Forty-Sixth Year.
With this Issue of the PreBR and Banner the
editor begins his forty-sixth year of labor In
the offlce.
Of the two hundred voters In town when he
entered the offlce, In April, 1859, we can recall
only the following names of persons who still
Borvlve:
Mr. George A. Douglass,
Capt. John G. Edwards,
Judge R. E. Hill.
Mr. J. Frasler Livingston,
Hon. W.H.Parker,
Dr. W. T. Penney,
Mr. L. W. Perrln.
Col. J. T. Robertson,
Mr. L. H. Russell,
Mr. T. C. Seal,
iur. illiuu TT . Olgu,
Mr. W. Joel Smith,
Mr. H. T. Tusten,
CapL L. W. White,
Mr. George White.
Or those who moved away, and still live, we
wonld mention Mr. W. C. Moore, who Is now
In adistanthome.
Col. T. B. Crews, editor of the Laarensvllle
Herald, Is another who was a citizen of Abbeville
In 1859. He is still In the land of the
living, doing good work for himself and his
fellowman.
Coming home from the war each of these
gentlemen set to work to make a living for
himself and to gain a competency for old age.
In the passing years fickle fortune smiled or
frowned in tarn upon each. Some sunshine
and some rain fell along the path of each.
All are now past sixty, some are past seventy,
and Borne are well on toward eighty. 1
i
Easter.
Last Sunday was Easter. It was a beautiful i
day, and nearly everybody was out of doors.
Ladies who bad pretty bats went tocburcb, I
and there were more pretty women at divine l
service on Sunday morning than bad beeD
there In many a day. The hats are now more
beautiful than ever before and when they
oover a pretty iaoe the combination is' unspeakably
lovely.
They may trim hats with flowers, birds, '
ribbons, rare Jewels, and all other such things '
that dazzle the eye and captivate the heart,
bat a pretty face is the prettiest thing that
ever adorned a pretty hat.
As a dreamer Jacob took the cake In the
olden times. Being weary, as you all know,
he lay down In the shade of an oak tree, It Is '
supposed of the variety under which careless
farmers now store their cotton, and be fell 1
asleep. In his sleep he dreamed that he saw
the aDgels ascending and descending that
great Imaginary ladder which reached from
earth to heaven. These angels were but a
dream of beauty and loveliness, while the
women who eo to our churches, and pass up
and down oar streets, wearies tbe prettiest
millinery, are divinities lDdeed. They are
substantial realities before whom the world
fallBdown arid does homage. We see them Id
life, and In health, and In beauty, and Id
sweetness, so good and so true, that we almost
feel sorry for poor old Jacob who was
Imposed upon by a vision which was in fact
as delusive aB tbe farmer's dream about the
future high price of cotton while bis bales are
rotting or taking tbe blue mold under an oak
tree.
In the afternoon many belles and beaux
went driving the nicest horses and tbe nicest,
buggies In town. In fact, tbe demand for nice
buggies and quick steppers was great.
DurlDg tbe afternoon all sorts of people
went walking, except those who hired teams. 1
In the driving procession we were remind- I
ed of an oocurrenoe which we have told before.
In Columbia years ago this editor hired a
carriage and horses to take some young ladles
T\nii|n(* a Hr! no tpo noDqoH \1 T
uwTiug. bug wiitu nw - j
Beattleof Greenville, wbo was walking with
his lady on the sidewalk. He was rich and
able to own and keep carriages and horses
every day in the year. We were not able to
hire a carriage lor two hours. There was an
object lesson la the lnoldent. Oar hired carriage
was driven back to the livery stable,
where it belonged. We haven't hired a carriage
since that time. We are walking now.
It may be that you think we are talking
more about flowers and pretty women than
about the worship ol the Author of our being. <
But our Saviour talked of flowers. He loved
the flowers for both their beauty and their 3
sweetness. He likened himself to tbe Rose
of Sharon and tbe Lily of the Valley. He
said that Solomon In his glory was not array- ?
ed like the most modest of the flowers. After
the crucifixion be was, no doubt, taken to tbe ?
most lovely of all tbe gardens to be burled
amid tbe flowers where tbe birds In the overhanging
branches of the trees sang their
sweetest songe. Wherever there is purity,
wherever there is sweetness and love, wher- ?
ever there Is beauty and devotion, wherever t
there Is gloom or sorrow, the flowers are ever (
welcome. At our birth, at our marriage, and (
at our death, the flowers are always approprl- f
ate. Without flowers to beauty our homes, to
deoorate our churches, or to make more beau- t
tlful the landscape tbe Easter would be less ]
cheerful, less remindful of tbe occasion of the t
most Important festival In the church. 1

In Abbeville Again.
Mr. Thomas T. Cromer was in town one day
last week, Investing a little more of bis sur- f
plus cash in our furniture faotory stock. Tbe J
prospect is, that he will become a tower of i
strength to one ol our manufacturing enter. 1
prises. He has the money, and, actuated by J
the noble Impulse to come to the relief of bis 1
brother, as well as by tbe prospect ol making <
a irmail Dile while the cotton market is dull. I
Mr. Cromer will make the Abbeville furnl- i
ttfro factory fairly June?If you know what I
"June" means.
