Nance Camp, No. 336, United Confederate Veterans, met in the :ourthouse Monday, October 2nd, at ii 1. m. A quorum being present the minutes were read and sustained. Dr. S. Pope, from the committee ap pointed to draft resolutions on the death >f Capt. Asa P. Davis, made the following repor' u-"ich was adopted: TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. Asa Pitts Davis, born the 15th day of April, IS2o, md died the 4th day of August, 1893, in the 74th rear of his age. He was twice married-first to Catharine Man fum, and after her death to Matilda Satterwhite. Eis four sons survive him. Mr. Davis, in all the relations of life, bore him elf with conspicuous fidelity. In his family he -as gentle and affectionate, as a neighbor he was :onsiderate and unselfish, as a citizen he. was aithful and patriotic, and as a Christian pure and levoted. For many years he served the Bush Liver Baptist church as one of its deacons. However beautiful the life of this truly good nan appeared to us, his friends and neighbors, ret it was as a soldier we love to think of him. At the beginning of the war of 186r-'65he served n the State troopes, and soon joined the army of gorthern Virginia as a member of Co. B. 3d South arolina Infantry. Quiet and uuobtrusive he ;hirked no duty or danger; amidst mists and langers he was firm and brave. He was twice everely wounded-first at the battle of Savage 5tation on the 29th of June, 1862, and a second ime at the Wilderness on 6th day of May, 1864. We recognize in the death of Mr. Davisthe truth hat the ranks of the survivors of that grandotrug ;le for liberty made by the late Confederate States, rre gradually melting away. We bow in submis dion to this loss, but a as slight testimony of our -egard for our departed comrade; be it Resolved, 1. That we derish the memory of E.sa P. Davis as a son of Newberry, who was faith 7ul to all of the demands of life. 2. That as a soldier of the Southern Confederacy here was nothing in the life and services of our leceased comrade but that warranted praise and idmiratlon. 3. That in his death Newberry County has lost t devoted son; his late comrades in arms a true omrade, and his family one whose devoted life Ividenced his deep attachment. 4. That a pagesof our minute book be devoted to his memory. 5. That a copy of this action of the James D. ,ance Camp be transmi ed to his family, and that the same be publish4 in the newspapers of )ur county. Mr. J~ S. Reid made the report for the :ommittee on By-laws, whieh was adopted;; nY-LAwS. Section z.

The following new members, sons of veterans, were electedkJno. M. Kinard, W. A. McFall, Jesse Y.-McFall, R. L. Whites. The Camp adjourned to meet the 1nst Monday in January, 1894. C. F. BovD, . . Secretary. The Old Graveyard. The Herald and News has been trying for some time to get up a fund to have the old village cemetery cleaned up and put in good condition. We have received some subsctiptions and have $9.20 in bank from the fund contributed by the Y. B. T. Company. The committee we suggested some time ago to visit the grounds has performed its duty' and makes report this week, which report we publish in this connection. To fix up the grounds as they should be will take some money, but we believe the people of Newberry will contribute to this now too long neglected work. A little from each one will make up the necessary amount, and no one will feel the money thus given. The books are now open, and all who feel an interest in this work can leave their money with The Herald and News, and an acknowledgemelit of the amounts will be made each week, and the money deposited in bank along with that we already have. The following amounts have already been subscrtbed: "Citizen" ..................$10oo Y.,B. T. Company..............-9 20 C. F. Boyd................. .. 5 o The following is the report of the com mittee: .,RE?oRT oF CoMMITTEEn. The following, a committee a ppointed to visit the Old Village Graveyard, would report: That on Monday, the 2nd of October, they went to the grounds and made a personal inspection of the same, and find that it should be cleaned off and enclosed. They would therefore recoin mend, i. That the grounds be enclose4 Wth n neat wire fence and that a sufficient space be left doi the east side for a roa41 or street: 2.'That the bushes and rubbish be cleared off and the grounds neatly cleaned up. During the next few days the committce will solicit and receive bids for doing the work and as soon as the bids are received they will be in posi. tion to state what the work will cost. SILAS JToHNSToNE, C. F. BOvD, E. C. JoNES, JNo. M5. KINAStD, Committee. The committee will proceed to secure bids for the work and as soon as th.ey 4do we will publish an estim~ate of what the cost will be, but there is not much likeli hood of our getting more money than it will take to do the work, so the work of contributing can go forward. .Any one who takes the trouble to g down there and look iat the grounds will soon be conviaced of the necessity of the .fork we are trying to have done. When Baby was sick, we gave her Ct,..oria, .When she was a Child, she orled for Oinstoria. When she became Miss, she clung to Cpstoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria, If Any One Will Use a ease of the Harris Lithia Water and is not benefited, the 'money Will be re ftgnded. g 4 Highest of all in Leavening Power oyal NEWBERRY COLLECE Opening of the Session 1893-'94-Large Number of Students- Encouraging Pros pects of this Crowing Institution The thirty fi;th annual sesi 'n :.f this progressive Institution of learning opened on Tuesdlay, October 3.1, at 9 a. in., the exercises 1eing colducted by Rev. Dr. G. W. Holland, Wno enters upon his sixteenth year as President. About 90 students were present, and the number who will arrive during the next few days is expected to extend beyond one bundred. After the usual devotional exercies and anno..ncements, the students pro ceeded to the recitation rooms of the professors for further assignweuts and examination. A glance into the faces of the young mea indicates a serious resolution with the most of theni to do earnest, conscientious work and there is every prospect of a pleasant and suc cessful session. The number catalogued during the last seven years shows most encourag ing progress, notwithstanding the in creasing financial depression during that period, as indicated by the follow ing figures: 1887, 69; 1888, 105; 1889, 103; 1890, 127; 1891,:107; 1892,.98; 1893, 119. The smaller numbers for '91 and '92 are attributed to the opening of the New berry Graded School, and the conse quent demention of the number of students in the Preparatory depart ment. Though th.' Graded Schools continue to flourish, 6he college is be ginning to recovred what it lost in pre vieus years as shown by the catalogue number for 1893. The present opening is the largest since the war and it is quite probable that the number of students will ex ceed any previous year. . Notwith standing the increasing competition through the opening of new: institu tions abd'the stronger exertions made by those of longer standing, New berry college, by her silent though potent in fluence, and more than all through her superior advantages and instruction, has risen ye.r by year, and now re ceives the high endorsement by the President of Yale, of being one of the first colleges of our whole country. , No Big Ad., But all goods marked down to suit the hard times.

