Write them for your wants. , Registration Board Busy. If-the board of registration is kept as busy as they have been the past few days, it will not be long before every man in the county will have a new certificate, and it will be of little use for them to visit the different precincts in the county during the month - * of September. Hauling Poaches. We have never seen tha like of wagons hanling fruit' to Coltimbia. , They come and go at all times during the day and night and it is surprising to see just how much fruit, produce, etc., is marketed in Columbia. i , m , Notice to Candidates.

Senatorial Cajnyaira. * The candidates for the United * 'States aenate will speak here on next Tuesday, the 28th. It is hoped that the voters will turn out in large numbers to hear the candidates, all of whom are speakers of wide repute and it goes without saying that their . speeches will be highly entertainging.

Miller carried Gus Douglas, the negro who was arrested last week for obtaining money nnder false pretences from Mr. H. Z.

Douglas took the days. Rais Needed. It is reported that crops in some sec tions of the county are badly in need of rain and that much damage has already been done. In other sections however, rain has been plentiful and crop conditions were never better. ; I*ot only is this the case in this ' county, but the same conditions preTail throughout the State. XilUd Two Hawks. Verner Bickley, the 13-years-old son of Mrs. Bebeca Bickley, of the Sellwood section is a fine shot for one so young in years. Oqe day last week this little fellow killed two hawks in less than fifteen minutes, both of which measured over three feet from tip to tip. , The hawks were brought down with a single-barreled breechloader. The little man is receiving the^coneratulations of a large circle of friends. Mothers don't give your baby anything that contains opiates or any other injurious drugs, but insist on having Dr. Thornton's "Easy-Teether", as it is the best medicine on the market for teething babies, and is absolutely harmless as it does not contain any opiates or injurious drugs of T vo om ovo ntoorl nn^Of AUJ &I1JK.S. iv is guai auin>vu uuuux Pare Food and Drugs Act, Guaranty INo. 11584.

Smith is hereby announced as a candidate for County Commissioner and will abide by the result of the Democratic primary. The Board of Health. The board of health has been acting wisely of late. They have had several of the old stagnated wells closed up and have been looking after the general sanitary conditions of the town. But there are more wells to be closed and other precautions to be taken and it is to be hoped that the board will continue the good work until every breeder of typhoid is forever stamped out. Let the good work continue, gwuuieiiieu. The Barbecue at A&dy's. The barbecue at O. B. Addy's on Saturday was largely attended and quite a number of the candidates were present. Among those who spoke were the candidates for the State Senate?Messrs. Sharpe, Graham and Crosson, and the following candidates for the House: Dr. E. C. Ridgell, Isaac Edwards, Joseph L. Amick and R. L. Shuler. It was a representative gathering of the citizens of that section and all ! of the speakers had a respectful hearing. _ _ I * ' Columbia's Amusements. It has been the editor's good fortune to attend the various places of amusement in Columbia during the past few weeks. To say that we have been delighted, yea, charmed, by the wonderful attractions offered by the different little theatres in the city is expressing it mildly. Each of these shows furnish performances of a high character and it is surprising to see how well they keep up, when one considers the small price of admission charged. Every day or two new plays are put on and a complete .change of program, which undoubtedly costs money. This goes to show that the managers are spring neither time nor money in securing attracsions which appeal to the theatregoers. Certainly, Columbia is blessed with clean and uptodate amusements. t.
