Dispensation having been granted by Grand Chancellor, there will be a regu lar meeting of Newberry Lodge No. 75 tonight instead of second Tuesday night. All membed~ should be present. The committee appointed to report some program of entertainment for the members, their wives and sweethearts, will report tonight. Knights Pelham and Cavenaugh have gone to Denver, Col., and from all re ports are having an exceedingly pleas ant trip. Grand Chancellor Mower spent last' night in Columbia, making some official visits. He is doing much for Pytnian ism in this domain, and our members are not slow to take up the interest and .encourage him by making New berry Lodge No. 75 what it ought to be in spirit and in work. Get your neighbor to come with you tonight, provided he is a Knight, and wit nes work in the seond rank. He will 825.000 IN DIVIDENDS Will Be Declared Today By the Cotton Mill and the Three Banks Semi-annual dividends to the amount of $25,000 will be declared by the New berry Cotton 'Mills and the National, Commercial and Savings Banks today as follows: Newberry Cotton Mills, 4 per cent. on a captal of $400,000-$16,000. National Bank, 4 per cent. on a capi tal of $150,000-$6,000. Savings Bank, 3 per cent. on a capi tal of $50,000-$1,500. Commercial Bank, 3 per cent. on a capital of $50,000-$1,500. Making a total of $25,000. This is good as far as it goes, but it does not go far enough. Newberry is large enough to have twice as many corcerns declaring as big dividends, and should have them. 1HE tUMM ER SCHOOL tq N-sw Fote, Up-in Its Second Week Work Piogressing Smoothly. The county summer school entered upon its second week yesterday, and I am glad to note that the enrollment has now reached thirty-five. Under the ex cellent supervision of Professors Wal lace and Derrick the school is progress-1 ing finely, and the teachers are being greatly benefited. I wish it could have been convenient for every teacher in the county to at-! tend the school here this year, for I am sure they could not have spent a month more pleasantly and profitably. As I have already said, the instruc tors are doing excellent work, and if there are any other teachers who ex pect to attend and get the benefit of a good summer school course, we should be pleased to enroll them right away, as after this week the school will be half over. I shall say for the benefit of some of the teachers that at the close of the summer school work the teacher-pupils will be given an opportunity to stand an examination for certificates from' questions prepared by the summer school instructors. Respectfully, E Eug. S. Werts. B 48BHALL. Nwberry Plays Inn Cs',ombia This Week The Newberry base ball team will eave on Thursday for Columbia, where they will play four games with the Co-1 umbia team, returning home Saturday ight. The Columbia team will return the dates here on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, July 7th, 8th and 9th. The 'Newberry team has been strengthened greatly by the addition of Wiles, Holland, Fishburne and MeIl winen, all fast players. Besides the hirteen games that have already been. scheduled, there will be numerous oth-J ers to follow. The following compose the team: abaniss, Simpson, Wiles, Holland, Fishburne, McIlwinen, Senn, Saylor, Boozr. Substitutes: Daniels, Fair, Mayes. If our people will give the boys their support there is little doubt that we will have some good ball during the summer. Cotton Mill to Close on Friday, The Newberry Cotton Mills will close own on Friday, the 4th, and work will e suspended until Monday morning. This vacation was given on the 5th in stead of the 4th in order to give the peratives an opportunity to take ad antage of the cheap rates to Columbia, n Saturday. The three Sunday Schools f West End will go down in a body, spending the day in Columbia, and returning Saturday night. It is like ly that many others from West End will take advantage of this excursion. The Southernihas3 made preparations for the crowd and will be able to handle s many as may want to go. Heavy Wind and Rain. A heavy wind and rain storm swept over this county Thursday night, strik ing Newberry about 8.45. It had been a little windy all day, but such a rapid increase in its velocity was sudden and nexpected. The tin roof over the building in which is Mr. 0. M. Jamieson's store was completely lifted off, being rolled up and carried back to Mr. R. J. Mil ler's restaurant. This store and the office of Dr. J. K. Gilder above were flooded with water and some damage was done. At Little Mountain the barn belong ing to Mr. A. N. Boland was blown over and a fine Jersey bull and several sheep killed. Slight damage by falling trees was done in other portions of the county. 'The Raleigh Tourarnfent. It is likely that the Excelsiors will enter the firemen's tournament to be held in Raleigh the latter part of the present month. There is some talk among the members of the company of entering two teams. A meeting was held last night, at which time the mat ter was freely discussed. The Odd Fellows. At a meeting of the Newberry Lodge I. . 0. F. held on Friday night the following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing six months: Cole L. Blease-Noble Grand. J. M. Guinn-Vice Grand. W. A. Thomas-Past Grand. F. H. Kempson-Financial Secretary. Stuart Hudson-Recording Secretary. Theodore Danielson-Treasurer. Installation will take place at the r~oiihn~ m~~tin~ next Fridny night THE SEWER4OE SITUATION. CommisSionerS Hold Vleeting, b : Nothing Definite Done-Mr. Reddoes to Re por thurEday. The commissioners of public works held a meeting Friday afternoon to dis cuss the sewerage situation ar.d to look into the matter of the advisability of asking council for an additional appro priation large enough to sewer the whole city. The present system as cor. templated will include only five miles of pipe, and it is estimated that an ad ditional four miles will be necessary. Mr. R. H. Welch is one of those whom the present system will not reach and he was present Friday and made an argument for its extension. Mr. Beddoes, the city engirteer, was called upon for a report as to the ex act cost of the present system, to be presented at a meeting called for Thursday. When this report has been received the commissioners will be able to take some definite action. NO VERDICT YET. The Case of J. Butler KInsrd Still a Mys te'y to the C'ron -r- Wait in; on Evidene' . The coroner has not yet reached a verdict in the case of J. Butler Kinard, who was burned to death in his house on Mr. H. H. Evans' place, in this county, on the 21st of June. The coro ner held an inquest over the body on that day, but owing to the meagre character of the testimony, and the grave suspicions which were entertain ed that Kinard had been robbed and murdered, adjourned to meet a week later. On Saturday at Mr. J. Vv. Der rick's place the inquest was continued. A good many negroes living around the scene of the fire were examined, and some conflicting tales were told. But the coroner for the second time did not reach a verdict, believing that by in vestigation the truth could be brought to light. The third inquest will be held in the office of Magistrate J. H. Chap pell on Saturday, July 12th. Magistrate Chappell has been requested by the coroner to conduct the investigation, and will do so. Thrown from a Train. Caldwell Ruff, a young man from the lower part of the county, and who now has a position with the Carolina Manu facturing Company, was thrown from, the C., N. and L. train as it was pull ing out from the depot on Sunday, he-' ing knocked unconscious and pretty severely bruised. He had boarded the train as it stopped, intending to get off before it started, but was a little late n doing so. In stepping off he stepped, straight in front of him, and of course, was violently thrown to the ground, -his face striking the rocks. He was car-! ried into the ticket office and soon re gained consciousness. The accident did not prove to be serious, as it might ave been. Need More Help.

Although Newberry's fire fighters did not bring back any of the prizes from he Sumter tournament, they made many friends while in the Game Cock City. The following is from the Sum er Herald. Newberry has a team of which she is justly proud. The men are gentle men throughout and comported them selves as such during the entire time: they were here. They made many friends, and their "hard luck" was de plored by many of the fair sex who ould not see "how it happened" in 24' seconds. Don't Fall to Try This.
