McCarley's residence is undergoing repairs, and will present quite a handsome appearance j when finished. ?About twelve bales of new cotton were sold here ^Saturday. If the fair weather continnes cotton will come in with a rush this week. ?Much to the regret of the clerks, and their employers, too, we dare say, the 1st of September has arrived and with it the end, for this season, of j . early closing of stores. ~?'J ?Bayers for Caldwell & Ruff are now in the northern markets selecting their fall and winter slocK. some \ new goods have already arrived and \jaq& ready tor inspection. \ ?The continued rainy weather is doing a great deal of damage to the cotton crop. It is almost impossible <. to do any pieklcg, and. consequeutly, the staple is coming into this market very slowly. The local athletes will probably organize a foot ball team for the ap?-* proaching season. The young gentlemen interested are already beginning to look around for material. There is an abundance of it in tins community, ,which will no doubt be developed. ?Q. D. Williford's space to-day is filled with an advertisement that ought to be interesting to ladies especially. He is advertising his entire stock of figured lawns at five cents per yard. Same quality sold formerly for ten, twelve and one-half, and fifteen cents. ?The excursion train which was to have left Winnsboro Saturday night for Charlotte didn't make the trip after all. The train came up here all right but the money for the use of the train j wasn't forthcoming, sod under the circumstances the railroad people wouldn't consent to run it. The promoters of the excursion had to pay the expenses incurred in making up the train and running it up to Winnsboro. CASTOHIA. Beare the j* The Kind Yon Haw Always Bought Sigratnre /7* 0?

Mr. Wardle found the office in first-class condition, and he remarked that if every postmaster iu South Car^ olina kuew his business as well as the postmaster .at Winnsboro, the service W in the State would be complete.

HE IS NOW A COLONEL. Aboat tcu or twelve years ago, possibly rot so long, the music for the swell balls in "Winnsboro was almost invariably furnished by the Charlotte Italian band. Ifc was a great aggregation of musicians, but tbe star performer was Jim Yong, a very portly colored gentleman who played the bass violin and sang out in inimitable ^tyle the figures tor the square dances. Jim wasa "peach" and unquestionably the most popnlar member of the band. It will probably J interest Jim'8 oia acquaintances here to know that he is now Lieut. Colonel of the 3rd N. C.,? a regiment made up and officered entirely by negroes. If Jim commands his troops with as much success as he directs the ilgures o? a qnadrille he will make a great record as a soldier.

Marion Mobley has secured about fortr-four recruits for the regi ment, and be took i-aost of them down with him Monday night. There is a bare possibility that, these recruits will not be needed as oj.-ders were issued a day or two ago to :*op recruiting. The companies in the regiment will be, so it is said, reduced to eighty men each. It is hoped, however, that the recruits fro Fairfield will be accepted as they ? -11 ?1.~ .i Tk Will an ^uuu suiuicis. jli ia pretty safe to say that tbese men will not sign any petition . to be mustered out before they see sonae service under the stars and stripes. A GREAT POEM. The following poem written by Rndvard Kipling at the time of Qaeen Victoria's Jubilee, and published first in the London Times, is regarded generally as the greatest poena of the century. Cut it out and parte it in your scrap-book: RECESSIOXAX. God ot our fathers, kno^i of oldLord of our far-flung battle lineBeneath Whose awful liand we hold Dominion over palm and pineLord God of Hosts, be with ur yet, Tipsf- wf> fnroret?we ioc^et! The tumult and. the shouting dies? The captains and the kings depart; Stiil stands Thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget?lest we forgei! Far-cal.ed our navies melt away? On dune and headland sinks the fire? Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh and Tyre! Judge of the nations, spare us yet, Lest we forget?lest we forget! If drunk with .sight of power, we loose Wild tonsires that have not Tbee> in aweSuch boasting as ihe Gentiles use Or Jeeser breeds without the law? Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget?lest we forget! For heathen heart thai: puts her trus*. In reeking tube und iron shard AH valiant dust that builds on dust, And guarding calls not Thee to guard? For frantic boast and foolish word, Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord! _ Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications as they can oof j reach the diseased portion of the ear. ; There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed c.onditiou of the raucous lining of t.be Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you Lave a rumbling-sound or imj^erfecc hearing, and when i-; is entirely closed, Deaf-1 ness is the result, and unless the in- j flammatiea can bs taken\out anri this ! inht? restored to its normal condition.! hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ren are caused by catarrh, -which is nothing: but an iuilamed condition of the mucous snr-1 faces. We will give One ILandred Dollars for anv case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circa-, lars: free. F. J.

