?Read the election notice and you
will see the proposed Constitutional
amendment.

?Rabbit hunting is the chief amusement
of those people who are spor
tively inclined unu have not the selfcontrol
to restrain themselves until the
first of November.
?It is reported that streams all over
the county were very much swollen by
the hard rains Wednesday and that in
many places corn on bottom lands
was washed away.
?Two ne^roe* got into a difficulty
near Laudecker's bar on Monday afternoon.
One drew his pistol and the ;
other rati. The man who drew the j
weapon has been indicted. I
?The concensus of opinion at pres- j
sent among those who delight in the |
light fantastic scenes tends towards
getting up a grand fancy ball to take
place about New Year's Eve. A \
mask ball has some objectionable j
features about it. but whatever they j
may be certainly they cannot be urged J
against a fancy ball.
?At the last session of the General
Assembly Section 111 of the General
Statutes, relating to elections, was
amended as follows:
The polls shall be open at such voting
places as shall be designated at 7
o'clock in the forenoon and close at
| 4 O'clock in the afternoon of the day
i of the election, and shall be kept open {
during these hours without interims- j
sion or adjournment.
?It is generally conceded that FairfifM
held the best Institute in the State
last year. The fact that she von the J
county premium at the State Fair!
caused considerable comment all over j
the State. The premium this year is
$500, and it undoubtedly would be no
small advertisement to get it again, j
Our county can win, if she will only
try.
?The Ametuers have begun rehears- j
ing a new play, which they will pre- j
sent about the 20th of next month, j
This piece is entitled, "The Mariners j
Return.*' It is a comedy all the way !
through. There are several very J
strong parts in tiie piece, it wm ai- j
ford our ametuers an excellent opp#r- I
tunitv to make a liit. and give the'
public a chance of enjoyment that is
seldom offered in the Bero.
?In a few weeks a new drug store
will be opened. It will be known as
the "Winnsboro Drug Store., and will
be under the management of Mr.
Murray liobinson. The new store
will be opened in the store-room next

( Mr. J. B. Crosby. Mr. Robinson lias
for a considerable time had charge of
Messrs. MeMaster, Brice & Ketchin's
drug store, but resigned Ins position
on the 20th inst. so as to open as above
stated.
?Q. D. Williford & Co are now
busily rearranging their store. The
object of this change i< to have all
ladies' wear <>n otie side and gents' ou
the other. The right hand side will
. be devoted to ladies and the left to
gents' wear. This will in a irreat
measure avoid the usual confusion
resulting from having an indiscriminate
mixture of all kinds of goods,
and will also enable the clerks to be
_ more expeditious in their attendance.
I1*-. Everything is in splendid style.
?Messrs. McMaster, Br ice & Ketchin
have put up in their store one of the new
Star Cash lJailroads. It is a marvel of
ingenious simplicity. It has four
L tracks running to different parts of the
stores all meeting ar one central depot
where the cashier stands and
loads and unloads the different trains
I as they come in. and returns them with
the proper change. By this device
clerks without any trouble can have
sales registered and change made from
almost all parts of the large store,
fc Another advantage is that this cash
road brings the millinery and drug
v store into close communication as a
short connecting line runs into these
departments.
?Improbable as It mar appear it is
nevertheless true that during the rain
on "Wednesday a younir alligator descended
from the clouds. This startling
phenomenon is true beyond
peradventure and is vouched for by
reliable gentlemen who liad seen the
saurian. "We have often heard of
eats and but never before of an
alligator rain. Some of ilie wise people
nipy ^e disposed to doubt that this
gaiof descended from the heavens,
but ir *!e didn't come from there theu

