The Meeting at Little Mountain Lao Wednesday-The Female College to be D Established at Once-$1,500 Sub scribed on the Spot. The meeting at Little Mountain o If Wedcesday, the 6th, for the purposf d of taking steps to establish a femah S college meant business. There wasi full and free discussion of the advisa - bility of such a movement, and it wai u decided to build the college, to be undej the management of a joint stock com pany. r A call was made for subscriptions tc a the capital stock of the company and e $1,500 was subscribed on the ground. The company was organized an4 j nine directors elected as follows: A, e N. Boland, J. H. Wise, T. W. Dreher, Rev. S. L. Nease and Dr. John M, 3 Sease of Little Mountain, Rev. 0. B. s Shearouse of Edgefield, Dr. D. L. Boozer of Columbia, Rev. J. H. Wyse of Pomaria, and Rev. J. A. Sligh ol Slighs. Dr. John M. Sease was elected presi dent of the company; J. H. Wise, secretary, and A. N. Bo!and treasurer. A standing committeee of five mem of the board, who are residents of Lit e tle Mountain, was appointed to secure plans and specifications for the build. ing, and also a euitable location. The committee is charged with the duty of getting everything in readiness, and the work will go forward at once. e The institution is to be a Lutheran college, and all the members of the board are Lutherans. Mr. A. N. Bolard acted as president of the organization meeting, and J. H, rWise was the secretary. r An admirable feature about the es tablishment of this college is that the promoters of the enterprise mean busi ness. They are not doing all talk and keeping the clasps on their purses. We hope they will be successful in e in raising the capital stock to their full limit, which is $12,000, and erect a 9 splendid building. They have a most suitable and unique location fvr a female college. e Seminarians Called. V Mr. H. W. Jeficoat has completed e the course at the Lutheran Seminary e in Newberry, and has taken charge of e two churches in North Carolina,where he received a call last week. Mr. Virgil Y.

Are we to have no candidates this J year, only for Supervisor? It begins to a look that way. We are not specially D running anybody, but we %ill venture to say, tbhe tan that beats Dr. NVerts B will get ther,. Now, Mr. Editor, Dr. Pope is in the race for our next Governor. And be . has said that be is in the race to Itay. I don't .see bow you can stay on the s fence any longer. You stated when f Dr. Pope's name was first mentioned for Governor that if he was a candi- f date you could not go back on your E own county, but you wanted to take . up the man this time that would win. I am in hopes, Mr. Editor, that you still retain tnis same idea. It is true d; that Dr. Pope has been a Reformer S ever since the Reform movement has t1 been on foot, But we must not stop to le ask ourselves which faction he belongs tt to, or what part of the faction is doing w the most damage; we must select a hi man to put in'front who can bring the d people back to that friendly feeling st which existed prior to the revolution of 1890-and we feel that Dr. Pope is NL the right man to do it. Why not old la Newberry County furnish the next si Governor of South Carolina? I know to that she has some just as good timber R as the State can afford. I am just as h< much in favor of peace and harmony fa, throughout the State as any man on at earth; but we may preach peace until y< doomsday, and we will never have it ti until the minority is willing to fall in cc line with the majority. When we a select men to fIl such honorable, re sponsible and high positions,- we should select just such men as Dr. Pope. whose heart nas always been in the upbuild ing and success of his country and ambition has always been to do the greatest good to the greatest number. Now I want to see every man put his shoulder to the wheel and roll up a solid vote from Newberry County for Dr. Pope. To the School Commissioner, Hon. Thos. W. Keitt-Dear Sir: Will y ou answer the following question :-In calling a mieting o f any school district lqr the pqrpose of levying an extra scihool tax, only freeholders of said dis trict, the law says, are allowed to sign a petition. Uinder this bead are women who are fre.eholders allowed to sign such petitions? If so, are they allowed to vote? It is always a source of pleasure "to attend entertainments when every body goes for pleasure, and good order pre- a. vails. Then we say it was a pleasure for us to attend the closing exercises of the Prosperity High School on last Thursday night. The programme was II taken up as laid down in last week's Herald and News. We thought we' thougbt we had started.in plenty of a time to secure a seat, but after we bad 03 arrived and made an effort to get into e the house we found every space of s< room so completely packed we did not ~ have as much as elbow room. So, Mr. -- ~ditor, you need not expect much of' a report from. a corresp.ondent who was Ii jammed in a crown of, possibly, more ; th~an five huindred people, and had tob stand qp all the time with his eyes fulli of 4qat and sand. Blut anyhow we must say that the exercises were soI complete that we enjoyed the occasion very much. At first, Prof. Counts made a very earnest appeal lo the au dience for good behavior during the exercises-and notwithstanding the uncomfortable condition of the crowd very good order prevailed. The brave a and noble mimnner in which the pupils I all acquitted themselves, rettects much - honor upon theiv teachers; it shows that np' tim~e has been spared in the development of the bright intellects. The music furnished. by the Prosperity string band, which Was. led by .Re\\ T. 0. Igeister, added muclh to the~ ei-: t joymentof the oecasion. lThere are no. better indications of thrift and- enterprisee in a town or commilunity tban its chqrcthes and 2 schools-and in both Igrosperity takes ~ ,very high rank. 'B We sometiunes think, after putting in r .frota twelve to fifteen hours of actual i farm labor a day, tlhat it would be i I quite pleasant to liye in town and enjoy s.>ne of the pleasures and lux - uries of town life, such as taking in a - cooler when you get too hot, and to see Dr. Peiham put on some of his cour Steous smiles; to step out of your place of business with your high heel patent 1 - shoes, cutaway coat, standing collar, - f fried shirt, and great big-legged pants o., with your shoefly dangling in thi - air; also with your bead back a,d cigarette rammed in one ide of your' Smouth just maging the smoke fly then opder your cuffie to make the a wheels roll for a few hours of pleasure t in the open air. Some of you who e have always experienced such a life, s just tell me if this isn't a happy state .to live In. Now don't have a thought a that I am the least envious of a single soul that is fortunate enough to enjoy such pleasures. This is all very nice, so long as you can keep down the t swell head. - CHiPS. - qur Big Successes ~l~aving the n'eeded merit to more than make c go'od all the advertising claimed for them, . the following four remedies have reached a phenonsen al sale.
