OF mystery and contradiction, and truth lies it,-

the nations, the inevitable condition of world

wonder if, after all, the world was treated to a
huge joke when Nicholas III. summoned the ma.
tons to lay down their arms at The Hague. For
the same Nicholas H., who called Europe to stop
before the caataclysm burst upon the peoples, is
at this moment insulting free country with d
new despotism Of that kind which, in the words

HOME AGAIN.

The editor of The Herald returned last
Sunday evening from trip oftwo weeks.
First we attended the session of the grand
lodge knights of Pythias in Greenville,
and from there we joined a party of edi-
tors and went to St. Louis to visit the
Worlds Fair. The trip was a most de-
lightful one, our party most congenial
and jolly, and the sights seen would con-
sumo several weeks in the telling and
take all the space in our newspaper.
Next week we hope to tell our readers
something of interest to them about the
trip and the great Worlds Fair. We are
dead tired for one thing, and this issue is
gotten out almost entirely by ''the boys"
Then, too, our space is limited, for the
school commencements and sweet girl
graduates have the right of way this week.
But we are glad indeed to be at home
again. We we're never 50 glad to get
back to the old town, and we shall take up
our work again with renewed energy and
spirit, feeling how pleasant it is to be
among our friends again and to know
that in some measure at least The Herald
and it's editor occupy place in the hearts
of our people. For the many kindnesses
shown our Office force while away, We re-
turn grateful thanks.

GREENVlLLE AND CHICK SPRINGS.

1t was our pleasure to be a represent
ative from Bamberg lodge to the recent
session of the grand lodge, Knights OF
Pythias, in Greenville. 1t was our first
visit to this charming city which pulsates
and throbs with that energetic and pro-
gressive spirit characteristic of the towns
in the Piedmont section of this State,
Situated among the red hills, almost at
the foot of Paris Mountain, it is lovely
city, with handsome residences, beauti.
fully kept lawns, and number Of manu-
featuring enterprises. We were dissp-
pointed somewhat, however, in the busi-
ness houses. We rather expected larger
and more imposing buildings.
The people were delightfully."- kind and
hospitable to their visitors, and banquet
was rendered them out at Chick Springs
one evening during our stay. After a
trolly ride around the city, the large
party boarded the Southern railway train
to station about seven miles from town,
where wagons were in waiting to bear US
over the hills not far away to Chick
Springs, which is by the way one of the
most beautiful spots in all that lovely
country. On a high hill handsome
hotel has just been completed, costing
something like $4,000 or more. 1t is
equipped with electric lights, water
works, and all modern sanitary conven-
fences, many of the rooms having pri.
vate bath attached. The furniture is
birds eye maple, and the beds are white
enameled iron with felt mattresses.
Really, it is the only summer resort in
South Carolina where all modern con-
veniences are to be put at the disposal of
guests. There may be such places, but
we have not seen them. Every room is
an outside room, with large windows,
which will make it delightfully."- cool in
summer. The hotel is a monument to
the enterprise of Mr.. W. j. Thackston, a
real estate dealer in Greenville, who
organized the company which bought the
springs property and built the hotel.
Thackston is not only aprogressive young
business man but an all-round good fel-
low generally.
The banquet was served in the large
dining room, and while the supper was a
magnificent one, the very large crowd
made the waits rather long for course
affair. Then, too, the hotsl was not open
for the season, this being the first meal
served in the building. Some fine after
dinner speeches were made, but unfortu-
nately few of the speakers seemed to
have procured license to talk all night.
Receptions were rendered the grand
lodge on two evenings at Chicora and at
the Greenville Female College, which
were indeed pleasant occasions, the mar
ried men who had been benedicts for years
moving in and around the large rooms
crowded with pretty girls with all the airs
and graces of young men just beginning
to sprout moustache.
At the Greenville Female College, We
had the pleasure of shaking hands with
two fair Bamberg girls, Miss Ellzey, a
daughter of Mr.. G. c. Ellzey, of Denmark,
ond Mice Essie Free danohter of Clerk of
Court C. B. Free. We also had pleasant
meeting with our young friend, T. Grigs-
by Chandler, who is student at Furman
University.
