Homicides are no longer exclusive ly confined to the low and vicious classes of society. They have grown more and more respectable until the cultured, refined, and pious are taking a band in them. A Professor Rankin, in Alabama, shot and killed the president of the institution in which they were both teaching, and then killed himself, all because he sus pected McNeil, the president, of be ing instrumental in having him, Rankin, defeated for re-election to his position in the faculty. In New York, Thomas Barker sus pected Rev. John Keller, of New Jersy, of being a little too partial to his, Barker’s wife, and went gunning for him with the result that he brought down his game, shooting out the right eye and shattering the right hand, which two members may be considered to have offended either Barker or their possessor, the Rev. Clergyman. South Carolina, for once, has set an example to her sister States of mildness, prudence, and humaneness, which they will do well to ponder and imitate. Over in Greenville Charles Rice took a ride on the trol ley cars on Sunday afternoon, as he had a perfect right to do, and on re turning to his home found one Joe S zemore on a confidential visit to Mrs. Rice—all of which Rice con sidered offensive to him personally and a violation of good morals and of marital rights. He stepped into a side room without explaining his pur- po-ie in detail and Sizemore very naturally and innocently believing that the inevitable pistol was to be forth-coming, began without unneces sary delay to beat Rice over the head with a hickory stick, and he con tinued his blows with increasing vigor and frequency until the pro ceedings interested Rice no more for the time being. Sizemore then de parted without leaving his card, and has not been heard of since. Rice told a reporter that he did not care to bother with Sizemore any further, that his own head would be well in a few days, and that it would do him no good to have Sizemore put in jail. The reign of peace must be approach ing when such a case as this can hap pen in Greenville. NOTES AND COMMENTS. The South Carolina Baptist did right in demanding the reasons for the resignation of Dr. Murfee from the Greenville Female College, not withstanding the censure of the Greenville News. A full and candid explanation is due the Baptists of the State. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ This week will see the last of the stamp nuisance. It has been a veri table thorn in the flesh and a constant vexation of spirit—a continual re minder in every daily transaction that we are subject to a power not our own and that we cannot transact the most ordinary business without paying *the governing power for the privilege. The whole country will breathe easier and leel freer when the vexation is over. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Russia has given notice that she will levy and collect a high tariff on American importations of bicyles and rosins, in retaliation for the Ameri can duty on Russian petroleum. The funny part of it is that Russia sends no petroleum to this country, but all i.he same her action proves what wo have often said, that the nations of Europe will not always admit our products free of duty while we main tain a high protective tariff against their own. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ One of the “chunks of advice" ad ministered by Hon. Benjamin Ryan Tillman to the students of Newberry College was never to suffer them- lives to be “gagged." We suppose advice was intended as an artful liment to the speaker. It is fng to what a man is capable of saying, whether ho ought to be “gagged" or not. The man who will not scruple to slander better men than himself in order to promote his own selfish interests ought to be 4 'gagged" and that right early. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The newspapers for the past few days have been unusually full of horrors. The disaster In West Vir ginia almost equals that of the Johns town flood Kecretary Hay's son falls out of a window In New Haven, Conn., and is Instantly killed; the strikers in the .SoutneST^railr shops in Columbia make an attack on the non-union mechanics who had taken the places of the strikers, and blood Hows freely; a preacher at Walballa is knocked on the head with an ax by his son-in-law, because ho had advised the son-in-law to go to work and try to make a living for his family; an old lady in Greenville is beaten into a state of unconscious ness by the paramour of an adopted son upon whom she had bestowed all the wealth of a mother’s love from infancy am} whom she had re cently nursed through a long spell of sickness; from our own town two murderers have beuu sent to begin life sentences in the penitentiary, while there are four others who have dyed their hands in human blood and are awaiting trial; and from all direc tions comes the news of disasters and deeds of lawless violence. Still the world moves on and hardly stops to listen to the_ tale of a day’s horrors. MlnuttfH of flit) N. 1*. S, S. Convention.

