WEDNESDAY. JUXE 22.
LOGAIa BREVITIES.
Now for pease, put 'em in !
Miss Helen Sheppard is at home
from Converse College, f,
Mr. J. Foster Cheatham had cotton
blooms on the 13th of June.
Many of the wells in our community
are very low in their supply of water.
Mrs. Carrie Miller is visiting her
mother, Mrs. Tda Sheppard, in our
town1.
Prof. Bailey will spend a few weeks
rusticating in the mountains of North
Carolina.
Abundant and glorious rains have
fallen in this community within the
part Tew days.
Private Bussey, of the Abbeville
Company, is at his home, Parksville, on
a recruiting expedition.
The County Board of Control of
Edgefield will ho'd their monthly
meetings in the Grand Jury room.
Mr. D. R. Durisoe has removed his
office to the store room adjacent to and
in rear of the Bank of Edgrefield.
Judge Gage will preside at our Au
gust term of court. This will be the
judge's first appearance at Edgefield.
The State of Deleware has only three
counties, the same number that Edge
field had before she was dismembered
and dismantled.
Maj. W. T. Gary, a candidate for
Judge of the Augusta (Ga.) Circuit
Court. We hope he may win and so
does all Edgefield.
We are requested to announce that
the Rev. P. P. Blalock will preach at
Berea Baptist church on the 1st Sun
day in July at ll A. M.
The report is current on our streets
that the Southern Railway has bought
the Cumberland Gap and will at once
finish up this line to Greenwood.
The crop of candidates is groking
slowly but steadily. If all men would
be all the time as sweet-mouthed and
tender-hearted as are candidates, what
a heaven-on-earth there would be.
Since the failure of Leiter, the great
wheat manipulator of Chicago, dour
has receded to its almost normal fig
ures, and perhaps the new crop ol'
wheat just now coming in has much
to do with it.
'.We like Mr. Bussey's letter in the
ADVERTISER of last week so much.''
This is what our subscribers tell us
and write us. We hope to. hear soon
again from the boys in camp through
Chaplain Bussey.
In the recent meeting of the trustees
of Furman University Mr. L. F. Dorn,
of Parksville, was present and took a
conspicuous part in the proceedings.
Mr. Dorn has for many years held this
important position, and is always va
friend to education and a worker'in
the cause.

Frank Leslie's Weekly, both one year
for $3.50, or both six months for $1.75

tlesbips and battles, generals and
horses, and a few privates now and
then.
Jones was dead, and a bulletin stat
ing that Geo. S. Jones, Esq., had de
parted this life for heaven at 12 M.,
was posted by a sympathetic family on
the door. A passing wag, full of mis
chief, placed the following notice on a
telegraph sheet under that of the
family :
Heaven, 12.30 P. M.
"Jones not arrived. Excitement in
tense."
The postoltice department asks the
press to publish this notice:''Rela
tives and friends of soldiers in the
held, in addressing letters to them,
should mark plainly the company and
regiment to which they belong, as by
doing so the distribution of the mail
will oe facilitated. This applies to
both the regular troops and the militlo
volunteers."
Contractor J. J. Bell is just now en
gaged in building a number of fiat
cars, or gondolas, for the Cumberland
Gap road. This work is being done at
the terminus of the road in the fiat
just below Mr. D. R. Durisoe's resi
dence on Main street. By the way, a
passenger ticket office is*soon to be
erected at this place, whence the trains
will make their departures and arrivals
instead of at and from the freight de
pot as is at present the rule.
Our young friend W. G. Ouzts was
at home for a few daya last week
Wiley is at present a conductor on the
railroad that runs from Savannah, Ga.
to Montgomery, Ala , with headquar
ters at the first named city. In a few
years we expect to see him go higher.
There is no better place in which to
begin a career than railroad employ,
if you have the stamina, the push,
and the ability. Friend Wliey has all
these and of course that settles it.
We are glad to bear that Uncle Billy
Burrell, of Trenton, who had a stroke
Of paralysis some weeks since, is much
better. He has recovered in part his
power of speech and locomotion, can
talk and walk again, not so well as be
fore, but well enough to give rejoic
ing to his many friends who have
always loved him for his genial dis
position and kind heart. We never
heard a man, woman or child on God's
green earth say aught against Uncle
Billy Burrell.

Speaking of the arrival of the First
South Carolina Regiment of Volun
teers at Chickamauga Park, the Chat
tanooga Times says : "Whatever this
regiment may have lacked in the way
of equipment, they made up for in dis
cipline, which was far better than that
of any volunteer regiment now at the
park. Their manner of leaving the
train and receiving coffee reminded
one of the regulars, and it is said that
if not better than the regulars. The
companies act like parts of a machine,
responding readily and easily to every
command.

