Mr. Cooper, the victim Of the
unfortunate accident which cost

The NEWS At HARPERS.
hrJ J Gibson Killed In Runaway
CCident = RarpcrS Still Growing.

HAIR PERs. October 26:-I am
sorry to report that another old
Confederate veteran has gone
to his reward-Mr. j j Gibson
of Harpers. While hauling freight
from Earls, a small station on
the g & w railroad, his mule
team became frightened and ran
away and in trying to stop them
he became entangled in the
reins and was dragged from his
seat several hundred yards on
the ground, causing him such
serious injuries that he died two
da VS. later. Mr. Gibson was iniu-
red on Saturday, October II, and
died the following Monday. His
remains were laid to rest on
Tuesday, the Goth inst, in the
cemetery at Harmony church.
MIR Gibson leaves a widow and
three sons to mourn his loss,
besides 4 host of friends in this
community. He was a member
Of Harpers Baptist church, but
only for few months, having
formerly been of the Methodist
persuasion. The family of the
deceased have the sympathy of
the entire town.
Your scribe is sorry to report
that Mr. Louis Yarboro of
Bloomipgvale is in a serious
condition. His daughter, Mrs
Farley of Georgetown, passed
through town today going to
Blcomingvale to the beside of
her father. We hope Mr. Yarboro
may be spared for many years,
as we know him to be gentle
man in the best and truest sense
of the word.
A party of young men from
town went out Friday night on
a 'possum hunt. The night
being dark and cloudy the hunt
ers got lost and when they re-
turned to town Sunday morning
some of the party asked, "Where
am ] at? and "Who are you?"
There is no doubt of the fact
that they were "lost bad"
Mr. Edwin Harper has been
selling lots at Harpers for
several months. He has dis
posed of several,hundred acres
in and around town. We under
stand that the purchasers of
these lots will proceed to build
on them, thus improving their
property and at the same time
adding to the improvement of
our growing town, which We
hope soon to see rise and flourish
like the green bay tree.

What OUR GIRLS At '
WINTHROP ARE DOING.
The GIRLS READ THE RECORD and
WANT MORE HOME NEWS

ROCK HILL, October 26:-HOW
would the readers of The COUNTY
RECORD like to hear what is do
ing at Winthrop Normal and
Industrial College, Every per-
son in the State of South Caro-
-tlina should be proud of this ex-
Acellent institution and feel that
they have an interest in it, for
the great work it is doing for
the young women of South Caro-
lima can never be estimated.
Just think of it, There were
1852 applications for entrance
here, lis of them having come
in since the college opened, and
yet only about five hundred
could be admitted. However,
provision is being made to take
in about two hundred more. A
large new dormitory is now be-
Ing erected and it is hoped that
Hwill be ready for use by next
session.

on his way to Europe, where
he has gone to study higher
education for women. This is
for the benefit of Winthrop and
he hopes to bring back with
him all the latest improvements
for the higher normal and in
dustrlal studies. Before he left,
it was promised that on the
Sunday night that he was out
on the ocean, the student body
would sing his fovOrite song,
"Nearer, my God, to Thee" 1T
was with a feeling of sadness
that it was done. Wofford has
its Carlisle and Winthrop has
its Johnson. Indeed, too much
cannot be said in praise Of this
noble and efficient man who is
&evoting his life to the educa-
lion of the young women of
South Carolina.
Last Monday night, the Schu-

RESULTS AT P0UGHKEEPsIE.
VARSITY FIGHTS.

