THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVF_
How it Ran in the Case of Mr. Truesdel
and Miss Phirer.
GREENWOOD, Jan. ;5.-A part of a
lively rouiance was acted here yester
(lay. Tie midday train on the G., C.
& N. railroad brought in a party of
ladies and gentle:nen who proved very
interestingii not only tt themselves, but
to those in our town who possessed any
degree of curiosity. One was an elderly
wid,.. lady, Mrs. Phifer, and another
he: handsome daughter, Iiss Bessie,
fr-)aj Whitrnires. The gentlemen were
Mr. E V. Truesdel and a friend from
Kersbaw. and Dr. Duckett from Ander
son. It seems that Mr. Truesdel and
Miss Phifer had agreed to undertake a
conjugal life, but the mother would not
consent; so plans were laid for an elope
ment during the trip to Greenville
where the young lady was going to
school, with a cousin.
The mother %uspecting something
wrong upou the young lady's refusal to
pack her "duds', with liercoubin's con
cluded to chaperone them as far as
Cl nton, but upon the train she en
countered the young Romeo, and the
direction was changed. Upon their
arrival here a consultation was held at
the depot, and it was concluded to
wait for the Greenville train, which
was done in the hotel parlor.
Meantine handsome Mr. Truesdel
sought the assistance of one of Green
wood's gallant young ien in the cap
ture of the pretty young lady, while
Dr. Duckett was aiding the mother.
Plans were hurriedly laid for the es
cape, and visit to a divine, but the
guard was too earnest and vigilant; so
the best that could be done was an ar
rangement to stop the train at the
junction, where a close carriage and an
anxious crowd were waiting, but the
scheme was given away by some one
and "all hands" disappointed.
THE COUPLE FINALLY SUCCEEDED.
GREENVILLE, Jan. 6.-There was a ro
mantic marriage in this city this after
noon. On Monday, Miss Bessie Phifer,
of Whitmire's Station, on the Geor
gia. Carolina and Northern Railroad,
boarded the Columbia and Greenville
train to return here to re-enter the
Greenville Female College, where she
has been for sometime. E. V. Truesdel,
a young telegraph operator of Kershaw
County, boarded the same train at the
junction this side of Greenwood. The
train stopped, and the young lady
started to get oft to join Mr. Truesdel,
who bad a vehicle waiting.
The young lady's mother had sus
pected that an elopement would be
attempted, and had accompanied her
daughter to prevent the elopement.
The three persons came on here. Mrs.
Phifer and her daughter stopped at
the house of a relative, and Mrs. Phifer
supposed that he had left the city, but
he was watching, and this afternoon,
learning that the young lady's mother
had gone for a walk, he procured a
carriage, and, boldly going to the house,
had his lady love to join him, and they
were swiftly driven to the house of a
minister and were married.
The young lady's absence was lear
ned too late, and when the mother
started out to search for her, she met
the happy husband returning from the
minister's house.-Special to State.

Jumped from the Train.
On Monday Dr. Jas. McIntosh, the
physician for the R. & D. railroad,was
telegraphed to comne up the road to at
tnd a man who had been injured by
falling from a moving freight train.
Dr. James H. McIntosh attended the
case.
One of the hands on the construc
tion train desired to go up the road to
get something from his house and when
tbe freight train came along he got
aboard, but wben it reached the point
at which be desired to stop, it was
moving at about-15 miles an hour and
did not slow up. So the man in ques
tion concluded he would jump off and
he jumped, but instead of catching
upon his feet he planted his head in
the mud and his body stood there like
a post, as it were. He was not killed,
but when thbe doctor reached him the
blood was running from his nose and
ears. It took place somewhere between
Silver Street and Chappells. We have
been unable to learn the name of the
colored man in question.

The miserable east wind of the past at

poor, suffering humanity, so tried arid

fateful breathb. While our symipathies
should go out to those who suffer from Cq
these oft-repeated calamites, we should IE
be deeply grateful that we have so often a
escaped their visitation while circling
around us. It was Talmage, we think, b

