here. the Reliance, the new aspirant
for the honor O. defending Americas

The weather conditions were per-

bay on a broad reach with the wind

maker, she rendered a splendid &C.

THE ELECTION
OF TEACHERS
School Board Chooses Larger Part of
the Faculty for the Com.
ing School Year.
OLD FORCE is REELECTED
But Three Changes Made in the
Teaching corps-superintend.
ent Not Yet Chosen.

At the regular meeting held Mon.
day evening in the Central school
building the new board of trustees of
district No. l was organized. John o.
Gilkerson was sworn In, but Amos.
Beck, the other new member of the
board. was not present. The retiring
members are Frank Moshner and Grif-
fin McHugh. In the reorganization
Of the board w. e. Cort was re-elect-
ed chairman. L. w. Eldridge, vice
chairman, and l.. d. Blodgett, secre-
tary.
The election of teachers was taken
up and the entire evening was spent
in discussing the various applications
and the entire corps was finally chos-
en- with the exception of the superin-
tendent. For that position the clerk
has received applications and recon-
mendations by the score, but the
board realizing that the success of the
school depends largely upon the er1i-
cheney and experience of the superin-
tendent, is exercising great delibera-
ton in choosing a to Prof.
Busenburg.
For the grade positions, all of the
teachers of the past year were re-
elected, with the exception Of Misses
PEBBLES, Weldon and Doolittle. None
of these three were applicants and it
was necessary to find successors to
them. Miss Lena B. Anderson of Dill
lon. was chosen to fill one of the
places. She is a graduate of the state
normal and is highly recommended
by both the president Of the normal
and Superintendent Miss Ada Mey-
ersick, who Is personally acquaint-
ed with her and her work. Miss Ger
trude Stone, of Columbus, Ohio, was
given one Of the places and a tele-
gram was sent to Miss Helen Beebe
of New York City offering her the
position of kindergarten teacher. but
no response has yet been received
from her.
Miss Bessie Dwight, who was elect.
ed to fill out the u~nexpired term of
Miss Orpha Noble, was chosen for the
new term and Miss Noble was given
the principalship of the old school
building, which will be occupied by
the city school next year. There
will probably be four teachers in the
building on the hill. Miss Fulton
was reelected assistant principal of
the central school.
The board will meet In regular ses.
sion two weeks hence, when. in all
probability, a superintendent will be
chosen.

testified that the hides exhibited came

NEW DESERT RULING.

commissioner Holds That Growth OF
Grass Is Not Sufficient.
Register Brassey yesterday receiv-
ed from the commissioner of the gen.
eral land office a new ruling relative
to requirements for desert land proofs,
quite important to claimants.
In the particular cas- claimant had
testified to the securing of sufficient
water for irrigation. to the expendi-
ture of the required amount and that
upon seventy-seven acres a growth OF
grass had been promoted by reclama-
ton. The commissioner holds this to
be insufficient and says "the mere in.
crease in the growth of grass is not
sufficient, when the soil is such that
blowing and stirring ,Ae soil would
not be detrimental thereto" and that
one-eighth of the tract must be actu.
ally under cultivation to admit Of sat
isfactory proof.

Agricultural and immigration Cues.
lions Affecting the South.

Nearly eight pages of the October issue
of the Southern Farm Magazine of Balti-
more devoted to letters from officials of
Southern and Southwestern railroads en-
gagged in the practical task of attracting
white settlers are striking illustrations
of the widespread interest in Southern
immigration. The interest is shown in
the North and West by the throngs of
hOmeseeHers moving from those quar-
ters, by the activity in the South of real
estate men who have succeeded in other
parts OF the country, and by the general
spirit OF inquiry. It's complement is in
the quickening activities in many parts
of the South to make advantages known
and to welcome the newcomers
OF special interest in this connection is
an article in the same issue of the Maya
zine by Mr. Thurston II. Allen, of Flor
ence, Ala, who presents the detailed fig
ures of the experience of German settlers
in alabama with several kinds of crops
This thrifty class depends largely upon
itself, but Others look to the negroes as
helpers in their farming operations.
Much misapprehension about the capa-
blllties OF the negroes as farm laborers
has been created by agitators. Mr..
Thomas z. Grasty contributes some SEN
sible advice on this point, to the effect
that the farm is frst-class sthool for
the proper education of the negro, and
he urges that meanwhile Southern farm
ers might find relief from temporary ~
convenience by giving more attention to
the raising of good grade livestock.
The Southern Farm Magazine, which
is published by the Manufacture. s. Zee
ord Publishing Co., Baltimore is invalu-
able to all who want to keep in touch
with the great questions affecting South
ern agricultural and mineral interests.

The Meanest Man on Earth.
Albemarle Enterprise.

Albemarie Enterprise.
The tragedy at Mt. Ulla, in which
young Russell Sheriff. was slain by
Tom and Chalmers White, is but a
natural end to p life that held no re-
spect for a woman's honor. The
White boys responded to a pathetic
appeal from a broken hearted moth
er to avenge the honor of her daugh-
ter and their niece. They responded
by asking the man to marry the girl
whom he had seduced. He refused,
and the penalty of his crime was his
life. The deed is terrible in it's conse-
quences, and yet public sentiment
will acquit the White boys. The evil
dence yet to appear will determine
whether the dead man was entitled
to any mercy, and it would be unfair
to make out a case wholly in favor
of the defendants before a legal hear
ing takes place. There is no meaner
man on earth than he who wrecks
the life and character of an innocent
woman. Such q man deserves death,
and as there is no law on our statute
books that metes out any suitable
punishment for such a vile offense,
there can be no wonder that an out
ragged relative will rise up at times to
avenge such wrong, and no jury in
the land will refuse to acquit the
man who thus takes the law into his
own hands May the time come
when the defamer of innocent women
will be treated as a common felon
and price put upon such wickedness
that will cause the respectable" fiend
to think before he leaps.

A Woman'S Wealth.
Paine'SCelery
Compound
GIVES VIGOR AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
BUN DOWN WOMEN.

1t is maintained by many distinguished
writers that the greatness of nation depends
much upon the physical condition of its
women. The general conditions which con-
tribute TO health and long life, are those which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them loyable, we cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing to oyerwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debili-
tated.
We bring to the attention of all weary,
respondent, hopeless, and sickly women
earth's great rescuer and health builder,
Paine's Celery Compound. Thousands of
healthy women around US owe their present
vigor, activity, and robustness to Paine's
Celery Compound. Mrs. Stephen Smith, St.
Paul, Mimi, tells how she was snatched from
the grave; she says:-

and was at deaths door, and no one ever
expected me to recover. was SO weak that
as soon as they brought me out of one faint

The Girl Who Works.
Greenville Reflector.

Greenville Reflector
Take your hat off to the girl who
works. 1t is not an ideal condition
of society which makes it necessary
for a woman to earn an independent
living, to say nothing of supporting
a family, but conditions, like the
poor, we have with us always. The
girl who works bears the heat and
burden of the day with poor reward,
and she is often looked down upon by
her more fortunate sisters, but she
has heart and soul as far above the
idle, luxurious woman as the sky is
above the earth. She looks with
plying, sympathizing glance upon
the bowed head and bent shoulders
of her father and mother, or she
watches over and tolls for her Or
phaned brothers and sisters, that
they may not stumble and fall upon
rough places. She sings when her
heart is heavy and she laughs in the
joys OF her loved ones and mingles
her tears in their SORROWS. She rests
only that she may have strength to
try and try again. The roses in her
life are few. but those few are sweeter
than any blossom the idle woman
can pluck.
