A War Iteminifcence.
The death of General Sherman recalls
to mem.-ory how Newberry escaped de
struction at the hands of his troops. A
portion of Sherman's army-Kilpat
rick's cavalry-made a detour through
the Fork, for the purpose of destroying
Newberry, the railroad and the Helena
Workshops. They approached within
thirteen or fourteen milesof the town,
but were toiled by the tale of an old
darkit sent to meet them.
They were told that Newberry liter
ally swarmed with Confederate sol
diers. Gen. Cheatham was here with
several thousand men, not enough to
have offered resistance had they come.
Capt. Edward Kingsnore and Messrs.
Mike Bowers and Luther Riser, and
perhaps others, went out as scouts and
narrowly escaped with their lives, be
ing shot at; the enemy having turned
about to cross the Enoree did not
pursue Bowers and Riser very far, but
Kingsmore was captured, having al
lowed his horse to escape him. He was
taken by Sherman's army into North
Carolina, but was re-captured by John
stone's army and returned home, giv.
ing an account of the rough treatment
be had received from the enemy.
When the garrison was stationed in
the college building in the summer of
IS65 the writer often heard the soldiers
remark that a fine prize bad escaped
their hands when they did not get to
ew berry before the war closed.

OUR PROSPERITY LETTER.
Mr. J. C. Hunter, Postmaster r
Union C. H., S. C., visited his brotl
and other relatives here during thi
week.
Notwithstanding the continuou
rains and bad cowition of the road

our merchnns wear nice, pleasant face:
The co-lin movement for the p;ti

The celebrated ease of thie State v4
J. P. Bowers, for threats of ar:4on
which has been in the Lexingtot
courts for quite awhile, was erased fron
the (locket last Monday by Judge Hud
son. This settles a long vexed case
though all the partles are not happi
and serene.
I do not desire to write a dissertation
on dogs for the quality and quantit3
of canines on these coasts are entirel3
too numerous, but I would like to set
a certain policeman in the town 0
Ntwberry with whom I am well1 a(.
quainted, make at least one nocturnal
visit to this place, armed and equipped
according to the emergency. If hE
will come thus prepared, I will throw
in a double barrel shot gun, an extra
vial of strychnine and a week's board
and lodging. On Monday night after
supper I bought a fine magnolia harm,
and placed it where the hams belong,
without the material knowledge of the
maternal proprietor of this establish
ment. The next morning I was in
structed to go and purchase a hani.
"No, madam," I replied. "Well, what
are we going to have for breakfast?"
was the rejoinder. "Beefsteak, chicken
and ham," I remarked to her inquisi
tive nature. "But," says she, with
some warmth, "there is no ham here."
"Yes, my dear," I replied, "I bought
one last night after you left the kitchen.
Look on the table near you." "No ham
here," quoth the maternal proprietor.
I looked, and lo and behold, the place
that the ham had lain knew that ham
no more. The dogs had been there!
The door had not been securely fast
ened, and the dogs had got in and
curried away the coveted ham. I
looked on in silence. I could find no
words to do justice to the case, except
that "dog gone with the ham." A
search of the premises revealed no trace
of said ham. "Dog gone witb the
ham." There was more dogs than one,
for one fellow had got his head fast in
a lard jar, and had dragged that jar
some distance. I wish that jar had
contracted just a little around that
dog's neck, or that the dog's head had
expanded some, any way just to have
kept that dog's head wedged in that
jar until morning, when that dog and
jar would have both been dispensed
with. I have almost sworn vengeance
against all dogs that visit this estab
lishment. I am not running the busi
ness of furnishing hams to such tran
sient boarders. They neither register
nor pay their bills. I had to go and
wake up a certain clerk and buy an
other magnolia before breakfast could
proceed. You can bet my bigger half
(she is a heap larger than I) gave me a
good lecture for not hanging that ham
to a large nail she had for tbe purpose.
I tell you when I see a dog around
these premises now I am not happy
and serenie. I am in much trouble
about these dogs. "And the dog didn't
bark." YUBE

About twenty of our teachers met at
the Graded ichool building last Satur
dy. The association was called tc
order byv the School Commissioner.
Prof Laird, the president of the associ
atLion having lit the county, Prof. J.
F. Brown was elected preJdent, Miss
IFanie Baxter was chosen secretary in
place of Nliss Alice Cozby, resigned.
I The elections over, the progranme
for the day was taken up. Miss Mallie
Wheeler, with a chss of about twenty
from the third grade of the New berry
t schools, gave the teachers an interest
ing lesoi in primary English. The
exercise was Lhorougl!, instructive,
ind entirely practical. A gelr_ral dis
cussion of the (iestion showed that
I English is not taught as it should be
in our schools. The pupils begin the
'study of technical grammar too early.
TIhe course of study prepared by a
( coinittee, selected fOr the purpose,
was taken up and pretty well discussed.
The course, as mapped out, requires
eight years. Some were of the opinioi
that it was not far enough advanced,
but should include more of the higher
branches, and not so much time be
given to primary and intermediate
work. The association, however, adopt
ed the course reported by the coimit
tee, without any change.
The school district plan was not dis
cussed, as the school trustees of the
county were not present. This is a
cause of regret to the association as the
question is one of great importance to
W. K. Sligh were unanimously en
dorsed for appointment as members of
the County Board of Examiners. The
State Superintendent of Education,
perhaps will yield to the wishes of the
association this time.
The State Teachers' Association hav
ing decided to establish a place of re
sort for teachers during the summer
months, and to erect a building where
the teachers of the State can meet to
gether. Prof. Brown called on the
members present to aid in the enter
prise. Several responded, and others,
when they see the benefits to be de
rived from the work, will fall in. Any
teacher, or other person, interested in
the public schools has the privilege of
becoming a s:o.kholder. For any in
formation in regard to the matter,
teachers can apply to Prof. Brown.
It was decided to hold the next
meeting of the association at Prosperity.
A full attendance is desired. We hope
that the teachers in and around New
herry will go down to Prosperity to
meet the teachers of that section.
Two school districts were established
in Newberry County in 1888. These
districts are nearly square and contain
something over sixteen square miles
each.
This year about $300 was apportioned
to each of these districts from the two
wills tax, besides this the poll tax was
added to the fund. In one district an
extra tax was raised.
At twen.y-five dollars per month,
the amount given to first grade teach
ers in many of our townships, there
would be enough to run the schools
over six months. The people of the
county should think of this, and decide
to make the change.
An act was passed at the last session
of the General Assembly which will
enable the treasurer to collect a larger
poll tax than ever before. Act 470,
Sec. 2291, reads:
"At the expiration of the time pre
scribed by law to receive returns, each
county Auditor shall make out and
forward to the Board of Trustees of
each Scheol D)istrict within his county
a correct list of the polls returned from
their respective districts. The school
trustees shall examine carefully said
list and report to the Auditor as soon as
p: a:ticable the names of all persons who
shall have failed or neglected to make
returns, and it shall be the duty of the
Auditor to enter upon the books the
names of all persons tIhus reported to
him by boards of school trustees."
The act is a good one and should be
carried out. There are a great many
who do not pay their poil tax, and as
the polls are held for the townships in
which they are collected, it would be
well for trustees to attend to the matter
carefully. T1hey are to look after the
interests of the public schools, and
should do all in their power to increase
the school fund.
