Piled to Gentlemen.
 Richmond Times-Dispatch.
 Chivalry is one of the most noble traits of manly man, and has ever been one of the chief attractions of the true Southern gentleman. The chiv- airy of the oldtime Southerner was seen in his invariable reverence for a good woman and his readiness all ways to defend her from others, and not only from others, but from him self. His chivalry was seen in his his last morsel with a friend: he would take no mean advantage of foe. :. He would give his life for his friend. flee; he would fight no foe except in the open upon equal terms. He was a good lover and good hater. He was a fighter. ana he believed in the code was in difference to his chival- rous idea that that was the fairest and most genteel way of settling

Mr.. Creighton Heard From.

Hugh Creighton, Of Greenwood, q
student at Woford college, who left the
institution several days ago, and whose
disappearance caused some alarm to his
father, Rev. C. W. Creighton, editor OF
the Christian Appeal, is in Chattanooga,
Tenn. This morning one of the Wofford
students received souvenir post card
from Chattanooga. The young man
merely left college on little trip.
DR.. b. N. Snyder, president of Woford
college, stated this morning that the
young man had done nothing disgraceful
at the institution, and there was no
reason why he should have left. DR..
Snyder expressed himself as being OF the
opinion that the young man wanted to
take trip and left without notifying his
father. Mr.. Creighton was in the city
yesterday making inquiries about his son.
The young man will probably return to
college in few days and resume his
studies.-Spartanburg Journal.

Forgery is the Charge.

CoLuMs1A, December 3.-There is a
great deal of interest taken in the hearing
given the county officials yesterday after
noon before Magistrate Moorman. Form
er County Supervisor s. Owens, form
er County Commissioner J. E. Harmon
and former Clerk G. NJ Douglas have all
been bound over for the February term
Of court in bond of $1,000 each. The
charges against each of them in the war
rants is forgery. There was surprise
yesterday afternoon when J. p. Harmon
indicated that he would be State wit
ness. Heswore than in one transaction
q claim was made ont in the name OF
Kennedy. Harmon went into bank
and had it cashed, Owens waiting out
side. Afterwards the money was dl-
yided. Harmon also testified that Owens
had tried to get him to sign paper, saying
that he, Owens, had never done anything
wrong in the administration of the coun-
ty affairs.
The affair has caused sensation in
Columbia, and the trial in February
promises to be interesting. Both Owens
and Douglas deny the charges and say
that at the trial they will prove their IN
nocence.

Parcels Post Again.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-That periodi.
cal agitation for parcels post system has
again put in its appearance, and the an
nouncement has been made that the Ma
tional Grange will make an active cam
paign for the establishment of such sys-
TEN. The matter comes up every year,
but nothing definite has ever been
achieved by the agitators for such an
arrangement in connection with the
postoflce system.
Friends of the system declare that an
express monopoly, composed Of the five
great express companies backed in their
efforts by the 10000 urban and inter
urban parcel carrying companies, can
block every scheme for Federal parcels
post system.
These express companies are, these
men say, well championed among the
officials of the Postof1ce Department
where the argument is steadily advanced
that parcels post would work disas.
trously against business interests.

An Enyi0us Woman,

The train had pulled out of the terminal
and the conductor was on his fare-collect.
ing tour. In one car there sat woman
alone dressed in deep mourning. When
the conductor approached her the woman
burst into tears.
The conductor asked her what was the
matter. She sobbed this reply: "Ten
years ago I took my first husband over
this road to be cremated; five years ago I
took my second husband on the same trip
to the crematory and now am taking my
third husband to be consumed to ashes"
Just then there were loud sobs heard
coming from seat on the opposite side
of the car. The conductor turned and
saw another woman crying. Approach
ing softly, he asked the weeping one:
SWhat is the matter, madam?'
Taking her handkerchief from her eyes
the second one in tears answered.: "That
woman has husbands to burn, while I
can't get even one."

Farmers Institute.

