Corruption ^eems inherent in the
dispensary sy^-em. From its very incipiency,
it has been charged that
wrong doing was goicg on, and now
and then some evidence ot corruption
comes to lig :t. The latest thing is
that when contraband liquors are
seized, they are net sent to the proper
authorities and disposed of according
to law. It is generally known that
Beckroge br >ngJ-T suit against the
constables to recover damages for
wiues, liquors, ?&c., that he had
sent to Charleston for his wedding.
ZS'ow Uischirged 'i:;:t shoes, cigars,<fcc ,
were appropriated by somebody. Col.
Wylie Jones, Ci <iruian of tbe State

a^kcf.: What became of the trunk?
V.'he 3 are the cigars? Where are tLe
shoe?!' 'Who has the ihinss and what
has bo en done- with them? And if
tsese thing* have been misappropriated,
how many other things seized
h*ve gone the ?ame way?
Governor Ellerbe is said to be "hot
about it." and it ought to make him

It is one of the remakable things of
the "ge thit the Christiau people are
sending missionaries to heathen countries
that the world may be Christianized,
und yet the Christian powers of
Europe aided thj Turks in their outrages
on the Armenians, and are now
on the si<-e of tbe Turks in their war
against the Christians of Crete and
Ci":cce. The iaws of the Christian
woi !i are the outgrowth of the teachings
t?f i':;e iloiy Bible, and yet it is
an r.i v;ai iaw which permits the
suufition in Europe.

; popular young people plight their
j troth. Long ere the time for the cerej
mony the church was filled and many
had to stand. To attempt to describe
the beautiful way in which the church
j was decorated would be quite a ta-k.
i The pulpit had been moved and a *tage
I built where it stood. Opening on
were three doors. These were covj

j centre door was the organ. A beauti!

Promptly at 9 p. m. Mrs. Blair com!

flower girl and page respectively,
came up the aisles. The bride with
her maid of honor, Miss Mattic Parker,
camc up the left aisle, while the groom
with his best man, Mr. A. M. Boiick,
came up the right aisle. Oj rescbiug

Rev. Jabez Ferris then w? ni upon the

was played and tho couples marched
out in reversed orde.
After tbe ceiemoay a reception wa;held
at Mr. Jas. Cole aaj's, a: Vvhich
the relatives, attendants and several
friends were present.
The brick work 011 ibe new store
being built by C. P. Wray & Co. is
finished. The wood work and paint
rre now being pushed and in a few
weeks wid be ready to be occupied.
The ball over this store ui'! be used as
a town haM.
Messrs. Lipscomb & Smiili are also
hurrying the work on their new store.
This is to b3 76 feet long and 25 feet
wide.
It is very probable that in the very
near future we shall have several more
new stores. These must necessarily
be built of brisk as the town prohibits
any building being built on the main I
street unless it is tire proof.

! TRADE VS. MACADAMIZED ROADS AND
fOTTDV WETRHIXG.
Ifr. Editor: I am glad to see some
signs of progress in at least one section
of our county, viz., the completion
of a telephone line from Mr.
H. S. Wvlie's to Winusboro. I hope
to live to see every section of our
county unit-id by macadamized roads
and telephones. Novr, Hugh, get your
roads turnpiked or macadamized, ard
iu live years you will more than double
the value of vour lands. Why are we
putting off a duty that every one sees
and knows will have to be done? Oar
!roads have been, and are now, id
| places impassable, either walking,
riding or driviDg. You could not
even slide over tbein. I venture to
?ay that they are worse than our oidest
citizens have ever seen them, and we
' - - * PKq r>o*p
Dave got 10 cave a cuuug
our system of working. Change in
many places our road beds, and what
better time than this summer to begin.
If our people are not ready now to go
at it in earnest, (hey never will. They
can't go to church on account of the
roads; they can't come to town to pay
for goods bought last year, much less
to buy more. Once get them started
and we shall have no trouble. Can't
we have a mass meeting this summer
(there is no political meetings to go to
and we can't well get along without
souie sort of a meeting) and agitate
the matter? Can't initial steps be
taken in the matter by some publicsp'ritcd
citizen of Winnsboro? I do
not know any one that should feel a
deeper interest in this matter than her
citizens, for impassable roads is one of
the evils that is sapping the very lifeblood
of her trade and prosperity.
'Tis difficult to say which is the greater
- ' *' 1 - -1 I
oi trie two evus, Dau ruaus ui wc ostein
of weighing cotton. I don't know
where the trouble lies, or who, if any
one, is to blatne for this evil, but I do
know, that it has been a "bone of contention"
for at least ten years, and a
great many of our farmers have sought
relief by going elsewhere to sell their
cotton, and uure will follow their example
if it is not remedied. Xow if
more platform room is necessary, it
does seem that our towu could better J
afford to supply it tha-i to lose the
trade that is driven away by not having
it, or possibly ihe railroad, if properly
approached, would do something in
the matter.
Now, Mr. .Editor, these are vital
questions to my mind that we as a1
town an^ county have to meet and
solve, or, a? I hinted above, they will j
gradually but just as surely solve
t lemselves, and when too late we will
find our people trading and enrichi-'g
our sister towns and counties at the
expense of their own. If any one
doubts these facts let them go to either
(..'olumbia or Chester and they will
doubt no more.
Chester is now on the eve of an election
to decide the question of eiectric
! .ights and water works. What is
i n
! Winnsboro doing? I leave the future
! to answer, aud if in order, "move
that some steps be immediately laken
j by the interested ones of our town and
j couuly to remedy the evils above
I mentioned." Alpha No. 2.

