Governor Heyward has appointed J. Siunlor Rhame, of Camden, to & scholarship in the South Carolina medical college. It is reported that petitions will be circulated asking for the holding of j an election on the question of voting; the dispensary out of Charleston coun-! ty. 1,300 signatures will be neces-j sary. Tae dispensary profits in Charleston are $50,000 a year. The jury in the case of Darnell vs. the Enoree Manufacturing company has rendered a verdict for the plain tiff in the sum of $100. Darnell brought suit against the Enoree com pany for damages while riding on an elevator in the mill. The case was begun on Friday, though it was not concluded until Saturday afton^pon. A passenger train on the Seaboard was wrecked Wednesday morning at Fairfax. The engineer, il.-eman and mail clerk and one passenger were injured. The train was hound for Columbia and ran into some box cars which had rolled on the main line. The injured were noi seriously hurt but were taken to Savannah. r i he engine was badly demolished and two cars smashed up. One hundred convicts were poisoned at ihe penitentiary in Columbia Tues day and all were made so sick that they had to go to the hospital. Some were too unwell to be out Wednesday. They were given some fresh cabbage cooked in an old iron pot in which soda was put, to make them tender. This has been done before without any ill effect. It is possible an at tempt to poison was made by the cooks and the contents of the pot were analyzed. Mr. J. N. Carwile. aged 02. dropped dead at 7 o’clock Tuesday morning at the home of his son-in-law, Mr. C. B. McCown, about six miles from Ander son in the Mountain Creek section. The funeral and interment took place at Barker’s Creek church, near Honea Path. The late Mr. Carwile was a gallant Confederate soldier and lost a leg in the service. His wife died during the Civil war, leaving only one child, Mrs. C. B. McCowtr For the past year Mr. Carwile had been one of the teachers in the Orrville school. The managers of the municipal elec tion in Brookland, Lexington county, were arrested Wednesday for fraud in the election. Intendent McCombs, in whose favor the fraud was alleg ed to have been committed, has skip ped out and he has not been arrested. He was fired upon by an officer while running away from arrest but the bul let went wild. Great excitement is raging in Brookland and citizens are I awaiting the further developments. While searching the Dark Corner j section of Greenville county Tuesday , for illicit stills, a gang of moonshiners I spirited away the carriage which the constables had used in driving out to the Dark Corner, carried it into the; fastness of the mountains cut up the j vehicle, piled the pieces in a heap and then applied the torch, burning I the hack to ashes. In addition to. burning the hack, the moonshiners; fired at the officers from ambush about fifty times. Firemen of South Carolina met Tuesday at the headquarters in Co lumbia. there being a very large at tendance. Officers were elected and the benflts of organization was dis cussed. It is proposed to assess the insurance companies of South Caro lina on a basis of two per cent, for the| premiums for the firemen who happen to he injured in a wreck. The exer-1 cises opened with an address by May- i or Gihbes and was called to order by; Mr. Louis Berhrens. of Charleston, and W. J. May. of Columbia, was elect-: ed temporary chairman. The petition which Gov. Heyward j received Tuesday asking for a full; pardon for John Harrison, a negro sent up from Williamsburg ten years ago to serve a life term for the mur der of another negro, named Alfred Singletary, is accompanied by a re markable affidavit from a white man named George W. Arms, who confess es that in order to secure the reward | of $:ift0 offered for the slayer he went to the jail where Harrison was eon-; fined and night after night r ! ’ tied chains near his cell. When thb* led , to extort a confession after ad j told Harrison that the nols» \8 j from the ghost of Singletary, s t says that he appeared in a shee, V made him confess by represen ^ that he was Singletary’s ghost, adds that, the confession aroused muc«., feeling against Harrison. Huge Task. It was a huge task, to undertake the cure of such a had ease of kidney dis-, ease, as that of C. F. Collier, of Cher-1 okee. la., but Electric Bitters .did it. ] He writes: “My kidneys were so far g»ne. I could not sit on a chair without a cushion; and suffered from dreadful backache, headache, and de pression. In Electric Bitters, how ever I found a cure, and by them was restored to perfect health. I recom mend this great tonic medicine to all with weak kidneys, liver or stomach. Guaranteed by Cherokee Drug Co., i druggist; price 50c. Business Men Unite in