Columbia.-Attorney General LyoR
said that he had not been requested
to bring action against those charged
with graft in connection with the
Charleston whiskey situation. It is

Boy Hurt When Fountain ExpIodes.
Rock Hill.-While MAJ Bryant, Jr.,
was charging a soda fountain at the
Sims Drug Company he detected that
something was working wrong and
proceeded to make a dash for the
door. He hollered at a negro boy who
was assisting him to get away, but
the boy was not quick enough and the
tank exploded tearing it all to pieces.
The negro vas of course badly fright
ened and was seriously cut in several
places but after being treated seemed
to be not much the worse for his ex-
perience.

Columbia. - The registration OF
teachers who have entered upon study
at the summer school at the Univer.
sity of South Carolina has reached 43.
Each day has witnessed an increase
in the enrolment, and the half hun
dred expected by Superintendent
Clarkson will doubtless enter in the
near future. Most of the teachers TAX
ing the course are women, but three
men are in attendance. This Is not
the least interesting fact in connec-
ton with the school, and much inter-
est has been displayed in the work.

LOVES YOUNG DREAM.

O, the days are gone when beauty
bright
NV hearts chain wore;
When my dream of life, from morn
till night,
Was love, still love.
New hope may bloom,
And days may come,
OF miIder, calmer beam,
But there's nothing half so swee in
life
AS loves young dream;
No, there's nothing half SO sweet
in life
AS loves young dream.
Though the bard to purer fame may
soar,
When wild youths past;
Though he win the wise, who
frowned before.
To smile at last;
He'll never meet
A Joy so sweet,
In all his noon of fame
AS when first he sung to woman's
His soul felt flame,
And, at every close, she blush'd to
hear
The one lov'd name.

s.,.. of Direction In Bees.

The directive sense possessed by bees
is the object Of research made by NJ.
CASTOR BONNER of Paris. and he seems
to have proved that bees possess n
special sense like carrier pigeons Ex-
periments showed that bees can fly
two miles to their hives even when
deprived of the organs Of sight and
smell. Many scientists and among
others Dadent have always declared
that bees are guided by the sense OF
smell and that they can smell flowers
at one and half miles. Bonnier's ex-
periments proved that bees detect
odors at only short distances.
