glimpse Of the great agricultural and
mechanical college.
The knights of the quill, not to for
get the ladies Of the quill, seemed to
have good time from start to finish.
The authorities Of the college had
nice luncheon prepared for the party,
which arrived about 2.3O. During the
luncheon President Nell, Of the col
lege, and President Johnstone, Of the
trustees, warmly welcomed the vlsl-
tors, and urged them to take posses
sion and see the college for themselv-
es. President Aull, of the Press as
sociation, made happy response to
the welcome offered the association.
Senator Tillman arrived just before
the party began its rounds Of inspec-
ton and was prevailed upon to say
a word to them. He spoke to them
briefly in his usual spicy and force
full style about the influence Of the
press. and especially Of the country
newspapers as being the backbone Of
influence in the land, aid then talked
to them about Clemson and its work,
its large expenditure Of money, some
times apparently extravagant, but
told the editors that he was glad they
now had chance to see for themselv-
es what the college had done and Is
doing to show for this large outlay Of
the States money.
Senator Tillman is always heard
with interest and the party was more
than glad that he happened along
from St. Louis.
The various departments Of the col
leee were visited after the luncheon
and then carriages were furnishd to
all who cared to 60 over the expert

DR.. Nell and the several trustees
and the various members Of the facul-
ty present helped the visitors in every
possible way in so short timeto see
the institution, and many were the
expressions of pleasure on the part Of

.DANIEl ZIMMERMAN PARDoNED
Aged Man Who Took State Bonds
Leaves Penitentiary.

Columbia, July 9.-At 70 years of
age Daniel Zimmerman, former clerk
in fhe office of the State treasurer,
goes forth from the State penitentiary
a free man. The State board Of par
dons today recommended to Governor
Ansel that the pardon be granted, and
the report was accepted by the COVER
nor. With the dramatic scene Of the
release Of the aged man from tho
State prison and the return to his
wife and family is enacted one of the
closing scenes of case which IS
known from one end Of the State to
the other, and created such a sensa-
tion on the day, few years ago, when
$12.500 in State bonds we're found
missing from the treasury. But one
more character appears III the last
chapter, and around Thomas J. Glib
son centres now all interest in the
final determination Of the case. He
is out on bond pending the result OF
the petition for rehearing before the
circut judge. The supreme court has
affirmed the decision Of the lower
court and the remittitur has been
handed down. IF the circuit Judge
grants a rehearing at the next ses-
sion of court the higher court Will
hear the case again; if not, he must 60
to the penitentiary for the six months
of his sentence. These were the two
main actors in the tragedy-Dan Zim-
norman, who was charged with en-
bezzlement. and Thomas Gibson. the
aged broker, who was charged with
receiving stolen goods.

HAVIRD CASE.
Saluda Grand Jury Recommends
That Charges Be Dropped.

Saluda. July THE grand jury,
which complete;'' its work and was
discharged Yesterday afternoon, II
tie presentment states that there are
but five inmates Of the county poor
house.
4 most striking recommendation is
in reference to the charge against
Pope B. Havird for murder. It will
be recalled that Havird was indicted
at the December term Of court on the
charge Of killing negro some ten
years ago. Upon a true bill being
found. his attorneys moved for a
change Of venue upon the numerous
afiSdavits to the effect that it was
doubtful if Havird could get fair
and impartial trial before a Saluda
jury. Judge Shipp granted the
change of venue and the case was
sent over to Edgefeld for trial. At
th. last term Of court for that coun-
ty it was continued. The following
in reference to that case occurs in
the final presentment Of the grand
jury yesterday:
"a true bill was found by a for
mar grand jury against Pope B. Hav-
ird for murder alleged to have been
committed ten years ago. AS petit
tions signed by some of the best men
Of our county, together with evidence
including the father Of the supposed
dead man. that he is still alive, we
recommend that the case be set
aside.'
There were no exhibits attached
to the presentment showing who sign
ed the petitions Or showing the con-
tents Of the petitions Or showing on
what is based the statement that the
supposed dead man is alive.
AS matter Of fact the people of
the county at large have taken very
little interest in the prosecution of
A1dS IIu LII lu1S luollCl i1C AhlAO1
tion was given the solicitor by Hav-
ird 5 own people and the solicitor in
the discharge of his duty investi-
gated the matter and had warrant
issued and handed ont an indictment
against Havird. The grand jury be-
fore whom the bill went last year,
of which at least six Of the present
grand jury were members promptly
returned true bill AS stated, the
case on Havird's own showing was
transferred to Edgefeld, county and
is now on the docket there.
Some of Havird's kinsmen have
asserted that they saw the negro's
dead body in the woods where he and
Havird were splitting rails and that
Havird piled brush and logs on the
corpse and burned it.

