birthday Of Miss Nellie Bell. Qnite q
number Of her many friends gathered

THE CANTATA.
A most unique and pleasing enter.
taInment was given last evening at
Charming hall. The first part Of the
program consisted of piano and vocal
solos by Mrs. w. A. Danton's pupils,
who did admirably we'll and reflected
great credit on her. The second part
of the program was beautiful cantata,
entitled "Grandpa's birthday" The
cantata was exceedingly good, every
thing dove-tailing together as natural
as life. The characters were imperson-
ated In perfect style, and Miss Anna
Strong played little Maud as good and
as perfect as any one could. She spoke
her words clear and distinct and with
much feeling, and her little solo called
forth great applause.
George ban sung his little solo with
much feeling aud effect. Miss Oracle
Rineman, as May, was very winning
aud played her part well. In fact all
the characters were well taken and it
would be an exceedingly difficult mat
ter to flnd a more talented and better
trained company. Much credit is due
Mrs. Denton and Carl Denton for their
untiring work in training and bring
ing out the Cantata in so perfect a
manner. The entertainment YVES
given for the benefit of the church.
There is demand to have the enter
tainment reproduced.

Rice in the Piedmont.

Mr.. G. a.. Smith, who lives FIVE
miles southwest Of Yorkville. is one of
those farmers who last year expert
mented with rice culture. He made a
success Of it. From Mr.. Robert Con-
rad, be bought FIVE quarts of seed,
which be sowed on one quarter Of an
acre. The yield was twenty bushels,
or at the rate. of eighty bushels to the
acre. Mr.. Smith was in the Enquirer
Office last Monday, and told the story
of his experiment as follows :
II first selected a level piece Of bot
tom land, which measured a little less
than a quarter Of an acre. After
broadcastiug stable anu over the
patch, I broke it up and pulverized it
thoroughly with a disk harrow. Next,
about the 1ss Of April, I sowed the
rice. just as I would wheat or oats.
Then I built a dam and flooded the
patch. allowing the water to remain on
until the rice began to sprout. After
the rice sprouted, I then let the water
off and kept the place dry until the rice
vas about four or FIVE inches high.
The weeds were from two to three
inches higher. Ilet the water on again
about up to the first barrel Of the ~ice.
Within four or five days the weeds and
grass began to turn red and die. 10
less than ten days more. the rice was
high enough to allow the weeds and
grass to be entirely covered with water.
Soon after this was done, the weeds and
grass died. I let the water off and
turned it on once or twice more during
the growing season as l thought the rice
seemed to require. As the rice began
to ripen. l let the patch become
thoroughly dry, and when harvest
came, it was in first rate condition for
handling"
Mr.. Smith also inform us that he
sowed some rice on a piece Of upland,
and that it made ! pretty fair crop. It
was sowed abb IKE wheat and re.
quired no more attention than sorghum
cane He says that he has been using
home-raised rice on his table ever since
last summer. and still has plenty to
spare.-Yorkville Enquirer.

Crime and Education.

1t is an interesting question to see
what effect education has on crime. Il
has been shown from the last census
that with the education of the negro
crime has rapidly increased. This is
true. And yet crime is about as great
iu Massachusetts as it is in South Caro-
lima. In the former illiterates con-
stitute but 3.3 of the per ceutage of
population who cannot read, while
in South Carolina they amour to 1872
per cent, or nearly one-half of the,
population.
The Baltimore Herald noting this,
close record as to crime in the two.
States. says this:
'tIt is reasonable to suppose that the
| proportion had not greatly varied in
1890. aud yet the census of that year
showed that the percentage of criminals
in the penitentiaries and county Jail to
population was almost exactly the same,
there being a difference Of only Ito
per cent. A similar state has been
observed in Illinois aud Missouri,
where the difference in percentage Of
those unable to read was 40 in favor
Of Illinois, with 578 more convicts
than Missouri had"
Ia the penitentiaries of the South, of
the thousands of convicts, much more
than half are of the class that have
come to manhood under freedom, and
can read. Education has rot proved,
in either the South or the North, a
preventive or cure Of crime. The
only cure for crime is moral teaching.
Unless men can be changed in their
hearts and be made t'new creatures in
Christ Jesus" there is no chance for
radical changes of life and character.
The training Of the mind possesses no
transforming power for criminals or
for sinners generally. The training
of the soul. of the moral nature, is the
only remedy for the suppression of
crime. We have no confidence in
ball kicking as a moral elevator and
reformer. If We had, we would insist
that all the criminals in the peni-
tentiaries, reformatories and jails be
put to ball kicking early and late and
all the year r~ouud.-Wilmington Mes
senger.

