DAGNALL WAS IN SEMINOLE WAR, Ono of tho Few Surviving Soldiers of the Struggle?Lives NOW at Fountain Inn. A few days ago, says the Anderson Mail, there appeared in the newspa pers a statement to the effect that Thomas IJ. Howard, of Houston, Texas, had been granted a pension by the Washington oflice and is probably tho only survivor of the Seminole war of 1835. This is a mistake and sounds liko it might havo come from Georgia, for Mr. Elbert II. Dagnall, grandfather of the popular attorney of this city, is in his 93fd year, having boon born In 1011 and went to the Sominolo Indian war in 183">. Ho went from Augusta in Capt. Bones' company us a volunteer. He Is and has been for years a great sun'eror from rheumatism, but other wise Is in fairly good health and Is ac tive for a man of his ago. IIU mind is clear and ho loves to talk of the good old days of long ago. For years he has made his homo with his eon, Rev. R. R. Dagnall, of the South Carolina con ference, and is now Hyirjg at Fountain Inn, S. C, whore the Rev. Mr. Dag nall is stationed. Tho past two yoars ho lived with his son at Irva, In this county. He hah drawn a pension of $10 for several years and through the per sistency of Congressman Aiken his pension has been increased to $20 por month. At this tlmo tho remarkable old veteran is visiting his daughter, Mrs. Hartfiolds, in Atlanta. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.

Changes and Improve ments Contemplated. Chnlror Electrical Biiglneorlug to he . Established The St. Louis Ex? position?Drill Masters? Col. John P. Thorn is, ex-suporln tendent of the South Carolina Military Academy, spent Wednesday and Th?rs? day here in tho interest of that inst itution, for which ho Is making a can vas of the Piedmont counties. Speak ing of the affairs of tho academy, or the Citadel, as it is better known, Col. Thomas said: "At its next meet ing the board of visitors of tho Acad emy expects to add to tho ourrlouluin tho chair of eleu!rleal solonce. It is proposed to readjust tho curriculum so as to permit the cadets upon roach iog tho senior year, to solcct between the two courses off ered, choosing ac cording to tho pursuit in life which each expects to follow. Tho board will meet on August 30. The board also has in contemplation the sending of the corps Oi cadets next year to the St. Louis exposition for in struction. Another movement of importance to tho Citadel is the etTorfc already com monced to induce tho clly of Charles ton to turn over tl it tho present po lice station building. Th's building with comparatively Inexpensive changas would add largely t<> the equipment of the institution In recita tion and society rooms and would pro vide facilities for a fine gymnaitiin. This suggestion was first inado by Col. Thomas some time ago and it has met with manifestations of approvnl in Charleston. Col. Thomas advocates a chargo in the present regulations of theaoadomy so as to provido that beneficiary cadets after graduation shall either teach two years in the public schools or s jrvc for the same time as drill masters in the s'.ate militia organization. On ac count of the rene wed interest in mil it'a affairs, growing cut of tho re cently enacted federal laws as well os the need becoming more manifest of a well trained state militia this sugges tion is especially timely. Thoroughly trained drill masters fresh from the "West Point of the Soulh" would be of value at tho regimental encampments. FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.
