The general educational board of New York has donated $25,000 to the endowment fund of Wofford College, provided the institution raises $100,- 000 by June 15, 1907. The Rev. R. A. Child, the financial agent of Wofford College, has for several months been hard at work on the $100,000 endow ment fund of the college, and his suc cess has been most gratifying. As announced at the wofford commence ment last June, more than half the amount of the endowment fund las been subscribed, and it is thought that by June of next year, the full amount will have been raised. In the presence of two well known citizens of Bamberg, Eliza Bunch, upon whose testimony W. C. Dickinson was arrested and charged with the death of B. F. Reid by giving him poisoned whiskey, Monday made an affidavit that her testimony was false and ex onerating Dickinson from all blame. In her affidavit the woman gives as a reason for the attempt to place the resposibility on Dickinson that some one told her that unless she did so “her neck would crack for it.” Other affidavits were made by prominent persons Monday which practically es tablished an alibi for Dickinson. Conductor Ed. Lacy was burned to death Monday morning, having been caught and pinioned in the caboose^of a section of through freight No. 54. on the Asheville division of the South ern railway, near Campobello. The accident occurred by a caboose of the first section of the freight leaving its string of cars and backing swiftly on a heavy down grade into the second section, which was close on behind. The reason for the caboose escaping seems a mystery. The cab and three box cars were burned up. The wreck occurred near a small trestle, the other side of Campobello. They stated that when they remov ed her from the station she was and still is seriously sick and is confined to her bed at the home of her friend. They stated that they were not re sponsible for the reports from Kan sas City regarding the affair touch ing on their visit, that they had never made a statement for publication ex- cent the one made to your correspon dent this afternoon.

I have traveled through the South more or less in the last ten years and I have noticed two qualities that stand out above all others in the Southern man. They are everywhere apparent. The hospitality of the South and its veneration for women. But first, last and always comes Its veneration for womanhood. And that was one of fhe many good qualities that my friend Milan possesed and it was the one that caused him to meet his death. Clement G. Miller. A Veteran’s Approval. Blacksburg, Jan. 27.—I have been reading “Reminiscences of the Civil War” written by General John B. Gordon, which Mr. J. L. Strain has those who have the best right to know, to be the best book of tbe kind ever published. It contains full and ac curate accounts of some of the most important battles fought during the Civil war and I unhesitatingly recom mend it to those who have not had the opportunity to read it. General Gordon was a distinguished soldier and statesman, and has done Last week, late in the morning, a ne gro made his entrance into the room of Miss Mable McCubbins and had laid his hands upon her shoulders when she screamed and frightened him away.
