1t is not generally known that an Or
ange hit in the exact center by rifle
ball will vanish at once from sight.
Such, however. is the fact. Shooting
it through the center scatters it in such
infinitesimal pieces that it is at once
lost to sight.

SOMETHING NEW.

The new school known as the
Orangeburg Collegiate Institute,
located at Orangeburg, S. c., will
open Sept. 26th. The trustees have
secured seven graduate teachers
and can now accommodate two or
three hundred pupils. There will
be Literary, Business, Music, Art,
Normal and Military Departments.
The Institute will be co-educa-
tional, welcoming both boys and
girls. Two large dormitories will
afford ample room for all boarders,
one being for boys, The other for
girls. The plan for boarding is the
cooperative one, board being put
at cost, which will be about $5'a
month. Our motto is "The best
possible school at the least possi-
Bile cost" Our course is compre-
hensive, thorough, and cheap. This
is a Baptist school but all are well
come. We purpose making the
school SO cheap that the great farm
ing and industrial classes can edu-
cate their children here. The girls
boarding department is limited to
75, and is being rapidly filledup-
first applicants get thsse special
privileges. For further informa-

To Our Friends And
Customers.

Our Fall and Winter Stock of
Goods is opened. We have the
largest stock that we have ever
shown, and the cheapest line of
goods that we have ever bought.
While there is a tendency for goods
to advance and we believe that
they will go higher, yet we have a
very large stock, that we have
bought exceedingly cheap and we
are going to give our customers the
benefit of the bargains that we
have secured. 1t is O waste of
both time and money to go to Au-
gusta to buy goods, when you can
get them just as cheap from us,
especially when we can show you
stock, SO large and attractive /;
therefore we hope you will give us
an opportunity to show you our
goods before you go to Angus
ta. We do not wish you to buy
from US unless we can do just rs
well for you as Augusta.

THE CONVENTION AD-
JOURNS.

On Friday lasC Inc ConVentlou
adjourned to re-assemble on Tues
day the 18th instant. The rea-
sons and excuses given for this
adjournment are not satisfactory
and there is in them more of poll
tics than anything else.
Of the Is articles that the con-
vention is expected to adopt five
are complete as follows:
1. Or executive department.
2. On impeachments.
8. On municipal corporations
and police regulations.
4. On amendment and revision
Of the Constitution.
5. On miscellaneous.
The sixth article on legislative
dep artment is also almost finish
ed, the matter of the homestead
5 exemptions under this head has
not as yet been taken up and will
probably involve long discussion
CHANGES MADE.
Of the articles adopted one I'M
portant change is that which gives
to the Governor the right to re-
move or suspend dishonest Off
!cials provided the grand jury has
rendered true bills upon their
indictment. To this article there
can be no sound objection urged.
The article which prohibits the
opening of bar rooms il this State
will also meet,with general ap-
proval. This clause does not in
corporate the dispensary system
in the constitution but does for
bids the opening of saloons in this
State. certainly a step forward
and in the right direction.
Another change is the meeting
of the legislature in January of
each year instead of November.
For this change the reasons are
not the best, but it is not mat
ter of a paramount consequence.
Of course many of the features
and the same phraseology of the
old constitution have been re-
adopted yet it will be when finish
ed quite a different one in many
respects not enumerated here, for
there are yet ten articles to be
added to the five adopted. Of
these, in the language of one of the
daily papers, four are "all loaded
to the muzzle with dynamite"
On right of suffrage.
On finances and taxation.
On education.
On judicial department.
