Electric Light.

Chas. E. Fink, Esq, is making an effort to
furnish the people of Westminster with cleo
trio light. If assurances can be obtained
that 500 lights, of lG candle power each, will
be taken, a local company will be organized
and plant placed here at once. Unless 500
lights arepromised the matter will be dropped.
The Edison Incandescent system will be
used. In this system the wires and the lights
are said to be absolutely harmless. The
prices for stores, Offices, &c. are at the rate
Of GO cents apiece per month for the first
FIVE, SO cents apiece for the next FIVE, 40
cents apiece for the next five and 80 cents
apiece for all over 10 lights In private
houses the prices are 10 cents less apiece per
month than for stores, &C. Nearly every
person who has been approached thus far has
promised 10 use it, and hopes for the success
of the project are entertained by the pro-
moters. Persons desiring to use electric
light can notify Mr.. Fink, stating the number
of lights they may likely use.

The Rush to Europe.

Almost every American who can afford the
time and money to do so spends some portion
of the summer in Europe. Already the ex-
odus for 1891 has begun, and Indications point
to a larger number of tourists than ever before.
Estimating in round numbers, perhaps $780,
600 citizens of the United States will sail over
the ocean this year to various points on the
other side. They will spend u large amount
of money in steamship passage, railroad fares,
hotel bills and purchases abroad. Their ag.
gregate expenses will probably foot up to
something like $3.50, 100000. Surely large
sum to be spent in few months sightseeing
in foreign lands.

Annual Meeting of the Stockholders oil the

[The State, 222nd.

The annual meeting Of the stock
holders of the Columbia, Newberry and
Laurens Railroad was held yesterday
morning in the office OF the President
of the Commercial Bank.
After the transaction of the rountne
business the following board of direc-
tols was elected: H. c. Moselcy, Geo.
S. Mower, M. A. Carlisle, Jas. Wood
row, w. A. Clark, w. H. Lyles, John
r. Sloan, Jr., w. B. Lowrance and u.

After the meeting Of the stockholders
there was held meeting Of the newly
elected board of directors, at which the
following officers were elected : Pres
ident, w. G. Childs; vice-President, H.
c. Moseley attorney, Nj. A: Carlisle !;
secretary and treasurer, T. H. Gibbes.
President Childs said to representa-
tive of the State that the road having
been leased to the South Carolina Rail
way, there was no annual report of the
earnings. The annual reports shows,
however, that the road has been able
to pay the interest on the first mort
gage bonds by the rental from the South
Carolina Railway. The business of the
road has been exceedingly gratifying
and very satisfactory to the lessee:
The condition of the road mas been
found, after an inspection by Receiver
Cham berlain, to be physically far be-
yond their expectations.

A Tribute from q Class-Mate of '37.

To the Editor of the Newberry Her
aid and News: was much shocked
to-day at the announcement Of the
death of my old friend and class-mate,
DR.. O. 3. Mayer, in the Charleston
News and Courier. Our correspond
ence had heen but recently renewed.
saw in stray copy Of one of your
papers a republication Of one his ear
lier contributions TO the history Of the
ancient "Iutch Fork" and wrote to
him prompGly, congratluating him on
his retaining so much of his youthful
spirit in composition, and requesting
copies of any more he might yet pub
lish. To this he replied in his usual
whole-hearted sincerity, and the papers
came regularly. He wrote of how
much pleasure it gave him to see my
familiar handwriting once more, and
recalled many of our youthful expert
ences with the warmth and fervor Of
"Auld lang syne.n He mentioned that
he kept manuscript list Of our class of
'37 in the South Carolina College, and
whenever he knew Of the death of any
member, he would run his pencil
through the names and that very few
were left unscathed. That he found
more than one dot of his pencil oppo-
site my name, as if hesitating whether
to draw the line or not. But it had cs-
capped so far.
Ours was the first class enrolled
under the reorganization with the
Hon. r. W. Barnwell at the head Of
the college. We were graduated, some
fortv-two in number, and, from my
count, the survivors now can be count
ed on the fingers of one hand. Sitting
alphabetically in our class'rooms, three
times day, and only separated by our
mutual friend, Jno. L. Manning, the
three of US became very intimate. In
Mayors case, we could see, through
some peculiarities, that sterling charac-
ter and spotless integrity which distin-
guished him through his long life, and
which boys are not slow in finding out
and appreciating among their associ-
ates.
Twas thrown but little with him in
after life, but from what saw for my
self and learned from others whenever
The opportunity to inquire was afforded
me, knew that "the 10y was father
of the man." and that in his quiet and
unobtrusive way, be was serving his
day and generation as a citizen and
neighbor, good and useful, and that he
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1891-07-23

had attained that highest title known
among men-that Of the "Christian
pentleman.n He was always proud of
his State-the South Carolina of orr
day--and loved his native Newberry
with filial devotion. The publications
he had revised and revived but recent
" were intended to interest and in
struct posterity. Even now based on
traditions and "reminiscences running
back almost to colonial times they have
the charm of antiquity. But
"In far Off summers we ne'er shall see"
how much more will they be priced by
a remote posterity.
He wrote me that he intended to COL
lect them in permanent book form, and
I really hope his fellow-citizens OF such
long standing will see to it that his
purpose is carried out. For more than
fifty years-half a century Of profess
sional life-he has walked the streets Of
his much-loved town, a living epistle
known and read of by all men, and
now that his voice is silent, his genial
nature should yet survive in his writ
ings, permanently preserved.
