Our advice to thc young people of our town

not to hjdo. t(iomsc,lves,off pp the back or front

u Rev. S. L. Morris preached two excellent ser
mons lo li is flock on Inst Sabbath mmh'nn'g and
nt night. His reasoning was good and arguments
Convincing. They were Gospel messages; and
What the world needs just now ia more pf, this
kind of preaching and less about theological
dogmas tn the pulpit.
, We had the pleasure of seeing the eclipse
of tho moon on last Sabbath morning. The
calipee bogan about .three o'clock and ended
about half-past 5. It^w.as not total, thc moon
being only armut threc-foufths eclipsed. The
?eight was very pretty, ino s"ky being free
from clouds.
The ladies' on the Walhalla bound train
Saturday night had our warmest sympathies.
We hope Miss Lonft McG. and Miss Emma
McG. will visit our town again, when they
?will not bo compelled rp spend tho night in a
car not adapted to sleeping purposes.
Thc happiest man that w? h'av?.scen for" a
Jpng tim?is Mr. L. Brandt, our thrifty Guer
nien follow citizen, who came nil tho way up
to our offico to inform us of the new arrival
at his house ono day last week. The arrival
was a son and weighed-wo don't know how
many pounds. He will bo u student for
Adger College some day.
. The. young people of the Presbyterian
Church have taken our advice of last week
nnd have organized a choir for the church
Wo huio been told that tho singing on Inst
Sabbath was quito an improvement on tho
phi. Under the skillful management of the
organ by Miss Julia Johnson and practico
with tho singers wo don't see why they should
not make good music. Let your choir bc
composed of those who can and will sing.
. Our boarding house wa? treated tr? n batch

thoso affected with dyspepsia. Strange to

, An acoidont occurred to the lumber or con
struction train on tho Blue Ridge Railroad
on last .Saturday afternoon, about two or
three miles thia sido of Seneca River, which
detained tho paspong?r'.train for Walhalla all
ijight at Pendleton, tho train not roaching
boro until Sunday morning. Tho acoidont
>?rns caused ,by,tlie. breaking of nn nxlo of ono
jji the platfurm'nars, which upset tho cab car.

ttirowing it down tho ombankinont upside

Mr.. John C. Cary, who is known, to many .of

During the session of the Sonate, on Satur*
day, Mrs. Carponter, tho wife of L. Cass Car
penter appeared upon the floor of the Sonnte,
und had circulated among the morabcrs a
fiotition, addressed to the Governor, praying
br the pardon of her husband, who is now
confined in jail at this place. The petition
sots forth that the prisoner bas already suf
fered sufficient punishment; that he is in very
bad health, and that his family, consisting of
his wife and three helpless children, nre
uttorly dependent on him for support. The
unfurtyrjrittJjedy and devoted wife-herself
on invalid-excited general sympathy by her
evident distress and quiet ladylike maooer in
thc discharge of her painful, affectionate duty,
and. to their everlasting credit bc it said, not
ono of tho honorable gentlemen oompesing
the Senate of South Oarolioa turned a deaf
ear to her mute appeal for relief. She placed
tho paper on which her happiness and that of
of her husband and ohildren depends, in the
hands of Sonator Gary, who soon returned to
her the petition bearing tho signatures of
ovory Sonator in the hall. It has boon sub
mitted to the Governor, and it way safely
bo asserted that it is both boped ?nd expocted
that he, too, will hoarkon to ber pleading?,
and that tho unfortunate utan will be par
doned and allowed to go free,,

A GENTLE-, HINT.-?n our style of climate,
with its sodden changes of temperature-rnin^
wind and sunshine often intermingled in a
single day-it is no wonder|that our ohildren,
friends and relatives aro so frequently taken
from us by neglected colds, half the deaths
resulting directly from this cause. A bottle
of Bosohce's Gorman Syrup kept about your
home for immediate use will prevent serious
sickness, a largo doctor's bill, and perhaps
death, by tho use of three or four doses. For
oaring Consumption, Hemorrhages, Pneumo
nia, Severo Coughs, Croup or any diaoaso of
the Throat or Lungo, its success is simply
wonderful, aa your druggist will tell you.
