New French Gun.

Could there be an experiment more
ghastly than one described by Figaro
the other day, or one better calculated
to show the sickening brutality of mod
ern war preparations? The new Lebel
gun was tried in its capacity as ma
chine for destroying the human body.
Twenty corpses were arranged at various
distances, and the damage wrought upon
them by the shot was c..l,!u.:5 eA..a.n..
by surgeons, the result being, from a
military point of view, most satisfactory.
France is, meanwhile, the proud posses.
sorof gun which can inaict wounds more
"fne" and dangerous, more difficult to
repair than any other existing gun.
Truly this is great prize, and will excite
much envy. Every nation must have
such guns; in every land the toilers
must give up their hard won living to
provide such weapons for tearing the
bodies of men and the hearts of women
in neighbor lands. Then the devil will
put it into the head of come experimenter
to contriye fresh implement more saw
age still, and the demoniac rivalry will
take fresh run towards success. Surely
the enginery of war is becoming too hor-
rible to be tolerated by the conscience Of
the civilized world. Surely some nation
should refuse to take part in this appall.

Richard Smith, of the Cincinnati
Commercial Ga-ette, will not profit by
Murat Halstead's fate, but talks right
out and to the point. In conversation
with reporter Of the New York Star the
other day, he said: II have been for
twenty five years advocating the election
of United States Senators by popular
vote. Under the present system we have
a Senate composed mainly ofmoney bags
instead of the ablest men ofthe respective
States. Everybody knows that many of
them owe their seats to the use of money
among their respective State legislators,
IF the Senators were elected by popular
vote there would not be the chance for
bribery there is now, and we would have
an abler lot of men in the Senate.

ST. VALENTINES DAY.

In reply to the little girl who wrote for
information in reference to the origin OF
st. Valentines day, we would say:
The 18th of February is, Or more cor
rectly, was celebrated in England, Scot.
land, and in different parts Of the conti-
nent by a very peculiar and amusing
custom. On the eve of Saint Valentine,
a number of young folks-maids and
bachelors-would assemble together and
inscribe upon little billets the names Of
an equal number of each sex, throw
them into an urn or receptacle of some
sort, and then draw them out lottery
wise, care being taken that each should
draw one of the opposite sex. The per.
son thus drawn becomes ones Valentine.
These imaginary engagements often led
to real ones, because each gentleman was
considered bound for whole year to his
Valentine. Gradually different man.
ner of observance grew UP. So that now,
instead of drawing names from an urn,
we are accustomed to see on the
approach Of the day the shop windows
adorned with many quaint pictures and
missions Of love, which are sent by lovers
toloved ones, or as mere pleasantries to
friends. The connection of either Gus.
tom with st. Valentine is purely acci.
dental. Ia the legends of the various
Saints that bear that name, no trace Of
the practice peculiar to. the 18th of Feb
ruary is found. It has been suggested by
learned writer that the custom may
have descended to US from the Romans,
who were accustomed in the observance
of'the Lupercalia, which occurred on the
18th of February, to put the names Of
young women into box, from which
they were drawn by men as chance
directed. The Christian clergy finding it
difficult to extirpate this pagan practice,
gave it sort Of religious aspect by sub.
stituting the names of particular Saints
for those of the women, and it is still q
practice in the R-man Catholic Church
to select on that day some patron Saint
70, the year, who is termed a Valentine

That ne need more money to run our
schools, is admitted on all hands. But
how ara we to get it? The Legislature
has answered the question for us by
enacting at its last session law which
permits the School Districts to levy, by
vote cf the owners Of property of one
hundred dollars and over, an additional
tax not to exceed two mills for school
purposes. One valuable feature of the
law is that it allows each taxpayer when
making his return to the Auditor to des.
ignata at what school house his money
shall be used. In almost every commu-
nifty where we have been, there is a
demand for longer school terms. They
cannot be had without more money.
Here is the opportunity to get the
money. In those places where longer
schools are run a few bear the burden of
it. By this Law the burden will be some
what equalized, and every man will be
made to bear portion Of it. What say
you, Trustees? Will you act?

petition to the faculty to restore Tom.

