The Hampton Monument.

Elsewhere in this issue appears a
notice from Capt John A Kelley,
chairman of the committee appointed
last May to assist in raising funds
for erecting . monument to Gen
Wade Hampton. the anniversary of
whose death was brought to mind so
forcibly by BY the eloquent tribute
paid to his memory in the house OF
Of representative. last week by his
old comrade in arms, Gen Matthew
&C Butler.
At the county Democratic con-
yention held last May there were
passed resolutions of love and respect
10 South Csrolina's wsrrior-states-
man, and these resolutions were
responded to in glowing and touch
ing tributes to bis memory in several
speeches of stirring eloquence. At
that same meeting . committee was
appointed, consisting of the executive
committeeman from the several Dem
ocrstic clubs, with Capt Kelley as
chairman. This committee was
expected to devise means, each in
his community, for raising funds
which were to be forwarded from
this county to the central committee
in Columbia.
Now we learn that only one
member of the committee has up to
this time turned in collections to be
spilled to the monument fund.
4 This seeming neglect, we feel sule,
hss been unintentional, being rather
due to procrastination, that arch
thief of time which steals away so
many golden opportunities. Now
that their attention has been brought
the matter We hope and believe that
old Williamsburg, where dwell so
many friends and admirers Of the
gallant Hampton, will not allow it to
20 on record that she has shirked her
duty toward an undertaking where
by his deeds Of noble achievement
are sought to be commemorsted. If
the committee fail in it's duty after
this appeal then the resolutions
passed and the speeches delivered
last May were mere idle compliment
and our sentiments of patriotism are
az shadovy as the baseless fabric of
dream.
We cannot conclude this appeal
more appropriately than by quoting
this sentiment from the admirable
letter of our able Columbia CORES
pondent, iHon W L Bass: ''The
greatest quality of truly great
people is shown in their respect and
honor for their heroes"

so unimportant. 1t was a struggle but
his decision was made.
1t was late in the afternoon. Cramp-
ton and Emaline had wandered far
over the island, lingering in the flow
cry hooks that companionship had
made dear to them They stood now
in the shadow of a palm half way up
the crater of Pail The sun a chariot
of fire was rolling down toward the
far-stretched line of the blue Pacific.
In the harbor lay the ship that was to

told her as they stood there; told her
with the calm. steel-like tones of the
Angio-SaXon when he has to overcome
himself. His face was drawn and
white, but there was no tremor in his
voice. He told her all, his duty, his
prospects, even his engagement to the
piue-eyed girl. When he had concluded
she stood like flower over which has
passed the hot breath blown from a
desert.
Aloha nue~loa oei," she murmured.
We are one. / live not but in you.
You are all my life. I love you"
He would have answered her, but
no words came to him. Like two
statues of grief they stood in the soft
sunlight.
heard a kissing sound Out of the
great mouth of Pail came a breath of
steam that spread over their heads
like great fan. And in the center of IL
stood dark cloud in shape like a wom-
an. Above them it lowered, reaching
out long, sinuous arms
"The spirit! The spirit of Palf"
cried the girl, sinking to the ground
and hiding her face from the light.
Champion stood for moment
transfixed with horror. Again he saw
the old woman the mother of Ema-
line, as she recited the weird legend.
When anyone wrongs a descendant
or chieftain's line the spirit rises out
of the mist to wreak speedy ven
geance." The words rang in his ears
like clarion. He turned away with
Shudder. Then the materialism of
his race came to his rescue. He
caught up the girl in his arms and ran
down the declivity toward the sea.
CHANGING back he saw the shadow fol-
lowing them. On he plunged, an awful
fear taking possession of him. He
heard the kissing as of a great SER
pent behind him. Loose stones gave
way under his feet and plunged down
into the placid water, cooling softly to
the shore Branches and briars tore at
his flesh and retarded his speed. But
he struggled on with his precious bur-
zen, rearing now TO look behind. At
last he reached the shore and plunged
into the sea. Yet the mist pursued
him and the dark figure bent ominous-
ly over their heads. Out, out into the
sea he struggled. The girl, revived by
the waters. kissed his cheek and MUIR
INJURED, Aloha" The surf lifted them
on its kindly bosom and bore them
forward. Another swell, and yet an
other. and to one standing upon the
sands they would have been but a
tiny spcck on the distant blue. Then
the mist with the black shadow in its
center lifted and whirled about, re-
turning to Pail. The spirit was aveng-
ed. But, clasped in each others arms,
the lovers drifted out to where none
but God dwells and where love is the
password to eternal bliss

Consider Your Profits.

