While Mr. Edgar Sligh was coming
into town Saturday night about 9 o'clock
he was hailed near the Fair Grounds by
some party on the roadside and ordered
to halt. He refused'to stop, and the
party then rushed out and caught the
reins of his bridle. Mr. Sligh. having
no weapon, tried the effect of bluff: be
told the party if he didn't let go his bri
dIe be would shoot him, at the same
time making a motion as if to draw a
pistol. This had the desired effect, and
the party fled. Mr. Sligh thinks the
party was a negro, but it was too dark
to distingish positively.

A Mixed Fishing Party.
The most enjayable fishing frolic of
the season was that which commenced
at Saluda, near Bouknight's. Wednes
day, took in Beaver Dam and closed at
Mendenhall's Mill on Thursday. The
amount of fish caught was not large,
but the enjoyment was great. The
party was variously composed of a mas
ter in equity. a sheriff, a trial justice, a
preacher, an editor, a merchant, a tan
ner, a stone cutter, a locksmith and a
butcher. The merchant constituted
himself cook and proved a good one,
and the supper of fresh eggs and other
dainties, with coffee brewed on the spot,
was a royal one, but the next morning's
breakfast, which was largely of fish,
was the crowning'meal. We enjoyed
it so much that we are ready for ano
thier.

Our Alligator.
Snifflns-or more properly, Col. Snif
fles, he having received this compli
mentary prefix at the Cowpens Centen
nial-soon after our return from Flori
da, called to see if we had brought back
anything new from the land of flowers.
He came in. by the back gate, preferring
that way to coming through the house
with the risk of meeting the ladies, and
the first thing he stumbled over was the
alligator's den. His iminpulsiveness
nearly cost him the loss of a leg, or per
haps his head, or an arm, for he was
about to precipitate headforemost. Our
prompt interference saved the Colonel
from so sad a fate. "Great Jehosophat!
what in thunder have you got there?"
said he, recoiling in alarm. "A live
alligator," was the reply, "well known
for its love of nigger babies, or white
ones when it can't do better." "Where
did you get it. and what are you going
to do with it?" "In Jacksonville, Flori
da," in answer to the first, and to the
second, that "it was the intention of
that boy of ours to work him in double
harness with the goat previously men
tioned." "Well," said Sniffles, "that
beats all, you newspaper men are al
ways up to something. Whoever heard
of an alligator and a goat working in
harness; some of the readers of the
HERALD may believe it, but not I."
tnder the promise to let him know
when all was ready for the experiment.

I wonder."

