Inauguration Day.

The exact time when State official
~ provided for and it is custom cry for
them to take the oath Of Office the
same day the Governor is inaugureted.
Even the time cf Inauguration, how
ever, is not fixed, though the ceremony
usually takes place about January Is.
The late Governor Ellerbe tried to
have the third Tuesday Of January
fixed as the time, but nothing was ever
done about it, 30 that Inauguration
day is usually set to suit the conven-
lence OF tho outgoing and incoming
Governors. The Legislature meets
next month on the 18th, which is Tues
day, and Governor Hayward will come
here on the 10th, and it may be that
Governor McSweeney will have finish
the office by the following Tuesday,
which will be the Goth. There will on
that day then probably be q pretty
general change around in the official
family in the State House, as we'll as
among the employees in the building.
In the Governors office j. E. Norment
will occupy, +. II. Aull's desk as pri-
vate secretary. Governor Hayward
mas appointed Miss Henderson, Of Col
Teton, as stenographer, who viii sue
ceed Miss Niernsee, the present steno-
grapher.. The affable and aocommo-
dating Sanders, the. present porter,
will give way to another cOlOred man,
selected by Governor Hayward.
jesse ]. CAN'T will formally be Sec
retary OF State, position he is thor
oughly. familiar. with, as during Mr..
Coopers illness he has had the duties
OF the office pretty much on his shoul
ders. 1t is likely that j. w. McCown
will be his chief clerk, though his staff
has not been formally decided upon,
though no changes are looked for to
any extent. d. H. Means and Mr.. Nc
Laurin are connected with the office in
the land department. j H. Mitchell is
a clerk and Miss Walker is tho stenog-
rapher, and they will likely. continue
A. w. Jones becomes Comptroller
General. He has offered the position
of chief clerk to David II. Wise, of
Aiken County. He has been auditor
and is considered an expert in book
keeping and in the knowledge of the
tax laws of the State. Mr.. Richard
son will be in charge Of the insurance
remain stenOgrapher and clerk in the
pension department..
In the Attorney Generals office Mr..
Gunter will have as his assistant Code
Commissioner Townsend, of Barnwell,
and Miss Dwight, stenographer.
In the AdJutant Generals Office Col.
Frost will have as his assistant Capt.
j. NJ. Patrick, of Anderson.
The superintendent of Education
will have as his chief clerk w. II. Bar
ton, former county superintendent of
education of Greenville County. Thus,
while there will be but few new faces
in the offlcr J, still the changes in posi-
tiOns will be considerable. 1t may be
worthy Of note that the people, uncon-
scionsly perhaps, endorsed the civil
their officers. Mr. CAN'T, Mr.. Gunter,
Mr. Jones and Mr.. Frost were all pro-
NOTED from places of assistants to

EXPRESS PACKAGE
STOLEN FROM DEPOT
A Negro Woman and White Boy
Found TO Have the Money.
Most Of it Recovered.
Especial Dispatch to The Times.


IVOR, VA, June 10.-An express pack
age containing the sum of one Thousand
dollars msteriously disappeared from the
depot yesterday morning at 8 O'Clock. A
dilgent search was kept up through the
day with no result until about sunset,
wnen a negro woman named Della Holmes
was suspected. she having spent, quite a
sum Of money during the day with the
merchants. After examining the bills
that she had spent it was found that
they contained the needle holes made BY
the forwarding agent sealing the package.
The route agent for the express COM
pally arrived on the 9:15 P. NJ. train. He
having been made acquainted With the
circumstances found the negro woman at
once and soon drew from her a confess
sion. She Immediately led him to where
she had hidden the money in tin can
under an clubhouse in the rear of the
hotel.
After counting the money In the tin
can it was found that she had only four
hundred and forty-five dollars. He began
questioning her about the remaining five
hundred and forty-Gve She then con-
fessed with having equally divided the
money with d white boy named Joseph
Munford. The agent went, accompanied
by the woman and several others, to
N1unfords home. He at first denied the
charge, but was soon made to confess
ALL and led the party to where he had
hidden the money in the woods under a
stump.
He had not spent any of his FIVE hun
dred. so was able to produce his part.
This left a deficiency of forty-flve dollars,
a part of which the negro woman spent
with the merchants, and the remainder
she had given to another woman named
Marian Evans. The parties are still at
large, but it is rumored that the express
company will take steps to have them
prosecuted.
The pIckage was consigned to r. NJ
Harris, Of Ivor. a peanut buyer for. the
Gwaltney G. Bunkley Company. of Smith
field, who sent the money.

prominent citizen and Councilman. who
was a member of Company HI Thir-
teenth Virginia Regiment during the
Civil War was persuaded to tell of how
in April, 1861, the first Confederate flag
was raised in Winchester, and in all pro-
liability the first similar flag raised In the
entire state of Virginia.
There is nothing so exciting about the
incident, but it is regarded by the Vet
Grams as matter Of history, and will be
so promulgated. This flag was made by
four devoted Confederate women. Mrs.
Betsy Barr and her three daughters. Mrs.
Clara Baugh, now of New Orleans; Mrs.
Richard O'Rorick and Mrs. William Cal
vert, both of whom are now dead. Mrs.
Barr also has long since Joined the silent
majority of the humble but heroic Con-
federate women.
The State had not seeded when the
flag was in course of making. and the
Union sentiment was so strong IN WIN
chester that Captain Haymaker was
warned that he would not be allowed to
raise the emblem of disunion. Undaunted.
however, he procured flagstaff that
would tower above the two-story build
inss then predominating in2this city. Inc
poIe was planted on the then principal
corner northeast of the courthouse. a
large ttrong of Southern men assembled
to protect the heroic young exponent OF
the Confederacy, and the beloved flag
was swung to the breeze amid defiant
cheers.
At the same instant Georgian regi-
ment the first Confederate soldiers VINO
ever came to this city, marched proudly
down the main street. When they saw
the flag their enthusiasm displayed itself
in vociferous cheering. These soldiers
brought news that Virginia had seeded,
and the town grew wild with excitemnt.
There was a general Publication. Speeches
were made that night, and the courage
of the young flag raiser was |extolled.
while the virtues of the ladi who made
IT were lauded in the language alone
known to the gallant Georgian orator.
When the Georgians left Winchester
that night. Mrs. Barr was compelled to
review the column and bow her &C
acknowledgement OF the many cries of God
bless you, Aunt Betsy!' Goodbye,
Aunt Betsy and the like.
It is confidently belived in Winchester
that this was the first Confederate flag
raised in Virginia. At any rate it is of
more than ordinary interest to note the
occurrence.