Requesting R. R. to Pay No Heed to Petitions. At a meeting of the business men of Gaffney held in the city hall last Tuesday the preamble and resolutions printed below were passed unanimous ly. It is probably not out of the way to say that signers of the two petitions that have been circulated were present and took part in the meeting. Dr. J. N. Nesbitt, who was interested in one of the petitions, made a speech in which he took oc casion to say that while he was inter ested in the depot being placed at a certain place because he believed it would enhance the value of his pro perty, still he did not care to be re garded as being a menace to a pub lic enterprise and was therefore hear tily in favor of the resolutions. He wanted a depot and was perfectly wil ling that the railroad companv be al lowed to select its own site without interference on the part of anyone interested in property in the imme diate neighborhood of the proposed site or sites. Mayor Gaffney was made chairman of the meeting and Ed. H. DeCamp secretary. On motion of Mr. Butler a committe consisting of Mayor Gaffney, Dr. Nesbitt and Ed. H. DeCamp was appointed to confer with the railroad officials when they visit Gaffney. This was simply a committee to show some courtesies to the railroad officials when they come and not for the purpose of try ing to influence them in any manner toward the selection of a site. The resolutions above referred to were as follows: Preamble and Resolutions. At a mass meeting of the citizens of Gaffney S. C., in the city hall on Tuesday, May “bth, the following pre amble and resolutions were offered and adopted: Whereas, It having come to the attention of the citizens of Gaffney that the Southern Railway Company has announced its purpose to build a new passenger station in Gaffney, and Whereas. There is a division of opinion on the part of the citizens as to where said depot should be located and Whereas. Some desire the new de pot on the site of the present depot and others desire it on a different site, therefore he it Resolved l^t, That we assure the railroad officials of our earnest ap preciation of the announcement made and pledge ourselves to render* and as sistance within our power to hasten the erection of said new depot. Resolved 2nd, That in view of the difference of opinion that exists we respectfully urge the railroad com pany to give no heed to any petition that may have .already-or may here after he presented to them asking that the new de”*' 4 be located at any particular place. Resolved 3rd, That it is the desire of the citizens here assembled that the new depot he erected as speedily as possible and that the railroad com pany lie permitted to construct this depot withoui annoyance, let or hind rance on the part of anyone, and. upon any site that they may deem to the best interest of the railroad company.

It was so severe that I could not move part of Hie time. I consulted the very- best medical skill available, but could get no relief until Foley’s Kidney Cure was recommended to me. It has been a Godsend to me." Sold by Cherokee Drug Co. NOW IS THE TIME FOR HYOMEI. Far Easier to Cure Catarrh Now Than at Any Other Season. Now is the time to use Hyomet, when the early summer days make it so easy to cure catarrhal troubles. The Hyomei treatment, breathed for a few minutes three or four times a day in May or June, will do good twice as quickly as It did in January, and nearly everyone knows that used faithfully then, it completely rids the system of catarrh. Hyomei is a purely vegetable pre paration whose active curative pro perties are given off when it is breath ed by the aid ot the pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit. It de stroys all germ life in the air passages, purifies the blood by supplying ad ditional ozone, and its healing, vola tile, antiseptic fragrance reaches every corner of the respiratory tract as no medicine taken through stomach can possibly do. The complete Hyomei outfit costs but one dollar, and consists of a neat inhaler that can be carried in the purse or vest-pocket and will last a lifetime, a medicine dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei. Extra bottles of Hyomej can he procured, if desired, for fifty cents. At this season of the year when ca tarrhal troubles can be so quicklv and readily cured, the merits of the Hy- omei treatment should be carefully in vestigated by everyone and a com plete outfit should he in every home. >Tie Gaffney Drug Co. give their per sonal guarantee with every Hvomoi outfit they sell to refund the money if it does not give satisfaction. There is no risk whatever to the purchaser of Hyomei. —June Sale, June 2nd to 10th. Car- roll & Byers. —If you are going on a trip in June, let us fit you out. at our June Sale.

