Thos. H. Peoples, a young lawyer
of Barnwell, has announced that he
will run for solicitor of the second
circuit next year. Mr.. Peoples is
now a member of the legislature
from Barnwell county. It is thought
that the present solicitor, Mr.. Gunter
will ask for election, and it is likely
that there will be several candidates
in the field. Bamberg county will nc
doubt be represented in the list OF
candidates.

We know for a fact that Blease
has refused to commission good men
as notaries public, the only reason
being that they were not supporters
of his. The worst part is that no at
tention was paid to their applica-
tions, although he was notified per-
sonally that the application would
be made. This is pretty small busi-
ness, and entirely unworthy of the
governor of a great State.

A Misleading Example.

Pat was promenading up and down
a railway platform in terrible fix,
not knowing what to say to the tick
ct agent when he went for his ticket.
Seeing young lady stroll up to
the ticket agents window he thought
he would follow and hear what she
had to say. So the young lady called
for her ticket in this way: MARY
port; single, please" Then, with a
sigh of relief, Pat goes up to the win
dow and asks for his ticket in this
manner: "Pat Doolan, married and
two children"

It is significant that a man who
was born and reared in Bambere
built the new 100000 hotel in
Spartanburg, which. has just been
opened to the public in that city. It
shows that people from Bamberg are
progressive and willing to invest
their money. Mr.. T. A. Green is the
owner of the new hotel, and his rec
ord as a business man in the city OF
success has been one that his many
Bamberg friends are proud of.

SIGNS ASYLUM ACT.
Gov. BleAse Drops Three of Former
Commission.

Commission.
Columbia, April 3.-Gov. Blease
signed the resolution relating to the
new auxiliary State hospital for the
insane and announced the personnel
of the new commission in charge Of
the development of this plant, as fol-
lows: DR.. J. w. Babcock, Columbia;
DR.. Robert Wilson, Jr.,. Charleston;
Mr.. Elbert H. Aull, Newberry; Mr..
John F. Floyd, Spartanburg; Mr..
Jas. NJ. Payne, Anderson. The COM
mission will now proceed with the
erection of the building on the site
of about 1000 acres recently acquir-
ed in Richland county at cost OF
about S46,7O9. For the current year
it has an appropriation of 100000,
besides an unexpected balance from
last year of about s40,000.'
The commission is given unlimited
discretion as to it's plans for the new
plant.
Drs. Babcock and Wilson are men,
bers of the commission by virtue Of
their Offices, the former being super
intendent of the State hospital for
the insane and the latter chairman
of the State board of health.
Messrs. Aull, Floyd and Payne dis
place Governor Ansel's appointees,
Messrs. R. o. Purdy, of Sumter; Geo.
B. Cromer, of Newberry, and Leroy
Springs, of Lancaster, Gov. Blease
having been quoted as saying some
days ago that inasmuch as he believ-
ed in the Jacksonian motto, "To the
victor belong the spoils," he pur-
posed appointing to these three po-
sitions friends of his own.
The New Members.
Mr.. Aull, formerly member of
the house of representatives, is pro-
prietor of the Newberry Herald and
News and head of several other New
berry enterprises. He was for years
president of the State Press Associ-
alton. Mr.. Floyd was formerly
mayor of Spartanburg. He is a
brother to the former Columbian,
Mart Floyd, who is now postmaster
at Spartanburg. Mr.. Payne, not now
in public life, was for nearly 20 years
treasurer of Anderson county. Gov.
Blease said Monday that he under
stood all three of these gentlemen
would serve.
The terms of Commissioners Bab-
cock, Wilson, Purdy and Springs ex-
pire Wednesday,; the term Of Com
missioner Cromer expires tomorrow.
Law Changed.
Gov. Blease has deliberated long
over the joint resolution, relating to
the new hospital. 1t was passed
during the last days Of the legisla-
tive session, which ended in Febru-
ary. Originally the resolution auto
matically continued in office the orig.
inal commission, as appointed by
Gov. Ansel; but Representative Geo.
R. Rembert, of Richland, made
against it the point that it seemed
hardly courteous to Gov. Blease to
command him to reappoint the entire
commission, in the selection of which
he had no voice; and with this view
the legislators agreed. The resolu-
ton was amended accordingly, so as
to leave Gov. Blease free to appoint
whom he wished, with the recon-
mendation, however, that he continue
in office the incumbents 'if in his
opinion it is wise to do so, because
of the "service of great value to the
State" rendered and the valuable ex-
perience already gained.

BALKS AT NEGRO.
Girl Model Draws Color Line in Chi
cago Art School.

Hereafter negroes will be barred
admission to the art classes in Chi
cago. The climax to the question was
brought about last week in Chicago
through the following incident re-
lated by the Chicago Tribune:
A beautiful girl model standing on
a raised dais before Boutwood's life
class of men students raised her
hands to her throat and was about
TO fling away the long kimona that
draped her figure from the nape Of
her softly curved neck to her bare
feet.
AS she did so her eyes took in the
men OF the class, one by one. At last
they rested on Thomas Downs, ne
gro. Then suddenly the hands which
had been fumbling with the cord at
her throat paused. A deep flush
spread over the face of the girl.
Turning to one of the men students
in the first room she said in half
whisper:
''I'll not pose so long as that
that-black man is in the room. You
must get him to leave if stay
Downs was on his feet in an in
stant. This was the first time in the
history of the life classes at the Art
Institute that the color line had ever
been drawn. A half dozen other stu
dents stood up when Downs did.
They looked at Downs and Downs
looked at them expectantly. Then
with a nuttered protest Downs walk
ed to and out of the door.
An instant later the kimona had
been tossed away and the work of
the life class was on.
That was all there was to it ex-
cept the congratulations and ap-
plause that came to Miss Blanha-:
that is the name of the model-after
the class was over; but it marks the
beginning of a new order Of things
in the life classes at the Art Insti-
tute. From now on no negroes will
be admitted to the classes in which
girls pose.
There has for long time been an
undercurrent of protest both among
the students and the models against
compelling beautiful young girls to
pose before negroes. This feeling
never found voice until yesterday.
The models were afraid to speak for
fear of losing their positions, the girl
students remained silent in dread of
being ridiculed for prudery, and the
men said nothing because it did not
seem thing for man to talk about.
Miss Blanha's action solved the sit
uation. She did what every one
seemed to want to have done and
what no one seemed willing to do.
Miss Blanha-her first name is
Mamie-lives at S12 Southwestern
avenue. She has been chosen to pose
for the class because of the exquis-
iteness of her figure, which is said to
be almost Grecian in it's classicalness.
Yesterday was her first appearance
before Boutwell's class.
"The other girls had told me what
1 was to expect when I posed before
this Glass;" said Miss .Blanha, land
how they dreaded to do it. I made
up my mind that some one would
have to take a decisive stand i the
mater, and as 1 have personally such
a great aversion to colored men that
it would have been almost impossible
for me to force myself to pose before
one of them, determined to bring
on a crisis of some sort. am glad
that matters have turned out.as they
have to take a decisive. sta1fk in the
