Speaking of kindergartens for color
ed children calls to mind the expert
ence Of "befo' de war; matron who
was teaching one of the little darkies
on her plantation how to spell.
The primer she used was a pictorial
one, and over each word was its ac-
companying picture, and Polly glibly
spelled OK, OK, and box, box, etc. But
the teacher thought that she was max
ing right rapid progress, so she put her
hand over the picture and said:
"Polly, what does Ok spell?"
"Ox," answered Polly nimbly.
GLOW do you know that it spells OK,
Polly?"
"Seed his tail,'' replied the apt Polly.

SUIT AGAINST SOUTHERN.
To ApnuI Ownership of south Carroll
ma and Georgia.

Columbia, S. c.. March In. G. Evans
and Thurmond & Calhoun, representing
Bell & Davis, merchants of Edgefield, filed
a very important suit to-day against the
Southern Railway Company. The case
will test the legal right of the Southern to
the ownership of control of the South Car
DINA and Georgia Railroad BY an act
passed by the South Carolina General As
sembly in 1897 all railroads are prohibited
from purchasing or securing the control
of a competing line, penalty of 800 a day
for every day it operates the said compet-
ing line being imposed. The plaintiffs con-
slider the Southern Railway and the South
Carolina and Georgia Railroad competing
lines, and they so aege and hope to prove
it. If that is done the Southern will have
a very heavy penalty 10 pay.
Suit for $4,000 against the Seaboard Air
Line was begun in Camden to-day by
James L. Brasington. One night on re-
cent visit 10 Columbia, he stepped into
thirty-foot cut, made by the road in en-
tering this city. and injured himself.