Prof. F. N. K. Bailey has. been in our
town for several days and has made a
most favorable impression, in fact our
people are delighted with him. He
impresses one with the conviction that
he is a Christian gentleman first, and
after that, that he is a born hustler, a
school builder, and a town builder.
Shall we hold up his hands? Yos, as
high as the sky! Xext week or later
we shall enter more into details as to
the South Carolina Co-Educational
Institute, now located at Edgefield,
and of Prof. Bailey's personalty and
lineage. We knew, his farber and
mother for twenty-five years, and
know that they were of the noblest and
best of God s creation.

Ex-Senator John J. Ingalls, ot
Kansas, whose fame as a brilliant
writer, aman of remarkable schol
arship and literary attainments,
is even greater than that of " the
distinguished senator, aunounces
a new book on the subject of the
Americau Spanish-Cuban War.
It is entitled "America's War For
Humanity in Picture and Story."
It is published by the N. D.
Thompson Pub. Co.. of St. Louis,
Mc, and is an exhaustiva discus
sion of the cause of the war, and
equally exhaustive history of its
incidents, and a brilliant analysis
of the famous characters conduc
ting it. It promises to be the one
great and. popular wo:k called
forth by this wonderfully interes
ting national episode. Whatever
Senator Ingalls touches he adorns ;
and this book shines and sparkles
in the light of his genius. The
present work is worthy of his
genius, and will be a monument
his fame. The subject now so
ungrosses the popular mind as to
forecast for this book a sale that
will b,e universal, It will be sold
by subscription only, and the
canvassing samples are now ready
for agents. We advertise it in
another column,
THE SOUTH CAROLINA CO
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTE.
The following account of the
closing exercises of the South
Carolina Co-Educational Institute,
receutly held at Williston, S. C.,
we clip from the Baptist Courier
of last week. As- this Institi :e
comes to Edgefield this fall our
people will be glad to see and to
know in what esteem the Institute
and Prof. Bailey are held ac Wil
lis ton, where he has been for a
number of years :
"The last and most (Successful
session of the South Carolina Co
Educational Institute was brought
to a close last week with its best
commencement exercises. I should
have said the last in Williston.
Prof. Bailey will open next
session in Edgefield.
At the commencement there
were eleven full graduates: Miss
Sue Williams, Colleton Co.; Miss
E. Williams, Colletou Co. ; E. A.
Marvin, Colleton Co.;J. E. Webb,
Barnwell Co. ; Furman Tisdale,
Sumter Co.; S. B. W. Courtney,
Williamsbrg Co.; E. S. Harley,
Barnwell Co.; Miss Gabriella
Miller, Bamberg Co.; T. E. Bruce,
Barnwell Co.; S. D. Cain, Sumter
Co. ; W. G. Cain, Sumter Co. The
following are partial graduates :
Miss Rosa Ayer, Bamberg Co.;
Miss Lucia "Matthews, Barnwell
Co. ; Miss Mary A. Weathersbee,
Barnwell Co.; J. E. Kennedy,
Barnwell Co. All these, except
one, read essays at their gradua
tion, which were papers of decided
merit.
It would be difficult to bring
together for speech-making, etc.,
better? talent than we enjoyed
during the commencement. Rev.
W. E. Thayer preached the com
mencement sermon, Dr. A. P. Mon
tague, Col. Robt. Aldrich, and
Hon. Geo. D. Tillman delivered
addresses. Further comment is
unnecessary on this subject.
Such a closing, though,. as we
had ! Prof. Bailey, in a well chosen
address, announced that the South
Carolina Co-Educational Institute
would no longer do its work in
Williston, but would be removed
to Edgefield C. H., where he has
been offered very superior advant
age's in buildings both for
dormitories and recitation halls.
At the close of this saddening
speech, Rev. J.D. Huggins, on the
part of the old students, the board
of trustees and patrons, presented
Professor Bailey with a gold
watch and chain. With sor
rowing hearts and weep
ing eyes, on the part of a great
many, the congregation broke up,
and the members of the Alumna?
Associations, with invited guests,
met in a banquet. Here there
were many farewell speeches made ,
and many hearts fouud relief to
their grief in weeping. How could
we help it? We did not try to help
it; we didn't wish to help it.
Our faces are all to the fufure,
all hoping for still be'ter things,
with honest determination to do
better. What is the past worth
uuless we do?
In bis farewell talk, Prof. Bailey
announed that the trustees Had
secured Prof. J. E. Sanders, of
Batesburg, as princial of the
Willistou School for another year.
In CDnclusiou, we believe we are
to be congratulated in having
Prof. Sanders to tuke charge of
pur school, and we know that
Edgefield is to be congratulated
because Prof. F. N. K. Bailey and
the South Carolina Co-Educational
Institute are to live and work with
them.'
ENDORSED BY TRUSTEES.
Upon receipt ol the notification
that Prof. Bailey would leave Wil
liston, where he has been so ac
ceptably and successfully conduct
ing the South Carolina Co-Educa
tional Institute for several years
past, the trustees met and pabsed
the following highly eulogistic
r solutions :
Inasmuch as the time has come
when Prof. F. N. K. Bailey sees
fit to sever his connection with us
as president of the Sounth Carolina
Coeducational institute; and
whereas we have most abundant
and substantial evidence of the
great benefit he has been to us as
trustees, in bringing our school up
to a high point of excellence, and
the incalculable blessing he has
been to our community through
his indomitable courage, untiriim
labors and piom living, ahown in
his life, in society, in the church
and in the school, therefore, be it
resolved :
First, That in his departure
from our community we lose one
amongst the l?est and most useful
of men ; one, though, whose worth
will be appreciated whorever he
may go.
Second, That with sincere grati
tude we ihall always remember
his labors of love and interest.
Third, That with genuine regret
we deplore our loss,

