Kimmswick, No. April 3O-The fast morning
train on the ST. Louis Iron Mountain and South
ern Railroad. known as No. Is running as a
Worlds Fair special. was wrecked one mile and
a half from here to-day. The engine struck an
open switch. and. with the exception OF the last
sleeper, all the coaches were thrown from the
tracks. Nine dead bodies have been removed
from the wreck. only two OF whIch-those Of the
engineer, Bailey. and Mr.. Tabor the master
mechanic Of the road-have been identified. Six
passengers were seriously injured, and twenty
suffering minor wounds. The fireman, Gum
pert fatally injured. 1t is believed that
the list OF dead and injured will reach fifty.
The wreck occurred while the train was going
at an excessive rate % speed. Last night there
was trouble with a freight car on one Of the
fast trains, and it was necessary to abandon it
on the main line near wickes siding. Orders
were issued for all trains to use the switch at
that point instead Of the main line. Five trains
passed the siding in the interval between the
breakdown Of the freight car and the arrival OF
No. Is.
Conductor Austin Of No. IS says that he read
the order to the engineer and handed a copy to
him. The officials of the road cannot account
for the fact that the train approached the siding
at the high speed at which 1t must have been
going to cause the damage it did. The engine

all murmurings, doubts and difficult
ties. say no-no. relyin g upon the
goodness and faithfulness of al
mighty God our college must and
shall live-for for her to cease to exist
is to wound and to cripple the church
in her mos vital part.
We hear suggestion after sugges-
ton from these faithful sons and
daughters as to how she shall con-
tinue to exist. and as result OF
these efforts we see the institution
| leaving her new home and vending
her way toward the Blue Ridge
mountains and settling down in
small building in the little town Of
Walhalla. and here we witness her
under the most trying circumstances,
doing small but in many respects
a good. great and excellent work;
the results of that work live to this
dav and will never die, some OF the
evidences of which we behold here
and there all about US.
Oh! what trying years were these
who but remembers them as some
of us do. and now looks out upon
this campus and beholds the beautl-
full and soul-inspiring picture that
meets ones eyes. but what is ready
with a heart overhowing with graft
tude, to say thank God, the prayers
OF the friends OF the college have
been answered and we have goodly
heritage
And now that God has enabled his
servants to bring the institution over
so many rough places and through
so many difficulties are there any
who desire the prosperity OF the COL
lege that will fail to say from their
hearts this God is Our God forever
and ever"-in Him we trust and in
Him we look for greater and grander
results.
But let us just for moment re-
turn to the picture laid at Walhalla,
for it will not do us any harm, but
should do us great good.
We see the Board Of Trustees
meeting year after year, and we heal
the same hard difficult question being
propounded at each one Of these
meetings-"What shall we do to
keep in existence Newberry college"
How shall we proceed to raise suttl-
cient funds to keep with us Our pro-
fessors, for they are resignlng at the
close of every session?
At all of these meetings instr
mountable difficulties seem to rise up
before us, but especially at one time
not a single ray OF light could be
seen shining through the surround
ing darkness. At this time when
all hope seemed to be gone, we hear
that noble. generous faithful church
worker, Capt, Geo. S. Hacker OF
Charleston, S. c., now gone to his
reward, saying, "Brethren, as human
beings we can see no way out OF
this darkness, let us earnestly engage
in prayer and ask Him who is all
wise. faithful and nerciful, to guide
and direct us.
This was done and after this the
! Newbcrry and Edgeheld conferences
held Joint meeting and this was the
way it seems that God devised for
the rescue OF the college.
During these dark days there were
two professors that never resigned-
that never gave up hope that
never seemed to tire in making sacri-
fees for the college, Shall I call
their names? Dr.. J. P. Smeltzcr and
DR.. Geo. w. Holland Oh! how fit

HOLLAND HALL DEDICATED.
Dignihed and Impressive Ceremonies
Marked Beginning OF New
Epoch for College.

Before a large and distinguish ID
gathering of representative citizens
of South Carolina, with deeply I'M
pressive and appropriate ceremonies,
the new Holland Hall was dedicated
Monday night to the cause OF higher
education. The con1modious auditor
iun1 OF the building was filled to
overhowing with students, citizens,
alumni visitors, friends OF NeWberry
college. Governor Hayward pre-
sided, and eloquent addresses were
made by several gentlemen, the prin-
ciple effort of the evening being that
of the Rev. DR.. 4. G. Voigt, dean of
the Lutheran Theological seminary
at Mount Pleasant
The dedication OF this building
marks an epoch in the history OF the
institution. 1t is builded not only
for the great present, but for a
greater future which surely lies "be-
vond the reach of vision and within the
providence of God" The hall is
ample and adequate for all present
needs, but when the present has been
outgrown and many equipments OF
of the present shall have been cast
aside. this building will still be large
enough and good enough to
satisfy all needs and keep
pace with all normal growth. 1t
was planned and erected by far-see-
ing men who believed in contin'
uous growth and a magnificent des-
tiny for the institution. The hall
itself now stands complete as d
pledge for the continuance of this
expansion.
The exercises were OF a
dignity BETTING the occasion. The
Rev. J. A. Sigh, who introduced
the governor, spoke eloquently and
strongly. He has been president OF
the board of trustees OF the college
for years and has always evinced q
deep and abiding interest in the in
stitution's welfare. He said:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Before introducing the distinguish
ed gentleman who is to preside at
this important and interesting meet
ing, I beg your indulgence for few
moments to give expression to a few
Of the many thoughts that this occa-
sion has suggested to my mind.
Newberry college, as college, has
existed for about IS years, and dur
ing those years many have been the
ups and downs in her history.
Through the eye of memory we
see standing in the latter part of
1888, where the Smeltzer Hall now
stands. large and beautiful structure
just completed, and during the years
of 1S5o-6o and oI we see large num-
Der of students. the greatest number
being about 40, every morning and
afternoon, vending their way to and
from that building. We see in the
latter part of 1861 and during 62 and
IS numbers OF those same young men
at the sound OF the tocsin OF war
leaving the college for the tented
fields, many, many, never to return.
At the close of that dreadful war,
we see that same beautiful building
torn, battered, crumbling away, fall
ing to the ground We hear the
church asking what now? What shall
be done? Shall we give up our lnstl-
tuition, the hope and pride of our
fathers. who laid its first foundations
in the thirties at Lexington court
house.
Shall the prayers of those fathers,
and our mothers too, and the pray
ers of those who hoped for greater
things, for more glorious results by