I desire to thank, most heartily, those who voted for me for the office of Superintendent of Education; this vote was "Simon pure" and complimentary, if it was not very large. [ asked no one to promise me his vote. f nnlrn/1 pmaVi ofl mirrVir fao) arv rliQ. L KJLily CUVU c?o uiigu v luvi ?M? posed !o give me their' influence and support, bat exacted promises from no one. I should have been glad if more of the voters of the county had been of the same mind of those who voted for roe, but can truthfully say, that I am not grieving because I was not elected. In the second place, I want to ihank those who did not see cause to vote for me, that they voted for some one else; for if they for reasons satisfactory to themselves did not think it the proper thing to do, IheL I did not want them to vote for me. Yonrs respectfully, H. K. Ezell, INTERESTING TO CATTLE OWNERS. Mr W il. Flenmken received the following letter from Prof. liart, of Clemson College, in reply to an inquiry concerning the disease now p:ev<*lent among cstile in the county. It will doubtless b?i found very interesting to - ?- ?. ? ? /-. 4- st 4 4 I a j UWUCIJ* Oi V/rtiiit . \V. H. K'enniken, Winnsboro. S Dear Sir:?Dr. Wyinau has been away from here fur several months, anil Col. Xewmm has just now handed me yoor card of the 27th iost. for replv. The disease is possibly a type of malarial fever. I would advise removing the cattle from the place where they are affected. A shaded lot near too barr. will usually be a frnrkri ITpp/I on preen feed largely, so "hat the bowels are kept open; bat not too relaxed. See that they are well supplied with water and salt. Quinine is the best remedv that I know of. About GO grains tliree times a day is the dose for a cow. This given to healthy stock will ect as a preventive. If the urine is bloody, give from i to 1 oz. saltpetre three times a day along with the quinine. Dissolve both in water and drench. 'ULL VOTE. TE?THE VOTE TAB? LECTIO X NOTES. Tuesday's election in this county was in most cases fast a litie freeze oat game. The real fan is yet to come. Tb? candidates wbo are to be1 in the second primary will do some Jofiy hustling between now and the luib. All of the races on that day will from present indication? be close and ex citing. Tbe general opinion is-that Fealberstone will carry this couoty in the second race between Eilerbe and himself. The political prophets predict ibat after the secoud primary Ellerbe ill be a back number. Candidates will be more plentrtul than usual in the campaign of 1900. It is said that already twenty-?even men have announced in an informal sort of way their intention to become candidates for the place of a countv officer whose term expires two yeats UClJVO? The defeated candidates seem to be accepting the situation [gracefully and philosophically. "This isn't the last election to be held," they say, "(here are others." ei <N x 6 o ; . . f B s ! ? { 5 . . s S i >g?='SSj.SK . ?*3 2 CD JO O S ??2^^^.s.5 3 -5 3?es>?o???2H :6 3S 27 32 0 24 32 40 Co 685 G 2i 12 4 16 11 95 7 10 609 431321224 '51 3 10 4 10 1 0 31 8 34 376 ;0 33 12 21 11 23 117 38 57 961 6 16 23 -19 1. 13 ,19 2lJ db 711 0" 4S 24 13 7 8 33 10 12 292 6 20 22 33 3 2 37 19 30 494 !S 21 19 7 16 32 67 15 25 558 0 34 16 8 15 30 80 27 38 613 5 40 6 2 10 2 46 7 9 255 5 8 23 25 t 26 51 29 21 692 2 9 11 11 0 5 17 12 45 301 5 0 1 1 8 3 13 1 4 103 5 41 28 23 12 22 70 $3 55 635 521603333 116 7 TO 15 10 6 11 56 8 21 <300 0 10 4 3 0 0 27 9 33 363 5 47 37 31 14 36 71 33 29 5a0 2 5 0 5 4 0 30 7 18 439 0 1 0 13 0 0 5 13 20 217 0 43 23 2 7 22 16 4 6 270 1 10 15 9 2 7 44 22 8 292 01 15 32 47 60 97 4004 002 35 163 0 7 2 2 5 1 9 1 27 166 2 v, 040350 14 143 4 16 4 18 6 1 49 27 45 499 0 43 35 15 7 35 60 21 12 545 2 2 2 6 5 0 19 1 20 300 Where there is constipation, give one pound epBOm salts and two ounce? giDgerin a qaart of warm water.

