Should Pension Veteran Teach


The RECORDER is furnished
the following interesting article
which should appeal to every
school teacher in Highland coun-
ty;
The teachers Of Virginia expect
to bring before the next Legislature
a bill to pension the teachers Of the
state.
It's hoped that in the present
general educational re-awakening
it will not be forgotten that, after
all, the teacher is the school, and
that, while beautiful buildings
and fine apparatus are necessary,
the paramount need Of the school is
a teacher.
A good teacher as other good
things, costs money, and the state
does not at present pay its teachers
anything like adequate salaries.
Many things have entered into this
question of teachers salaries, not
ably public opinion, and the law OF
supply and demand, and other eco.
nomic problems.
This being true, it seems but an
act of justice that the state should
pension those. who have worn out
their lives in its service.
III some instances teachers are
retained in service because the pub
lie admits the pitifulness of turn
ing adrift WORKOUT but faithful
servant who has not received dur
ing the term of servic, sufficient
remuneration to have rendered it
possible for even the most provl-
dent to lay by enough to make her
INDEPENDENT in old age. Al
In every such case the injMv
is two-fold; to the child, WIZ;
titled to the best and ~
short of it; to Che teacAe s~a NV ont ont

Excessive anxiety for the fu-
.e can scarcely be oyer-estlmat-
3D..
Furthur, pension system, by
giving assurance Of provision for
old age, would tend to elevate the
profession of teaching by attract
ing able men and women and re-
tanning them during efficiency.
Many of the higher institutions
of learning have felt the need OF
freeing the mind of the teachers
from care as to his future, and
have begun to pension their pro-
fessors.
Mr.. Carnegie, in his recent gift
of a fund for pensioning COL
lege professors, recognizes TINS
need.
Germany, which admittedly, has
the best schools in the world, has
pensioned her teachers for more
than a 100 years and Mr.. Chas'
Francis Adams used to say. Inc
German teachers are the school
masters of the world"
In 1891, the National Educa-
tional Association passed a resolu-
ton recommending "the enactment
Of a law in the several states &c
permit and regulate the retirement
and pensioning Of professional
teachers.
Since, many states and cities
have adopted system of pension
ing their teachers. New jersey hav
ing the honor Of being the hrs
state in the Union to pass such
law. California and Maryland
pension all their veteran publi
school teachers. Massachusetts
Rhode Island, New York, Penn

News is to a certain extent along the
same line as the statement made by
Mr.. Bristow to me and he, too, it ap-
pears is opposed to the prohlbltlon1sts
or anti-dispensary people holding
convention to nominate OF suggest
candidates for State Offices. | think
he and Mr.. Bristow have both erred in
attending caucuses, but that IS mat
ter left for them to decide, although 1t
is difficult to see how they are gong
to help the anti-dispensary people IN
any of thee ounties in the state by
caucusing. The help they want now:
is to encourage the counties, (when
requested to do so,) to petition and
vote out the dispensaries where elec-
tons have not already been held, and
to speak out for the enforcement OF
the laws Of the state I would not have
referred to Mr.. Wallace's GARD, ex-
cept to give him credit for opposing
nominations, had he not raised a ques-
ton of veracity between him and my
self. He says I did not accuse him OF
treachery. When I was told OF MS
,nfaithfu1ness to me I could not be-
lieve it. but he heard was tracing
- ~ him and. knowing that / would
find it out, he sent for me and tried
to ,explain. I was hurt beyond ex-
preston, and talked equally as PLAIN
as I said in my interview in your pa
oer of the 2oth., and I did more, re-
duced it to writing, that there might
be no mistake how I felt about 1t.
am charitable enough to believe he re-
grets it, and I never allow myself 10
cherish for a day any bitterness to-
wards any man living. And as TINS
is the only experience OF its kind l
have ever had, and appreciate so
highly the friendship Of the men OF
Newberry and the state who nave
stood by me in everything I have done
in life, I will not let this prevent my
having confidence in their loyalty to

D1sPENsARY TRICK.
Messrs. Bellinger and Welch Deny
They Have any knowledge OF
Anyone's Intention not to
Answer Motion in Judge
: Pritchard's Court.