If we are not In error our neighbor, from i
the town of prohibitionists and blind tigers,
the News and Views, is somewhat exercised '
for fear Mr. Cromer may bring all biB pile I
this way Instead of Investing It in Graen- 1
wood. <
The. Press and Banner would be sorry to
take anything from our Bister town, but
whatever comes is grist In Abbeville's mill. 1
So Mr- Cromer will find a splendid place to ;
Invest a little of the money which he made
ofl the .New York gudgeons, who try to get
the best of tbe man who grows the cotton.
We know that Mr. Cromer's removal to Abbeville
would be a severe loss to Greenwood,
but then think how much Abbeville would
make in tbe deal.
Desecration of the Temple.
Recently some boys went to one of our
drug stores and buught a bottle of offensevely
odoriferous medicine and on Sunday
poured it over the cushion in one of the pews
at the Episcopal Church In this city.
It is hard y necessary to characterize this
deed and we have no doudt that the young
gentlemen are heartily ashamed of such
a notorious tresspass. Even if they should
feel inclined to treat the act as a Joke the
probability or severe puni8nwjeni in case ioe ;
, names of tbe perpetrators of the deed should j
become known, will prevent their making
merry over an act for which they might suffer
in both good name and personal lncocven-'
ence In compulsory absence on tbe public
works. #
i T H Jii JATJii
A New Iiiinibor Yard.
The advertisement of Mr. W. H. Long in-1
forms the public that he iR In the lumber !
business. Abbeville Is growing so fast that
there Is no telling: our possibilities. Mechanics
of all kinds are pressed every day
with work, and new men are being called for.
It was only laBt week that Mr. VV. W. White,
building superintendant, wsnt to Atlanta lor
additional help. Dr. L. T. Hill and Dr. U. A.
Neufl'er have fine houses well underway.
Mr. L. T. Miller has the frame on the pillars
for a nice new dwelling.
Capt. L. W. White Is clearing bis lot preparatory
lo building an eleeant home.
Mr. J. C. Ellis bus just furnished as pretty a
house as can ba found In Abbeville.
President .1. It. Blake and manager John
Lyon are building a now warehouse at the
Southern station. Messrs. John aud A. W.
Calhoun will occupy one of tbe rooms as a
wholesale grocery store. Tbe wholesale grocery
business is something new. and tbe
amount of the sales wblob the Messrs. Calhoun
are making, Is a surprise to us all.
Many of our merchants recognize a good
thing when they see it, and have fallen into
line and are liberal buyers. They buy from
the Messrs. Calhoun, not because they love
them, but because it Is to their interest.
The warehouse is proving alike for tbe
farmer and merchant, one of the best institutions
In town. The stockholders are waiting
for tbe dividends, but who cares for dividends
so long as we have no stock. Those of us who
have no stock are in position to wait, and can
afford to do so. Those who have stock are
able to wait, but will be sure to get a dividend?after
awhile?In a few years at (nrtherest,
when the stock ought to be worth away
above par. A good dividend has been
going to make needed Improvements or to
finish navlne cost of construction.
All debts having been paid and the demand
for more shares was such that it was deemed
wise to add another section to the already
large building. The rool would have been on
it by this time, but the contractor to furnish
the lumber, Dr. S. G. Thomson, bad the misfortune
to lose it fu the destruction by
tire in a drying kiln. But in a little while the
lumber will beou the ground and the building
will be only a short time lu its present un
finished condition. The people are beginning
to see the advantage of a warehouse, and are
making more and more use of it as the years
some and go. The high price of cotton has
been of great benefit to the warehouse as well
fis to the farmer. The farmer, If he needs the
money, can take his receipts to any of our
janks and draw money while his cotton
Is being safely kept at a nominal cost.
Brick.
While Mr. J. L. MoMillan has been makng
millions of brick annually, yet he has
nore on hand at this time, which could be
lad for either love or money.
But to supply the demand he has equipped
hree different brick yards, and has either set
hem In operation or lsaooui reaay xo ao so.
)ne yard Is at Darraugbs, on the Southern.
Another Is on Long Cane on the Seaboard.
The third Is at Mrs. Leslie's, some two miles
jorthwestof the city.
Mr. McMillan has quite a reputation for
naking good brick, and everybody know6
hat bis prices are reasonable.
Tbe New Oil Mill.
The talk of a new oil mill in Abbeville has
iboutdled out, but we notice that the farmers
)f Newberry have gone to work and raised
i subscription of 89,000 frcm tbe people of
iifferent sections who have cotton to gin and
leed to sell, it Is contemplated giving the
town people an opportunity to invest with
;bem. If the farmers around Abbeville so
will It, a new mill can be built at this place,
ind one of their number could take active
jontrol of It,so that tbe owners and tbe customers
would realize every good that there
Is in the enterprise.
Getting Ripe.
Candidates are beginning to ripen, and it
7111 be only a little while until the boyB can
begin to "pull 'em."
SALE DAY.
S?le of Real Etttnte in the Town ol
Due Went.