Seventy-four years ago I heard a prophesy or a prediction uiaile by Marquis de Lafayette, when he visited Richmond, Va., in 1813. lie bad to land at Yorkville and I will not attempt to describe the splendid military display in sending to meet him, the splendid barouch and four magnificent horfcas glittering with silver. At the edge of town they formed the grand procession. First came the general and his suite, snrronnded by the cav~tVin "Ri^TimnnH "RlnPR *11^5 UtAfc VUV AWiVMi? company and a brag band of twentythree pieces, then the artillery, and then every prominent citizen joined in the procession. The main street of Richmond had a gradual rise, so that you could see plainly from Market street op as high as the Virginia Bank on one side and tha penitentiary store on the other. This 3lreet led to the Capitol Square. Eyery door and window was crowded; nothing was heard bat "Welcome, Lafayette! Welcome, .Lafayette I" xne general was suuu landed at tbe Eagle hotel. That night they had a magnificent ball at the Eagle in his honor, and fireworks on the CapUol Square such as [ never saw before. Next day the Capitol Sqaare was crowded again, everybody wanted to shake hands with the general. The Union Sunday School pupils (not many in number) were drawn up on one side; I was in tbe Hue standing about eighth from head, the general was announced, making some pleasant remark; as b? riiuok hands with each one, he t a, eayiDg that we should never forget those who had fought and bled to give us such a republic, a republic that is destined to be one r>f the grandest in the world. He was holding my band a?- the last expressionone of the grandest in the world. Seventy-four years of my life have passed and I have lived to see the prediction fulfilled; for the United Slates now stands unrivaled iu the world in size, strength and power. Buckheid, S. C. Mis.

Nowhere else 1 will ever be "home" to me. The place of one's birth and childhood associations is inseparably linked with all lhat goes to make up one's life. To me the bond ot native land seems like that of father or mother.

' Bnt my associations in Fairfield have 1 been confined for the most part to a ' small section between Feasterville and t Monticello. To the great majority of/ the citizeus of my native county I am\1 not known personally. They know nothing of my C3untv pride and loyalty, or of my high purpose to use the office of Superintendent" of Education for the betterment of life in the country. Their almost unanimous support of me is the more complimentary and toucnes nny ncarc an uie mure, conquering how imperfectly they fcnow me. I assure thsm of my appreciation of their confidence and I pledze myself to deserve it. I have promised that my election shall mean better cocntry schools in Soutii Caroliiia. If I fail to fulfill my promise, I shall be worse disappointed than i hose that have supported me; for I recognize that success ia the work that I have outlined lor myself will earn me tbe love and gtfitiiude of my fellow-citizecs?the hpvf thin or a man can strive for next to ! th* approval of God. I urge my friends and county men to go to the polls on tbe 13th a-d fi'l , to overflowing my cup of gratitude by i giving me a rousing vote. Respectfully, John J. ^IcMahan.
