Bel-I ser last Wednesday night in the in terest of the circulating libraryI p roved to be a very enthusiastic one. Rev. Jos. Crockard was called to the chair, who stated the object of the meeting to be that of considering the feasibility of organizing such a libra ry at this place. It being a unani mous opinion that such was needed and could be done, it was decided to organize under the name of The Sum merton Library Association. Seven teen names of those present were taken down as wishing to join. This umber will be increased by as many more. A committee was appointed to draft rules and regulations and to report at next meeting, when a regu lar organization will be affected. The next meeting will be at Maj. R. R. Brigs's, Wednesday night the 18th. The regular election of officers for the town of Summerton was held last Thursday as advertised. The fol owing were elected: A. P. Burgess, intendant; R. R. Briggs, R. H. Belser, J. R. Dingle, H. R. Meldatu, wardens; Dr. B. M. Bad ger, member of board of health. The retrns of the election were received by the old council on Fri ay. The report of the clerk showed the town to be in a sc,'md condition inancially. At a meeting of the new ouncil Mr. J. D. Ellen was elected lerk and treasurer.

PACKSVILLE DOTS. Packsville, March 17.-Another run away! While haulihg guano Mr. Edward A. Geddings's horse became frightened, ran some distance, break ing the wagon and throwing Mr. Geddings out, striking his head against the wheel, which resulted in a serious wound. He was carried to.. Messrs. Bradham & Cole's store and the doctor imme diatiys ent for. He remained there for several hours and was then taken home. At last accounts he was im proving very slowly, if any. This is the second accident of that kind we have had during the past week. Miss Jessie Curtis paid her usual visit to Packsville last Friday and re turned Sunday afternoon. Miss Cur tis is teaching school near Summer ton, therefore can only be at home Saturdays and Sundays, which her many friends always look forward to with pleasure for her arrival. Mr. J. 0. DuRant, of Bishopville, also gave orr little- town a visit last Saturday a id Sunday. He was at one time a telegraph operator at this p lace, where he met some of the Packsville fair sex and now finds it convenient to return occcsionally. Rev. C. M. Billings, who will be pastor of the Packsville Baptist church this year, was in town Mon day, and will move in on Wednesday, the 18th. He will preach his first sermon Sunday, March 22nd. We hope to have a large attendance. Miss Daisy Weeks left Monday for Mar assa, Georgia, where she expects to make her future home. We are now having some fine weatl'er after a little snow which fell last week. - We don't know how far south the snow extended but am af a'd that some of H's flowers were injured. We are in hopes that the measles in this neighborhood are about over as nearly everybody has already had them and think that our faithful Dr. Reynolds will have more leisure than here of late. CooN. ALCOLU CHIPS. Alcolu, March 18.-Died last Satur day afternoon, Robert Hodge, aged eleven years, a son of Mr. J. R. B. Hodge. This family is exceedingly afflicted.

Register and family, of Trio, S. C., are visiting Mrs. Merritt, and all are in bed with measles. Mrs. Merritt has several children sick with it also. Mrs. Register and Mrs. Mer ritt are sisters of Captain D. W. Al derman. This contagion has become an epi demic over here. Mrs. Murphy is very sick, so is Mrs. Smith and her children. The death of Mrs. Robert J. Alder man has cast a gloom over our town. M. SILVER SPARKLINGS. Silver, March 17.-There is nothing happening in and around our fine little town to mar the peace and prosperity of our people.

Bragdon and family have moved into town and will make Sil ver their future home. Judge T. B. Owen is quite sick with-fever.

She died Satur day, the 14th, about 5 o'clock and was buried in the Union burying ground at 5 olock Sunday evening, the 15th. Rev. E. H. Beckham c->nducted the fnneral services. She leaves a husband and two small children to mourn her loss. She had been sick for some time and her death was not a suprise to her or her loved ones. She expressed her readinea: to die if it was God's will for her to go. Her life and death is a glorious example to her fellow man. We hear of a few around here who are planting corn this week.

Ellen Ridgeway, aged 72 years, died at her home, near Jordan, March 6th 1896. Although uncon scious when found, and remaining so, we have a well grounded hope that our friend is forever with the Lord. She joined the church at an early age and was a consistent Chris tian from the date of her conversion to her death. She was devoted to all interests of the church. She was especially cheerful around her fire side and always looked on the bright side of life, thereby encouraging others to look forward to better things. Our friends are passing over; the blood-wvashed company on the other side of the river is growing larger each day. There is a happy land Far, far away, Where saints immortal stand Bright, bright:as day, A FRIEND. .Tnrdan, March 14th 189ft A GREAT OFFER!
