CLEMSON COLLEGE.

lh'. Editor: I SEQ in your issue Of
January 9th suggestion made by
the Greenville News to substitute Cal
houn for Clemson. 1t is said "the
great statesman desired his home 70
become the property Of She State" I
know, personally, that is net so:
1ir. Thos. G. Clemson was, at the
time of the donation, so vilifed by tho
Honorable Legislature and so: many
misstatements made about the gift that
I think true history Of the fact might
be interesting and conclusion reached
to let MIR. Clemson's name so down to
poster;ty as a noble man and an hon
ored son of South Carolina.
Mr.. Clemson married--Miss= s's,ss7'
Calhoun, oldest daughter of Hon. John,
c. Calhoun; but did not receive Fort
ELL as her dover: Mrs. John c.
Calhoun owned Fort Hill after her
husbands death. She sold the prop
erry to her oldest son, Andrew CAL
houn, later, reserVing q home with
him. Mr.. Andrew Calhoun was not
able to meet the payments and Fort
Hill was SODA bona fde sale-to
Mr.. Clemson, and Mrs. Calhoun moved
to Pendleton village to a small home
of her own and Mr.. and Mrs. Clemson
took possession of Fort Hill.
The matter of the disposition Of Fort
Hill was much discussed By Mr.. Glenn
son, and in fact, in letter to Col.
Rion. which have, Mr. clemson laid
Mrs.. Clemson agreed with him that
some disposition ought to be made Of
Fort Hill to preserve it for good. She
favored its being given for educational
purposes.
In Mr. Clemson's first will he had
decided to leave the property to the
State, to be kept up by the State much
in the same manner as Mount Vernon,
with matron and twelve ladies of the
State to act as regents, to keep the OLD
home of John e. Calhoun in perfect
preservation. Mr.. Clemson wor-
shipped his distinguished father-in-
law and lost sight Of his oaOn indirlda-
nAYy in the thought of giving Fort
Hill 10 the State.
However, subsequent to this will,
Mr. Benz Tillman, the honest friend
and well-wisher to the agricultural
in;ere, # the State, visited Mr..
Clemson at Fort Hill and convinced
Nr. Clemson that an agricultural COL
leee was the best disposition of this
property. EIr. Clemson thought a
pozmecknic school was the best, and
Won see that his own idea has finally
been developed by the drift Of progress.
The endowment of handsome capt.
tai from Mr.. Clemson's valuable per-
sonal property of s5o,ooO or more was
Of course to be set off by the State
taking an interest in the matter aud
helping out noble legacy.
Il would be a shame and disgrace
now to change the name of Clemson
College, for Calhoun had no more to
do With the property than the next
man Mrs. Jas. II. Rion.

WOOL MARKET DULL.
Sales Have Been Light, But Prices
Are Firmer.

Boston. Oct. 12.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow:
The past week has been a very dull and
unsatisfactory one. Some negotiations
have been pending which may result in
more business in the course of week or
two, but the actual volume of sales mas
been even smaller than that of the pre-
ceding week. One wool house reports 1hat
it could have done over 100000 worth of
business # it had chosen to come down
in it's asking price, but it declined TO do
So
other instances are cited indicating
the firmness with which wool is generally
held by the trade. although there are
some soft spots where holders have got
more than they can take care of.
What demand there has been has most
l. ran to Ss@l5. washed fleeces at 22G23c,
and territory woods, the former being
used in army goods. Domestic fine woods
have been very quiet, scarcely anything
having been done in this line of stock.
The sales of the week in Boston amount
TO $4,000 pounds domestic and $4,000
pounds foreign, making a total of 100000
against total of 1.543, 900 for the previous
week, and a total of 5.651e00 for the CORE
spending week last year. Sales since
Jan. l. 1898 amount TO ,010 pounds.
against 219,S1S, leo pounds last year at the
same time.

TALE OF SPANISH CRUELTY.
Citizen Imprisoned at Nor
70 For Thirteen Years.


Rockford, Ills, Oct. 12.-Samuel En-
sign, an engineer of the old-time Ra-
cine & Mississippi railroad and a resi-
dent of this city for many years, has
returned, old and broken in health, with
a sad story of Imprisonment and suffer
ing in Cuba. When Ensign left Rock
ford he went to Cuba, where he OBJ
tanned a situation as an engineer in a
sugar refinery. One night Ensign, with
two fellow workmen, resisted an as
sault made upon native woman by
Spanish soldiers. The next morning,
Ensign says, all three were taken pris-
onerS TO Havana, where they We're
placed in MORO castle. One OF the
men died in seven months, and the
other lived two and d half years.
For Is years and five months, Ensign
alleges, he was confined in the castle,
allowed to speak to no one, and only
to walk through a corridor 204 feet
long for recreation. At the expiration of
that time he was taken out to work.
with ball and chain On his ankle, con-
structing a plaza AT that he worked
five years. He became friendly with
the priests and attendants in a neigh
boring monastery, and one night was
spirited away and placed on man-of-
wax that finally landed him in Mexico.
When placed in prison Ensign claims
he had certificates of deposit to the
amount of $4,000 and 81, 600 in money.
none of which was returned to him.

ALLIANCE FRANCO-AMERICAINE.
Lecture Last Evening By Dr.. A.
MuzzarelH.

The lecture of DR.. A. MuzZarelli on
Napoleon and Josephine" was given
before a large and select audience in
the Assembly hall last evening.
Professor Talmage of the University
of Utah presided, and made a few in
troductory remarks, in which he spoke
of the merits of the system of teaching
French as introduced by DR.. Muzzarelli
and the advantages OF so simple and
cheap system.
Dr. Muzzarelli then explained what
the study of French would do for one,
saying that it had ceased to be fash
ionable or merely an accomplishment,
but rather had become a necessity TO
all refined people, lovers of education,
and above all, business people and
clerks.
The Alliance Franco-Americaine of
which DR.. Muzzarelli is a member, is
national association founded for the
propagation of the French language.
and its literature among Americans,
and of English among French. Its cen
trail idea is that of bringing these stud
les within the reach of those who long
for culture, but are deprived Of oppor-
tunity.
Dr. Muzzarelli explained at length
the object and hopes of the promoters
of the institution and gave a brief
sketch of the system employed in
teaching and its superiority over the
old methods.
Mrs. Hamilton followed the opening
remarks of the doctor with a selection
on the large organ that was well re-
ceived, although the effect was par
TALLY lost by an accident to the bellows
occasioning a momentary pause.
The lecture was given with the as
sistance of stereopticon views of Ma
poleon and the members of his family.
The lecturer traced the great Corsican
from his infancy through his many and
rapid advances, showing briefly the
causes that produced the various re-
suits and Interviewing the romance of
Josephine and Napoleon's many great
victories in most interesting manner.
