Little Mountain for a Summer Resort.
The Piedmont Land Improvement
Company has purchased from Mr. F. H.
Dominick the Little Mountain, some
times known as Ruff's Mountain. This
mountain is close by the line of the
Columibia, Newberry and Laurens
Railroad, and no doubt the Piedmont
company has an eye to making a~
famous summer resort of this mouni
taini when the railroad is completed. It
is elevated and healthy, and theseeneryv
good, and by theerection of a large hotel
it could be miade a f:unous sunlmner
resort.

New Railroad Schedules.
A general cintige in the schedule
)f the Iielilo id and Danville systen:
Xas mS1adc .Ju ne 24. On the ('olumbi
tn:l Greenville division the train fron.
,oluibia arrives at Newberry at 12.:'(
:. n.. and the train from Greenville at
.12 p. ni. 'he int!tins pas-s at Chap
,ells.
The \Ncw\s and Courier of Mondam
-tatcd that daily trains would be rut
in the main line of the Columbia am
receiiville Railroad, but this is a mis
;ake. There will be a Sunday train be.
t'ween Columbia and Asheville.
There is also a slight change inl th
(hedlule of the Laurens train, whiel
rrives from Laurens at 8.25 a. in. anc
roi Columbia at 4.50 p. in.
The South Carolina Railway make:
i fast cun from Charleston to Columbia
Tlie distance is 130 miles, and the run
Including stop)pages, is made in thre<
tours and fifteen iminutes.
Eleven years ago the first train wen
hrougli from Charleston to Greenvill
in about fourteen hours, passing New
berry at 3 p. m. That was a great ad
vance over one whole day of gettin.
even from Charleston to Columbia
The run is now mnale from Charlestoi
to ( eenville in ten and a half hours
md from Charleston to Newberry
nearly two-thirds of the distance fron
Charleston to Greenville-in five and
half hours.
Visitors front Newberry to Gleni
prings now have a more convenien
way of getting to that timne-honore<
uumnmer resort. They can leave on th,
Laurens train at 8.2.3 a. in., arriving a
Alston in less than an hour, where the:
,-ant pass a pleasant two-hours-and-.
half in the twin cities on the Broa
until the regular mail train from Cc
lunibia leaves at 11.30 a. I., which put
them down in Spartanburg at 2.40 p. m
The night trains between Charlestoi
and Asheville, via Alston, have bee
discontinued.
The northbound train on the Chal
lotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroai
now leaves Columbia at 10.30 a. m., in
stead pf 1.30 p. i. as heretofore, ani
makes close connections for Northeri
cities, arriving in New York the nex
day at 1.20 p. m.
The new schedules are very satisfa(
tory.
Picnic at Bethlehem.
The picnic of the Woman's Home an
Foreign Missionary Society of Bethhi
hem church, near Pomaria, S. C
which came off on the 23d was quite
success. There was a large crowd pre
ent. In the forenoon Prof. E. 0. Count
and Rev. J1. B. Fox made excellen
addresses on the subject of "Missions.
The audience then adljourned to thm
grove where wa spread a bountiful r<
past, of which all were invited to pa'
take. The ladies had ice-cream an
lemonade for sale; the gross amour
realized was nearly thirty dollars.
Afttr a recess of an hour and a ha
the audience reassembled to listen wit
pleasure to another missionary address
which was delivered by Rev. H. !
Wingard, of Springfield, Ga.
After this address we were favore
with a recitation. "Thue New Churc:
Organ," which was gracefully rendere,
by Miss Rosa Smith, of Charleston.
Of the addresses it is sufficient to saa
that they were une xcelled by any 1
which we have ever had the pleasui
of listeninig. We venture to say ther
was no member of the society who di
not feel encouraged, her interest r<
awakened, and her desire to do somi
thing for the Master increased.
The society received an addition<
several new members.
The next day the Rev. H. S. Winf
arl, wvho wvas once the highly esteeme
pastor of this church, preached an e:
celent sermon to a large and appr<
iat ive congregation.

