COMPREsSIBILITY OF waterfall
recent meeting of the royal society
of Edinburgh, Prof. TAFT showed theo-
reticaIly that water could be COM
pressed to about three-fourths of its
original bulk. Tie compressibility
of sea-water Is 80 of that of fresh
water. If the water of the ocean were
suddenly to become incompressible,
four per cent of the habitabIe land OF
globe would be submerged, because
the mean depth of water would be
increased 116 feet.

EMMA II1CH CONCERT.


The treat of the season took place
/ last Wednesday evening at the Opera
/ House. A fair house greeted this
grandest of all concert singers and
her admirable company. The audi
ence was made up of our most cul-
! tivated and music-loving people. All
the participants are artists and the
audience was completely captivated ;
recalling the performers before the
curtain until forced to give encores.
/ Too much cannot be said of Miss
( Juch; her singing is full of soul, ana
as "Maugueriten in the garden scene
! from Faust, she was all that could be
desired. The part suits her perfectly,
she acts it well, sings it delightfully."-
and looks it to perfection.
Mr.. William LAWN has a sweet
tenor voice, and showed to more adj
vantage in the Duet IA Night in
| Venice than he did as Faust" He
| is a good singer, but his acting was
wanting in expression.
Mr.. Joseph Lynde, as "Mephisto-
pheles," was splendid. He is a good
| actor and has a sweet baritone. We
regret that he did not appear in con-
cert.
! Miss Helene Won Doenhoff, the con-
| traIto, is both a good actor and eX-
cellent singer. She carried the dual
part of Siebel and Martha well, and
/ the audience seemed delighted with
| her performance.
/ Miss Adele Aus Der Ohe, the plan
! ist, certainly has remarkable talent.
! She has wonderful physical powers
and her wrist and finger movement
/ is poem. Her phrasing was always
clear and well emphasized, and in
one number she blended the legato
J 4 ~ 10 OF
/ to perfectioE.
Mr.. Victor Herbert, the accOmpa-
mist, gave q few sweet but difficult
selections on the violOncellO. He is
a master of this instrument and fair
/ ly makes it talk.
We cannot close without giving
"honor to whom honor is due" Mr..
! H. p. Seavy deserves and has the
! thanks of the community for bring
ing such artists here. He is by far
the best Manages our beautiful
/ Opera House has ever had, and we
would be glad to see him take hold OF
/ it again. He has done much for the
pleasure of ColumbIans by bringing
/ such special attractions as this and the
/ people show their appreciation by a
large attendance.
Miss Juch's Concert will be remem-
bered by many as altogether the most
ENJOYABLE evening the Opera House
I has ever afforded. The advanced ad-
mission prices shut out the small boy
and rowdy man, and made an auql-
ence of ladies and gentlemen VINO
1 know how to listen and enjoy so rare
q treat. The evening was as chaste
and elegant as parlOr rehearsal, and
Miss Juch was fitting queen for
such an occasion. Her dress, car
rage, manners, looks and all, gave
j evidence Of a modest nature and
sweet reserve, SO dearly loved, so
rarely found, in public life. Her
clear soft complexion was charming
Iy free from all cosmetics, and beau IT,
full in its unaffected loveliness; her
deed a part of herself, and her voice
BE- a nerfect melody OF sweet sounds.

Jail DeIiYerI.

About two O'Clock Wednesday
night seve.l prisoners made their es-
cape from our county Jail. They were
very quiet about it, being careful not
70 disturb the slumber of any Of their
neighbors; and the way they did it is
Just as easy as falling off Il log, after
you learn how. On the side Of the
cells are narrow windows about wide
enough for a man to get his hand
through the floors of the cells are of
solid rock, twelve inches thick.
Through these windows some kind
friends furnished the material, and on
these floors the jail birds built a fire
when the rocks became very hot they
threw water on them, thereby making
them scale Offand easy to break. 1t
didn't take them long to work through
twelve inches in this way, and they
were free men. The following is a list
of them:
Jim Radcliffe, white, forgery, under
sentence to three years in the Peni-
Tertiary.
Omina Graves, white, assault, serv-
ing sixty day jail sentence.
Jim Brown, colored, assault, wait
ing trial.
under sentence to one year in peni-
JcilIldIJ y
John SowelI, coiored, (tEe same
Johnnie, by the way, who was ambi-
tious to be trustee last August, and
asked the votes of the colOred contin-
GENT was serving Jail sentence for
illicit whisky selling.
James Truelove, white, waiting
trial for larceny.
Tom Powell, colOred, serving jail
sentence for illicit whisky selling.
The last three named, John SOwell,
James TruelOve and Tom Powell, re-
turned Thursday morning and deliv-
cred themselves up. The others are
at large.
Some OF the jurors who were sleep
ing at the Jail say they were up until
after II O'Clock. The jailer says he
was awake an hour after these gen.
tIemen had retired, and heard no un-
usual sounds; so the work mnst have
been done very quietly and quickly.
Arrangements ought to be made to
prevent outside friends from giving
any assistance TO inmates of the jail.
The present construction OF the Jail Is
such that the jailer cannot prevent
this assistance, and therefore he Is In
no sense To blame.

