,
tie insisted, was not to put a "shine" on
man, but to prepare him to take upon
himself a really larger share of the world's
work.
After the address a pleasant reception
ivaq held and social intercourse enjoyed
for a while. In the meantime, the board
af control and faculty tendered President
Snyder a reception in one of the literary
society halls, and kind courtesies were
there exchanged, proving encouraging to
all as to the relation in the future between
Wofford College and the Fitting School.
On the rostrum during the lectnre were
the following preachers of the South
Carolina Conference: Revs. Goodwyn,
Phillips, Pitts, Hook, Nettles, Dargan
and Browne. An unusually large number
of visitors have been noted as present
at this commencement.

traded School Closing
The graded school .closed its fourth
year's work ou Friday, May 2(Jth. On account
of the lack of accommodation there
were no public exercises. The report
books and promotion card9 were given
out and the school assembled for dismission.
Mrs. J. A. Murdaugh as is her yearly
custom gives a medal for scholarship and
a prize to every pupil in her room who is
not absent a day. This year there were
four such : Mary Nevils and Alfred Ray
received prizes forattendance and punctuality.
Pearl Black and EvaMcCue received
prizes for attendance. Corrie Sandifer
received the gold medal for scholarship.
Mrs. Murdaugh also presented Genie Cope
with a beautiful gold medal for progress
in music. Mr. Lawson kindly consented
to present these medals and prizes, which
he did in a happy, humorous speech.
Although he did not expect to make a
speech when he came, yet he spoke for
thirty minutes' and captivated the school.
Mr. C. R. Calhoun then reviewed the
year's work, spoke of its success, of the
unusual number to continue to the close,
of the small number who failed to pass
and of the good attendance for the year.
He then presented certificates to those
who had completed the ninth grade and
made a few remarks to them especially.
Those who received certificates are:
Charlie Black, Charlie Rentz, Louis
Pearlstine, Wallace Cauthen, Willie Cauthen,
Miss Edna Rice.
Bamberg Guards Inspected.
Pursuant to orders received some time
^ - * T"? - TT n A
ago U&pt. jLeo jr. r osier, u. o. .a.ruiiery
Corps, inspected the military company at
this place Tuesday afternoon. Capt. Foster
arrived here on the 5:10 o'clock train
and \va9 met by Capt. W. R. Wright in his
uniform as captain of an infantry company.
After a few minntes' rest at the Johnson
hotel, Capt. Foster and Assistant Inspector
General Patrick expected to proceed
with the inspection. A downpour of
rain, however, prevented, aud it was close
on to seven o'clock when the command
was called to attention. The ground was
90 wet that Capt. Wright wa9 forced to
give up the idea of having any held
movements. The company was in fine
shape, and it had been decided to give an
exhibition drill in connection with the
inspection. Instead, however, the company
was inspected in the armory.
At about 6:45 o'clock General Patrick
gave orders for Capt. Wright to prepare
bis command for inspection. At the command
"attention!" each man assumed the
"position of a soldier," and, to one who
had seen regular troops in line, it was remarkable
how well these men, unaccustomed
to the daily routine of garrison life,
? ?? ?' ? A II ftnoro
perioraleu iucu uuwcs. ah
turned out at the proper angle, heads were
erect, and no man glanced around to see
what the man next to him was doing.
The company having been prepared for
inspection, Capt. Foster, assisted by Gen.
Patrick, proceeded to inspect the arms
and other equipment. He inspected the
front rank and file closers, while General
Patrick took the rear rank. Beginning
with the right guide, upon whose military
appearance Capt. Foster commented, the
inspector passed down the long line, giving
each gun a critical inspection, correcting
minor mistakes, and giving general
instructions. General Patrick was well
pleased with the appearance of the rear
rank, and complimented the two last men
upon their superior military bearing and
excellent condition of their guns. Capt.
Foster had a keen eye and detected the
minutest error, so that the men in ranks
should be congratulated on their success.
Before being dismissed, the company
was put through various evolutions in the
manual of arms. These, while not executed
with the precision and faultless exactness
of a trained troop or company of
cadets, were well done, and reflect credit
upon the officers, who have for weeks
past been striving to bring the company
up to a condition second to none.
Capt. Foster was well pleased with his
inspection, and said that before their terra
of enlistment was over it would be one of
the best commands in the State. All, with
the exception of four, expressed their
willingness to enter the "armies of the
United States for a period not to exceed
seven months in duration in case of
emergency." This was very gratifying to
the inspectors, and they said that the men
would be given a brand new equipment
and betaken on the summer encampment.
There were forty-three men in line, not
including the officers: Capt. Wright, Lieutenants
Bronson and Price and Honorary
Lieutenant Copeland.
In a conversation with Capt. Foster he
said that the compauies throughout the
State were in fairly good condition, and
that he attributed this largely to the fact
that South Carolina had within her borders
so many military schools. Some of
these he said were only to be classed with
the greatest academies of the country.
He referred to the inspection of the S.
C. Military Academy by Capt. Arthur F.
Curtis last month, and said that that gentleman
had said that "for precision, military
bearing and steadiness he would
place one company against anything he
bad ever seen."
Capt. Foster left by yesterday morning's
train for Orangeburg, where he will
inspect the two military companies of