Last Saturday was the day set apart for
the professors of Clemson college to hold
a farmers institute at Bamberg. Thecar
which has been fitted up by the college
was here and open for inspection all day,
and was visited by number Of people.
At night addresses were made in the OPP;
era house by several OF the educators in
the party, and it is source ofregret that
the inclement weather so seriously inter.
fered with the success of their visit. The
car was in charge of Director ]. N. Harp
er, who was accompanied by Mr.. Morri-
son and others. This instruction and
demonstration work which:is now being
carried on is bound to be of lasting ben
eft to the farmers Of the State, and we
do not think they are taking sufficient In
tererest in the great work which the au-
thorities of the college are doing.

Church Brethren in a Row.

Church BreIhren IN y hOn.
IS HAwK1Nsv1LLE, Nov.2+Themost SEN
sational scene ever witnessed in church
in this city took place last night at the
First Methodist church during the fourth
session of the quarterly conference.
Rev. G.B Johnston was in the chair, dur
ing which time, E. D. Richardson, q stew
art. called Rev. J. 81. Mathers, pastor OF
the church, a liar. The affair was caused
by the dropping of the name ofMr. Rich
ardson from the board Of stewards, which
he charged was actuated by personal feel
ing between the pastor and himself, 9
statement which Mr.. Mathers denied, stat
ing that his action was caused by the hab-
It Mr.. Richardson had of imbibing too
freely.
The lie was given this by Richardson.
Friends intervened and quiet was re-
stored.-Savsnnah Press.

Good Citizen Gone

DR.. B. D. Bronson and family leave
this week for Ninety-Six, where they
will make their home in future. It Is no
perfunctory statement to say that we, in
common with a large number of our citi-
zens, deeply regret their departure. DR..
Bronson is skilful physician and fine
citizen, and he and his estimable wife
were prominent in the business, social,
and church circles of our town. Wecol-
daily commend them to the good people
of Ninety-Six. Bamberg can i'll afford to
lose such people as they are, and we hope
they will follow the usual course of peo-
pie who leave here: They all come back
sooner or later, realizing after time
that, after all, there is no place like
Bamberg.

COUNTRY NEWS LETTERS.
SOMEINTERESTING HAPPENINGS
IN VARIOUS SECTIONS.
News Items Gathered All Around
the County and Elsewhere.
Ehrhardt Etchings.

EHRHARDT, Dec. 4.-Ehrhardt Knights
of Pythias lodge at its last meeting admit
ted five members to Knighthood, and two
to the rank of Esquire, and one applica-
ton. The lodge is gaining ground rapid.
", and is doing good work. There are
others to join our band soon.
Sorry to say, however, that the Endow-
.ment Rank is rather losing ground in
stead of gaining. Out of membership
of half hundred only fourteen have
ioined the Endowment Rank. The lodge
thinks strongly of building them a lodge
in connection withtbe Masons and Wood
men. This would be q good idea, to own
their hall and then rent the store under
meath to a good merchant. 1t would be
an ornament to the town.
Charles Copeland, an aged colored
man, lost his house and household goods
on thanksgiving day about noon. Some
bedding is all that was saved from the
fire.
Rev. P. E. Monroe held Thanksgiving
service In Ehrhardt Lutheran church on
the 3Oth. The congregation was not
large, as most of the youngsters went
hunting instead of going to church.
Saturday night we had fine and much
needed rain.
Mrs. Dora Weinner died last Friday
about noon. She was buried at Mt.
Pleasant church grave yard on Saturday
morning. She leaves husband, son, and
daughter, a father and two brothers be-
hind to mourn her untimely departure
from this life. She was loving wife, a
kind mother, and good neighbor. A
crowd was present to see her remains
placed in its last resting place, and none
had aught to say about the life she had
lived among them. Dora, you are dead,
but you will ever live in the memory of
your many friends. Rest in peace"
Mr.. Joe I. Copeland was in town last
week on business. As usual he passed
around his congenial smiles.
Mrs. Isaac D. Copeland spent q few
DAYS with relatives in town last week.
The hymeneal bell was to have rung in
our town on Wednesday night, but the
contracting parties have concluded to
call the date off.
The contract for the bank building has
been given to Mr.. Moore, of WATERFORD.
The building is to be completed in sixty
days.

