4i1dn1 CLASS. AWARDED DIPLOMAS. SUCCESSFUL COMMENCBMBNT DRAWS TO A,CLOSE. Medal Contests-Alumni Address-Literary Address-Commencemlut Day Exercises. 'the annual commencement of New. berry College was brought to a close with the commencement day exercises on Wednesday morning, when four young vomen and nineteen young men received their diplomas. From every standpoint the commen cement season has been a success, and .he friends of the college have been in spired to renewed activity and greater efforts in her behalf. The actionof the Alumni Association practically assuring the erection of the long-needed gymnas ium at an early date, the establishment of a scholarship by the large gradua l.Mon class, the fact that the erection of enwbuilding for recitation rooms nd society halls is assured- all these acts, and many more evidences of new fe, have made the annual commence ment just passed an event of great moment in the history of the institu tion. The city was full of visitors, and very large audiences attended all the exer. cises. Commencement Day. ' The second largest graduation class in the history of the college, twenty three young people just commencing the active duties of the larger life, strong in hope for the future, eager to put their four years of training to the test in the big world without, greeted the large audience which assembled in the opera house on Wednesday morning. Eight members of the class had been selected to deliver orations. These, with their subjects, were: M. E. Abrams, Whitmire, "When the World Grows Old." J. W. Ballentine, Leesville, "Chris tian Character." G. C. Merchant, Jalapa, "The Bubble Reputation.'" A. V. Roesel, Augusta, Ga., "The Decay of Superstition." J. H. Shealy, Little Mountain, "Obli gations of Educated Men." G. P. Voigt, Wilmington, N. C., "The Confidence of Ignorance." B. T. Wise. Plains, Ga., "The Bor derland." R. H. Wise, Plains, Ga., "Whati Resisted." There was na valedictory, three mem bers of the class having been awarded the honor .without distinction: Messrs. G. C' Mefchant, M. E. Abrams, an G. P. Voigt. At the conclusion of the very credit able orations, the degrees were con. ferred by President Geo. B. Cromer ai follows: The degree of Bachelor of Arts upor J. W. B3allentine, Leesville; L. A.

The degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon Mr. J. M. Johnson, c the class of 1902. Dr. Cromer in addressing the grad uating class after conferring the de grees, said, inter alia: "You are gein out now wvith your blood tingling an bounding in your veins. But tomorro, these flowers will have withered, an in a few (lays you will begin to fir that not all the old fogies are old fogie: that not all the young blood( and tU vigorous blood, not all the absence< old1 fogyism is to be found in the undeo graduates of a college. You wvill fir> that there is a dusty way. By the wva: I observe that your class motto is, "19 palm without dust." And yet we se our best handkerchiefs flicking tI dust from our p)atent-leather shoe Find out as soon as you can find out tI thing that you ought to do next, at when you have detnrmined what y< ought to do next, do it. The end< edlucation is moral efficiency. Life aft< all is made up of relationship and ada tation, finding out our place and pu ting ourselves in that place, doing fait fully the wvork wec are called to do. "In suridering these ties today, v have less regret because wo have; much hope, because we believe you a going out with high p)romnise-of go things for you, because we believe th you will (10 whatever you are called to seriously and p)romptly and earnest and punctually. 1 have little pation for the man who does not keel) I appointment, w~ho has not something do, and wvho does not earnestly a steadfastly do it at the appointed tin in the best possible way." During the morning the audience lI orally bestowed applause and flowei and the stage, before the exercit were over, had become one great mou of roses and sweet peas and magnoli and nasturtiums and all the beauti: flowers which mark the approach of the glad commencement season.

