BACK TO THE OLD COUNTRY.
Two Thousand IN Steerage--One
Thousand Get Left.

New York, June 17.-A-More than a
thousand persons holding steerage
tickets for European ports were left
behind by the steamer Potsdam,
when she sailed to-day with her
steerage quarters filled to their ca
pacity of 1000. The thousand who
were unable to find accommodations
on the ship were assured that they
would be taken on the next outgoing
steamer, but many of them made de-
termined efforts to get ON board the
Potsdam. They were held in check,
however, by large force of police
men, who had been summoned to
the pier.
As early. as last evening the steam
er's steerage quarters were filled, but
every train from the West brought
in scores of homeward-b bound for
eigners, who had purchased tickets
through the company's Western
agencies. The police had considera-
BILE difficulty in holding back the
crowd of newcomers, who attempted
to force their way on board the Pots
dam, and several times clubs were
used by the guardians of the law.
Many of the prospective passen-
gers have little or no money beyond
what will be required to get them to
their homes, and It is likely that they
will remain in one of Hoboken' s
parks, where they are now >amped,
until the next steamer sails.
The great homeward rush of for
eigners Is believed to be largely due
to the extremely low rates now offer
ed for eastward-bound steerage pas
sengers.

tendent of Education, opened his
mail last saturday morning little
slip of paper fiuttered from one of
the letters bearing the name of j. p.
Morgan, New York's big banker. The

The General Assembly has appropri-
ated $4,000 for 1908 and pledges
like amount for 1909 for the con-

enable the college to increase it's en-
rollment by at least $50 students.
With the money in sight the work
can be started as soon as the local
arrangements are made in Rock Hill.

The officers of the American patri-

Deputy e. G. Ellison. of Montgomery,
Alabama on May 18th. We were
very much pleased to have him with
us, as he is held In the highest esteem
by every officer, two of the board
having had the pleasure of meeting
him before, and the rest of the board
were more than pleased to become
acquainted with such congenial
gentleman. EGsS
We feel sure that his visit will not
only DO the supreme office great
deal of good, but will help him and
his members everywhere in having
broader idea of what the American
Patriots are.
We trust that Mr.. Ellison enjoyed
liis visit as much as we did, and we
shall always, be pleased to welcome
him any TIME he sees fit to pay US
another visit. We are glad to hear
his words of praise for Springfield

SOAP BUBBLES.

How Some Pretty and Marvellous ~.
fects May 30 Produced.
There are degrees Of skill In all pas.
times, but one would hardly think that
there were specialists In the art Of
blowing soap bubbles. An article In
the Windsor Magazine by Meredith Nu-
gent, however. shows that some very
pretty and marvellous effects may be
obtained by the exercise OF care and
patience with soap and water.
The first step Ia to make solution
by rubbing pure white CASTLE soap into
a bowl partly fllled with water until a
lather has been formed. Then remove
every particle Of lather, dip Il clay pipe
into the cleared solution and start to
blow bubble.
II you can blow one six inches In d.
ameter SO that Il WIN hang suspended
from the pipe and win allow your fore.
finger covered with the solution to be
pushed through Into the bubble with
out breaking. then the mixture Is ready
for use.
Six bubbles may be blown, one Inside
the other This Is performed by dip
ping the end Of straw In the soapy
water and after resting the wet end
upon m inverted plate or sheet of
glass. which should have been previ-
ously wet with the solution, blow
bubble six Inches IN diameter.
Then dip the straw into the solution
again, carefully thrust 1t through into
the center of this first bubble and blow
another. Continue In this manner until
all the bubbles are In position. Great
care must be taken that the straw is
thoroughly wet with solution for fully
half Its length before each bubble is
blown. With practice ten or twelve
bubbles may be placed inside of one
another
