WHY HE RESIGNED.
Report That Capt. Clay Decided to
Leave Clemson Because Of 1nsub-
ordinate Behavior Of Senior
Class. -.
Greenville News.

Greenville News.
The resignation Of CAPTAIN Clay as
commandant Of cadets at Clemson
College is a very unpleasant surprise
to the friends Of the institution all
over South Carolina. Just why the
United States army officer decided to
leave the institution has never been
clearly explained, but it has been IN
timated that the behavior Of the Sc
nior class during commencement had
great deal do with Captain Clay S
determination to leave the college.
The senior cadets, it seems, we're
having a good time and Captain Clay
objected to their behavior. He IS said
to have ordered the young men to
their rooms and they ignored his ad-
rhority and treated him with little or
no regard. Captain Clay is an army
officer. He was sent to Clemson to
maintain military discipline there, and
it is said that when he found that he
could not enforce the order he deem
cd necessary, he decided to withdraw.
It has been intimated that the res
ignation of Captain Clay may result
in the permanent withdrawal of army
officers and federal aid from Clemson
College. This would mean that the
institution would lose the use of the
arms now in its possession as we'll as
the services Of regular ;rmy officer
as professor of military tactics and
commandant of the college. The loss
to Clemson would be very serious in
deed.
That such course will not prove
necessary is to be hoped, but a friend
of the institution said that he was ap-
prehensive as to the outcome AMI
very sorry that Captain Clay would
not be there another term.
Col. NJ. /. Donaldson, member OF
the board of trustees, was asked about
Captain Clay's resignation, but he
declined to say anything further than
that it was fact that the commandant
had resigned. The matter would come
up, he said, at the next meeting Of
the board.

Charging Him With Illegal Ex-
traction.

At the meeting Of the State Dentist
association, held at Anderson last
week, the case Of C. C. Armstrong,
who Was tried for murder at the last
term of court here, charged with kill
ing Mrs. Carrie Berry by injecting
poison into her gums while extracting
teeth, and who was acquitted, was
taken up and considered by the asso-
citation. The following is from the An
derson correspondent Of the Columbia
State:
The matter Of C. C. Armstrong, the
alleged dentist, injecting poisonous
fluids in the gums Of a woman in
Newberry recently, from the effects
of which fluid the woman died, was
brought up before the committee and
it was resolved that a warrant be
sworn out for Armstrong charging
him with illegal extraction. The war
rant has been placed in the hands Of
Sheriff Green Of this county. 1t is
recalled that Armstrong was tried IN
the court Of general sessions for muir
der in Newberry county and was ac-
quilted Of the charge.
In connection with the above mat
ter, the following resolution was adop-
ted:
"Resolved, That it is unlawful for
any member of this association to
employ any one in his office Or prae-
tice who is an illegal practitioner or
has not license to practice dentis-
try in South Carolina.
"Resolved, further, That this as
ISOLATION will withdraw membership
from any dentist guilty Of such con-
duct.'
Mr.. Armstrong was in Newberry on
the fourth of July enjoying the festiv-
tiles Of the occasion with his friends.

At Pistols Point Stranger Forces
Them to Obey Command-For-
tunately They are Unframed.

>Bamberg, July 6.-About dusk yes
terday evening four young ladies,
three Of them sisters, were strolling
on the outskirts Of the town when
suddenly they were aecosted by
white man who threw a revolver up
on them, commanding that they fol-
low him to the edge Of the woods.
Upon reaching a ditch he gave fur
ther command that they take off their
shoes and go in wading. About this
time one Of the young ladies tainted
and another made an outcry, where
upon the unknown man took to the.
woods.
. The alarm was soon given and
search was instituted for the strang-
er. Bloodhounds were put on the trail
and he was tracked for several miles.
The dogs having lost the trial ap-
parently because the stranger took a
buggy, the searchers secured vehicles
and at late hour tonight the search
is being continued.
The man was apparently about 30
years old, tall. Of dark complexion
and clean shaven.
Several incidents have occurred
here recently which lead people to be-
lieve that there is an insane man in
the community.
