Eight city officials of Hammond, on
junket, arrived in Buffalo, n. Y. this
morning to inspect the new pump now
under construction for the Hammond
pumping station. 1t is presumed that
the taxpayers will pay the cost of the
trip.
Thanks to the solid and heavily bal
lasted roadbed of the Michigan Central
railroad the citys representatives slept
well in their Pullman berths, and en-
joyed a well appointed breakfast be-
fore starting out on their onerous du-
ties of inspecting the pump.
None of the members of the junket-
ing party lays any special claims to
being an expert engineer capable of
analyzing the work and material that
is going into the construction of the
pump. Jacob Kasper. the engineer at
the pumping station is a member of
the party and his ability to inspect the
new pump intelligently is unquestion-

A NARROWING EXPERIENCE.
Prof. S.vittenberg and Family on
the Island During Storm.

Prof and Mrs J " Swittenberg
and their visitors, Mrs J W Riser
and infant child from New Decatur,
Alabama. were on Sullivan's Island
Saturday and Sunday. during the
hurricane, not being able to get
away until Monday afternoon.
Mr. Swittenberg relates thrilling
experience Saturday night and real
ly his party must have had an un-
pleasantly narrow escape from
death or serious injury. When the
storm was brewing they moved from
the cottage they were occupying in
to one more strongly built and dur
ing the night their former dwelling
was swept away and the site cover
ed with water. The cottage they
occupied was partly blown away;
the door fastenings were broken and
when the tempest ragged most fu-
riously it took six men to hold one
of the doors shut.
Many of the islanders are indebt-
ed to the soldiers from the nearby
forts and the coast guards for their
safety, but for whose heroic efforts,
Mr. Swittenberg says, several hum
dred lives would probably have been
lost on Sullivan's Island.
Mr. and Mrs Swittenberg came
here Tuesday morning none the
worse for their narrowing exper'
ience except the loss of most of their
clothing, etc, their trunks having
been swept out Of the cottage dur
ing the storm and the contents satu-
rated with water, so that when re-
covered nearly everything was ruin
ed.
Prof Swittenberg says that ne
enjoys his experience in retrospect,
but he would not undergo again so
strenuous an ordeal for any amount
of money.

A BATCH OF NEWS
FROM LAKE CITY,
RUNAWAY ACCIDENT BLOOD
ON THE MOON--THE STORM
NEWSPAPER SUSPENDS.

Lake City, August 29:-Miss Wv
ian Parrott, of Old Effingham, Wis
tied her cousins, Misses Sallie and
Gretchen Bass, last week.
DR. W Lynch was noted in town
from Scranton one day last week.
On last Friday, just as Mr. j S
Lynch was about entering his bug
gy at the Baptist church at Scranton
to return to his home in Lake City,
the horse, taking fright at an UNI
brella, dashed off, knocking Mr.
Lynch down and dragging the bug
gy over his body. He was bruised
50 badly that he was unable to be
out for few days, but was not Sc
riously injured.
DR. L D Bass and daughter, Miss
Oneida, of Mexia, Tex, spent last
week in town with relatives. They
were on their way home from tour
of about three months in Europe. {.
Mr. w C Kelley of Marion was in
town the early part of last week.
Some folks seem determined to
keep the record up. Three fights
are the entries for the week just
closed. First, two young white
men, who would hardly be pleased
to see their names mentioned here,
had a general 'mix-up. We un-
derstand that knucks and so on were
employed and that the blood flowed
freely. The towns contribution
box got about $50 out of this. Next,
Zingle Brown hit Isaac Burgess over
the head with piece of wood and,
mirubile dictu!, the skull was crack
ed. Isaac walked into town, had
the shingles of his roof patched,
bought a box of shells and went
hunting for Zingle. The chaingang
got thirty days out of Zingle and
the General Sessions court got a
'nigger" to try for busting" an
other "nigger's' head. Then Sam
Cockfeld boarded the train, got into
a regular "hot-supper" row, broke
out a few windows of the car, and
went to the refrigerator When
last interviewed Sunday he was
weeping large "weeps' in anticipa-
ton of the meeting of Mondays
court. The way of the transgressor
is hard, but the lot of the communi-
ty that bears the blame for his
meanress, is harder still.
The storm of Sunday and Monday
did very little damage here. The
rain fell in torrents, wetting the earth
as it had not been wet in a year, ,and
the wind broke off some leaves and
rotten limbs and scared folks gen.
orally. Most all roofs leaked and
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1911-08-31

