FXCUESIO-V TO TtOCK CITY.
"\\"e arc authorized by the polite

Mr. A. "\V. St Amand, and Ma j. "Woodward
to extend an invitation to the
people of "Winnsboro to visit the
quarries some day after the second
Saturday in May, the day to be fixed
by those invited. If notice is given in ,
time thes-i! irentlemen will endeavor to i
arrange for an engine anil coach to j
leave town in the morning, take the
excursionists to the quarries and .bring
them buck in the afternoon. Xo fare
will be charged. This will be a splendid
onnortunitv for the town to have
an oft' (lav and picnic and there is no
better place than Iiock City for such
an occasion.
It is a strange fact that so many of
our town's people know nothing- of
the largest enterprise in the county.
It is well worth the trip to learn something
of what is going 011 almost in
our midst?to sec how easily the hardest
granite is split into pieces of various
sizes by a few strokes with a clumsev
hammer in the hands of the skillful
workmen. I11 order to organize for
the trip those wishing to make it are ;
requested lo leave their names at Tin: |

have kindly proposed the excursion
and the details will be arranged and
notice given through these columns.
When you send in your name mention
your choice of the day so that the
most convenient time may be selected.
A committee of chaperons will be selected
from those wishing to go so
that there need be no hesitation in accepting
the invitation.
What It Costs
Must be carefully considered by the

great majority uj. jjcupir, m. ??;
even necessities of life. Ilaod's Sarsaparilla
commends iteelf with special
force to the great middle classes, because
it combines positive economy

only medicine of which can truly be
said''100 Doses One Dollar," and a

will average to last a month. *

THE CROSSIXG AT BEATER CREEK.
Messrs. Editors: Some complaint
has again been made through your
rmnrM- as to the condition of the crosi
l'?i ? --
ing of Beaver Creek. I examined it
to-day and have made arrangements to
have it leveled down, so Messrs.
County Commissioners, you need not
further trouble yourselves.
While the crossing was not :;ood it
was not extremely bad, requiring only
a little judicious driving to straddle
the rut. If the writer will take his
buggy and aiart where the Shelton
depot and ferry road leaves the Columbia
road and drive to the depot and
then to the ferrv r.:: J return and is not
shaken cut :.:5 sock?, something will
be the mailer.
Wo have an excellent Board of
County Commissioners but they can
not make everything right in a winters
time. Betwccu now and the
first of next November wc shall see
the public roads in a good condition;
so people cannot only go to Rock
Creek Church, but will find no trouble
in travelling to the county seat.
Dry weather continues. Cctfon and
corn planted roughly, and no possible
chance of a stand of either until we
have a good rain. Some land yet unprepared,
but the people seem deterfn
mfikft cotton :is though it
would bring a fair price.

Wc had quite a lln>h of honored and
noted visitors to our $::;te last week.
President Harrison, on his tour to the
South West, stopped over in Little
Rock on the 17th and visited the c.ipitol
and other public buildings, :di of J
which were beautifully decora!ed in ]
honor of his visit, afier which he do-1 <
livered a short address to an immense
throng of people who had gathered
there to see him. In his address the
President paid the people of Arkansas
some very flattering compliment?, and
expressed his high appreciation of the
rova' reception tendered him by the
citizens of Little itoeK in ::n elegant
and impressive' mam-cr.
Jay Gould with hi* two sons and
senrai prominent raiiio^j officials
were out last week looking aires* his
railroads, of which he ii:ts a .-c:?:v in
this part of the country. On Ms te I
turn trip he parsed through < nr town

levees on this side proved sufficient to j
keep the water back, and now all dan* [
ger is over as the river is filling very?
rapidly.
The weaiher since the lirst of March I
has boon qnite favorable to farming,!
and work in that line is well advanced. I
A good deal of the corn has been j
worked out, and some have cotton i i
ready for chopping. The corn crop j '
was very short here last year, and at 2
least three-fifths of the corn now being :
used by the farmers in this section is ! <
brought from Kansas and Missouri, j 1
and costs the consumer from 90c to j ]
SI per bushel cash. This has caused a i j
rustling among the dry bones and the j
acreage in corn this year will be i< ore
than doub'e what it was last. ]
The fruit crop though slightly i;:- J
iured bv late frosts, will be very irood, J
especially the apple and berry crop, j,
which promise to be abundant.
Oar part of the country is now en-! ]
joying a season of unusual good health, ]
so much so that our doctors are com- 1
plaining of its being distressingly
healthy.
If any of Ihe Fairfield boys want to
have a real good time sporting during .
the dull summer season, come out here
and you can have it. There is an
abundance of small game in the woods
right near our town and just five miles
cast Is i?eoii Kiver swamp, a wi;-1
derucss twelve miles wide ami extending
north and *outh lo:* hundreds of
mile?. In this swamp there are bears,
panther?, deer, wild hog.-, wild cats,
cats, and a great variety of other game ;
for the adventurous hunter. Fish are !
very plentiful in the bayous and j
sloughs at this season of the year, an?l |
there are a number of Joveiy hikes j
near by where fishing is elegant all ;
