None OF those who were associated
Tor any length OF time with Charles
A. Dana. for thirty years the great
personal force of tho New York Sun,
failed TO observe that he was a man
of most intense loyalty and devotion
in his friendships. With him a friend
meant not merely a companionable
person. n to be greeted with cor
diality or 20 hold pleasant converse
.tions with, but he was one whom Mr..
Dana gripped and held in the ever
.asting bonds OF confidence and real
affection.
or course there was the reverse
quality. and Mr.. Dana did not try
70 conceal his antipathies. Some OF
these were as intense as were his
friendly associations. No one was
permitted to speak I'll or even trifing-
ly Of n friend OF Mr.. Dana without
learning that the great editor was
sure TO come stoutly 70 the defense
of that friend. lie understood human
nature well enough 10 know that
everyone has weaknesses. and the
weaknesses OF his friends were known
10 him and often regretted. They.
however, were v made the occa-
sion OF any break in his relations.
This stsunchness of friendship, as
well as the intensity OF his personal
autagonisms. explained much which
to the public which read his news
paper seemed inexplicable. @
! was riding with Mr.. Dana in
Washington one morning. the late
William VI. Laffan. who succeeded
him in the ownership Of the Sun. be-
ing also OF the party. Mr.. Dana in
structed the cabman TO drive slowly.
and ! observed that this was done
so that he might have opportunity
70 detct in the throng n the side
walk OF Pennsylvania avenue some
personal friends. or at least might
see in that throng some recognizable
person.
Suddenly he said: Tell the driver
20 whip up the horses"
The horses started az n lively pace.
and as they did 80 Mr.. Dana held his
newspaper 60 that II shielded his
face.
\ few moments later he looked ont
furtivelv toward tho sidewalk and
then said. Il saw So-and-Sc men
fleming the raue Of q prominent sen
3 atlr. Il ala rot want him 10 see me.
lie would have hailed the cab and
insisted on holding conversation with
me. lie wrCld have smiled the smile

mo IN his heart. He Is n charlatan.

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
Charles A. Dana and the Government suv.
By E. J. Edwards


He would stick a dagger IN you while

Mr.. Laian said: Why. that sena-
tor has a national reputation. He is
thought TO be not only great man.
but a good one"
d such shadows regulations are
often made" Mr.. Dana returned.
A few moments later Mr.. Dana sud
denly cried out: Stop the carriage.

AS the carriage drew to the curb
Mr.. Dana leaped from II, and with
both hands outstretched called a man

ings. As the two men stood there
chatting Mr.. Laffan took heed Of the
personal appearance OF the stranger.
We noticed that no seemed TO be
somewhat poverty stricken. His EAR
ments reflected z and constant use.
He wore a rather rustic frock coat.
Ills waistcoat was buttoned awry.
Films Of tobacco juice stuck 20 the
corners OF his lips: but OF these things
Mr.. Dana took no heed. The two men

teen minutes.
J AS Mr.. Dana re-entered the car

10 his friend. and then said:
Il have not seen that man since ]
lived in Washington as Assistant Sec.
rotary of War He wns OF immense
service 20 NE then: he risked his life
more than once. for he was a gov,
eminent spy. He brought back 10 us
from inside the Confederate lines
valuable information. I have never
forgotten him. lie seemed 10 me
somewhat hard up. and he Is getting

inquiries about him. for he would tel
me little about himself. He is toe
proud. Perhaps I "a find a way &c

The pleasure OF that meeting with
The old friend completely bridged the
almost immeasurabie gulf between
tho distinguished Senator and the
man who was hanging upon tho
frirces of humble Washington life
Ard that was characteristic OF Mr.
Dana's friendships.

CITY'S SCHOOLS
GET INCREASED
APPROPRIATION
LIKE SCHOOLS OF COUNTY
Americas and Sumter to
Receive $27,gI8

Americas city schools and the public
schools Of the county have Jared wen
in the apportionment Of the state
school fund for the next year. The
Americas schools will receive $7,588.9S
from the state, while Sumters schools
will receive $40, 1892, a total of $27.-
1890 for town and county which will
be available for school purposes IN
1914.
The state educational department
has completed the work of apportion-
ing the state school fund of $2,550,010
for next year and the year following
among the 148 counties and the so To-
cal Or town school systems receiving
state aid.
This aportionment will not vary ma
terially for the next five years, with
out increases in the appropriations
This apportionment is made under
the new school census and the per
capita now is $317 as against 1914 for
the fire years previous. This decrease
in the per capita per pupil is due to the
increase in the number of children Of
school age. This increase is approx
imately 10000 making the amount per
pupil smaller.
Americas, with a school attendance
of 1894, will receive $7,5S8.9S, as stat
ed. To this will be added the very
large appropriation made by the city
annually for the maintenance of the
schools, the aggregate sum being about
$4,000.
