A Clarendon county man Is re-

there some kind of law against kill

with catching sturgeon in.the Pee

SHOWING VAGARIEs OF FAME
How RublnsteIn, at the Height Of
Eminence, Refused Offer That
Meant Great Distinction.

Teresa Carreno, the eminent wom-
an pianist. indulging in "reminiscences
of her career Of fifty years before the
public, tells a story Of Tschaikowski
and Rubinstein. which, in one respect,
Is Illuminating.
Rubinstein, the great Russian mas
ter, composer and performer OF his
time, is seated in his study when
Tschaikowski arrives and humbly
asks permission to dedicate to the
great man a concerto for piano and or.
chestra. Rubinstein examines the
composition hastily; flies into ter
rible rage; shakes his leonine head
and asks the affrigbted Tschaikowskf
how he dares to offer to dedicate this
trash" to a man of such eminence.
Thereupon, Tschaikowski leaves the
house, and by chance, meeting the
conductor Won Bulow, offers him the
dedication, which is accepted. =
Observe the mutations Of time!
Rubinstein was a great musician, re-
rnarkable performer, but not a COM
poser Of the f. rank by any means.
Tschaikowski has sprung into the first
rank Of composers and Is generally re-
garded by musicians as one Of the
greatest musical geniuses Russia has
produced.
A dedication by him Of one Of his
works is in itself title to unusual dis
!inction, and will make for the per
petuation Of any ones fame. while, as
the years bring lessening OF memory
of Rubinstein's wonderful playing. his
reputation IS bound to diminish.
Thus, even the pet Of fortune and
circumstances can AFFORD to be cours
teous, for posterity often rewards cour-
tesy and properly Furnishes overween-
ing self-esteem.

Now that school has opened we
have been requested to call the at
tention of the town authorities to
the matter of reckless driving and
loose horses and mules on the
streets. All along through the day
the streets are filled with little tots
going to or coming from school,
many of whom are scarcely more
than babies and unable to take care
of themselves when threatened with
galloping horses or speeding auto
mobiles. Tuesday, we are informed {,
several small children were return =

horse attached to Il cart came dash
ing by on an interSecting street, land
barely missed running down the

driven at gallop. 1t l. well TO
take thi, matter in hand before
one or more of these little lives are

When Murray Tackles oedlpus.

SSS'P
Classical scholars have not exactly
complained. but have pointed ou,
that when Prof. Gilbert Murray trans
lates Eur1pides into English verse he
slides that dramatist over his rough
spots by doing mediocre Euripides
into gorgeous and splendid Murray.
It is better than Euripides, to be sure;
but It isn't Euripides. There will be
no difficulty Of this kind in Professor
Murray's newest task, the Oedipus
Colonus. Murray at his murrayest
will have all he can do to keep up to
the sustained elevation Of Sophocles.
But there is hardly a living hand
worthier Of the task, and JOY be the
consequence.-Boston Transcript.

At the DeIano School house Mr.. Best
preached from the text, "Why sit we here

A very interesting and instructive meet
ing was that of the Woman's Missionary
Society last Wednesday evening at the
home of Miss Nita Ellis. The program
the topic of which being the "The Chinese
Church." was in charge of Miss Ruamah
Smith and consisted of readings upon
different phases of the work. A very
interesting talk by Miss Smith, giving a
vivid illustration of the missionary work
in China and how the same is conducted
would quickly dispel and doubts one
might entertain as to whether funds con
tributed ever reached the foreign lands.
Also very pleasing feature of the meet
ing and one appreciated by all was the
music, including solo by Mrs. Best with
