"SQUARE MEN AND ROUND MEN."
A speech made recently at tl*e
"Sandy Creek Association1' by
the Rev. J. W. Little, formerly
ot Lancaster, but now prenchine
atSanford,N. C., is attracting
no little attention. Mr. Little
made a unique division of mankind
into two classes, the "square
men and the round men." The
square man, he said, stands
four f-quare. Ho has tour corners.
You know which way he
faces. If he means you, you
know it. There is nothing
sneaking or backhanded about 1
him. Not everv one comes (ilmiu I
can turn him.
' The round man any one can
roil over, lie faee< in all direc
tions. Lie will not tell you what ,
he thinks. II he wishes u> sav
evil of you, l o will not say i<
out. but will insinuate it. He is
on nobod.v's side and yet every- '
body's."
The newspapers commenting
on Mr. Little's remarks heartily
endorse his original views as to
man. The Greenwood Journal, (
for example, says that he 'comes
a- near expressing our ideas 01
what a man should he as anything
we have ever seen." I he
Journal adds that Mr. Little him-j
self is a "square man," and from
our knowledge of the zealous'
and indefatigable evangehs', we
are .prepared to endorse our es
teemed contemporary's el as dtieation
of him. There's nothing lit!1
tie about Kvangelist Litle except,
possibly, his name. He i? :
a man of striking originality and
possesses in a marked degree the
power to bring men to a realiza-i
t'.on of their sinful ways. lie*
has accomplished untold good
throughout this country and we:
trust that he may be blessed with
health and strength to continue
his useful work for many years to

A FINE THIP IN STOHEFOU US
The e?litor of the Lancaster;
News thinks lie has taken a tail
out ol Ito^k Mill He take* occa
sion in Ins last issue to call our ;
street railway car "something1,
with a mule at one end of if and
a nigger at the oilier." Brother
Connors is pretty near riahtl
about this; but he would be sur
prised to know how very near
Rock Hill is to building an elec-'
trie toau. lie < light to com ? over
>cCHsiotiiilly and are what . ? very ,
live city we have here?houses!
going up ?11 over the place, etc.
We might a'so add that Brother
Connors could see one of those ,
"peek a boo" waists if he would
put his bashfulness awav from
him and come over here once in
a while.?Rock Hill Record.
The editor of The News will
adopt the kindly suggestion of j
the esteemed Record. At the
very first opportunity we shall |
.ro over and take a peep at Rock j
Hill's peek-a-boos and other attractions.
We shall, of course,
as advised, put our k'bashfulness"
in cold storage before leaving
Lancaster. By the wav, does the
Rock Hill peek-i-boo make a
noise like an angel in tly time ?
The News and Courier is making
a noise nowadays like two
new boards ot lite insurance trustees.
The steamer Wittlekind,laden
with immigrants for South Carolina,
is expected to arrive inCharleston
in a few days. There are
a u 1 t a Ka f ? i- iyi ere nwnli/ionin C /\
ouiu iv ij\j Kit iiiu?r a|;|'iiv.ain a iui
immigrants than the number
aboard the ship.
The man who during these
wituly days can view his hat ai it
goes bounding across the dusty
street wi'.hout sending after it a
red-hot discharge of blankety
blank blanks possesses a brand
of religion of which our "devil"
is anxious to secure the seed.
It is stated that Editor Liris
b*ne, of Hearst's New York papers,
gets a salary of a thousand
dollars a week. The Anderson

The Augusta Chronicle of last
Friday contains a highly com
plimenlary notice ot Ac'or
Charles M. Se ay?speaks ol hi-!
enviable record as a comedian?
'no liner in New York than Mr.
Seay"?mentions tbe various i
plays in which he has taken h ad- j
ing parts, says 'die is, although
only a little over 30 years of age, |
a veteran, in all but years,of the I
American stage, and it is doubtful
if the English stage can produce
his superior," and yet,
strange to relate, our esteemed
Georgia contemporary does not
once allude to the fact that Mr.
Seav is a Georgian !
President Harvey Jordan, ot '
the Southern Cotton Growers'
Association, is by no means dis- i
couraged by the recent decline!
in the price of cotton. lie expects
very much better pricei
later on. In a late statement
issued by him to the farmers lie| -j?
says: 4,lf thev will only sell
their cotton slowly and check up
the present heav\ r< ceipts at the
ports very high prices can be
easily maintained. liigh prices
are bound to follow in the wake
of a full real zi'ion of the short
ness of this crop as compared
with expectations two months
ago." President Smith of the
State Absociat on. give* the farmers
pracli. a?ly tho same advice.
In a publish d interview this
week lie urge* ilie larmers not
to tlwow :li ir co lon on the market.
General complaint is being
made against the present railroad
service, belated trains being
a daily occur:ence, greatly incoiivenienciig
the traveling public
and causing vexatious delay
in the delivery ol mails. Even
the Southern's faithful old ''Short
Dog,'' as its early morning train
going 3' u'h by Lancaster is call
ed, which up to a short lime ago
was remarkable for the rerrulari
tj ot its habits, has caught the
contagion of running behind
schedule time. The machinists'
strike ou the Southern is given
as the reason for the irregular
operation of the system's trains,
but whatever the cause the public
is being made to suffer no little.