We are frozen up, bogged t.. and

1 o.-i . g.
It would take a book of several
bApters to 'note the changes of resi
iences along tbese coasts.
Irby's venomous varmints are as
uiet and docile as lambs.
The weather lia- put the brakes on
he wheels of business and brought it
o a perfect stand still.
The grip is prevailing to an alarm
ig extent in town, and even wore so
u the town.Sbi). One physician here
tates that lie saw ) eaits of grip ou
uuday-iany of them are serious.
On Fr'day evening last Mr. Dan
annon died under peculiar and sad
Ircumstances. While eating of rab
it he accidently swallomved a fracture
f the bone, which lodged and im
>edded itself in the throat. He nat
rally became alarmed and called in
physician who failed to find the bone
r give relief. Several other physicians
,ere equally unsuccessful. His throat
rew worse until it. finaiy swelled en
irely shut. After this Le was kept
live by artificial breathing and feed
3g, with the hope that the bone would
)rm an abcess and slough out. Death,
owever, relieved him from bis terri
le sufe rings. He was about 3.5 years
ld and leaves a wife and several chil
ren.
vn Saturday morning Mr. Jacob
awkins, living near here, fell a vic
m to the grip. Mr. Hawkins was
rell known. He was about 70 years
ld and leaves a family.
A few hours later the grim monster
aimed our life long friend, Mr. G.
edam Long as another addition to his
ale host. Mr. Long was one of our
iost staunch, reliable and worthy
itizens, pure and upright in all his
-ansactions, a loving husband and a
ind father. He was an old veteran
i the truest sense. A better soldier
ever carried a musket. At the out
reak of the war, he volunteered in
o. H., 3d So. Ca. Regt. of Vols., where
e remained until the close of the war.
[e was a fortunate soldier, never be
ig wounded sufficient to leave the
eld of battle. If I mistake not he
ever had a furlough dur ng the whole
,ar. He was always where duty called
im. In 176 he was found in ranks
rined and equipped as time and case
emanded, and with an armed organ
tion went to Columbia and there re
kained until Gov. Hampton said
enough, boys, now go home." He
as now obeyed the last command of
is Great Coipmander and Leader,
It is enough! Come up higher." His
ble spirit is now bivouacked on the
ernal shores where wars and rumors
wars come no more.
Mr. Long was about 52 years of age
2d leaves a wife and children in good
rcumstauces.
Late on Sunday evening the relent
ss grip, claimed another victim in the
rson of Mrs. Amelia Hendrix, wife
J. Lambert Hendrix living near
re. Mrs. Hendrix was about 60 years
d, though a very hardy and stout
.dy. Eler remains are buried to-day
Zion church.
Mr. B. Frank Dawkins, whose health
as been declining for a long while is
w in an exceedingly critical condi
on, and cannot survive much longer,
i fact death is expected at any mo
tent.
The weather is peculiarly adapted to

TEACHERS' COLUMN.
T,us. W. KEirr, Editor.
Teacherr' Assuciation.
The County Teachers' Association
met at the new Graded Sehool buildin<z
on last Saturday.
Althou--h the weather was unfavor
able, a good number of teachers were
present, both to hear and to take part
in the <iscussions.
Prof. 1'. M. Huuter read a thought
fully prepared paper oa "conp-sition
work." He gave soie valuable ideas
as to how this subject should be treated
in our schools. Several teachers took
part in the discussion that followed,
and for a time it was quite animated.
It is very plain that this subject does
not receive tie attention it sliuld, and
it is well for its importauce t- be forci
bly presented in our Association.
Miss Ella Sheldon and Mr. M. W.
Purifoy were to have read papers, but
were both absent. They doubltess had
sufficient excuse, as they are inter
ested in the work of the Association,
and would have been present had noth
ing prevented.
It was suggested by Mrs. Long that
the programme be carried out, which
suggestion met with the approval of
the Association.
"How can we best teach good man
ners in the school room?" was discussed
at some length. A few teachers were
of the opinion that the teacher should
only tell the pupil bow he should con
duct himself at school, and to go be
yond that would be interfering with
what properly belonged to the parent.
The majority were of the opinion, how
ever, that it is the teacher's duty to
teach good manners not only as they
refer to the school, but to other places
as well.
The Executive Committee did not
report a programme for the next meet
ing, as they thought it best not to pub
lish it more than two weeks before the
Association meets.
It was gratifying to see several teach
ers present who have never attended
the Association. We hope that they
may come. again. We can assure them
they will be benefitted by attending.
Prof. Evans kindly offered the
Graded School building for future meet
ings.
The next meeting will be held at
Newberry on the 2nd Satirday in Feb
ruary. K.
One great mistake too often made in
Dur schools is that teachers advance
their pupils too rapidly. Pupils of
course wish to advance rapidly in the
chools, that is, they wish to lay down
ne book and take up a higher one as
fast as possible. It may be gratifying
to see children wish to go in a hurry,
but at the same time what we often
suppose to be progress is not progress.
rboroughness, especially in the lower
;rades, is absolutely necessary to suc
3essful teaching. That teacher who
insists upon thorough preparatiod is the
>ne who is making the real progress
n her school. We sometimes find
,bildren reading in the fourth reader
who are scarcely prepared for the third.
rhey are often given a grammar before
bey can read the sentences intelligent
y. This is a mistake and should be
-orrected. In our ungraded schools let
is attempt to do thorough preparatory
work.
