SENATOR TILLMAN WILL BE PUT BACK
ON THE WINTHROP BOARD.
House Yesterday Killed The Haskell Bill
10 Abolish Special COurtS---The Work
Of Friday and Saturday.
Especial to Herald and News
Columbia, January 25.-The
house today killed Mr.. Haskell's
bill to abolish special courts.

Columbia, January Ex-senator
Is. K. Tillman having been legis-
lated off the board of trustees of
winthrop by mistake, DR.. Il. A.
Crawford, Of Rock Hill, who was
elected to succeed him, has ten
dered his resignation on this ac.
count, and the general assembly
must elect another member and of
course will put Mr.. Tillman back
on the board. DR.. Crawford de-
cllned in the following message {:
"The distinguished services of Sen
at"r Tillman to Winthrop College
render his continuance on the
board public necessity. | can not
accept the election in his stead and
hereby tender my resignation"
The mistake was due to con-
fusion as to the time Of expiration
OF the terms of the various men,
oers. 1t was not definitely known
what places on the board were be-
ing filled, and thus it was that Sen
ator Tillman was dropped from the
board and Mr.. Crawford chosen TO
succeed him.
The report gained circulation in
some way that in like manner Mr..
l.. a Sease, of Newberry county,
has been dropped from the Glenn
son board. This is clearly mis-.
take, as Mr.. Sease was elected in
1902 tor tor term Of four years.
AFTER TIE ELECTIONS.
The house got down to the rou-
tine work Of law-making immedi-
atelY after the elections and did a
hard days work on Friday.
The matter of labor contracts
came up for a long discussion. The
action taken is given in the edi-
torlal correspondence in this issue.
MIR. TribbIc's bill was passed cx-
empting all Confederate soldiers
and sailors who now receive a pen
sion from the State or aid from the
county, from the charge Of any Ii
cense for the carrying on any busi-
ness or profession within this State,
or any Village, city or town there
in.
There was also long discussion
on Mr.. Webb's bill to authorize
and require the directors of the
State penitentary to erect and
equip fertilizer plants and ware
houses for the manufacture and
sale of commercial fertilizers. The
bill was finally killed. Subsequent
ly, however, both houses passed
resolution looking to an inquiry by
the penitentiary authorities into
the advisabiiity Of the State going
into the fertilizer business. The
investigation is to be conducted
without expense to the State.
On Saturday the house took up
and disposed Of number of uncon-
tested matters and in this way local

llsh I24 beneficiary scholarships for
Clemson college, with an award of
TIoo to each of the SCHOLARSHIPS,
this money to be paid out Of the
resources OF Clemson college. The
idea IS to give preference to those
who take the agricultural cours and
TO award them to the most worthy
and needy candidates who have
made at least 60 per cent. on the
examinations.
1t was urged by those who
favored the scholarships that far
mers are now paying most of the
money which goes to the support
OF Clemson college while the far
mers' SONS are not receiving the
greater benefits. Mr.. Arthur kib.
Ter, Of Ncwberry, made strong
speech in favor Of the bill. No ac-
ton was taken on Saturday.
IN THE SENATE.
The senate on Friday devoted
most OF its time to the discussion
OF the shad bill, which has come up
each year for many years past.
Senator Walker, of Georgetown,
argued against the passage of the
bill, which would prevent the ship
ment Of shad from the State. Next
day Senator Ragsdale, Of Florence,
favored the bill, and it was finally
passed.

OF the hayward young girl who could
race the polished ball room OF sit for

with passion as intense as tnat of

could probably speak, Latin faster than
mad Italian can butcher English,
and who could possibly explain at the
first effort how much gold and silver
were required for Hiero's crown, was
moving onto a western claim. His
wagon stuck, in the mud and he called
to his assistance an illiterate black
smith, who taking couple Of scant-
lings fir I'm the wagon applied the
principle Of the lever to the load and
raised the wagon. Here practical
knowledge was worth much more than
theoretical. It is ever 20 In life.
The man with the book knowledge is
strocg. but the man who combines
with it the practical is certainly
stronger. The farmer who sows a
certain kind of grain expecting
crop because that crop grows in the
ground, can not equal the man who
plants certain crops with reference to
other conditions besides the fact that
they are planted in the ground. The
com oination of the theoretrlca with
the practical will make more useful
men and Women than one of these
alone. That is just what the little

Christmas morning is decidedly
amusing thing wnen the serious side

should possess such an article of lux
ury, will scheme al; sorts of ways to
keep you from guessing what she in
tends to give you on that memorable
event, while you will scheme all sorts
of ways to keep her from surmising
that you expect to palm off on her
some article you would have to buy
in the natural corrse of events in
housekeeping, and expect her to be
just as happy as the young woman
WAC has received her first engagement
ring. But the amusing thing is that
presents are given which come about
as far short of being useful as meers-
chaum pipe would be>to Gorilla. The
fancy of the giver and not that of the
receiver, is considered. Would it
net be better to send the money to
the receiver and permit him to make
his purchases to suit himself rather
than waste money on things he does
not want? But that is an innova-
ton, and it would not be tolerated
any more than would the custom of
giving your friend dime to buy
drink instead of giving MIN the
drink itself. This last application

powder displayed in abundance in
stead Of an attempt TO make the artifi

all the weaknesses, all the foibles of

gaze of the play goer. He is carried
to ecstacies by the comedy and melted
to tears py the drama. Yet he hardly
stops to think of the people who have

beings apart from ourselves. Yet all
