TUE COUNTY K AIK.
The time for the County Fair Is drawing
nigh, only about one mouth aud our ciiy will
be tilled with a gay aDd lively crowd Now
1b the time for Superintendents to call tbelr
commltiees together and go systematically to
work, and a great deal can readily be accomplished.
Farmers should begin at once to
put their stock in trim, as well as to get their
best specimens of farm aud garden produce
arranged so as to make the most creditable
exhibit. Of course the ladles will be up with
all exhibits for their several departments.
Think ovt-r the matter and let everybody
briDg something to swell the list of exhibits,
don't wait tor your neighbors, but act lor
yourselt and do your best to get tirst premiums
on all your entries; if every one will do
. this our Fair will notouly be a credit to the
people, but to our county as well. Success in
,k5u ""tnmploQ mounu vrtunh for OUT POlintV
and will be or untold advantage in many
different ways, while lallure will give us a
setback that will not readily be overcome.
I<et everybody work harmoniously together
and do their best and our grand old county
will by her exhibits show to the world what
we can do when we try.
There will never be a more opportune
time for our merchants to make a grand display
of their goods, and or course those oi
them who are up-to-date will take advantage
of It and have a display that will send their
names and business not only over this, but
adjoining counties as well, and In such a way
that they will not soon be forgotten.
WHAT WE SEE AND HEAR ON OUK ROUTE.
As we ride over the roads day by day we
have ample time for reflection and of course
see and hear a great deal. Our attention and
ID IDa IS nrbL UU uur uuoiucoo?luo ivuim
Mail service," its systematic arrangement
throughout tbe entire system in the greal advantages
brought to tbe very doors ol our
people, giving them advantages in this that
even all city lolk do not have, lor instance:
Many of tbe people In Abbeville bave to go
over a half mile to get tbelr mall, while this
system carries It to tbe homes ol tbe people.
Tbe government has sent lock boxes to be
put up at such places as shall be designated
by tbem for the general collection of mail,
making It perfectly safe for any and all In a
neighborhood to deposit tbelr mail matter in
these boxes, wblcb will be taken out daily by
tbe carriers. Besides nice lock boxes, tbe
only sale ones, are furnished to any of tbe
patrons along tbe several routes at a very
moderate cost. This is certainly an up-todate
move and we trust tbe people will fully
appreciate It and do their best to make tbe
system one of mutual benefit to themselves
and tbe government.
We next notice tbe way the farmers are
bustling, as this season of tbe year brings a
variety of work, such as cotton picking, mowing
bay, gathering peas, cutting and baullng
wood both for market and private use. We
meet daily, trains of wagons baullng pine
wood to tbe Cotton Mill and tbe Eleotric
Light Co. borne are sowing barley and turnips,
rye and clover, and already looking forward
to anotber year wben they shall bave
plenty, wblle those who neglect these Important
crops will surely be In want or bave
to buy. "Money saved, Is money made," and
will bold good on tbe farm as elsewhere.
Farmers are asking about tbe "Abbeville
Flouring Mill" and why It was not finished
lor this season's business. We saw one farmer
living seven miles west of Abbeville,
wending his way through this city to Greenwood
with a big load of wheat. Abbeville's
loss 1b Greenwood's gain.
Messrs. Gilliam Brothers have th*.'r large
ginnery and saw mill running at lull speed
and on fall time, being centrally located near
the "old Bass*' borne, aod In a good section of
country are rusblng for a big business this
season.
At the cross roads nea>- the "old Gray
Spring" Mr. W.T. Maglll Is getting bis ginnery
and saw mllL ready for work, and In
anticipation of a big business. Is building additional
room to bis already large and commodious
gin house. Everybody along our
route seems to be on the move, working hard
and looking for better times. From the
amount of dally and weekly papers, Journals
aud general literature, taken by the patrons
along this route, we see no reason why tlie
farmers, and their families also, Bhould not
keep pace with the world's doings, as well as
keeping in tbe front rank with all modern
Improvements on tbte farm.