Rev. \V. D. Knox, a native of
Cuba, is spending some time io our
section. He left his home in the
province of Santa Cuba about nine
weeks ago. He landed in Charleston
and traveled from there through the
country, comiug through tbe counties
of Berkley, Charleston, Sumter aud
Kershaw. He reached this section on
the 18th inst. Mr. Knox was a member
of tbe Roman Catholic Church
until the carrying of the Bible to
Cuba by Diaz, the great Baptist divine.
After hearing Diaz preach
several times he became converted
aud united himself with the Baptist
Church. He has preached several exsftrmnns
at the Chanel, and
will preach again to-night and tomorrow
night. Everybody is well
pleased with him. He certainly deserves
the sympathy of all. Besides
being a persecuted Christian he is a
paralytic. It is very interesting to
bear him talk of Cuba, of her beauty,
aud of her fertility, and of the many
tropical fruits and flowers that abound
there. IIo^v pleasant it is to listen
and learn of the beauties of the Queen
of the Antilles. But how sad it is to
hear him tell of the cruel war that is
now devastating this b autiful land.
The barbarity and inhumanity of the
I Snaniards is shockusr: indeed it
sounds like some tale of the Dark
Ages instead of belonging to the nineteenth
century. And then to think
that this is going on nt our very doors;
at the doors of a nation who h*a? felt
the iron heel of oppression and tyrany
more thin once; and yet sne
siauds idly by and permits it to be
carried on.
Miss Alice Meilichamp, of Columbia,
is ^pending ( otne time ain^ng
relatives and friends in this section.
Mrs. M. E. Kennedy, from the vi
cinity of ^mpsuu's, is spending sorue
time at Strottier Tidwc 1'?.
Miss Annie Dent, of Columbia, who
has been visitiug in this seciion, has
returned home.
The most of the cotton crop has
been planted in and around here.
Some of it is coming up. Aiarch corn is
now being hoed and thinned out preparatory
to ploughing. The stand is,
generally speaking, very good. Gar
dens are looking well.

Messrs. Stewart and Seller dit- j
played much talent in their musical |;
display. In imaginary possession?,
Messrs. Pnmkin and Clodpole didn't
seem to agree, and during their war
of words came eventually a war of
blows, which, to use the phrase,
"brought down the house." It was
indeed amusing.
In the "Railroad Nature," it was
indeed quite a trying task, for Hesitation
to converse with his neighbor,
Mr. Fogg, especially as he was "still
of hearing." But the latter gentle
man wanted to be sure, aud this Hesitation
couldu't help himself.
In tableau, "Aunt Eliza's Last
Chance," the old lady seemed quite j
pleased, and the old gentleman (Mr. j j
Ebenezer) seemed anxious to know t
about his future chances and prospects.
In "Hot Weather," Daddy WathersDonant
Uncle Lonikinbotham struck
a'hot wave, or rather it struck tbcm, v
and imagine how they must have sn:- c
fered and had a melting time, having a
rough time with tteir ice factory. {
We hope they may Lever experience >
such a time again.
In dialogue "Not One There/' the j
fasilade of Dutch and Irish was very j
amusing, and excitement ran high, so ^
much so that the lawyer and marshal "
failed in their efforts to quiet things. ; j'
"Three Scenes in Mr. and Mrs.
Bradley's Married Life" was indeed !
stirring, and was well acted in every ^
way.
The sum of $2 55 was realized for
