State Uniform Text Books.

The last session of the legislature passed law requiring the same books to be used in all public schools of the state. For several years we have had county uni formity, which was better than dis trict uniformity, or each school using such books as it pleased. State uniformity is better than either county or district uniformity and it was a natural and neces- .sary step that our public school system should have taken years ago to adopt uniform text books in all the schools of the common wealth.
 The act creating uniform text books for the schools also provided a text book commission to select tho books to be used in the public schools. This commission has just completed it's labors and adopted a series of text books that are to be used in all the public schools of the state. They are to be put into the schools as soon as possible. Counties under unexpired contracts for text books, and special districts having their own books under the former law. are permitted to com plete their contracts, and then the i uniform adopted books must be put into all public schools, whether common or special.
 Under tho contract of adoption with publication houses, the peo- pie have eighteen months in which to exchange the old books for the new, and fifty per cent rate of exchange is allowed. That is, an old book of the same series can be exchanged for half the price of the new book of the same kind. To be more specific, an old first reader
 will be taken up at half the price of the new reader, whether first
 second, third or fourth. And an old
 four reader will be accepted for only half the price of a new first
 reader, or a second, or a third or a fourth reader

NEGROES KILLED.
Four Meet Death From Lightning
Seven Others Hurt.

Columbia, Sept. 22.-Four negroes
were killed and seven stunned during
a terrific electric storm at Camp Jack
son yesterday afternoon. Coroner
Scott said last night no inquest would
be necessary.
All were carpenters. They were
working close to the camp quarter
master corps and an electric storm
came up and they went in one room
house, with the front entirely out.
There was a tin roof on it. In all
there is said to have been 20 men
in the room seeking shelter from the
storm. How the lightning did its
work no one appears to have any
idea. Four were killed outright,
while seven who were stunned were
taken to a hospital for treatment.
The others were not hurt.
Those killed were knocked fiat
upon their backs with no indication
of having been burned or scorched.
The seven that were stunned were
taken to one of the camps hospitals
and given treatment, to which they
repidly responded. The dead negroes
were brought to Columbia.

BRITISH LINE HOLDS TIGHT.
Teutons Unable to Gust Halgs
Forces.-Victory Complete.

London, Sept. 21.-The number OF
German prisoners taken by the Brit
ish in Yesterdays fighting on the
Belgian front now exceeds 5000, &C
cording to the British war office
statement tonight The British yes
terday repulsed several strong count
er-attacks, infficting exceptionally
heavy losses.
Field Marshal Haig in later re-
ports regarding the British offensive
on the Belgian front to the east OF
Ypres yesterday when the British
troops pushed through the German
lines for a distance of more than a
mile, says that the completeness OF
the British successes is confirmed by
detailed accounts of the battle.
The British war office, after the re-
ceipt of Field Marshal Haig's report
today issued this bulletin.
Official Bulletin.
"More detailed accounts of yester-
days battle confirm the completeness
of our success. During the evening
local attacks delivered by us in the
neighborhood of Tower Hamlets and
northeast of Langemarck cleared up
s. number of strong points and COM
pleted the capture of our objectlves
in these localities. 1t is now estao-
lished that in the many counter at
tacks delivered by considerable fore
es of the enemy during the afternoon
and evening his casualties were un-
usually great.
'.The clear light of the latter part
of the day enabled our troops to OBJ
tain warning of impending attacks
and in every case the advancing lines
of German infantry were destroyed
by the concentrated fire from our
rifles and machine guns and artillery.
Obstinate Counter-Attacks
The obstinacy with which the en-
emy constantly repeated his attacks
only added to his losses without re-
covering for him any of the valuable
ground which we had won. Exhaust
ed by his previous efforts the e'enemy
made no counter-attacks during the
night and our troops were able to
consolidate the positions undisturbed.
"Our own losses in the battle are
light.
sIn the course of the night small
hostile attacks we're driven off west
of Harrincourt and west of Lens"

ENGINEER WAS
NEARLY HELPLESS
Had rheumatism so Bad COULDN'T t
Put on Shoes-VitOna Ends
His Troubles.

