The South Carolina College
for Teachers.

Although nearly approaching Its CEN
tennial anniversary. the South Caroilna
College shows none Of the ~decrepitude
Of old age, but rather increasing signs
of vigorous life. A new departure OF
great importance to the College and to
the State has just been inaugrrated.
For some years the College has had q
department Of pedagogy, for the train
ing Of teachers: blu last winter. FOR the
first time, the Legislature created q
number of endowed normal scholar
ships, one for each county. 1t is the
Intention of the Trustees and Faculty
20 set these scholarships upon a high
plane, and to seek thereby to quaFfy
superior young men for positions or
leadership and influence In our PUBIC
schools. However largely women may
be employed as teachers, the work OF
superintendent. direction n control
must continue TO be most largely In the.
hands of the men: and It Is to supply
these teachers Of leadership and IN
fuence. in the community as well as IN
the schools, that the College will chiefly
aim. through these scholarships. Hence.
no young nan under nineteen years OF
age will be eligible, and preference VIII
be given to these applicants who have
already taught with success for at
least one year.
A special and technical course OF
study has been established, on a high
yet practical plane; and 1t ts intended:
That this department shall be worthNy'
entitled to be called a college for
Teachers All the work Will be dis
tinctively normal. and apart from the.
regular College classeA, The Trustees
and Faculty feel sure that In preparing
a body of strong and well equipped
men teachers the College will cid In
supplying one Of the most important
needs Of the State. They hope. also.
thnt this work. in its success and it's
results, may meet with such public ap-
prevail as to lead hereafter 70 ia still
further enlargement.
Circulars have been issued giving the
details Of regulations and Course ID
study.
The present session. now nearly
ended, has been very encouraging. Not;
a ripple has disturbed the taternalI
peace Of the College. The new Presi-
dent has won golden opinions, and has,
more than maintained the confidence!
and affection gained m his Long service
as professor. The friends Of tho Col
lego bok hopefully forward to the con-
tinued success and increased usefulness,
Of this venerated institution. which will
o o enter upon fts second century OF
Ho1mahls Atstoey.

which, with it's associated and allied
force, magnetism, is now so necessary
to civilized man. The latest triumph
in the continued advance in the sub
lection of this force into our service
the flashing of messages across the
broad Atlantic by 'radiography"-ha
excited our boundless establishments
but the possibilities of a vastly wider
field for the utilization of this its lat
est application, should not be consid-
cred impracticable; for when a solar
electrical storm occurs, the energy
of that disturbance is transmitted to
us in an enthusiastically short space of
time, through 90,000,000 miles of ether,
disturbing our electricity to such an
extent that on one or two occasions
of late years it has completely disor-
ganized the electric telegraphs.
But although this potent energy is
all around uS-in the earth, in the air,
in space-yet how cumbrous is the
mode of Harvesting it for our service.
What a colossal fortune awaits the
genius who invents a mode of impro-
priating this tremendous, ever present
power, by some simple and facile
method.
The multiform developments of cleo
tricity are diverse and numerous. But
apart, of course, from that most glo-
IlOuS Oh all the SpeCldCleS 10 De VIII
messed on this earth-a display of au-
rora -borealis-perhaps the most re-
markable and striking of all these va
ried forms. is the seldom observed
phenomenon of globe lightning. Not
| the terror-striking spectacle of great
globes of fire descending from the
clouds and. with, terrific. impact, strik,
ing into the ground; but the more pla.
cid display which occurs, though very
rarely, after a great storm. The writer
has had the good fortune to observe
both these phenomena; and though the
former is very terrible and awe-inspir-
ing, yet this latter spectacle is beyond
measure weird and impressive.
A furious storm had been raging for
some hours: vivid lightning flashing
hither and thither; conclusive peals OF
overriding thunder continuously dis
charging overhead with decorating
maddened roar: while the blasts of a
very hurricane, and the surging of a
wild deluge, as though the windows of
heaven were opened, added to the up
roar. At length the storm ceased, and
the atmosphere, being doubtless sur
charged with electricity. balls of blue
flame about the size of footballs COM
menced to float about. as if a number
of sprites were INDUCING in a game of
ball. Now the f1ame-balls appeared as
if thrown with force. bounding and
richochetting along the road; now APP
parently leisurely rolling along. or trav-
cling about breast-high; but never as
cending more than a few feet from the
ground. Altogether the lustrous pa
geant was so strangely weird and mys-
tic, that many were in a state of alarm
lest the last day had come.
But those who. with Divine help. en-
deavor to do the will of their Creator.
and whose sins have been obliterated
from the record in virtue of the atone
ment made for them by their Redeemer,
when that Great Day does come, will
be fearless and joyful. For they know
that their redemption draweth nigh.

