More Profitable Employment for Com
victs-Query for the Press.

\ spirit of railroad building exists in upper
South Carolina but the people are unable to
execute their plans because OF their limited
means The State may readily help the vari-
Gus railroad corporations, and at the same
Time advance the Interests of the whole Stale,
hy hiring to these companies all Of our avail
able convic,s, or condition that the corpora
tons shall clothc feed and guard the convicts
ut their own expense; and on the further con.
,l:ion that the state will take pay for their
services in bonds or stock Of the various rail-
roads.
In view of the fact that n large appropriation
from the public treasury will have to be made
next winter for the maintenance OF the peni-
tertiary, we are inclined to think such
course will commend itself to the practical
business men OF the Legislature.
As the hiring OF convicts will tend to devcl-
Cd the up country. ourreopc may he prepared
TO hear strenuous objection to such course
from the Charleston delegation, on the ground
of humanity To the couvicts, which objection
Will probably be sustained by the Columbia
delegation for the same alleged reason.
Let us agilatc this question, and see If CO.
lumbia cannot be Induced to consent for the
ra!lroal corporations to have some Of the con-
ricts OH the terms named above. That city
has had large number of convicts which
were supported at the expense of the State
What say our brethren ST the press along the
lines of the Narrow Gauge road from Green
VILE 10 Augusta, from Ncwbeiry to Augusta,
the G., c. G, SCI r.. the Chester, Green
wood and Abbevile K. r., and other roads
now in contemplation Why not divide out
the convicts among the railroads and the ca
nal, giving each corporation fair chance?

School Commissioner Hodges IS reported to
have said last Saturday at Due West:
an other counties of the State the money
allowed for expenses of Institutes was given
IN the faculty and they naturally p0cketcd ii
and left none Of Ii in the county. But those
noble and self.Sacriiicing men and women OF
the two colleges at Due West. who have done
80 much for the cause of education in the
South, and especially in AbhevIllG county,
generously took the money which the law al :
bowed them for their service and gave it To
the poorly paid teachers oi the county 10 pay
thci: board while attending the lnStitutc.H
Are the teachers of Abbevillc county pau
pcrs, that they want any contribution from
the brethren Mt Due West, or arc the Teacher S
Institutes in other localities conducted Oh
doubtful principles of integrity? As a matter
Of fact, did not the School commissioner take
the money out OF the public treasury to pay
the hoard of the teachers? 1t is generally un-
.lcrs TODD that he puid their hoard at the New
Hotel last year, out OF the children's money.

a Managers Lucky Number.

Col. John Mctauil. of the Broad
Street Opera House. i, in 40 WAY an old
man, except that he il Il d~i>bclicycr H.
many poHi!ar theories of modern times.
n OF which is The fa'ali.m of the iSIm-
Der l3. He declares the dogma 81 one
plus 4 dozen being a combination Of
misfortune j. hcrc,y. To the energetic
manager Of The Mikaio' and Black
Hussar" the number j fall Of charm
and luck. This WI, the conclusion
that the Times gaihrrrr came 10. after
a short talk with the Colonel. The con-
versation Wa, brought abou, by the hap
py manner in which the colonel had
written an acceptance 10 q dInncr "a bc
given by the fampu, ~" Club o. New
York.
Colonel, do You have no feeling Of
fear To sit down Will a company Of tllr-
tccn?" was the query.
This made thcananagcrial Napoleon
smile. and he remarked:
Il should certainly feel uncomfortable
with any other number around the f.
tai board. SrInc people lose their APP
pctitcs when there are thirteen at the
feast, and Ill a whole year expecting
trouble. AT two of the most enjoyable
fcasts | ever sat down Ia there were just
thirteen i'll the COMPANY They wcr"
given when we opened The Mlhado'
season here.
"At the supper given the night before
our opening with the DOylcy Carte
Company there were jus, thirteen gcn-
tlcm"n from Japan and maid- from
..I..l .I,I.., IL. ,I.,,l.., -, !. "a
elect. On the night 81 oar opening
we entertained Sir Arthur Sullivan al
dinner and we had thirteen az the table,
and the great composer thought IL 80
unique that he wrote home about il.
This was certainly Il pretty how
DIV. do for nervous folk, and a kettle
of fish for people who are supcr>,ltiolie.
We did not have such bad luck, after
all. We opened with Il $500 house
and PLAYED 4 successful season of ihlI-
teen weeks.
Il n.vcr understood WHY thirteen WAS
NV magical number until | recalled the
