THE woMEN's COLLEGE.

supcrintendent Neal Intends to Com
picte th9 Building and Have IL
Ready in September Next.
Every body in the State is now very
much interested in the completion Of
the Winthrop Normal and Industrial
College at Rock Hill, and arc anxious
to 500 it's doors thrown open to the
young women OF the State by next
September. AS all know, at the last
session Of the Legislature an act was
passed providing for the economical
completion OF the buildings. Only a
short time ago the board decided to
have the work completed by Super
intendent Neal OF tho penitentiary
with convict labor, and on Monday last
the Trustees formally turned over the
buildings and all materials on hand to
Col. Meal. The following "details of
Col. Meals plans taken from the Rock
Hill Herald, will be read with interest,
and irGicates that Col. Neal is starting
out W III the determination to complete
tho bVildings on time. Tho Rock Hill
Hera says:
"W e had some difficulty in ascer-
tanning what the committee did during
the day and it seems that it really did
nothGIny but go over tho grounds aud
buildings on an inspecting tour with
Superintendent Neal of the peniten-
tiasfy, who, under tho law, if he under.
takes to complete the buildings, is
required to assure the State Treasurer
that ho can finish tho work now in
Band, i. O., the main building, tho north
, side domitory, the power house,
I Kitchen and laundry, with the $40, 900
Appropriated for that purpose, before
]any part OF the apr opriation will be
available.
From Information in his possession
| Col. Neal felt that no could make such
q guarantee to the State Treasurer
| and 80 stated to tho committee, when
over to him and he is now in control.
Col. Neal was before tho committee
| for several hours.
After the adjournment OF the com
| mittee Mt ll:30 O'Clock Monday night
VIC hurriedly interviewed Col. Neal as
| to his plans. He informed us that he
\ had appointed Messrs. w. I'll. Stewart
tSnd james Smith to take charge Of the
york and had given them instructions
Whatc so do. He also stated that an ef-
fort would be Iaade to resume work
next week, and proparatory to this he
would sond up Saturday from the pom
itentiary % convict carpenters, brick
masons, and plasterers, somo of whom
are excellent wOrkmen. At the same
time he would remove 45 of the pre-
sent convict force to Columbia and
leave 40 at the stockade. Mr.. Men
denhall and his force OF guards, will
be continued here. The convict force
will be boarded and the guards paid
out of the 'penitentiary saSings. That
| has not been done heretofore.
"Col. Neal believes he will ho able
to complete the buildings as designed.
by September, but in order to do this
he will employ small force OF skilled
workmen, at greatly reduced wages,
| however,"

food at half the cost he got it twenty
years ago. He now buys his store
goods at one half the price he paid a
few years ago. BE now need pay out
nothing for corn and meat for his
family or his hands, consequently will
pay out less for wages than ever before.
So that at the end of the year q larger
percentage than ever before of the
proceeds of his crop will be left as
cash in hand. A careful study of the
situation leads to the opinion that the
planter is as well, even better able, to
buy fertilizers than ever before, pro-
vided, of course, that he raises his corn
and meat. Also, that il present low
prices hold the competition of foreign
cotton growers may decrease and dis
appear. While the planter may not
formulate the above facts in the same
way they presented here, he is con-
versant with most OF them and is laying
out his business for the year, and will
plant as much cotton as he can, and
use fertilizer upon it, aftor having ar
ranged to raise his years supply OF
meat, corn and syrup"

He Declines to Make u Public State
mcnt ofPrivate and Personal Mat
ters.
EDGEFIELD, Jan, 16.-When several
newspaper men called on Capt. James
II. Tillman at his office to-day he was
asked If he had any corrections to offer
or any statement to make relative to
the shooting ARRAY between himself
aud Mr.. B. B. Evans, as appeared in
newspapers, he repRied " trust you
will report what l say, just exactly as
say it. So faras making statement
is concerned, [ have up to this time
refused such request and must decline
now. [ do not propose to concern the
public with any statement OF mine
about purely private and personal
matter. There is moro satisfactory
method OF settling such differences
than resorting to the public press.
However, in reference to tho note men,
toned in the newspapers as being the
cause Of the trouble, there is this cor
rcction to be made. | have never
obligated myself to Mr.. b. B. Evans
nor TO any OF tho Evans name, by Civ
ing him or any OF theml my note.
NOW, to give the cause of the trou-
bio and an account of the shooting
would make a long and tedious story
nnG besides, from what / am informed
Of tho version given by the Evans
brothers, my own statement would
have to differ very, very widely from
it. dare say each of US thought we
were in the right but OF course some
one of us must have been in tho wrong,
but who it was it would hardly be pro-
per for me to say. The people OF
Edgoleld know all tho facts and what
ever account they may give, will, am
surc, be correct one"

A STORY OF LINCOLN The First
Corps, commanded by Gen. Reynolds,
was reviewed by the President on a
beautiful plain at the mouth of the
Potomac crock, about eight miles from
Hooker's headquarters. We rode
hither in an ambulance over u rough
corduroy road, and, as we passed over
some of the more difficult portions OF
the jolting way, the ambulance driver,
who sat Well In front, occasionally let
ffy,a volley of suppressed oaths at his
wild team of six mules Finally, MIR.
Lincoln, leaning forward, touched the
man on the shoplder and said
"Excuse me, my friend, are you an
Episcopalian 2" 49,, ,o,,
The man, greatly startled, looked
round and replied
mo, MIR. President; am MGtho-
dist"
"Well," said Lincoln, 81 thought
you must be- an Episcopalian, because
you swear just like Gov. Seward, who
Is church warden" The driver
swore no more.
