The Atlanta Constitution has the following, which will interest the friends of Capt. WV. H. Green, who has been promoted to the position of gene ral manager of the Richmond and Danville system: "The new general manager is one of the most thoroughly equipped rai.lroad men in the country, and is regarded by the officials of the road and every body else conversant with the facts as with out a superior in ability. He began his railroad career as a machinist in the ahops of the Columbia and Greenville Road. After learning all that was to be learned there he was made passenger conductor on that road. From that position~ he was made master of trains of the North Carolina Railroad-from Goldsboro to Charlotte-and later was promoted to the position of superin tenden~t of the Richmond and Danville division of the Richmond and Danville system. That is the division from Richmond to Charlotte. His next step was to the general superintendency of the Richmond and Danville system, a position he held until his appoint ment as assistant general manager of the system. His elevation to the general managership was considered a question of only a short time, as it wes uader stood Major Randolph had expressed a desire to be relieved of the active work of the position.''

On last Thursday afternoon, in ac cordance with the notice of Mayor Goggans, fifty-four men and boys, resi dents and non-residents, assembled themselves together in the Opera House to discuss the question of lighting the town ofNewberry by electricity. Mayor Gogans called the meeting to order and nominated Capt. J. C. Wilson for chairman, but he declined. Then Capt. I. H. Wright and Mr. S. P. Boozer were both in turn nominated for the same position and both declined. Mayor Goggans then was elected and took the position. E. H. Aull was elected secretarv. The chairman stated the object of the meeting, and the secretary read several letters on the subject of elec tricity and one proposition from a com pany offering to put in an electric plant and furnish 32 candle power in candescent lamps for $25 per annum eaci, or the are light for $100 per an nuim per light. The Mayors of Ander son and Sumter both wrote letters say ing their towns were well pleased with electric lights. Mayor Goggans also stated that the town now had about 80 street lamps which cost about $900 per annum. The meeting was then in possession of all the facts and the ques tion was ready for discussion. Dr. Pelbam Eaid our lights now cost us about $900. Electric lights would cost us about $1,000 or $1,500 more, which he considered a very small iat ter in comparison with the difference in the lights, and he moved that the Town Council be empowered to con tract for electric lights. This motion was seconded by C. C. McWbirter. Capt. R. H. W!ght said he was not op,,,sed to electric lights, but he thought there were other things more im portant and that were needed a great deal more. He thought a system of water works more important. If we could. afford both it would be well, but water works would be worth a great deal more. Electric lights were something of a luxury, while a good system of water works was a necessity. Mayor Goggans explained that for one year at least there would be no necessity for an extra tax for electric lights. Beyond that he could not speak. Dr. McIntosh said that incandescent lights would not do for our streets. If you go to Columbia you will find that incindescent lights are unsatisfactory. It is time for us to consider expenses he thought. We are now in a house for which we owe every dollar. We now have a graded school tax and a railroad tax and with the other tax on the town, he thought we bad about as much tax as we needed. He said he went out at night about as much as any one, and he could get along very well with the lights we had. ie was in favor of a system of water works. It was a pet scheme of his. Dr. Pelham said he would accept an amendment to his motion to include water works. The little town of An drson has water works and electric liaghts. He was not wedded to the in ,andescent light, but he thought the town should be better lighted. He had no money to throw away, but he wanted to see b:s town move forward. We need mauy things. We needed better streets and other things that he could mention, but we must wake up somewhere if ws -would keep pace with other towns. M. A. Carlisle rose to second the re mar es of Dr. McIntosh. He thought if t be town had any surplus funds on hand that it had better be applied to retiring some of the Opera Nouse bonds. Geo. B. Cromer moved, as a substi tute for Dr. Pelham's motion, that the Town Council be requested to report to an adjourned meeting the feasibility of establishing a system of 'rater works and electric lights. Al.d also that when we adjourn, we adjourn subject to the call of the president. Adopted, and the meeting adjourned. The Leading Fertilizer-The Old Reliable Wando Guano.

