About Right. Representative Wright, of Ro v;i,n, has introduced in the Le; '.slature a bill requiring the Jfitie to be taught in the public schools. On the face of it this measure sounds all right but it is frai.ght with mischief and we sincerely hope that for the ptace and welfare of the btato it will be r.eated. In the first placo the a ve'-age country school teacher is Lot compete.it to leach the iii Me, and if the were competent they would teach it and interpret it lib they had been taught in aer Hi-dance with the doctrines of the Church to which they belong or in which they were traineu. It is impossible, .we think, to l.avr the Scriptures taught from a inn-do;.oinhiationul standpoint ami Leaching them in any other wny wiil certainly cause trouble. Jn i lc socond place, teaching the ltiti .. in public schools is trench in jpon the prerogatives of the ( lunch ana hundiiy school and is i. udoring upon a union of CM ich and State.

Go forth to meet the fut ure without fear, and with a manlyiheart." The South to-day, standing up on the threshold of a new epoch iu her material development, has no time for idle tears. The mist of doubt and misgiving; of misrule and Fusionism has passed and the future opens up a vista as entrancing as the sunrise from a mountain top and as pleasing as the prattle of an innocent babe. She holds within her hands an Aladdin's lamp filled with mystic power to product every necessity for the comfort and advance ment of mankind. Stored with in her mountains are untold mil lions of mineral wealth and the winds of her forest are ladend with a message of hope for the future. From her hillsides and valleys bubbles forth mineral water impregnated with the pow er to put to flight all pestilential vapors that ever escaped from Pandoras box. Health, wealth and happiness, she offers to her children, at a smaller amount of exertion, upon their part, than any other section. Let us accept her rich gift; wise ly improve the present, and the future will speak for itself. Charlotte News. (jot Pension on a String. A story comes from Ohio of a woman whose husband got drunk and threatened to shoot her. In defending herself she seized a leather watch-guard which he wore about his neck and pulled upon it so hard and long that she strangled him. The husband was or had been a soldier in the Philippines and tho bereaved widow promptly applied for a pension, which had just been granted hor. She is to receive eisrht dollars a month from a grateful government, for having done one of its cavalry men to death. -Almost anything is possible uuder our liberal pension system but it really would be interesting to know the classification undsr wnich this very queer pension is allowed. Probably the man died from disease contracted in the service. That is, he got drunk while in the service and his drunkenness was the reason that his wifestrangled him. Besides, he was an Ohio man and she is in Ohio woman. Philadelphia Times. L'ncle George's Rheumatism Cure. I met an old negro, George by name, and alter trie usual soiu- tation, the old negro said his health had improved since I had last seen him. Said I : 'Uncle George, how did you get rid of your rheumatism ?" The old man replied: "Well, boss, I'll tell you jes zackly how I cured it. I heard a fellow say f you go find a place whar a hog ubbed and ef you rub dar and squeel like a hog your rheuma tize would leave you. So I went and rubbed whar a hog rubbed md squealed same as a hog and, boss, 1 ain't had no rheumatics since." Nashville Banner. Business of the Monroe Dispensary. The patrons of the Monroe dispensary spent $20,000 last year for booze. According to the statement of the dispeusary man- igement enough liquor was sold by the dispensary last year, to say nothing of blind tigers, to make every man, woman and hild in the county drunk three times and then there would have been enough left for the snake bites and colic. And not long ago we were asked to write an article condemning the United Sta;es government for allowing bar-rooms to bo established in Manila. Monroe Enquirer. WANTED.