some to such an extent as to dam
age furniture, etc. Further than
this there was but little damage.
Mrs w T Moody, who has been
quite i'll several days, was taken to
an infrmary in Florence Monday.
Mr. L r Truluck and Miss Mollie
a. Matthews were married on the
22nd instant at Pocomoke, Md, the
home of the bride, The young cou-
pie reached here Monday morning,
and will make this their home. For
the present they are at the Halcyon
Hotel.
Application for a charter for the
J NJ Truluck company has been
made to the Secretary of State.
The capital stock is to be s25, 900,
and this company will deal in live
stock, vehicles. harness and saddlery.
1t will take over the business of Mr.
j NJ Truluck, who will be president
of the new company, The promo
ters of the enterprise are Messrs j
NJ Truluck, Joe NJ Eaddy, L R Tru-
luck and j Frank Finegan.
MIR Hayden J Mckenzie was in
Florence Saturday on business.
Mr. E R Rodgers has sold his in
verest in the business of Rodgers &
Wells to his copartner, Mr. D T
Wells. Mr. Wells will continue the
mill business, and Mr. Rodgers will
open up a general hardware mer-
camille business. The store house
lately occupied by Mr. w T Askins
has been secured by Mr. Rodgers for
his hardware store.
We understand that the Lake City
News is about to cease to be. The
report current is that the issue of
this week will be the last. DR. W S
Stokes, some months ago, started
a paper at Marion, and his sons
have been carrying on The News here
since then. Now, for reasons best
known to the owner, The News is to
be discontinued. This adds another
item to the long list of unsuccessful
newspaper ventures at this place.
1t does seem that Lake City could
support paper as well as some
other towns at which they succeed,
but the fact remains that failure has
been the lot of every venture so far.
What is the cause?
Messrs L H Howle,E J Wilkes, w
E Severance, ct al, went to Norfolk,
Richmond, Washington, ct al, ,lastweek
and most of them came back home
wilted collars, shriveled stomachs,et
al, best not specified.

AN INDEPENDENT STAND.
Florence County Trustees Refuse
Behest of State Board Education.

r
Behest of State Board Education.
! A feature of the meeting Of the
Florence county school trustees as
sociation, held at Howe's grove near
this city, today, was the passage of
resolutions denouncing the recent
school book adoption. The resolu-
tions, besides criticising the board
for making the changes, goes on to
inform our State Superintendent Of
Education that we can not and will
not require our schools to conform
,, to the change"
j E Swearingen, State Superin-
tendent of Education, who was pres
ent, said that he fully appreciated the
spirit of the members of the associa-
ton, as his feelings were the same.
An interesting programme for the
meeting had been prepared by Super
intendent Gasque, and it was heart
ily discussed by the trustees. The
subject discussed today pertained
principally to the preparation for
opening the county schools, number
of hours required for school day,
care of the grounds and buildings,
county teachers association, needed
changes in the method of adoption
of text books. The following reso-
luton was offered by S Mckenzie
and unanimously carried:
Whereas, The State board of edu-
cation has seen fit to change 80 per
cent. of the text books for the county
schools of this State, and thereby
causing an unjust and heavy burden
on our people; therefore be it
Resolved, first, That we most Sc
verely criticise said board for this
great injustice done our people of
the State by their action and forcing,
as it does, many dollars from our citi-
zens without giving the people any
satisfactory reason for so doing.
Second, That we. the trustees of
Florence county, condemn the action
of said board.
Third, That we respectfully in
form our State Superintendent o. Ed
ucation that we can not and will not
require the patrons of our schools to
conform to the change.
Fourth, That we extend to State
Superintendent Swearingen our
hearty appreciation for the stand he
has taken in this matter and for the
information he has given u.s."
In the afternoon Messrs Watson,
Knapp, Baker, Smith, and others,
who are touring the State with the
intention of talking scientific farm
ing to the farmers, arrived and made
addresses to the large audience on
agricultural and educational devel-
opment, congratulating this section
on the work being done along these
lines.
