Wife of Harlem Restaurant Keeper Gets Big
Fortune by the Death Of Brother.

A windfall has come to the family of
Sigmund Wolkoviskie, who was once a
citizen of this town. Our readers will
remember the Wolkoviskie family, Mr..
Wolkoviskie kept a saloon and was
driven out of the business by the dis
pensary law. He moved to New York,
and like a great many foreigners with
tongue-tangling names, changed his, by
dropping part of it, and assuming the
name of ''Wolk." Since they moved
from here, their daughter Miss Tillie
was married, and upon her wedding
cards received by friends here was the
name of "Wolk." Mrs. Wolkoviskie's
name is Jennie, and when resident of
this town, often spoke of brother who
was in distant land. We believe the
parties referred to in the accompany
ing article is the Wolkoviskie family
formerly of Manning.
New York, September Mrs Jen-
ME Wolk. wife of Harlem restaurant
keeper, is rejoicing over the prospect
OF obtaining fortune through the
death of a brother known as ''dia-
mond King" in South Africa. Mrs.
Wolk received the news IN letter
from Durham, Natal, and her lawyer,
BENJAMIN Baker. expects soon to go
over to look after the estate. Accord
ing to Lawyer Baker the amount OF the
fortune is close upon s20,000,000.
It was left by Mrs. Wolk's brother,
Joseph Asch, who thirty years ago
| lived in this city. He had a disagree
ment with his family and ran away.
None of the family gave him any en-
couragement when he went away eS-
cept his Younger sister, now Mrs. Wolk,
with whom he was favorite. She IS
the only one in the family to whom he
ever wrote, although he has three
brothers and another sister still living.
Mrs. Wolk received occasional letters
from him after he had settled at Kim
berley, South Africa, and knew that
he was doing well, but had no idea OF
the extentof his wealth. She last heard
from him about three years ago, and
had not heard another word until last
week, when letter came from friend
of the runaway boy, saying that he was
dead, and that in his last breath he
had designated his sister as his heir.
Mrs. Wolk is satisfied that the letter
and the statement about the fortune
are genuine. BY cable inquiries Law
yer Baker has since learned that Joseph
| Asch, the dead man, was unquestlon-
ably Mrs. Wolk's brother. His infor-
nation, he says, is to the effect that
Asch became interested in diamond
properties in Kimberley more than
twenty years ago when he first went to
South Africa, and that his holdings
and income steadily increased.-Water-

The public schools all over the

The public schools all over the
country are now opening up and
we hope the trustees will take
enough interest in their duties
to confer with the teachers as to
the course of studies. It seems
to be fashionable to not require
such Insignificant studies as
arithmetic and spelling, these
are given to the little children,
but as soon as a girl can wear a
waist and skirt or a boy can
lengthen his trousers, the spell
ing book is discarded and the
arithmetic scorned. They tell
US algebra, Latin and philosophy
is what should be taught. We
agree with them, after a child
has first had ground into it the
rudiments of an education, and
what are these: "Readin', 'ritin'
and 'rithmetic." We feel a pride
in our school and earnestly hope
to see it the first in the State,
but we can never expect to reach
the goal if the structures foun-

dation is not carefully looked
after. It is the duty of the trus-
tees to look after this, and it is
also the duty of the trustees to
see to it that teachers teach, and
are not merely recitation hear
ers. The people are heavily
taxed for educational purposes
and they have placed the care of
the schools in the hands of trus.
tees, who should watch the edu-
cational interests with Jealous
care.
We have looked over the
marks made at the examinations
for college entrance by gradu-
ates of our public schools: and
we say it is simply appalling, 40,
so, 60 out of a possible 100, and
then tell US these children have
been properly taught: Advanc-
ing a child to a higher grade is
not necessarily educating that
child, what is needed more than
advancement is to be sure the
child knows what it has passed
through. Let thoroughness be
the motto of all our schools, even
if a child is never able to gradu-
ate.

The second primary is over
with all of it's disgusting accom-.
paniments. It was indeed dis
tressing to witness the debauche.
ry on the eve of the election.
Voters boldly hourished about
quart bottles Of whiskey. and
many of them are little removed
from poverty, yet they 'toted
in their hip pockets the smaller
size TASKS, and IN their hands
the quart size, Who paid for
this debauch we do not know,
but it is evident the money was
furnished by men seeking politi-
cal preferment. The country is
in a bad fix indeed when it's man
hood is bartered away at the
neck of a whiskey bottle. The
man who can devise a scheme
which will put a stop to this de-
moralizing practice will deserve
a monument to his memory.

The political future Of the edi-
tor has been threatened because
of his position upon certain ques-
tions, to which we reply that
whenever we shape our opinions,
like the sailor trims his sails-to
catch the favorable breeze-he
shall feel that his usefulness as
an editor is at an end, and that
the people prefer one who does
not write from his heart, but to
please in order to catch the dol
lars. This editor will always be
fouud trying to counsel honestly,
deception is not a part of his
makeup, and if his political ca
reer suffers, let it be thoroughly
known that his self-respect will
be enhanced. We would rather
have the respect Of our readers
than their votes for any Office on
earth, and we cannot merit their
respect; if we bend about as a
willow twig, or permit our views
to be guided by the effect they
will have upon our political am
bltions.
Again, those who think we
are seeking political preferment
are entirely mistaken, we are
not, but it is our ambition to re-
tain the high esteem Of the peo-
ple to whom we owe all that we
are, and with this end in view
we are striving to serve them
corscientiously without fear or
favor and without any thought
of a political future.

ALL OVER!

AS Will be seen from examln-
inc the election returns, the Sec
ond primary resulted in the cleo
ton Of D. J. Bradham and D. L.
Green as Representatives, E. B.
Gamble, Sheriff, A. I. Barron,
Clerk of Court, T. c. Owens,
County Supervisor, W T. Tobias,
Coroner, S. P. Holiday, Superin-
tendent of Education, L. J. Net.
ties, Magistrate at Foreston, and
J. S. Sellers, Magistrate at Sa'
lem. It is especially gratifying
tous that Mr.. Green of Salem was
elected, and we believe he will
acouit himself with honor to his
county. Wedid notfavor the elec-
ton Of Capt. Bradham for reasons
already given. He has received a
majority vote and is therefore
the majority's choice. When the
General Assembly is in session
we will watch the proceedings
and report them with the utmost
impartiality. It shall be our
privilege to agree. with the posi-
tions Of our entire delegation
whenever their acts will justify
it, but, without regard to who
they may be, we shall critislze
their acts whenever in our judg,
ment such acts deserve it: The
editor Of the TINES will not per,
nit his opposition to any man
or set of men to cause him to be
unjust to them, and he hopes
that it will be his pleasure to be
able to say truthfully that the
Representatives chosen have car,
ried out their trusts faithfully.
The county officers chosen, will,
we have no doubt make good
and efficient officers. They are
GOOD men, and as their work is
on the routine and clerical order,
there Will be nothing to watch
except their personal conduct,
We are certainly glad the prima:
ry is over. and hope the next
state convention will correc1
some evils in the system.
