Jim Wood has como back to
Edgefield, and will half sole and
patch your shoes, or anybody's else,
as cheaply and expeditiously as
any Cnspin on this continent.
And we haven't but one objection
. in the world to Jim Wood, and
that is, he steps as high now when
cotton is? 5 cents as he did when it
was 10 cents a pound, thus encour
aging, Sentimentally at least, a
spirit of pride and extravagance.
A Gporgia pappr tells how a mag
istrate tried with rather poor suc
cess to imitate the judgment of
Solomon. He was perplexed by the
conflicting claims of two women
for a baby,each contending that
6he was the mother of it. The
Judge remembered Solomon, and
drawing a bowie knife from his
boot, declared he would give half
to each. The women were shocked,
but had no doubt of the authority
and purpose of the Judge to make
the proposed compromise. "Don't
do that," they screamed in unison,
"you can keep it yourself."
A Hard Times Grindstone.
The most remarkable grindstone
on earth is owned by J.J. Patter
son, of Hamsville, Ky. It has
been in use on his farm since 1M59,
is used by the entire neighborhood,
and is soft or hard according to the
times. In good times when cotton
is 10 cents a pound and other
things according, it becomes very
soft and wears rapidly, but when
times are "gittin' hard and nnney
gitting skace" it isas hard as flint.
This year the sparks from it put
out the eye of a boy who was turn
ing it, set fire to apile of straw
fourteen feet high, and knocked a
bull down that was grazing fifty
feet away. The people have quit
using this grindstone. They say
if 'hues are going to get any
harder they don't want to know it
?rom the grindstone.

Report of the Grand Jury at the
November Term.
To the Hon. W. C. Benet, Presid
ing Judge, November term of
Court for Edgefield county.
We, the Grand Jurors, having
passed upon all bills of indictment
presented to us beg leave to make
the following presentment: We
find the various offices neatly kept
and everything in as good condi
tion as possible.
We have examined the bonds of
the Clerk of Court, Sheriff, and
Master and find them to be strong
and sufficient to protect the public
interest. The other officers bonds
we did not examine from the fact
that the officers for said offices have
just been elected and will have to
give bond in a few days ; and,
therefore, we did not deem it nec
essary to examiue the bonds of the
retiring officials.
We had the Chairman of the
board of Cornty Commissioners to
come before us to know why cer
tain recommendations made by
us at the preceding terms of court
had not been carried out, and he
reports that they have not had
sufficient funds to carry out said
recommendations. We deem this
a sad reflection upon the county,
but cannot censure the County
Commissioners, as we think they
have tried to carry out our recom
mendations as far as they possibly
could. The Chairman of the Board
of County Commissioners reported
that they had furnished, as they
thought, a sufficiency of chairs for
the various offices and the court
room, but that said chairs were
often taken out for the accommoda
tion of different meetings, etc.,
and very often never returned, and
were, therefore, a loss to the county,
and we recommend that furniture
furnished for the use of the county
should not be taken out or used
for any private use whatever.
We appointed a special commit
tee from our body on yesterday to
examine the jail, its condition, and
the condition of the prisoners. We
also appointed a committee for the
same purpose this morning, and we
regret to say that the committees
report that they find the jail in a
filthy and sickening condition.
Slop buckets that were almost full
on yesterday are still in the rooms
this morning, and they say the
stench is perfectly horrible. The
prisoners also complain of insuffi
ciency of food, bedding, and fires.
This state of affairs should not
exist for a moment longer, and
humanity demands that these un
fortunate people should be made
as comfortable as possible, and we
think the pay is sufficient at least
to keep them comfortably warm
and to give them good water for
drinking and bathing, and also to
give them a sufficiency of substan
tial food, and we ask your Honor
to take such action as will remedy
this evil at once. We recommend
that one more stove, to be placed
in the second story, should be fur
nished at once, and also iron cots
for the prisoners to sleep upon
should be furnished so that the
prisoners could be made to clean
up thtir cells and take care of
their bedding instead of throwing
it down on the floor to be walked
over and trampled upon as is done
now.
Complaint has been made to us
that the public road from Mrs.
Rushton'sto Mr. Willis Holmes's
has not been worked for several
years and we a6k that the County
Commissioners be required to have
said road put in good order at
once.
We hereby endorse as a part of
our presentment the report of the
special committee on the Poor
House, and especially do we give
our unanimous endorsement as to
the efficiency, etc., of Capt. A. G.
Williams as steward of the Poor
House, and we recommend that ho
be retained as steward as we feel
satisfied that the wants of the in
mates are carefully looked after
and the interest of the county is
fully protected.
To your Honor and the Solicitor
and the court officials we extend
our thanks for courtesies extended
to us.
Respectfully submitted,
W. S. ALLEN,
Foreman.
BROWN'S TRIAL.
The Murder Case Put Off Until
Tuesday.
BARNWELL, S. C., Nov. 16.-The
trial of Mr. Simon Brown and his
two sons, Herman and Isadore,
upon the charge of murder, for tho
killing of Gribbens, the Tillman
dispensary spy, in Blackville last
August, was not entered upon this
morning as expected.
At the opening of the court So
licitor General Duncan Bellinger
moved the cases be assigned for
trial next Tuesday morning. The
attorneys for the Browns were
anxious for an immediate trial, but
as the solicitor would not agree to
it they acquiesced in the time he
appointed.
This will be one of the most
hotly contested ca^es ever tried in
the courtsof this State.
Solicitor Bellinger is going to
make the effort of his life to con
vict the Browns, and Messrs. Dan
Henderson, of Aiken, and Alfred
Aldrich and Sims & Bates, of
Barnwell, attorneys for the Browns,
will make a strong fight for an ac
quittal.
The solicitor announced this
morning that the ca6e of Dyches,
who is charged with the murder of
Solomon Brown, will not be taken
up before Tuesday.
Great interest is being taken in
this case and the town was crowded
to overflowing this morning with
people who came from all direc
tions to hear the trial, thinking the
case would be taken up to-day.

