There will be no greater attraction
in Columbia during Fair week than
the-tempting array of fine family
and plantation groceries to be seen
at Piatt, Hook & Shull's. This
firm has a reputation of keeping the
best goods for the least money and
having this reputation to sustain the
customer can rest assured that every
article purchased there is of the very
highest standard at the very lowest
price. '
The reunion of the Georgia Confederate
Veterans at Augusta, on the
14th, I5ch and 16th of November
promises to be a memorable occasion
and many will doubtless attend
from this place. We have been requested
to say to the members of
Camp Steadman, who wi?h to go
with the Camp, to notify Col. M. D
Barman, at W. P. Roof's store in
this place, at once.
A new short story by R >bert Barr,
entitled "The Wizard of Wall Street,"
in Everybody's Magazine for November,
has never been exceeded in its
quality of interest by anything, from
the pen of that popular writer. In
its conception of certain Wall Steeet
types, it is peculiarly true to life. A
story on tramp life, entitled "A Dead
Ooe," is remarkably impressive, while
the philosophy of this creature of
the Under World is most entertaining.
Mash Wise, an old colored man
of this neighborhood, died last week
at his home just beyond the depot.
He was perhaps at the time of his
j death the oldest resident hereabouts
! baviDg beeD a faithful and trusted
servant in the Wise family, the members
of which he has seen grow up
for several generations. He was a
quif t, peaceable and industrious
d??kie and was familiarly known as
"Uncle Mash " The old time south
ern negro, who were noted for their
docility, faithfulness and reliableness
are fast passing away to j >in their
Massers and Misses on the other side.
Obituaries.
Miss M iry Wise Sbull was bom
near old G aLby November 23, 1832,
and died at the home of her sister in
]>wiedale, October 13, 1900. Her
earthly pilgrimage being G7 years,
10 months aDd 19 days. In early
life she j lined the Methodist church
and for over 50 years was a partaker
of the blessings which fall to the
true children of God.
Her Bible was her daily companion
and the precious words of life
were at all limes a solace to her soul.
She loved her Lord and tried to
imitate bis example in all things.
She leaves one lister (to whom she
had been a companion all her lift)
and a brother, who are both following
after, and may God keep them
steadfast until the resurrecting day
comes. Her Pastor.
Catherine Gable was born December
15th, 1830. and departed this transi
tory life October 25tb, 1900 Sifter
Gable was fcuptized in infancy and in
eirly life took upon herself the vows
of the Church of her choice, to
which she remained faithful until the
end of her earthly pilgiimage.
She loved her church dearly and
was found in her placet during her
life, unless providentially hindered.
She was a member of Zion Evangeli
cal Lutheran church and beautifully
adorned the doctrine Bhe professed
by a Godly, upright and consistent
Christian life.
The- Master's call to cease from
earthly toils and trials and to come
up higher found her prepared and
she calmly and sweetly laid down
her woik and the weary heart ceased
to beat and the tired hands we folded.
He had given his beloved sleep.
Her funeral services were attended
by the writer. W. D Quick.

one of harmony and the reports *

tion. The body decided to establish *'
more missionary efforts in the county, ?
establish its faith and practice in t
new fields and has placed the matter ?
in ?V)o Hanrlti nf thA F.TAAntivA r
Committee. The Association was
decidedly expansive in feeling. It
was a progressive and determined
ga'hering of intelligent Christian
men and women and one where both
preacher and laymen met on common
ground and each the equal of the
other and all representing the intensely
imperialistic spirit of the
Master's Kingdom. It will meet
next October with the Baptist
church at Lexington, C. H , for consultation
over the future of this

All the future of our great republic j

the grandest triumphs of the human

emancipation from political eeifdcm !
