Estonol had been sentenced to death by the Huerta courts, having been charged with sedition and the charge d'affaires interested himself by smuggling Esto- mol on the train to Vera Cruz, per
 sonally accompanying him to the
 coast, placing him aboard one of the i small tenders of the battlesh'p fleet in the harbor and when the mer- 1 chant vessel was outside of the three mile limit, and under international law free from arrest by Mexican of 1 fcers, the former cabinet officer was l transferred to the vessel bound to Havana
 What action President Huerta will
 take in the matter is not known.
 Some predict that the American rep
 resentative will be given his pass ports; others that Huerta will not
 notice the matter and will wait until 1 peace is established before calling to 1 account the American government for | the gross indiscretion of it's diplomat ic representative.

Since our opening September 2l
our numbers have steadily increased.
New pupils are being admitted al
mitted almost every day, until our
enrolment has reached 235.
Our school-house has been under
going a much-needed overhauling
and now we have new desks Wher.
ever needed and windows and doors
in good condition to withstand the
cold, which will soon be upon US.
Miss Brockington went to Colum-
bia last week to attend the Fair.
Miss McLees was in charge of her
classes during her absence.
Our school sent very creditable
exhibit of drawing and manual
training work to the State Fair.
Last May, just before school closed,
Mr. H O Britton presented US with a
State flag. This was hoisted last
Saturday for the first time, and now,
during school hours, the beautiful
flag of our dear old Palmetto State
can be seen floating gracefully above
our building. Mr. Britton has always
been kind and loyal friend to our
school, and we thank him most sim
cerely for this latest evidence Of his
friendship.