er members Of the association. A mo-
ton was then made that Mr.. kohn's
election be made unanimous, the mo-
ton being carried, and Col. Aull an
nounced that Mr.. Kohn was unanl-
mously elected president Of the aSso-
citation.
The general satisfaction with which
the election of Mr.. Kohn has been re-
ceived is an indication of the high ap-
preciation which the association has
of his unfagging interest in Journal
comes to him absolutely unsought,
istic affairs and his tireless efforts on
behalf Of the association. The honor
comes to him absolutely unsought
and is all the greater because Of the
unanimity and enthusiasm with which
he was elected. At the same time,
however, the resignation Of Col. Aull
has been accepted with profound re-
gret. During the fifteen years Of his
presidency the association has pros
pered and waxed strong, and there IS
not member who does not appre-
ciate the ability and devotion with
which Col. Aull has labored.
After the election Of president,
VIM. Banks was elected first vice
president and J. C. Mace, second vice
president. R. L. Freeman was elected
secretary. J. L. Sims treasurer and f..
H. Aull, E. H. DeCamp and ". T..
Gonzales we're elected members Of the
executive committee. An amendment to
the constitution was offred by Mr..
Knight and adopted, under which all
officers. with the exception Of secre-
tarv and treasurer. are not eligible
for office after serving two years.
After hard fought contest Glenn
Springs was selected as the next
meeting place Of the association. In
vitation were extended by Clemson
college and Glenn Springs and lively
debate ensued as to the best meeting
place. Glenn Springs won after a
lengthy discussion. Free entertain
ment was rendered by both places.
Papers this morning were read by
J. A. Hoyt. of the Columbia Record,
on "The Technical Construction of
a Newspaper Story" by Pres. Aull
for ". W. Smoak. who was absent, on
"A Country Weekly" S. E. Boney,

This afternoon papers were read in

and Southron; Hugh Wilson, Of the
Abbeville Press and Banner.
The weather has been very inclem-
ent today, and the entertainment at
the Country club had to be dispensed
with and also the trip to the ball
game. The visitors have been forced
to remain in doors, but the spacious
lobby Of the Ottaray has furnished a
pleasant promenading place for the
visitors, and all day it has been filed
with the editors and their wives and
friends.

Of Cherokee county's most prominent
citizens, lies dead at his home, two
miles north Of Gatfney, with bro

what hour it took place, as Mr.. Sar-
ra1t was in the habit of sleeping on
the portico Of the second story, and
when the family arose this morning
he was found on the door. steps with
his neck broken. However. the body
was still warm when found. 1t is
thought that it happened about I
o'clock this morning.

all over the county. having many
prominent connections, and being

this section practically all his life,

BALLADE OF DEAD ACTORS.

Where are the passions they essayed,
And where the tears they made to
flow?
Where the wild humors they por-
trayed
For laughing worlds to see and
know?
Othello's wrath and Juliet's woe?
Sir Peters whims and Timon's
gall?
And Millamont and Romeo?
Into the night 60 one and all.
Where are the barveries. fresh or
frayed?
The plumes, the armors-friend
and foe?
The cloth of gold, the rare brocade,
The mantles glittering to and fro?
The pomp, the pride, the royal shoWY
The cries of war and festival?
The youth, the grace, the charm, the
glow?
Into the night go one and alE
The curtain falls, the play is played;
The beggar packs beside the beau;
The Monarch troops, and troops the
maid;
The thunder huddles with the snow.
Where are the revelers, high and
low?
The clashing swords? The lovers
call?
The dancers cleaning row on row?
Into the night 60 one and all.
ENVOY.

readily see that the mistake

like all mortals, are Liable to
make mistakes and should not
be Judged hastily. That section
of the bill relating to obtaining
permission of the owner OF the
lands adjoining a stream to en-
ter thereon for the purpose OF
fishing is practically a re-enact'
ment of the law as it now stands.
For several years it has been
against the law to enter upon
the lands of another without his
permission for the purpose OF
fishing. This bill, which is one

Lake City, February 9:-There
were a number of forest fires in this
section last Friday. The woods
were very dry and the high winds
whipped the flames into fierce con-
flagrations. In one of these fires the
whole woodland from Mr. T S Lees
store northwestward to the farms
of Messrs T P Graham and j W
McCutchen was swept by terrific
flames, which despite the efforts OF
all the men of the community, burn.

o'clock at night.
1t has been many years since there
was so little water iii the country as
now. The ponds, branches and
creeks which, at this time of the
year are almost invariably filled
with water, are dry, and the grasses,
bushes and other vegetation of the
forest are very dry.
