At a called meeting OF the
stock holders of the kingstree
Telephone Co., held last Thurs
dav night committee consisting
of LeRoy Lee, D. g. Scott and c..
w. Wolfe was elected to call a
meeting of the stockholders OF
the out.oi-town lines for the pur-
pose of discussing the telephone
situation generally and especially
to consider the matter Of employ
ing lineman 10 look after all the
telephone instruments so that a
better service may be secured.
This committee met on Friday
and prepared the following letter,
a copy of which has been sent to

Kingstree. S. c., June 6, 1892.
Dear SIR
A meeting of the stockholders Of the
Kingstree Telephone Company was
held on June 5th, and the undersigned
were appointed Us i committee. to con-
fer with the stockholders of the several
lines running into kingstree Central,
or representatives Of said lines.
This committee met on June 6. and
determined to call i meeting Of the
stockholders of these various lines TO
be held in the Court House in Kings
tree, Monday, June 16,, 1902. The OBJ
jec. Of this meeting is TO consider the
advisabiitv of femploying lineman to
look after the sy:tem and to transact
such other business rs may be conSld-
cred to the best interest OF the stock
holder Of these lines. In case each
stakeholder cannot attend in person we
would suggest that one or more repre-
xentativeS be sent, with full power to
act as to his line. The unsatisfactory
condition of the system under its pres
ent management demands that some
change be made at once, and we earn
estly request that every one interested
in this enterprise be on hand by -
O'Clock sharp on the day named.
Respectfully,
LEROY LEE, Chairman,
ID. Z. SCOTT.
G.. w. WOLFE.
1t is absolutely necessary in
order to get satisfactory service,
that the lines be kept in order
and this requires the services Of
one who understands something
of telephony. The need OF line
man has been greatly felt here
and we have no doubt that the
same necessity exists on all the
lines.
Let US then have a full attend
ance on Monday and discuss the
matter fully and freely.

A TALK TO SCHOOL BOYS.

| IL hikh ~ SSSS
SOUND ADVICE FROM THE SAGE
OF POSSUM FORK.
Words of Wisdom Well Worth the
Attention of Children Of
Larger Growth.
Editor County Record:
With your permission l will
write a letter for school boys.
But the trouble is boys are so full
of mischief you can't get them to
think. 1t saw one in church yes
terday that coull not wait for the
preacher to say amen before he
was sticking other boys with pin
in his toes. Well, let them play,
but they should be taught to be-
have in the house of God.
You school boys that call your
selves Young men will find this
life a warfare. You must fight
your immoral nature with moral
discipline; IN fact you must fight
the world, the flesh and the devil
lif you ever make anything out Of
yourself, for in every thing you
put your hand to you will find op-
position.
But l want you, just now, to
help me contemplate the material
warfare that is going on in the
Island OF Martinique, some 1.400
south east of Florida, where a
large city and thousands of lives
were destroyed at one fell sweep
by one of the fercest volcanic
eruptions Of modern times. The
display in the awful warfare be-
tween fire and water is awe inspir-
ing to think of. Not to be conf
pared, however. to the prehistoric
upheavals that formed the noun
tains when the earth's crust was
thinner, but none the less IN power
because of the greater depth of
the crater through the superior
thickness oil the earth's crust,
which to-day is thought - by
scienlists-to be from 20 to so
miles,
But this most powerful of all
warfares is in the highest degree
essential, is indispensable 10 life
on earth because we must have
water, and without that guard Of
liquid fire enthroned below the
last drop of water on earth would
SOON penetrate the caverns of the
awful depths Of thousands OF
miles, and in the absence of heat
would CONCEAL TO solid ice: and like
the moon our world would 60 her
annual rounds in space with every
ocean cavern as dry as a powder
house. Yes. our friend the fire
fend lies underneath and guards
with eternal vigilance the least
approach of implnging water on
its domain, converting it instantly
into red hot steam which drives
back with irresistible force any
approaching water and keeps the
seas above the land.
Let us Jock a little at the fear
full force required for. the work.
The weight of water per square
inch is a little less thah half
pound for each foot in height, so
water one mile deep will press
about 2,400 pounds per square
inch, and 5 miles deep $4,000
pounds. so when ever it is pushed
down through crevices, the deeper
it goes the more it is pressed, so
| if the earth's crust is only 20
miles thick the pressure would be
$4,000 pounds per inch, a power
already equal to the explosion OF
gun powder.
Then, again, water at the sea
level boils at 2I2 deg. F., and on
high mountains less heat will tuln

