Tbe Browns, charged with killing j St ite constable at Blackville a short ; ^bile ago, were tried at Barnwell j I -* week, and were acquitted. The ' - * < 1 * j 'i v was composed largely 01 Anil- i Tillmanites. and hence the verdict | as by no means a surprise. The Columbia Register seems to doubt the appropriateness of a State exchange, informing its readers "that Christmas will come on the 25th of December this year.*' When we remember that these are "record-breaking times," and that, unexpected and startling events are always happening, the announcement that there will be no change in the accepted birth day of the Savior this year, comes with peculiar force and appropriateness. This much has been accomplished by the announcement. The juveniles through out the State were fearful lest Gov. Tillman should postpone the festivals of this occasion, and by the assurance that they would not be postponed, was joyous news to many a desponding little heart. Senator Butler has petitioned the State Supreme Court for an injunction restraining Comptroller General Ellerbe from issuing his wan-ant to Supervisors of Registration and Treasurer Bates from paying the same, on the ground that the registration law is unconstitutional and that "it deprives voters of their rights."' It certainly took Gen. Butler a good many years to discover ihflt. the law under which he was elected United States Senator and served so many years at such a large salary was unconstitutional. Is it not some what a little peculiar that i ^ it was only after Gen. Butler had ^^l^^^^^ledhis pledge to abide the result of B^^fi^stumped the State in fl ^^andidacy and when ^LJ flaws in our V Heretofore Gen. Butler has bad a warm place in the hearts and eflections of the people of this State. They have honored him with one of highest offices in their gift and retained him in that office for a number of years, and it shows a spirit of ingratitude, to say the least of it, by betraying the confidence of the people by attempting to defeat his successful opponent by trying to establish the fact that our election law is unconstitutional. In our humble opinion this last move of Gen. Butler places him in an awkward position before the country if he is successful in his efforts before the courts, for it will show that hb has been receiving money as salary as United States Senator to which he was not entitled and to place himself right he will have to refund this money. Tribute of Respect. We, the members of Terrell Alliance, Xo. 8S7, Lorena, Lexington r?rtnnf.v_ Sv CL adoDt the following V- J 1 7 X W tribute of respect: Iu the early morning hours of October 25th, 1894, our beloved Chaplain, Brother J. Ballentinc, in obedience to his Masters summons, lay down by the wayside, and, with His sweet promises for a pillow; fell softly asleep. The loss our society sustained is j irreparable. His death causes a void that can never be filled. His -?__ unfaltering, untiring and unceasing efforts for the advancement of the interest of the society, of which he ?? - was the efficient Chaplian, were recognized and esteemed Grievously do we, the members of Terrell Alliance, realize that we have lost a wise counseller and liberal contributor, in whose noble life and practice was so consistent. His whole life was a sunny reflection of his religion, I - ? ? X- 1 I and tnat religion was to iuvc uuu tuu | keep bis commandments, the per- I _ feet measure of all Christian worth and excellence. To the stricken family, we extend our dearest sympathy and compassion, and, as God alone can heal such wounds, we commend them to Him for consolation in their hour of affliction. "We know full well, no tongue can tell how > * i i .r keenly tiiey must ieei toe ios? ui uue so near and dear, yet after all, it is >? God's call and He will make it plain for He is bis own interpreter, and to our listening ears there comes the sweet assuring message, grieve not for me, for all is well, yea all is well. C.

