Bear in mind the entertainment in the opera nouse Friday night. Tho followiug is what haR bteu said of the performance at Union, S.

Many ladies and gentlemen were there who had not been seen in the opera ho?se for years. Mr. John A. Holland, of Ninety Six, the hustling representative of the manufacturers of the famous Krell piano informs us that not withstanding the fact that the ca pacity of the factory is very great and one of the best equipped in the county, having 120 thousand feet of floor space enough orders are now on file to tax the factory to iti fullest capacity to fill them by the first of January. This means that any one who contemplates buying a Krell piano could not get one be fore the new year. You can, how ever, place your order now and it will be shipped at the earliest pos sible date. That so large a factory cannot supply the demand is a strong testimonial of itself for the Krell. ; Laughter.

Little Miss Ellen Dunovant,daugh ter of our popular merchant, Mr. W. L. Dunovant, won the prize over all the other competitors in South Carolina. This is a great compliment to Edgefield's little artist and to her teacher, Miss Eliza Mims. Another Small Fire. Last Sabbath's stillness was bro ken about two o'clock in the after noon by another startling fire alarm. The well-house in the yard of Judge W. F. Roath had caught from tome unknown cause, pre sumably spontaneous combustion or rats and matches. This small house was totally destroyed and as the flames were blown directly toward the dwelling it wculd have burned also but for the chemical engine. The two fires in which the engine lias been used occurred nearly a mile from the engine house and base of supplies, yet, against odds, it has performed its part well. Considering the nar row escape of having his home burned we are delighted that our good neighbor's misfortune was no greater than it was. The College Building. The suspense and anxiety of our people caused by the possibility of our not being able to get such a school building as the needs of the the town require for the sum at our command have been dissip ated. The contract has been let to Mr. C. W. Spencer of North Caro lina, a contractor of considerable prominence, and. by the way, a brother of Suparinteudent Spencer of the cotton mill. At the earliest possible moment after the de tails of the contract have been ar ranged ground will be broken and the old academy grove will be the scene of an array of brick masons, carpenters and laborers each doing with all his might the task assign ed him. It goes without saying that Mr. Spencer will press for ward with all possible despatch for on this, having a maximum of work done in a minimum of time, hangs largely his profits. Such be ing the case, with no untoward circumstance retarding the pro gress, the S. C. C. I. will be quar tered in the new college building after the lajisa of only a few months.
