The State Board of Agriculture has decided to locate one of the ex perimental stations in Spartanburg County and the other in Darlington County. The survivors of the Philadelphia brigade and of Pickets corps who op posed each other on the field of bat tie during the iat-. ivil war, met on last Saturday on the old battlefield of Gettysburg. and enjoyed a reunion of good fel' wship. This looks as if the war was over and these friendly meetings will do much to make our people North and South feel that this is their common country and that its future greatness depends upon a unanimity of sentiment and feeling and all this with a proper reverence and remembrance of the principles for which our fathers fought. We publish on the first page of this paper a lot of interesting and en couraging information in regard to our railroad. Also an interesting editorial from, the Ncs and Courr on the advantg es the road will be to us, and good reasons pointing to its early completion. All this is very gratifying to our people who are very much interested in the early comple tion of the road. It would seem from this infortma tion that the work of construction is being vigorously pushed all along the line and that there is plenty of money to keep up this work. We ask those who doubt in regard to this road to read what may be fonnd in this paper in regard to the progress of the work and the ability of the company to carry iton. So:ne time ago a citizen living below Prosperity had one of his horses, and we believe the only one. taken from his stable in the night time and shot. So far nothing has been done to capture the guilty party or parties The gentleman who lost his horse is a poor man and unable to offer a reward. This we consider a most heinous offense and a dastardly and cowardly act and one that should be severely dealt with. The man who is lOW enough to commit such depradations on property is not too good to take life and Derform the acts of the mid night assassin. Now as we have said, the gentle man who had his horse thus killed is a poor man and unable to spe nd any thing in the prosecution of the case. although he is entitled, under the law. to the protection of his life and proper ty and we think the Governor of this State should offer a reward for the detection of the parties who are guilty of this offense. THE EDITOR ABOUT. The editor of the Ha:AL .ND NEws has been about the county a good deal in the past few days anda it is his opinion that the cotton and corn crops re in fine condition and looking well. They are well worked, look healthy an'd are growing nicely. The farmers all feel hopeful and en conraged and wnen the farmer feels good all other callings and p:-ofes stons feel zcod with him for the suc cess of other business depends large It on the success o: tue :armer. On Monday it was cur lessre to drive from Newberry to Mt. Tabor church in the lower section of our countv. Ever.:hin alo the road is encorazinz an t.:s can be read in the ccuntenances of te fr:ners The Mt. Tabor peo.e :ave a nice church bul::g a-nd a so a nice build in or their seeol.

The school is taug'.: by Prof. E. 0. Counts andi nas a lar::e attendance. Just such schools as this one in ever com:nuty taught by a competent teacher and one interested in his work is one of the zreatest wants of our fair southlnd. Let the People of this co:m:unity appnrecia:e what a zreat blessing they nave in tnis schol and. work :ogether to keep it The editor renewed Inany ot tue acquaintancC5es of s youth which was pleasant to ni:n but there were seve:-at taces that were once familiar to him that were no:abir absent. They have gone to jomn the great majority. The day was pleasantly andi we hope profi:ably spent. These observations we feel constrained to make. although our correspondent has done up the occasion well. The edittor ha., a so, in the past few days. spent some little time in the town of Prosperity. We feel very much at home there and always en joy the company of hecr citizens. rrosperity is improving and growing, several new resilences being now in course of construction. She has one of the prettiest depots on the C. & G. R. R. nearly completed. Prosperity also has an eye to be. coming a great health resort. They have what they think is a mineral -l well right in the public street, and if the invalid can be made believe there is virtue in water, the water will do good. The editor drank some of the I water-but not being being a con noisseur in mineral water would not be a competent critic. The water is clear and we thought had a peculiar taste. Some who are drinking it are gaining flesh and feel better. The water has been sent off for chemical ] snalysis. We bope our neghbors have found a well of wonderful medic inal properties for we know no peo ple who would do more to make the place attractive and comfortable to those who visit watering places either for health or pleasure. The Reunion and Picnic at Mt. Tabor. (Speial Correspo ndenee.) Last Monday July 4th, your cor respondent was one of quite a larger number of Newberrians who left town at an early h,ur, bound for the "Reunion" at Mt. Tabor church. After a pleasant drive of two hours through the most prosperous part of our county we reached the church. Here we found scattered in the grove which surrounds the church quite a large crowd-a crowd which included in its numbers many representatives from Newberry and Prosperity, and also from Helena and the upper por tion of the county, and last, but by no means least, nearly all of those hospitable people who live in the neighborhood of Mt. Tabor. The occasion was the annual picnic of the Mt. Tabor Academy, of which Prof. E. 0. Counts is the Principal. And on this occasion they had in vited all the friends of Newberry College to join with them and have a Reunion of her Alumni, Students and Ex-Students. And the day being the 4th of July. it would have been unpatriotic not to celebrate it; so the exercises were of this pleasant triple