CARING FOR A "STlsANGER.
Mite of Humanity Left on Door Step
of Florence Couple.

Florence, February l4.-Some
time during last night some heartless
person left on the door step OF Mr..
Fred Koopman's home, in East Pine
street. a two-weeks' old bouncing
baby boy. The person who lett the
child rang the bell about 10 o'clock
during a rain storm and then scamp
cred away. The child was nicely
dressed, and a note accompanied It,
with Sc in money for it's care. Mr..
and Mrs. Koopman have the little
stranger and will care for it until
the mother scan be found, or some
other action taken in the matter. 1t
is reported that a similar find was
made at the home of another East
Pine street home, but this has not
been confirmed.
This is the third affair of this kind
that has taken place in Florence with
in the last three months, the first be-
ing at the home of Mr.. Bell in the
Eastern suburbs.

The testimony so far in the asylum
investigation shows, to our mind, that
the governor wants to get rid of DR..
Babcock, and is trying to obtain this
result by getting the lady physician
out first, as it has been stated that
DR.. Babcock would not remain as
superintendent unless this lady ply
sician was retained. So far the in
vestigation has developed absolutely
nothing against this lady physician,
but on the contrary, even the testi-
mony of those opposed to her has
been entirely in her favor. 1t ap-
pears that this woman is largely the
brains of the institution-a self-sac'
rificing Christian character who has
given her best service to the poor
unfortunates. Shame on those who
would attempt to besmirch her char
acter!

We knock and criticise her,
We scold, apostrophize her,
We wish that she were wiser,
More capable and kind.
Her path we're always stalking
10 criticise her talking,
Her clothes, her ways of walking
Her manners and her mind.
We say, oh, highty-tighty!'
She's frivolous and tightly.
And all her ways are mighty
Undignitied to see;
She dances and she chatters,
Our golden rule she skaters
And laughs at serious matters
With unabated glee!'
We chide-and we correct her.
We shadow and detect her.
We study and dissect her.
With all her smiles and tears.
And find, on looking Ger her,

She's just like girls before her,

Winter School for the Unemployed

kenosha. Wis.,, has opened free
winter school for the unemployed.
This enterprising little city shares
with others the problem presented by
groups of idle men and boys who
drift aimlessly and abjectly until the
spring time. 1t appears to be the
first to add a haven for the mind
to the customary soup kitchen and
bread line.
A school building has been set
aside for the idlers, most of whom
are worthy but uneducated and with
out even regular trade. They are
taught reading, writing and arithme-
tic, bookkeeping, stenography and
other branches of commercial and
industrial service. The majority OF
the unemployed men and boys OF
Kenosha have enrolled and two of
the pupils walked from another town
to take advantage of kenosha's gen.
erosity.
Fully 8 per cent. of the children
in America quit school to go to work
at fourteen years of age. They are
recruits for the army of idleress and
unrest, misery and anarchy which a
regime of closing factories and re-
duced output recruits for this coun-
try every winter. These men and
boys are just as ignorant and Tin
equipped at the beginning of new
winter as they were at the close OF
the previous winters and conse
ouently the sociological effort OF
Kenosha will be viewed with sym
pathetic interest.

The report of State Bank Examin-
er B. J. Rhame, recently issued, shows
that the combined statements of the
seven banks in Bamberg county, &C.
cording to the statements made Oc-
tober 21, 1918, amounted to s1,27S,-
30Q.3O. In Barnwell county at the

covering much larger territory, and
the combined statements of these
nine amounted to only S799,916.76.
These figures conclusiyely prove tina:
there is no more prosperous. county

A TRUNK MYSTERY.
Sleuths Suspected Case of Foul
Play.

