The man with whom one usually needs
to exercise the most patience is himself.
Impatience has ruined many man who
started in life with bright prospects.
Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1911-06-29

1t is of but little value to acquire
knowledge unless one uses it for the ben
ett of his fellow men. To keep what
one has learned to himself is nothing
but selfshness.
Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1911-06-29

AS rule the men who are most hated
are also the most loved. They are men
of strong convictions, and that quality
both repels and attracts.

shootina Stars.

Astronomers estimate that about
1J0O0O,0O0,000 of shooting stars reach
this earth in the form of meteOrites or
dust every year OF course shooting
stars in reality are not stars at all;
they are little cosmic particles, often
weighing much less than one ounce
and composed mostly OF iron and car
bon Most Of them travel around the
sun IN the same fashion that comets
do, following very flattened elliptical
trajectories. Sometimes 1t happens
that the trajectory of some Of these
bodies cross the trajectory Of our own
earth. If the little meteorite and the
earth get to that point at the same
time they naturally collide. These
panetoids are not luminous in them
selves. SO long as they fly through
ether (Which Is utter nothingness) there
Is no friction; therefore no heat and 10
light But as soon as they enter the
atmosphere with which our globe is
surrounded their speed is so great that
the friction against the air immediate
ly lights and volatilizes them.-New
York World.

A GOOD ROAD SUGGESTION.

We arc informed that the county
authorities will put the county hands
to work on the Seneca-Walhalla road
at an early date. The road needs
some work badly, and 1t would be
we'll to do more than give 1t an or
binary working" 1t Is an import
ant highway, and should be MAIN
tanned in better shape than 1t ordi-
narily Is, but we all realize that the
county Is, and has been for years,
lacking In funds to maintain the
highways In first Class shape.
1t strikes US, however, that an
unusually good working and broad
ening of this important highway
would be Of great benefit to the pub
lie, and we suggest that the owners
OF property along the road, as well
as others interested. confer with the
authorities, and make arrangements
to give them what aid Is necessary
to put the road in good shape. The
direct benefit to property through or
along which a good road runs is mar
velous, yet we seldom realize 1t suf-
fciently to put into one a little
money or time and labor.
We believe, however, that this
suggestion Is we'll worth the consid-
Grafton Of the travelling public and
property owners along the Seneca

STAGE COACH FATALITY.
One Killed and Ten Injured in

Yosemite, Cal, June An a
stage coach runaway in the Yosemite
Valley late yesterday, r. l.. Leisen-
sing Of Allentown, Pa, was killed,
three women we're seriously injured
and seven other persons sustained
minor injuries. The coach was on
a steep grade between the Big Tree
Grove, at Wacana, aud the floor Of
the Yosemite Valley. The party,
numbering forty persons, occupied
four big mountain stage coaches.
At a steep grade the horses Of the
front stage became frightened. The
brakes failed to hold and the team
gallopcd down the winding road
with the stage swinging from side
to side between a high bank and a
sharp precipice, while the passengers
screamed In fright. Convinced that
he could not stop the animals, the
driver finally turned them straight
into the a of the cliff. The stage
turned over and several Of the pas
sengers were caught beneath It..
~Leisensing was thrown clear, but
struck on his skull. ,-f b.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

We have not heard Of any pro-
position that has met with such uni
form favor as that Of the proposed
County Fair. Oconee must have it;
we need 1t for more reasons than
one; they are almost innumerable.
Only this week we we're asked by
a good farmer II the County Fair is
going to be a go. Why did he ask ?
Not from idle curiosity. we can us
sure you. He remarked, however,
that he is the ~possessor of an UNI
usually fine COW and calf that he
wants to exhibit. and then, too, in
cidently he stated hat he had some
hogs that he believes would take q
premium at any fair.
But the interest In the matter does
not stop there. This farmer said that
If we are going to have a County
Fair he wants to give the animals
that he will exhibit a little extra
care, and right there is where one
Of the greatest and widest benefits
will accrue to the county at large
from a County Fair. There Is a
large quantity Of good. improved
stock in Oconee, but II IS scattered
over a wide range of territory, and
few people other than the owners
ever see the best hat we have.
Others are satisfied with poorer
stock because they do not see that
which is better; there is nothing to
appeal to their pride in the matter
OF having stock as good as others.
We need a County Fair-and a
good, live one, lOo-ito let those
who have given little attention to
improved stock, improved crops and
improved methods, see what these
better things mean to the men who
are striving to attain to the best.
a County Fair will appeal to our
individual pride in our possessions,
and it will result in the substitution
Of good stock in place of common
stock, good crops for Indifferent ones,
and the proper care Of what we have
instead Of haphazard methods. or no
method at all.
We need something to make us
ashamed Of some things we have,
and ashamed OF the fact that we
have not many things that we ought
to have.
a good County Fair will have that
effect. Let us not let the proposition
die for lack Of interest or lack of
workers.

Only Three States Pacincd.

Mexico City, June 3.--President
DE La Barra in a speech to army
generals to-day admitted that only
three Of twenty-seven States of the
Mexican republic have been pacifed
Chihuahua, Hidalgo and Zacatc-
cas-. Evidently the President fears
detection in the army. He promised
reward for soldiers remaining faith
full to the present government.
In an effort to avert threatened
famine all over the republic, the
government has taken off the duty
on corn and ordered enormous ship
mcnts from the United States. The
government will regulate prices.
