It ia a conceded fact that Lexiogton has some as fine musical talent as - can be found in the State, both as regards voice and execution and we can see no reason why they cannot v get together and give weekly entertainments, charging a nominal ?dmission, in Boot's Hall. It will help to while away the dnll summer evenings and give pleasure and enjoy^ ment to our people. Smallpox Stamped Out. Virtually the smallpox has died out here. Nearly all the patients iiave been released from quarantine I and no new cases have developed, premises have been thoroughly fumigated and articles handled by patients have been burned. There i9 now but little, if any danger of other case breaking out. Business Increasing. Now since the smallpox scare has died oat business has returned to its natural channel and everything is moving along in apple pie order. People are coming and going as usual and the rieappearnce of the jolly drummer .reminds us of a selection from a classical verse: "Hark! hark! the dogs do bark; The drummers are coming to town, Some with rags and some with jags And some with velvet gowns.5' , A Young Lady Dead., After a long and unequaled "struggle with that grim monster death, the sweet spirit of Miss Sallie Wingard, of Iene, took its fight to the city of many mansions eternal in the heavens, at the home of her brother in Winnsboro, where she had gone for medical treatment, on Friday, . ^ May 26th, 1905.

Her remains were carried to Irene and t interred in the cemetery there. At Best. The news of the death of Capt. J.