COMMENCEMENT AT LIMESTONE COLLEGE EXERCISES CLOSED WEDNESDAY . NIGHT. Address by Rev. J. H. Boldrige, of Lan caster—Talks by Dr. Lodge and Prof. Griffith—Diplomas Presented. The commencement at Limestone College w’Tiich began on Saturday night, came to an end Wednesday night, and most of the young ladies and teachers of the college have gone to their homes. Monday morning the Alumnae asso ciation of the college had its annual meeting, and the body was addressed by Miss Jennille Gwyn, of Atlanta, Ga., who was a student at the college a few years ago. Her address was a splen did one, and received many words of commendation from those who heard it. Tuesday morning the class day ex ercises were held in the college audi torium. A good sized audience greet ed the senior and junior classes and the members highly entertained their hearers for over an hour. The pro gram, which consisted of music and recitations, was interesting from be ginning to end. and many of the se lections were humorous and amusing, the play upon names being especially good. After the exercises thp art levee was held. In the collection were sketches in pencil and crayon; oil painting and casts. The work was splendid and beautifully executed in every instance, and the display spoke volumes for the art department, which has been under the management of Miss Ida Lansdell for several years. There were no exercises during the day Wednesday, but Wednesday night was commencement proper, and closed the work of the session. The com mencement address was delivered by Rev. J. H. Boldrige. pastor of the Baptist church at Lancaster. Dr. Bold ridge is one of the most talented di vines in the State, and he is a fluent speaker, possessing a pleasing person ality that never fails to charm his audience. His address, as might be presumed, was an excellent one. and he kept his hearers highly entertained for nearly an hour. His words were worthy of reproduction in full, but lack of space forbids their publication. Prof. Griffith, the senior professor of the college, made a short talk, and Dr. I^pdge, the president of the college, de- iTVered an eloquent address to the graduating class. Diplomas were de livered to twenty-six graduates from the different departments, including the Winnie Davis School of History; and a gold medal offered by the pres ident of the class in historical re search, was awarded Miss Lola Mc Clain for the best essay on events in history. The exercises were inter spersed with vocal and instrumental music. All the exercises of commencement were largely attended by the people of Gaffney, and many from adjoining towns and States. Beautiful weather has prevailed throughout, and every feature of the occasion was full of pleasure and enjoyment for the stu dents and visitors alike. Limestone has closed one of the most prosperous sessions in her history, and teachers, from the president down, who t have labored so faithfully for the advance ment of the great work being done there, may well feel proud of their efforts: and they may now take their much needed rest and recreation feel ing easy in the knowledge that they have been true to the trust imposed upon them. Gaffney hopes to see the college crowded from bottom to attic for the next session. $1.00 A YEAR.