Union People Won't Talk.

COLUMBIA, Nov 28.-Persons who have
visited Unicn (those casually manifesting
desire for information merely for pri-
vate consumption as well as newspaper
correspondents seeking facts for publica-
tion) have been struck by the extreme re-
ticence of the people of Union regarding
the subject of Mr.. T. G. Duncan and his
justly celebrated five-million dollar cot
ton mill failure. Union people "shy off,
from the subject, as do the people of Oar.
lington when the matter of Robert Keith
Dargan and his failure and suicide are
mentioned in Darlington. The people of
Union themselves have been struck hard
blow by this failure. Although much OF
the stock was held by outside capitalists,
there is a large number of individual
local holders, some of them for large
amounts. The story is going the rounds
that one prominent Union man lost over
$75,000 by the failure and had his hair to
turn snow white since the crash came,
although this is man of less than forty
years and owns nearly 100000 worth OF
property outside of his cotton mill inter-
ests. He is an altogether deserving man
and capable business man. In the case
of prominent firm which has been pros
porous there has been combined loss on
the part Of its members of nearly $4,000
In addition to these there have been
individual losses in Union of from one to
ten and twenty thousand. Mr.. Duncan
still has his strong personal friends in
Union, but their number has been greatly
diminished of late.

EXTRA PAY FOR THE SOLDIERS.
Will Help Those Who Served During the Wal
With Spain.

COLUMBIA, Nov. Ex-Governor Hey
ward has signed contract with W. Boyd
Evans, of this city, and Calhoun & Sizer,
of Washington, for the collection from
the federal government of the old Span.
ish.American war claims for soldiers en-
listing and offering to enlist from this
State. The lawyers are to get commits
sion of Is per cent. They are to file the
claims at Washington before the first of
next January in itemized form, as after
January the claims will be forever barred
unless they have been properly filed.
These claims include pay for the time
they volunteered at home until they were
mustered into service, pay for those who
were rejected on physical grounds, COM
pensation for all material and expenses
incurred by the governor in the raising
of these troops and for damage done to
property of any individual by the soldiers
while at their rendezvous.
Mr.. Evans estimates that he will get
about $4,000 for the soldiers on these
claims, though he is by no means conf
dent of that amount. The matter has
been hanging fire for many years, and
the soldiers who haveso long been hop
ing in vain. will be delighted to know
that they are at last about to get their
money. They have been hearing about
getting it until the matter has ceased to
interest many of them.
The affair has been brewing through
through the gubernatorial administra-
tions of Ellerbe, McSweeney and Hey
ward and half dozen legislatures.

A Pretty Good Plan.

If you see a tall fellow ahead OF tht
crowd,
A leader of men marching fearless anc
proud,
And you know of tale whose mere tell
ing aloud
Would cause his proud head to in anguish
be bowed,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of skeleton hidden away
In closet and guarded and kept from
the day, ...
In the dark; and whose showing, Whose
sudden display,
Would cause grief and sorrow and life
long dismay,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of spot in the life of
friend ..
(We all have such spots concealed, worlt
without end)
Whose touching his heartstrings wople
play on and rend,
Till the shame of its showing no grievinl
could mend,
It's pretty good plan to forget 1t.
If you know of thing that will darker
the Joy
Of man or a woman, q girl or boy,
That will wipe out smile or the leas
way annoy
A fellow or cause any gladness to cloy,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of q thing, just the least lit
tie sin,
Whose telling would cork up laugh, O.
grin
Of man you don't like, for Lords sake
keep it in!
Don't, don't be a knocker; right here sticl
pin
It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
