People ami Things In and Abont the 11 jr. Jones, S. C.. Oct. 24,1894. We notice that the harder the times get tbe larger the newspapers are getting, especially so with tbe Press ana Banner. It looks like tbe newspaper men are coming down as cotton oomee.and as tbe farmer has to do. Dr. W. E. Jones is having bis chimneys put up to bis new residence. Bob and John are wondering what has be* oome of tbe candidate who brought them the Press and Banner. John says tne candidate paid for tbier paper, as he sent it to them before the election, and they voted for him?at least John says be did. Mr. J. A. Doctson. accompanied by hl6 daughter, Miss Indie, visited relatives near - Donalds last Sabbath. Tbe overflow of tbe creeks some time ago damaged corn considerably. It seems that there has been more corn harvested in tbis community this year than usual. Misses Lldie and Nettie Jones visited Irlends In Laurens oonnty recently. The school is progressing in every respect, and there 16 a promise of greater attendance this session than there has ever been. The Sunday school Is in a flourishing condition under tbe Buperlntendency of Prof. W. P. Cnlbertson. It Is rumored that there Is a post office to be established at Maddox's Mill in tbe near future. Tbe name of the offloe will be HlgglnB, and Mr. W. M. HlgglnB will be postmaster. it will be a great convenience to tbe people of bat section. Mr. B. JLlpford is trying to get a post office at bis store, or in tbe community near Turkey Creek Cburcb. One is needed there also. Let db have post offices. The Honea Path Chronicle appears to want * V* ? <ilnnonou|i|' someming a nine ueuer iuku un uu^uwij law. What will It be, and what will bring on prohibition any quicker ? It seems that our community has become afflicted with sore feeted men. Messrs. Wm. Williamson and James Morrison each have a very sore foot. We hope they will soon be able to get out and gather four-cent cotton. Willie Dodson has joined the Sunday school at this place. He says be is not much on the lesson. He stays at Sunday school powerful late In the night. We imagine the chickens crow for midnight before he gets home. Willie, you know there are two klndB of lessons. Some unknown parties tried to break into the store of Messrs. Martin & Morrison, at Brewerton, last Saturday night. Mr. J. L. Martin was sleeping In the store that night and they were not successful in their raid. Hon. F. A. Graham spent a night In this community recently. Mrs. Mollle Arnold, of Coroneca, visited relatives here last Sunday. Joe Oula has been quite sick for the past two weeks. We are glad to report him convalescent. It looked like we were going to have a storm yesterday evening, but the cloud passed ofl , quietly with a shower of rain. J. R. O., Jr. Mlulon of the Newspaper. Augusta Cronicle. There was a celebration at Attleboro the other day, and the orator of the occasion waf a clergyman?Mr. Wales. At se/he point in hlfl oration the work of newspapers was com mented npon by the speaker in th9 following sensible and practical words : "It is the mlsBlon of the newspaper to publish news. Now It Is a fact that from the man who waters his milk to the cold-blooded murderer, all degrees of criminal mankind want i.iarK thieves, scandal' D6WB eupyicoocu. M.I..*, , mongers, deoelvors. burglars, fighters, gamblers, drunkards and gentlemen rascals all cry out against the news publishers. Tbelr bus! ness Is disturbed by toe enterprise of newspa pen. Bat no one wbo la open and bonest and rreefrom any taint of transgression wants news suppressed." There is a deal of common sense In these few sentences, and tboee people wbo are accustomed to criticising the work of newspa pen will do well to read them over carefully.