Personal Paragraphs Concerning Pop ular People and Short Iteme of General Interest. Wilkinsville, May 30.—The leading papers of the laud are beginning to seriously consider the subject of Sab bath desecration, and well they might, for the tendency of the times is to ignore the Fourth Commandment, both in precept and practice, by a very large per centage of even professing Christians who, more than all others, ought to observe Its sanctity. “Remem ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy” is now one of the practically absolute commands of Holy Writ. That the business • and pleasure seeking world are not. the only guilty violators is abundantly proved by al most every household In the land. At the present rate things are go ing on it will he but a few decades until the Christian Sabbath will be entirely ignored as one of the old fossilized dogmas of our Purtan fore fathers which is no longer entitled to the respect of the progressive age. With the masses Bible reading, prayer and meditation upon divine subjects and teachings have given place to gossip. Sunday visiting and business planning of almost every kind and description. We console ourselves with the knowledge of the fact that ours is not as bad as other communi ties—especially those of great cities where such a large per cent of the people adher to some spurious or anti- Christian religion. They are the rec ognized leaders of society, fashion and influence and soon the leaven will permeate the whole lump. While this state of affairs is as bad as it is, ours is not as good as it ought to he. The secular press has stood silent about as long as it can and maintain its influence and self-respect; and it’s up to the secular newspaper to check this spreading evil. It reaches a class of people who never see the Inside of a Bible or read a religious newspaper —not even that of their own church, if they claim one. Much as it is "cussed," discussed, re-discussed and “cussed” again, no one agency has done more to elevate mankind in general than the pure secular newspaper, for it reaches nearly everybody and in niney-nine cases out of every one hundred, its ideals are of the highest type. It can’t, afford to be otherwise and re tain its influence and self-respect. Wherever the pulpit and press join forces they constitute an inseparable harrier to wrong doing. The moral courage of the masses will, we fear, never reach that degree of superiority ‘hat it will dispute the right of way to the defenders of right against wrong—law and order against law lessness and immorality, virtue against vice and good against evil. We had the pleasure of attending the communion meeting at the Hick ory Grove A. R. Presbyterian church last Sabbath. A very large congrega tion was present and Rev. John A. White, of Blackstocks, pastor of Hopewell church, preached a very able and instructive sermon from the text: “For the love of Christ constraineth us,” 2nd Corinthinas 5:14. Two months from now, to wit: the fourth Sabbath in July, Rev. J. L. Oates, pas tor. expects to begin a revival meeting at Hickory Grove A. R. P church. He will be assisted by some of the ablest ministers of that church and those who attend will hear some good preaching. Among the ministers ex pected to be there are Rev. W. W. Orr, Rev. James S. Moffett and Rev. Mr. Pressley, any of whom it will pay a person to travel many miles to hear. t Whenever you properly strike the “Seceders” you find some of the brainest high-toned men in the land. There is no disputing this assertion, and we say it with all due resoect to the ministers of other denominations, among each of whom we believe we have some of tin* noblest consecrated ChrisHan men the world has ever produced. This bids fair to he a busy week v.ir.h farmers. The attack has been made on General Green. His line ex tends from one end of the cotton belt to the other, but with a week of fair weather and good health, a large part of his army will be subdued. It’s a very had something there is no good at all in. Labor being scarce and high it behooves people to do what they can with their own forces and in this way they will save the cost, annoyance and uncertainty of getting their crops worked out by hired la bor and in the end realize more out of their crops than they possibly can after paying for a lot of worthless and unreliable labor. We gratefully acknowledge receipt of an invitation to attend the com mencement exercises at the Blacks burg high school and regret our in ability to do so, owing to the pressure of matters over which we have no control. The pleasure It would afford us is more easily imagined than de scribed. The Blacksburg people never do things by halves and we can assure those who do attend these exercises that a profitable and enjoyable occa sion awaits them. According to their number and resources no people have done more for themselves and their country than Blacksburg and Its sur rounding territory and they have done it without making any gr^at parade about it, either. We never lose an opportunity to tell the people of old York county that we don’t blame them for not wishing to cede Cherokee town ship to the new county of Cherokee, tor there isn’t a better section or peo ple in the State than York county furnished to make Cherokee the ban ner county of the Piedmont belt.

Mrs. Laura Texas Estes has been quite sick. She is now much better and improving. Yesterday was by far the hottest day we have had this season.

A great, deal of vigilance should be exer cised in the pursuit of these rogues, for justice and safety demand that they roost behind the bars and wear chains. • A severe wind, hail, rain and thun der storm passed over Greensboro about 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Many trees were uprooted, limbs blown off. and electric wires tangled. A large tree in front of Prof. W. A. C.
