Beginning in Life.

Somebody remarks that little
fish seem to have the most sen,
sible idea of start in life. Thew
will begin on small scale, and
there is as much truth as wit in
the saying. Begin small. Cou mt
less sermons have been preached
from that text, but until the prac-
tice comes up to the preaching,
there would seem to be need of
more yet. 1t is not so easy for a
young couple who have been
brought up in luxury and COM
fort to go backwards IN the social
scale and begin according to their
means. Better that it should be
done, however, at first, than to
have to come to it after brief
period of luxurious living; for in
that case, the last state is apt to
be worse than the first. Emulate
tho little fishes, therefore and be
gin on small scales.

Murder.

Every time man slayer goes
unwhipped of justice, security to
human life is lessened.
There is such thing as justi-
fable homicide; but few people
have ever seen case.
Excusable homicide is more or
less common; but in nine cases
out of ten it comes at the expense
of the manhood of jurors sworn
to do their duty.
About four cases of So called
elfdefense out of five are really
assassination, the self defense sit,
uation being provoked by the
slayer for his own advantage.
Good looking, intelligent mur>
derers have various advantages
over ilhterate, hard featured fell
lows: There are various reasons
for this but none of these. reasons
are creditable to the jurors who
permit such distinctions.
The logical object of furnishing
manslayers is not revenge. The
time has passed beyond the reach
of aid. They should be punished
to prevent them from seeking 9th
er victims. just as the tiger be-
comes man eater after having
once tasted human blood so man
slayers in many cases develop a
tendency to repeat their crimes. =

Columbia Record, 21st inst.
Judge Gary this morning REM
dered a decision in the case of
Brookshire VS.. the Farmers AL.
lance Exchange, ordering that a
receiyer be appointed for the fund
now on hand, about SIT, 900, or
that bond be furnished for twice
the amount involved until this

little doubt but that an appeal will
be made to the supreme court.
The case came up, it will be re-
membered, after the directors of
the Alliance Exchange had decl.
ed to distribute the SIT, 200, now
at the Palmetto bank, among the
various suballiances, the action
being brought by H. f. Brook
shire, representing the Cash Hill
Alliance in GreenviIle county, who
petitioned for receiver and also
brought suit for salary which he
claims due him. Suit was also
brought by M. l.. Donaldson for
salary alleged to be due.
Upon the first hearing by Judge
Gary the case was ordered to
Master John s. Werner for hear
ing to arrive at the facts in the
case. This hearing was completed
short time ago and argument
upon..the facts heard yesterday by
the Judge. The decision was an
nonncel this morning in the court
room.

The Model Farm At Winthrop
Many Interesting Facts and Fig
ures About Successfully
Managed Place = What
it Does.

Special to The State.
Rock Hill, July %. The
Winthrop State farm is, no doubt,
one of the most interesting places
in this section just now, and is
we'll worth visit from any one
who is at all concerned about
farming and modern methods.
The business has been a success,
and, though the land was only
ordinary several years ago, it is
in fine condition today. The actual
profit in money is small, but the
improvements would declare
big dividend. Aside from that, the
college is furnished with produce,
fresh, health giving, and this, too,
with al regularity and prompt
ness.
The tract contains 144 acres, s
acres being in an orchard of apples,
pears and peaches, acre in straw
berries, 2 in alfalfa and the re-
naming number in corn, sorghum
cane, beans, COW peas, etc.
From the alfalfa three tons to
the acre have been cut and there
will be two more cuts. This fur>
nishes then a splendid yield, and
it is only two years old.
The canning plant is now in
operation. Already 1000 gallons
of peaches have been put up, and
GOO gallons more of fruit and to.
matoes will be presel we'd in this
way.
Sixty mulch COWS are kept on
hand, the herd being made up of
Jerseys, Holsteins, Guernseys
and good "scrubs." The beef
cattle, that Is the greater part of
it, is bought and stall fed. In this
way the students are given the
best beef possible. One hundred
and thirty head are consumed an-
nuaIly.
From the waste products of the
farm and college, 1875 hogs are
being fed. No corn at all is given
to them.
AS to the corn crop every par
ticle is fed to the COWS and to the
stock, nothing being wasted. The
cattle like the ensilage, which
produces a fine quality of the
richest milk.
During the past year the sup
erintendent, MIR. Buist, expended
S12, $50. 63, while the receipts
amount to $12, $40. 81. This makes
a good showing, and when it is
remembered that great improve
ments have been made and that
the girls have been given the
choicest farm produce. 1t must he
pronounced splendid enterprise.