If a woman has sharp or decidedly
prominent features let her avoid hats
that are set back or off the face. Such
a woman should wear a hat brought
we'll forward, her hair should be as
fluffy as possible, and becoming veil
Will do wonders. Sharp outlines in
hats should also be avoided by her.
Lace edges and indented brims are
good.
If the features are irregular, a hat
with the brim crushed here and there
is usually suitable setting. The wom-
an with prominent nose has much to
contend with. Her hats should avoid
severeness in outline and should be
set we'll forward, SO that the promi-
nent features will appear a little less in
size. On the other hand, the woman
with small fiat nose should not wear
a, hat that projects sufficiently to make
the nese appear even more insignffi-
cant, nor large hat that dwarfs it.
A hat under medium in size, and
with small flowers or short tips or
rows of moderate size should be worn.
With a small face and features huge
picture hats should never be worn,
even if the figure. be tall and slight
enough to carry them.

somehow, nervous American gaiety
seemed out of harmony with the soft
voluptuousness of this tropis isle. Then
the perfume of jasmine flower, linked
with the low notes of mellow laughter,

flash of a pair of soft dark eyes and

An elderly man, with slight, girlish

stopped at his side.

The young man bowed his thanks.
He was startled, not at the thought of
the insect, but at the beauty of the
girl.

young Englishman stod on the
deck of a sailing vessel coming into
the harbor of Honolulu. He had
been ranching in the wilds of Aus

birth. where pair of blue eyes were
waiting to give him lovers well

The vessel was several days overdue,
and his brow clouded when he was
told that the American ship which
transferred the Australian passengers
had sailed the day before. That meant
way island. The man paced the deck
and said unkind things of fate.
Down in the blue water about the
ship half a hundred brown skinned
boys sported like so many porpoises,
now standing in the water with hands
outStretched, ready to catch any triffe
flung to them, now floating notion
less on the waves, now diving for a
coin thrown into the sea and bringing
it to the surface with a cry Of triumph.
On the wharf a group of women and
young girls waited with baskets of
flowers and fruits.

He passed the day on the veranda of
the quaint little hotel, inhaling the
fragrance of the vines and flowers.
Luscious mangoes, figs, guavas and
tamarinds were within reach of his
hand; tall palms and cocoanuts in the
distance bowed with the slightest breeze
as if giving him honorable welcome to
this paradise. The low drone Of nu-
merous insects, the lazy hum of bees
and the soft atmosphere soothed him.
and he wondered dreamily if 1T would
not be pleasant to stay here always.
Then pair of blue eyes looked at him
accusingly out Of the distance and he
grew homesick.
That night there was a ball in the
hotel, given in honor of the James
town, an American man-of-War lying
in the harbor. A native band played
weird minor airs, beautiful women and
handsome men in uniform laughed,
danced and flirted as they might have

Curious Discovery as to Position of Its

Curious Discovery as to Position of Its
North and South Shores.
The fact Is not generally known that
on maps of the largest scale the north
ern and southern coasts of Porto Rico
are not shown in quite the position in
which they were formerly represented.
The difference is so light. however, that
1t is not appreciate on the small maps
most generally in use.
For some years the coast and geodetic
survey has been given considerable time
to seurvey of all the coasts OF Porto
Rico. 1t has found in the course of this
work several good harbors that had hith-
erto been unknown to the photographer.
One other very interesting discovery
has been made as a result of which the
north shore of the island has been
moved on the map a half mile to the
south and the southern shore a half mile
to the north.
DIR. Tittmann. the director of the sur
vey. recently explained the cause of this
unusual proceeding. He said that the
visible island of Porto Rico is really the
summit of a mountain whose slopes ex-
tend to great depths beneath the ada
cent seas
1t was, found that the observations for
sides Of this summit of the mountain
rising above the sea were considerably
affected by the local attraction of the
mountain masses, which caused q deflec-
ton of the plumb line 1t was therefore
necessary to take this DETECTION into
account in charting the island. New

FASHIONS FOR MEN.

For touring in a heavy automobile
run at high rate of speed common
sense demands that one have some
thing dust proof. wind proof and rain
proof, but when these matters have
been considered the reason ir advan-
tage of distinctive designs certainly fails
and it is somewhat difficult to under
stand why one suit is not as good as
another. Beyond the great fur coat
for winter which is undoubtedly smart.
fashion has left the matter of motor
dress very much to personal prefer
ence, and the best advice is to be
rule unto oneself without regard to
other considerations than those of COM
fort and natural good form.
The auto cap is of eravenette cloth
of light weight for. summer wear, with
long flaps OF tabs and ruff1e at the
back to protect the ears and neck from
dust, wind and rain. When not re-
quired these flaps may be turned over
the top of the cap and buttoned, the
neck piece or rufffe fitting around the
back of the cap. There are several 9TH
er designs of motor caps but for praeti-
cal advantages it is doubtful If any are
better for all round use. and when on
an extended trip practical advantage
should be the prime consideration.
AS far as it's etiquette goes the dress
of automobiling is somewhat similar
to that of driving. for in both cases
the costume depends very much upon
the character of the vehicle. No one
/ thinks of wearing any one particular
type offcIothes for driving run-about

Leather suits are now little worn-ex-
cept by servants-paid cf1auffeurs-and
in any case are not greatly to be rec
commended, for they are stiff, hot and
unsightly. Khaki cloth lis serviceable
and any of the water proof materials
Will answer the purpose. There are

signs, both single and double breasted,
and with or without belt, boX-plaits,

Auto gloves are very large and loose
with big gauntlets and the man
who starts out on a long drive without
gloves of some sort will surely regret it.
No man should ever wear a turnover
