"We regret to learn that Mr. Larkin Garvin met with a fatal accident on Tuesday, the 15fch. The following are the particulars as we have been able to gather them: Mr. Garvin was driving along the road Dear Wegener, and in turning out of the road to allow another buggy to pass, the wheels of his buggy dropped into a side ditch and the jar caused the e. i_r_ j._ nammer 01 ms gun iu bints an object, which discharged the gun and the entire load entered Mr. Garvin's left Bide causing death in about five hours. Although a resident of Aiken county, he was a native of Lexington and was veil and favorably known to many of our people who will regret to learn of his untimely and violent death. - One Minute Cough Gure For Coughs, Colds and Croup* A FACT ABOUT THE "BLUES" What is known as the "Blues' is seldom occasioned by actual exist** iing externa! conditions, but in the great majority of cases by a disordered LIVER ? THIS IS A FACT which may be demonstra- | ted by trying a course of They contro! and regulate the LIVER. They bring hope and bouyancy to the mind. They bring health ana elastic ity to the body. TAKE NO SUBSTITUTE. Tliroe Barbecues. There were three barbecues in the county last Saturday and the candidates had a high old time flattering the faix sex, kissiDg the babies and shaking the horny hands of the workingman, all three of which they performed with gallantry and grace that made them votes. The 'cue at Edmuuds was largely attended, there being between 300 and 400 persons present and there was plenty of music by brass and string bands and other amusements as well as a delightful time for all. There was hardly a greasy spot left to mark the disappearance of the smoking viands and the Keeder boys scooped in the boodle. That being an off day for the State campaigners, Senator Sharpe was present and addressed the people. He declared that he would not resign as Senator and gave as a reason that Efird and Griffith did not resign when they were candidates for other offices and that BelliDger, Gunter, Ciughman and others had not resigned their present offices ^hile candidates for another. The other speakers were Capt. J. H. Counts, E. U. Shealy, W. M. Wilson, for the House; Paul E. Hutto f )r Auditor; Henry J. Kawl and Jno. S Derrick, for County Supt. of Ecu catior; Geo. A. Shealy and Paul H. Craps for Supervisor I. Hallman for County Commissioner. There were several other candidates present but they did not face the music and contented themselves with coquetting with the silent votes. The crops in that seciion ere in very fine condition and the people are cheerful, happy and contented. The 'cue at Priceville was wl1! attended and the excellent dinner was enjoyed by those present. That old wheelhorse of simon pure democracy, Col. D. T. Barre, was the master of ceremonies, and the speakers were: Efird, Epting and Towill for the House; G. A. Derrick for Auditor; F. W. Shealy for Treasurer; Wallace E. Lorick and J. W. Frey for County Commissioner. Other candidates were present but did not speak. The crop3 in that section are only fair, but everyl o \y was hopefull, and ! all seemed to eDjoy the day. We have received no report from the cue at Ballentines. Will You Esmomber? ! TP V +K a motor r>f 1 nrinco JL ui IUU ui a\J *T I has created a tremendous excitement j among the people of Richland and adjourning counties by throwing his large stock of dry goods, clothing, shoes and hats on the market for a few days, and proposes to make it hot in the old town durind this sale. It should be remembered that this stock is no old shop worn goods for which thera is on demand, but consists of a fresh line in dry goods, dress fabrics, trimmings and the ! latest cuts and most stylish suits and | hats ever shown by one house in the j city of Columbia. He needs the room | for his fall and winter stock, which is expected to arrive shortly, and in order to get it at as little expense as possible, he determined to make I this great sacrifice sale. Those want! ing bargains in these good3 had bet| ter call early for at the prices they are offered they will not remain long ; on bis counters. Remember, Fur: fc-ick's great sale and when in Columbia call and see his stock. For Sale Cheap. j A complete equipment for a short | telephone line including two telej phones, wire insulators etc., for | sale cheap. Those wishing to pur| chase can get further information by i applying at this office. What the Champion Says. The champion farmer of the county | was in town recently and after tell| ing of the fine rain which had watered hi3 section, added that the crops are not so good in seme sections as they are in others. He was enraptured over the fine condition of the crops of Mr. Frank Rister which, he said, notwithstanding no rain has fallen on them since the seeds were put in the ground, are in a flourishing condition and if the seasons had been favorable there would have been no room on the earth, nor in the air above, neither in the waters beneath the earth to contain them. He has to tie down his pea crop to keep them from pulling the earth, ud and his onions have grown 7 ? w under the pailings of his garden and pushed up the posts. No less re. markable is Mr. Rister's live stock, the champion added, after a moment's reflection, as that gentleman had a fine Jersey cow that he carries in his arms to the pasture and it take9 the whole family to bring her back to be milked, and by taking a drink or two of water with a little salt added, 8nd giving herself a shake or or so the cow will furnish ice cream or milk shake just as desired. We vouch for nothing; we simply tell the tale as 'tvas told to us, but those km -mg the viracity of our informant , U not question its correctness for a moment. Officers Elected. The stockholders of the Electric Railway from this place to Columbia, held a meeting in the law office of Col. G. T. Graham in this, place last Monday afternoon, and organized by the election cf the following Board of Directors: A. J. Fox, J. E. Kaufmann, G. T. Graham, S. P. Roof, M. P. GuDter, M. W, Shull and H. M. Wingard; and at a subsequent meeting of the board the following officers were elected: President, A. J. Fox; Secretary and Treasurer, Julian E. Kaufmant; General C.mncelor, G. T. Graham. Now that the company has been organized and the prospects are bright for the building of this road our people should subscribe liberally to its capital stock. The people of Lexington are enthusiastic over the building of this road and we are informed that Columbians are noneless interested. It is the purpose of the projectors of this enterprise to cross Congaree river at some convenient point and enter the city of Columbia, and it is proposed to commence work on it at as eaily a date as practicable. A ?\A41\MW mnWTTA** TTT1 1 1 s*\ % 4 I ?T Vv ft n.uutuci ouivcj ?xii au.yjn.ij uc made when the route will be permanently located and staked off. There is no question about this enterprise being a paying investment from the very start as the material to make it such is already at hand and those having capital to invest would do well to put money in it.
