Moffett, M. D., HI 35. Louis, Mo. 19-2t Old man Jackson Powell, an inmate of the county home for 15 or 20 years, n died Wednesday of heart disease. Mr. Powell was possibly the oldest man in the county. He was born in 1800, he 1 w.w therefore 9* years of age. Ilis mind u was veiy clear and he rememl>ered inI?. - - I eidents connected with the Mexican war I of 1812. Ife retained conscience to the i- I*.** unrt vvas ?P the day before he died. 0 As stated lu^t week quite a number of 1 old vets from Un 'on attended the Cous federate Veterans' Ronton at Columbia. "I They report having had a' great time and ( say the people exerted themtnlves to the utmost to meet the demands of the uiiy expected large attendance of veterans, a We were not much off in our estimate u that this was going to be the largest y crowd ever seen at a reunion in this State. Itev. E. A. McDow tendered his P resignation as pastor of Duck Pond " church last Sunday. The conpregation accepted the resignation with much regret. Mr. McDow has been giving general satisfaction to the congregation and -d they regret to part with him. The \r resignation was occasioned by the incon>P venience of attending to this charge, 10 having to make a trip each time while ?r other work more advantageous and con?r venient had recently opened up. The nr congregation has called Rev. D. C. ?y Freeman who has accepted and will preach the 9nd Sunday in June. The Chief's Quick Work. A youug iniss came into 1he ( like Monday atteinon and asked tlio cost of inserting an advertisement, for lest property. Upon inquiry we learned she had just lost her gold watch and we coukl see the tears welling up iti her eyes as the told us ot her loss Our sympathy was at once aroused and recognizing that quick work was necessary in this cawe. We told her we would tee what con'. 1 be done. We immediately 'phoned to police headquarters and fortunately caught the chief, Mr. Israel, in and related 1110 circumstances to him, and then sent the young lady to tell him the particulars Chief Israel started out at once, and in half an hour handed the happy girl her watch. He, by hi-< prompt acnou, got iu inn piace ? nae piib i?)si the watch befote any one else had pas-ed along. Wo are in etd glad that the young lady had htr watch restored so soon. As to Fust Driving. Recently complaints have been coming to our ears legardiug the reckless driving alone the main tliroughfares of our town. We have said nothing al>oiit it its we weie in hopes the leports were exaggerated and that the occurrences were raie. Hut wo ate convinced that this tiling has gone t? the i*>int wiieie it is in c-iss<iy to call a halt before soin seiious ii'juiy is done to some one. 1. seems that the eastern portion of Main stieet is usually selected for this speeding cf teams. It must be remembered that, there are a great many chiidren on this street and others of the town and should one of them be run over and killed or mamed for life it would Ire poor consolation to hear expressions of regret. There is no need for fast driving 0:1 i he public streets of the town, and the quicker a stop is put to it the better. We holm it will not become necessary for us to say more along this line as we believe all that is necessary is to call the attention ot the city authorities to ttio evil, and they will take the proper step* to put a final stop to it.

Mr. Mack Gault, J). White and a number of others from hockhart Junction paid the river a pleasant visit with the flsh hook, seine and gun.

Last wtt k your correspondent attended the Reunion of the S. ('. Division U. O. Veterans in Columbia, and like all the others with whom he has talked, he is unable to find words to < xpuss his mat- i itude to the people or' that magnitieent city for the cot dial welcome and friendly entertainment extended him while in Colombia. Most of your readers t?w? doubtless sien accounts of the proceedings in tiic daily papers, ami as our spa te is too short to do justice to it we will have to con-| tent, ourselves with a brief account oL what, we saw HiaLbftMt JSfg^ ,), \ pa io? , |Tr?lx7fl<f^"'^P,'tHnbu'K and On r^kfo j I fpejitir'a. . Tfce tafiumla was that 5,000 E\-Conn-derat-e soldiers were In the city dining the leunion. To this you may ad I an innumerable liost of sons and daughters of the Confederacy, all of which went to make the r, union a success The veterans held their meetings in the city hall, an elegant budding! nicely arranged for the comfort o:; eventi ! ll lus.ind peisons at one time. li, is needhsa to say that every incti of room was occupied during each session of tlie convention, and at times it ran over w itii enthusiasm which was caught up by th> sons and daughters as w?:l as visitors ; wlioiilled the galleries to ovarii living. ! It has lieen your corresp indents good fortune to attend several Suite reunion occasions but none of them beat this either in point of numbers or decorum. Everything passed off quietly and the icikjm 3 nuu men nitrous never Will forget the oval ion they received at the hands of the Columbians during tlie reunion festivities. The speaking was : grand, the music excellent and tie* beauty ' of the fair sex who attended the mt tilings and took caro of the veterans was simply sublime. Grand old Columbia, rising from the ashes of an unholy vandalism she sets today queen among the American cities north as well as south I only re{>eat that which every veto-rap in that huge assembly of persons will beirme rait in when I say it was the grandest reunion ever held in this State. Of Columbia, we may say, "Many daughters have done nobly, hut tliou exeel lest them all." It was our good fortune to be assigned a home with Mayor Carle and his most excellent fao.ily where we v.eie entertained in the very best of style bv our geniri host ard bis m at accomplished wife. The Mayor is a young ui in and | one of tlie most progressive in our State or country. To occupy the position of Chief Magistrate of a city like Columbia is no small honor and I will say that in hotioiing him with the chief magistry t he city has honored herself. We had as our room mates G*n'l 11, 11. Hemphdl, of Abbeville, and Mr. C. Iv lldlp r\f 1 '.liiif.vn U.tli /?f u-linun paiiy wo enjojed very much Gon'l Hemphill is, and has been for a Ions: time, clerk of the Senate and through hiscomlecy we were shown throw the state House and introduced to All or roo-r. of the State r ili <.rs who were i:i at the time of our visit. General Hemphill is old, not in yeary, but in newsI taper work, and besides he is one of the Sta'es best infoi med citizens on any tiling pei tabling to lin ration or literary work. To show tiie kindness of Mayor Earlo towards the old Veterans and the respect he showed their) 1|0 said (jokingly) that he had issued orders to the {>ohoeinen that if one of them arrested an old soldier or gave him any troublo their jobs were up, and the result was there was not one anested, neither was tiiere. cause for it that we know of.