Columbia, October 26.-1n talking
about the pending dispensary ltlga-
ton before Judge Pritchard Messrs.
Bellinger and Welch tonight gave out
this statement:
Eyes we have noticed the reports
from Union, S. c., printed in the News
and Courier and the State to the effect
that if not answered the order to re-
open the dispensary would go into
effect, because of their non-appear-
ance
"This, of course, referring to the
rule to show cause recently issued by
Judge Pritchard in the case Of J. e.
Howell, OF w. D. Wilkins ct al, as
county board Of control for Union
county.
Call that we have to say in the mat
ter is simply this: The petition in
this case was published throughout
the state and was given out to the
press by ourselves. 1t was notice to
all of what our purpose was, and when
the hearing would be had. We know
nothing about the report, if report it
be, that the respondents in this case
may not appear, or that the order to
reooen the disDensarv will be allowed
to be taken by default.
1--WE desire that the county board of
Union county will appear and make
return 10 the rule, and that full
hearing may be had and the law prop
erly passed upon by the court, and we
have no doubt but that this will be
done. The trick play referred to in
today's State, will certainly meet no
encourag cement from us"

the shooting that Trotter continued
to slap his face, after he had several
times warned him to quit and alter

TWO FATAL ACCIDENTS.
White Boy Shot by Negro Boy, and
Negro Boy by Another Negro.

Columbia, October 26.-Hilkon
Sims, a white boy, about ten years
old, was shot and instantly killed to-
day. A little negro boy, Hal Gordon,
about nine years old, is responsible for
his death.
Young Sims, with Oscar Forde and
Alvin Sims, about the same age, were
in the woods near Benedict Institute,
They had with them single-barre]
shotgun. Some of the boys had sling
shots, and they all laid the gun aside
and were shooting at birds with their
sings. While engaged in this, the lit
tie negro came up and began handling
the gun, the other boys not noticing
him. Suddenly the gun fired and a
shot from it penetrated young Sims
chest, striking the heart, and killing
him instantly.
The other boys Immediately alarm
ed the neighborhood, but nothing
could be done for the unfortunate boy.
1T is presumed that the killing was
purely from care1essness and igno-
rance on the part of the little negro.
The coroner was duly notified.
The dead boy was the son o. Mr..
Jack Sims, who is employed at the
Southern railway shops. and who lives
in the eastern suburbs, on tic Two
Notch road.
Eugene Simpkins, colorad, WIS shot
and probably fatally wo 1nlel today
by Dave Elan, also colored. The al
fair occurred at house, 1,4o5 Lin: ok.
street, occupied by Dr.. Durham, col
ored, who was not present at the time.
The two negroes are relatives of rhe
doctor, and were on a visit to him.
Both are from Edgefield, having come
to the city Tuesday,.

SHOT TO DEATH IN COLUMBIA
The Fate of a Young Man from the
Leesville Section at the Hands
of a Neighbor.

Columbia, October 26.-James
Trotter, Jr., a young unmarried farm
er, of the Leesville section, was shot
through the heart at the Union sta
ton at 4:45 o'clock this afternoon, by
Wilmer Mitchell, about the same age,
and also of Leesville, the two being
fast friends. Dr. Smith, of Wards,
who happened to be present at the
time of the tragedy, pronounced life
extinct in the wounded man in less
than ten minutes, death resulting from
an internal hemmorhage The weapon
used was a 3S-calibre, the bullet en-
tering straight from the front. Tro1-

What Newspapers Are For.

