500 Students for Clemson College.

Clemson. College, August 25.-Qulet
reigns on the hill once more since the
Farmers Institute has closed. All eyes
are now turned to the opening of the col.
lege on September 10th, as the next i'm
portant event.
Over 500 students have been accepted
and other applications are still coming in.
The Indications are that the institution
will be taxed to its full capacity. The
studonts are expected to report on the
evening of the 9th of September, as the
regular college exercises will begin on
the 10th.
There is much speculation as to who
the new president will be. Scores of
names are mentioned, but the trustees
have everybody guessing. They meet on
August 10Th to elect. Meanwhile Col.
M. b. Hardin, as acting president, is
managing the affairs of the college with
marked ability.
The old students have determined to
give the now different kind of welcome
this year. 1t will be in the form of a
public reception instead of the old-time
midnight "paddling," and the unan-
nounced turning over" etc. The ladies
of the campus have taken lively interest
in this new plan and will lend their pres
ence and help in the way of refreshments.

David B. Hill to the Farmers.

Albion, N. Y, August 25.-Forme,
Governor David B. Hill spoke to crowd
of 5000 persons at the Orleans county
pioneer picnic, at Oak Orchard to-day.
The speech was a general one, Mr.. Hill
saying he thought it poor taste to inject
politics at such time. Addressing him.
self to farmers, he referred to their oour-
age and sturdy independence in admir-
ing terms, and said the Boer farm ers
had invoked the admiration of the world.
~ wish to God" said he, "that the
Dutch farmer had won."
Mr. Hill said he found nothing in the
Bible in regard to accumulation of cor
porate wealth, and believed that the only
right means of accumulation was by per-
sonal endeavor. Posterity owes much to
the pioneers, who have been leaders OF
al walks and conditions of life, he said:
He was not in sympathy with the demand
for cheap things; nothing should be sc
cheap as to deny proper remuneration to
the labor which produces it. He re-
spected public opinion when it was right,
but held it in contempt when wrong.

To Extend the Southern.

/, The Murphy branch of the Southern
is to be extended. This line is out from
Asheville and is 1873 miles long. Ac-
cording to present plans the road will be
carried on from Bushnell down the Little
Tennessee river to Maryville, about 60
miles. 1t is authoritatively stated by
the management of this road that their
ultimate intention is, when this Murphy
extension is finished, to push line
through Rabun Gap into Eastern ,orgia
and Western South Carolina, making
short connection with the Southern 3
other lines III these States from the coal
folds. Two corps of engineers are al
ready engaged at work on this proposed
extension. A short cut of this kind into
the coal fields would save Southern rail
way thousands of dollars monthly in
haula9e, employees, etc. A project of
this kind has long been in contemplation
by officials of the road and it's building
may be looked forward TO with cer-
tainty.-Asheville Citizen.

Forest Point last night Miss Winnie
Tucker, prominent young lady OF
Deoherd, stepped over the cliff. Sidney
Cowan, young Nashville man, sprang
late to prevent her fall, being over and
beyond her in the fall. Though Cowan
was badly shaken by the jar he was still
conscious and as his body rolled down
the ledge he caught on bush, which
stayed his progress. Miss Tucker,
bleeding and unconscious, was falling in
the path he had come. As she passed he
caught and held her, their fight ending

organized a rescue party, descending to
She ledge by a narrow circuitous path.
Cowan was found clutching the girls
dress in one hand and clump of bushes
in the other. Miss Tucker was limp and
