An Important Decision.

RICHMOND, Va, March l9.-In the
Supreme Court of Appeals to-day in
the case of the Piedmont Club vs.. city
of Lynchhurg, the Judgment of the
city court was reversed. This organi-
zation was fined for selling liquor
without a license. An appeal was
taken, and the Court decided that any
bona fde club had the right to dis
pense liquor to its members without
the payment of license.
A correspondent writing to the At.
lanta Constitution from Pensacola,
Fla, says that the yearly consump-
ton of timber is something appalling.
There is little left on the water courses,
and logging railroads are pushed into
the interior to supply the demand.
Old lumbermen say that in twenty
years there will not be tree left.
Pittsburg and Allegheny are in the
grip of La Grippe, the deaths num-
bering nearly 5000.

THE INDUSTRIAL COLLEGE FOR WOMEN
Let Abbeville Bid for It...The Della
Howe Estate.

The circular of the Commission to investi-
gate the matter OF locating and establishing
\ State Industrial School for Women will be
found of public interest. The value to any
town of such On institution Is not to be COM
puted in dollars and cents. Let US then be up
and doirS.
If the proper order is taken at court author.
izing the Trustees TO do so, they could offer
the Della Howe estate, (sl5 900 in money. and
200 acres of land.) to the State on terms sim.
liar to those on which the Clemson estate was
accepted by the State The Industrial School
Is in easy reach Of Abbeville. 1t Is only ne
cessary to make Slight effort, and the prize
will be ours.
Very many persons have talked Of late OF
the necessity Of good school facilities for Alb.
beville.
II 1t were necessary to supplement the Della
Howe estate with few thousand dollars 1t
would be we'll for us to make the additional
subscription.
If Abbeville has a public spirited citizen
who really desires the prosperity OF the town.
we believe that he can secure the school by
merely asking for 1t.
1t may be that some Of our citizens may ob.
iect to the school because 1t Is to be establish
ed by the Tlllman administration. But dis
position to sulk, and stand back when rich
Gifts are TO be given out, Is not advisable.
even under the Tilman administration.
Let one Of our lawyers file his application
for an order Of court allowing the Della Howe
estate to be offered to the State, and let every
citizen having the best Interest OF the town
at heart look into this matter.

Next Week.

We will publish next week list Of the good
people who show just appreciation or the
best interests of themselves and their families.
The list will include the names of all persons
who wisely subscribe for such newspapers as
will best subserve the moral and intellectual
training of their children, while aftording
the whole household the largest amount ol
pleasure for the least expenditure of money
We hazard nothing in saying, that the char
acter and standing of the persons composing
that list will rank high above the average cit
izen, even in q County like Abbeville.
Knowingas we do that there are others whose
ambition, and whose pride in the pleasure and
welfare OF their children, entitle them 10 en-
ROLL their names on our list we cordially In
yite them to come forward at once, and do
that which will, for the least effort. Yield the
largest returns in the moral and intellectual
training of their families.
AS parents should blush TO acknowledge
that they did not patronize the schools, SO IL
Is reflection on the ambition and character
OF the head of the household 10 refuse 10
subscribe for newspapers.
In saying this we are not speaking alone
for the Press and Banner, but we speak OF
newspapers generally, and the local papers In
particular. If a citizen prefers to subscribe
for the Medium we would be glad for him 10
do so. 1t Is only selfinterest that makes US
prefer that he subscribe for the Press and Ban
ner. But let the choice be as it may, every
citizen Of Abbevlle county should taRe at
least one of the local papers.
While quite q number have already aVailed
themselves Of the occasion to have thelr
names entered upon the roll of which we are
so proud, we feel quite sure that there are
still others whose names should appear with
our list of subscribers to the Press and Ban
ner.
Let each subscriber see if he cannot induce
his borrower to become q subscriber, and then
send the name Immediately.
Hand in the names at once, as we VIII pub
lish the list next week.

CoIumbia's Centennial.

With due and proper respect for the opin.
ions of our beloved Columbia correspondent
we are not impressed with the force of his ar
gument or the necessity for our having an
arch at the Columbia Centennial.
IfAbbev!lle should celebrate her centennial
in about ten years from now, We think II
yery likely that Richland would send nc
crowns nor arches to us.
We hope that the centennial celebration at
Columbia may be a success, but 1t Is Column
bias not Abbeville's, show.
We join our brethren in heart and In good
will, and 1t would be great pleasure to us II
we could participate In the festivities and
pleasures OF the occasion, but If we 60 we Will
20 as guests, and not as hosts.

The Sumter Watchman and SOuthrOn.

We dropped in on our old friend Editor Os-
teen of the Watchman and Southron one
night last week. He had just finished print
ing and mailing the weeks edition Of his e1'
ceIlent paper, which deserves to be liberally
supported by the people. Mr.. Osteen Is a hard
worker and constant worker. BY industry
and push he has built up good business, and
the business has enabled him to buy desira'
BILE house and lot for his printing office, being
now one OF the few South Carolina printers
who owns his place Of business. He also owns
an eligible lot on which is a splendid dwell
ing house.
Not satisfied with all thls.h he Is prospecting
for a cylinder press on which to print his pa
per. Success to him. He deserves we'll at the
hands of the people Of Sumter.

arch OF evergreens, from the apex OF which
hung banners with the legends, In letters OF
gold: :" Lift up your Heads, 0,ye Gates !" and
" And the King Of Glory shall come In ~

the choicest flowers. The pulpit and the
reading desk were surrounded with the dark,
glossy leaves and snow-whlte cups OF the

grey moss. The altar table was also most
beautifully decorated.
