pulled himself together and hurried
round the building. listening with
shameless citation to the storm Of an
ger which followed Blackstock's rec
ognition Of the mishap.
A chair scraped roughly on the floor
and fell with a crash: something else
was thrown violently down; Black
stock got his breath deliberately and
the doors and windows of the oper-
ating room became jammed with bias
phemy. Discreetly Coast paused and
waited until the mans tongue began
to falter. until the oaths escaped from
him a trickle rather than a, deluge.
until he stopped short. his system
wrung dry of profanity. Then Coast
advanced.
He found Blackstock striding to and
fro and mumbling a cigar. the scowl
that darkened his countenance sug-
costing a state OF perturbation and
anxiety no less acute than Coasts.

"Oh, you think SO. eh?" commented
Blackstock with an accent Of irony

The silent moment ended In the
crashing of the wireless. At the re-

woman moved quickly over to the

round Coasts forearm.
From colorless lips her voice came

This cottage, which embraces the
best architecture of both ancient and
modern design, was originally COM
menced in the year 1776, foundations
being laid in thatsyear. The construc-
ton was pushed rapidly until 1875
when the old German renaissance
style was mingledwith the more mod
ern or rAmerican construction, thus in
1912 we view the almost complete
structure, with the dedication posi-
lively appointed for memorial day,
1913. 1t is planned to erect suit
able inscription on a stone slab to be
set up within, but it is deeply regret
ted that the original plans and name
of the architect were destroyed by
Sherman in 1854 in his memorable
march to the sea, which has made it
very difficult and tedious to carry out
the original plans as interpreted by
the present builders.

ATTEMPTED ASSAULT.
Young Negro Attempts Dastardly
Crime on White Child.

Tuesday afternoon there was
brought to Bamberg and lodged in
jail a negro boy named Lee Jones,
about eighteen years old, charged
with the horrible crime of attempted
assay't upon a little white girl, six
teen years old, the daughter of a
prominent farmer who lives near
town. The child is very small for
her age, having been afflicted all of
her life.
The negro was brought to town by
the father of the child, which shows
a respect for law and that he was
willing to let, the fiend be dealt with
according to law.
Some time Tuesday the child start
ed to go to a neighbor's house, and
she had to pass through small patch
of woods on the way. While pass
ing through the woods the negro at
tackled her, but her screams and re-
sistance frightened him away and he
did not. succeed in accomplishing his
foul purpose. The girl made Wig
orous defense, and in the struggle
she was not hurt but badly excited
and her nerves upset. AS soon as the
negro fled she returned home and
told her parents, she recognizing the
negro, and he was soon arrested at
his plow in the field, which he had
left to attack the child. The negro
worked on the plantation Of this gen.
tleman, and had been fed from his
table. At first harsh measures were
advocated, but the mother Of the
child pleaded that her husband not
stain his hands with the blood Of the
brute, and finally the negro was
brought to Bamberg by the father
and turned over to the authorities.
1t is said that he confessed the crime
as soon as he was arrested, and he
will no doubt meet the death penalty
for his crime.

The Conference.

The meeting of the Orangeburg
district conference with the Barn
well Methodist church last week,
beginning on Wednesday evening,
brought many good ministers and
worthy laymen to town. Homes of
members of all denominations gave
them welcome and if the visitors
were as we'll satisfied with their stay
as their hosts were pleased the meet
ing was in every particular a perfect
success. The absence of Pastor w.
J. Snyder, who had not returned from
Columbia, where he had undergone
an operation for appendicitis, was
regretted. Presiding Elder NJ. L..
Banks was too unWell at his home
in Orangeburg to be present until
Friday. All church interests were
reported in satisfactory condition.
Next year the conference will be held
at Holly Hill.
The delegates elected to the an
nual conference to be held in Ander-
son next November are: William
McNab, of Barnwell; W. D. Rhoad, of
Bamberg; C. F. Rizer, of Olar; and
A. C. Dibble, of Orangeburg; with

Carlisle Fitting School.

The nineteenth annual commence
ment exercises of the Carlise Fitting
School will take place June l to g.,
inclusive. The school is closing one
of it's most successful years and it is
thought that this will be one of it's
best commencement.
The first night of the commence
ment is known as students Night, !"
and is usually one of the most inter-
esting and largely attended occasions
of the commencement season. This
year students night will be unusually
attractive, as the students have at
tempted something that is very un-
usual-the presentation Of the old
English morality play, "Everyman. ="
This play was written and presented
during the early part of the seven
teenth century and was one of the
most popular and stirring Of the
morality plays that were presented
to the English public during that
time. Much interest has recently
been revived in this play by its re-
publication and presentation by few
companies. Recent plays, "Everywo-
man" and Undergraduate" are in
dications of this renewal of interest.
The presentation of such play by
amateurs will be watched with keen
interest by the friends of the stu
dents and those interested in things
historic. In addition to the play
choruses and instrumental selections
will be furnished by the students, as
will be throughout the commence
ment exercises.
On Sunday morning, June 2, the
annual commencement sermon will
be preached by the Rev. j. Walter
Daniel, D. D., of Charleston, and on
Sunday night DR.. Daniel will preach
the annual sermon before the Young
Peoples Christian Association.
On Monday evening the annual ad-
dress before the literary societies
will be delivered in the school audi
torium by the Hon. NJ. L. Smith, OF
Camden. Mr.. Smith is a strong man
and an eloquent speaker. His ad-
dress is being looked forward to with
much pleasure. After this address
the graduating exercises will take
place and at their conclusion the GER
tificates of graduation will be deliv-
cred by Head Master Guilds. Six
young ladies and one young man will
receive certificates.
