Lowndesvllle, July 23,1900. There will be a picnic on Kocky Klver on August 3rd. All are invited to go and carry well-filled baskets. our Carnival-struck citizens began to pull out for Abbeville, and from that time till Thursday others followed, till as a whole our town waR well represented. Miss Helen Kellers and Miss AllieMay Kennel left here Tuesday morning lor Abbeville, where they remained several days taking In the sights, then they went to the home of the first named where the last will stay some time Mpssrs. Ernest and Marion Latimer, Henry Allen, Clarence Young, Jack Barnes, went to Cherokee Shoals in the Savannah River, where they spent two or three days flailing and lunninz. Mr. and Mrs. P. B. Allen, of Starr, came down Tuesday and were the guests of Mr. E. W. Harper. Mrs. Joe \V. Keys, of Anderson, having spent several days at the above mentioned home, left for her home Tuesday evening. Mrs. J. B. Franks and little "J. B.," who have spent the past lew months with Mr. J. B. Franks in Philadelphia, came back to their home here Tuesday evening. Mr. \V. A. Giles, of Granitevilie, came up more than a week ago on a visit to the family of his sister Mrs. Joe Gibert, and spent several days with them and other relatives in this town and section. Mr. Giles is a native of this place and spent ten of his earliest years here. He is a son of W. A. Giles, Esq., whose home was with us for a number ot years, and was highly respected and honored by all of our people and all who knew him everywhere, and we were glad to welcome one of his descendants. Our Oil Mill has shipped to Newport News, Va., about one hundred and forty-live tons ol cottonseed meal. It still has on hand enough to supply the borne demand. It Is freely admitted by all judges that more grass has been killed in this section within the last two weeks than ever before in the same length of time. Dry, hot sunshine, and some how the grass had oat little root, has given the planters an uneqoaled opportunity for getting rid of this (sometimes so considered) evil. Strange to say, with all of the tine growing weather, the corn and cotton had but little root, and it was believed that such being the case, they would be seriously injured by the necessary tearing up of the soil and roots to clean them, especially so, as the ground became dry so quickly; but they wilted but little, and are now doing much oener iuhu uuuiu uu Mrs. Geo. Chambers and three children, or Augusta, are at the Kay House, where they expect to board during the summer monthshave thus seleoted our town as a summer resort. Mr. Hamsay Blake, of Greenwood, after spending two days at the Abbeville Carnival, came up here late Wednesday evening, and was with the family of his brother-in-law Mr. H. A. Tennent and some friends in town, till uext evening, when he went to Anderson and on to his home the next day. The Press and Banner was two days late In reaching us this week. Miss Genevieve Marcbant went to Abbeville Friday to attend the examination which was held at that place on that day*4,for the award of the vacant scholarships In Wluthrop College." Miss Marchant was honored with a scholarship at this College last term, but from some cause It seems as if such benefits do not extend beyond the time above given, and It is necessary to undergo an annual special examination to uain a scholarship for a longer time than one term. Messrs. J. E. Allen and Nick Benson have finished their threshing tour, and in their travels they threshed about 7,000 bushels of grain. Mr. B. C. Kay was called to Abbeville Friday on business. There was quite a large excursion train run from Anderson to Augusta Thursday. There were three coaches for the whites and three for the blacks and all were well crowded when they reached this point. But few ol either color went from here; a large number of both were at the depot, but the only stock that they took in It was as spectators. It Is said to have been an orderly, well-conducted one for the times. Mr. Bolln Allen's colt seems to have come into the world under an unlucky star, or something else. It Jumped or fell Into the Hrooks gully and tried to break its neck, then a few days ago It attempted to jump a gate and cut its throat pretty badly, but with a few stitches, and after attention, its life was saved. What next? Miss Ida Seel, of Anderson. Is at Mr. W. L. Bowman's for a sometime stay. Mr. Jas. M. Baker and his oldest boys, Marion and Lawrence, of Washington, D. C., came in yesterday evening and will remain here a while. DEATH. A HtlU mnrothon n week aco Mr. R. W. Collier's oldest daughter, about Ave years of age, was taken sick. Dr. T. O. Kirkpatrlck was called in. Loving attention and medical attention were fully utilized, but she grew worse, and Thursday Dr. B. A. Henry, of An derson was summoned and came, but all was of no avail, and late Saturday evening little Florlde waB taken from lier earthly to her heavenly home. Sunday at 3 p. m., the funeral services were conducted In the Baptist church by Rev. J. A. Brown. Her remains were then carried to Providence cem| etery and luid away in their silent home, In presence of many sympathizing Ifrlends These attllctions must needs be, they are hard, very hard to bear, [t Is only the bereaved hearts that can fully realize the sor row and bitterness oi having taken from them the Joys and hopes of their earthly llves, and world-wide sympathy and condolence cannot lessen the blow, nor heal the wound. He and He alone, who creates and destroys, can console. A childlike trust and resignation can alone give balm to troubled hearts. May this result lollow. Troupe. APPEAL FOR MERCY. His Sense of Jnstice Excite* O. 1*. II. to Take Hide With the Frlentllean. Mr. Editor: I have no desire to give vent publicly to a thought that would have the retAnWonm? ha nnnotrnpfl RB anclDg or upholding any man or womau that has incurred the penalty of a State or municipal law by being guilty ol some violation. The law 1b manufactured lor a good purpose and should be respected and entorced. But I am a little inclined to think a: times, condign punishment should be meted out, tempered with mercy. Ciroupistances, oftentimes, are of such a character as to demand it. Murder frequently is no rare exception. I will refer to an instance that occurred recently within the jurisdiction of Due West, that I think, is entitled to soma sympathy. The punishment adjudged and inflicted upon the sable victim, (Melvin Ellis) by the "powers that be" in that classic town noted for 1 morality, guaranteed by hearsay, and backed largely by public sentiment, was too severe > lor the Infraction made or provocation given. It is not my pleasure, however, or within my province of doing business, to indulge in fault-finding or pretending to criticise legalized authorities, but cannot, consistent with what I deem Is right, resist in this case, knowing the loose, worthless character of the woman that instigated the criminal offences, from repeating, the sentence imposed upon that Ignorant, pennyless, and friendless negro, was on the extreme. 1 appeal to the official dlgnltarles.of the said town with due deference to their sincerity and impartiality In transacting their duties, to reconsider the matter and commute the sentfiriRfl n.t. least two-thirds less In severity. | Such mitigation ot punishment would not, I assure you. Incur publlo Indignation. Nor In auyway bo humilating to your judicious administration of the ethics or laws that are constructed for your ruling of the town. Agreeable to tny mode or style of adjudging such lawless crimes of such characters -vould be to impose the penalty on both parties, the one Is about as deep in the mud an the other In the mire. Mr. Editor, not being fully posted In the particulars, perhaps I have said enough or too much, made myself somewhat obnoxious or amendable to be reproached by the council board as a meddlesome Intruder, interfering with a matter that didn't concern my Interest. If I have erred in any particular, beg pardon. However, I'll venture to assert my opinion aggreeable to ray observation that > chartered corporations are rather too prone to enaot heavy ffnanclai punlshmeuts on the | Ignorant laboring class of people, especially, tbe colored population, when they are arraigned before their tribunals for violating the ordinance orders of the town. I presume, a petition for mercy would be the proper course j for action In the above case. O. P. H. W. D. llnrkNdale I.ochIn. The finest Hour. Try "Grandeur." Good stock of stoves all sizes.
