TWO GRAND OPERAS.
Madam Butterfly For Evening and II Trovatore For Matinee at Davis Theatsr.

Business Manager Richards for the Aborn English Grand Opera company, who was in town on Monday arranging with the Davis theater for the pro- duction of Madame Butterfly, found such a demand for high class opera here that he arranged also for mat inee in which Il Travatore will be put oh. The Aborn company carries alter mating casts with 100 people in en- semble so that the same principals who will appear in the afternoon will not appear again in the evening. Both productions will be entirely new from scenic point of view, and the same company identically will appear here as played for weeks in Boston, 8 weeks in Brooklyn and Baltimore and the season in New York. To complete the perfection of both these popular operas the company carries its own orchestra.

To Pave Sidewalks.

Nothing like agitation espec-
tally when questions of public
Improvements are at stake.
The recent bad weather has
demonstrated the necessity for
better streets and sidewalks in
Pickens and this condition has
brought about a movement on
the part Of the City Council
with the co operation of pr per
ty owners to pave the sidewalks
along main street. It is propos-
ed that the city bear one-third
the expense and the property
owners two-thirds. This begins
to sound like business and is an
indication that there are some
here who are willing to pull
for Pickens. Keep pulling
gentlemen and when you have
succeeded with this undertaking
begin on something else for the
permanent improvement of the
town. Beautify it, and make
it as attractive and inviting as
it is possible to do. This is
one way to bring more people
here and build up the town
Keep pushing and pulling for

Presbyterian Campaign.

The Presbyterians of South
Carolina are engaged in a cam
paign for the purpose of raising
5000, 900 for their educational in
stitutions, viz, the PRESBYTERIAN
College of South Carolina, at
Clinton; Chicora College at
Greenville and the Theological
Seminary Of Columbia. A joint
committee on endowment has
been appointed to manage the
campaign. This com mite con-
sists of nine, three representa-
tives from each of the schools,
the president being one of the
three. The personel of the COM
mittee is as follows: Rev. 3.
E. Gillespie of Yorkville, chair
man: Rev. H. A. Knox, Of
Mayesville, recording secretary;
Mr.. John McSween, Timmons-
vile, treasurer; Rev. B. P. Ried,
Reidville, Mr.. VIM. ?. Anderson
of Westminster, President D,
NJ. Douglas of Clinton, Presi-
dent S. G. Byrd, of Chicora and
President Thornton Whaling
of the Seminary. The financial
secretary Of the committee is
Rev. A. G. Bridgeman, who has
headquarters in Columbia. Tie
plan adopted to raise this amount
is what is known as the short
term simultaneous campaign,
that has been used so success
full by the Young Mems Chris
tian Association all over this
country. The campaign is con-
Quoted by Presbyteries. AS
there are seven Presbyteries of
the Presbyterian church in
South Carolina, there will be
seven campaigns, one to be held
in Enoree Presbytery. Enoree
Presbytery comprises the Pres
byterian churches of Greenville,
Laurens, Spartanburg, Union
and Cherokee (west of Broad
river counties. This Presby-
terry now has 5S churches with
a total membership, according
to last reports Of Sab. These
churches will be asked to raise a
sum of s55, 900 and each church
will have a definite part of this
amount apportioned to it, which
it is expected to raise in a can
vass to last eight days and to be
conducted by picked men of the
particular church.
Here's hoping that each
church in Enoree Pre- sbytery
will do it's part cheerfully, ener-
geticaly, promptly enthusiast
cally and successfully.

Why The South Should Be The;
Real Corn Belt.

The scientists tell US it takes
a certain number of heat units
to produce a corn crop. This
means that corn does its best in
a warm climate. Of course, a
liberal amount of moisture and
a rich soil, we'll filled with Or
ganic matter or humus. are
also needed. In short, there are
about four important factors
which go to make up suitable
conditions for the growing Of
maximum corn crops:
l. Warm weather, including
a moderately high temperature
both day and night.
2, A compare lively long
season Of warm weather, or a
long growing period.
8. Abundant moisture main
tanned without too great varia-
tions. An excess sef moisture
and drouth are equally antagon
site to large corn yields.
4. A deep, loose, fertile soil,
we'll filled with decaying organic
matter or humus.
It will be seen that three of
these four essentials of a corn
country are naturally ours The
fourth alone is lacking, but by
no means impossible OF
: attainment. The experiences
of recent years have opened the
eyes Of Southern farmers as tc
the possibilities of corn growing
and the rapid increase in ou1
; average production per acre is
the result. A few years more
: of this work of the Boys Corr
Clubs, will, sure enough, put
; the South in the Corn Belt. -

The Governors Message.

The first general message by
Gov. Blease to a South Carolina
legislature was sent in and read
in both houses the first day Of
the session. It was not al un-
usually long document, nor was
it a very brilliant one. AS a
state paper it was disappointing,
for many subjects of great im-
portance to the people and tax
payers was not touched upon at
all. It had the style Of political
argument rather than a lucid
statement of affairs and condi-
tions affecting the public wei
fare. It leaves the impression
that the governor is using his
executive functions to make a
political speech. The first rec
ommendation he makes is to
abolish the office of bank .ex-
aminer. To do so would not
save to the taxpayers a single
cent, for the salary and expenses
of this officer is paid by the
banks, and is a great protection
to people who have stock or de-
posits in banks.
The bureau of Agriculture is
also on the list to be abolished.s 4
He would destroy, the office
which looks more after the
interest of the farmers of the
State than any other to get rid
of the officer. The office of
State Geoglogist and Game
Warden are likewise stated for
the knife.
He charges extravaganza in
Of the state Institutions
which is doubtless true. His
statement that Our higher
state institutions of learning are
receiving entirely too much
has many evidences to
sustain it, especially when the
amount expended for higher
education is compared to the
amount spent in the common
schools.
He recommends a two cent
fare on all railroads, and an
electric chain. in the penitentiarY
for the execution of the death
penalty.
These are among the most
of the subjects COW
cred by the message. The great
er part, however, is taken up.in
statements and arguments of
the economy of his administra-
ton.