Lying In State.
Body Of Late Pope Prepared For
Nine Days Mourning Con
clave Of Cardinals Or,
dered August 3.

and unique impressiveness the
ceremonies which follow the de-
mise of a pope began today, and
although conducted in private,
were attended by many. The
nine cardinals assembled in the
apostolicpalace to view the re-
mains and officially pronounce
him dead Oreglia has put aside
cardinals robes as sign of mourn
ing and was gowned entirely IN
white. The other cardinals wore
crimson robes with violet collars
indicative of mourning.
Within the death chamber Law,
with a white veil over his face on
the bed, the late pope, aud for
this mornings function, the bed
room had been transformed into
mortuary,chapel with the altar
at one end, having in the center
the .crucifix surrounded by six
Ii 3hted clndles.
~ Thrice was the question asked:
cart thou really dead, Holy Fa-
ther," and being no response it
was announced: "The pope is
really dead" The body was
sprinkled with holy water, the
fisherman's ring broken and Rome
with all the Catholic world will
mourn nine days.
During the night the body of
Pope Leo XIII lay on the bed in
the vatican where his life went
out, and this morning Drs. Lap
poni and Mazzoni, under the di ,
rection of the penitentiaries and
attaches and the St. Peters Fran
ciscan monks, began embalming
the body and preparing it for ly,
ing in state.
The princes of the church are
all engaged in active plans for a
great impressive ceremon y mark
ing the beginning of the nine
days funeral services over the
late pontlff.
The conclave to elect Pope
Leo's successor convenes in the
vatican on August 3. This date
is calculated by counting ten days,
exclusive of Sunday, from today
when the death of the pontiff was
officially certified to by the Gamer.
lengo or papal chamberlain.
1t is runlored that Pope Lee
has left number of bulls which
radically change the procedure of
the conclave and that Cardinal
Gibbons remains among the fav.
ored candidates for election to the
papacy.

Rushing to the
Rescue of Labor.

indianapolis, April %. ''Mr Han
mas rushing to the rescue of organiz-
ed labor is, when you come to think
of it. somewhat astonishing spec
tacle.'' said Mr.. ID. NJ. Parry today,
when asked for his opinion as to the
attack made on his labor position
by Senator Hanna at the banquet of
the Amalgamated Steel Workers at
Columbus.
But then a good deal can be for
given man who is in the midst of a
trying campaign especially when he
has recently been defeated by caDdi-
date like Tom johnson.
In the campaign of 1898, the very
man that Senator Hanna extolls as
the able leader of organized labor
issued a circular demanding in the
name of all the wealth producers of
the country, the remonetization of
silver, and because he, as chairman
of the national republican committee
did all he could in support of the
gold standard he was lampooned and
abused worse than any man before or
. SlHCt ny tntSo NtIy lntll, WHOSt
friendship he SO assiduously seeks.
1.-The genesis of Mr. Hanna from
an energetic business man with la
Dor record not particularly distin-
guished for leniency into political
leader and finally a United States
senator who is the leading spirit if
not the founder of civic federation,
is a remarkable instance of what the
political bee will make man do
when it gets to buzzing in his bon
net. Who knows where the metamor-
phosis of Mr. H anna will end?
lis it possible that he is to become
a convert to all the leading tenets of
trades unionism? AS good union
man, he may yet think it incumbent
upon him to look with an indulgent
eye upon Organism, and am almost
inclined to believe it an opportune
time to make the suggestion that he
be the nxet running mate OF Mr.. Bryan.
Bryan and Hanna, How is that for
a ticket.
''There was very little argument in
Mr.. Hannas speech. He takes up the
paper which has met the approval of
80 per cent of the manufacturers of
the country as being a fair expo sition
of the socialistic tendencies and what
Carroll d. Wright calls the damnable
practices of trades unionism. and
makes what l think the country will
hold as poor attempt to answer it.
He read section of this paper, and
then denies it is true, and turns
round after sneering at the writer
and says in the manner of the ordinary
stump speaker, Boys, isn't that ~
OF course the boys send up an up
roarous shout of applause-th he
patted this man ON the head, and then
that one, called Mr.. Shaffer brother
and otherwise conducted himself as
the presiding genius at love feast
''This method of disposing of one
of the most serious questions of the
day probably takes with the kind of
men that he was addressing, but |
cannot help feeling that the rest of
the country would have been better
satisfied with more dignified treat
ment of the labor problem. After
the manner of a pettifogging lawyer
he picked out couple of paragraphs
of my report. held them up to ridi-
cule and then passed ON to his own
ideas as to the joint agreement and
the legal responsibilities of labor uni
ons. evading all the main points
brought out in my address.
''If there is any more in Mr.. Han
mas speech, fail to find it.