POuGHkEEPSIE. N. Y, June 81
Swinging their sweeps with powerful
strokes which carried their slender shell
through the water at all but record
pace. the Syracuse varsity crew this aft
ernoon won the four-mile race for uni
versity eight-oared crews. They headed
Columbia by less than one-third of n
length and Cornell by a bare length at
the finish line after one of the most
holly contested and most interesting
struggles in the eleven years history of
collegiate racing in the Hudson course
Incidentally Syracuse took from Cornell
the trophy which is the token Of VIC
tory in this race-the varsity challenge
cup. presented in 1898 by Dr. Louis l..
Seamon, Cornell, to be held by the win
ner for one year. Syracuse has had the
trophy only once before-in 1904-and
Cornell has lost it on this course only
thrice before today. once to Syracuse in
1904 and twice in succession to PennsyI-
vania, 1899 and 1900. Pennsylvania won
it from Cornell also in 1898 on Saratoga
lake.
The crew from Syracuse won by the
power behind their blades and by supe-
nell rowed finely throughout the contest
and pressed the winner hard in the last
mile. Pennsylvania eight made the
pace for nearly three miles and then went
to pieces. finishing six lengths behind
Cornell.
Wisconsin Man Collapses.
Wisconsin was reckoned as q contender
until the three-mile mark was passed at
Poughkeepsie bridge. when ]. W. Wilce,
No. 2 collapsed and put the western crew
out of the contest. He soon recovered and
the Wisconsin men rowed bravely on, even
though Wilce fell over on his oar again.
He again revived sufficiently to swing an
oar as the Wisconsin crew swept over
the finish line more than a minute be-
hind Syracuse. The winner was greeted
by the roar of many voices, the shrieks
Of whistles and sirens and the reports of
exploding bombs set off from the bridge
Unruffied even by vagrant slants Of
air, the river in the lazy tide still held
its satin surface when the five crews
padded briskly to the starting line and
swung their shells into position for. the
varsity race.
There vas a dead calm, and the college
colors on the stakehOats hung limp at
their stats. Ranged alongside the river
bank 1000 persors-students. college con-
tingents and boat racing enthusiasts
waited in the long observation train for
the start.

The Casualty Record.

According to statistics filed up to 10
o'clock last night the Fourth of July
celebration throughout the country on
Saturday cost seventy-one lives and
caused the injury of 2,624. besides the de-
struction of property to the value of
$J2J, 93J. The death list is certain to be
and as tetanus develops among those who
are now rated as injured. In all likeli-
hood there will be at least 100 deaths
from acute patriotism to be scored against
the American people this year.
There is no installing the sentiment de-
veloped during the last few years in IA
vor of the rigorous suppression of the
fireworks evil in this country. If vote
could be taken today on this subject prob
ably a proposal to prohibit the sale of
firecrackers and powder and pistols of all
kinds would be carried overwhelmingly.
Just why this sentiment does not work out
in results in time to affect the Inde-
pendence day observances is a mystery of
collective temperament yet to be solved.
Any reform measures adopted now must
wait for twelve months for enforcement.

sentative of the United States to spread
throughout this country the intelligence
that American travellers in Venezuela are
perfectly safe.
The situation now comes to the point
where it is necessary, in self respect, for
the United States either to enforce its
proposition that these claims be submitted
to an international tribunal, or perma-
nently to sever it's connections with the
government at Caracas. clustering win
not do. and it is obvious that the process
of diplomacy is wasted with Castro. He
regards himself as paramount to the in
ternational laws, and no reasoning ap-
peals to him. He is indeed so ignorant Of
diplomatic usage that notwithstanding the
withdrawal of the American representa-
tive from Caracas he still retains his
legation in this city intact.
President Roosevelt put the matter up
to Congress last session, but that body
adjourned without action. If at the next
session nothing is done to bring the af-
fair to climax. the United States will
be forced to the unpleasant alternative Of
remaining automatically non-existent as
regards Venezuela, or of returning there,
perhaps by degrees, with the acknowledge
ment that it is beaten. This government
has enthusiastically espoused the claims
of the American citizens doing business
in Venezuela, to the extent of demanding
for them fair judicial hearing, and of
contending that such hearing cannot be
obtained in Venezuela. From these propo-
sitions it cannot now we'll afford to
withdraw.

Hill.

David B. Hill for Vice President? Come
how. No trifling with good mans conn.,
fort. Mr.. Hill is in Europe trying to for
get the past in America by studying 1t
over there. He is not Bryan man. He
would not fill the bill. There is not a
single question about which he is in agree
ment with Mr.. Bryan. Not even the
tariff question. Mr.. Hill, while a tariff
reformer, has never stood with the ex-
tremists. Mr.. Bryan always has. While
the Nebraskan in 1894 as member Of the
House was voting for an income tax, Mr..
Hill as a member of the Senate was vot-
ing against it, and in a speech outlining
the grounds upon which the Supreme
Court subsequently held the tax to be un-
constitutional. Bryan and Hill would
never do. The ticket would provoke
such laughter as would not subside before
election day. The democracy can better
afford to be radical than ridiculous.