The Collector plan suggested as a
solution to the convention calling en-
tanglement is this. The farmers meet
at each county court house, elect one
delegate. These delegates meet in
Columbia and decide where the much
talked of convention shall he held.
This takes it out of the power of any
one man to call a convention and
practically deposes Shell as President
Of the State Farmers Association,
which position would have given him
the power to call the convention.
The plan is clearly Tillman's, though
it purports to be the suggestion Of the
farmers, and is in the effort of peace
and unity. W. venture the assertion,
however, that the petty quarrels
among the Refawmers have by now
assumed such proportions that they
cannot be so easily bealed.-Fair6eld
Herald.

The following document speaks

Clerks office with the papers in
the CASE of Ralph f. Foster vs..
Captain FL. NJ Hayward, aud is
addressed to Judge Whiting, who
presided at the trial of the case:
"The undersigned, composing
the jury that rendered verdict for
def5hdent in the suit of Ralph r.
Foster vs.. Captain IL. NJ Hayward
on the I'd inst, deem it a matter of
justice that we now make to you
the following statement
The suit was an action for de-
famation of character, based on the
charge that Captain Hayward had
made statements rejecting on the
character of Miss Foster, the plain
tiff's adopted daughter, and her
relations with the plaintiff. The
jury found that the defendant did
not make the defamatory State
ments. That was the only ques-
ton before us, and we thought we
had no right to add anything else
to the verdict. But we desire to
hereby express our unanimous
opinion that absolutely nothing APP
peared at the trial to show that
there is or has been anything
wrong in the relations between the
plaintiff and his adopted daughter
on the contrary, the question was
not raised at all, as both Captain
Hayward and his counsel expressly
stated that they raised no question
as to the good character of Miss
Foster"

sHERIFF.cRAM's STATEMENT.
He Gives the Facts in Regard to Recent
Statements About Prawda and the JAN
Management

TO the Editor Of the Press:
The statements in the Argus concern
ing Prawda are, to say the least, mis-
leading, and should be corrected. Sher-
iff Cram is responsible for the sate-keep-
ing OF the prisoners, and the deputies
have nothing to do with the management
OF the Jail. He believes that his turn
key, Grover, is conscientious, uprlgnt'
intelligent man, and manages the analrs
inside the Jail properly and well; SO
well, in fact, that the jail commission
ers have repeatedly expressed their APP
probationsof the condition of things IN
and about the Jail on the occasion OF
their visits which are frequent ana al
ways unexpected never being announced
in advance
There is no murderer's cell in the east
wing or west wing nor is there any
rule in relation to the confinement Oh
murderers in any particular place IN the
jail known to the sheriff Prawda has
been treated with no more severity or
leniency than any Other prisoner con-
victed of a high crime. He had had his
liberty in the corridors at stated times
until through the connivance OF some o
the other prisoners he thought he saw
an opportunity to escape. his plans
were known by the turnkey some time
before he became aware OF 1T, as also
certain other facts in connection there
with which will be given to the public
at the proper time.
Since his transfer from his old place
of confinement he has been sick a part
of the time and has had proper care and
medical attendance and Will receive
such care and attention as humanity
dictates while he remains In jail. An
other so-called newspaper complains tnat
a prisoner sent here sick with an injury
to the head eviden tly caused by a blow
of some kind did not have any medical
attendance till a physician was sent
here by his sister wien it was too late.
The Jail physician makes daily examl-
nation of the condition of the prisoners
at the Jail and attends the sick in 9
proper manner, in this particular case
calling several times each dayaand pay
ing particular attention to it.
The fact that physician is employed
BIS the county to attend the prisoners
in Jail, and that he makes his visits al
least daily, is reported annually Dy the
comfy commissioners, and is SO well
known about town that the circulation
of such report as that mentioned must
be inspired byssheer maligrity.
The prisoners are as we'll fed and re-
ceive as good treatment, medical anC
otherwise, as the dictates of common
humanity and the circumstances Will
permit and..resort is made to punishment,
for bad behavior only when discipline
actually demandssit.
