ire of Your Valued Pat
Child Seriously Injured.
| The seveD-year-old son of Mr. and
I Mrs. "Bub" Hite, who lives about [
three and one-half miles south of Lexington,
met with a serious and probably
fatal accident Friday afternoon at
about two o'clock.
The little boy, it seems, was carrying
fodder from the barn to the stable
with the horse following him nibbling
at the blades. A few hands of fodder
were dropped by the child and as he
turned to pick them up the horse suddenly
raised his heels striking the
child on the left side of the head
crushing three or four inches of his
skull into the brain.
Dr. G. Frank Roberts of this place
was immediately summoned and did
what surgical work could be done
under the circumstances and then sent
the child to Columbia where he was
piacea in jjLnowiton's .Hospital. Although
the injury is a serious one, it
is thought that the child has a fighting
chance for recovery.
A peculiar coincidence with the accident
is the fact that the horse which
kicked the child on Friday ran away
, with the father of the child in Columbia
several months ago and in this accident
the father's skull was also
crushed and for several weeks the
man lingered between life and death.
The same animal injured one of the
members of the family a few months
ago but not so seriously.
The last report from the child is
to the effect that he is getting along as
well as could be expected considering
the seriousness of his injuries.
Big Picnic Tomorrow.
One of the largest, if not the largest,
Sunday school picnic e\ ar held in Lex
mgton county will be held in front of
the residence of the Rev. J. A. Cromer
tomorrow.
The picnic is known as the "Zions
Pfcitorate Picnic,and embraces the
large congregations of five churches,
viz:- Zion, St. Peters, Bmanuels, Pilgrim
and Mt. Herman. This is the
third annual picnic of these five
churches, and if good weather prevails,
there is no doubt that an im=
mense crowd of people will gather for
this occasion as a delightful program
together with refreshments will be
\ served.
H T .r m
juubs ui xypjLiuiu. xever,
Typhq^d fever seems to be raging in
certain portions of the county. Practically
the whole family of Mr. Gacrge
Rawl who resides about eight miles
above Lexington are seriously ill at
this time. The illness of Mr. Rawl
is peculiarly unfortunate considering ?
the fact that he is just recovering
* from an accident suffered by him sev|
eral weeks ago while operating a saw
: mill in which his left hand was seriously
wounded and has hardly healed.
X In the family of Mr. and Mrs. Henry
? Oxner, living in the vicinity of St.
m Johns, two are down, a young man of
jf about 18 years of age and a daughter
g j of about 11, both are said to be very
2 ill. Miss Emmie James, a trained
? nurse of Columbia, was rushed to
g tneir Deasiae Saturday.
"> There are said to be many other
jf cases of typhoid fever in the county
1 and the U9e of typhoid vaccine is being
2 urged by the doctors as a preventive.
^ Reception in Batesburg.
One of the mo9t enjoyable of the
season's social functions in Batesburg
was the reception given by Miss Susie
Edwards at her lovely home on Kailroad
street Monday afternoon, July
21st, in honor of her guest, Miss Boyd
of Rock Hill.
Miss Boyd, the honor guest of the
afternuoon, being connected with
Winthrop college, found it most pleas- i
ant indeed to meet so many of the old
: students of the college, the majority
of the afternoon's guests having at
some time in the past been students
at Winthrop. Games of contest were
| indulged in after which the guests
I were served delicious cream and cake
I by Misses Pauline Tim menu an and
Susie Edwards. j

ronage. Polite and Pro
Temperance Picnic.
Under the auspices of the Woman's
Christian Temperence Union the annual
temperance picnic was held at
Chapin last Thursday at the Methodist
church. A large crowd from the
neighboring towns and county were
present, in addition to those of the
immediate vicinity.
The devotional exercises began at
10j:o0 o'clock. Rev. C. W. Burgess
read the 146th Psalm followed by
prayer by Rev, W. J. Roof. The exercises
opened with elaborate exercises
in every respect by the Loyal Temperance
legion. The young people of the
local Y. P. B., led by Mrs. Chas. P.
Robinson, sang a number of temperance
songs.
Berly Koon, of Irmo, Rev. P. D.
Risinger, of Lexington, and Dr. A.
Branson, of St. Matthews, made
speeches in the morning and the facts
presented by these speakers were very
clear and convincing and the people
were greatly enthused and helped.
At one o'clock the meeting adjourned
and a sumptuons dinner was served
in the church yard by the citizens of
Chapin to their friends and visitors.
In the afternoon Col. Asbill. of Lees
ville and J. E. Rushton, of Lexington,
made speeches.
In the evening the medal contests
were held. The contest program was
replete and the orators showed that
they had been carefully trained.
Albert Summer won the oratorical
medal and Miss Martha We9singer
the musical medal. The judges made
honorable mention of Miss Esther
Eargle and Cecil Frick. Mrs. Mary ;
Harris Armor, of Georgia, addressed
the audience on this subject.
Engagement Announced.
A most unique announcement was
given out of the approaching marriage
in the early fall of Miss Frieda M.
Rutland at her home in Batesburg
Tuesday afternoon at a reception apparently
given in honor of Mrs. J. B.
Medlock, of Greenville, who is visiting
her mother, Mrs. M. S. Rutland.
After the real nature of the occasion
dawned upon the guest9 there were
man} hearty and sincere congratulations
extended to Mis? Rutland, who is
one of Batesburg's most charming
young ladies. During the afternoon
more than one hundred and twentyfive
guests called.
B. and L. Ass'n for Batesburg
Batesburg, July 24.-Among the
many plans that the town of Batesburg
nave discussed ana nope io carry out
is the movement looking toward the
organization of a building and loan
association. Some few days ago there
was held here a public meeting of the
citizens who were interested in such a
movement. At this meeting a most
interesting and instructive address
was made by Senator Xicholson of
Edgefield, after which a committee of
three was appointed to look into the
matter of a commis?ion and charter
for such an association. This commitee
was made np of Thos. M. Seawell,
"W T J T D
iu>. JU? JLtUUlAUU dUU O , If. LiUUUiaii.
As a result of this meeting the committee
appointed has seenred a commission
from the secretary of state
and have called a meeting of those i
interested in the matter to be held on j
the 25th instant for the pmrpose of j
completing the organization. It is j 1
the intention ?f the promoters of the j
movement to organise with a minimum
capital of $20,000 and a maximum
capital of 150,00# or $100,000 as developments
. may warrent. Already a
good deal of stock has bec-n asked for j
and notice has been given that the !
books of subscription will be open on
the 25th instant.
