Edenfield Advertiser WEDNESDAY, JULY 12. ?iiiiiiiuiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiii ? LOCAL AND PEESONAL. ? iiuiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiitiuiiul?iiiiiiiiiii? The wife of Capt. Du Bose is, we are pained to Btate, very ill at her residence in our town. Mr. P. B. Day, one of Trenton's prosperous farmers, was in town on Monday of this week. Scoot Gray has a variety of snap beans, two of w dcb. will make a mess for three or four persons, they are, some of them, three feet long. The cool nights of the past week have had a tendency to check the growth of cotton, but this is no disadvantage where the weed is large enough, for checking the growth of the plant tends to the making of fruit. The Edgefield Light Dragoons will have their annnal picnic and barbecue oh Thursday, July 27th inst. Particu lars later. This bids fair to be the largest gathering ever held at Centre Spring. Belles and beaux have your lamps trimmed and ready. The discussion as to building a school house for Prof. Bailey has caused a looking into the lines of the old Academy lot and in finding oat ex actly where they run. Mr. S. Mouzon Smith is making a survey and plot of the whole lot, so that future genera tions who will then be patronizing the great big college with students from all the "States, can look back and see from what "small acorns big oaks grow." Aiken is a flourishing and progres sive little city. There they have elec tric lights, water works, two artesian wells? a splendid system of sewerage and magnificent school buildings. For all these privileges the people have bonded their city heavily, and have to pay special tax?s amounting to fifteen mills tb cover interest on their bonds. But they murmur not, nor complain, but pay their taxes will ingly, knowiog that it is to their inter est individually and collectively. Greenwood has a like tax, though smaller, in fact all "get there" towns are obliged to do these things or die the death of stagnation and decayt Would it not pay us Edgefield people to follow in Aiken's wide-a-wake and prosperous footsteps? Mr. J. D. May, one of the most pop alar salesmen of James Daly & Con has I returned from Edgefield, S. C., where fae acted as best man for his brother, whose marriage to Miss Sheppard as announced in Saturday's Chronicle, W5S one of the most prominent social events that bas occurred in South Caro lina in some time. A little incident of the trip is the fact that Jeff went over a 'confirmed bachelor and returned a ?wain. The change is something r velous, and those who are not on inside are wondering what strange floence has come over him. He_wa "T?FIS??e3i "lo"great style and lost heart completely in the berg of fei. loveliness.-Augusta Herald. Dr. T., from a certain dead town near bj, was io Greenwood a fj^. aays since, and meeting Mr. J. K. D., Dr. T asked the latter, "How in the world do you people manage to pay your big special town taxes?" Mr. D. smiled a happy smile and said, "Why, my dear Doctor, we love to pay that tows demand for bond interest money, because it pays us to have to pay our town taxes. We .are now a booming little city with all the improvements and conveniences bf city life-everything is life arid ac tivity-and we are better able to pay our special tax of ten mills now than we were to pay a street tax of two mills in the olden slow-coach times." And Dr. T. "pulled down his vest" and went on his way-a thinking and a-thinking. Unique in Style and of High Grade Finish. The very plain and yet very handsome ? monument recently erected in oar cemetery to the memory of the late Mr. R. Augustas Tompkins is a most beautiful tribute of love and affection from a beloved and devoted mother. Mrs. D. R. Du ri eoe, to an idolized son-a son true and warm-hearted, and a worthy manly man. It is certainly unique in style-some thing totally without like or sem blance in our cemetery ; and lias won the admiration and commen dation of all who have had the pleasure of inspecting it. This artistic tomb or monument! is very creditable to Mr. W. A. Langston, of tho firm of Smith & Langston, dealers in granite and marble work of all kinds, of our town, and we cheerfully recom mend them to all in want of any thing in their line of business. May-Sheppard. On Thursday evening last in our Baptist church Mr. Charles Elliott May and Miss Marie Sheppard were united in the holy bonds of matrimony by Dr. L. R. Gwaltney. The church was beautifully decor ated and the ceremonies were im pressive, The following were the groomsmen and bridesmaids : Miss Effie Allen with Mr. Edgar Fuller, Miss Virginia Addison with Dr. G. T. Sharpton, Miss Helen Sheppard with Mr Frank Fair, Miss Linie Mime with Mr. James Kennerly Mips Lula Jones with Mr. James Dafter, Miss Effie Sheppard with Dr. Robert Marsh, Miss Lena Stevens with Mr. Julian Hart, Miss Jackie Stevens with Mr. Wal ter Sheppard. The maid of honor was Miss Hettie Shephard, sister of the bride, and thu best mau Mr. Davis May, of Augusta, Ga. Mr. May is one of Edgefield's promising merchants, and. Miss Marie is a daughter of "Mrer. Dr. W. Scott Sheppard of our town. After tue marriage ceremony the happy couple with invited guests repaired to the residence of the bride's mother, where a sumptuous repast awaited them, Committees for 24tli Annual Picnic at Lanham's Spring. r.'he following is the list of cora . .;tees for the 24th annual picnic at Lanham's Spring, July 19th : Capt.

Lake and Members of Abner Perrin Camp,U. C. V.: Gentlemen-The duty of thank ing you for the honor you coDferred upon nae in electing me your spon sor at the Charleston Reunion af fords me aime st as much pleasure as the pei formance of the pleasant duties of that office. I appreciate highly th3 compliment you have paid me, for as a daughter of South Carolina, ar?'1 ~? ** ooiuiers were denier than at their annual re- '. unions, and once to hear the shout of the unconquered veterans who followed Hampton and Lee brings i more vividly to the mind of South ern youth the spirit by which they were actuated than could volumes ? of history. In choosing me your sponsor I feel that the comrades of my father but expressed their appreciation for a brother in arms who bore throughout life an undying devo tion to the Confederate flag, and a brother's love for all who served under it. In commemorating your deeds and emulating your glorious achievements the sons and daugh ters of the Confederacy shall al ways honor themselves in honor- i ing you, for whatever is grand and : great and patriotic in our aun?is has its noblest culmination .n the mighty struggle for the right which the South made in the war between 1 the States.

Charbon (sharbon) is not a new disease, but rather a new name for an old disease that carries off horses and cattle in Louisiana. It is contagious and some men have contruced it from horses they were treating. It is generally fatal. Already one may see signs of the county campaign of 1900.

Mr. Pratt has made a thorough investigation of the Roundlap bale in his mill, and recently published a letter, in which he said that cotton ia this form was worth $2.00 a bale more to his mill than square-balo cotton. Recently he telegraphed as follows : "After two years experience with the Roundlap bale of the American Cotton Company as a manufac turer, lean positively state that my experience is that it can be sample equally as well as the square bale ; that it saves 8 per cent, in waste; that it unwinds to the core perfectly, and saves much labor in the opening-room.