Last Monday was Sale Day, and quite a
number of good humored ana well behaved
people were here.
The only official sales that were made were
those of the Master under decree in tbe case
)f James Edgar Smith against J. Altbeus
Johnson, being 18 acres, divided Into tracts, as
follows :
Tract No. 1. 7-8 of an acre, with double cabIn
and well, ?100. James Edgar Smith, plainIB,
buyer.
Tract No. 2, 6 34 acres, to James Edgar
Smith, $200.
Tract No. 8, 61-3 acres to Arch D. Kennedy,
100.
Tract No. 4,2 1-3 acres to J. C. Trlbble, S200.
Tract No. 5, 1 3 4 acres, the homestead, to
ramett Edgar Smith S900.
This lacked a little of paying the mortgage
ind costs, leaving the plaintiff nothing.
A Boy Hero.
"To him, I am sure I owe it that I
im at home, that i am alive and able
oackuowledge my debt," wrote James
J'Dounell Bennett, war.correspondent
)f a New York paper, from the yeilow
i ii^.,
CVCl UUSpiiai, iicui uiuvucj vuua
"I shall not soon forget," he couinues,
"that little, swartby, smiling
[talian, who, despite his nativity, is
is good au American as ever lifted his
lat to the flag. Frank Matinez is his
name, and when he is not busy saving
ive9, he plays the cymbals in thejband
>f the Thirteenth United States Infau;ry.
When the yellow fever broke out at
iiboney, an isolation camp was estabisbed
some two or three miles back
n the woods. Thither we who had
;he fever were taken, and thither went
Frank Martinez. Tbere were between
fifty and seventy-five of us, and be was
jur only nurse. Without him I do
not know what we should have done,
ind vet he was such a little chap, and
tie had never had tbe fever, aud he was
playing with his life in coming near
us.
"He helped us to wash our fevered
bodies, he built tbe tires and prepared
the condensed milk and buried tbe
camp offal and pitched the tents and
carried live coals to the smokers and
water to the tbirsty. He cheered us
up with his merry laugh aud his radiant
face, and he fetched aud carried
and ran in rain and shine, in darkness
and dawn.
"He never thought of himself. He
would work for hours iu dripping
clothes, and when we begged him to
strip and wrap up in a blanket, be
would say; No, I am too busy. Soon
the sun will come, aud it will dry me.'
Then he would rush away to build a
tire or raise the walls of a tent, so that
a breath of clean air could reach us,
and we could bear the water chugging
in his shoes.
"When I was releaseb from the
Anwtt-t Ka f krour Kio o n>?c nrnmwl mo
Uaiiip) uc tmcn uio unuo aiuuuu uiv/j
and tor an instant held me in his
grasp.
"I could not see him plainly then,
for the grateful tears blinded me; but,
as the days pass by, I can behold him
clearly. He stands there on tbe green
hillside, little and swarthy and erect,
blue circles of pain and weariness under
bis eyes, his face pinched and his
hands shaking from loss of sleep.
That was my last sight of Frank
Martinez. I do not know whether he
is living or dead, but I know that
if he still lives, he is doing good."

Pjiumuii'rf Simltiiry Problem.
Surgeon General Wyman has renoi"uH
tho wnopf. of Snnrpoil Pnrrv.
sent to Panama to investigate the
sanitary coudition anil needs of the
isthmus, from which it is apparent
that the United States will be required
to spend millions for the sanitary safety
of life before it is humane to begin
the work of actual construction on me
Panama canal.
This ia as was expected, and, in view
of the success achi :ved by our government
in practically freeing Cuba from
yellow fever, the ta?k before Surgeon
General Perry may not oe such a Herculean
one as is feared. Doubtless the
purification uf the canal route would
be easier had no work ever been done
on the great waterway, for the accum- i
ulated wreckage of years left by the
French constructors has left a veritable
hotbed of malignant germs from Colon
to tne rocKy oacsuoue ui iue isuumua.
The ditch as far as constructed is filled
with debris, rank undergrowth, slime
and contaminated by the shallow
graves ol' thousands of laborers who
fell victims to the dread fevers and
bowel disorders endemic in that plague
spot.
The problem of getting the labor
least subject to malarial and other tropical
diseases is going to be, perliap's,
the greatest one connected with the
whole undertaking. This was me
French experience, but it is true that
the French set a much lighter value
on human life than will Uncle Ham
when once he rolls up his sleeves and
prepares to dig. The former canal
companies did little really scientific
and thorough work to better the sanit?rv
fondition of the riirht of wav.
They seem to have gone on the inhuman
principle that lives were cheaper
than sanitation.
Already there is talk of employing
coolie labor if sanitary conditions are
found to be such that Americans cannot
work on the isthmus. The natives
are said to be of little account as canal
laborers and they seem to succumb
to disease almost as readily as .North
Americans.
At any rate, the first thing the
United States will have to do is to
clean the canal route"lrom A to izard,''
employing the most advanced sanitary
methods. This will probably involve
a good deal of delay in getting construction
started.
Even a man with false teeth laments the
deception ol women.
The sucessful book agent always stops in
the front yard to admire the children there.
