Lancaster is by no means dis
turbed by the eilorts being madi
by Kershaw county to claim tin
town of Kershaw. The people ii
the disputed territory are pay
ing their taxes in Lancaster a:
usual, and they will no doub
continue to do so until the lin<
between the two counties shall b<
definitely located by authority
of law.

CHRISTMAS OBSERVANCE.
The minds of both young and ole
are now turned toward Christinas
which is less than two weeks off
Many are the plans being laid
for its celebration. The children
are thinking about Santa Clans
stuffed stockings and tries laden
.yitil toys and candy, while theii
ders are seeing-visions of elab
" leasts, social gatherings
fgs and so on. Some ol
re keeping 111 view the
