[ereenvillo Mountaineer, March Is.

GGreenyille Mountaineer, March 49,
Among the cases exciting more than
usual interest in the Circuit Court this
week was a contest over reward Of
81 600 offered by the Southern Railway
last summer for the apprehension and
conviction of the person or persons who
wrecked a passenger train not far from
Westminster. The action was brought
by j: w. Batson, Z. j. Newby and I'll. b.
Hendricks, who alleged that they were
entitled to an equal division of the re-.
ward with Sheriff b. r. Moss, of Oconee
county, and Mr.. Thomas N. Hanie, of
the detective service of the Southern
Railway, the men who employed them to
aid in finding the negro suspected of the
crime. The Southern Railway was in
cluded in the action, but was discharged

Information received by them, pursued
q negro, who turned out to be one Alf

through OConee, Pickens and Greenville
counties, and on reaching the upper part
OF this county, they employed Batson,

Greenville county. Hanio 4 Moss
paid, or offered to pay, these n en-, and
the plaintiffs did not point out by tcs.
mony that they did anything furtno
towards fixing the crime on Aif Cohen.
The defendants showed that they spent
two weeks in getting up the testimony
on which Cohen was convicted at Wal
halla and sentenced to fifteen years in
the penitentiary. The Southern Railway
admitted its liability for the sum of 81 900
and was discharged from the case after
the payment of that sum into court. The
verdict of the jury was, "We find for the
defendants, b. r. Moss and T. N. Hanie,
the full amount of the reward" the sum
OF $1,000. The court passed an order
for the said sum to be paid to the attor-
neyR of Moss and Hanie.
MIR. James 1. Earle was the attorney
for the plaintiffs, and Messrs. Julius T..
Boggs and r. T. Jaynes were the attor-
neys for b. r. Moss and T. N. Hanie.

State Board Of Education.

Columbia, March 2S.-At the meeting
OF the State Board of Education to- day
the following resolution was adopted:
To the Honorable, the Board of STrus-
tees of the Peabody education fund:
Whereas, the Trustees of the Peabody
education fund contemplate closing their
trust and concentrating the Peabody
funds into teachers college, instead Of
distributing them among the Southern
States, according to their respec-
tive needs; and whereas, it is
the judgment of the Board of Edu-
cation of South Carolina that the
spirit and intent of Mr.. Peabody's letter,
accompanying his gifts, indicate his pre-
ference for its distribution among the
States; and whereas, in our opinion, it
would be decidly more helpful to the
common schools tc apportion the funds
than to concentrate them into college
for teachers; therefore be 1t resolved
/. That the trustees of the Peabody
education fund be respectfully solicited
to set apart for educational purposes in
South Carolina the sum to which the
State may be entitled under the deeds of
trnst; bearing date February 7. 1867. and
June 30, 1860.
2. That the Governor of South Caro-
lima and the State Superintendent of
Education be respectfully requested to
confer with the trustees of the Peabody
education fund and urge upon them the
wisdom of this course
A resolution was also passed urging
the Peabody trustees to make the usual
appropriation for summer schools this
summer. The State board appropriated
the income for this year of tho perma-
nent school fund for the purpose of con-
Quoting summer schools.
The following also passed:
Resolved, That we. at our September
meeting, take up the question of a
South Carolina edition of civil govern
ment, and will at that time consider any
manuscripts submitted to us for exami-
nation, with view to its adoption as
supplementary to Peterman's Civil Gov
ernment.
The County Boards of Education were
appointed, commissions to be issued
June 1st The Oconee County Board
will consist of @. l.. Craig, r. T. Jaynes

Y YOuIlg Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
Scott's Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
Scott's Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.

The ocoNEE OIL MILLS.
Commission Issued to Promoters, and the
Enterprise Is an Assured Fact.

Last Saturday the commission was re.
ceived in Walhalla from the Secretary OF
State, authorizing the formation of 9
company for the purpose OF operating Q
plant to be known as the Oconee Oil
Mills, which will car ~ on q general busi.
ness In the lines usually entered by oil
mills, handling all the by-prodSSts et
include one of tho best ginneries that
modern machinery and appliances will
permit. The commission was issued to
Messrs. John d. Werner, VIM. j. Strib-
ling, j. M. Ward, G. w. Pitchford and
ID. Oelkers, Of Walhalla, the promoters
Of the. enterprise, and now that they
have received their authority from the
State officials, the work of raising the
capital, which is placed at $4,000, will
be pushed rapidly, the company will be
organized at an early date, officers
elected, the plans for construction and
operation of the plant matured, and
actual work in the operation of the oil
mill begun with the opening of the oil
mill season. With q very little work on
remodeling. the three-story concrete
building. formerly occupied by the
tial structure can be made an ideal oil
mill, and this is the intention of the
promoters of the enterprise. 1t has
great advantages in being very close to
the business centre of town and siding on
the railroad tracks only about forty feet
distant, and the situation is unusually
convenient for q public ginnery, being on
the street leading to the Westminster
road and less than a block from Main
street, and from the road leading to
Tamassee.
This is an enterprise that should ap-
peal to every citizen. A large proper
tion-about three-fourths-of the CAPT
tai stock has been pledged, and when
the books of subscription are opened II
would be encouraging, not only to the
enterprise in hand, but to others In con-
temptation, to have the stock quickly
taken. 1t is manifestly to the interest OF
prises be started. There is an abund-
ance of capital here, idle and needing a
place for investment. These new enter
prises will pay-not necessarily large
dividend at the outset, but in an indi-
rect way they are always of material
benefit to the community in which they
are operated; and this indirect advant-
age not only benefits the stockholders,
but every business man and laborer.
There is additional work to be done, and
more money put in circulation; and the
more men employed and earning wages
means more money to be spent with the
merchants, increased market capacity
for the products of the farm, and a bet
terment of business conditions in all
lines.
1t is to be hoped there will be no delay
on the part of citizens in taking up the
stock of the oil mill. Let each one look
and there will be plenty of capital ready
for this enterprise, and an abundance
left for others. Let us begin to look
after the business interests of Walhalla
more closely, and the results will more
than repay the expenditure of the little
energy and capital needed to put these
enterprises into successful operation.
