Strange as It may seem you will find great many people who have no idea i the incorporate limits of the town in hich they live. Most smail towns dally have an inci-poration of at ast a mile radius from a central iut, but Winnsboro varies in this r, pect as well as In miny others from te general endition of things. Her corporate limits are one-half mile e t and west from the e)art house and t -fourths of a mile north and soth .m the same pcint. But even with t fact known, a few people still have n idea of the real extent of the lim'ts. eir conception of distance is so faulty t they ei-her plac3 many who live in t out of town or those who live-out 0 town In town. A great deal of do t, therefore, exists In the case of tb e who live near the limits. The re at municipal election has just bringht to light an instance of this kiraa in connection with a gentleman w tWs supposed to live i4 town. lily couvin~cf :WW Obe citlZis who lived J e mte w nthat hswas urging him to vote In -the town pri. m-ry. Juet to convince bis solicitor that be cou'd not enijoy the exalted privilege of voting in the naid primary, the citizen in question said he would recite his 'p->ssutn experience for the last few m->nths, which was owr this .ise as given to a reporter for. The News and Herald: Now, when people talk atout 'pot ums, that means the country, to be sure; and so this possum experierce, which was as follows, was listened to with the greatest Interest by all stand ing around: '-You know," said the non-resident, "when I was a boy, a long time ago we always set our tat~bit-gums, and it was the very greatest delight of my boyhoc d days to catch a rabbit In this way'. I cantinued setting my rabbit gum till I was quite a large boy, when I tound the habit so firmly fixed upon me that I could not thre w it off, and as strange as it nmay seem to len, I still set my rabbit gum every winter. Last fall, according to my old habit, I set my gum, and for a few mornings I had such bad luck, that I quit going to t; but on Thanksgiving morning I was passing by It, when I noticed the door was down. Curiosity caused me to open it, and to my great surprise, the box had a gr< a b'g 'possum, which I had for my Thank'giving dinner along with the usual turkey." "Well, of couse," he continued, "I kipt a close watch on that gum after that, and without telling you about the rabtil's caught between t'e festivities, I had another great surprise on Chrismss morning in the way of another 'possum." Two possums in one winter, said the Interested listeners. "Why, yes;" continued the narator of this out-of town experience, and while you may net believe It, that is just one half tU e number I have caught s,, far. Why 1 began the new century by ca'ching a 'p s uim In that same gum on New Yeas 'a morning. My next catch was on St. Vale rtintes' Day. ~- you see that t bis makes four 'pos sums I hava csught this winter, and I am s'ill counting on my fifth one." Tsii was too many '1,essums for a mnipal voter, and nothing more was said ab~nt the primary-cr the club. Trespass Notice.
