A copy of "Woford College Journal"
has been handed US by friend, and in
looking over its pages we hnd an article
headed "a Southern Problem" IRON
the pen of F. Earle Bradham Of Claren-
don. This article treats the social con-
ditions in the South in a manner far
superior to the pens OF many editors
who recently tackled the social problem
when the Observation-Disclosures incl
dent brought forth an avalanche OF lit
erarv productions. Mr.. Bradham's pa
per is credit to him and to the lnstl-
tuition which is responsible for his col-
ture. Inasmuch as we intend TO repro
duce this well written paper in ourlcol-
umns, for the purpose of showing what
Clarendon canIproduce, we will refrain
IRON comments other than to say that
we heartily congratulate the young
man for the marked ability displayed,
and we predict for him, knowing his
temperament, brilliant future.

A very sad accident occurred at the
crossing known as Harvin's crossing
near Alcolu, last wednesday afternoon.
While the children were returning
home from school there was a freight
train with passenger coach attached,
stopped at the crossing on public road;
there were number of children, some
went around the train, ond some passed
through by way of the coach, one OF
them 8 child of Mr.. Collins had gotten
upon the step OF the coach when the
moving of the train caused her to
scream for help to be taken of, little
eleven year old Sallie McElveen the
daughter of Mrs. Fannie J. McEiveen,
ran TO her friend to take her of, and as
the little Collins girl jumped, the jerk
caused Sallie to lose her footing and one
Of her legs went under the last wheel OF
the car, cutting it off between the ankle
and kee. The child only remained con-
scious short time and lived about
three hours. We understand that the
railroad authorities have sent represen-
tatiyes to investigate the matter.
