AGREE on Book Prices.

The matter OF the state board of
instruction fixing the price of the high
school text books met with the appro-
val of the legislative committees.
However. it was promised the board
that no legislation would be enacted
compelling the adoption of uniform
text books in the high schools. This
has been suggested in many localities.
1t was pointed out that in high
schools the size of Cambridge City,
Dublin and the like, books containing
the same information as those used
in the local high school would be i'm
practical because the smaller schools
have not the equipment.

COL. i. 7. THOMPSON
LEAVES End REGIMENT
COMMAND WILL BE TURNED
OVER TO ANOTHER OFFICER.
Resignation of Henry T. Thompson
Creates Place Hard to Fill by
Twelve Companies.

The Stale.
Henry T. Thompson, colonel Of the
Second South Carolina regiment, has
resigned as head of this military Or
rganization. The resignation was sent
in yesterday to Gov. Ansel and it
will be necessary for an election to
be ordered to fill the vacancy.
The announcement Of the resigna-
tion Of Col. Thompson will be re-
ceived with much regret in military
circles. His record during service Of
over 80 years has been such that he
is regarded as one of the lealing au-
thorities in the South on the work Of
the National Guard. He has devoted
himself especially to the Second
regiment since being named as its
head, and the fact that his duties
with the New York Life Insurance
company necessitate his retirement
means that the officers charged with
election Of a successor will devote
considerable time to a choice.
Col. Thompson Joined the Govern
or's Guards as a private in 1878, so
that he has had more than 81 years
service in the military of the State
which has been almost continuous,
and during that time he has filed
successfully every grade from prl-
vate to colonel. His first commission
was as second lieutenant in the Rich
land Volunteers. He was assistant
professor at the Citadel IN Charles
ton, with the rank of first lieutenant,
and was captain of the Darlington
Guards in it's palmiest days.
At the outbreak Of the Spanish
American war Col. Thompson organ
lied the Independent battalion, and
was appointed major in command OF
it. Under the second call for troops,
he was promoted to lieutenant colo
rel Of the Second regiment, and as
sisted in its organization. At the
close Of the SpanishAmerican war
President Mckinley appointed him
a captain in the Twenty-ninth U. 5
volunteer infantry, and he organ
lied Company C Of that regiment

This officer concludes his report to
