Thursday, March 19,1914. a

Dr. T. J. Strait, who has been ap- c
pointed superintendent of the State j
hospital for the Insane, was a mem- t
ber of the legislative committee j
which recently investigated that in- c
stitution. The report of the com- e
mittee was unanimous, and as he
signed the report we do not see how
he can consistently accept the posi*
- tion of superintendent.

At last the efforts of Bamberg peo- P
pie to obtain another railroad are at
ry
an end, for the rails will be laid in- ?
f]
to town in the next few weeks. It
has taken a long time and a lot of
hard work on the part of a few people,
and they are to be congratulat- j
ed. A small bodv of men have been ,
h
working on the railroad matter for
years, but Messrs. Thos. Black and
W. D. Rhoad have certainly done ^
valiant service since last movement
was launched, and to them
much credit is due for the fact that
the road is about completed
. V
si
. t We should have no State campaign
this year. Each candidate ?
should be allowed to make his cam- ^
paign in his own way. That's the
way they do in other States, and we
cannot see where the Democratic
Ci
party has any right to appoint cam- .
paign meetings in every county in ^
the State and expect the candidates
to attend. The expense of running
for office in South Carolina is getting ^
beyond the means of anybody ex
cept a wealthy man, and surely there .
be few who will say that the campaign
speeches are instructing the ^
people

AX ELEPHANT HUNT. *
c<
Huge Beast Escapes From Show Near g
narisvine. n
f(
Hartsville, March 11.?A large a
elephant, which escaped from a circus
train said to have been wrecked jc
to-day on the Seaboard, near Patrick, p]
was killed tc-night in the Hall's Mill ^
neighborhood, six miles out, by a jj
large party of men, which had fol- p
lowed it for some time. It is said to S(
have been a very large elephant by
those present at the killing. It was
shot into repeatedly and chopped into
with axes and finally weakened y(
and killed. It caused quite a stir
in the sparsely settled portion of
Chesterfield and Darlington counties d
through which it travelled.
lc
Many wild reports were circulated j
in Hartsville to-night about damage
it had done. The military company ^
was asked for, and while it did not ^
go, of course, many men went from .
e lc
here and some were at the killing. ^
It is, of course, a great pity that it d
was not watched and followed until a
keeper could arrive on the scene, for ^
from all reports it does not appear to ?
cl
have attempted any violence to the
party in pursuit, but since it was
most unusual game for this part of
the country the people can hardly be t
blamed for making away with it in c
their excitement. f

P
Lumpkin, Oa., March 16.?Coler
man Flannigan, a nesrro, about sixty
e
vears of age. committed suicide in
e
the jail here Saturday night by placing
his head between the foot and
springs of his cot and turning a
somersault, breaking his neck. He
had been placed in jail because of a i
previous attempt to kill himself. I

Wellesley, Mas.. March 17.? ^
ci
^rfect discipline, coolness and brav- 0
ry on the part of the students and c
acultv members, prevented loss of ti
?
ife or injury, when College hall, the g
ldest of the Wellesley college j.
uildings, was burned to-day. \
The hundred and fifty young wo- e
tien students, fifty instructors and ?
t<
ifty maids, were in bed when the
ire was discovered. Every one was n
aved, and not one of the scores who n
r
uarched in an orderly procession ^
hrough smokefilled hallways, suf- s
ered so much as a scratch. n
The building was left a blackened s
hell. Within its crumbled walls was
wreckage representing a loss of
1900,000. Of this amount $100,000 s
i*as the estimated value of personal t.
>roperty of the inmates, nearly all ^
s<
)f whom escaped in scanty attire.
nsurance will amount to about j<
1600,000. 1:
Miss Ellen Fitz Pendleton, presi- n
[ent of the institution, said another
tructure would be erected in the p
iear future. , s
On account of the fire, the entire 0
x
ollege was ordered closed until j.
^.pril 7, the end of Easter recess. n
searly 1,000 of the 1,300 young wo- n
nen had left for their homes to- 7
tight.
President Pendleton took occasion j.
o praise the conduct of the students s;
,s "extraordinary." . o
"Never before," she sai?, "has a
here been such a fire, with similar e
onditions without loss of life or in- tl
ury to someone. The obedience to (
he fire drill was a credit to the col- ^
n
ege. There were no screams or
ries heard and this in itself show- r,
d perfect and marvellous control." q

"All of my reading life," says Dr. J *
laldwin, "I have regarded the boa bi
onstrictor with horror and aversion, w
had severely criticised his habit of 1
anging in loops from the jungle fc
rees and of hauling up the unwary n<
asserby from beneath, says Collier's cl
Weekly. When I got into the jungle
cc
ly great desire was to meet up with Q.
large boa under favorable condi- j
ons to show my -detestation for him. w
fhen I did find one, what was my
nrprise to find my sentiments those ?
f pity for the. snake. He was i
tretched across the path, and when
le natives saw him they pounced on
im with yells of delight. That
ia^e had no more to say about prosedings
than the Republican party
1 Mississippi. He seemed dazed
om the start. With a native for
rery yard of him grabbing him
ghtly he proceeded on legs through
le jungle and down to the beach on
le run, wigging feebly and hissing
i a hopeless manner. There his
ead was cut off with no more ceretony
than is observed with a chick1

The Xew Farmer. <
There was a time, not so many ?
gars ago, when the farmer was made
le subject of humorous remarks
rid his occupation was spoken of in
erisive terms. It requires no specil
feat of memory to hark back to
le days when the average farmer's
lie aim was to accumulate enough,
y sacrifice;: or other means, to send
ie< cftn +/-> ,;r>hnr?l in nrrior that thp

itter might never be compelled to
irm. But all that was before the
ay of labor-saving farm machinery
nd modern household conveniences:
efore the era of high-priced beef
nd other farm products; before scince
had taken a hand in the farm
perations. To-day the farmer is the
ubstantial citizen of the community;
he man with the snug little bank acount?not
wealthy, but still comortably
provided for. To-day thousnds
of farmers' sons are attending
heir various State Universities?
ot for the purpose of studying medcine
or law or theology, but for the
mrpose of learning how to farm.
\griculture has advanced from a
ule-of-thumb art to a business basd
on science. It demands the best
snergies of our wide-awake young
nen and women, and rewards them
