An Inside Story of Two Newspaper
Incidents. E

There Is something almost fiendisli
IN the delight displayed by the public
on the few occasions when news
papers are caught tripping. Many
good articles have been written full.
of instances Of journalistic blunders,
and countless stories told of the de-
4linquencless of newspaper men. I re-
member one good story of news edi-3
tor attached to a provincial paper, says
a we'll known editor. He was "a young
man, very keen, energetic and en-
terprising, but somewhat lacking in
the knowledge necessary to the ade-
.quate fulfillments,of his duties On a
certain occasion a public man died
in Manchester. Immediately IA re-
porter was DISPATCHED to his home to
CLEAN all particulars of his decease.
Very soon came a telegram from the
newspaper enlissarN to- this effect "My.t
So-and SO died of uric acid poisoning
The news editor COINED the mes
sage, and visions of a big SCOOP
fashioned themselves in his ardent
Imagination.
Wen make a big thing of this"
he said, as he wired to the reporters:
Find out chemist who sold poison
and get Interview"
News editors are not usually as unin?
formed as this, though. but the new
reporter is frequently conspicuous by
the absence Of his intelligence. on
the first day that a young reporter
began his duties on a3local country pa
per a report came from neighboring
town that there was terrible fire
raging The editor of the paper inn
mediately sent the new reporter to-
the place and. upon arriving there, he
found that the firemen were unable
to get control Of the fire, so he sent
this telegram to the editor:
Fire still raging. What shall I dog
The editor thought a minute and
then sent back this message:
Find out where the fire is the hot
test and jump in.

tracted the attention Of higher Off
,cials Of the company and he was sent
to Atlanta and given an important
position in the office Of Colonel v. I.

Tillman in His Old Form.

A Washington dispatch to the News
and Courier says that those persons
who have been expecting Senator Till
man to collapse momentarily on the
floor of the senate all during the
present session Of congress because OF
the illness he had last year have been
much surprised recently at the unusu-
al vieor that he has shown. Senator
Tillman has apparently never been in
better or more robust health than at
this time, and some Of the thrusts he
sends home to offending colleagues
shows that he has not only recovered
whatever ground he lost last year, but
that in addition has gained consider
ably by his junket abroad.
A day or two ago the question OF
whether or not the senator had re-
gained his health came up in the press
gallery among some of the newspaper
men. and the remark was made, "lt
YOU don't believe he has regained his
old form just try him.

Newberry Boy Who Has Merited and
Won Success-Vice- President
Southern Bell.

The announcement from New York
that Colonel W. T. Gentry has beer
elected president Of the Southern
Bell Telephone and Telegraph COM
pany and that Mr. J. Epps Brown has
been elected vice president and gen
eral manager, is Of more than ordl-
nary interest in Newberry ard
throughout the State of South Caro-
lima.
]. Epps Brown, upon whom new
honors have been conferred, is a ma
tive of South Carolina, having been
born in Newberry. He is a descend
ant of one Of the oldest and most
distinguished families Of this Stale
and his name is one that has been
identified with the progress and de-
velopment Of the State and section.
Mr.. Browns success is gratifying
to his friends here and throughout
the South. Although he has been
connected with the Southern Bel
company for only ten years he has
demonstrated his ability in such a
manner that he has won rapid promo
ton which has eliminated in his
election to the Office Of vice president
and general manager Of the big COM

has been general manager and in the
new Office he Will continue as general

PRESIDENT HARMS
TO SALUDA LUTHERANS
New Head of Newberry College DeliV-
ers Two Interesting Sermons to
Large Congregations.

The State.
Saluda, Feb 22.-President Harms
Of Newberry college, filled the pulpit
at the Lutheran church in this town
Sunday morning and evening. His
theme at the morning hour was
"Christian Education"
The speaker said in part: The bold
est declaration that ever fell from lips
upon mortal ear were the words OF
Christ when He said: "Upon this
rock will I build my church and the
gates Of hell shall not prevail against
it. This statement was made by a
poor, despised Nazarene out in one
corner of the world surrounded by a
few fisher folk and peasants. All
history eontradicted the assertion,
for Mesopotamia was heap of rub
bish and Egypt was moekery OF its
former self.
All around were the crumbling
monuments Of the past, nothing last
ING, all perishable and perishlng. This
declaration could never have been
made had not the Eternal One, when
making it, been looking down the fu-
ture and seeing the great work and
the innumerable workers of the 2Oth
century and Of all the centuries CO.
operating with Him to make the as
sertion an eternal verify.
The Christian school is one of the
pillars Of this structure, which even
the gates of hell shall not prevail
against, for it stands for the develop
ment of the entire man, not half the
fellow, nor two-thirds, but his trlune
nature. It places mans spirituality
first. It is this that should be al
ways foremost and uppermost. BY
fitting men to be the companion OF
angels will profane history be det1ed.
This was President Harms first
visit to Saluda and he has made Tor
himself warm place in the affections
of this people.
