Death of Mrs. H. J. Williams.
This estimable lady died at the home
of her son, Leon J. Williams, in Edge
field county, last Saturday morning,
Mrs. Williams was a sister of J. C. and
Orlando Sheppard, of Edgefield, an
aunt of Mrs. W.H. Yeldell, of Long
mires, Lafayette and Arthur Sheppard
of this place. She was G2 years old
and leaves a large circle of relatives
and friends to mourn her loss-Green
wood Journal.
Mrs. Elizabeth Nicholson.
The death of this aged and highly
esteemed lady at her home seven miles
north of Edgefield, on last Thursday
removes another one of our ancient
landmarks. Mrs. Nicholson was in
many respects a most remarkable wo
man. She was the mother of the late
Gen. B. E. Nicholson, at one time clerk
of court of Edgefield county. School
Commissioner A. R. Xicbolsod is an
other son. Mrs. Sumpter Boatwright
and Mrs. John Blocker, widow of the
late Capt. Blocker, are her only sur
viving daughters. Mrs. Nicholson was
87 years of age at the time of her
death, and during this long lease of
life was noted for her generous hos
pitality and uncompromising integ
rity. Previou- lo her m.-.rriage she
was a Miss Threewits, and was closely
related to Miss Emily Geiger of revo
lutionary fame. Many will mourn her
death as a {?personal bereavement who
were in no wise related, and to her own
family of children and grandchildren
their mourning will belong continued.
But she was a Christian and in this
they will find an abundant hope of
meeting beyond the vale of tears.

Let ?s Whoop I
Col. S. H. Hardwick, Ass't
Tass. Agent of the great Soi
Railway, was in our town on Wt
day last. In a short talk wit!
gentleman we learned that he 1
Edgerleld looking after the con
of the Gap road recently leased
line. He told us the policy c
Southern was never to bottle
town, but rn thor to build it up
ways they could legitimately,
generally speaking, the prosperi
the towns prospered the railroad
passed through them. The Oap
bed is already receiving much n
repairs. Xew coaches and engine
been put on, new cro?sties and t
timbers are already in situ, and
erally, old "Tumblin" is lookin;
(not up the spout, mind you.)
Hardwick intimated pretty stn
that a new passenger depot wot
built at thc present terminus o
road on Main street, doing away
the present depot except for fr
purposes. The most significant
encouraging thing' to us-in this m
is, not that our little road is to b
proved, but the simple fact thai
I Southern has "taken hold" of the
road at all. It means that the ant
ties of that road see something ii
deal, and if there is anytln g in i
them it is there likewise for the
of Edgefield. Let us whoop !
And Arthur Knows.
A. S. Tompkins, Esq., who has
returned from a trip in the cou
says that the rural "deestricts" ar
nearly so rural as you might supp
for-instance, you eat at the fart
table store bought Hour, store bo
grits, meat, lard, in fact everythii
bought instead of being grown or
farm. The smoke-house is abandi

The old corn crib of ante bellum ti
of generous proportions, still sta
but it is the most forlorn looking1
ject in all the landscape. It rein;
Arthur, with its one sack of she
corn sitting in the middle of the ll
of a single, solitary buzzard on
dead limb of a blasted pine tree,
thur says the farmer having aband
ed the smoke-house to the rats and
rats having ail died, the farmer i
has appropriated a little GxS root
his dwelling to hold his rations. A*?
into this little hole and you will s<
little sack of so-called Hour in one <

sack of meal and gaits, and that J

tied to a string from the joist, tba
all. Xo wonder the farmer man doe?
ask you to "light and stay all nig
as he used to in the good old fat tir
before the war. Ile just can't afl'or
and you wouldn't enjoy it either,
asking a fellow to "light and stay