I where did become from? The creature J
[ was found by Capt. Alexander while j
digging a post hole on the Gaither lot.
It was buried about one foot under
the ground and was stone blind. He|
must have descended from a prodig- j
ious height to have penetrated to such j
a depth in the solid earth. "\V'e suppose
that the shock hex-eceived whence
he came in contact with the earth
deprived the aerial visitor of sight.
It's a sad fate, but no more than could
be expected from such an indiscrete \
mode of traveling. The flying was
tine no doubt, but the lighting must
have been rather shocking.
Will AVoxdeks Xkvku Cease.?A
colored man in the lower section of
the county found a lanje snake in his
chicken house several weeks ago.
Upon examination he found that the
intruder had made a breakfast of a
j setting of eggs he had placed under
J one of his hens a few days beforo.
I He killed the reptile and replaced the
! ntrirz ill fllio timii llfltY'llPfl. but to
his surprise instead of chickens twelve
little snakes was the result of the incubation.
The most startling part of
the whole thing is that the little j
snakes were covered with feathers
ami had gills and combs closely resembling
those of the ordinary barn- i
yard fowl. "What will be the final
i end of this brood of cockatrices is
hard to say. i>ouie of the neighbors
: ought to advise the owner to go aud
; see Barnum: he will no doubt make a
fortune by their sale.
Skxv School Year.?As ihe beginning
t?f ihe uevr school year is close at
! hand (November 1), public school
trustees and patrons should be preparing
tor it. Trustees should get
from the School Commissioner estimates
of their apportionment of the
c/?K/\rwl fimrl mfPf >m<l riecidu on the
"v""v' ??*"'* ? " " "" . j
number of school* tliey will run,
where thev will be located, what sala-1
ries they will pay: in short, definitely !
and intelligently map out an educa-j
tional programme for the year. Then
let the patrons co-operate with and aid
these official* isi every way. The
school houses need making more comfortable
and being better supplied
with black-boards and uther apparatus.
Alter tluse things are all attended to, 1
then everybody g? down into their ,
pockets thi?; year of good crops and
supplement the public fund. If you j
have a three or four mouths free term.'
double if, or add at least two more to
it. Almost any community can do
this much for its children toward* an
education. Think about it and act
on it.
Recent Examinations.?School
Commissioner Duke informs us that
there were about twenty teachers'
certificates issued as the result of the
examination. There was some very
promising material among the applicants,
but quite a number failed to
make the grades thev expected. He
says in explanation of this that the
questions were more difficult than
Mm* nrpvinns ones, and that some of
them were very unusual and not found
in many of the ordinary school texts.
For instance, "Who was the dictator
of South Carolina?" and "Tell the
st< ry of Henry Laurens." Neither of
; the above is found in Barnes' or Swinj
ton's United States Histories nor in
I Davidson's History of South Carolina.
| J
I The whole Board unite in saying that
j the last several series of question*
I were not what they might have been,
j yet they are bound by them. The
j State Board of Education should en-j
| deavor to improve them.
Burned to Death. ?Ou Wednesday
I a little negro boy, seven or eitrht years
i old, was burned to death. The parties
j lived on the plantation ot Capt. II. A.
| Gaillard abont two miles from town,
j It seems that several small children
I were left under the care of an old
i woman while the parents went to the
l field to pick cotton. The old woman
| became weary of her charge, or for J
I some other reason left the house in j
j possession of the children. In her j
! absence the boy who was burned began |
; playing in the fire with a broom-sedge
| broom. The broom ignited nnd the
j child became frightened; his hand
i became tangled in the blazing broom,
i It is supposed that he fell and in fullj
ing in some way <jot the burning
j broou: under him. His clothe* werej
: nearly all burnt off on the trout of Ins j
body, and when found a short time
alter the accident he was dead. The
front part of the body was terribly
j burned. The children present could
j give no verv rational account of the I
I o
unfortunate affair.

THE FEASTEItYILLE DEMOCRATIC
CLUB.
The Feasterville club met Saturday
the 25th, at 3 o'clock p. m. There
was a good turnout notwithstanding
the unfavorable weather heretofore.
Several in this community contemplate
going to Winnsbor? Monday the
27 inst. to hear the speakers, the members
of this club concur with County
Chairman J. AV. Lyles in makiug an
effort to get good speakers for the
occasion. The' maioritv of the mem
bers of this club or I might say -with
but few exceptions, are strenuously
opposed to the Haskell movement.
"We feel that it is a duty incumbent on
every good Democrat to make an effort
to elect the regular nominee of the
Democratic party and thereby bury
forever Independentism and negro
rule in this grand old commonwealth.
This my fellow Democrats is the
sentiment of the honest yeomanary of
this section. Let us ever depend on
the grand old Democratic party for
preservation of our institutions and
the establishment of a more perfect
and complete system of government
by which all "will be benefited. "We
feel that it is useless to say no more at
this late day, but we sincerely hope
that on the 4th day of November,
every true Democrat will go to the
polls and support the nominee of the
regular Democratic party.
It is the will of this club that this be

Before closing I must say that your |
editorial in last week's itMic had the \
right tone.
Is the most ancient and moat general of all ^
diseases. Scarcely a family is entirely free
from it, while thousands everywhere are its I
suffering slaves. JTood's Sarsaprrilla has j
had remarkab'N . r.ccess in curing even- form
of scrofula. 'ilie most severe and painful
running sores, swellings In the neck or i
goitre, humor in the eyes, causing partial
or total blindness, yield to the powerful
effects o! this medicine. It thoroughly re- i
moves every impurity from the blood.
"My little daughter's life was saved, as
I we believe, by Hood's Sarsaparilla. Before
she was six months old she had 7 running
: scrofula sores. One physician advised the
amputation of one of her fingers, to whi-:h ;
! we refused assent. When we began giving \
i her Hood's Sarsaparilla, a, marked improve- j
i ment was noticed and by a continued use of it j
her recovery was complete. And she is now,
being seven years old, strong and healthy," i

A Scrap of Paper Saves Her Life.
It was just an ordinary scrap of wrapping
paper, but it saved her life. She was
in the lust stages of consumption, told by
physicians that she was incurable anil
could live only a short time: she weighed
less than seventy pounds. On a piece of
wrapping paper she read of Dr. King's
New Discovery, and got a sample bottle :
ic helped her, she bought a large bottle, it
helped hrr more, bought another and grew j
better fast, continued its use ami is now j
strong, healthy, rosy, plump, 140
pounds. For fulh;r*particularssend stump
