Klc?trlc Lighting.
The electric lighting of tho
Baptist church isatl that could

into Brother Ferris, for he

used.
Dyson tu?y.
The attention of tho board of
Health is called to the numerous
nnd virulent cases of dysentary
that have raged for the last ton
<lays. Tho weather has not been
such as to cause it, so there must
be something else wrong. We
do not know of course, but ii
may be the water. An analysis
of it at the houses of the pat
ents is in order.

The DeKalb Cotton Mills were
sold on Tuesday to Mr. Morrfs

? Rebuttal.
I want to say that I am in the
race for Sheriff to win and not to
cut the vote of aqy particular
candidate.
It has been rumoured that I
am out for that purpose. No
one but a sneak would play that
game, and my worst enemy will
not call me a sneak.*
Very respectfullv,

Candidate for Sheriff.

Sad Death.
The news of a death always
comes as a shock but it is with
peculiar sadness that we chron
icle that of little Bennie, the
eighteen months old son of Capt.
and Mrs. Benj. Haile which oc
curred on Sunday morning.
Having just arrived at the most
interesting age of babyhood, the
home ho brightened is cast in
gloom, but one more angel is
added to the countless myriads
who are said to await us on the
other shore. Our heart -felt and
deepest sympathy is extended to
the bereaved parents , aud rela.
tives.
A Dangerous Place.
The attention of the County
Supervisor is called to that large
bunch of shrubbery on the east
side of the Court Inn property.
To anv one groin# out of town m
that direction the view from up
the railroad is entirely cut off,
and it is not until you get on the
railroad that any danger from
trains from the north can be
seen. We believe that this same
bunch of shrubbery cutting off
his view, was the cause of the
death of our old friend, Mr. W.
E. Osteon some timo since. Cut
it out. It does not add anythms?
to the beauty of the section, and
is a ineuace to life and property.
Cmndeu Historical Society.
The next meeting' of this Soci
ety will be held 011 Tuesday ev
ening, May 3, at 8 o'clock. ? The
programme arranged by the Ex
ecutive Committee is as follows:
A paper on the ''Indian Era" of
Camden, by Mr. Kirklatul. (This
is a chapter from the forthcom
ing history of Camden.) A re
port as to the history, ownership
and proper disposal of the old
Revolutionary cannon about Cam
den, by Mr. Yates. Koth papers
will be discussed by the Society.
It is hoped that the enrollment
m;iy be increased at the next
meeting.
8pcci.iljX<iti(c.
We desire to call the particular
attention of the friends and can
didates who have favored us with
their cards of announcement
that these transactions are
usually regarded as cash ac
companying notice.
An election year is generally
a harvest for journalists, but so
far, we have seen but little of
the fruits of the harvest, so this
is to respect ftflly call upon the
candidates to come forward, and
settle. If we do not receive a
response to this request by may
15th, we will make draft for the
amount through one or the other
of our local banks.
Trolly I.lu c.
Why is not more progress be
ing made 111 the erection of that
trolley line? Now that it is al
most a foregone conclusion that
the new Court House scheme
will be defeated, it has become
[an absolute necessity to our leg
weary lawyers. Mental force
may be economized, but when it
comes to log weariness, or lyss
of physical power, we must put
in a good word for 1ho poor law
yer. Give us that trolley lino.
Win! Candidates.
We want to call particular at -
tention to a fact already stated
in our columns. No candidate
can hope to win in this campaign
who is not a subscriber to The
People, or who has not his card
of announcement with us. CM
course, we cannot, guarantee to
elect all of you, but we will elect
all that wo possibly can. We
are sending out tjiis week a num
ber of sample copies to candi
dates who are already announced,
and to a number who are in em
bryo. Come on, my friends, with
your subscriptions and curds.
Wo will welcome you with open
arms and a full heart, especially
as wo expect you to furnish us
with a full purte.

The editor of this paper sig

A new suit of clqthes or a new

contribute to that &id, especially

sometimes impossible to make a
perfect thing more perfect, or an

The City Beautiful.
Camden is a beautiful city, es
pecially at this scaBon of the
year, but can be made more so.
Property holders should fence
in their vacant lots, and white
wash the fences. The City Coun
cil should have all trees that en
croach upon the sidewalks cut
away, and then have the ditches
filled up. put in terra cotta pip
in**, and plant trees Qn all tho
side streets when the proper
season arrives. That $3,000 sur-:
plus must bo spent.

On Tuesday nightlast, what is
knowu as the waste room at the
Camden Cotton Mills was de
stroy qd by fire. We have not
ascertained the cause of tire, but
supposo that it was one of thoso
accidents which occur from time
to tirao in the history of every
mil).
On the same nisrht in Camden
the residence of Mr. C. C. Moore
on upper Lyttleton street was
burned to the ground with all its
contents. At this writing we
have not been able to ascertain
the cause of tire, or what amount
of itisuranco was carried by Mr.
Moore. In any event the occur
rence is to be deplored, as doubt
less many family relics were des- 1
troyed that no money can ro

Wo have since learned that

What follows may sound like
the devil quoting scripture, but
we were so profoundly impressed
with the remarks of Bro. Ferris
on Sunday night concerning the
small attendence at the weekly
prayer- meeting, that we feel
impelled to call the attention of
uot only his church members b.ut
I those of other churches to it.
Everyone knows that we are not
a member of any church, but we
have a profound regard for the
church of whatever denomination
it may be, and as an outsider, we
want to say thqt any member of
any church who cannot hold up
his or her pastor's hands one
hour in the week is a very poor
church member, and is not
worthy of "that great salvatiou"
so eloquently portrayed by Bro,
Ferris on Sunday night. 4,By
yqur works shall ye be known."
