Others to suffer are those who have TO

because of the treacherOus condition OF

 You may consult a dozen authorities and Hot find two that agree in the measurement of Juan Fernandez, nor hardly one which tells you the truth, viz, that here is not merely an island, but a group of them, which are collec- lively known as Juan Fernandez" be- cause discovered by a Spaniard of that name. Some books state that .the is- land,'' as if there were but one, is fifty miles long by thirty broad, and others reduce it to less than half that size. In reality there are two islands of nearly equal dimensions, and several smaller ones. The largest-that lying nearest the main land and the one commonly visited-is no doubt that which De Foes hero inhabited, and is twelve miles long by six or sevenwide. Though known to the world at large as Juan Fernan- dez,' it is hereabout called Masatierra, to distinguish it from the next island in size, which is ninety miles distant and named Masafuero.

motioned him to stay, and he sat down
and bowed his head while Moore read
the letter.
His tones Were clear and steady TIL
he came to tho last words, when Ills
voice broke and ended In a sob:
"And, oh, Dnvie, laddic, if ever your
heart turns home again remember the
door Is v open, and it's JOY you'll
bring with you to us ALL"
Bruce lay quite still and from his
closed eyes big tears ran down his
checks. 1t was his last farewell to
anchor TO all things pure here and to
heaven beyond.
He took the letter from Moore's
hand, put it with difficulty to his lips,
and then, touching the open Bible, he
said between his breaths:
"It's-very like-there's really-no
fear, Is therc?"
"No, nor said Moore, with cheerful,
confident voice, though his tears Were
flowing. mo ear OF your welcome"

What shall 1 tell her2" I asked, try
ing to recall him. But the message
was never given. He moved one hand
slowly toward the Duke till 1t touched
his head. The Duke lifted his face and
looked down at him, and then he did
Il beautiful thing for which 1 forgave
him much. He stopped oye and kissed
the lips grown so white, and then the
brow. The light came back into the
eyes of the dying man, he smiled ono
more and smilingly faced toward the
great beyond. And the morning air,
fresh from the sun tipped mountains
and sweet with the scent Of the June
roses, came blowing soft and cool
through the open window upon the
dead, smiling face. And 1t seemed at
ting so. 1t came from the land Of the
morning.
Again the Duke did n beautiful
thing; for, reaching across his dead
friend, he offered his hand to the Pilot.
"AIr. Moore" he said with fine cour.
tesy, you are a brave man and q good
man. l ask your forgiveness for mucl,

Again The College.

At least n member of the Episco-
pal Church has told THE ADvERTISER
that Laurens possesses attractions for
the proposed Diocesan College for
girls which no other South Carolina
town has, 1t is betraying no n
dence to say that this gentleman will
be influential in selecting the site. He
suggests that Laurens is in the center
OF the densely populated up%-country OF
South Carolina and that 1t has railroad
connections distinctly superior to any
other city likely TO BIS Ia the contest,
with the exception of those not sit
uated In this desirable section. He ad-
ded that In his judgment the commit
tee on selection would not be guided
wholly or even considerably by the
amount of my city's bid in money. The
subscription Of any town, however
large, he said, would be necessarily
small in relation to the sum required
to support the school from year to year.
Consequently the committee will be
very careful not to chose a location
likely to be found Objectionable in af-
ter years merely for the sake Of a
picayuue difference in the size OF the
offer. The people of Laurens may rest
assured that # they desire this college
they will at least enter the contest
with the advantage OF position over
all others.
When the city Of Greenwood failed
to obtain the Columbia Female College
two years ago its business men did not
relax their efforts. Greenwood felt the
need of a girls college aud its people
of all denominations united to get 1t.
One moath ago the cornerstone OF their
college was laid and tue clergymen OF
all churches participated In the cere-
monies incident to that suspicious in
augural OF Greenwood's enterprise.
The people of Greenwood are aware
that the college of any Christian de-
nomination will be a center for the
radiation of elevating influences as we'll
as a feeder to the tills o. merchants
and other business men. Therefore
they are not divided in the determine
ton 10 make this college a pronounced
success and Episcopalians, Bsptists
and Presbyterians are with the Metho'
dists of that city In forwarding the
building and prosperity of the school
Certainly never before has this COM
munity had the opportunity that IL has
now to gain the cooperation OF a pow
erful and influential body Of Christians
in the establishment of an institution
at which every girl of Laurens of this
and future generations may receive q
collegiate education Of the first class at
the doors of her home.
The committee in charge of this mat
ter is to meet and Organizs early In
Juno. If Laurens purposes to ask for
the college there Is no time for delay.
We believe that the College may be OBJ
tanned for Laurens for a sum of money
far less than that guaranteed for the
Methodist College two years ago.
Unless the initiative is taken now by
the business men of the community,
THE ADVERTISER will not trespass up.
on the patience Of its readers with any
further word on the subject.

that we bow In submission to the will
of the Almighty In this sad sfiiotion.
whereby we are reminded of our transi.
tory nature and the brief duration of
our existence in this earthly Taberns.

Resolved: That in the death OF COM
papion III. w. Anderson, Masonry has

For q "Civic Leagues"

THE ADVERTISER sincerely wishes
that the ladies of L,urens would adopt
it's suggestion of organizing a civic
league. AS we have already said, Lau-
rens is naturally one OF the most pic
turesque towns in this or any state. BY
the expenditure of q small amount OF
money which we believe would be
gladly appropriated by the city coun-
Gil and which could be supplemented
by subscriptions the public square and
some of the leading streets could be
made artlstically attractive. Numerous
other South Car)lin, towns, with the
ladies leading in the work, have al
ready taken this matter IN hand
The truth is that in several particu-
lars Laurens seems to bo tagging In
public spirit and unless u shOrtcom.
ings are corrected their influence will
be felt on the growth and business
prosperity of the community. The time
has come when South Carolina towns
are in sharp if generous competition
with each other and there are organ
izations in mos Of them eager and
vigilant to take advantage of all posi-
BILE opportunities.
In these days the cold foxey mer.
chant" cannot keep psce with the mer.
chant who seize, every expsdient to
increase his sales. The man OF an
cient methods is allowed to drop out of
the picsura and nobody knows or cares
when he is gone. Precisely the same
applies to communities, and IL We are
to have q city here, we must be up and
doing. The embellishments Of the pub
lie places OF Laursns is the proper task
of the ladies and they should not hesit-
ate to organize and begin their en-
deavors.