An Effort to Organize All the
Farmers.
ATLANTA, Nov. 19-In the Lower
House Mr. Jenkins, of Putman,
presented the following memorial
this morniug:
EATONTON, Ga., Nov. 15. 1894.
To the General Assembly of
Georgia-The farmers of Putnam
county, realizing that prompt and
practical action must be taken to
reduce the cotton crop another year
and increase food crops, have in
mass meeting agreed upon the
following plan as the best and most
business-like one to the eud :
Let the Commissioner of Agri
culture for Georgia cause to be
sent to every militia district in the
State a blank, for signatures,
binding the signers to plant next
year one-third of their cultivata
ble lands in cotton and the rest in
food crops; let these blanks be
circulated simultaneously in every
militia district, and the work for
signatures completed ten days after
it is begun, and the lists then re
turned to some general headquar
ters fo.* each county, after which
let the Governor of the State call
a State convention of farmers for
organization looking to the carry
ing out in good faith of the agree
ment, and in the meantime let the
Commissioner of Agriculture bring
the plan to the attention of the
proper officials in the other cotton
growing States end ask their speedy
co-operation.

The thumb 1B au unfailing Index
Of character. The Square Type in
dicates a Btrong will, great energy
and firmness. Closely allied is the
Spatulated Type, the thumb of those
of advanced ideas and bnslnesc
ability. Both of these types belong
to the busy man or woman; and
Demorest'a Family Magazine pre
pares especially for auch persons a
whole volume of new ideas, con
densed in a small space, so that the
record of the whole world's work
for a month may be read in half an
hour. The Conical Type indicates
refinement, culture, and a love of
music, poetry, and fiction. A person
with this type of thumb will thor
oughly enjoy the literary attractions
of Demorest's Magazine. The Ar

beauty ana art, which will find rare
pleasure in the magnificent oil-plct
ure of roses, x24 inches, repro
duced from the original painting by
Dc Longpr?, the most celebrated of
living flower-painters, which will
be given to every subscriber to
Demorest's Magazine for 1895. The
cost of this superb work of art was
$350.00; and the reproduction
cannot be distinguished from the
original. Besides this, an exquisit?
oil or water-color picture ls pub

the Magazine is, in reality, a port
