Senator TillmtM) and John D
Rockefeller bud a heart-to-heart
talk the other day on a Pullman >,
car, when according to report, the
Pitchfork wielder said some plain (
things to the oil king as to the (
practical application of Northern
philanthropy in the South.
We publish the account of the *
legislators' trip to Winthrop Col- ,
lege by request. We do not ap- ;
prove of these junketing tours at 1
the expense of the State, especially
when the axe to grind is so ,
conspicuously promtueut?viz., a
$30,000 dormitory.
Our correspondent "Progress"
insinuates that certain people are
trying to use the people of John
Bonville as "cat's paws." If the
implication be true, it would not
be hard to locate the manipulators
wUt> are after the chesnuts.
Why
would "Progress" make
Johnsouville pay $50,000 for public
buildings when llutledge proposes
to put them up fo" $8,000?
True the former would be nearer ,
the proper figure, but if Rut- ,
ledge can build a jail a >d court 1
house for $8,000, why so can '
Johnsouville.
If Kutledge county fails we 1
yencure tne opinion cnac 111 jess
than five years there will be a 1
new county with the conrt bouse
somewhere near Johnsonville. On (
the Other band, should the former |
project be successful the people ]
of Johnsonyille will suffer the
i
same inconveniences fifty years heuce
that they are laboriug under today. J
So far as the area of the pro- <
posed connty to be formed from 1
the lower part of Williamsburg *
and the upper part of George- .
town is concerned it is natural {
to suppose that the promoters \
would come nearer getting it by \
carving from two counties than
Butledge county wonld by trying (
to get practically all of its ter- t
ritory from Williamsburg. 2

Death of Ir. I. Van Seven.
j
Suddenly aud almost without s
warning Mr. Herbert Van Keuren,!
the late host of the Van Keuren
Hotel, was stricken down last Suh- day
night. About 9 o'clock while
taiKing co a ineuu m iuc uui?
lobby he complained of feeling sick
and was taken upstairs to his bedroom.
He never spoke after being
taken to his room. Dr. Gamble 4
was quickly sent for and did everything
possible, but the dread summons
had come and no human power
could avail.
The immediate cause of Mr. Van
Keuren's death was apoplexy, although
he had for a long time been
afflicted with Bright's disease.
Mr V an Keuren was about 48'
years old. He came to this county
from New York at the age of *21 and
since then had become thoroughly
identified with the interests of his
adopted home. He married Miss
. i
r
Maggie Ej.Johnson,{by whom he is
survived; also eight children ate left
fatherless by his death.
Mr. Vau Kenren came to Kinystree
from Smith's Mills last .A{ ril
and since that time has been pro
prietor of the Van Kenren Hotel,
The funeral services were held :

A Philadelphia clergyman is 1
he father of a son whose habits 1
>f unpunctuality are a sore 1
:rial. Nevertheless the youth's 1
eady tongue is a source of !
iecret delight to the parent. 1
Once the young man appeared \
it Sunday breakfast twenty \
ninutes after the appointed i
;ime. With a sorrowful face the
ninister contemplated the transgressor
and then his watch.
"Son." said he reproachfully,
is he held the watch so that the
youth might see its accusing
face, "do you think this is right?
Do you honestly think it is
right?"
"Well, father," returned the
young man, regretfully, "I wish
it were about twenty minutes
fast, but as you ask me to sav
honestly, I am afraid it's jus I
about right."?February Lipping