Our county papers each have a eood circulation
generally over this route; they above
all others should go into every family, as
they not only givt> them outside news, but
keepB them posted In all affairs of tbe oounty,
as well SB-valuable receipts, Sunday reading,
Sunday School International Lessons?all In
all making them the best of tamlly papers.
Messrs. Thornton and Sprouse are building
a new bridge over White's creek about 9
miles from Abbeville on the Island Ford road
Just below Mr. Marlon Link's. They will also
repair other bridges on the Charleston road.
We met Supervisor Nlckles a few days ago
who said he would have bis road machines
and a large force of bands at work In and

-would put the roads traveled by the U. 8.
mall carriers In tine shape, for which he will
have everlasting praise from the people and
mall carriers as well.
ANOTHER SHOOTING API'KAY.
On last Sunday afternoon several pistol
shots rang out clear andjoud on "factory hill"
and upon Inquiry we learned that Mr. Wm.
McKlnney bad been shot by bis son, the ball
taking eflect in the upper part of the shoulder
making a painful, but not necessarily
dangerous wound. Dr. Hill rendered prompt
and efficient service, and soon bad bis patient
resting as comfortably as cottld be expected.
Sheriff Lyon and the city police were soon on
the scene with blood hounds which brought
the fugitives to a halt at less than a mile
from the place (be shooting occurred. We
have not bad an opportunity of learning the
minute particulars. Only that Mr. McKlnney,
bis son, and son-in-law were engaged in
some trouble that finally brought about the
above result.

Berlin, Sept. 15.?The service of mourn in
> for the death of President McKlnley held th
) moruing tn the American church In Berll
was very Impressive. The edifice whs heav
L ly hung with crepe and crowded with Ge
. mans, British and Americans. Among thot
I who attended were Baron vnn Rlchthpfoi
German minister of foreign affairs.
, Dr. Dickie's text was found iu Klrst Corli
> thians, loth chapter and 57th verse: "Bi
- thanks be to God, which givetb uh the victor
i through our Lord, Jesus Christ." He ttpok
In part as lollows:
' This may seem a strange text, but upo
life's mysteries has turned darkne?s lut
I light. Worshipping under the shadow of
dire calamity, we seek to alve voice to th
' feelings of our heart. The first feeling Is on
of detestatlou for the dastardly crime. Tbr?
> martyr presidents! Yet while language Is Ac
. strong enough to express our horror, w
must not yield to a feeling of relation, fc
that Is not the spirit of the master, nor c
President McKlnley.
"The second feellug is one of deep sympn
thy for his widow and lor the whole countrj
The third is one of admiration for his statei
1 manshlp, Integrity and decided Christianity
Ills charity and tact endeared bltn to all.
"The king is dead ! Long live the king
We may say this In hopeful anticipations
President Koosevelt's administration. Th
new executive Is a typical young American.
Washington, Sept. 16.?Speaker liendersoi
I
w has appointed a committee of representatives
fi to attend the presidential funeral. Among
those named are:
Richardson, Tennessee; Bankhead, Alabav
ma; McRae, Arkansas; Sparkman, Florida; .
J Lester, Georgia, Robertson, Lonlsanla; WIN
r* Hams, Mississippi; VV. W. Ketchen, North
? Carolina; K'liott, Houth Carolina; Lactam,
lt Texas, and Swanson, Virginia.
Chicago, Sept. 15.?"If the assassination of
President McKlnlev has taught no other len141
son, lt has taught 70,000,000 people that anar- ]
u" chy Is worse t han treason and must be driven
forever from the country."
10 The ringing words from the lips of United ,
P" States Senator Wm. E. Mason caused the aul<?
rtlence that crowded Hyde Park Methodist
pl church at the memorial services today to ,
"* burst Into a storm of applause.
le ?We should have better laws to guard the
, life of the chief executive of the nation," said
the senator. Some excuse may be found in ]
P* hatred excitement or partisan excitement for
. the assassination of Lincoln and Gartield,
but no such excuse exists for this foul sane
!' man, who had learned his lesson at .the
school of anarchy, which had been taught In
?e public places that rulers should be slain, who
"y had been Influenced and incited to his deed
by the nests of anarchy In Chicago."
