John Gary Evans wts in Edge field for a few hojrs on Saturday last. A nice little shower on Monday night of this week, the forerunner no doubt of other and larger downpours Mr. D. B. Hollingsworth^ steam thresher is now ready for tbe season's work. If you wish him to come to your house see bim or drop bim a postal. Prof. J. J. Niciols, the magnetic healer, of Augusts. Ga, is at Mayson P. 0, in this coanty, treating some difficult cases; thence he goes north for the summer. "Capt. Ras. Mims, of Augusta, Ga. has rented tas Griffin place on the hill and will remove thither with his fam ily in a few days. Quite an acquisition to Edgefield society. We are gratified to state that our esteemed townsman Capt. Jas. Bennett bas entirely recovered} from a recent severe bilious attack, and is able to be out on the streets again. In our account of the commencement last week we made Rev. Mr. Daniel the pastor of the First Baptist church of Abbeville. It should have been the First Methodist church instead. The stands of cotton ic Edgefleld county are nothing to brag of any where, bot in the red lands they are very poor. The oat crop is not a good one. The one good point to speak of is that, we have no grass as yet. That Apple Butter, in three pound cans, on sale at Bub Sheppard's, is su perb --fresh and delicious. We know whereof we write, because we've tried it. And we are an expert judge as to sweet nice apple butter and hot bis cuits, batter cakes, etc, Capt. Stan Ryan had a sick gobbler. He, Stan, not the gobbler, came to Edgefleld and bought some of Penn's Bitters, and gave?tbe gobbler a dose. In an hour he commenced gobbling,gob- j bled all that day and night. Stan says he and the gobbler are both now quite well, and still gobbling. Mr. R. H. Mims, who bas been a honey-bee man for the last half cen tury, is now offering his entire stock in the bee line-hives, honey, bees and all-at low figures, as he is going to wipe his hands of the whole business. We did not ask why he had resolved to be an apiarist no longer from this date . ~but if you want to know, ask him. flou. Geo. W. Turner died at his home near Vaucluse, Aiken county, on Thursday morning of last week. Mr. Turner at one time represented Edge-1 field county in the legislature, and leaves a widow and a large family, be sides troops of friends to mourn his departure. He was a man of generous impulses and did many good deeds, deeds of kindness which have not been rewarded on this side. We acknowledge the receipt of an invitation from Prof. W. D. Holland, to attend the commencement exercises of the Johnston Institute from June l'-U. The graduating class consists! of four, all young ladies, viz: Miss May Norris, Miss Susie Gunter, Miss Weinona Lewis, Miss Bulab Banks. There wi1' be addresses by D. A. Tomp kins, of charlotte. N. C.,and Gen. M. C. Butler. The commencement sermon will be preached bj Dr. H. R. Mosely. At the competitive examination held in Blackville on Saturday for the ap pointment to a cadetship at West Point, Tillman Bunch, son of Dr. G A. Bunch, of Edgefleld, won the prize] Young Bunch was a student of the South Carolina Co-Educational Insti tute during the session just ended. It is also a notable fact that the four who stood highest at the Blackville ex amination three were students of tbe S. C. C. L what the town of Edgefleld wants I co do now, wants in the sense of anx ious to do, is to issue fifteen thousand dollars of school bonds bearing inter est .-it or 5 per cent, sell these bonds at par or above and build for Prof. Bailey a structure on tbe old Academy grou? ds that will fill the bill and be an ornament to our town. Of .course we must do away with the pres ent tax for municipal pu rposes^which as altogether unnecessary. Mr. Joseph Long and wife, of Mt. Willing, were in town on Monday, looking well and happy. Mrs. Long, formerly Miss Fannie Christian, daughter of Mr Henry and Mrs. Martha Christian, both of whom died years ago, was present to superintend the erection in our cemetery of monu ments over her father, mother and lit tle brother. Mr. Barnes, the contrac tor, furnished and put up the tombs,, and the work has been well and beau tifully done, and is very creditable to bim. I Prof. F. N. K. Bailey has been ap pointed by Superintendent McMahan inductor of the summet school for ichera for Edgefleld county to be d at Edgefleld this summer for one \th. Miss Sallie Bailey has been *inted conductor or director of the vt music school. This simmer *? .opens July 115th, if we remember *T^and its sessions will be held at ' jtltute. The cost to teachers Vl ''jmply enough to^pay for their PrtTll>g while in attendance. J>ur*eH Adams, son of JE rues B Adais Lg HTaafcjjie, took one of the medi8 fSenmauship at the ii. C. C. L c?mSment just ended. We. 1 fact to call attention to u ?, ?? that Panter *?? Rus,!

'or twenty \ \ \ Mr. Willie Davis, aged about 45 years, died at the residence di his brother, Mr. Bland Davis, near this town, on the 20th.inst. Some three years ago Mr. Davis accidentally shot himself, and ever since then has been an invalid. But prior to that date, he was known as an active, energetic and good farmer, and for many years was the stay and support of his widowed mother and the younger children. And he discharged the trust imposed upon him manfully and well-faithfully and lovingly. And now that aged mother and brothers and sister, together with many friends, sorrow and lament his loss. He was kind-h?arted, honest and true. Peace to his memory. Heaven rest his soul. Alu m ni-Alumnae Society. We have heard some speculation as to the meaning of the hyphenated word alumni-alumnae. We never had in our midst before a co-educational Institution, hence we have not seen these two words in such close juxta position. Alumni is the masculine plural of the Latin word alumnus which means Utterly a graduate. Alumnae is tbe feminine plural of the same word. Hence the Alumni-Alum na? Society of the S. C, C. I. simply means in English the male and female graduates of the S. C. C, I. McCormick Mowers and Rakes, Reapers and Binders. I am agent for these goods, McCor mick Mower, one-half, $22.50. payable November, 1899, balance, $22.50, paya ble November, 1900. McCormick Reap er and Binder, late3t and lightest three horse, payable one-third, $45, Novem ber, 1899; one-thi^d, $45, November, 1900; one-third, $45, November, 1901. If you are a large planter of grain, say sixty acres, you will pay out cash $45 for cutting and binding your grain this season, on the other hand you should take in this cutting for other people.

