The Burned Child.

Minnie Belle, the little nine-year-
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Thos.
C. Banks, who was so dreadfully
burned on the third instant, continues
in critical condition, as the flames
burned deep into her flesh, the burns
extending from both knees all over
her body, making her heart-rending
and pitiable object. The little suf-
ferer holds her own, but the awful
accident has made her life all but
despaired of, and if she should recov-
er it will be one of the most remark
able cases on record. We can only
hope for her recovery while feeling
deeply for the parents in their great
anxiety for the we'll being of their
little girl.
Later.-Since the above was writ
ten the gratifying news is that the
child, rested well Wednesday night
and is somewhat improved. 1t is
prayerfully to be hoped that her re-
covery is assured.

of the overruling of divine provi-
dence, and that while we might not in
our finite minds understand the
mystery of it all, yeti in some un-
known way His dispensations were
for the good of His creatures.
Sam Derrick was good citizen and
delighted in service for others. He
was at all times pleasant and genial
and kindly and seemed always ready
and willing to do what he could to
help his fellowman. And after all
that may be said that is the best and
most successful life which is the full

To the widow and the others of his
Immediate family The Herald and
News extends its sympathy and
mourns with them in the loss of a
good and true and tried friend. We
cannot understand the workings Of a
Divine Providence, and it is well fo1
us that we can not, but if we believe
what we profess then we must believe
that when He chasteneth it is in love
for his creatures and for our good.

the student army raining corps, a
war measure at the college last ses-
sion, created a distaste for military
discipline. Then too on account of
labor and transportation troubles and
high costs, the cadetmess has not been
as good as heretofore. The whole
matter will be referred to the board
of trustees, and meanwhile the college
will proceed with the work of the stu
dents who remain at the institution.
Since this is military college, any
matters in controversy will no doubt
be passed upon in light of these laws
and regulations. The college author
tiles of course greatly regret the stu
dent action, knowing that under stress
of excitement many students felt
compelled to follow their classmates,
rather than be governed by their own
judgment. However, the disciplinary
authorities at the college have no op-
ton in the matter but to proceed
along the lines of the regulations, and
this will be done.
Following are the members of the
disciplinary committee: President

REPUBLICANS IN HOLE
President Puts Treaty Question Right
Up to Them.

The State.
Washington, March 10.-President
Wilson "passed the buck" to the Re-
publican members of the senate in
such a shape that when the latter to-
day had an opportunity to accept the
eague of nations with the compromise
plan included they fatty refused to
do so. This shows, in the opinion OF
some of the Democratic leaders who
have been standing squarely behind
the president that the Republicans
have been blufing and that the for
mer have called their bluff. The presi-
dent now has the Republicans IN
hole. They refuse to ratify the treaty
as he wishes it, and likewise decline
t odo SO with various reservations as
proposed by mild reservation"
Democrats. Just what their next
step will be is problem.

TIE TNe of An Auto.

Recorder B. V. Chapman had be-
fore him at court Tuesday case
that showed the way of man with
a maid in an automobile, and in
these days of so many autos and men
and maids some people like to get
hold of a tale of this kind. Thomas
<Childs, colored, paid a nominal fine
of SO for injuring the property Of
another. And thereby hangs this
tale. The injured property belong
ed to DR.. W. G. Mayes, who had OF
fered to sell it to Childs for 5000, as
it was well-worn machine. The
trade had not been closed, but maybe
Childs thought to buy the car and
supposed he was in his rights by try
ing it out, without the consent or
knowledge of the owner. At any
rate he got the machine and took a
woman to ride. In some way or other
there was wreck in good-slzed
,ditch, the car plunging headiong into
the ditch, b,eaking the front wheels,
smashing the Windshield and severely
i7iuring the drivers Joy mate. DR..
Maves still owning the injured prop
ertv. the case for damages resulted as
above stated. The fine was paid and
everything settled by the car being
sold to Childs, the pay to be on the
;nstallment plan through Alderman
r. D. Whitaker. for whom the new
purchaser works.

Miss Estelle Dominick.

