This is from the bodies counted and

The first town entered by Mooshir
was Shinik. 1t contains four villages,
Shinik, Mezera, koojock and Dopy.

of the leading townsmen went to meet
him to have mercy upon them. They
were surrounded by soldiers long be

and every one was killed. Their
bodies were put in the church and
burned. Then they proceeded to burn
the villages. The number killed from
Shinik proper number 623, and 3l7
from the rest of the villages. Those
who escaped are now in the villages
surrounding this town, but the villag-

A Good Law.

At the last session of the Legislature
bill, introduced by Senator Byrd was
passed and became law, which bore
the simple title ITO provide for the
teaching of physiology and hygiene in
the public schools" Those who were
reporting the State Legislature did not
even think this little bill of sufficient
consequence to read it through, but
| the body of it is something entirely DIFF
ferent from what the title would con-
vey. 1t means the Introduction into
the public school system Of the educa-
ton of the young as to the effects of
liquor drinking. In other words, the
children are to be taught that drink
ing is dangerous before they are able
TO read for themselves This act is a
very stringent one in its provisions
and therefore time has been allowed
to get the necessary books rsady. The
Woman's Christian Temperance I'm
ion will doubtless see that the law IS
enforced to the letter when 1t becomes
effective next fall.
The act provides That the nature of
alcoholic drinks and narcotics as to
their effects upon the human system,
in connection with the several divis-
ions of the subject of physiology and
hygiene, shall be included in the
branches of study taught in common
or public schools in the State of South
Carolina, and shall be studied and
taught as thoroughly and in the same
manner as other like branches are in
said schools. by the use of text books
in the han;,s of pupils where other
branches are thus studied in said
schools. and orally in the case of pu-
pills unable to read; and shall be
taught by all teachers and studied by
all pupils in all said schools supported
wholly or in part by public money.
Sec. 2. That the text books used for
the instruction required to be given
by the preceding section in primary
and intermediate grades shall give at
least one fourth of their space to the
consideration of the nature and effect
ofalcoholic drinks and narcotics; and
the books used in hehighest grades of
GRADED schools shall contain at least
twenty pages of matterreIatlng to this
subject.
Sec. 8. That it shall be the duty of
the proper officers IN control OF any
school described in the foregoing sec
tioasto enforce the provisions OF this
act and any such officer, school dlrec-
tor. commissioner, superintendent or
teacher who shall refuse or neglect to

President of Winthrop College.

COLUMBIA, S. c.. Feb. 22:-Tuesday
night at q meeting of the Board OF
Trustees of the South Carolina Indus
trial and Winthrop Normal College,
Professor d. 3. Johnson was elected
President by a unanimous vote. The
opposition to him, which was predict
ed did not develop twas generally
believed that he would be elected.
Nevertheless. such a vote was a hand
some compliment. The two things
tha. weighed most with the Board
were his executive ability and his in
tiuence with Northern educators, es-
pecially the Trustees of the Peabody
Fund, to which the College looks for
aid. Professor Johnson has been
twelve years Superintendent of the
City Schools and nine years President
of tie Winthrop Normal College, for
whose more extended work he has
been selected. Professor johnson was
born in Lagrange, Tenn, January 10,
1856. where his father was founder

of \. B. at the University of Tennes-
see, Knoxville, Tenn. in 1877, with

the senior captaincy of his battalion.
Immediately after graduation he was
elected assistant principal OF, the
Knoxville High School, in which
position lie served ten years, when he
was elected assistant professor OF
mathematics in his alma mater. La

VI. by the University Of Tennessee.
The young ladies Of the Winthrop

Burned 20 Death.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Feb. pa
special to the Advertiser from Gads-
den, Ala, tells of two people being
burned to death. Mrs. Mary Burton
was discovered by two of her children
lying On the floor, her head and shoul-
ders lying in the fire and her entire
body erveloped in flames. Mrs. Bur
ton was subject to epileptic fits, and it
is thought that she was attacked
while sweeping and fell in the fire. a
small child Of Katie Fitzgerald fell into
the fire and its head was so badly
burned as to cause its death.

FIR. Bedras was soldier, too, and en-
couraged his children, and when he
was at last killed his body was cut in
pieces and given to the dogs.
Alpag was the last town that the
bloodthirsty tyrants visited, and this
place contains eight villages-Verient,
Chaden, Moodavar, Eukik, Kalaxaz.
Choroop, and Davlorig. The people
had for the most part made their es-
cape, but when Mooshir and his sol6i-
ers went their way 1900 bodies were
found even here. Many more were
burned, but their number cannot be
known.
All bodies were left where they were
butchered and those who would travel
this district must risk their lives
through the pestilential odors that go
up from so many dead. All who es
capped from the Sassoun district came
to the villages and plains of Moosh,
and hungry, destitute and broken
hearted, they look for hope and help
and sympathy from the civilized world
to whom the news of their terrible lot
may come.