Our school remains full. Owning to the cold weather small grain in this nation has a very good appearance. A good many of our farm ers will sow spring oats. Next Monday being saleday a good many of our farmers will visit your town. The digging of a well has been com menced at Prof. Wheeler's new resi dence here. Mrs. Sallie Kinard, of Ridge Road, is on a several days visit to relatives in this neighborhood. Miss Minnie Cannon, of Prosperity, has been employed as assistant teacher in Mt. Pilgrim school. We are pleased to learn the various schools in the county are visited by a full attendance of pupils. School Commissioner Arthur Kibler paid the Excelsior school a pleasant visit last week. Mr. Carroll Shealy, of St. Paul's com munity, left last week for Clemson Coilege, where he goes to attend school at that institution. Mr. James D. Kinard, of New berry College, spent Saturday and Sunday at home. Miss Ellen Counts, of Prosperity, visited friends in this community last week. The social gathering of young folks at Mr. J. D1. Stone's residence on Fri day night was well attended and very much enjoyed. Our farmers are still trading for and buying young mules and still there is demand for more. Could not our farmers raise more of their stock at home not depend so much on the YMth and be at less expense'? Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Wheeler, of this section, spent Saturday night with relatives in Mt. Pilgrimn.community.l We are sorry to learn Mr. J. T. P. Crosson aiid f amily will leave at an early day for their new home near Lewiedale. Mr. Marion Miller, of Mt.

Such a remaarkatnle event is treasured in the mem ory ahd- the agency whereby the good health has been attamned is grateinnly biessed. Henc it ist hat so much is heard in praise of Electric BiLters.

I How many realize this truth. I once heard one who had taught say that he did not care how disorderly the pupils were if they only knew their lessons. This might be satisfactory to some teach ers. but it certainly cannot be to those who know the meaning of the word edu cation. To educate in our common schools certainly does not mean simply to train pupils in the branches named by the Board of Examiners. If that is all, then the mission of the teacher is not so grand. elevating. and ennobling as we have been led to believe But to return to our subject. The teacher will say, "I know my school iL not so orderly as it should be, but I can't help it." To such a teacher we would say: 1st. Do what you say you will do. Don't make threats and fail to carry them out. The better way would be not to make any threats at all. We often hear teache:-s tell pupils that if certain things are done or not done, certain punishment will follow. There is no use for making any such promise because something may arise to prevent its being fulfilled. A teacher once told a child that he would punish him if he did not know a certain lesson. The child could not learn it. What was to be done? Punish the child? Certainly not. It could not accomplish the impossib! to him. 2nd. Don't use the switch too often or too hastily. The switch is a very good thing in its place, but its place is gene rally in the woods where nature has put it that it might grow up to be a tree, when it becomes useful. The switch. it is true, may sometimes do good in the school room, but it often does harm. The teacher who would use it when angry had better not use it at all. It is a mis take, then. to suppose that corporal pun ishment is the way and only way to en force order. If this kind of punishment is often to be resorted to with a child we had better stay at home. 3d. Have few rules for the school, but enforce them. A rule should not be laid down for the government of a school when the teacher is in doubt as to its pro priety. If a rale cannot be carried out to the letter, abolish it. 4th. A teacher should not himself laugh at a child that makes a mistake, nor should he permit the other children to laugh at him. If there is anything that takes the manhood out of a child, or stirs up all the hatred within him, it is to be laughed at. His nature cannot endure it. He becomes an open rebel, and will give his teacher trouble. The above mis take is too often made by teachers who complain that they cannot keep order. Whose fault is it? Let the teacher au swer. 5th. Don't inflict such punishment on a child as will make him an object of ridicule. We once read of a hapless boy who was ordered to stand in the grate with his head up the chimney, while .his companions in crime were invited to laugh at him. Could such treatment as this make a pupil a lover of order and obedi ence? Would it make him admire or re spect his teacher? No. It would only cause him to be disobedient and disor derly. If teachers could only be made to think, to give the subject proper attention, they would not have to complain of unruly schools. Teachecrs' Association. The association met on last Saturday, notwithstanding the unpleasant weather. In the absence of both president and vice preside.., Mr. M. W. Peurifoy was called to the chair. Miss Fannie Baxter was appointed secretary. A fter roll call and the teading of minutes, the published pro gramme was taken up. Prof. Hunter, of the Newberry Graded Schools, read an in structive and carefully prepaaed paper on the methods of teaching arithmetic- Al though Mr. Hunter has not been in the school work very long, yet he seems to appreciate fully the difficulties in the way of teaching arithmetic. He suggested methods and plans which, if carried out, would aid materially in overcoming the difficulties in the way. The subject was discussed by several teachers present, their remarks being principally on pri mary work. The course of study prepared by the committee appointed for that purpose was not taken up, but was postponed until the next meeting. The school district plan was also to have been discussed, but was carried over until the next meeting. It w's agreed to extend an invitation to schoc1 trusCees and others interested in the work to attend the next meeting of the association when the school district will be fully discussed. It is, therefore, earnestly requested that all who advocate the common school sys tem and who desire to make it more ef fective will attend the next association. The State Superintendent of Education having called upon each association in the Stats to commend two persons for members of the County Board of Exam iners, Prof. Brown moved that associa tion recommend Messrs. G-eo. B. Cromner and G. G. Sale. Cair'ed u,nanimously. Besides the work men'ioned above for the next meeting, Miss Mallie Wheeler, of thie graded schools, will have a class from the 3d grade, aoc.will show how the work in her department is carried on. The schools in the lower part of the the county have a large attendance. Some of these schools have been-forced to call in assistants This is - gratifying indeed. and shows that the peopile of our county are not dead to education. The State Superintendent of Education has requested that the county make ar rangcments to hold an institute this sum mer. The Newberrv Board has not yet taken action on the matter, but will at tend to it in time. Mr. J. K. Hair, of Lexington, has taken charge of the Flint Hill school in No. 4, Township.

