To Move TO Spartanburg.

After full and free consultation
with the board of missions, Rev. DR..
S. T. Hallman, who has been serving
the Lutheran Mission at Greenwood
and Spartanburg, has decided to move
from Newberry to Spartanburg.
For the past several years DR..
Hallman has been living in this city
with his family, but his work being
at Spartanburg and Greenwood, has
made it very inconvenient and caused
him to be away from home the great
er part Of his time. While We regret
to lose DR.. Hallman as a citizen, it
is no doubt much better for him and
his work that he should reside in
Spartanburg. Miss Lilly Belle, his
daughter, is already living in Spar
tanburg and has a large class in mu-
sic, and one Of his sons has also Sc
cured employment there.

good attendance Of the teachers o1
the county. Prof. J. S. Wheeler coun,
ty superintendent of Education made
a statement concerning the purpose
of district summer school embracing
Newberry, Laurens, Abbeville, Salu,
da and Edgefield counties to take the
place Of the county summer schools
Of those counties. The attendance OF
the county school has been notably
small in past years only five taking
the final examinations in this county
last year. The association by a unani-
nous vote endorsed the plan. 1t will
be held this year at Greenwood some
time in June.
Prof. Dye Of the Whitmire schools,
continued the monthly discussions on
English by discussing the verb. The
talk was practical and we'll delivered
although he was suffering with his
throat causing him to close sooner
than otherwise which the association
greatly regretted.
Prof. Kicklighter of the Technolo-
gical Department Of Newberry Col
lege discussed the subject :of~techni-
cal training. Very enteftaingly- he
talked Of his subject in which he takes
a great deal of interest,", He urged

ued his discussion Of Arithmetic but
his talk was postponed at his request
the hour for adjournment having az
rived.
Those who attend regularly are
taking an interest in the work of the
association. 1t is hoped that more
of the teachers will attend at the sub
sequent meetings.

Fire at Oil Mill.

The alarm Of fire was turned in
from the Southern Cotton Oil Mill on
Sunday afternoon about 2 o'clock.
There were about 800 bales Of lin
ters in one pile at the mill and the
fire started there. Just how it origi-
mated is not known as the cotton was
a good distance from the boiler room
and besides there had been no fire
there since Saturday and the cotton
was too far from the railroad to have
been set from a spark from passing
engine.
About $50 bales were damaged the
total damage being about $500, cov-
cred by insurance.
The fire department responded
promptly and did efficient work.

Mr.. Editor: Please allow me space
in your valuable columns to correct
some errors which appeared in piece
headed ESCAPED Convict Captured. !"
Ike Glenn, so the piece says, "eseap-
ed while the gang was at work near
Mr.. John Hipp's.' That is mis-
take. He escaped while at work on
hill near Bush River on ONeall
road. Now it says "Sheriff Buford
was notified and sent his son, Pope
Buford and Spea1man Chalmers in
Search
Sheriff Buforl was not notified at
all, nor did he send anyone in search.
I went to the Jail and asked the sher-
if where Pope was, and about that
time Pope appeared and I asked him
if he would accompany me. Mr.. Bu-
ford told him he could 60 if he wished.
That is all the sheriff had to do with
the matter. Pope Buford and myself
went in search, and instead of cap
turing the negro on cdr. r. C. Car
isles place" as stated, We captured
him on Mr.. Bernard Carlisle's place.

rections in your next issue and oblige
Yours respectfully,