Poor Tom-good Tom. 1 saw him
wounded at Manassas. BE got wall in

now Old Mack is dead. He died in Bal

age. I wonder how many thousand
hearts gave sigh when they read it. BE
was the students friend and they loved
him. Many a boy has studied his lesson
for Old Mack's sake when be would not
have done so for his own sake. How
kindly tender was his voice as he tolled
US along through the mysteries ofgeome-
try and comic sections and calculus.
How patient he was with US in the field
when he taught US practical surveying
with the chain and compass. How ear.
nest and eloquent when teaching us as.
tronomy by night and pointing out the
consultations in the starry heavens.
Yes, I think see many sad face and
many bosom heave all over the sunny
south as the alumni of Franklin College
and Columbia college one]bysone read
the account of his death. 1t is com.
forting thought that the loving memory
Of a good man goes up like incense from
so many hearts, though they be far apart
and scattered from Maryland to Texas
If We cannot all love each other, ne can
all love him. There is but two left now
of that faculty of noble men-Dr. Le.
conte and Professor Fulton are left
alone. We loved them too, for, like
Professor McCay, they were our unsel6sh
friends. Next to our kindred comes the
teacher of our boyhood in affectionate
memory. tits mutual comfort oflove upon
one side and pride upon the other; for
what teacher is not proud when his pupil
has attained honor and fame and dignity
in the land.

Our readers will remember the terrible
accident that befell Ap. Frierson, of For.
eston, about a year ago. He fell against
arapidly revolving shaft ofa saw mill, and
the head of an iron bolt on this shaft
ground out path through his forehead, on
a line with his nose, the entire upper part
of his nose and the middle of his forehead
for about an inch aud half wide and
more than an inch deep being cut away
by the machinery. Tie accident happen
ed at Greeleyville.
When Frierson was picked up no one
for an instant thought he could live, but
he was at once taken to Foreston and put
under the treatment of Dr.. L. W. Nettles,
who examined the wound. He found all
the upper part of the nasal bone gone;
the flesh and bone of the forehead cut
away and gone; the membrane that GOV.
ers the brain broken, and part of the
brain had been cut away along with the
bone and flesh. 1t was fearful sight.
But the doctor resolved to do all he could
for him. Fever and Inflammation was
prevented. Everything was favorable.
The patient had to be kept on his back
for weeks. Had he turned over on his
face his brains would have fallen out!
Had he had an attack of vomiting it
would have proved fatal. We saw him
several times while in this condition, and
could plainly see the pulsation of the
brain.
For days and weeks he thus stood, bal>
auciug between life and death. But after
a while suppurative granulation set in,
and the parts began to heal. The brain
became sufficiently covered to prevent its
falling out, and Frierson got up and
walked about. He then came to Man.
ming to raise money for the alleged pur.
pose of going to Charleston to get in Che
hospital, as his folks we're too poor to sup
port him, but the Charleston authorities
declined to receive him without pay, and
while here he showed his wound to those
who would look ct it, but it was such a
fearful looking sigbtthat many would not
sec it. Such is a brief resume of this
terrible accident.
Last Saturday we were in Forcston and
saw Frierson. He has for months been
able to 60 at his regular work. Ills face
is somewhat disfgured, the upper part of
his nose being even with the cheeks and
one of his eyes looks bad. But the huge
trench in his forehead has been filled in
by new growth of flesh, SO that one
would never suppose that once bis brain
had poured out there. One or two
small sores in this new flesh remains un.
healed.
1t is wonderful what great vitality
some possess. Not one man in hun.
dted thousand could have stood such q
shock. Frierson may be veil said to
have come "back from the jaws of death,
back from the mouth of hell" 1t is the
most remarkable recovery we ever knew
or heard of.-1lanniag Times.

AVOID DIGREssIoNs,

Nothing is mere deplorable than an

be gone through with speedily, once your
attack begins. It is an attack, always.
No matter how ready-hearted Angela
may be, there is little perfunctory hesi-
fancy, only natural to her modesty and
you must not give her the opportu.
nifty to turn the current of her wooing.
Do not stop to tell her that the Herald is
the only paper you read, or that you don't
owe penny in the world. Information
of this sort you should convey to her long
before you ask the momentous question; /;
it is relevant, no doubt, and may abet
your effort greatly, but yet it is prosaic
and out of keeping just at the moment of
crisis. The more nakedly you con6ne
yourself to declaring your love and ask.
ing her hand, the better Bear in mind
always that proposal partakes of the
nature Of an onslaught; that no matter
how apt and willing your lady love may.
be, she has still maidenly sense OF pre-
servatiou, and you must afford her no OF.
portunity of avoidance, but bind her most
strenuously to the issue. Give her but
the slightest pretext for branching off on
a side issue of controversy, and you will
never pin her to the point.