A CHRISTIAN GENTLEMAN,
The high regard entertained for
Prof, Bailey as an earnest Chris-,
tiau worker is indicated by the
following resolutions of the B, Y.
P. U. of Williston recently adopt
ed:
Whereas, Prof. F. N. K. Bailey,
as president of the B. Y. P. U. of
Willistou, has, by his earne?t
devotion to duty and love for the
work, rendered valuable service to
the cause ; and.
Whereas he, by his Christian
influence, spiritual advice has been
an incentive to the members of the
Union; therefore be it.
Resolved, 1. That in losing him
we realize that a noble worker has
gone from our midst.
2. That tiie thanks of the Union
be extended to him for his'
inestimable aid given.
3. That a copy of these resolu
tions be sent to Prof. Bailey and
also published in the Barnwell
People and The Baptist Courier.

"BET?RE BABY M BOEN."
A Valuable Little Book of Interest
to All Women Sent Free.
Every woman looks forward with feel
ings of indescribable joy to the one mo
mentous event of her life,compared with
which all others pal? into insignifi
cance. How proud and happy she will
be when her precious babe nestles on
her breast -how Bweet the name of
"Mother!" And yet her happy antici
pation of this event is clouded with
mh'?ivings of the pain and danger of
the ordeal, so that it is impossible to
ivoid the feeling of constant dread
rhich creeps over her. The danger
and suffering attendant upon being a
mother can be entirely prevented, so
that the coming of the little stranger
need not be looked forward to with
fear and trembling, as is so often the
case. Every woman who reads this
paper can obtain absolutely free a val
uable and attractive little book enti
tled "Before Baby is Born," by sending
her name and address to the Bradfield
Regulator Co., Atlanta, Ga. ThiB book
contains priceless information to all
women, and no one should fail to Bend
for it.
Little
Pimples Turn
to Cancer.
Cancer often results from an im
purity in the blood, inherited from
generations back. Few people are en
tirely free from some taint in the blood,
(ind it is impossible to tell when it will
break out in the form of dreaded Can
cer. What has appeared to be a mere
Eilmple or scratch has developed into
he most malignant Cancer.
"I had a severe Caa cor which -was at first
only a fp-w bio tehee, that I thought would
?ooo paas away. I was
treated by several able
pay6lclana, but in spite
of tbclr efforts the Can
cer spread until my con
dl tlon beoame alarming.
After many months of
treatment and growing
steadily worse, I de
olded to try S. S. S.
which was so strongly
recommended. The first
bottle produced an im
provement. I continued
the medicine, and in
four months the last lit
tle scab dropped off.
t ^ ff ' w Ten years have elapsed,
IM not a sign of the disease has returned?'
R. F. WlLMAMS,
Gillsburg, Miss.
It is dangerous to experiment with
Cancer. Tue disease is beyond the skill
of physicians. S. S. S. ia the only cure,
because it is the only remedy which
goes deep enough to reach Cancer.
For
?The
Blood
(Swift's Specific) is the only blood
remedy guaranteed Purely Vegetable.
All others contain potash and mer
cury, the most dangerous of minerals.