Miss Edith Tell, formerly milliner for Wise Bros., is stopping for a short while at Wise's Hotel. Rev. Dr. Grier, of Due West, preached two excellent sermons to the congregation of the A. R. P. church here last Sunday. Dr. Grier is always received with great fervor here by all of our people. Frank Lane and Kennie Baker are having a nice time over tbe few bales of cotton that is now coming to market. Frank thinks heknows "some things," and Kennie is sure that he knows "some things,'' and between the two the farmers are realizing big prices. Talking about barrows, one of our young harrowmen, in showing off his harrow the other day, concluded that he would pulverize his foot by piercing both shoe and foot at one evolution. The solution was performed, but the young man was quiet and serene after the performance. He called for the M. D. Messrs. A. H. Kohn and Allen M. Wyse are harrowing at Texas, with twenty-one teeth at a time. Harrow on boys, you'll get there after awhile. Let it rain, which is only now and then, but the farmers are still sowing oats, and preparing for another big crop of cotton. So mote it be. Hurrah for Baker and Lane. They are booming cotton, and can eat as much as any two cotton buyers, i. e., if it suits them. Rev. T. 0. Ksister delivered one of his most excellent sermons on Sunday night last, especially directed to the young men and young women of his congregation. Subject: "Perseverance." Fertilizers are coming in slowly. Tags for cotton seed meal for which the farmers must pay have not been furnisLed as fast the "Department'" promised. Bring in your tags for your stable manure. It is certainly a "fer tilizer" in the strictest sense of the word. We have not got the Railroad Com missioner that we st much looked for, but we are still in hopes of getting a President of the Alliance Bank. Call at once and secure the bargains. A hearty welcome awaits one and all. tf. PURCELL & SPEARMAN. Broke Lexington Jail. On Tuesday night eight prisoners broke out of the LexIngton jail and made good th,ir escape.
