'The story entitled "Emily Geiger, The Gallant Courier," the initial chapter of which we pub lish on our outside this week, will be read with great interest espe cially by our younger readers. The story deals with the seige of the old star redoubt at Ninety Six during the Revolutionary war. The heroine, Miss Emily Geiger, was the greatgrand-mother of the venerable and much beloved Mrs. Elizabeth Nicholson, who still lives, the widow of Dr. Benjamin Nicholson. ' Death of Dr. Sheppard. Dr. W. S. Sheppard died at his home in Edgefield county, on last Friday, and was buried at the family burying ground on the fol lowing day.? Dr. Scott Sheppard was about forty-five yeai s of age, was the brotlber of ?ov. J. C. and 0. Sheppard, Esq. For the past six or eight years deceased was confined td his room, unable to practice his profession, but even in this condition his counsel was sought in medical matters not only by his large circle of friends and neighbors, but by his professional brethren as well ; and, but for the disease from which he suffered so long, Dr. Scott Sheppard's fame as a'physician* would have been co extensive with the county. De ceased left a wife and several children to mourn an irreparable loss. D?ings at and Around Mine Creek. MR. EDITOR :. I don't know what all these folks who are getting' married are going to do about" ra tions thi B year.- They tell methat when a man gets a wife, they are two in one flesh, but the thought that has been occupying my mind for some time ii, whether or not they can-both live on what it re quires to support one. If the an swer comes in the affirmative, it affords me great joy, if in the oegative-woe unto their condi tion. About one of the funniest things that has attracted my attention re jehtly, was the attempt by a young man in this community to pay the preacher in dried apples. We un ierstand there is to be a big pie sating at Rev,, C. G. Bradford's be fore long, to which Mr. I. T.. and his young bride will be invited. Well, boys, I don't know whether we will all be invited or not, as twenty-five cents worth of apples trill not make very many pies. We observe that Mr. Charley Lewis is conducting the Pine arove school with great energy and skill, and we are beginning to wonder if ere long he will not rival the Emory high school. Sam Jones says that if a farmer ?vants to got rid of those M?y weeds, all he has to do is just to ?prinkle a little whiskey over them md the Baptist brethren will eat them up. Capt. C. Ward says he he has three acres of cockleburrs, ind desires to know if he can de stroy them by the same application. Look here, "John Blake," is it possible you are to get married ?con? I hear suck rumors travell ing up and down the high ways. Boy s, let us hear from you through the ADVERTISER. I always mjoy reading your epistles very much. VAN STAR. Mine Creek, S, C. Bots From Upper Choty. MR. EDITOR: Thinking that a few dots from this section would not be amiss, we ask a short space in yourcolumus. Christmas has come and gone, the snow has about, melted, and the farmers are trying to settle lown to their work again. There have been a great many changes mad with Cuffee thu year. Some farmers have procured all new hands, and nearly all have made some change which causeB a great dead of moving. _ _ ^ . The bad weather has given tho sroppers and renters a long h ili iay,andit is hard to geb them fairly to work again, but we are all jubilant over the prospects, is the old farmers say "a hard winter, a good crop year" and as snow'is the poor man's manure we have had sufficient of both. Now if the farmers can be persuaded to plant largely of corn md all root crops and supply home with plenty of hog and hominy and let the cotton bea surplus, the day is in the near future when the farmers will be a prosperous people. Then, as we all know, the merchants, editor* etc. will all prosper, as when the farmer suffers, all suffer. We think that the newspaper men ibo ve all others, being educators )f the people should make a long pull, a strong pull, and a pull ill together to get the acreage iu cotton reduced and other crops increased. We think that the present price of bacon as well as }f all other-provisions should :ause UB to consider and we hope it is a blessing in disguise. So may it be. If you have not paid a visit to [Jhoty. lately, you should come lown as far ?s Bed Hill, the capital, and see the improvements. Here a ?ne school will be found md an able and conpeten t teacher. - Mr. Arthur ; Morgan keeps a store of general merchandise and will sell you goods as' cheap as the cheapest. The progress of the place, however, is mostly due to the noble-hearted Mr. Henry Bussey who runs a large saw and grist mill with gin, planer, and shingle machine, and also a wood and blacksmith shop. All who visit tho place will find Honry'a good mau and never tiring in his sfforts to do good to his fellow man. On every side new buildings are