Colorado, who has been visiting Berlin In
the interest of pime metallism, has left very
favorable i'm preston here with all OF the
officials, fnanciers and others with whom

international monetary conference.
In his interview with Prince Hohen-

BOSTON, MASS, Feb. 21.-The British
steamer Gaiilee, which arrived to- day from
London, made an unsuccessful attempt to
tow the disabled German tank steamer
Diamant into the port of Halifax, n. S.
The captain of the Galilee reports that he
sighted the Diamant February 10 in lati-
tude AZ ~, longitude 1914 west. The
latter had lost her propeller and signaled
for assistance. The Galilee took the dis
abled vessel in tow. but in latitude 4S II,
longitude 1913, about 8 O'Clock on Febru-
ary II in the morning. during severe gale,
the hawsers parted and the Diamant dis
appeared from view. As the disabled
steamer was proceeding badly the officers
of the Galilee fear she has capsized. A
large portion of the Galilee's permanent
port cattle fittings was lost overheard dur
ing the gale.
After losing the Diamant the Galilee re-
mained about the spot eighteen hours, but
could get no sight of the missing vessel.
Signals were burned during the night but
no answers were seen. The Galilee towed
the Diamant about sixty miles. The latter
vessel was bound from Bremerhaven for
New York or Philadelphia. She carried
a crew of thirty-five men.

HOnea Path and WiIliamstou.

Both propositions to make new coun-
ties-the n Honea Path end the other
Mllllamston, were defeated in the cleo
lions On Saturday last. Our interest lay
IN the contest to carve Oh parts of Sulli-
van and Waterloo townships for IIonea
Path. We are not surprised, and graft
ned at the result, We think it best for
all concerned. Laurens is a compact
county, growing in property, and in the
near future, promising to be in the
front rank materially, as she is now
abreast OF any eduoationaily and
morally. As to the matter of conven-
fence to a few citizens, as the old coun-
ties are laid OF geographically ii cannot
happen that every locality can be
brought within n stones throw oil a
Court House. Our Lau.ens friends
and %neighbors in Sullivan and Waterloo
must certainly be content with a large
majority against the proposition. Let
MS be a unit for the steady develope-
uent OF the old county in all that con.
s~titutes worth or greatness.
