Gov't Report Baking Ely PURE | The Republican Pew Wow. | The was a some what enthusiast'c montinnr nf the "black and tani; Re I ? publicans, interspersed with a sma'i sprinkling of Lily "Whites, in the court house at this place last Saturday. Tie convention assembled in re sponse to a call issued by County Chairman A. W. Johnson, who is the Lexington Lieutenant of the MeltonBrayton faction of the g. o. p., for the purpose of electingfour delegates to the State convention, which met in Columbia yesterday and elected four delegates to the National convention; and also to elect four dele11 ^ ?nr\r\ rnn. gates tO 1118 ^/OiiJJieooiwua* \.V/U ivu tion which meets at St. Matthews on the 17th. This convention will also elect delegates to the National convention. The several township clubs were represented by full dele gations, Col. D. J. Knotts, the latest convert to Republicanism, being prominent among the number. The convention was called to order by the County Chairman, and after prayer by the Rev. A. Bradford, was temporarily organized by the election of M. E. Boozer, chairman, and Rev. H. E. Lewis, Secretary. a yvf nno from del XX \j\J LLI LLi 1UU&& v> vu^ A.v? elation was appointed, as a committje on credentials, and reported that sixty-four delegates were entitled to seats, and they were all present. The convention was then permanently organized by the election of the temporary officers. Col. D. J. Knolts and Mr. E. M. Brayton were called upon and responded with ringing speeches on the issues confronting the people. The convention then went into an election for delegates to the State contion with the following result: D. J. Knotts, Simeon Corley, Rev. H. E. ? _ Ti .Lewis ana Ijouis xvump. AY. A. Smith, M. E. Boozer, A. W. Johnson and AY. B. Sewell are the delegates to the Congressional con vention. A. AY. Johnson was re-elected County Chairman. T. S. Entzminger was elected Secretary and Henry Paris, Treasurer. The convention then adjourned sine die. The AYebsterites were simply not in it, their opponents, the Braytonites out voted them on all questions. ? The Spelling Bee. A large crowd of little folks, young folks and old folks attended the spelling bee at the Institute Friday evening. Some of the best spelJei s of the school and from the town entered the lists. Miss Pearl Spaim and Master Jules Bradford were chosen Captains, and the cautious manner they chose showed that the heart of each was set on victory, or at least, on defeat without dishonor. The sides lost about equally for awhile, but soon Pearl's supporters fell rapidly and at last all were on the mourner's bench, leaving Mrs. Muller and Misses Mary Henry and Ethel Dreher still standing on Jules' side?Jules himself having fallen sometime before. These three then spelt agaist each other. Miss Mary was the first to go, soon Mrs. Muller followed, leaving Miss Ethel, one of the Institute's brightest and best, the acnowledged victor. This over, the social and festive fnllntVftd. T. ft |JUI U Ui tut pVQi.M'-u -V? V ? cream and cake were served by Mr?. M. D. Harman, assisted by a bevy < f beautiful, smiling school gills. A large and beautiful cake was walked for by the little folks and won by Mif s Essie Efird and Master Meetze Muller. They generously divided it with their associates. The little folks then retired to one of the rooms in the building and enjoyed themselves hughly playing the innocent games which so delight children. Master Willie Caughman acted as master of ceremonies. The evening was thoroughly enjoyed by eveiy one present. Care was laid aside and a spirit of good cheer entered all. The bright sallies of Lexington's jovial lawyer, J. A. Muller, caused his fellow barristers to forget their knotty cases, and tne sparkling wit of our whole souled School Commissioner, J. D. Fair, caused his fellow county officials to become oblivious of the fact that this is campaign year. Financially, the Bee was quite a success. A Mysterious Fire. We regret to learn that Mrs. Decy Leaphart, who resides near White church, had the misfortune to lose her barn and its contents, consisting of about thirteen sacks of guano, corn, fodder, farming implements, ( etc., by fire Sunday night. The fire was discovered between 12 and 1 o'clock, and its origin is wrapt in mystery. This is a heavy blow for Mrs. Leaphart, as she is poor aud her supplies to run her the season i through were consumed. PENCIL AXD SCISSORS.