Neither was hurt, the men being separated before any damage was done. The fuss arose from the results of the recent adoption of books for the public schools by the State Board, of which Mayfield is chairman. Mayfield had as sured McMahon that his books were the best, but did not vote for them. Both men were asked for statemients, but had very little to say for publication. Te have been summoned to appear before he mayor to-morrow, and if reports are true there.may be some very sensational talk. it is stated that during the conversation between the two men this evening, Mr. Mayfleld asked Mr. McMahQon if he be lieved he were honest, why was it that he had sought an explanation of him (Mayield) for not voting for his (McMa lion's) books. It is said that-Mr.-McMa hon declined to certify very strongly to the honesty part of it, whereupon Mr. Mayfield struck him, and the intercom munication of blows followed.

Heltt Makes a Good Impre,. slon in Sumter. We listened attentively last Friday to he speech of Mr. Jos. L. Keitt but we ailed absolutely to note any third party )olitics in it, except a plea for mhore noney constitute such politics. He cer aimly by his speech did not impress us is being "decidedly a populist and to be idmired much more on account of h;s >pen opposition to Democracy than a ecret foe disguised as a friend of the iousehold." In fact, Mr. Keitt at one ame i i his speech, unless our hearing reatly deceived us, distinctly stated that 2e was a Democrat.-Sumter Herald. ANOTHER OPINION. The speech of Hon. Joseph L. Keitt, mn Friday, was one of the best and most icceptable addresses from an Alliance itand point that has been delivered inthis :ity. He was earnest, but dignified; xplicit and decided in his opinions, but iot dogmatic or bumptious. He is decided y a populist, but we admire an open )pponent much more than a secret foe lisguised as a friend of the household. 3umter Watchman and Southron,_27th. Alliance Meeting.

Tbere was a difficulty on last Wed nesdary between H. S. Knight and a negro, Ben Davis, which resulted in the latter receiving two or three very severe blows across the head with a piece of fence rail. Mr. Knight got a slight bruise on the face with a breast chain. Neighbors interfered and got them apart and neither was seriously hurt. Drs. Houseal and Kibler with Mr. Gray Ellisor, who is -a student of the Charleston medical college, as assist ant, performed an operation on Mr. W. H. Knight and succeeded in draw ing nearly one half pint of fluid from what they calle&'a cyst formed in the right side. Mr. Knight Is now doing very well. It is getting to be the fashion in some parts to address and stamp en velopes on the back with the directions written across the folds. The letter then cannot be opened by an unau thorized person without the fact being detected and such an opportunity is made very difficult. DUDE.
