THE NEWS AT BENSON.
Farmers Will Decrease Acreage-A
Farmers Paper Needed-0ther
News.

BENSON, S. c., Feb. 21:. The
farmers around Benson seem to
be in earnest about the reduction
of the cotton acreage. So far it
is my experience that the ne
groes are better informed as to
the movement, take more inter
est in it, and are more easily or
ganized than the whites. The
negroes attend the meetings, the
whites will not, and SO give us
the trouble of sending a commit
tee after them for their pladges.
However, all seem so far agreed
to make the proposed reduction.
We farmers of South Carolina
need a paper that will give more
space to our business. In a
general way our daYlies are
among the best and most con-
servative news distributors, but
it seems to me that the Consti-
tuition or the Atlanta Journal
either has given more space to
fr1-mers interests, and Cotton
Growers Association than three
of our largest newspapers.
I am sorry you did not have a
precinct meeting; on the 18th
inst. Kingstree was the meet
ing place of the convention that
set apart the 18th as a day for
paecinct organizations. F'urth-
er, there is no excuse for lack of
information among the farmers
around Kingstree. They, if any
body, should know the object of
the organization, and its impor-
tance. You should have set a
good example for the county.
You can yet improve the one al
ready set. hope you will.

coolest day this year a respec-
table looking man drove up to

Mary Howe at Springfield.

The Springfield Republican pays
high tribute of praise to Mary Howe
In it's report of her song recital IN
that city Tuesday evening. 1t says
that Miss Howe was in excellent voice
and gave a thoroughly enjoyable rem
dering of many of the worlds best
songs.
The program, which is printed IN
full. was the same as that given at
her recent appearance in the auditor
ium here. 1t opened with Rossini's
Una voce POGO fa," Of which the Re
publican says 1T enjoys, or did at the
time of composition. the distinction OF
being the most difficult aria ever
written 1t is beloved and attempted
by all sopranos, but certainly few sing
its intricate roulades with as much
grace and ease as Miss Howe. Speak
ing of the Nightingale Song, the Re-
publican says: 1T is, of course. in lust
this sort OF thing, which call 10Y
beautiful tones and perfec, "ecutlon,
that Mary Howe excels, ard II moth
ing were these qualities better dis
played than in the Chanson du Mysoli,
by David. This aria from The Pearl
of Brazil, belongs. one might say. by
right of conquest, to Miss Howe.
Many are the singers, notable ana
otherwise, even Calve included. who
essay this feat. but there are none
who cover themselves with quite so
much glory in the attempt as does

it would help her. Mrs. Prouty salo
she took a small part of the prescrlp-
ton and afterward had a miscarriage.
She said she never called on DE

SUPERVISORS OF INSANE
Sustain supt. Grout in Arrest of A.
PENDANTS for Abuse of Patient.

The state board of supervisors for
the insane have finished their inVesti-
cation of the death of Peter Durpnt
at the hospital at Waterbury Nov. o,
and issued a statement Wednesday,
November 22, In which they
say they deem the evidence sufii-
cient to warrant the superintendent
of the hospital In causing the arrest
of Fred j. Dennis and b. ID. Coon. who
are now held in the county jail at
Montpelier, awaiting the action of the
grand jury
At the hearing at Waterbury We'd
iiesday, Floyd V. Curtis. nurse In
the ward where Durant was placed,
testified that he was In the dining
room when the trouble occurred.
Durant could not understand much
English and was slow of comprehen-
sion. He insisted, at this time, on
rising from his chair and trying to
leave the room. He was asked to
stop and when he did not do so was
forced down. AS he kept rising the
two attendants finally hit him in the
chest. He got up several times and
Coon and Dennis again struck him
in the same place, Curtis did not see
Durant use a knife. and he did not
threaten them with a knife that he
could see. He thought that Durants
chair was knocked from under him In
the struggle but was positive that he
did not see anyone fall on top OF
Durant. The patient, after being
struck, put his hand to his chest and
kept groaning. Asked why he did not
interfere when he saw Durant being
ill-treated Curtis said that he would
have done so but that both of the
nurses, Coon and Dennis, were supe--
riors in rank. The blows did not
seem very hard to him but the rule
was that the attendants should not
strike the patients at all. The rule
also is that an attendant seeing pa
tients abused by other attendants
should report the matter.
Three patients who were present
during the trouble also testified to the
same effect.
DR.. Henry James of Waterbury testi-
fled that the chest injuries. caused by
the blows. caused Durants death