The fourth story and part of the second stories of Alumni llall, used as the fitting school for Wofford College, at Spartan .burg, S. C, were burned yester day morning before day. The fire broke out between the stu dents bedrooms, on the fourth floor, at 2 o clock. There were 40 boys in the dormitories in the building and those on the upper floors barely escaped with their lives. Prof. A Mason Du Pre, head master of the school; Mrs. Reeder, the matron, and Prof. H T Shockley, a tutor, roomed n the building, Mrs. Reeder, who was ill, was greatly shocked by the fire, Prof. Du Pre's private library was seriously damaged in being pitched out of windows. The Legare Literary Society, which was in the building, is a total loss. Everyone in the building escaped and the students in the two lower floors saved their furniture and books. The building, which is of brick, four 6tories- high, was built eleven years ago atacostof $10, 000. It was insured for $5,000. It is now a masa of ruins. The students will be sent to their homes and it is not known when the building will be re built. It was built originally by the Wofford Alumni. Charlotte Observer 19th. Mr. Furr's Hens 1'roQtnble. Mr. J C Furr, of Georgeville, was in the city today (Saturday) and makes a statement of his ex perience in hen husbandry He had 50 hens last year from which he sold 4,100 eggs for which ho received $40.80. He estimates that the feed cost about five cents per day $18.25. With the expenses should be counted som) depredations natural lor chickens but on the credit side should be placed all the eggs and chickens the family wanted to consume and a stock enlarged by 15 hens.

In fact we are glad he is defeated, regardless of the meaus used to defeat him or the character of his successor, who cannot in any event be a woise man than Chandler. The latter is a mean man vicious and malignant. He never lost an opportunity, and he made opportunities on all occasions, to assail tho South during all the years of his pub lic service.

Salesman before placing orders Marriage and Long Life. Insurance and Finance Chron icle: There are in this world some rollickingblades whoswag- ger about single blessedness, and ostentatiously proclaim their freedom from so-called petticoat government by siuging, "I have no wife to bother my life, No lover to prove untrue, But the whole day long, with laugh and song, I paddle my own canoe." To such we commend perusal of the following extract from The Scottish Critic: Do married men live longer than single men? Fortunately something substantial is availa ble as a reply. Thirty years ago the British government appoint ed a royal commission on the law of marriage. Statistics were not then so fully compiled as at the present day, but the commission succeeded in bringing out of what they possessed some as tounding conclusions regarding the influence of marriage on the leath rate. Dr. Stark, the regis trar general for Scotland, dis covered that the death rale of married men and widowers was a great deal lower than that Oi un married men, and that, although the death rate of the married and unmarried differed to some ex tent in various countries, the rel itivo proportions generally ap proximated to the rates found in Scotland. Figures That Speak. The earth's population is 1, 5( 0,000,000, of which more than 1,000,000,000 are yet non-Christ ians, say 800,000,000 heathen and 200,000,000 Mohammedans; 200, 000,000 are Roman Catholics, 150,000,000 are Brotestants. For tho world's redemption Protest ants are giving annually about $15,000,000; sustain a missionary force of 14,200, of whom 4,300 are ordained and 8,380 are un married women; associated with them are 4,200 ordained natives, and a total of over 54,000 na tives; about 80,000 in all. The stations and out-stations occu pied excoed 25,000; the commun icants are upward of 1,300,000, and increase at the rate of 75,- 000 annually; the adherents are estimatad at 8,500,000, while al most 1,000,000 children and youth are being, educated in the 2i000 schools.

She stated to him that if he loved whiskey better than he loved her, he must depart, and despite his pleadings, hs was forced to go his way without his bribe. Young Vernon does not appear to be addicted to drink and has a very plessing appealance, but Miss Ormsby detected that he had been drinking when the hour for the marriago ramo and his pleadings to the contrary were without avail.

A Lexington, Ky., dispatch of the l7tli says a riot is on at Cor bin, in which five persons have been killed. Mr. J C Duke, of Statesville, lost his house by fire early Fri day morning. There is no known cause for the fire and most of the house-hold property was lost. There is $1500 insurance but the loss is much greater. Luke Russell, a lawyer in Le noir County was shot from am bush Friday morning. It was done with shct and while his face and arm were peppered it seems not a very serious case. It is be lieved to have been the act of his brother-in-law whom he was prosecuting for bigamy. Mr. E P Wyatt, of Greer's S.