well cleaned, and in fair condition.
Rain now would be of advantage.
Last week we were glad to meet Mr. d
Bowman Holley, an old pupil of ours,
on his way home in Edgefield, from
Wtolord College, where he attained to
the first grade in all of his studies. Mr. a
Holley is preparing to enter the min- g
istry of the M. E. Church South. May k
success continue to attend him. sl
While the typo is "setting up" this n
letter for the press, the writer will be
enjoying the delicious juicy eat fish at
Freshley's on Broad river. Wish that
Dr. Folk could be with me but he must
forego this exuulsite pleasure. Poor s.
fellow, he is quarantined off George- j
town in Winyah Bay. Never mind
Dr. your time will come yet.
Hurrah ! for Shearouse. We will say
hurrah for him every time he tackles e
" woman's right to vote" in the clear,
logical manner in which he did v
in his speech at Newberry Col
lege. We want no "woman's right to
vote" down South where we have a
certain class of women who would de- d
light to throng the ballot box the whole a
day. An arrangement of this kind
would suit Sherman, Blaine, Ingalls,
paralytic Fairchild and baby eater a
Frank Hix, and such like, but do n
please excuse all decent people from b
such a mixed ballot. It is badly b
enough mixed as it is, and for the sake
of common decency, if for no other $
reason, let us not have it any worse. P
Prosperity sent a good round dele- P
gation to the commencement exercises
of Newberry College. It was our pleas
ure to be one of the number. There is
only one general verdict as to these ex
ercises, not only here, but of all with
whom we conversed upon the subject,
and the verdict is this : "It is the best
commencement that Newberry College
has ever had." Vox pop uti. We were
peculiarly and forcibly impressed with
the Junior exhibition. We have seen
graduating classes fall below these six
young men, in their graduating(
speeches, both in composition and
delivery. The exercises from beginning
to end were extraordinarily good, not a
single balk of failure, and the large au
dience never tiring. The boys, the
small boys of the town of Newberry,
dserve credit for their excellent be
havior, and good conduct throughout
the e *e:cises. Three cheers -for the
conduct of the boys, the small boys of
the town of Newberry.
The moonlight picnic of Grace
Church Sunday School came off last
Thursday night as billed, and was a
complete success. Long tables with
spotless cloths, fairly groaned under
the weight of sweet meats of all kinds.
Ice cold lemonade was dispensed with
out stint. The intermediate and in
fantile departments at the proper time
were assembled in the room of the lat
ter, and marched in double-file to the
table. All other persons then, old and
young took their positions at the table
-a blessing was asked, and then the
pinic commenced in earnest. All were
filled chock full and several baskets
full of fragments might have been
gathered up. Every body enjoyed them
selves to the utmost. It certainly was
the event of the season and in our judg
ent puts a quietus on noonday pic
nics in a sweltering sun with the ther-1
mometer away up in the 90's. As the
evening shades close in, and the
moon's silver rays fall gently on all
around, and the soft evening zephyrs
are soothingly wafted on youth andi
beauty, manhood and old age are all
prepared for real nice cool evening en
joyment. YUBE.

One of the nost interesting features
commeucerent week, to a great
any at least, was the entertainment
st Wednesday evening in the Opera
ouse, known as "Commencement
all," although separate and distinct
on the College. At an early hour
e hall was brilliantly lighted, a raised
)or and well-waxed had been inserted I
i a level with the stage, and from a
mporary rostrum erected for the pur
>se, the Charlotte String Band dis
mnsed its usual charming and soul- 5
irring music. A large crowd looked
wn from the galleries upon the fair r
ene below, while the lower platform
as well filled with prominent visitors
id those who enjoyed the tempting
iort. To one unaccustomed to look
pon such a scene of female graceful
e attractions and beauty, he is car
ed back to the days when he reveled
the joyous festivities and romantic
Ztertainments of the "Arabian
ights."

vithout the jovial and familiar face of

Mr. Nathan E. Aull has been elected

to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
resignation of Mr. Arthur Kibler. Miss
Beulah Greneker was re-elected assist

s late competent principal, we are
>leased to know that he will be sue
eeded by so worthy a young gentleman
is Mr. Aull, who comes fresh to the

w'ith him very flattering testimonials.

; do some good work for the younger