Buffalo, June 25.—Mr. Editori Please allow me space in your col umn! to say a few words on a public matter concerning the people of Buffalo. The management of the public school at this place bus been so cor rupt that it has almost become a stench in the nostrils of honest peo ple. Not one of the trustees has been pleased with it. It is to be deplored that we have not a superintendent of education capable of giving the people of Buf falo a little reform. To squander public money is a stop in the direc tion of plain stealing and any man, or set of men, guilty of so doing will hear very close watching. i wish to impress it upon the minds of the people of Buffalo to watch after some of their school oflicers and try to stop so much wanton extrava gance of their public school money. The way their money has been wasted is a little more respectable than stealing. Respectfully, W. r. Tolbert.

The revival meeting at the First Baptist church is growing in intercut. The attendance is on the increase and large congregations attend both the forenoon and night services. Mr. Wray is a very magnetic man, some what dramatic in his manner, and withal a most charming and interebt- ing teacher. He presents Bible truths in a simple yet interesting manner and his word-painting is at times en trancing. He impresses one with his earnestness and there can he but lit tle doubt that ho will do a great d< ul of good in Gaffney. He is absolutely free from the sensational and is there fore to be doubly commendid. Mr Wray will remain here until the lat ter part of next week, during which time the meeting will continue. A cordial invitation is extended all to attend these services. 1’astor Cree has had a splendid se lection of popular gospel hymns print ed in pamphlet form for the use of the meeting, and these have been dis tributed on the seats in u profuse manner, giving all who attend the opportunity to join in the singirg. The good old-fashioned congregational singing is a feature of the meeting. ^ HOLD-UP IN DAYLIGHT. Two Yount; Men Coin|tHle<l to ,\ll|;l>t From u KuKKy Near Clifton. D'llfton Industrial Nows.) Wednesday as Mr. T. E. Fuller and Eugene Neighbours were on their re turn home from Spartanburg and were within a mile and a half of their destination, they were held up and ordered to get out of their buggy by a large stalwart man who with a double barrel shot gun threatened to shoot them if they did not obey his orders. These young men receiving such orders from one they had never seen before, and never want to meet again, obeyed the highwayman’s orders. Just as they leaped from the buggy the man with his gun drawn on them clacked to the horse to go on, leaving the two young men standing in the road awaiting further orders from one whom they WQ.uId have willingly obeyed under the circumstances. After the horse and buggy had got out of sight ol this beautiful trio, Messrs. Fuller and Neighbours were ordered to hit the grit down the road, which order they promptly obeyed. The horse and buggy showed up at the stable minus the cushion and whip, and some excitement was rais ed ; but only for a few moments, as the occupants showed up soon after. A Family Kcuiiioii. Rev. T. H. Mullinax, of Grover, N\ O., celebrated Sunday the 2:ird, insf., by having a reunion of his family and direct descen lants at the King’s Mountain battle-ground. There were twenty-six of the children and grand children of Mr. Mullinax present, as well us a few close friends and other relatives of the family. A few hours before dinner were spent in recreation and lively conver sation, and then came the tempting array of eatables which, it is needless to say, received due consideration. In the afternoon religious services were held and Mr. Mullinax preached an appropriate sermon to the small hut happy gathering. The day was most pleasantly spent and every one carried away a train of memories that will brighten their lives for many years to come. Kt-uil It In IIIn Ni;\vN|ni|H-r. George Hchauh, a well known Ger man citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is a constant reader of the Dayton Volkszeitung. He knows that this paper aims to advertise only the best in its columns, and when he saw Chamberlain’s Tain Balm advertised therein for lame back, he did not hesitate in buying a bottle of it for his wife, who for eight weeks had suffered with the most terrible pains in her back and could get no relief. He says: “After using the Tain Balm for a few days my wife said to nag. T feel as though born anew,’ and before using the entire contents of the bottle the unbearable pains had entirely vanished and she could again take up her household duties.” Ho is very thankful and hopes that ail suffering likewise will hear of her wonderful recovery.

We presume they came front some of the mills in the city and were bound for other mills of a like nature, where, probably, wages are no better than at this place, if us good.
