?A cordis! invitation is extended
. to all to the closing, exercises of Morgantown
school on Saturday, Jeds,
4th. The exercises will consist of an
address or two after which will be a
basket picknic.
?A telegram was received in
Winnsbore on Tuesday saying that
Sampson had demolished the Spanish
fleet; bat unfortanately the news was
not confirmed. Such news was expected,
and a great deal of rejoicing
followed its receipt.
?Local news was unusually scarce
on Monday. Everybody was rejoiced
to know that Schley had really seen
the Spanish flset in the harbor of
E Santiago, and bad it bottled up.
I People on the streets were so much
interested in this that it was hard to
[* pnli news ont of them.
4T ?It was reported in Winnsboro on
Friday that Dr. F. D. Kendell, of Colombia,
had smallpox. Dr. Kendell
is the physician who said the disease
which is- prevailing in Colombia is
nothing more than chickenpox. So
wepresnmehe would pronounce bis
own case chickenpox.
?The telephone exchange started
regularly te work on last Wednesday,
and while we are generally careful not
to give free advertisement to such
concerns, this being in the nature of a
quasi public enteiprise we do not
hesitate to say that it is a very satis*
factory system. The work has been'
* *; well done, and tfce 'pnones are vary
atisfftctory.
?Tin picnic which was to hare
been given at Lebanon school honae
, has been indefinitely postponed. A
number of candidates had been invited,
and we know they will be sorely disl^,
appointed. There is so ranch smallpox
in the State that those in charge
of the picnic thought ic would be beat
not to have so many people congregate
just at this lime.
?Toe telephone calls will be answered
any hour of the night in case of
extreme emergencies, such as calls for
^ a physician, and on Sundays in like
| circumstances. Uentrai office nu a
[) night bell which continue* to ring I
until a response is made. Subscribers
are not expected' to make calif on
Sunday or at night after ten o'clock,
except for the purposes just mentioned.
-It ii remarkable into what general
trte telephones are becoming. It is
k not nt all improbable that country
f* neighborhoods will be connected with
each other and (with the towns. We
mentioned a few weeks ago that the
line to Mr. Hngh Wylie's would be
extended to Mr. T. L. Lohnson's.
This has been done, and now Mr.
Jobaston is in communication with
Winnsboro and Chester and all inter(mediate
points.
?It has been curreitly reported on
tbe streets bere that, F. E. Hinnant ot
Ridgaway i<? making an effort to get
np a sompauy to go to Cuba. Mr.
Hinnant is a graduate of tbe Citadel
Academy and is now principal of tbe
? Ridgeway High School. It is said
that a great many young men at
fifcf Ridgewav and in tbe surrounding
country have been anxious to go to
p ibe front. It would be gratifying if
Fairfield should succeed in sending a
company. Ii is true that tbe couuty is
rtpre^en.ea m companies zrom omer
counties, oat a distinct Fairfield com^
pany would be better.

Winnsboro, reaching here ?n Wednesday

A. negro woman succeeded io running

but none of the officers could find
her. and it is supposed that she skipped.

by a policem&n that he could not
sell shoes here. He went on to Blackstock,
and came back on the night
train. He got off the train at the
freight depot, but he has not been
found by the officers.
In this connection, it may! be added
that in case a pest house i* needed, it
will be built at the park.

a good suggestion
Mr. Editor: As there hare been a
joodly number of Fairfield'* >onng
men ^enlisted in different companies
tor the Spanish war, and no separate
jompany has yet been formed from
this county, of which a roll will be
presenred, it strikes me that it would
be * good plan to have a record of all
srho have 'gone, and may yet go in
>ther companies, filed in the,court
a?u3e. The matter was suggested to
me a few days ago by an old Confederate
Veteran, and I now make
this proposition, as the clerk's office
is an office of records anyway. I will
take pleas ure in procuring a book ier
the purpose, and enter every name
furnished me by the friends of the
young men who have gone or may
yet go, and file the book (in this office
for inspection by the public as other
records are filed.
If our people fall in with this idea,
let them furnish the sames of their
sons, brothers or wards, with the
company in wkich they enlisted, the
captain's name, and the arm of service,
whether infantry, artillery, cavalry or
navy, engineer corps, etc.
Very respectfully,
R. H. Jenniog3.

Mr. Editor'. There being a slighi
error in your issue of to-day in regaic
to the burial of Capt. James Mann
with yonr permiwion I offer for pub
licationtbe following:
Capt, James Mann was born ii
Fairfield County, S. [C., September
6th, 1811. He commanded for a nam
berof years the militia company a
Horeb under the old regime, anc
hence his title as captain. He wai
mftrrtftd nn thft 3rd of Jnlv. 1845, t<
Miss Mary Ann Friday," who wai
truly a help-meet for him. Thej
lived happily together for nearly fifty
three years, she preceding him to th<
spirit land about two months. The]
were both buried at Bethel Chord
and not at Horeb. They had tbrei
sons, David N., now living at Reddick
Florida, Thomas F., who died severa
years *ince, and Samuel Laurence
now living on the old homestead.
Capt. Mann and his wife were botl
members of Horeb Presbyteriai
Church for many years. The write
well remembers when be was a bo;

Those were the days when Mr. Hay

This old conple, wbo bare s

According to a celebrated anatomist
there are upwards of 5,000,000 little
glands in the human stomach. These
glands pour out the digestive juices
which dissolve or digest the food. Indigestion
is wane of juice, weakness
of glands, need of help to reslore the
health of these organs. The best and
most natural help is that given by Shaker
Digestive Cordial. Natnral, because
it supplies the materials needed
'by the glands to prepare the digestive
juices. Because it strengthens and
invigorates tbe glands and the stomach,
until they are able to do their work
alone. Sh&ker Digestive Cordial cures
rflrtairilv and Dermanentlv.
it does so by natural means, and
therein lies the secret of its wonderful
and unvaried success.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
Tbere is only one way to cure Deafness.
and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness i3 caused by an
inflaiLvid condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and nnles the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube be
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever, nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is no'hing: but an inflamed condition
of tumcous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured br
