One Way TO Catch Ducks.

The Springfield, Minn., Advance
gives the following information con-
cerning the novel manner in which a
farmer in that vicinity secured his
share Of the feathery flock, although he
was a very poor shot. The farmers
home is situated near slough and the
birds were too willy for him to get close
enough to get shot at them. He had
a bunch Of surplus pumpkins on his
farm and conceived the idea, concern
ing them, that he at once put into exc
cution. He dumped load of them in
to the pond and waited until the ducks
became used to the innovation, then he
followed out a huge one, making holes
for his eyes and breathing aperture
and placing it over his head jumped in
to the lake. When the ducks settled
down he grabbed them one by one by
the feet until he had the whole flock in
his possession. Be has ducks to give
away now. It is lamentable state of
affairs that the local nimrods who have
recently spent several weeks in the vic
Unity of Swan Lake, were not aware of
ofthis mode of procedure. They would
have been able with such contrivance
to have bagged enough game to ward
off the friendly taunts they received
from those who were aware of their ill
luck. =; !.

board of trustees, have asked the At
torney General through the State Su
perintendont Of Education for an in
depreciation of the new Act creating

The point seems to be that Clemson
does not want 124 froc scholarships
at one time, especially as they would
probably remain for four years. The
Act gives them 500 each year and
tuition. What the Clemson authori-
ties wish to know is if some Of these
scholarships can be taken up in 1904

iic manager Of the Southern Railway,
died at his home in Washington, ID.
c.. last Saturday night Of pneumonia,
after an illness of only three days,
and the announcement of his death
was great shock to his many friends
throughout the country. Col. Turk
was about 55 years Of agc and a native
of Virginia. He had been with tho
Southern Railway for twenty one
years, having for long period been
general passenger agent before being
promoted to the position Of traffic
manager. He was well known through
out the South, and was ever ready to
lend his influence for its development
and progress. He was cmincntly
qualified for the duties Of his official
position, and b. his genial, social dis
position made u friend Of every ac-

In suit against the Southern Rail
way in the Court of Common Pleas at
Greenville recently, Mrs. Susie L..
Franklin, of Newberry, s. c., was
given verdict for s25, 900 damages
for shock to her nervous system, the
result Of being insulted on the train
while on her way to Atlanta by q fel-
low passenger. This sum, it must be
conceded, is big penalty for the rail.
roads part in this occurrence, since
the offender was in no way connected
with the railroad. The man sat with
his arm around the woman's waist,
according to her own testimony, and
there was no outcry or demonstration
Of displeasure, and the conductor, ss
he testified in the court, had no means
of knowing that the parties were not
ultimate acquaintances and that the
conduct of the man was Objectionable
to the lady, until she finally appealed
to him and he promptly took action
looking to her protection. The Green.
vile jury has established bad pre-.
cedent, and any sane man who will
read thetestimony will condemn the
verdict as an outrage on justice. Had
the suit been against the individual
himself, the verdict would probably
have been just one. The Southern
Railway had nothing to do with this
affair, and it should not be held re-
sponsicle for it.. If such an incident
were to happen on the streets Of any
city, would the municipal government
Of the city be liable for any damages
resulting? We think not, and we do
mot believe any sensible jury would
/ren Ter verdict against it. The de.
fe:,dant company has appealed from
the verdict, and we hope the, verdict
will be set aside and the company
given nes trial before jury com.
posed Of sensible mon.

The growth Of immigration into this
country, as shown in the annual re-
port Of Commissioner. General Frank
j. Sargent, shows that the total num-
Der of foreigners who arrived into this
country from Europe and Asia in the
past year was 921, ,3l5, or 1O5 ,0l3 more
than the greatest number reported for
any one year heretofore. Of this enOr-
nous total the stccragn immigration is
placed at 875, ,046 persons, or thirty
two per cent. ia excess Of the prcccd-
ing year. Of the number who came
to America last year, only 73 of them
settled in South Carolina. The State
now has live, progressive immigra-
tion commissioner in Col. +. j. Wat
son, who has recently visited New
York ia the interest Of his work, and
we may expect large increase this

will be induced TO settle in South