Well Contested Football
Game Is Played
At Makiki.
THREE GOALS SCORED
IN The FIRST HALF
q. DOwSett Plays Well and Scores
With Good Long Shot Which
Would Have Done CredittO
Senior League,

The second of the series of Associa-
ton football matches under the Junior
League was played at Makiki yesterday
afternoon at $3.50 o'clock. The rival
teams were the Punahous and Wander
ers-the latter wearing red and white
costume and the former, who defeated
the Males last week, blue and white.
Dowsett won the toss for the Puma
hous and elected to defend the mauka
goal-giving his opponents the advan'
tage of both sun and wind-a rather
risky concession.
The lineup was as follows:
Punahous-Goal. J. A. Gilman:
backs, A. Dreier. L. Magoon: forwards,
II. Dowsett, L. Andrews and S. Dodge,
Wanderers--Goal, Vincent; backs,
w. BaTlentyne and Auerbach; for
wards, II. Kinsley, F. Bailey, J. Mott.
Referee, l.. G. Blackman; linesmen,
C. Herbert and G. Hatch.
From the start the Punahous pressed
all their forwards. playing a vigorous
game. w. Ballentyne and Auerbach,
however. put up a sturdy defense and
kept their goal secure till Andrews
scored with fast shot.
The Wanderers were now playing
for all they were worth and made sew
eral rushes which at length terminal.
ed in a goal to the credit of J. Mott.
Withthe score standing at one all,
each team did its best to secure the
advantage and at length the Wander
ers were rewarded with another goal
which was scored by S. Dodge.
Thus matters stood at half time.
II. Dowsett's Long Shot.

length II. Dowsett, who was playing a
sterling game. broke away and scored
third goal for the Punahous with a
rafting good long shot which would
have done credit to the senior league.
The Wanderers. although playing a
plucky game, appeared to be giving
way but again rallying Mott increased
their score to goals.
The Punahous scored again by An

hous. goals; Wanderers, goals.
For the winners II. Dowsett, L. An.

themselves, the former giving promise
of first class man. Dreier is de-

For the Wanderers F. Bailey and
J. Mott did excellent at forwards ant

might be said of Vincent. The team

and the game will be a keen one al
both will be strong to get away from

and Popnlist, Republican and a
free-siIver Republican. One Of the con-
ditions of their contract was that when
partner died each of the survivors
was TO deposit 500 in the coffin to be
hurled with the deceased. The Dem
ocrat died and after the remains had
been prepared for burial the survivors
met and the conditions We're discuss

pieces in the cotfin.v "And II said

DOWN ON CIGARETTES.
Educators Hop On Their Use Severely.

The cigarette evil, as the use of these
vile tobacco compounds has become
generally recognized to be was the SUBJ
ject of lengthy discussion at the Mon
ongahela Valley Round Table meeting
in this city says the Grafton Sentinel.
The cigarette is ueing recognized by
the teachers in our schools as the
greatest foe to education that they
have to contend with. Superintend-
ent Fleming, of the Grafton public
schools, attributed to cigarette smok
ing the cause of the failure of a large
number of boys to make a grade in
their final examinations at the close
of the school last year to entitle them
to promotion. As a result many
drop out of school because of their
failure on examination day, and dis
like for study on account of dulled
mental powers resulting from this
abominable habit that is doing so
much to ruin the rising generation
and filing the country with vicious
mental dwarfs. 1t was the testimony
of teachers from the schools of other
towns that the same unhappy state
of affairs exists in their schools, and
that it was the most serious matter
now confronting those in charge of the
public school, Tue Legislature should
give this growing evil the attention its
Importance demands, and such legis-
lation should be enacted as would
minimize TO the lowest possible degree
4 l, 81 4 L 4
youths of our country who have allow
ed themselves TO become enslaved to
this terrible habit which is today, in
the opinion of many high authorities,
doing more harm to the rising genera
tion than the incorporate use of al
coholic drinks.