Congresmran Lever congratulated all the young ge.n - tlemen, saying the contest had been unusually good. He hoped for the suc cessful one, who had been awarded the decision by a unanimous vote, that this would be only the beginning for him as -an orator. The taking of this mcdal must not be the ending, he said. - As Mr. Lever said in his presentation -speech, the contest was unusually good. All the young gentlemen acquitted them felves with credit, and received the close 'attention of the large audience. - The Alumni Address. The annual address before the Alumni Association was delivered on Tuesday a morning by Mr. Jno. R. Leavell, of Greenwood, who graduated from New berry College in the class of 1881. The exercises were opened with prayer by the Rev. P. H. E. Derrick. g The speaker was introduced by Hon. d Arthur Kibler, President of the Alumni V Association. d Mr. Leavell announced as his theme for d the occasion, "A Study of the Times." ' Trusts, strikes, the differences between e capital andl labor, are some of the most fimportant of the problems which con front us today, said the speaker. All d must be adjusted in accordance with ,the most advanced ideas of right and 0 justice. I The speaker first took up a study of e4 the politIcal situation. Money is power - -so influential that courts and legislatore e are swept before it even as chaff befor< d the wind. The final result is an eterna u fight between capital and labor, making the rich richer and the poor poorer, grindi er ing into the dust with its Iron heel th< P- laboring classes, who are she mainsta: t- and support of thisanation. If our states h-men are to shape the destiny of thil State so as to add to her strength an< ie glory they must be men of high moral so ity, having the highest respect for th< re moral law. Along with our ra'pid stridei xl in commercial and industrial progress at we need the moral and intellectual de 10 velopment, which alone can give hono ly and glory to our nation. ee The speaker next took up a study o his the physical view, saying that there cai to be no objection to the study of p)hysica nd culture in our colleges, so long asi e; does not become the principal study When athletic exercises interfere wit b- the students' routine work, however .s, they should be confined to more narro' es limits. nd The speaker strongly condemned somi ,as points in the State's common scho< rul educational system, aying- that th State is delegating to herself powers which are not properly hers. I do not believe, said Mr. Leavell, that the common school system is developing that high character which the State needs and demands. Are we not building on a dangerous foundation? Are we not aiding the ad vaicement of infidelity and agnosticism by a failure to impart religious instruc tion? Are we not rearing men whose knowledge of foot-ball and boat racing will be infinitely greater than their knowledge of the science of life and the management of government? Gentlemen of the Association, I ap peal to you to step out from the old methods, forms and inactivities and put forth greater effort for the advance ment of Christian education. You who have sat at the feet of Gamaliel and learned, do all in your power to build up this correct system of education, for on its success largely depends the future welfare of this State. On its success depends the highest development of the moral character of our citizens-their best welfare and highest happiness. The Literary Address. The address before the Literary So cieties was delivered on Tuesday eve ning by President Henry L. Smith, of Davidson College, N. C. The speaker reviewed the wonderful achievements of the century that has passed, and the bright outlook for still more wonderful achievements in the hundred years to come. Dr. Smith is a brilliant thinker and an interesting talker, and he re ceived the close and undivided atten tion of his large audience on Tuesday night. The exercises were opened with prayer by the Rev. R. E. Livingaton. The speaker was introduced by Dr. Geo. 13. Cromer. Dr. Smith said that the century so recently swept away by the flood of years was the most memorable history ever recorded.- It was marked by in vention and achievement, the emanci pation of the individual mind and the conquest of nature's secrets. He had decided tonight, if possible, to lift the veil and show some of the wonderful inventions of the coming years. He had chosen as his subject "Some of the Dreams of Modern Scientists." What are the practical scientists of today dreaming of? One hundred and twenty-five years ago men began to learn something of nature and from that year to this there have been coming to light every few years wonderful inventions which have changed entirely the manner of life every one flashing its wonderful bril liance into the intellectual world, and then a quiet period succeeding. But I tell you, during the last twenty-five years these wonders have not come singly, but in battalions. What will be next? I have decided tonight to lift the veil for you and to speculate upon what a thousand dreamers in a thou sand laboratories are working upon. I am going to confine myself to four or five so as to show you their far reach ing significance and the difficulties ir the way of their achievement. The first of these, wvhich wvill revolu tionize the mode of living of ever) family in the civilized world is a cheap, durable and efficient storage battery. The speaker clearly explained the con. struction and uses of the storage bat. tery-the running of electric fans, au tomobiles, etc. It is the most feasibb power for any vehicle. In a grea' many respects, it is an ideal means o: propelling vehicles over the ground The direanm of a thousand experimenter is to make a light storage battery- -o wood, or celuloid, or similar substanc< -one in which there is no waste, an< which will give back at least nine tenths of the power p)ut into it. The mal who invents this will speedily become; multi-millionaire. Two-thirds of th locomotives will go out of commission We will have light, incredibly swif cars propelled by the storage battery Another thing that would change th whole face of civilized society. Th one great nuisance in a city is a horsE The horse is at the foundation of hal the ills of civilized life, and th storage battery would banish the hors< The next dIreanm of the modlern scier tist is the manufacture and productic of cold light At p)resent we can make light without making heat. I an ordinary lamp you pay about 98< 99 cents for heat. that you d'. not wai in order to pay one or two cents for tI light whlich you (do wvant. Thler.e is su<( a thing as cold light. Around the Soul Pole tonight there are millions of mnila of ice and snowv lighted by t'he Auro: Borealis. That's cold light. If y< catch a lightning hug here tonight, I guarantee you wvon't be burned. Th is cold light. So we see there is such thing in the world as cold light. Nc for m.n astounding calculation: T