nature. The morning exercises were held in the grove, and consisted of speeches. pleasantly interspersed with music. They were opened with prayer, after which Prof. E. 0. Counts introduced Dr. W. G. Houseal of Newberry who read the -Declaration of Independence." Elbert H. Aull Esq.. of Newberry. was then intro duced and delivered a well prepared address, which was listened to with marked interest and attention. Prof. Holmes Dysinger of New berry College was the next speaker. Prof. Dysinger is already well known as a speaker; but on this occasion he excelled himself, and his address impressed every one as a most able and thoughtful effort, and it will be long remembered by his hearers. I ehool Commissioner G. G. Sale, followed Prof. Dysin ger, in a speech which was full of wisdom and good counsel. The music which so pleas antly filled the pauses between the speeches, and which was so much ap preciated by the audience was fur nished by Miss Lillie Sligh and Mr. Andrew Boland. At the end of Commissioner Sales address, the welcome sound of the bell was heard -welcome because it sounded, not as usual, an end to recess ; but this time sounded the note for the beginning of the assault on dinner. 'The crowd of six or seven hundred people gathered around the bostifully spread tables, for the gcod people of the Mt. Tabor section realize fulls- that -'The teru~p'ke roa.d to peop'e's hearts. Lies through their mouths, or I mistake For they fed their gaests royally; and we visitors did full justice to the choice and substantial viands of our hospitable entertainers. After dinner the crowd, or at least a part of it (for the church could not hold us all) gathered in the church; and here the --Reunion Meeting" of the Alumni-Students and ex-Stu dent.s of Newberry College was held. The meeting was called to order by Prof. Dysing:r, and Dr. W. G. Houseal was elected President. and J. H. McIntosh Secretary. Dr. Houseal then opened the exer cises with a well prepared address, in the course oi which he introduced as a subieet for discussion, --Education, not 'merely- a means of making money. He~was followed in the discussion of ti:s subikct by Messrs. H. F. Shealv- and Arthur Kibler and Prof. Drs-inger. Prof. Ernest 0. Counts was then introduced by the President. and Prof. Counts' thoughtful treatment of his subject, "The Education of our chldre~n" showed that he thoroughly n.derstands and is sincereis- devoted to that vrofession which he has made his life work. The meeting then adjourned. It was stil early- in the afternoon, an the day had be en so pleasant that the crowd was loath to leave so soon: and. now the picnic feature of the day came nrominentls- to the rout. Some scattered through the grove and enjoyed tete-a-tete chats~ in buggies : while others, among whom was your correspondent, drove to --Lit:le \Mountain" and gave our seves a taste of mountain air v?). A sght rain drov-e us back to the grouns-but even this could not demroen the rleasure of the day. We lingered on-and: even when your corresiendient left at half past six there were still a good many on the grouncs. Then catme the drive home-after a thoroughlys pleasant day-and we! went to bed to dream of a medley of -pretty girls-4th of July-speeches -education-rain-mountain climb ig and fried chicken, etc. Jacob Sharp ( rowina Wor-se NE w Yo'ms.

EDITOR HERALD AND NEWS: In ustice to the Superintendent of the E'enitentiary. I feel it to be my duty. to ;orrect a report that has been made to tnd published in your paper of the 30th of June, to the effect that convicts tre employed to ship wood and other supplies to and trom the State Farm n Lexington County, and to do such )ther labor as should not be done on he Sabbath day, and that the citi .ens of the F:,rk are opposed to said >roceedings, on account of the im moral effect on the young men of said neighborhood, Now, Mr. Editor, the facts are, and [ write advisedly, that no wood or )ther productions have ever been shipped from the State Farm. or Sup plies to it, except in cases of neces sity on the Sabbath day. During the Fear 186 and prior to that time, I visited the farm occasionally on Sunday in the State boat, and walked :as other moral men often do) through the farm from the landing to the :onvict camp. On such occasions such convicts and guard waited on me, who preferred to go as a means :f recreation. Such orders as were iven on such occasions, were always strictly in accordance with my duty i is a manager and penitentiary officer. I am charged with the discipline and management of the farm referred to. and stand ready to prove that the charge as published is ignorantly or maliciously incorrect. For the year 1S87. I have been tur ished a horse and have not used the boat when visiting the farm. On Sunday June 5th, an urgent demand for farm labor was made by different contractors, and it was found neces sarv to take the male and replace them by female convicts on the Lex ington farm, they were marched up through the fork a distance of three miles on that day, quietly and with :ut offence to anybody, when they irrived at the Stockade I found it necessary to clean out and fix up their quarters. so much work was one no, more, as was required for ealth and comfort. I have reason to believe that the ood people of the Fork are friendly is they always have been from my outh up to me, and I would be pained to know that I have been the innocent cause of introducing any immoral principles into their neigh borhood to the injury of their young men, and I would be pleased if they will show wherein any action of mine :r my guard has had any contaminat ing effect upon their youth. Besides the lands are posted and all persons either young or old are required to stay way from said camp. I have been employed at the pen itentiary something over eight years. and as far as I know, all immorailty has been discountenanced and men employed and who have been recom mended by good citizens of their respective counties.

