*iiyp?s of the Press Association.
BB^^Jjresident Elbert H. Aull, of the State
l^^pWress Association, has sent as the minutes
of that body from 1877 to 1888, compiled
from the fiies of the News and Courier.
We have derived much pleasure from
BRk . reading them. We find that in those days
most of the meetings were held in Charleston
and that F. W. Dawson and J. C.
Hemphill were prominent figures. The
people of Charleston royally entertained
the newspaper men at those times. EditIB
or Dawson was especially hospitable and
^^^B^Lgracious to his brethren, and it is not to
wondered at that he bad so many
friends among the fraternity.
BHr We find several names prominent in
H the organization then who seem to have
H.- dropped oat now, although they are still
EBB in the newspaper business. Some have
gone into other lines of work, and others
E^^^gave joined the silent majority. The
|me of N. G. Gonzales appears for tne
time in 1887, we believe, he reporting
meetings for the News and Courier.
^H^^RBoth he and his chief have been laid low
^flr by tfc? assassin's bullet. There are the
|K names of Hoyt, Holmes, Osteen, Crews,
Wilson, and other veterans who are still
harness, although some of them do not
^BH^fetepd the Association meetings in these
BBHHBr days.
^^m^HAuvere much pleased with the annual
of Bro. J. W? Holmes, of the
B^BKfl^^veli People, which was made at one
^CBBEp^these meetings and published in the
^K^^miautes. It is an eloquent and scholarly
^B^^sroduction, and we regret that he seems
^BBHH&have lost interest in the Association.
^^^BJ^krarusal of the proceedings of these
^IBBflHBgs has been of much pleasure to uf,
trust of profit as well, and the
^B^BBRger editors of the State will no doubt
^^H^Bippreciate them fully as much as we do.
WF Home Training.
We wonder if many parents ever think
training their children in a proper
kn&nner because of the thought that ine
HH^^^^hjj&will have an influence over others
I Remains for them to say whether
HflHSHRnnfluence shall be good or bad. RealI
r ly, it is a serious thing when yon realize
that possibly somebody else's boy or girl
^H^Bnay turn out badly on account of the inwielded
by your child?and you
I^^HB^^^Rsponaible for what sort of influence
You should train your children
for the sake of others as well as
^^^B^^urselves.
H Some parents are very careful what
daas of children their offsprings associate
with. Pity that not more of them were
|B^^a8 particular abont what kind of children
furnished for associates. Unfoitun^^^^H^Bytseems
to be true that too many
B^^^^fl^Kts^&concerned about social stand(^^^B^and
clothes, when they should lay
on character and brains. Many a
wears good clothes and has plenty of
B|B^Knoney to spend (given him freely by
wealthy parents) who morally is not fit
a decent negro to associate with. Yet
too often this sort of yonng man is the
idol of society, and is welcomed into all
HHB homes inhere his very presence is enough
ABBF to contahjiraate the purity^ there. The
^H^^Bfeaghtere of the family are allowed to
^^^HHHflMEjKpcort on any occasion, and the
society. Parents are to
BBBSBHBrere in both instances: one for
H^HH^HPVraining their boy properly, the other
^HHKor allowing his association.
"Johnnie plays with snch bad boys at
f/r the graded school that be is really getting
^ unmanageable," says a fond mother. Ah,
B> the trouble is not so mnch with the boys
Hft Johnnie plays with at school, bat in the
home training. The boy has not been
properly controlled by mother and father,
deep down in the mother's heart she
H^BJhnbws it too. Bat she attempts to ease
^^H^her conscience by putting the blame on
the "bad boys" at school. The chances
53B are that other parents are complaining
W^M about the bad influence Johnnie has exertH
- ed over their boys. Parents can not ex
pect their children to behave at school
K^Kr~ unless the foundations of courtesy, obediHBefice
and all that goes to make for charare
laid at home.

