United States Revenue Cutter Adris-

Halifax, y. S.-The new Canadian
navy was nearly deprived of half its
strength when the flagship Niobe
crashed on the ledges on the south
west of Cape Sable. Five hours later
she foated, leaking badly and proceed
ed under her. own power to Shag Har-
bor ten miles away. where she is at
anchor with six fathoms Of water and
a soft mud bottom under her.
The first to reach the side OF the
disabled cruiser was the United States
revenue cutter Adroscoggin, which
was cruising in the vicinity. The
Niobe wireless call for help was pick
ed up by the Androscoggin and was
promptly flashed that she would stand
by to help and I'D do all in her
power. Through the dense fog and
heavy sea, which is believed to have
been the cause OF the Niobe accident

ing by the Canadian cruiser when the
Canadian government steamers Lady
Laurier and Stanley. which had been
sent to the scene, arrived from St.
John, n. B., with the tug McNaughton
of Yarmouth.
The Niobe, however, found that she
was able to take care OF herself. AL
though water was pouring into sew
eral compartments, her pumps kept
her fairly clear, and Commander Nc
Donald of the cruiser, expressing his
thanks to the American cutter for her
help, proceeded to a safe harbor, con-
voyed only by the tug.

Nav Mean Extension Of Line.

The most yoluminous mortgage
ever recorded in Aiken county was
received by Clerk OF Court John w.
Dunbar, given by the Augusta-Ai
Railway and Electric corporation to
the Central Trust company of New

is $500. 900, and it is understood that
the greater part of the sum is to be
used for improvement and extensions
OF the line.
The mortgage is printed in book
form and is 126 legal size pages. 1t

and that the remainder will be used
in improving the roadbed Of the

Erstwhile Parson is In Bad.

Danville, Va.-A telegram received
from Knoxville, Tenn, states that Rev.
D. P. Tate, former prominent Meth.
odist minister and more recently an
insurance, real estate and rental
agent OF this city, had been arrested
on a number of charges of fraud COM
mitted here. The former parson, after
securing thousands of dollars by ques-
tionable methods, skipped Danyille
about two months ago. He had been
gone several days before his victims
thoroughly awoke to the fact that
they had been swindled and notified
the police. Since that time Tate has
been on the dodge.
Tate came to Danville in the fall
of 1909. He had formerly been
member of the Western North Caro-
lima Conference and the fact that he
still masqueraded as a Methodist min
lister gave him standing and
credit that he would otherwise have
had hard task in securing He wore
his clerical garb and was very active
in Sunday school and church work.

REPORT ON SCHOOL STUDIES
Committee Appointed Last Year For
muIates Four-Year Course For
High Schools Of State.

Columbia.-At the high school con-
ference held in Columbia during the
month of May. 1910, committee was
appointed to formulate q course Of
study to be. submitted to the high
schools OF the state. That committee
consisted OF the following: ". H.
Hand, W. X. Tate, E. S. Dreher. S. H.
Edmunds, o. NJ. Mitchell and Frank
Evans. After months of study, the
committee recommends the following
courses OF study to the high schools:
/. That all recitation periods ir
the high school be As minutes in
length, except In one-teacher high
schools. where the periods should be
80 minutes each.
2. That in one-teacher high
school not more than a two-year
programme should be attempted.
8. That four-year programme
should not be attempted by two high
school teachers.
4. That no high school pupil be
given more than five subjects In any
one year.
5. That high schools running less
than nine months, or thirty-six weeks,
do not undertake to cover the same
ground undertaken by schools run
ming nine months.
s. That for three-year programmes
the first three years of the respec-
tive four-year programme here offered
be taken with the necessary readjust-
ment
7. That since pupils differ widely
in capacity, application, opportunities
and preparation, provision should be
made against the injustice OF requir-
ing all pupils to DO the same work
in the same given time. This can be
done by permitting pupils to take less
than the allotted work of any given
year, and to spend more than the
allotted time to complete the cur
riculum.
s. That neither physics nor chem
istry be undertaken in any school
without some apparatus for teaching
these subjects.
9. That neither botany nor ply
sical geography be taught without
making regular field excursions and
keeping note books Of field work.
10. That from ten to twelve
scholastic months be given to the
mastery of the beginners Latin book
in classes with more than four sub
jects.
II. That some easy Latin be read
before taking up Caesar.
IL. That the latter part OF the
second year and the whole OF the
third year be devoted to Caesar and
Cicero.
13. That the fourth year be de-
voted to Ovid or Yergil, or that the
year be divided between the two
authors.

DECLARES ACT IS
CONSTITUTIONAL
MR.. LYON ISSUES LENGTHY
OPINION ON REQUEST OF
GEORGE Won koLiNTZ.
IMPORTANT TO LOW COUNTRY
Attorney General Points Out Validity
Of Objections Raised BY George Won
koinitz Authorizing Condemnation
Of Lowiands For Drainage Purposes.

Columbia.-In d lengthy opinion.
written on request OF George F. Won
Kolnitz, of Charleston, the Attorney
General Mr.. j. Fraser Lyon, holds
that the Drainage Act Of 1911, which
provides for the condemnation of
lowlands for drainage and the equi-
table assessment of all lands so drain
ed for the purpose of paying the e1-
pense of the drainage work is entire
ly constitutional. The Attorney Gen.
eral advises that the Clerk of Court
for Charleston County, who held up
certain drainage projects upon receiv-
ing from Mr. Won Kolnitz an opinion
that the Drainage Act was probably
unconstitutional, go ahead now and
carry out the provisions of the Act.
This decision is of the utmost impor-
tance to the low country.
1t Is expected that numbers OF
movements for the formation Of drain
age districts, which were suspended
when the Charleston clerks of Court
raised the question OF the laws val
idity, will now be pressed forward
to conclusion. The opinion follows:
Hon. George F. Won Kolnitz: Your
letter OF the 10Th, urging various OBJ
jections to the Drainage Act, is at
hand and has had my careful con-
sideration. In order that you may be
advised of my opinion without undue
repetition the constitutional points
suggested by you will be grouped
under three heads.
II take the view that those objec
tions are susceptible OF such grouping
when the points involved are con-
sidered in the light of the authorities
which | quote. The objections are
that the Act is unconstitutional: %
In that the assessments to be made
upon the lands benefited are taxes,
and the manner and mode prescribed
for levying the same violate Article
/, Section 6; Article 3. Section 90;
Article s. Section 3, and Article II.
Section 13, of the Constitution OF
South Carolina (2) That the statute
denies persons held for the payment
of assessments without due process
of law and the equal protection of the
law. CD The drainage districts are
quasi municipal corporations, and as
such are prohibited from levying
taxes and issuing bonds under the
provisions of Article 8. Section 3, and
Article 10. Section 6, of the Consti-
tuition of this State. The other OBJ
jections which you wish to urge as
l gather from your letter. are that
the Act is fatally defective in that
it is not provided what the summons
provided for in Section shall con-
tain, how it shall be served and how
the costs Of the proceedings shall
be paid.

PelIasra In Many Southern States.

states was the opinion expressed by

disease a careful study. 1t was stated
by DR.. Babcock that the number Of
cases at the state hospital for the
insane had not materially increased
during the past several weeks, bu5
that reports received from various
sections Of the South indicated that
the disease was increasing DR.. Bah
cock was asked If the excessive hot
weather caused the increase in he
number OF diseases. He was unable
to say. The hospital commission
charged with the work of erecting the
buildings for the new HOSPITAL a

days when definite steps will oe taken
toward the erection of building 10