Mrs. John Cl egg. This lady the wife of Mr. John Clegg of this city, died at her home Tuesday night of congestion of the bowels. Mrs. Clegg's illness was of shore duration. She was up the street last Saturday and had her Shotograph taken. Mr. Clegg was [les Hassie Corley, the daughter of Mr. Vincent Corley of the Kirk sey section. She was a member of the Baptist church of this city. Dr. Forrester went to Mountain Creek Wednesday with the remains and conducted the services at that place where the interment took place. Besides her husband she leaves nine children and a large number ol friends and relatives to mourn her loss. We extend to them our heartfelt ano* most sincere sympathy.-Greenwood Journal.

Capt. Jim Miner's Latest Piece. This iection of Edgefield c ounty, Liberty Hill or Longmires, is a fine section for dirt daubers, because there is BO much mud here in the winter, in fact every time it rains. It is called Longmires because in rainy weather there is a long mire from here to Edgefield, hence the name; and this remiuds me that there used to be an old writing school teacher here by the name of Dunmire, past participle Dun mutton, He always Bpelled pepper with one "p," thus peper. ThiB old writing teacher had two favor ite pieces of poetry he invariably used in his copy books for the pu pils to write after, to wit : A man of words and not of deed? Is like a "garding" full of weeds. And A man of deeds and not of words Is like a "garding'' full of birds. The last two lines we have always supposed to be original with Dun mire, wo boys always called him Dunmutton. But I have wandered from my subject. I started out to ask you if you have heard or seen anything ct Jim Logan? It is rumored up here that he hes gone to Charles ton to the reunion, and if that be so it is time he was getting back. It bas been frequently reported that Mr. Jim Logan bad gone to divers places, New York, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, etc., one man even bad the cheek to say that he had "gone to work !" By the way did you ever know or hear of the reason why you never see or never will see a dead gray mule or a dead jackass? Well, the people up b-ere say that these quadrupeds aU turu to old fit>ld school teachers^ an,d as a conse quence you never see a dea<J gray mule or jackass. Ask Albert Nich olson about it; you might also ask him if he believes in the ancieut Egyptian doctrine of Meteinpsy BAY STA We are sole agents for the Bay ? Shoe and Leather Co.

S.-We also hear up here, whenevt- the dirt daubers stop zooning long enough for us to hear anything, that the democratic slogan next year will not be 16 to 1, but 16 to 16. Now this sounds better. It looks fairer than 16 to 1-a sort of an even trade. And Jim Miner will stand up to 16 to 16, but 16 to 1 he can't do it. Brother! we'll hatter drap 16 to 1, or be drapped by the American people. Yours again, JIM MINER. Preserving Surplus Summer Butter. About the most convenient way of preserving a srr',11 quantity of butter for future family UBO is to wrap each lump of butter by itself in a clean and moistened piece of thin muslin and then pack in stone jars. Tubs will do if perfectly 6weet and not leaky. Keep the butter covered with a clear brine made by bringing to 1 oiling point and holding for some minutes a solution of salt in water. It should be made of good butter salt, free from odor, and pure water, and the solution should he saturated, i e, there should be as much salt added as will dissolve. After boiling slightly for eight to ten minutes, set in a cool place and when thoroughly cooled the brine may be poured over the butter. Be sure to keep the butter well uuder the brine by means of a slight weight placed on top of it. If the butter is allowed to float it will come in contact with air and be injured. The boiling removes the air from the brine and destroys the ferments which may be present in the salt or water. Keep the jars covered and on the bottom of the cellar or other cool place. If tubs are U6ed put them on a board or a stone to prevent the hoops rotting off. It ought to be understood that butter for long keeping mnst have th.i buttermilk very thor oughly removed at the time it is made. Treated in the manner indicated there should be no difficulty in preserving the summer butter surplus for the following winter and spring consumption. Ked Hot From The Gun. Was the hail that hit G.

As a flesh producer one pound of eggs is equal to one pound of beef. About one-third the weight of an egg is solid nutri ment, which is ?nore than can be said of meat. There are no bon OB and tough pieces that have to bo laid aside. Practically an egg is animal food, and yet there is none of the disagreeable work of the butcher necessary to obtain it. Eggs at average prices are among the cheapest and most uutritous articles of diet. Like milk, an egg is complete food in itself, con taining everything that is neces sary for the development of a per fect animal. It is - also easily digested if not damaged in cook ing.-Presbyterian Banner. The Charlotte Observer says that, "The truth is that the more we bear of the war in the Philippines, the less we find in it to commend. The Baltimore Sun tells the tru*h when it says that the war we are carrying on against our "rebels" in the Philippines resembles closely the devastating war Spain was carrying on in Cuba when we interfered. Says the Sun : 'Spain was blamed for killing Cuban patriots, arresting industry and commerce, devaating the country and making slow progress. In the Philippines we have killed far more of the natives than Spain ever killed in Cuba, and as some of our soldiers report that no quarteris given to the Filipinos, we cannot claim much superiority to Spain in the point of barbarity."