DIR. w. w. Cochran.

After an illness of several weeks,
| DR.. w. w. Cochran died at Owens
bOro, Florida, last Saturday, Feb. %,
at o'clock in the evening. The de-
ceased was Marylander by birth,
! having been born, raised and educa-
ted at Baltimore. When quite n
young man he came to this county to
practice medicine, and remained here
some thirty or forty years. About
| ten years ago he moved to Florida,
where he has been living since. At
the time of his death he was seventy
eight years old. In early life he mar
ried a Miss Ewing, and of that mar
riage he leaves surviving him the
following children: II. b. Cochran,
Jas. A. Cochran, CulleOka; w. +.
Cochran, of Marshall county; Mrs.
w. r. Grisham, of Parks Station.
Later in life he was married to Miss
Lizzie billiard, by whom he had seven
children; among the number being
Mrs. ID. w. Leneave, of this place;
the Others are in Florida.
Mr.. Cochran's life was one of pur-
pose, faith and consistency. He will
be remembered by our older physi-
clans with highest esteem, and our
older citizens with greatest respect.
He was warm in his attachments,
strong i'm his friendships and untiring
i'm his labors of love. BY his efforts,
some twelve years ago, the present
Presbyterian church at Culleoka was
erected. His was a long life we'll
lived, and he but rests from his la
bOrs. To his children, who inherit
his strong attachments and loyal
love, in their sorrow and loss the
community extends a genuine sym
pathy. IA

The Public School Library.

Ever since the organ iZatiOn of the
present system of public schools an
effort has been in progress to build up
good library of wholesome reading
for the children. BY means of benefit
entertainments, book receptions, etc,
the nucleas of such collection had
been laid at both the Andrews build
ing and the colored school but neither
Of them were at all adequate to the
growing demands.
To supply this need, the Board OF
Education AT their last meeting resolv-
ed to appropriate the extra tuition
coming i'm from children who are not
admitted free. The fund on hand
amounts to $173, and will be expended
at once This extra tuition will be a
regular annual fund and will gradual
ly build up school library which
will be an honor to the school system
and to the fathers who had the wis
dom to so set it apart.
Text books are but the skeleton of
an education. The flesh and blood
must come from outer sources of nOur-
ishment, of which wholesome reading
! is the most valuable. One very i'm
portant part of every parent and
teachers duty in the mental training
of u child is to cultivate in him taste
for good reading. What better auXil-
liary than this can there be for the
development OF real manhood and
true womanhoOd. The Board never
did wiser act and Columbia will
reap its good results in years to come

at any time may feel sighted or hurt,
we wish to emphasize a rule of this
office that hereafter will be inviolate.
Hereafter we will not attempt to pub
fish any letter that reaches this Office
later in the week than Tuesday night.
For the reason that it is next to ini-
possible to find place for it in the is
sue of that week, and the week fol-
lowing the news is too old. We hope
our correspondents will write often
and write early, and remember that
this rule is not made in any captiOus
spirit, but because Of a necessity
plain to the management of the HER
AID, though a general public may
not be able to understand it.
If anything OF especial interest oc-
ours too late for your regular letter,
send us postal, giving the facts, and
we will make mention OF it in the

it to the correspondent who sends it.

Last Friday evening, the anniVer-

pupils of the Athen9um had a grand
fancy dress ball in the study hall
half of the young ladies taking the
role of gentlemen. The paper read
before the S. ID. Literary Society,
Saturday evening, gave a full de-

following as being rarely bright:
Among the enchanting entangle-
ments of Kaleidoscope lOVeliness was
the beautiful Miss Helen s., of
Indiana. She was attired in Martha
Washington costume; her eyes were
like precious stones, which reminded
us of shining lightning bugs IN a cas-
ket of jewels.
Miss Kate M, of Tennessee, was
in cerulean blue, enhancing the effect
of her sparkling eyes and piquant eX-
preston.
Miss Rosalie c., of Arkansas, in
n direct0ire gown of pale pink, whose
winning smiles always attract host
of gallants on such occasions.
Following, in her train, came Miss
Emma ID. s., of Tennessee, al
ways the leader in fashions, and who,
upon this occasion, introduced the
inverted "V" neck, worn in the back.