No death has saddened the st.
Lukes community more than that Of
Miss Estelle Dominick on March 9th,
after an illness Of only one week. She
was teaching at Clinton when she
caught influenza and came home.
Pneumonia developed and caused her
death, in spite of all the watchful
care and skillful treatment of the de-
voted family and untiring physician.
She leaves a mother, Mrs. Abbie Les
ter Doninick, four brothers, Clarence
Doninick of Plains, Ca, William
,Dominick of Pittsfeld, Mass, Esmond
Dominick of Richmond, Va, and
Haskell Dominick Of Prosperity, and
one sister, Mrs. Arley Bedenbaugh of
Prosperity.
At an early age her education was
begun in the community schools,
from which she went to Columbia
College and graduated in 1912. Since
that time she has been engaged in
teaching in the schools Of Monticello,
Big Creek, Saluda and Clinton. She
had earned an enviable reputation
for herself in her profession-always
in her place. It will not be an easy
task to find one so faithful to duty,
so loyal to her work and so conse-
Grated to the cause Of bettering the
world about her.
It is not, however, in the school
that her loss will be most. keenly felt,
but in the home circle. The widowed
mother, the brothers and the only Sis
ter had learned to look to her for
stability, guidance, loving counsel and
general helpfulness. Her life among
those who knew her best had taught
them her infinite worth in all the
virtues Of beautiful womanhood. The
loveliness of her character will help
in a wonderful measure to sweeten
their grief.
The church, too, will miss her
greatly. She was always active in
the work at ST. Luke's, being usually
placed in the front in any movement
that called for responsibility, firm
ness of purpose and strong endeavor.
Never was she found wanting in de-
votion to her Masters cause.
The community life also will feel
the loss of her influence. Her quiet
demeanor, unassuming dignity and
>gentleness of manner were like
leaven in the social circle in which
she moved. When one was in dis
tress she gave Of her time, her
strength, her service; and many
crooked paths were Strengthened and
rugged places made smooth by her
ministry. Surely great is her Ee-
ward. A Friend.

Samuel w. Derrick.

The last time we saw Samuel W.
Derrick he was the picture of robust
health. 5He was in the Office of the
supervisor of the census having come
in response to request from the
supervisor to make few corrections
in the papers for the census OF the
district of which he was the
enumerator. He was told the correc-
tions could be made in the office. but
he decided that he would take the
sheets home with him and make the
corrections at his home. He never
came back. Soon after he was taken
sick and the end came on Tuesday
morning about 2 O'Clock. He agreed
to take the census Of the district at
the urgent request of the supervisor,
and we are glad that his illness can
not be traced to this work as it was
completed several weeks before he
was taken sick.
Mr.. Derrick was desperately i'll for
about two weeks lingering between
life and death. One report would be
that he was very i'll, and then would
come the good news that he had ral-
lied and was much better. He had
pneumonia following influenza.
He was a native of Lexington coun-
ty near the Delmar section. His
married, life and his manhood life had
all been spent in Newberry where he
married. He is survived by his widow
who before her marriage was Miss
Mamie Folk the youngest daughter OF
the late Captain H. H. Folk, one little
girl Katherine and one adopted son,
and two brothers, Hon. Sidney Der
rick and Mr.. Jesse Derrick both OF
Leesville.
The funeral service was held at
Beth Eden Lutheran church of which
he was a member and an officer on
Wednesday at II o'clock and was
largely attended. The service was
conducted by the Rev. L. P. Boland,
his pastor, assisted by Rev. Enoeh
Ei::te ard Rev. Dr.. J. W. Carson. The
following acted as pallbearers: NJ. E.
Caldwell, J. T. Mayes, H. NJ. Bryson,
J. Y. McFall, W. E. Elmore, T. II.
Caldwell, B. H. Caldwell and B. H.
Wilson.
Rev. Mr.. Boland paid high tribute
to the character and worth of Mr..
Derrick as man and citizen and
church member. He was not only a
good citizen but Christian gentle
man, said bis pastor, and his place
will be difficult to fill. No one ever
vent to him for help of any kind that
was worthy and went away empty
handed. His life was filed. with good
works and he leaves a good1y heritage
TO his family.
And DR.. Carson made one Of the
most appropriate and comforting and
earnest and "imple and touching and
eloquent in its simplicity, prayers that
we have ever heard fall from human
lips. In its every word it breathed
