The South Carolina College
for Teachers.

Although nearly approaching it's CEN
tennial anniversary. the South Carolina
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 inaugurated.
For some years the College has had
department Of pedagogy, for the train
ing or teachers; but last winter, for the
first time, the Legislature created
number of endowed normal scholar
ships, one for each county. 1t is the
intention. of the Trustees and Faculty
to set these scholarships upon high
plane, and to seek thereby to qualify
superior young men for positions of
leadership and influence in our public
schools. However largely women may
be employed as teachers the work of
superinteDdence, direction and control
must continue to be most largely in the
hands of the men: and it is to supply
these teachers of leadership and in
nuence. in the community as well as in
the schools, that the College will chiefly
aim, through these scholarships. Hence,
no young man under nineteen years Of
age will be eligible. and preference will
be given to those 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
set practical plane; and it Is intended
that this department shall be worthily
entitieu TO be called a college for
Teachers All the work will be dis
tinctively normal, and apart from the
regular College classes. The Trustees
ana Faculty feel sure that in preparing
body of strong and we'll equipped
men teachers the College will aid in
supplying one of the most important
needs of the State. They hope, also.
that this work, in it's success and its
results, maYlmeet with such public an
proval as to lead hereafter to it's still
further enlargement.
Circulars have been issued giving the
details of regulations and course OF
study.
The present session, now nearly
ended, has been very encouraging Not
n ripple has disturbed the internal
peace of the College. The new Presi-
dent has won golden opinions, and has
more than maintained the confidence
and affection gained in his long service
rs professor. The friends OF the Col
i"ge look hopefully forward to the con-
tInued success and increased usefulness
OF this Venerated institution, which will
soon enter upon its second century OF
honorable history.

\ man who owned whole street OF

that the bricks were being constantly

of these houses. The drprcdators were

do anything with them. Several were
captured and punished, but the THEY

At last, in disgust, he determined to
pull down the walls and outbuildinSs
level to the ground, make new street
and build fresh houses ut cost or
$4,000 to $4,000. When the work be-
gan and the old walls were torn down
the bricks gave up their secret. They
had been made of clay taken from
ground full of alluvial gold, and they
were full of the precious metal. lie
had them all broken fine and washed.
Some panned out as much as two pen
nywcights 10 the dish, and the result
was that he got sufficient gold to pay
for the whole cost OF his improvements.

The Frogs Feeding.

Mr.. Frog has an enormous mouth for
his size, and If we were to put a finger
inside 1t we would find that he has a
row of teeth In the upper jaw and that
his soft white tongue, unlike our own,
is attached in front and is free behind.
When he wishes to catch any insect he
throws out the free end of the tongue,
then draws 1t in so rapidly that 1t is
difficult to see whether he has been
successful or not. AS the tongue Is
coated with q gummy fluid, the insect
sticks to it and is carried back into the
mouth, which closes upon it like the
door OF tomb. Frogs, however, are
not limited to one mode Of feeding.
They often leap open mouthed upon
larger prey, which includes besides in.
sects small fish. mice. small ducklings,
pollwogs and tiny frogs. - Woman's