JUDGE ATTACKS LAW. s
a
Georgia Judge Declares his Opposi- J
tlon to Educating Negroes.
Judge William T. Gary, of the Richmond
county superior court, created quite
a sensation this morning in charging the q
grand jury by eloquently attacking the t
State law that allows a negro to be a bene- t
ficiary of the school tax money paid to r
the counties and State by white citizens.
Judge Gary declared that he doubted c
the wisdom of these laws. He doubted if t
they were justice to the white people, c
He declared that as the law7 is now the fc
negro is being fitted for stations in life t
to which he cannot aspire with any hope 0
of filling and never can while the white t
race is supreme in the South. On c
the other hand, he is being unfitted 0
for the walks of life that are open to him 0
as laborer, servaut, and field-hand. Judge
Gary declared the negro is being made f.
dissatisfied, discontented and at war with h
life. 1,
Judge Gary declared that in hisknowl- a
edge Confederate veterans who are hard- j(
ly able to care for their own children and
home are forced to see a part of the mite a
of taxes they pay to the State go to the
education of the negro. As a remedy for
the evil, Judge Gary suggested the creation
of a public sentiment that would lead
to the repeal of the present law. Judge a
Gary declared that the time is ripe for
the asritation which will lead to such a r
sentiment in the South. Morality, his
honor declared, did not come from education,
neither could it be legislated into
the human heart. The church and the ??(
home was the place where it could be
successfully taught.

insuccessful attempt was made to rob the
Sauk of. McColl. Late iu the night three
uasked men went to the telephone ex:hange
and were admitted to the office

vas opened they seized the operator,
?ugeue Hood, a young boy, tied him and
carried him with them to the bank. The

What He Knew About Texas.
A Texan while visiting in another
State was asked to tell in a speech what
le knew about Texas, and he responded:
"Texas is a whopper. She's a peach.
She's the widest and the broadest and
he longest country on earth, exending
from East to West and also
rom North to South. She could put
^hode Island in her vest pocket. She

Bill for au emperor. She's the chiefest

vild and reckless. She's the pebble on
be beach. She's one of the old blue hen's
:hickens. She's the cock of the walk and
he Democrat of the world. She's the
volf and it is her day to howl.
"Texas is bounded on the ast Eby the

on the North by the tomahawk and

Crnrobs From Kansas.
When a woman spends a particularly
longtime on her knees in saying her
prayers at night her husband may know
he has behaved worse than usual that j
day.
We suppose there are women in heaven j
who have been there 500 years, who are
still wondering why their husbands don't
come, half suspecting that some women
are detaining them.
Church White relates that in the early
days of Whiting, preparations were being
made for a wedding. A man went into
the store to buy a present. "It will be
quite an affair, I suppose," the store-keeper
said. "Not much," the customer replied,
with a sneer; "only two kegs."

INSOLENT PULLMAN PORTER.
Passengers Put Ilim Ofl' a Train in
Georgia.
A special from Brunswick, Ga., Thursday,
October 22, says:
Because of his insolence to a lady from
Spartanburg, S. C., a negro Pullman car
porter was put off train No. 14 of the
Southern railway in the woods yesterday.
He was left there to meditate how much
better it is for a negro to be polite even
if he is in the uniform of the Pullmans.
The negro spoke to the lady somethiug
about trausfeniug to another train. She
am not understand mm auu asueo mm 10
repeat what he had said. He did it very
insolently.
George H. Smith, treasurer of the city
of Brunswick, was on the train, and, observing
the manner in which the negro
spoke to the lady, gave him a thrashing.
The porter appealed to Conductor Tengale,
but got little sympathy. As soon
as the conductor heard how the negro
had acted he stopped the train and hustled
the insolent darkey off. He would not
let him stop to even change his uniform.
The negro who was taught a lesson in
manners is from Milwaukee.

WEAK LUNGS

11 Gentlemen?My lung trouble is two years old. I had
about eight or ten hemorrhages, which broke me down in
weight and strength. The last, in February, was the
worst of all, so thatl honestly believed I could not live to
aee another summer. When I commenced to take Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey my weight was 117 pounds; today I
weigh 129 pounds, and have made good improvement in
every respect. I feel stronger from day to day and have
had no hemorrhage since I commenced to use Duffy's.'"