Doing a Great Yv'ork for Lexingtoti County. ^olfeand then a little sunshine falls into it^^biry, hum-drum life of a countrj^^ror to break the monotony of doing good unto others and in return receive nothing but blame and censuie. One of these pleasant and rare incidents happened to this editor last week when the mails brought to him a warm invitation from Mr W. T. Martin, Columbia's big wholesale grocer, to join him and some friends in a love feast and sacrement at the old Joel Goodwin Mill, in the lower portion of this county. lu company with the Foreman of of this office, we started to the rendezvous where the feast was to be spread. Our course lay through a beautiful and fertile section abounding in wood of many varities adapted to the manufacture of useful and ornamental articles for the comfort, convenience and pleasure tof man. A panorama of great possibilities lay stretched on all sides and before us as we traveled along, only awaiting the enterprising energy of modern appliances for their devolopment and utilization. On every hand abundant evirJenees of the natural fertility of the soil and vast capabilities of. production were seen, targe tracts of rich land, which, under a state of cultivation would be a bonanza to their .owner, now lie in a state of primeval nature. We arrived at our destination at about 10 o'clock and a short time after Mr. Martin and his friends arrived from Columbia. We found much to our surprise as well as pleasure that Mr. Martin had made many improvements on the property since he purchased it. I*Ie owns about 1,000 acres, a portion of which is under a high state of cultivation, a portion in virgin forests and still ii 1: anoiuei" purciuu uj-i nuitu u ma j;uui and mill. He has spent in the improvement and development of this property about 84,000. The old dam, a portion of which was washed away last summer during a freshet, has been repaired in a substantial manner at a big outlay of capital and labor; the old mill house, which was fast going to ruin under the decaying hand of time and neglect, has been thoroughly overhauled and repaired, and the old time crude machinery has been replaced by the latest improved and labor saving machineiy. The motive power *is furnished by an improved turbine .of sufficient capacity to meet the demands required of it. On the second floor is a tine grist mill to which is attached an apparatus for bolting meal, and the work done by this mill is first class in every particular and will compare-favorably with that of any other mill in the country; a well known Pratt gin and condenser, which for fineness of work has no superior on the market; a grain thresher also has a place on this floor. On the first floor is the shafting and belting, all bran new and the best that money could procure; an improved cotton press of the latest and best make; an Kngleburg rice iiuller and poiisner. The work done by this little machine is astonishing. The rice is of a superior quality and can only be told from that grown on the sea coast by an expert. Mr. Martin, while improving his own place, is doing a great work for the people in that section in more ways than one. By his energy and enterprise, he is infusing new life, new hopes and new aspirations into his neighbors by placing them in a position to help themselves. Mr. Martin is a man of enterprise, vast resources and a thorough business man, and Lexington is indeed fortunate in securing his assitance in the development of her resources. In addition to the improvements mentioned above, he intends to add a roller mill for the grinding of flour, and a cane mill and evaporaf r\-v>c* tvi o. After strolling over the place, we returned to the residence of Mr. Willie Stone, who is Mr. Martin's right bower, and has charge of his business, where we found an ample feast spread, consisting iaa part of "possums and taters," turkey, rice, and various kinds of cake and something which giveth its color in the glass but does not stingeth like an adder nor biteth like a serpent. Undoubtedly it was an elegant love feast and we enjoyed it immensely. Mrs. Stone certainly knows how to | prepare "possums'', for they were the I best we ever tasted, and this is say ? ? ? ? i- ~ ~ 1 n j mg a great/ ueui. \jtu. cxiaun.o tuc ! returned to Mr. Martin, Mr. and Mrs. Stone for a pleasant day, the rej memberance of which will ever be ! pleasant. -?.. | If the Baby is CuttingTeeth5 Be sure and use that old and well| tried remedy, Mrs. "Winslow's Sooth j ing Syrup for children teething.

NEW CROP ANI) FRESH SEED. A Great Thing foe Farmers. Mr. P. I ^Tjl H. Martin, of Madden, Laurens Co , is the agent for the seed of a little plant | which promises to save our farmers mil- j ! lions of dollars. It produces a berry that is very similar in all respects to coffee and can be easily raised in this climate. The Headlight has received a sample from Martin, and it has the same aromatic odor, and produces as delicions a beverage as the imported article. The seed is pnt up in i 25and 50 cents packages, and each seed produces a plant from which a pii.tr to a quart of coffee is gathered. It can be planted until June '20th, and matures in fodr months. Ky planting early two crops can be raised. Over 60 bushels have been produced from a single acre, and it can be raised for less than a cent per pound. The 50 cent packages will plant 200 hills.
