The Hampton Monument.

The people OF Newberry have nev-

worthy cause when it was presented
to them in the proper light and the
neat sum raised by the committee in
Newberrv this week In aid Of the
Hampton monument fund is very
gratifying. But tbs contribution is
not as large as it should be. and lacks
much OF being Newberrys full ap-
portionrent. The amount contrlbU-
ted by popular subscription should
not fall below one hundred dollars.
at the very least, and ought to reach
two hundred dollars or more i'll the

Itsis true there vii! be no returns

contributed. It is sentiment pure ana

peoAe out OF the darkest period in

andS and thousands OF brave soldiers
whSs followed where Wade Hampton
led lsnd who made sacrifices just as
great and who are deserving of no

with messages making inquiries

that the woman was the rankest kind

story next morning and it caused a
genuine sensation, but the woman
never lost her grip. driving out that
afternoon with her four-in-hand.
Late that night Bruffey was in the

TO SAVE LIFE.
Wonderful Possibilities Of a Boat and
a Belt.


An interesting report has been received
at the State Department from United States
Consul George H. Jackson at La Rochelle,
France, on two new appliances for saving
life a. sea, which are being perfected in
France They are the Gros life belt. or
life preserver, and the Henry Hfeboat.
The Iifeboat is a most ingenious struc-
ture 1t is boat with long slit In the
bottom to let out the water that comes over
the sides or gets into the boat IN any oIhe e.,
manner. There are two concavei steel or
galvanized iron shells, the smaller super
imposed in such manner that the concav-
tiles are uppermost. and leaving "a large
air space between them. This air space is
divided into one forward, one aft and
twelve lateral water-tight compartments
|. In the bottom Of the boat is long slit
or opening, extending the whole length OF
the space intended for the passengers ana
crew, and is really case for a center
board. 1t is, however, much wider than
necessary for that purpose, and Is intended
partly to empty the boat and partly TO hcid
a centerboard of thin steel weighted with a
600 pound bulb of nodded lead
These boats are fitted with oars and sails,
and one of the features of recent expert
ments at La Rochelle was the maneuvering
of what Is claimed to be the first automoolie
lifeboat.! 1t was furnished with double
cylinder, twelve-horse' power gasoline en-
CINE, which gave a speed OF SIX Knots an
hour. This engine cannot be reversed, but
|
blades can be reversed instead, which pro-
duces the same result. The claims for the
Henry lifeboat are that it is unsuitable
and cannot be upset.
The Gros life belt Is also ingenious. 1t
consists of a series of four small, fat sacs,
circular in shape and connected by tube.
The belt is worn under the arms, two or
the pouches rest against the back, and the
others on the breast. Both ends of the
tube are inclosed in small metallic cylin-
ders, each of which contains charge of
carbide of calcium. The belt is invisible and
can be worn by passenger during an en-
tire voyage without Inconvenience and
without being noticed by the other pas
sengers. Experiments with this belt were
conducted at La Rochelle.
man wearing one of these belts fell
overheard and sank. He Immediately arose
to the surface and continued to float, head
and shoulders out of the water and both
arms in the air. 1t was estimated that two
seconds only elapsed from the instant the
water touched the carbide until the sacs
were filled with sufficient gas to keep the
man af1oat. 1t is easily understood that
water added to the carbide of calcium pro-
duces acetylene. The consul says the ex-
periments were very successful and demon
strated the wonderful possibilities of the
lffe-saving belt.

The Future of the Bible.
Canon Hensley Henson, in the Contemporary

| Canon Hensley Henson, in the Contemporary Re-
view.
1t is no doubt the case that the masses of
Christian people are yet, for the most part,
untroubled by what are called critical ques-
tions. They still listen to the lessons read
in church with acquiescence. and even with
interest but there are many signs that this
is changing fast. Any clergyman who takes
the trouble to find out what his parish1oners
really think about the narratives of the Ola
Testament will make some surprising dis
coveries. He will find that the more
thoughtful and sensitive people are often
seriously troubled by what they hear, that
coarser minds are moved to contempt,
greatly to their own moral injury. 1t is
becoming clear that in the interest Of Chris
tianity itself ecclesiastical usage ought
more faithfully to reflect the actual opinion
about the Bible which now" Obtains A
drastic revision of the dictionary would
seem to be urgently called for, estih
The very circumstance that 80 many OF
our people are prepared to sacqaiesce In
what they hear from the lectern, and even
to believe that in some way or other what
they hear Is divinely true, makes the pres
ent indiscriminate reading of the Bible In
public an extremely periiouss proceeding.
Educated men, as we have already indicat-
ed, have at their disposal means BY which
to escape from the perplexitfes stirred In
their minds by the incredible, puerile or de-
moralizing narratives which the Old Testa-
ment contains. But these resources are not
accessible, and will never be ACCESSIBLE to
the masses of the people. Theynhav no
other course open to them wheni the diff
Guilty is brought home either by their own
intelligence or by the action OF others. than
the violent and unhappy course of repudiat-
ing the Bible altogether. The transition is
prompt and obvious in untufored minds
from a sacred volume, too sacred for dig
cussion, to pack of lies. too gross for toll
GRAFTON. The principle OF selection on the
basis Of what is edifying is, OF course. IA
miliar enough in the church 1t Is implied
in the whole notion of an Official dictionary
There are passages-many passages-which
the church does not read in public. There
is. therefore, nothing revolutionary In ask
ing for another and far more drastic re-
vision.