Greenville, S. c., is the home of
one of the happiest men in the State
today, and Captain c. c. Blackman is
now telling his many friends it is all
due to the recovery of his health by
the use of the marvellous new medi-
cine, Vitona. Captain Blackman, who
resides at $40 Washington street, is
locomotive engineer, runs fast pas
senger train No. SO, New York to
New Orleans Special, between Green
vile and Atlanta, and is undoubtedly
one of the best known and most pop
ular railroad men in South Carolina.
It was in a recent conversation with
j. w. Bullock and Barlow B. Henry
that Captain Blackman related his
experience with Vitona and made the
following statement, which he author
lied published for the benefit Of 9TH
ers:
when 1 learned about Vitona and
decided to try it, I had been suffer-
ing with sciatica rheumatism for five
years. At times my leaders felt like
they were tied in knots and the pain
in my hips was awful. After sitting
down for a while I couldn't get up
without help and for weeks l could
mt reach my feet to put on and take
off my shoes. l could hardly crawl
into the cab of my engine and when
did get in it was an effort for me
to work the throttle. l lost weight
and strength continually. Nothing
I would eat agreed with me and l had
terrible pains in the pit of my stom-
ach. I was so weak and crippled up
that had to hobble around on a cane
and was continually losing time from
my runs could hardly make it home.
l was so nervous and racked with
pain I could hardly sleep and l tell
you life was more of burden than
of pleasure.
"My condition seemed to be getting
worse all the time and nothing SEEM
ed to reach my case and help me un-
til 1 began taking Vitona. A few
| days use of this medicine proved to
be just what my system needed, my
leaders became plant and l could
stoop down and get about easily. It
is the only medicine that ever gave
me any relief and since taking a few
bottles l never suffer from rheuma-
tism and don't lose any more time
from my work. l can now hop into
my cab like boy and handle my old
engine as we'll as l could when | first
got my run. My appetite is fine, |
can eat anything l want and enjoy
it and have also gained fifteen pounds
in weight besides. No, sir, | have
no more use for my walking stick
now, my pain and nervousness are
gone, sleep like log and feel like
new man. Vitona is undoubtedly
the finest medicine on earth and
would go out of my way to tell suffer
| ing people about it,
I Vitona is sold in Bamberg by
Mack's Drug Store; in Denmark by
Peoples Pharmacy, and in Ehrhardt
by J. H. Roberts. Advertisement.

PLOT TO DIVIDE EAST AND WEST
Germany Responsible for Misunder'
standing With Japan.

Washington, Sept. 21.-German
intrigue and propaganda, cleverly ap-
pIied in both countries, have prevent
ed a full understanding between
America and Japan, Viscount 1shii,
head of the Japanise mission to the
United States, declared in an address
here tonight at the National Press
Club. The Zimmerman note to
Mexico involving Japan gave a clue
to the secret agencies at work to part
the East and the West, the viscount
said
s.Since then the agents have been
hard at work." the viscount continu-
ed. 'tThey were hard at work yes
terday and they are at work today.
Every prejudice, every available ar
gument has been appealed to and
used to show to your people and to
ours, what low, cunning enemy we
have each in the other and how much
dependent we are upon the future
friendship, support and good will of
Germany"
Viscount Ishii said in all coun-
tries today fraud, deception, treach-
cry and all the forces of evil are
wearing disguises most difficult to
penetrate and that he regretted deep
ly to say that owing to this difficult
ty, the newspapers in both America
and Japan, Inadvertently, he be-
ieved, had delayed the "inevitable
understanding" between the two
nations.
Simply Unthinkable.
'sTo the Japanese Government and
nation anything like armed conflict
with America is simply unthinkable, .
Viscount Ishii said.
"For more than ten years a propa-
ganda has been carried on in this
country, in Japan, and in fact
throughout the world for the one and
sole purpose of keeping nations of afr
East and far West as far apart as
possible.
"These agents have been supplied
with unlimited resources. No wonder
we have been deceived. A short time
ago a bad blunder gave US clue. The
Zimmerman note to Mexico involv'
ing Japan was blunder. 1t made
such noise that we were disturbed
in our slumbers and so were you
This gave a check for time, but
since then then the agents have
been hard at work. * =
Secret History.
LET me tell you piece Of secre
history. When it became known tt
rs that the American and British
governments were alike desirous O
entering into general treaty of ar
bitration, but that they found the
making of such a treaty was pre-
cluded by the terms of the British
alliance with Japan, as they thel
stood. it was not with the consent O
