COURT ITEMS.
Our March term of court was
convened promptly at 10 a. m. on
Monday, Judge Benet presiding.
And he presides with the dignity
and courtesy of the old-time a-fore
the war judges and chancellors.
He talks like a judge, wisely and
well ; he looks like a judge, and
the people of Edgefield respect
bim, aud regard him as "the right
man in the right place." His
charge to the grand jury was able,
clear and directly to the point.
And we are always glad when he is
with us. ? j
The grand jury was organized at
the call of Clerk Hill, and Mr.
Luther Reece was elected foreman.
A compliment to Mr. Reece, aud a(
worthy selection for the place as
signed him.
Two little negro girls, Daisy
Gaston and Hattie Colliei ,. 12 and
13 years old, charged with larceny |
from ~ the. field-picking" 40 cents
worth of cotton, from. a patch m
December-were found guilty with
recommendation to mercy. Sen
tenced $10 each, or six weeks on
chain gang-Col. W. P. Calhoun
for the defendants.
Wiley Miles, house breaking and
larceny. . Guilty--15 months on
chain gang. S. iMcG. Simkins for
defendant.
Ellen Butler, assault and bat
tery. Plead guilty. Sealed sen
tence.
Pierce Green, house breaking and
larseny. Plead guilty. Sentence
9 months on chain gang.
Geo. Ware, burglary, an old
offender, plead guilty. Sentence,
5 years on the chain gang.
On Tuesday morning, Tom Guin
yard, Heyward Ware and Lawson
Hill, burglary and larceny. Plead
guilty. Sentence, three years each
on the chain gang.
By 12 o'clock Tuesday the grand
jury had finished their business,
submitted their presentment,
(which'we will publish next week)
received their pay certificates and
were wending their way home
wards. MessrR. Geo. Wise, S. H.
Menget, D. T. Grice, J. K. Blocker
and Walter Branson are the stand
ing committee for the year for the
grund jury to inspect the books of
the county officials, etc., etc., and
report at the next term of court.
! The last case, that against Caro
line Kimbrel, assault and battery
with intent to kill. Verdict, guilty.
Sentence, 8 months in the county
jail, or $50 fine. J. W. DeVore,
Esq., for defence.
"There ' being no further busi
ness" on the criminal side of court,
the jurors were dismissed, and the
court, as the Masons say, was
"closed in*short form." And after
about three-thirds of the jurors and
witnesses had provided themselves
with the requisite amount of the
.'chemically pure," and departed
hence, there was a deplorable
"et?lness" abounding throughout
our town.
It is understood that the
Prohibitionists will hold their
Convention before the' regular
Democratic Convention ia held.
This, it is supposed, is due to the
possibility of the regular Conven
tion passing some rule or adopt
ing some, oath or pledge which
would handicap the Prohibi
tionists. Some time ago the
Prohibitionists ran up against such
a snag, and they may be afraid ot
some such thing again and may
want to be the "early birds" in
the political field
' A $250,000 cotton factory at
Croft's mill has been chartered
This makes three quarters of a
million projected in cotton mills
in South Carolina last week. The
total for the year is $3,776,000, and
if this thing keeps on by the end
of the year 1900 South Carolina
will have $18,000,000 invested in
new cotton mills to say nothing ol
the old.
It ia reported at Montgomery,
Ala., that General Wheeler, who
is expected home noon from the
Philippines, will announce himseli
as a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for governor of
Alabama, and will not, therefore,
be a candidate . for renomination
to Congress from his distiict.
The souvenir badge of the Con
federate Beanion at Louisville,
May 30 to June 3, will be celluloid
canteen with the profile of Winnie
Davis, daughter of the Confederacy,
on the one side and the Winnie
Davis rose on the other.