general assurance that he wasn't bi

ask bim to "light" you may be sure

you can't fill him up to your satisf;
tion or his either. Arthur says he si
only one good result from the dei
dance of the corn crib and the smol
house, it is this : The rats have neal
all left the country.
The Standard Square Bale.
To Cotton Ginners:
We take the liberty of callii
your attention to the imr>~rtan<
of exerting all your efforts .ii favi
of the adoption of the standar
size cotton bale, which is a ba
made iu a press-box, rneasurii
on the inside, 24 inches wide b
54 inches long, and deep enou^
to make a bale weighing abor
500 pouuds.
The complaints made by tl
Transportation Companies and tl
Foreign Mills, about the di
Acuities of stowing different s?2
bales, and the damaged conditio
in which the American cotton i
received, are so numerous that w
are eure a great discrimim
tion will be made against ou
cotton next season, unless there i
a change made and au universa
size bale adopted and enforced.
After a number of experiment
with bales of all the difieren
sizes it was found that the bes
results could be had irom thos
made in press-boxes 24 inche
wide by 54 inches long, and thi
size has been adopted as the stand
ard by all the Cotton Grower
Associations in the Western au<
Gulf States; also by the Conven
tion in Allanta, Ga., last May.
This size (24x54) was found t<
press to a greater density
and when pressed at the Compress
the bagging usually placed on i
bale of cotton would then cove;
the bale completely and preven
any damage.
j It is well understood that th(
more cotton that can be stowec
in a steamer, the less thc freight
and consequently, the more the
cotton grower will receive tor h if
crop. It naturally seems that t
few inches in ihe size of bales
would make no difference, but ?J
few inches running irregularly
through an ocean steamer aniouutf.
to a great loss of space, and in
stowing bales of irregular sizes,
they are so screwed in odd shaped
spaces as to often break, and
nearly always are torn and
twisted out of shape by the time
they reach the Foreign Ports.
The lost spaces also form air pas
sages and in case of afire the dam
age is much greater, consequently
the insurance is higher than it
should be. The same complaints
are made by the Railroads, and by
the Mills when they put their
cotton in Warehouses.
We think we have fully explained
the reasons for thia change, aud
that it is to your interest to do all
that is in your power to have
every one make this change by
uaxt season. As a general rule,
press-boxes will have to be made
smaller, either one -way or both.
This can be done with very little
expense by lining the inside with
boards, one lining on another
where the size is to be reduced
several indies. Theri the follow
block can be sawn oft' to fit the
box. The cost of making this
change in most cases will not
exceed $5.00. This amount is too
small to spare, and thereby con
tinue to suffer the loss caused
by discriminations in the past, as
well as additional ones that will
surely follow.
The European mills use about
three-fourths of our cotton crop,
and of course they have a great
deal to do with the price of cotton,
therefore it is to our interest to see
that it is in the condition they want
it, and "by reducing the damage
and the cost of transportation, the
grower will get that much more
for his cotton.
We have received letters from
a majority of the Ginners in our
territory, and they promise to alter
their press-boxes to the standard
size. We respectfully solicit the
co-operation of all growers, and
those interested in the cotton crop,
to urge upon the Ginners the
importance of making all bales of
the standard size, as the success
of this movement and the benefits
to be derived from it, depend upon
them. We are confident that a
large majority of the Ginuers will
make this charge, but it is necess
ary that the change be as near
universal as possible.
We are anxious to hear from
those that are interested in this
movement, and especially those
that have made this change.
Yours very truly.

Johu J. McMahan.
The opinion of The Press and
Staudard, based upon the general
expressions of the people, is that
McMahan will lead the race for
State Superintendent of Education
in Colleton county.
From personal contact with him,
and from his reputation as an
educator, we conclude that Jhe is
eminently worthy of the position
he seeks.
The Calhoun Gazette pays him
the following warm tribute:
"His whole existence seems
to be wrapped up in a desire to
disseminate knowledge, a wish to
broaden and enlighten the minds
of his fellow-creatures. No man
ever had a higher purpose.in
seeking on office, because there he
believes he cp.u best use the
powers of his heart to advance
the educahou of the poor youths
of this State, because he knows, as
few know, their crying need. We