amount of energy given off by an or< nary candIle is twelve foot p)ounds -minute. One p)ound of coal burn gives 12,000,000 foot poundls of ener2 If I could convert all that p)oundl of c< into light with~out heat I would have mue'i light as is given by 1,000,0 Scandles in one minute. The third dream is the p)erfection - jwireless telegraphy. Dr. Smith e r plained the workings of wireless tel graphy. It is the very same in t f Iet:ier that noise andl the hearing of it.a in the air. The objection to it is that a .1I signal will affect any receiver wherev t it may be. The miesages interfere wi .one another. Another great objecti h Iis that you can't send messages vt , far. In 1894 we could send a wireb v mespage only 7 or 8 feet. In 1901 M; coni sent messages across the Atlan e ocean. Let that continue for a f >l years and one difficulty will have b< e donne nanay with. The only way difficulty of the confusion of messages will ever be solved is the invention of a receiver so adjusted that it will re spond only to one note. If those two difficulties could be removed then inag ination fails to picture how knowledge could. be' transferred all around and about us. Another great dream more important than any of them' or all of them put to gether, perhaps. What mankind wants more than anything else is power. That is the great desideratum of the human race. And yet with all the clamoring for it we are living in an ocean of power. The human race is almost dy ing for power, and yet we are floating on a Amazon of it and have not yet learned to dip a bucket into it. This great power is the heat from the sun light, which now is only wasted. Touse this power is one of the dreams that is beckoning on science. There is enough power from the heat of the sun shine on one acre of ground to run ten cotton mills of 500 horse power each-about one horse power to the square yard of sunlight. I have one more dream - the artificial manufacture of food. With all the things that chemistry can make, it can't make food. From the planting of the wheat it takes seven or eight months to make a biscuit. We take the wheat and mix it with a little water and other things and say we made that biscuit. It's not so, nature made it by a laborious process. The wonderful thing about it is that when you unmake that biscuit it seems a very simple thing. Let the biscuit stay on the stove too long and you will have water in the air and charcoal on the stove. The same is true of any kind of vege table or fruit you ever saw in your life, and if you will give me one and a quarter tons of charcoal and a ton of water, and show me how to put them together, I will give you two and a quarter tons of food. The only trouble is toput it to gether. The same is true of sugar, of butter. It is not the bread bills that are breaking your back, you say. It is the butcher's bill. If you will give me 97 pounds of charcoal and water and three pounds of nitrogen, 'and show me how to put them together, I will give you 100 pounds of good, lean beef. Nature takes a long time to make beef--it has seemed to me sometimes that she has taken an age. That is the dream of our modern chemists-- -to learn how to take those simple things and put them together. If we had a chemis.t with sense enough --but they haven't got it - to put together the boundless water supply and the boundless charcoal sup ply, and the boundless nitrogen supply of the world-all the problems of life will have been solved. This dream is not unreasonable, and I would not be surprised bofore I die to eat artificial and nourishing food out of. a chemical laboratory. . The speaker said this morning he in tendd to make a hortatory address, but he wanted to give them something to think of other than the commonplace -to get them interested ,in some of the movements which will turn the world over. Now I hor" will go home witi; somnetI.' nk about and witl sonr ' about. I w. ., . 'usion, especially t< congratulate- young people begin ning life tomorrow, to congratulati them upon stepping out into the work in an age so full of progress, achieve ment, inspiration and stimulus to thi -young man. Never' was' there a tim< since the world was made when the out look for the young man was so full o: inspiration as it is today, and I want t4 congratulate these young men tha they are facing the future when iti so full of hope.

Trains on the Southern Now Runnint to Columbia and Transfer Being Aade on'C., N. & L. For the first time since Sunday New berry yesterday received an early morn ing mail direct from Columbia and the lower part of the State. The Southern's early passenger between Charleston and Greenville got in, and got in only a very few minutes late. Owing to the wash-outs on the South ern track between Alston and Columbia, and a break on the C., N. & L. trestle just this side of Columbia, Newberry and points above on these two lines had no direct railroad connection with the lower part of the State after Sunday night. The Southern's track went only a few minutes after the passage of the afternoon passenger going into Colum bia and the C., N. & L. trestle followed suit about three o'clock Monday morn ing. On Monday no mail from the lower prt of the State could be received. On Tuesday Monday's mail from Charleston was received around by Augusta and Greenwood, reaching here at 3 o'clock in the afternc :n, and the C., N. & L. connected with a hack line from Columbia to Irmo and brought in late in the afternoon Tuesday's mails from Columbia. Owing to the flood situation, this was the only service obtainable until yester day morning when the Southern was able to begin running its passengers on regular schedule time. THM. C., N. & L. The break on the C., N. & L. trestle was more aerious than was at first thought, and it will be tomorrow at the earliest before this road will be able to operate a train through to Columbia. The hack line which has been in opera tion, however, will be shortened, and instead of stopping at Irmo, as hereto fore, the trains will run to the old Salu da dam, just three miles west of Co lumbia, connecting with a hack line at that point. An-extra was run yester day and will be run again today, leav ing the Saluda dam at. 10 o'clock in the morning viad making the regular con nections for the up-country. The rega lar schedule will be operated on the re turn. It. is reported from Columbia that "The condition with the Columbia, Newherry and Laurens is grave. Not only is the bridge impassable, but the whole course of the river has been so changed at. that point. that a much more substantial structure must replace the damaged and ruined trestle work. The receding waters effected the damage to this bridge and the island was almost washed away. Consequently instead of a trestle a new bridge must be built. Mr. Surnmersett thinks that the damage ctm beleplaced temporarily and trains be runing by Saturday." -VARIO11 ANID ALL ABOUT. Mr. Phil. Flynn, of Union, is in New berry. Messrs. .J. E.
