THE CORNER STONE LAID. T*ie Interesting Ceremony Witnessed by a Large Concourse of People. Friday was a bright day in the history of the Darlington Guards. The laying of the cor ner stone of their handsome n ;w armory was an occasion worthy of the interest and en thusiasm displayed in it by the members and in this interest and enthusiasm the many friends of the “boys in grey” joined heartily, thus the event was made a pleasant holiday occasion for everyone. The programme was admirably car ried out, even to the minutest detail, and everything, there fore, passed so smoothly that there was nothing to mar the oc casion. The first part of the evening was devoted to the annual in- 8])ection by Assistant Adjutant and Inspector General J. Gary Watts. The boys were in fine trim and made a good appear ance. They executed the field movements and the manual with precision and skill and were highly complimented by the in specting officer. After the inspection the Guards marched to Masonic Hall and the procession was there formed in the following order. Darlington Guards. Darlington Lodge, No. 7, K. of P. St. David’s Lodge, A. F. M. In the ranks of St David’s Lodge were representatives from the Lydia and Hartsville lodges The procession was in command of Gen. W. E. James, who had as his aides his adju tant general, R. L. Dargan,and Messrs S. H. Wilds and Bright Williamson. The column marched to the northeast corn er of the new building, where a large concourse of people had gathered to witness the cere mony. The beautiful and impressive Masonic service of laying the corner stone was carried out in full under the lead of Gen. W. E. James D. D. G. M. Mr. Geo. H. Edwards, in behalf of the owners of the building, made the presentation speech to the Masons. The ceremony was interspersed with the singing of Masonic odes and with beauti ful music from the Italian string band of Columbia. The following is the inscrip tion upon the corner stone: DAR1.1BUTON OUARDS’ ARMORY,! ! ST.DAVID’S LODUK,X072,A.F M. W. K. JAMBS, n.D.O.M. J APRIL 7, A.P., 1803, A.L. ,581)3.

This, however, did not end the festivities, but after an in terval of a few hours the Guards and a large number of their friends assembled in the armory to enjoy THE MILITARY RECEPTION Which was kept up until a late hour. This was undoubted ly the largest reception ever given in Darlington and of the many who were present there v/ere none who did not enjoy it. The Italian band furnished ex quisite music, to which the young people danced long and happily. A plendid supper was served. There was an unusual ly large number of visitors pres ent to enjoy the evening. Among those who attended a representative of The News noted the following: Mrs. E. E. Lunn, Mrs C. W. Hewitt, Mrs. D.

His many relatives Dora—Is that new waist and friends at this place will be ; are having made a creati glad, but not surprised, to know your own. that he is creating a most favor-1 ~ able impressionattheSeminary. But that they may get a better | idea of the high esteem in which he is held by the students, we publish a tribute to Dr. Dargan which appeared in the March number of the Magazine, which is published by the students of the Seminary. The article is as follows: “It might not he out of ordv,r to tell the readers of The Maga zine something of the impres sion which Dr. Dargan hasmade on the students here. That he has made an impression, and a deep one, “is most true.” In deference to him as the Profes sor of Homiletics, we will state under three heads what we con ceive to be the general impres sion of the men concerning him. By way of introduction, we be lieve that Dr. Dargan has as many ardent admirers and as many down right friends in the Seminary as there are students. The first thing that impresses us is his fairness in discussion. He gives ideas and theories op posed to his own full justice, and yet his views are pronoun ced and sound. He is a Baptist all over, and can tell you why, too. Secondly, we are deeply impressed with Dr. Dargan’s humanity. He is made of the same stuff which enters into the composition of the student, even if he is a professor. A man feels like he can talk with him without having prepared a set speech before hand. In short he has“shown himself friendly,” and hence has friends. Lastly, the most noticeable feature of our new professsor, is his great personal m ignetism. There is something in him which makes heavy drafts upon one’s affec tions. “He’s got” you before you know it, and you are not sorry he has made the capture. The manner of stating these divisions perhaps deserves red ink, but it is sometimes impos sible to be coldly homiletical when you really mean all you say. These are not all the things that have impressed us concern ing Dr. Dargan, but they may serve to show that he has gain ed the confidence and sincere esteem of every man in the Seminary.” A VICTIM OF THE WAVES. you m of Cora—Yes.

He and Col. Knox Livingston, of Bennetts- ville, had gone out for a sail in the harbor. A colored man managed the boat. When off the battery the boat capsized and Mr. Martin, who could not swim, was drowned almost im mediately. Col. Livingston and the colored man, after a desperate struggle with the waves, were picked up by a passing tug. Col. Livingston was almost exhausted when saved, but he soon recovered. The news of Mr. Martin’s sad and sudden death was received with universal sorrow in Dar lington, where he was so well known and so generally liked.
