The business men of the community held a meeting a few days ago for the purpose of discussing the matter, and a committee was appointed to ascertain some suitable site for the school. The Ridgeway Land and Improvement Company have offered six acres, the Ivy Bill place with Us beautiful grove of oaks, and it is possible tiiat the negotiations will lead to the purchase of this property. It is likely that the town will issue bonds to a considerable amount. Those pushing the matter contemplate building a large building, securing an able corps of teachers and in troth Ridgeway is considering the prospects of having one of the very best High Schools in the State. It is thought it will have a military feature. The school will not be dependent upon the immtdiate locality for students. Ridgeway has in view bigger things than that. It expects the school to be attended by students from all over the State, and that it will be a real Hign School so that students may be prepared for college. It is suggested that accommodation! will be provided for 150 students at boarders.

The idea :.a unique. I intend to ha7e my little girl a "lovely" bicycli suit, cap included, and my little boy waists just as soon as our merchants offer the goods for sale.

Avgusta Chronicle, March Sf. 1 The sad news of the death of Mr, Edward S. Chandler yesterday morn ing, at his residence, 327 Walkei street, came as a sad shock to his manj friends. For, though he had been sick for the past two weeki, his malady was not thought to be anything dangerous. Sunday the attending physician was of the opinion that his recovery was but a matter of days, Tuesday night, however, a change foi the worst set in. Yesterday morning " it was seen by his anxious relatives ' that the end :vas near and, in a few ; hours, he passed peacefully to the . great world where all life's worries ? and turmoil have ceased. Mr. Chandler was a well-liked anc valued employe in the office of the r Charleston and Western Carolina, t< . which road he went when Mr. Scot' 5 left the Central to assume the posi tion as agent of the Charleston an( * Western Carolina.

Indeed, it is remarkable, for, generally speaking, we have through the greater part of Maich cold, blustering weather, and likewise in April. In fact, we [have known it often to be windy in ! April and showers in May. -'Cart be! fore the horse," to use the saying. The comparatively mild winter just parsed, and likewise mi.:d sprinsr, was I indeed favorable generally to the grain j crops, though the last bs-.rd freeze we j had sickened tbe oat crop ^especiauj ; on sandy soil) a good deal. It has recovered, however, and is now in a flourishing condition. Gardens also are ahead of last year, especially vegetables sown in the fall and winter. We noticed that Mr. J. P. Jones bad a flee crop of Irish potato plants about ten days sine?, and i sre now large enongh t? work. They were well sprouted- when planted. Who can.beat it? This can be done easily, aud without much trouble, if they are put ia a cellar and sprouted and then planted with care so as not j to distrub the long sprouts. Can Irish patotoes be bedded like sweet potatoes aad then transplanted? We should think so. Tomatoes always do better j sown in flower pots or Jboxes than in j rows or hot bed3; at least this has i been our past experience. TH-?wall wrifVl ! xaimers aic ncn um/ nnu their work in oar lection. They are pushing ahead with their usual Tim and energy and gODe to work, both white and colored, war or no war. We hardly think there will be war, for with snch terrible deadly weapons, rapid fire guns, etc., as there are now, it is a hard matter for nation* to jo to war with each ether, for one or the other will be whipped and in short order. It not only takes good, well drilled troops and armi, but a plenty of "wherewithal" to back it, and provisions. It will be bad for the Spaniards to undertake such a thing, for they are naturally treacherous, and will likely have trouble with us, then the Cubans, then the Phillipine Islandera, who are likely to bother "while the cat (Spanish) is away." We hate tn spft such tumult and a seige of u? rest existing between nations, bnt uch wi?l be the case to the end of time.

These remarks of comradeship made t by Major Woodward, on the occasion of the memorial meeting held by Camp Rains in honor of General John Bratton, were by the unanimous vote of the camp requested for publication: A great and good man has tallen. John Bratlon has crosied "the river . ? -x? a il. _i. _ jj_ ^ l in a is now resting uuuer toe suaucs 01 the trees beyond." It is appropriate that this people here assembled *h^nld thus publicly show respect lo i..a memory, and appreciation of his acts whilst be abode with us. It is peculiarly appropriate, grsnd old comrades, that we, his companions iu arms, now that the frosts of many winters have whitened our heads and drooping form* admonish us that we cannot mnch longer answer at roll call, should pay our tributes to his spleudid character as citizen and soldier, before we too shall be called upou to make footprints across the "dark valley." Descended from illustrious ancestry, who were valiant in war and distiuguished in peace, it is not remarkable that he was a born leader of men, and inherited those military instincts which contributed so largely to his success as a G?eral, and that at that final enactment in tke hlnndv ti-floredv at ADDOmattox made bim surrender th3 largest and best orsauized brigade in the army. Throughout those four years of unequal contest, the bloodiest and most unhallowed which was ever waged against the rights and liberties of any people, he was true and steadfast, never falteriDg, but ever treading the path of duty, ready stall times to strike in defense of his country's cause; and his name is now recorded in that grand gallery of distinguished men, the noblest, purest and best, wbich has adorned the annals of history anywhere, and it will descend until tbe Arch Angel shall summon time to eternity, a precious inheritance to his county and State. The youths ot the land have in mm an example or gentleman, patriot, soldier, worty of their most serious emulation, and we, his old coarade*, rejoice to know that it was our privilege to be associated with him. Bat General Bratton was also a statesman, broad and liberal io his views, honest and above the temptations of office, at all times guided by principle, and only consulting the good of his people, whom ha loved (especially the old soldiers) with the devotion of a father for his first-born. The great wisdom and foresight of the man shown in many of his epeechfs, and articles for the paper, now that we have seen the fulfillment of his predictions, strikes us like emanations from the prophets of old. Well would it have been for us old cemrades had we barkened to his counsels and heeded his warnings. It was my good fortune to know and be associated with him from our early youth.

No efforts were thtrefore necessary to bribg us together and make us friends through lifa. I think I knew him as well as anyone, and I state to you that in ray opinion no truer man, no purer patriot, no braver soldier ever lived. Gen. Brattou was a scholar,- no roan handled a pen with more ease and eloquence and no one dealt in purer, cleaner English; his style chaste, logical, convincing and free from bitterness.