President A. C. Maybin, of the "Maybin
ton Short Line", Interviewed.
A report having been circulated that
Mr. Maybin contemplated selling out
to the Clyde Combination, a reporter
was sent to interview the Colonel, that
the truth might be laid before the pub
lic.
Rep.-Mr. Maybin, having heard cer
tain rumors in connection with your
road. I would ask if you intend leasing
it to the Clyde Combination?
Mr. M.-No, sir! I have nothing of
that kind in %icw. I disapprove of
combinations; besides the Legislature
would oppose it.
Rep.-It has been asserted that your
line was built by the Laurens Railway
Company, and that during the tempo
rary suspension of that road its rolling
stock was transferred to you by its offi
cers. If this be true the Clyde Combi
nation must own a controlling idLterest
in your road.
Mr. M.-For a long time my "Short
Line" was in debt, and under control of
the L. R. R.; but the splendid business
that it has done in the last five years
has enabled me to remove all indebted
ness, and it is now a separate and dis
tinct corporation-and in fact my own
property. (Rep.-Whew!) Besides
this, the business is increasing so rapid
ly that I shall be compelled to make
great additions to meet the increased
demands. What I propose is, to place
sleeping eLrs on all through trains, to
uniform conductors, lay the entire line
with new steel rails, and extend the
road to Scott's Creek, in order to con
nect with the Steamers now plying on
that stream, and to make a through 4
route to the seaboard by the way of
Bush River.
Rep.-I suppose you will not be con
tent until your line shall reach across
the broad Atlantic?
Mr. M.-Well, sir, to be candid, I
must acknowledge that a line of steam
ers from my terminus to Archangel, on
the Northern coast of Russia. is a plank
in my platform-so to speak-and in
the course of time I propose to establish
a line to the North Pole in order to get
ice cheap during the Summer.
Rep.-Well, I suppose the lease ques
tion is settled?
Mr. M.-Yes, sir. The only combi
nation that would suit me, would be to
lease the Clyde myself, run it in con
nection with my road, and have the
controlling power in my own hands.
About this time Mr. R. S. Maybin,
Conductor, called "all aboard!" and as
the President of the "Short Line" was
going on a trur of inspection be left the
astonished rporter and stepped on the
platform of his special car. As the
train was slowly moving off he looked
out of the window and smilingly said:
If th1ings turn out as I expect,
I'll startle ail creation,
I'll lease the Clyde, and then I'll have
The "Maybin Combination".
For further particulars concerning
the "Short Line" call on the President
at No. 2 Railroad Street, opposite the
Telegraph Office.
"I Don't Want that Stuff,"
Is what a lady of Boston said to her
husband when he brought home some
medicine to cure her of sick headache
and neuralgia which had made her
miserable for fourteen years. At the
first attack thereafter, it was adminis
tered to her with such good results,
that she continued its use until cured,
and made so enthusiastic in its praise,
that she induced twenty-two of the best
families in her circle to adopt it as their
regular family medicine. That "stuff"

A telegram from Greenville to the
Augusta Chronicle says that a new rail
road line is proposed from Colnmbia to
Greenville via Newvberry and .L:m;rens.
The telegram says that influential and
and wealthy parties are interested, and
have been maturing the p)lan for
months. It is said by its friends to have
a strong backing.
An old colored woman named Lydia
Russell, formerly a slave of Judge
O'Neall. died suddenly on Mr. W. 1).
Reagin's place Wednesday morning.
She had worked the day before as usual,
and Wednesday morning she started to
the field again, apparently well. A
short distance from her house she fell,
and died in two minutes.
Superintendent Anderson, of the
Spartanburg, Union & Columbia R. R.,
and Mr. Jas. 0. Meredith are engaged
in taking an inventory of the property
of the S. U. & C. R. R., and making an
examination of its condition. This
week they are examining the track, and
preparing a report of its condition mile
by mile. This road has been leased for
ninety-nine years by the Columbia and
Greenville Rail Road Company, at $50,
000 per year.
We enjoyed a drive out six miles on
the Caldwell road Thursday. Cotton
along the way is looking well, though
some of it is quite grassy. The few
corn fields along the road do not look
promising. In passing, we would say
that wie believe it to be a mistake to
plant corn in this section except in rich
bottom-upland corn is not as profitable
as cotton. Oats looks very po'w There
are a few patches of wl,eat along the
road; this crop looks very little, if any,
better than the onts. Mr. Crotwell has
a beautiful patch of wheat just beyond
his house.
We had the pleasure last Wednesday
evening of meeting and forming the ac
quaintance of T. F. Greneker, Esq.,
of the Newberry HERALD, who, with
his wife and a little son were returning
from the Press excursion to the Land
of Flowers. It was the first time we
had ever meL, 3ro. Greneker, but an ed
itorial affinity had bound us in the ties
of friendship and we met and parted,
not as strangers who extend the hand
for courtesy's sake, but rather as old fa
miliar acquaintances, as members of
the same family, brothers who were
ready to confide to each otber secrets
that the world may not know. During
our three and a half years of newspaper
life we have met comparatively few
members of the South Carolina press
and we are therefore exceedingly proud
that the opportunity was afiorded us of
meeting the veteran editor of the New -
berry HERALD. We hope to meet him
again, in restored health, and when the
Conductor's cry of our local station will
not necessitate so early and unceremo
nilous a pairting.-Johnston Monitor.
