clemson COLLEGE. Dec. 5, 1895.

Clemson College. Dec. 5, 1895.
Dear Sir: For several weeks past
sporadic cases of measles have ap-
peared among cadets By prompt
isolation the surgeon has hoped to
hold the disease in check, but, in
spite OF every precaution, the trouble
has become epidemic, l2 cadets, a
number of children, servants and
others being now under treatment.
AS more than half of the cadets have
never had measles and as all have
been exposed both here and at At
lanta, the faculty, in view of the
probability that at least half Of the
corps will be sick by the middle of
next week, has decided TO close COL
lege Dec 5, instead of Dec. 10, the
time appointed by the board of trus-
tees.
The advisabiIity OF this action will
become apparent for the following
reasons:
l The work of the year is pract;
cally finished.
2. Under the circumstances not
much satisfactory work could be
done during the next two weeks, and
probably half of the cadets would be
compelled to miss examinations on
account of illness.
8. The hospits would not hold all
the sick and many cadets would be
confined to the barracks, where it
would be difficult to give proper
treatment and attention.
4 To have sent home cadets who
had not had measles and to have con-
tinued with the rest would have
worked much confusion inasmuch as
cadets who had gone home would
have been put to the disadvantage of
standing examinations in the spring
before passing into higher classes.
For these and other reasons, the
faculty, advised by the president of
the board, decided on Monday to
hold examinations with ali possible
dispatch in order to permit cadets to
go home Thursday. Thus nearly all
will stand the examinations and will
be ready for work at the commence
ment of next term.
Very truly,
E. B. CRAIGHEAD.

THE WATCH PRESENTED.

Mr.. Bellinger here presented the
handsome gold watch, costing $500,
to the President. Engraved in the
watch are the words: "Constltution-
al Convention, 1895. John Gary
Evans, President In making the
presentation, he said
Mr.. President /: Our WORK performed.
the time has arrived when our official
relations are to be severed for all time.
The abors of US all during the long

and exacriug. but your position has en-
tailed apon you duties peculiarly try

congratulate you upon proving your

In separating from you We desire to

A WATCH FOR THE GovERNDR.

Mr. Belihger announced that the
Convention had purchased watch
for the President, and he moved that
the chair appoint a committee to
present it to him. The chair appoint
ed Messrs. Bellinger, Breazeale and
Buist. Before they performed their
pleasing duty, Mr. MCGOWAN moved
that the thanks of the Convention be
rendered to the citizens of Columbia
for the banquet. This was seconded
by Messrs Smith of Laurens, Burn,
Haynswortl, "Layman" McWhite,
private Sigh, Barry and Thinner
man, and was adopted
On motion of Mr. Otis, the Con-
vention extended it's thanks to the
press for reports Of the proceedings.
The committee on the whole then
arose, and President Evans again
assumed the chair.
Mr.. Johnstone, in retiring, said
that as chairman of the committee on
the whole the pleasant duty devolved
on him Of presenting the resolutions

GOVERNOR EVANS RESPONSE.

Governor Evans was visibly affected
by the evidence of appreciation and re-
spouded as follows:
Gentlemen of the Convention
There are times and places and cir.
cumstaDces that bring the hearts of
men together, when outside chickering's,
when dissensious, when animosities
are forgotten and where hearts that
were once divided became united and
beat for one body I feel that this Con-
vention. representing the sovereignty
of South Carolina, rests in that condi-
ton. 1t has been the cherished hope
of most of US that this Convention
would be the means of framing a law
around which S. b Csrolinians could
unite, around which divided people
could unite and around which they could
bury past difference feel that has
been accomplished. (Applause.I We

MIR. G. D. TILLMAN.

Mr.. Burn said that there was ven.
erabie statesman whose voice we would
like to hear once more. He referred
to Mr.. G.. D. Tillman. There were
loud calls for Mr.. Tillman, who :"
arising, said be had oeen taken absc

been called on in such complimentary
manner he felt called upon to say some
thing. He said this Constitution was

He said he perhaps should speak on
national politics. He was satisfied that
the silver question would supersede the
nigger question. 1t was silver that
saved US from more reconstruction here
than we got, and it was the siver ques-
:ion which prevented the Infamous
Force Bill iu 1890. He expressed
surprise that when that bill was up, the
people of this State were divided and
didn't seem to realize their danger.
He believed the silver question would