"WHITE GHOST" STILL HERE.
T. Held on an Attachment for
$40.

The white Ghost" the motor BIZ

IN this city the past two months or
more in court scrapes and otherwise,
Is again at Justice Naughtins court
waiting the settlement of an attach
nent in the sum of $40, claimed by
Hamp P Leopold to be due him by F.
Ed Spooner, its owner, for batteries
furnished it while here.
The "Ghost" has just been paid out
Of one court scrape and was on the
dock ready to be shipped to Spooner in
New York when the attachment was
served by Leopold. 1t is claimed by
several riders of this city that Spoon
er is embarrassed financially and that
the machine has cost him considerable
trouble and expense since it was
brought here in November by Joe Mel
son.
They also say that had Mr. Leopold
made known the fact that he had an
attachment against the wheel, the
friends of Spooner would have paid
the amount so that it could have gone
on to him. AS it is now it will be
some little time before Spooner can
get possession of the wheel 1t is a
very valuable and fast motor and on
that account Spooner is DESTROYS of
getting it back again.

A Gany Menu.
From I.ippincott's.

1.-TWO weeks before 1 came aboard

so one morning I started in a sailboat
at o'clock. 1 always take considera-
BILE interest in my meals" continued
the Jackass-repeating an obvious
fact, as in his eagerness he usually fell
through the salon door when the bell
rang-"but 1 don't think 1 was ever
so hungry in my life as when 1 got
there at l o'clock in the afternoon.
Now, says 1 to myself, 'Skillings
ought to set out a good meal; I'll in
vite myself to dinner at Skillings'.
when l got to Skillings' house 1
found that Skillings was dead-had
been dead for some weeks-and so
Skilling's widow sat down to tell me
the details of his taking off.
Just as she laid him in his coffin,
having gone over his dying words
three times, 1 got a chance to ask
her if she would give me little din
ner.
Certainly, yes. said the old lady
hospitably; then she went on and
buried Skillings while l starved.
There was a great commotion and
rafting of pots and pans in the
kitchen when once she started cook
ing. 1 sat in the front room with my
mouth watering till 4 o'clock in the
afternoon.
You're got the best in the 'ouse,
sir said the old lady, appearing In
the doorway finally. red and excited.
It's a meat poi hive made. sir.
There's no bread, and it's been a lang
tonne since there's been any fresh
meat for we, but mebby you can
make out, sir
"Hark you" said the Jackass i'm
pressively. "She had a pie big enough
for twenty men, 1t was cooked in one
of those big iron bake-kettles. 1t had
crust on the bottom and one on
top. / stabbed into it; and the smell
that arose nearly knocked me down.
When it was disembowelled l found
two water-pigeons, d chunk of carl
bou that must have been somewhere
near my age, piece of bacon, and
hunk of fat pork that Mrs. Skllings
said came ashore from wreck early
in the spring. She urged me to eat,
told me not to feel backward. as
there was plenty of il, and to pitch
right in just as if 1 was at home.

solemnly, II never tasted such a mess
in my life. took one bite of the wa

must excuse me. Ma'am, you really
must excuse me, but I'm that shocked
and upset over Mr.. ,Skilling's death
that it has taken my appetite. 1t has
indeed, Ma'am. 1 loved Skillings like