Sberrard, ol Moffattsvllle, was down Sunday, tbe guest of Mr. J. B. ReRoy. | Mr. Jas M. Baker, of Washington, I). C.t came home last week for a few week's stay. Miss Mattle Floyd, of North Carolina, arrived here last week to visit Mrs. D. K. Cooley and other friends. Mr. W. A. T. Oliver, of Gadsden. Ala., has spent the past two or three weeks, atnoDg his friends In and around this, his old home. He having been in tbe mining business for several years, has examing many of the larms, with the bills, gullevs and streams to locate any treasures that they might contain. He now has bands at work on Mr. Jeff Bowman's place near Craft's ferry, where he has found floe specimens of mica, kaolin, Ac. Rev. H. C. Fennel and Mr. J. T. Baskln left Monday for Greenville, to attend a session of tbe South Carolina Synod. Mr. J. T. Latimer, early Tuesday morning left for Abbeville, wbure, at a later hour, at the home of bis brother, Mr. J. H. Latimer, be was united In marriage to Mrs. V. E. Moore by Dr. H. W. Bays. Tbe bridal couple returned to this plnce that night. Success and happiness attend these friends. Prof. T. O. Klrkpalrick, of lionea Path, lately elected Prlncpal of our High School, came in "otiu nit lha land " nrnnnr. 1U JfCBbClUnj Hi (/) , , atory to beginning the exercises of his school on Monday. Hon. A. C. Latimer addressed a crowd ot the. constituents in this place on last Thursday. Two depots, Latimer and Hester, below here on the S V. R. K., have been dlscontlned, they not having business enough to warrant hlB keeping of them open. On dlt, that the G., C. & S. R. tt , Is negotatlug for the 8. V. R. R., we hope that it is so, and that the trade will be enected. It Is now In order to have an exhibition. Mr. W. L. Kennedy has one at the E. R. Horton Co.'s store, which whelghs pounds. It however, resembles more a quartette grown together, than a single one. Mr. Kennedy is employed by the above Hrm for the busy season. Mr. D. L. Barnes and Mrs. R. L. Moorehead went to Anderson last Sunday by the dirt road. There are some complaints of cotton losses by theft. That seems to us at the present time to be a small business. Any one who would steal Sets cotton mast be either hard up, or may be they simply continue the business that they "may keep their hand in" for better prices. Mr. J. J. Rice having been troubled for sometimes with a chicken and egg thief, and believing it to be some wild animal, which "loves darkness rather than light" laid out some poisoned eggs several nights, and for three mornlnes in succession, found near by a pole cat. Since then there has been I no further trouble. The Press and Banner reached us this week In quite an enlarged form. We are glad of it. It Is quite an Improvement. To date, we have had light frosts. Tender vegetation alone shows the effect of them. Troupe. | Rosenberg's I.ochIn. When you go all over town and can't get what you want, go to Rosenberg's. They've got it.

Mr. Antony Pearson, of Abbeville, spent Sabbath with bis mother and sister. As all the ministers of the place were absent last Sabbath, there was no preaching In the A.

She Is looking well. Charlotte agrees with her. A. S. (i. ABBEVILLE'S NEEDS, Nome of the IiiilnMtrieM Which In our Hnrry, Ha* Been Forgotten. The growth in business, the increase of buildings, and the large additlou to our population call for variouB Industries which, lu our hurry and excitement, seem to have been {forgotten. For instance: | 1. We need water works. 2. We need electric lights. ( a. We need an iron foundry and machine shop. 4. We need a steam laundry. 5. We need an Ice factory. C. We need a cotton mill. We presume that few persons will deny that, within the last two years, Abbeville has made greater strides in all that builds ud a town than has been made in any,part of South Carolina, and yet the industries ot which wc speak, seem to have been overlooked. Most ot these industries should be undertaken by men experienced in the diffen-ut linpH. To subscribe stocb: and build these plants by In experience men would not do. We need experienced men to take charge of the various industries, and these men should l be men of means or credit, who can build them and whose business methods would bring success. Except In the matter of cotton mills, slock companies seldom make other success than to furnish good places for lucky employees. Hut where experienced men put their money they save in expenditure, and their energy and pushing the business insures success. Less expeuse and increased business, tell the tale that makes glad the heart. A man living In Clay who owes us over two years' subscription, put bis paper back In the post office last week marked "Refused." We nave heard of many mean men. There is the man who used the wart on his neck for a collar button, the one who pastured the goat on his grandmother's grave, the one who stole coppers from a dead man's eyes, the man who got rich by giving his tlve children a nickle each lo go to bed without supper and then stealing the nickle after the children were asleep; but for pure down right n>eauness,the man who will take the paper for years, mark it "Refused," and then stick It back in the nost ofllee Is entitled to the first premium.?