This college is for industrial and technical training; for the educa tion of mechanics, machinists engineers and farmers. Our State is entering upon a great career of industrial development. It needs the A and M College, It has already the University and half a dozen good colleges for general culture, but for indus trial training only this college. It should therefore be well equip' ped. It should be as well equip ped for its work, as the Univer sity for its. There is no rivalry between them. They are work- ins along differeut lines. It is almost ineredible that the A and M College has no chapel; no building for its textile machin erv: no rooms for its students who apply daily to be admitted; not enough tools and machinery for students already present; and in short an equipment not half as large as that of the South Carolina A and M College. Our sister State with about one-third as many white boys to educate provides for them twice as mucn equipment as North Carolina. All this should be changed. The interests of the State-de mand the proper equipment of the A and M College and the peo ple will approve proper action by the Legislature. Raleigh Post. Large Families. There seems to be a desire just now to find out who has the largest family in the world. The latest clai. riant to the honor is a Frenchman called Bresson, who has just celebrated the birthday of his forty first child. It was born to his third wife, who is the mother of fourteen. His first wife boro him fifteen children, and hi3 secoud wife twelye. Thirty-two of the children are still liviasr. or were up to a few months ago, when the father last heard from them. Most of them are married and raising families of their own, and they have be come so scattered mat ne can scarcely keep track of them.

To all Commanders, Camps, AND U. C VlSTEKANS : The General Commanding in vites your prompt and earnest attention to circular inclosed, dated October 22d, 1900, which is for the second time sent out to all the Camps and requests that it be placed at once before the Camps, asking help for our old comrades whose homes were swept away by the great storm f l Galveston and vicinity. Another urgent and pathetic appeal which will touch thf hearts of veterans everywhere, comes from the Jno. A Wharton Camp No. 286, at Alvin, Texas, in the wake of the Galveston storm, saying that the very small amounts received so far are nol sufficient, and calling for immed iate help. Following is extract from Ad jutant A Edwards' letter. "Wo would not trouble you agam, out tno veterans in mis vicinity are in prossing and im mediate need of every little mite they can get. They are goner ally truck farmers, owning from 5 to 15 acres and depending up on strawberries as their princi pal money crop. The storm not only demolished their homes and barns, but in many iuslanci-s completley ruined their berry plants, and all of their fall truck batches, which they expected in carry them through until berry time in the spring. "They are now without money, provisions, clothing sufficient for the winter, or food for their work stock, many living in little huts erected out of the debris of their once comfortable homes and they and their families shiv- ering over nres maao in sucu broken and dilapidated stoves as they could save from the wreck. "Without assistance of some kind, I do not see how they are to live through the winter. Should they live through the winter, spnns will find them in debt for supplies, and more than likely with largo medical and drug bills that will more than consume all that they will rea lize from their spring crop, and leave them in as bad condition as they are now. "I cannot see my old com rades who so bravely, for their country, bore the hardships of 186118G5, in this condition with out making an effort to relieve them. "I am proud to inform you that, though they aro now aged with grey beads and bent forms, the spirit of old days is still in them and they are now fighting the battle of life with the same vim. finere-v and courage that carried them through our great war. "If these veterans can get suf ficient of the actual necessaries of life to carry them through the winter, leaving them their spring crops intact with which to re build their homes, they will again become independent and self-supporting tax-payers, as they are now an honor to their country. ' These old comrades are from nearly every Southern State, and fought upon neariy every battle field of the war, and are now in such dire distress that tho General Commanding deems it his sacred duty to lay the con dition of these grand old veter ans before the U. C. V. Camps and our comrades everywhere, and ask for such help as they foel able to give. Only a very small amount from each would suffice, fifty cents and one dollar amounts thankfully received. Contributions sent to theso headquarters will be receipted for and promptly forwarded, and names of donors published in full in the proceedings of the next reunion; or can be sent di rect to Jno.
