C. & road run a train from , Abbeville to Elberton last Friday on a general inspection tour. He left here about nine o'clock and returned about four o'clock in the Rflprnoon. Mr. B. K. Beach am of our town wan lnvii-j ed to no nlong, and consequently was the j first citizen to visit Elberton by way of the | new road. Mr. Bcacham reports great activi-1 ty all along the line In putting the track In I readiness for the regular trains, which will! he put 011 the road next Monday. The track , is In tine condition, and the rouuh or boggy . places have been made smooth and solid. i Mr. Beacham says Elherton is a live place, full O' busy people, ull of whom were delighted with the building of the ir. w. v. unnaBcaies and Mrs. Huttle Lyon. Mr. and Mn. John L. Wells, from Mt. Carmel, were chopping In town lust week. Nearly all or our stores closed last Monday at 6 o'clock, and will continue until first 01 September, Saturdays excepted. Last Thursday night Mr. and Mrs. W.O. Cromer gave a delightful sociable, In compliment to two young ladies from Florida, who are visiting in tliut community, l^ulte a number of our town loik attended und expressed themselves as being most hospitably entertained, and as having a pleasant evening. Mrs. W? H. Barinore, of Wllliarrston. Is visIting her sister, Mrs. Gambrell. The first freight to Elberton over the G. C. & S. Road was two cars on May 1st. The first pas>euger train will run to Elberton next Monday alternoon, 11th May. The U. C. * N. will make connection on the 11th May, at Monroo, with the Carolina Central for WilmiDgton and the mountains, leaving Abbeville about 8 o'clock, a. m., and arrive at Wilmington 6 p. m., same day. Mrs. Kate Hammond, who bag been quite slok, is now better. Mr. Tom Coogler Is up again and at his place of business. The.new uniform received by the Abbeville Rifles' is quite handsome. Mrs. Annie Neuffer, Jones F. Miller, Frank Evans and Arthur Syfan were received into full membership in the Methodist church last Sunday morning. The Ladles'Parsonage Aid Society, of the M. E.

Powell and Paschal, of the Valley Town, were In the city yesterday on Important business Our post office Is being enlarged, and a large number of lock boxes putin. It looks quite city-like. MISSIONARY COLD OR MISSIONARY HOTA Reformed Cannibal at I.nrge in South Carsllas. Among the notable pcrsonges who got on iiic uauj at wuc ui uic mu nuuiwun an wc ieturned from Georgetown lout Friday was the alleged Fiji Islander whose presence recently.stampeded a colored school In Charleston. Whether he ever diued on Missionary or not, and whether ho ever ate ot the body of any other kind of person, we are unable to say; but we feel perfectly wife in assuring him that he stands In no earihely danger of being eaten by anybody In this country. In comparison with I'rof. Charvron, Dave Parker of our town, on a lantastlc parade of Invlsslbles on the Fourth of July, would appear aa a thing of beauty and fill to the fullest extent the most extravagant exception of the ideal man. Prof. L. De Trevllle of Orangeburg speaks thus of him : The Mongol's lecture Is said to be an appetizing dis-sectatiou upon the more modern methods of missionary manipulation, the professor exploding the former theory ol serving them cold, and proving conclusively to the delighted audience that they are belter partaken of hot. with rauce piquante, and giving the enthused congregation the benelit ot hts own experience, in which the a la mode prevails, the older subject requiring the parboil with the subsequent basting, and to be served with celery and olives. The great mystery as well as the serious apprehension about the epicure, is how he was reformed, and the stability of his reformation and the lingering relish with which he gloats upon his lormer diet is said to produce conversion to common faro. OLD TUMBLE'S FRIENDS DESPONDENT. The Ladles of Troy Buy Fashionable Hats at Abbeville. Trial Justick F. A.Cook, of Troy, wan iu town yesterday, bringing with him a company of ladies, who came to buy the cholcext millinery from our well tilled 6torea. The fact Ik, the stores at Abbeville are attractive, and the goods in them being of the latest styles ar.a fashions, no lady about Troy feels Matlafled that she has the most fashionable liat unless she buys it at Abbeville. Mr. Cook say*, that the people o( Troy have about despaired of ever getting "Old TuinI'lln," hi . encouragement they would till work for it with a will. LI ru n Buggy ItobeB from 50c to 91. O. I*.

His many friends In this section are always glad to meet this venerable man of God who has spent a long life in his Master's service. Mr. E. C. Coclilne, of Anderson, who is here acting as depot agent, in Mr. Shanklin's absence worshipped with the Methodists yesterday. The hail on Friday cooled the air so that flres nightand morning have again felt lo be a necessity. Some of our people attended the big auction sale of lots, at Calhoun Falls, Friday. They report a large and orderly crowd, and aboul one hundred of the lots sold at high prices. Dr. J. G. Moorhead, of Monterej, was on our streets Saturday. Our Presbyterian and Baptist churches, had only Sunday School exercises yesterday. Judge J. J. Moseley and Mrs. J. T. Barnes went over to Heardmont yesterday, on a visIt to the family of Mr. J. F.

W.Trowbridge, of Anderson was In town for a short timeSaturday. A few days ago Mr. \V. L. Bowman while assisting to raise a small bridge had the misfortune to badly mash one of his feet with a heavy piece of timber. On the same day, his father, Mr. A. Z. Bowman met with a similar accident, and with the same timber, since which time both have been hardly able tc get ubout. Miss Meta Allen, little daughter of Mr. B Berry Allen has been sorely afflicted with bone erysipelas for the past two or three weeks. As enough time has el.ipsed since the last death dealing agent to the fruit crop, 1. e (rost came, we can give a more certain re port, and we find a prelty good supply 01 peaches, and a bit; supply of apples and pears. The smaller fruits strawberries, raspberries, will fall short. Watermelons are ex> pected to be plentiful after awhile, as nearlj every one has planted a large patch. The tall sown small grain, wheat, oats nni! barley is now looking fine, and gives promise of a big yield. At the time of sending off my last week'i contribution to the Press and Banner no dtfl nlte conclusion had been reached as to the unfortunate killing of Ed Anderson, neai here on the Saturday before Then the mat ter had undergone only a , artlal legal unInvestigation, the court ot puuilc opinion adjudges that the account given by you In last week's Press and Banner is substantially true in the main, correct, excepting where the phraseology leaves the reader to judge that the accused dlslgnedly or intentlonall} hot and killed the deceased. No one In tblt section, known to the writer, Tor a moment believes any such thing. It was simply one of those untoward, unfortunate accidents that sometimes happen. Mr Cooley Is too well known in this community, having done business here for years. The State of South Carolina, COUNTY OF ABBEVILLE. rpHE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP HERETOA fore existing between J.