! Chaleston. Feb. 13.-The local
police we're certain they had scented
| mysterious case of crime when
! Chief Cantwell received telegram
urgently requesting him to meet a
train from Florida without fail as the
! baggage officials had strong reasons
for believing that trunk that was
aboard Contained a victim. They
wanted to make sure, however. ana
before any investigation was made.
desired that the local police meet the
train on it's arrival here and give Of
fetal sanction to the trunk being
opened.
Health Officer Present.
Accordingly, Chief Cantwelh arose
early and aroused several detectives
and other officers of the department,
and in the darkness of early Monda.
morning the squad of sleuths went to
the union station in ample time be-
fore the scheduled arrival Of the
Florida train, which was shortly be-
fore 6 o'clock. Further evidence Of
the extent of precaution was FURNISH
ed when DR.. J. NJ. Green, head of the
city health department, reached the
station, for this official had been ad-
vised of the nature of the case con-
fronting the police.
Upon the arrival of the train, the
baggage men hurriedly told Of their
knowledge of the trunk consigned to
their care. The suspected luggage
had been sent from Miami, but it was
not until Jacksonville was passed
that it had attracted any special at
tention to itself. From this point
suspicion was borne more and more
strongly upon the train crew, and
then physician was brought into {.
sufficient radius of the trunk, and at
once confirmed the opinion that pre-
vailed, that there was dead body
within it. 1t was then that the local
police were informed of the situa-
ton.
The Trunk Mystery.
When the police approached the
mysterious box, which bore the ad-
dress, Washington, Indiana they
deemed that the situation demanded
action by the health officer and that
their services would later be needed
in ferre6ing out the foul play despite
the interval that must have elapsed
since it's perpetration. DR.. Gree1,
however, at once. connected the affair
with the sea, which led the detectives
to think of a stealthy murder on a
lonely beach. But the health officer,
who is an experienced angler, went
en- to explain that certain flshy odor
was the basis of his belief. Having
this opinion to rely on, he was some
what less excited that the others when
Chief Cantwell gave the order to
raise the lid and let the gruesome
details be revealed.
The Contents.
Having thrown the doors of the car
open wide, the interior of the trunk
was laid bare and a most interesting
sight to the naturalist was revealed,
for valuable collection of Florida
sponges and conchs in Indifferent
stages of preservation, were exhibit
ed. DR.! Green's former experiences
with the life of the sea had served
him in good stead. and his subtle
conjecture had proved correct. Ihe
police gladly returned to their rou-
tine duties, and the trunk and con-
tents were sent on to Washington
Indiana, over the united protest or
the baggage officials.

eff l could take only one paper,
"said the late Mr.. Justice Brewer of
the Supreme Court, ut would be The
Youths Companion-a little of every
thing in a nutshell, and unblasted."
The Companion is a family paper in
the completest sense. 1t provides
reading that, without failing to in
terest the young still interests the
mature. 1t unites young and old
through their common enjoyment of
delightful fiction, agreeable miscel-
lany, and the clear exposition of pub
lie questions.
So carefully is it edited, so varied
are it's contents, that it would easily
supply a family with entertaining
fiction, up-to-date information and
wholesome fun, if no other periodical
enters the house..

THE FALL PRAIRIE FIRES
DESTROY MUCH PROPERTY

Great precaution should be taken
in regard to prairie fires, especially
at this time of the year. People are
becoming a little lax as has been
shown by the number Of fires that
have been raging in this part of the
state. A week ago Saturday a fire
started about Is miles west of Fay
cite, and with a northwest wind bore
down passed Fayette and was only
stopped nea Manning, having cleared
a strip of country for many miles. A
large amount of damage was done
and a number of lives would have
been lost had it not been for the
quick response of the neighbors as
we'll as those living at a distance.
F. Carter of Snow had a heavy
loss. He was in Dickinson at the
time after SUPPLIES and Mrs. Carter
was alone at the farm. The heavy
wind brought the fire right to the
farm before she had a chance to do
anything to stop it. Neighbors and
friends arrived soon but despite
their efforts they were only able to
save the house. The barn, sheds and
hay stacks were entirely destroyed as
we'll as the animals in the barn. Jim
Smith, nearly exhausted, was picked
up in the path of the fire. Many
farmers had heavy losses.
Other fires were raging southeast
of the city Sunday and Monday. An
other fire was noticed in the country
north on Tuesday. There is always
a cause for these fires, and a little
precaution might save great losses
and a great deal of suffering.

EPWORTH LEAGUE BANQUET

A fine banquet was served in the
parlors of the Methodist church Fri
day evening by the married people of
the Epworth League. The society
some time ago pledged a certain
amount and divided itself into three
bodies, each group to raise a third
boys, the girls and the married
people. The large banquet room was
decorated in black and yellow, with
pumpkins and other Halloween emb-
lens on the long tables. The various
courses were served by the grown
ups, who had full charge of the af-
fair.
At the end of the feast, master of
ceremonies, J. Edward Tuft, took
charge Of the program. F. E. Deit-
ers, known to be able to speak on
short notice, was called upon to speak
extemporaneously.. Miss Bessie
johnson was then called upon to
give a reading which dealt with the
comic phases and phrases of base
ball. Mrs. R. T. Crawford answered
to the toast "Old Fashion Cooking
Versus New Tangled Domestic Sci
ence." Gray's Elegy locally applied,
was a parody written and delivered
by Mr.. Tuft. J. H. Gibson, noted for
his literary ability and witty tongue,
was called upon on for an extempor-
aneous address. A poem, Equity
and Suffrage" written by J. H. Glib
son, and read by Mrs. J. E. Freeman,
was enthusiastically received. In a
very pleasing manner A. A. Harle-
