Sunday School Population.

The following is from the proceed
ings of the State Sunday school con-
vention:
"of interest to all Sunday school
workers in the State were the statis-
tics given by Prof. Keitt in the re-
sponse "Our Goal" He called atten-
ton to the goal fixed by the Interna-
tional association, and then showed
what South Carolina, as an integral
part of the great association must do
in order to help accomplish the great
goal He showed that there was a
Sunday school population in South
Carolina of 1,515, 400, but an actual en-
rolment of only 369,577, showing l.
1883 as a possibility in Sunday
school enrolment. If South Carolina
does her part of the accomplishment
of the triennial goal, she must add to
the enrolment 21,037. There must be
added 32 mission Sunday schools, 10
organized classes, 1O4 teachers train
ing classes and 21,037 conversions.
When the matter of teachers training
classes was taken up actively a few
years ago, there was only one teach
er in every Ill teachers a member OF
a training class. Last year it had
been brought down to one in y; now
it is proposed to bring it to one in five.
These figures are very gratifying to
all Sunday school workers. Prof.
Keitt also stated that one-half of all
the Sunday school workers in the
world were in America. The meeting
of the executive committee was pro-
nounced a splendid success.

Death of Mr.. w. H. Hunter.

Mr.. William H. Hunter died sudden
ly on Thursday morning at about 8
o'clock. He was about his work in
the city on Wednesday, apparently
we'll. Ate a hearty supper Wednesday
night, but complained little during
the night. Thursday morning before
breakfast he came from his room to
get a cup of coffee and while getting
the milk he fell in the hallway and
was assisted into the room. Physi-
clans and friends came promptly at
the alarm to render assistance, but
death had been instantaneous. He
died of heart failure from acute indi-
gestion. Mr.. Hunter was 49 years old.
He leaves a wife and two adopted
children. He was a member of the
Presbyterian church, and was identi-
fed with the city as a very active and
courageous fireman, and in other ways
always ready and willing to respond
to the call Of duty, even at the risk of
his life in the face of danger. He was
an accomplished printer and took
great pride in his work, at the time of
his death being engaged in soliciting
advertisements for the Chautauqua
booklet now under way. His death
was a shock to his friends who receiv-
ed the sad news with deep regret, and
there is not one in the community in
which he grew up who will be unre-
sponsive to the echo Of kind words
to the memory of Billie Hunter.
The funeral procession will leave

NEWBERRY WINS ANOTHER.
Lutheran Boys Overcome a 3 to 0
Lead in Eighth, and Win From
Presbyterians i to 3.

Newberry came back strong in the
eighth last Tuesday, and defeated the
Presbyterian college 4 to 2. Things
looked gloomy for the Scarlet and Gray
until the eighth when, after Becker
had famed, Boozed slammed one to
the fence for two bags. Smeltzer sin
gled cleanly through short, and An
derson, who had up to this, been
twirling invincible ball, was relieved
by Smith, who gave Floyd free tick
ct to first, filing the bases. Wise tried
to kill the ball, but hit a slow one
down the third base line which he beat
out, and on which BooZer crossed the
rubber for Newberrys first score.
Smith now went up in the air and
walked Keitt, forcing in the tying run.
Perrit singled cleanly through third
and Floyd tailed. Edison popped out
to first, but Shealy connected with one
of Smiths fast ones for a one-timer
to centre, scoring Wise. Becker was
out, pitcher to first.
Edison was little off in the first
inning, but he soon steadied and pitch
ed a beautiful game, allowing but
seven hits and neither giving single
base on balls, nor hitting any of the
visitors.
Anderson pitched brilliantly until
the seventh, when he began to weak
en-, and was replaced in the eighth by
Smith, after allowing two hits. Smith
was wild and did not seem to have
anything at all On the ball, walking
two men and allowing three hist in
two thirds of an inning.
The Presbyterians scored in the
opener on Smiths single and Fuller's
two Dagger, and again in the sixth
when Leaman singled and advanced
to third on Smiths hit to right. Smith
was caught off of first, and while
he was being played between first and
second, Leaman scored.
The Newberry boys, as a whole,
played fast, snappy and aggressive
ball, Wise, Keitt and Smeltzer show
ing up especially we'll. They hit the
ball hard during all stages of the
game, but as luck would have it, they
generally drove it straight at some one
of the visitors. A team that hits the
ball, as did the home team last Tues
day, is bound to win a majority Of its
games, and will prove itsef to be an
important factor in the awarding Of
the championship.
Leaman, of the visitors, carried off
the batting honors of the day By hit
ting safely three out of four times up.
Smith and Fuller each registered two
hits, and in fact, the three players
mentioned above were the only Clin-
tonites to reach first base. Leaman,
Simpson and Falls played excellent
ball for the Presbyterians, each rob-
bing Newberry of several hits.
Clemson plays here Friday and Sat-
urday of this week, and on the 3rd and
4th of May the Newberry squad will
journey to Greenville for the last two
games of the season, with Furman.
The season, thus far, has been very
successful as Newberry has won seven
out of the eight games played, and if
the Clemson Tigers are defeated the
1911-12 championship pennant will 6e

Umps calls play" next year.

tic Title of the

Georgetown Preparatory School and
Technical High School will play the
first game of their championship series
tomorrow afternoon on the Hilltop field
at o'clock, and a great exhibition of
the national pastime should be the re-
suit. as both mines are going at top
speed and both are anxious to capture
the District title.
If confidence counts for anything. the
Blue and Gray youngsters should be
able to win premier honors in straight
games, for since their victory over Cen
tral last Saturday they express no doubt
as to their ability to take the Black
smiths into camp In both games. Their
record of two victories over Western
High School and an even break with
Central. both of which mines Tech just
managed to defeat, seems to be more
or less of a firm foundation for the
confidence of the embryo collegians.
Marum will catch, and is being count
ed upon to prevent the Blacksmiths
from running wild on the bases. The
