Furman Takes Clemson's Scalp.

Clemson April 9.-The score of Q to 1
in favor of Furman tells the story of to-
days game. Furman made her wo runs
in the fifth inning and Clemson her one
in the eighth. The game was one of the
prettiest ever seen here, and was wit
nessedsby a very large crowd. More than
seventy people came over from Green
Vile and did effective roofing for the
Furman team.
SO FAR as this correspondent could see,
there was nothing to mar the game.
There was no kicking and only one or
two little discussions of rules. In short,
it was sportsman-like game from be-
ginning to end. 1t was never certain
who would win until the last ball fell
into the hands of Furman's first base
man, Rice.
As to individual plays, there is nothing
much to say, because each man did all
that any player could be expected to do,
excepting few errors on chances that
were very hard.
In Laval Furman has one among the
best pitchers who has ever been pitted
against the Clemson team. He pitched
beautiful game and struck out ten men.
Dendy did the slab honors for Clemson,
playing his usual strong game, striking
out eight men. Goggans played well at
short, while Ellis made hard catches and
batted like veteran.
The score by innings follows:
Furman ...0 0 o 0 2 o 0 % 8
Clemson 30 o 0 0 1 OIL G 9
Snmmary-Struckout by Laval, 10; by
Dendy, 8. Bases ON balls, off laval, d;

Speeds Creek School Closes.

Speeds Creek, April lit was the
writer's pleasure to be present at the
closing of this progressive school, and
indeed it was a pleasure to be one day
with those kind people, the gay and
happy children and smiling teacher.
Early on Friday morning, In spite of
very disagreeable weather, children, pa
rents and friends of the school began to
arrive at the school house, which was
primitive forest scene, and as we gazed
on this work of art it reminded us Of
days long gone by, when we, too, were
happy children.
The morning was spent in pleasant
conversation by the older people, while
the happy little ones played games and
rambled amid the pines.
Promptly at l p. m. all repaired to the
school house where a bountful dinner
awaited them. After dinner all re- as
sembled in the school house to listen to
very interesting lecture, delivered by
w. w. Moss, who handled his subject in
his usual atfable manner.
Resolutions were passed by the pupils
and patrons of the school, expressing
their heartfelt thanks to Miss Richie for
her faithful and untiring work and sin
and earnetly desiring that she again be
their teacher.
Quite good game of base ball was
played by the young men, and the
way the young ladies cheered the boys
ono would suppose their best beaux W ere
among the players. Truly it was day
delightfully."- spent and will long be re-
membered as pleasant epoch In the
history of the school. A Friend.

Climatic Cures.


The influence of climatic conditions In
the cure of consumption is very much
overdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food diges-
tion, and a regular use of German Syrup.
Free expeotoration in the morning Is
made certain by German Syrup, 30 is n
good nights rest and the absence Of that
weakening cough and facilitating night
sweat. Restless nights and the exhaus-
tion due to coughing, the greatestdanger
aud dread of the oonsumptive, can be
prevented or stopped by taking German
Syrup liberally and regularly. Should
you be able to go to warmer cline, you
will find that of the thousands Of con
sumptives there, the few who are bepe-
flied and regain strength are those who
use German Syrup. Trial bottles, 25c

Waite Case Compromised.

One of the most interesting cases in
the Circuit Court this week was begun
on Thursday afternoon. The action was
brought by Mrs. Ella S. Waite, admins
tratrix, against the Atlanta and Char.
lotte Air Line Railway, claiming dam
ages on account of the death of her hns-
band, in the sum of S25, 900. The Plain.
Walhalla, and Mccullough & McSwain,
of this city. Cothran, Dean & Cothran
appeared for the railway.
A. Gibson Waite was killed at West
minister on the Both of November, 1902,
and 1T was alleged that his death was
due to the negligence of the railway and
its employees. Mr.. Waite was a mer-
chant at Seneca, and he had been spend
ing the day with friends and relatives at
Westminster, intending to return home
on No. 40, which was scheduled to pass
there about o'clock p. IN. The trains
were behind time, and the north bound
vestibule was running on the schedule of
No. 40, which Waite intended to take.
He had bought ticket and heard train
coming, which caused him to cross the
tracks 30 as to board the train on the
north side, which was required by the
railway. The vestibule was running at
high rate of speed, and just as Waite
crossed the track on which it was run
ming he was struck by the engine and
hurled some distance away against the
baggage room, resulting in instant death.
Tickets are purchased at the freight
depot on the south side of the railway,
and passengers are compelled to cross
the track to the north side in order to
get upon the trains. The people OF
Westminster have demonstrated against
this arrangement several times, but their
petitions were unavailiug, the railroad
authorities contending that the ground
on the north side is not adapted for the
removal of the depot, with the ticket
Office and waiting room. The counsel
for the Plaintiff insisted that the railway
has neglected and refused to remove
these dangers, while on the other hand
the railway denied the charges Cf neglect
and refusal, as the track is so situated
that incoming trains can be seen for
several hundred yards from the level
position occupied by tho depot yard.
number OF witnesses for the Plaintiff
were examined on Thursday, and when
the Court resumed business yesterday
morning 1t was announced that a com
promise had been agreed upon. The
counsel. for the railway proposed TO the
Plaintiff attorneys q payment of S7,75O
and the costs of the suit, which was ac-
cepted after brief consideration, and a
check for the full amount was paid to
Mr.. Jaynes In few hours after tho com
promise was made, which ended what
promised to be case of absorbing inte-
rest to all parties concerned Greenville