Ehrhardt, June 2.?The town election
passed off quietly. The following
were elected to serve for one year: 0.
Ehrhardt, intendant; J. C. Kiuard, J. A.
. Chassereau, I. D. Copeland, and Jacob
. Ehrhardt, wardens. It is doubtful if Mr.
Jacob Ehrhardt will serve, as he was not
' a caudidate and only received 14 votes,
which gave him just one majority.
Miraculous Escape front Death.
Last Friday, Clarence, the four-year-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Armstrong, had
a very narrow escape from death. He
} with some other children were playing
near the railroad on Railroad Avenue,
j and as the down local freight train passed
they all ran down near the track. Clarence
got too close, and was struck on the side
^ ofAt-ko r\f tKo q Q
UI U1S Utau UV LUC otcpo Ul LUC LLtvvvuv
r the train passed him. The accident was
witnessed by the train crew, aud the train
f was immediately stopped and some of the
crew carried the little fellow home.
Fortuuately the train was moving
e slowly, and this no doubt accounts for the
fact that he was not instantly killed. He
has a large bruised place on his head and
f one of his limbs was also hurt. However,
his injuries are not at all serious, and he
will soon be all right again.

Mr. Sberidau In Walterboro.
Mr. H. G. Sberidau, Head Master of tbe
Carlisle Fitting School, attended tbe sessions
of the Charleston District Conference,
which met in Walterboro receutl}*, I
in the interest of the school. We take the
following references to him from the Wal|
terboro Press aud Standard:
"Prof. H. G. Sheridan spoke for the
Carlisle Fitting School, and presented the
claims of his excellent school in a clear
aud forceful manner. He showed that the
work done in his school is of a high order
aud that the moral and religious influences
surrounding his students are of the best.

strongly endorsed tbis institution under
the care of the church, and paid a high
tribute to Prof. Sheridan and the efficient
work done by him. Prof. Sheridan is a
Colleton man, and is well known and
much loved by his mauy friends here.
He stands in the forefront as an educator
aud deserves the confidence reposed in
him by the church and the people. He has
quite a number of Colleton boys and girls
in his school."
Fitting School Matters.
The board of control of the Carlisle
Fitting School held a meeting last Monday,
at which the matter of a faculty for
another year was discussed. Head Master
H. G. Sheridan was recommended for the
same position, this place being filled by
the board of trustees of Wofford College.
The matter of filling the vacancies in the
faculty will be taken up at a meeting of
the board to be held here on Monday, the
18th instant.
Messrs. N. M. Salley and C. E. Boyd,
first and second assistant, respectively,
have resigned and will not be with the
school another year. Mr. Sallev will become
proprietor of the Cope House in
this city, and Mr. Boyd goes to White
Stone Lithia Springs, where he will be
connected with the hotel this summer.
The place of music teacher in the school
is also vacani.
