Little, Mayor Proposed Juvenile Brase Band. Some of the juveniles of Burroughs Graded School a**e enthused over the proposition which tbey have been discussing among them selves to organize a brass band and which bas apparently just come to a head. Prom what we can gather from a conversation accidently over heard between two youugsters it appears that there are two considerations in the way of these embryo musicians which stand as stumbling blocks in the way of putting their idea into effect. The first of these is the want of an efficient loader with enough pluck and push to carry the project to a successful end, and the second is the necessary permit of Prof Hunter, the Superintendent, for them to organize. They have the talent, but where are the instruments? Seme of the fair school rparms and male teochers attended the State Teacher's Association, which met in Charleston last week. They were affectionately chaparoned by S H Brown County Superintendent of Education. They returned to their various schools through the county feeling that they are better prepared to teach "Young America how to shoot" by reasons of having attended the assoeiation, and all express themselves as being highly delighted with the hospitality of the grand old "City by the Sea." Escapes An Awful Fate. A thousand tongues could not express the gratitude of Mrs. J. E. Cox, of Joliet. Ill , for her wonderful deliverance from an awful fate. "Typhoid pueumouia had left mo with a dreadful cough, she writes. "Sometimes I had such awful coughing spells I thought I would die. I could get no help from doctor's creatment or other medicines till I used Dr. King's New Discovery. But I owe mv life to this wonderful remedy for I scarcely cough at all now."

I. 1 IIS II Let Every Son of Horry Rally to Her Aid $2,200 YET TO 0E RAISED After All the Hard Work Which Has Been Done to Secure the Industrial School It appears That Defeat Will be Written Upon the Banners of Horry. But This Need' Not Necessarily. be the Case, if the People Will Only Go Down a Little Deeper in Their Pockets. County Pride Demands This Much. The Herald is informed that in the face of all the hard work that the Industrial school committee has done in its repeated elTorts to raise in this county the amount of money necessary to secure the school in Horry, their work is likely to come fcojnaughb. The sum of $10,000 00 in cash was needed, and the com mittee at first met with a promp1 response. We understand tha Tuesday was the limit of tim given for raising this amount, auu the close of that day found them short to the amount of $2200 00 There will, be another meeting of the leaders in the matter on May 6oh, and that will be the last chance Horry will Lave, so far as we are informed, to secure the location of this Industrial school. After such hard wcrk as has been done by those who took the task of asking for subscriptions to the stock, it seems a shamo that the comparatively small balance of a little over two thousand dollars, cannot be raised and the location of the school secured. Those who have contributed as a general rule, contributed liberally, and it will therefore be from new subscribers that thocommittee musi look for raising the balance that u now required, and which it appear.has been so hard to get. CJnles. something is done to gttlhe balance of this needed money Horry will bi out of the running as we are in formed. Good Oat-Look for Tobacco. Reports are to the effect that to bacco plants generally through thi county are small, but large enougn | to plant: that raauy of the farmers have already planted the weed, and many others are now engaged in that work, The plants that have been set out appear to have a good start, very likely induced by the light showers of rain which so far have characterized the weather While plants have been scarce in some sections of the county, farmers will manage to get plenty for their I needs, from the best we can learn, and the oufc-look for a good crop should be good. Those who seem to be in position to know say that the prices this year are likely to be good. So far as Conway is concerned as a mirket, she will bo "strictly in it," this year, to use a slang expression, for she will have three warenouses in operation, and bettor prepared than ever to handle the weed that comes this way.
