OLD DAYS AT DUE WEST.
Judge James M. CrOssOn Of Texas
Writes Of His College Days-The
Kind of Trousers That Shocked the
i..la

In 1887, Dan DeWalt and I went to
school to John s. Pressly, who, on our
first appearance before him, said he
never had good boy from Newberry;
|if Albert Gaskin was speclman he
was correct. Dan and sustained the
said reputation, but when Archie
Sloan and Caleb Lindsay appeared
there was a change. Dan and l went
to school together, together boarded,
slept, fought, played, went swimming,
played truant, etc. knew him we'll
and liked him. His mother was aDx-
ious about his education and with her
usual energy did everything to pro-
mote it: but Dan differed with her
and preferred bull pen to books: he
never fed much on the dainties found
in books.
Historic Sacrae was then the first
book the in Latin, Vim Romae, second.
Dan never reached the second. 'Tis said
he translated the first sentence Abra-
hamus credidid Dec policenti" thus
"Abaham credited Cd with q pocke
handkerchief" It was thought that q
certain bright and talented boy Frank
Patton furnished Dan this translation.

tre live an exemplar of all that is good
hue and wise in this world.
Gen. French in his book Two Wars
writes. when Gen. Pope was student
at West Point, he returned from a
furlough in breeches with straps at the
bottom and open down at the 'front.' and

Major D., whose hobbies were economy
and practical utility, gave the cadets
permission to have their pants made op-

ion the broad flap pants that buttoned
at the sides.
Pope's pattern of breeches are now
worn by all Christian men and some
who are not of that religion. Dan and

Kind words From an Old Friend.

Judge James NJ Crossan, formerly OF Nav
berry. but now Of Texas. in writing to the
Newberry Herald and News. has there kind
words to say Of young man who worked In
his pri ting office and boarded In his house
In 1856. The man OF whom he speaks was
young in 1856, but he is older now-4s years
have been added to his record since then.
The young man to whom reference was had

Wide Range on Prices.

The fiuctuations In the price of cotton are
nothing when compared TO the price which Is
set on the different dispensary folk by " "ould-
be customers.
In Spartanburg the price OF dispensary
mans favors ranges from S25 all the way up
to S2T5.
In Columbia a dlspensary mans faVof
comes much higher than In Spartauourg.
$4,000 was offered 10 one Mr. Nixon. and even
that price was refused. We are not Informed
as to the selling price, but assume that the
moving figures we're still higher.
Nothing that has appeared in the papers
for a long time has brought TO our ears more
remarks OF an amusing kind than the state
mept OF Mr.. Nixon that he was offered $50 OOO
One man said that the price was too high.
another suggested $500 as taking figures, an
other thought that Mr.. Nixon should have
considered the offer as a special discount, and
given the State credit for $4,000 discount on
the bill 1t was suggested, too, that Nixon
ought to 60 TO the penitentiary for not acting
in the interest OF the State.
But it would seem that dspensary folk
like cotton, are sometimes, on the market
to the highest bidder.
In Abbeville there are perhaps 500 men who
have been at work all their lives gathering up
the dollars. Among that number there are
not dozen men who have made $4,000
And nobody about here, as far as we have
heard, has given Mr.. Nixon much credit for
throwing away the opportunity OF a life time
This dispensary investigation has been
revelation and surprise. The pitiful stories
OF men being bought at prices ranging from
s25 to s275 is surprising and the effrontery
with which men proclaim their own shame
is amazing. And the high price which
drummer placed upon Nixon, we think, will
be accepted as the biggest joke that has been
perpetrated on the commission. The fact is,
the whole thing seems TO be monstrous
Joke, wherin depravity Of the Witnesses may
not be carefully concealed.
In view OF the testimony now before the
world, we offer this resolution.
Resolved, that, with some exceptions, wit
nesses before the commission have proven
by their OVID testimony that they are as
rule shameless set.
Therefore, Resolved, that other and better
men be put in charge OF the dispepsary Of
fees.