C., July 4.-This morning at half-past S o' :Iock John D. Sheahan met Rufus L. Bishop near the east door of the Courthouse. when Sheahan drew his pistol and shot five or six times in quick suc-I ession at Bishop. who ran into the rerks office and fell. Bishop died in five minutes. Immediately after the shooting Sheahan surrendered bimself and his pistol to L. A. Lang stn, one of the town marshals. The deceased leaves a wife and three children. There was a large crowd in town, and very great regret at the sad occurrence pervades the place. On last Saturday evening Rufus L. Bishop and John D. Sheahan had a difficulty, Bishop using some very in. suting language, saying among other things that Sheahan wa.s a thief. &c., ad'had hired a negro to burn ont Waterloo. The police arrested Bish op and tae matter dropped. J. F. Thompson says thst Bishop cursed Sheahan in his presence and said that be would shoot his (Sheahan's' heart >ut. These threats were made known to Sheahan and hence the shooting. Dr. Boozer, the coroner for the county. was telegraphed for. He came up ad empanelied a jury of inquest., who brought in a verdict that the de :eased. R~ufus L. Bishop. came to hi -eath from the effects of a pistol shotI wound at the hands of John D. Shea 2an.

July 1. During the last month or two the v white people of the Fairview Church. a Simpsonville and Fountain Inn neigh borhood-. have known of secret meetings being held by the negroes. These meet- n ings were always held lait at night and v no questions cr investigation could elicit information of what their purpose was. There was a general idea. how- e ever, that they were part of the Hoover 1 movement, and as the people knew } nothing of it and could learn nothing 1 from the m.:mbers. they naturally con- d eluded that some mischief was being f considered or planned. Then rumors began to fly thieker and thicker, the u white woman became nervous and ex- c cited and the men were uneasy tinder a a vague feeling that there was danger o which they couldn't s_e or know. The u rumors continued to grow and take more s horrible shapes until some people had settled upon the belief that the negroes were arranging a plot to burn all the white peoples' houses on the same night, shoot the men as they ran our. rob and plunder promiscuously. kill the old women and children, and do other and more dreaded harm. Only a very few accepted such stu~fas that. but cool er a er heads saw danger of demoralization and disorders in the continued secret midnight meetings of i_norant people t under unknown guidance for unknown purposes: and the further danger of r trouble from the excited feeling among the young white men. Some farmers comnlained of their lircd hands and renters working badly and becoming indifferent about their crops. On Wednesday a meeting of white people was held at Fairview. Dr. D. R. Anderson. who is universally trusted and respected and a wealthy and con servative man. presiding. An org:ni zation was effected and a squad of armed men was told to go after the man known to be the leader of the Hoover Club of that section. This man readily consented to go with the party, although he had no choice in i:. and after some talking and argument. but without the use of violence. toid wilre his club lit and papers we:e and they were folindI and seized. C Sixteen men whose names w!re found on the club list were sent for, found and carried to Fairview. They were ques tioned separately regarding their know ledge of the t.rganization and its leader Sip and purposes, and their answers r taken in writing by Prof. J. W. Kenne dy. principal of the Fairview school. Some answeredreln,'tantly: othersread ily told h at they kuew. By piecing the stories to;ether, and re-examinations4 and cross-examnination. the bottom of the whole thing wa, reachij, and mighty little there is in It. It was fouhni that i:n May one Sherman McCr ay, a young black man from the Larrei Creek section, went through the Fairview country talking to1] the colortd people wherever lhe could aind them alo::e. in the 'ields or in the houzes, of his new socie:y. He explained that it wouli band the working people together, and that it would reduce meat an'd bread to w hole-ale prices for its'] members. Of course he talked much of co-operation, and rea.-i the labor cat echism and the constitutio:i to his hear ers but tile two ideas aLbove stated, and the fact that there w-as a mnembership fee of riftv-:ive cents seemi to have chiefly impi-ressed the n:egroes.
