A STRONG PROTEST.
itizens of Newberry Do Not Approve
Action Trustees in NotElecting
Mrs. Fair.
Below is an expression of apprecia
tion of the services of Mrs. W. Y. Fair
as a teacher in the Newberry schools
coupled with a protest against the ac
tion of the board in refusing to con
tinue her in a position in the schools
next session. It was next to impossi
ble to see all the people, but of those
to whom this paper was presented
only a very, very few refused to sign
it.
This is one subject upon which the
sentiment of the whole' community
seems to be practically unanimQus.
To the Trustees of the Newberry
Graded School.
Gentlemen: For about twenty-five
years Mrs. W. Y. Fair has taught in
the schools of our town, and, since its
organization, about twenty years ago,
has taught the primary grades of our
graded school.
During all these years her work has
been of exceptional quality. As a dis
ciplinarian of primary grades, she has
few, if any, superiors; as an instruc
tor, her efficiency and thoroughness
are known, valued, and acknowledged
by the hundreds of pupils she has
taught, and by the parents of the chil-i
dren now under her instruction. The
influence of her high character and
ideals, her culture and refinement, her
lofty Christian womanhood and noble
life, is an asset too valuable for the
children of Newberry to lose.
Teaching has been fier life work.
Her interest in the boys and girls of
our community is now, and always
has been, vital and unflagging, and to
day the effectiveness of her teaching
and the influence of her personality
are as potent as ever in training the
minds and forming the characters of
the children of Newberry.
Therefore, gentlemen, we, patrons,
former pupils -and, the others inter
ested as we are in the education of the
children of our town, and thereby, in
the success of our public school, wish
to protest against your recent action,
wherely, you refused to reelect Mrs.
Fair as a teacher for the next year in
our. graded school.

Womra's Home Mission Society.
The tjiird district meeting of the
Woman's Home Mission society was
held '' the Methodist churchl at
Gree wood, S. C., May 13-15. The
eahng noned Friday eveningr with
devotional exercises by the pastor,
Rev.- J. W. Kilgo, who also made the
welcome address to the conference,
dwelling upon the magnitude and im
portance of the work of home mis
sions.
Mrs. J. W. White, the district sec
retary, made the response, urging up
on all greater spirtuality and conse
cration in the work. Rev. M .L. Banks,
of Central church, made the address
of the evening, outlining the origin,
ideas and accomplishments of the
home mission work.
Saturday morning after the devo
tional by Rev. M. L. Banks, Mrs. W.
L Wait, the conference president,
called the conference to order. After
organization and the appointment of
committees, reports from auxiliaries
were read. From 11 to 1 o'clock was
taken up with the "Preacher's Hour,'
conducted by the presiding elder, Rev.
J. C. Roper, subject. "Prayer and
Missions," followed by Rev. F. G.
Whitlock on "Tithing;" Rev. J. W.
Kilgore, on "How Does the Woman's
Home Mission Society Help the Pas
tor?" And W. C. Kelly, "Our Dea
coness Work." He made it very plain
that the deaconess and city mission
aries are an invaluable aid to the
pastor in a mill town, city or rural
charge.
The afternoon session was taken
up with reading of reports and the
reading of several valuable papers in
home mission work followed, by a
general discussion of each. A me
morial to the laymen's movement tc
help provide funds for maintenance
of deaconesses ;n Cokesbury district
was resented by Mrs. J. W. Kilgore,
and passed by the conference. A very
suggestive paper on "The Mill in My
Town," by Mrs. C. A. Deadwyler.

work was read by the district secrc
tary, showing much progress having
been made in the disritict during thE
year. Twelve au't aaxiliaries ad
four brigades had t-cir o: gaurzed.
The crowning f,%t-ire ot the meti
ing, the ~one item oa Ite p 7.graul

three weeks, invit 0J the home mis

greatly strengthened by reason of itE
being held.

THOUSANDS IN RESTITUTION.

HALLEY'S COMET FOOLED 'EM.
Delayed Passage Thought to Have
Occurred Thursday Night.
Yerkes Observatory, Williams Bay,
Wis., May 19.-Following close upon
the wholly unexpected astronomical
condition that prevailed early this
morning, when the- tail of Halley's
comet was plainly seen in the East,
astronomers at the Yerkes Observa
tory here today were further bewild
ered by a startling apparition across
the face of the sun at noon time.
A broad spectrum of light, extend
ing across and a considerable distance
to each side of the sun, challenged the
attention of the vigilant, though
weary observers. For the second time
in a dozen hours the little band of
scientists here were aroused to a point
of much excitement. Prof. E. B. Frost,
who first sighted the phenomena, de
clared he had never before witnessed
its like.
Prof. E. E. Barnard said the same.
Hoping to secure an accurate check
on the strange spectrum, Prof. Frost
at once telephoned to observers with
in a radius 6f -100 miles of Williams
Bay, calling attention to the peculiar
ity of the occurrence. The apparition
continued for less than half an hour.
The spectrum at once became a
topic for overmastering interest and
conjecture.. Enormous sun spots seen
Wednesday afternoon, followed by
brilliant displays of aurora lights at
night, and these in turn succeeded by
varied reports of fiery streamers
shooting across the horizon to' the
southwest, had been passed by the
astronomers as having absolutely no
direct connection with the comet. But
the spectrum became another story.
"Although I, can not advance an
opinion at this time," said Prof. Frost,
"I can see no other cause but the com
I et for the appearance of the spec
trum."
He seems to feel that the two ars
related in some unexplained manner.
The passage of the tail of the com
et, delayed a day in its schedule, is
believed to be taking place tonight,
although early observations did not
give positive proof of this condition.
Why He Went to Argentine.
President Taft has at last found
some one willing to sail away to Ar
gentine as the envoy from the United
States to President Alcorda( on the
occasion of the centenary of the Ar
gentine republic's movement for inde
pendence. This is the mission which
the president offered to several dis
tinguished statesmen, - including For
mer Vice President Fairbanks. For
one reason or another they all de
clined.
Then the president notified Gen.
Wood that the' honor would be con
ferred upon him./
"Will he accept?" the president was
asked.
"Well, I guess he will," replied jthe
president emphatically and with a
twinkle in his eye. "There is some
advantage In being president of the
United States when you want an army
officer to do something."--Philadel.
phia Record.
An UTp-to-date Champion.'
"He's a champion, Is he? He doesn't
look it. Chainpion of what?"
"You don't keep abreast of the
times. He's ' the champion cigaroot
smoker; lights one with the stump
of another, Tolls them himself as he
goes along, and smokes 60 without