Merry Makers Week in Augusta
Our correspondent in Angust?
writes: Few people outside o
Augusta realize the magnitude o
the coming Free Street Attractioni
which the Merry Makers As socia
tion will furnish the publio during
the week commencing April 23K
to 28th inclusive. For severa
years past this city has put on tb<
finest attractions during their galt
week but the show of this yea:
will surpass all past efforts ii
every particular.
A brief outline of the attractioni
are: The free performances 01
four large platforms to be erectec
on Broad street whore the fines'
artist that money and experienci
can procure. The Amusemen
Committee are now in correspond
ence with Theatrical managers- oi
the East who are booking theil
best attractions for Augusta
Aside from this one of the highes
class midways will be in full blas
on Broad street. Special atten
tion is called to the fact that th<
association will allow nothing thai
will be objectionable to the mosi
fastidious, to be presented.
The display of Fire Works giver
last were superb but that wore
does not express the magnitude
and beauty of this year's show
Exactly twice the amount of monej
expended for this attraction lasl
year will be spent this season.
The Floral parade will surpast
any like attraction given in the
Southern states. The assosiatior
have offered exceedingly handsome
prizes for the best decorated
vehicles of all varieties and in thii
manner mrnish all those desiring
to enter into the parade an in
centive to spend both time and
money to make their vehicles
superb. Augusta is noted the
world over for her beautiful women
therefore, what could present ?
more beautiful spectacle than c
parade nearly a mile in length anc
each vehicle occupied by one oi
more of our beautiful women?
The large number " of laboring
people of this section have signifi
ed their willingness and desire tc
co-operate with the.Merry Maken
and to assure the success of "In
dustrial Day" the services of Sia
Thousand men and children have
been offered. In this grand parade
a majority of the merchants wilj
have very attractive Floats thereby
furnishing the show with a grane
carnival effect.
Gen. Joe Wheeler, the most
admired and honored man of the
South and the hero of many ware
has been extended an invitation
to visit this city and participate
with the Morry Makers on Military
Day. On this day it is the desire
of the Association to have many
of the state troops to participate
in the Parade. At a meeting held al
the Augusta Evchange on Thurs
day the marchants the Savannah
River Improvement Company was
formed. The object of this or
ganization is to improve the
Savannah river as the name inplies
.The^orgauizatiori Will extend an
invitation to the residents of the
Savannah river valley and bring
hundreds of people . here to show
them the many advantges which
this vcity has over any other
Southern city. Every railroad
entering the city has signified its
intention of putting on the lowest
possible rates for this occasion
and aiding the Merry Makers in
every possible way.
The recent disastrous fires have
not materially affected the ac
comodationn of the city. Besides
the several large hotels that are
in the city, there are many com
modious boarding house and many
families have singified their will
ingness to take hoarders for this
occasion. The Merry Makers have
provided a Bureau of Information
for the accomodation of their
guests, where those desiring to

'Till we bayonet and mopje
All the Boers off the earth."
So they made their rifles popje
At the Boers on the kopje,
And they rushed up to the topje
Venting shouts of savage mirth.
When, alas, they reached the topje
Of the lofty, rocky kopje
The Boers had the dropje .

Co-Operative Road Making.
What farmers can do by co
operation in the matter of road
making is interestingly told by a
Michigan correspondent of the
Orange Judd Farmer. It is a
sandy country where the corres
pondent lives, and the toads were
generally poor throughout the
year. The town was poor also,
and refused to improve the high
ways. Then the farmers decided
to help themselves. About five
years ago twenty-five of them
came together a?d offered to haul
marl one day free if the township
would allow them to take the marl
from its bed. The township wa?
willing, aud about twenty men
volunteered to shovel and level the
marl, and so the first half mile
was laid. That road proved such
a success that the next year an
other half mile was put down.
This marl packed down so hard
and made such excellent bed fdr
gravel that the farmers donated
$225 and labor for about one
quarter mile of gravel.: This be
ing put on in what was always a
wet place, it was spread about
eight inches thick. Next year
$250 was collected and about one
half mile was put down spreading
this only about four inches. This
year only $100 was collected,. but
a quarter mile strip waB put down,
finishing the mile started five years J0
before. Besides this about a . hal "
mile of marl was put down ready
for gravel next fall. This action
of the farmers stirred up the]
townspeople *i large, and now the
town has offered to raise $600 fora _
gravel if the farmers will furnish^
the labor to shread it. That they
will do willingly.

Awful Crime in Georgia.
Carterville, Ga., March 9.
Details of a shocking murder in
Paulding county, twelve miles,
from here, is printed in tho News
today.
The victim was a young woman,
Miss Nell McDowell.
The girl had been reared by
Son Jones, an old man, and his
wife. The wife, it is stated,
charged her husband with giving
too much attention to the girl and
left him.
? neighbor of the old man says
that threats have been made to
report the two to the grand jury.
Sunday night, as the girl was
sitting by the fire, some one stuck
a shotgun through the window and
blew her head off.
Willie Jones, a son of the old
man, has been arrested charged
with the crime. The evidence
against him is circumstantial, but
very strong. The wadding from
the charge that killed the girl was
picked up. It was a piece of news
paper on which appeared part of
the cut of a chicken. The tracks
of the man who fired the
shot were just the size ol the shoe
woru by Willie Jones. In his
house a double-barrelled, muzzle
loading shotgun was found with
ooe barrel loaded and one empty.
The load was drawn and found to
he wadded with newspaper on
which was the balance of the
chicken cut.
What makes the tragedy of mor?
horror is, according to the infor
mant of the News, that the girl is
.said to be the daughter of the old
man and a half-sister to the man
who killed her.

The experimente of modern phy
sicians and scientists have
?stablished tho fact that many of
the germs of disease enter the body
3y the inhalation of air ladeu with
bacteria or microbes. These germs
ire very email but their work is
leadly. Still many of them are
?omparatively harmless in health;
3ut as soon as an organ is diseased
t is attacked. The experimets
)f Koch and others have shed much
ight upon this important subject
But up to the present time the
iulturo of bacteria appears to have
net with much better success than
;bei . destruction. As we can do
so little to destroy these minute
enemies, is not the most sensible
:our6e to strengthen and revitalize
the system so that it may repel
and resift their destructive in
fluence, and does it not seem vt ry
Utting that the revitalizing elemeut
mould enter the body through
nbalation of oxgen which is at
mee a revitalizer and germicide?
The experience-of years and the
ifstimouy of thousands show
Dompouiid Oxygeu to be the agent
jeeded.
If you. wish further infofmation