Chicago Journal.
A correspondent requests that We
print some Of the striking things
great men have said about newspa-
pers; that is. sayings that em'body the
purpose and doings of the press. With
pleasure.
Bryant said:
*'The press is good or evil accord
ing to the character of those who di-
rect it. It is a mill that grinds all
that is put into its hopper. Fill the
hopper with poisoned grain and it viii
grind it to meal; but there is death ir
the bread"
James Parton said:
"The newspaper press is the peo-
ple's university. Half the readers in
Christendom read little else'
Jefferson said:
"The basis of our government being
the opinion Of the people, the very
first object should be to keep that
right; and were it left to me to de-
eide whether we should have a gov
ernment without newspapers Or news
papers without government, l
should not hesitate a moment to pre-
fer the 1atter.'
Cardinal Gibbons recently said:
''The dread of exposure in the pub
lie press keeps many a man sticking
close to the path of rectitude who 9TH
erwise would stray off into the by
ways of graft"

curved form depicted. 1t might be
lined with silk or sateen pasted fatty
down at the edges with Higgins col

the lining might consist of brown pa

so nice but would have one advan-
tage, it could be more easily replaced

strip of silk about IA yards long and
one-half yard wide, turn in to form a

A FEW FASHION NOTES.
Soft Kid Waistcoats Remain in Fa-
vor and Velvet Collars and
Cuffs Again Return.

In making plaits of any kind for trim
ming. the fact should be borne in mind
that it is good policy to leave the bast-
ings in the plaits until the garment is
entirely finished. Many home dress
makers are in too big a hurry to take
out basting threads. In buying a ready
made box plated or plated skirt,
it will be noticed that when it
reaches home the garment still
has the plaits stitched down
with hastings, and that ought to
be hint enough to induce the amateur
| to leave her hastings in place till she is
| almost ready to wear the garment. Of
course, this does not apply in the case of
hastings for seams or hens, but just for
those which are put to hold certain
things in place and which al just as
we'll remain in the garment till such
time as it is completed. Plaits in waists.
especially sleeves, can be left in, though
the temptation is strong in the amateur
to remove them and 'see how it looks
But the exercise of a little patience in
this respect means added comeliness to
the completed garment.
The soft kid waistcoat is as popular
as ever. 1t is generally made double
breasted, and cut away to take in a
chemisette of plated muslin and Valen-
ciennes lace, or one of coarse lace and
perhaps a rolled collar OF some colored
velvet. A touch of velvet is always g
welcome finish to a cloth frock, and or
a plain sleeve %buttoning tightly down tC
he wrist we often note a small, turned
back cuff of velvet to match the rolled
collar of velvet at the neck of the habil
bodice.
The changes that have been made il
tailor mades are not so great as those
that have been made in other branche:
OF dress. because for some time past thu
pioneers fr the sartorial world have de
termined that the tailor made frocl
should be plain in cut, With sleeves O
small, neat dimensions, and the nott
of elaboration is struck by ~braidings ant
similar trimmings.

the large blood vessels and causing an
excessive amount OF blood % go 20 the
brain. In such cases the patient must
sit upright; TO lie down would increase
the pressure. Next the stomach must
be unlOaded at once-warm water with
salt and mustard is most useful. The
hands and feet will usually be found
cold; battle them in hot water contain
ing mustard or ginger. Always loosen
the clothing about the neck and body
and allow abundance of fresh air.
When it is known that the attack is
not caused by overeating, the patient
may lie down with the head raised.
Enforce quietude and battle the ex-
tremities in hot water containing
stimulation, The bowls must be
neutrality-suspicious. of warm water con-
tanning salt and ginger being excellent.
Days may elapse before improvement
Is noticed. But the means OF relief
must be persisted in. and the patient
sustained b. frequent administrations
of broths or other soft or liquid nour-
ishing foods. If swallowing is too diff
icult s~ustenance by injections must
be resorted to. Feeble heart action
may be sustained by small doses of an
infusion of golden seal and scull-
leap or cactus.
T. The rules to be observed by persons
predisposed to apoplexy may be stat
ed as follows: Avoid excessive labor
mental strain, anxiety and excitement
Eat plain food, and that very moder-
ately: subsist mainly on fruits and
vegetables. Leave all alcoholic liquors
alone. Keep the bowels open, exercise
moderately and keep a cheerful dis
position-do not quarrel. Never lie
down soon after eating. and don't re-
tire at night with a full stomach
Avoid exercise before breakfast anc
Immediately after meals. Avoid hare
water. which often makes brittle the
blood vessels in some persons; and dt
not indulge in foods or habits liable
to produce fats. Use instead food'
that increase the vitality and healtl
of the nerves.