going up. If you should visit that section be sure to see Mr. L. E. G lan ton and taste his honey with the light rolls that his wife bakes, and when pou return come by and see little Ben Ouzts Wood, and George the happiest man in his section. Miss Lizzie Eubanks began a largo and flourishing school at Barrs Chapel on the sixteenth. She met her pupils every day luring tho Bnow, which proves her faith as a teacher. We are all glad to hear that Mr. 7/hit Rej'uolds is recovering and is out again.' We will close by wishing best success to your noble paper MORE ANON. Franklin, S. C.. Shot From Ambush. Columbia, S. C., Jan. 29 J. H. Clamp, a thriving fara was killed in ambush last nig and" from the meagre eviden there is strong reason to belie that his wife and a mau who h been living at Clamp's house a at the bottom of it. Clamp, li Ridgeway last night and w found this moruingj about a he mile from his house in a thick with half his head blown off ai his brains scattered on the oth side of the road. The assassin tracks were traced to Clamp yard and John Atkinson a whi man who had been living wii Clamp for the last year, WJ arrested. The gun found besi< the murdered man proved to 1 his own, giving color to the bell that Atkinson committeed tl deed. There is strong evidenc showing that Mrs, Clamp wi accessory to the deed and she h; been placed under bond, Jaspi Atkinson, an ex-convict hi also been arrested as being one i those who shot Clamp. Whe Clamp was shot his little son wi riding a few feet ahead of hil At the report of the gun, ti animal shied and the boy wi thrown and had his arm broken. A Big Indian in the House. There was an amusing scene c the floor of the house to-day befo] congress assembled. About ll c o'clock Frank Gannan, chief ( the pages, appeared on the floe with a big Indian in tow. Tl Indian was in full war paint, wit feathers and many co lored blanke and carried in his hand a re feather duster. After lookin around the house, the Indian wa conducted to the Speakers des and placed in the chair, ami tremendous applause from th members on the floor. The page were simply delighted, and gat! ered around and gazed, with ope months, at the ohief. When th Speaker's gravel was handed to th Indian, he thought i; was a pip of peace, and tried to smoke i but finally, when shown his mie take, he rapped with it so har that Jerry Simpson remarked "Why, that's the first savage wh has been in the chair since T"i Reed's time." After sitting some time in th speaker's ohair, Chief Wolf, fo that is his name, and he is flor Washington State,,, waa take] :doSntron the floor, to Bourke; Cook ran's seat.. W^hen he sat there wa. a general round of applause a some one remarked : "There is ; Tammany brave in Cockran's seal The Indian did not seem to mini the" crowd gazing at him, bu calmly sat and fanned himsel with his feather duster. The page got in line and filed past him, am he shook .hands after the regula tion dude fashion, holding hi hand and elbow high. When th boys ' got through Mr. Holmai w*nt over and shook hands witl Chief Wolf, and then Jerry Simp son again came forward ?nd re marked : "Why, Mr. Holman, yoi don't speak Indian, but Indiana,' and both laughed at the joke but the Indian looked bored. When the time came to clea the floor they had a b ard time ii getting the Indian out of Bourk< Cockran's seat. Finally he was in duced to go into the gallery anc let the Tammany leader occupj his chair. As Wolf left the flooi he remarked: "Heap big tim< here. Me like it."-Washingtoi Post. Not So Bad After All. The Atlanta Journal, which hat not beeu partial to Governor Till man, puts in some good words for his administration in. thc following : "The South Carolina newspapers which have been devoting so m ucl space to picturing the disastei and woe resulting from Governoi Tillman's adminstration, ought tc find profitable reading in the re port of the progress of the cottoE industry in this country made by the Textile World and publish, ed a few days ago in The Jouraal, "The report shows that the in crease in the number of operatives, looms and spindles employed in cotton manufacture during the past year was greater in SouthCaro lina than in any other Southern State : that as many new cotton factories * were started in South Carolina during the year as in Alabama, Georgia, Texas* and I Tennesse combined ; that, in short the Palmetto Stata leads the great new South in the manufacture of tte South's leading staple and stands second only to Massachu setts in all the union. "The showing is a splendid one, oneof which Carolina may well be proud and on which we cannot overlook the fact that all this remarkble progress and develop ment has taken plac? under the Tillman administration-a fact which some of our Carolina con temporaries seem to have strangely and studiously ignored; "An administration marked by such industrial advancement as this can net be BO bad aft sr all," Charleston Sun.
