ErvIn, of Chi cago, 111.; Robert Av Ervin, of At lanta, Ga., and. Samuel E. Ervin, of Westminster, 8. C.; also by one brother, Prof. Richard B.

His brother and sis ters arrived on a visit the first of last week, found him quite ill, and were with him in his last hours, death and burial. William C. ErvIn ar rived Sunday morning and Robert A. ErvIn and wife, of Atlanta, arrived Saturday. In 1862 Gen. ErvIn united with th ? Williamsburg Presbyterian church at Klngstree, In which church he became a Ruling Elder prior to his removal to Walhalla. He was one of the original members ot the Wal- t halla* Presbyterian church, in which he had been an elder since its organi zation, about 1&70. v t**u - . . i . His long life was one of great ac tivity and usefulness He was a sur veyor by profession, and for a period of sixty years at least he was actively encaged in this pursuit. His terms as Surveyor General of the State wno marked by fidelity to duty and effi cient service. Since bis removal to Walhalla, nearly forty years ago, he surveyed lands In nearly every nook and corner of Oconee county, and his name will go down in our official rec ords as one of the most active sur veyors In the history of thl3 section. In all the relations of life his con duct and bearing were those of a gentleman of refined and delicate feeling. He was a devoted husband, Indulgent father and faithful friend. In his death our county loses one of its time-honored citizens. Life's work well done, his eqd was peace. He was confined to his room and bed only four weoks In his last sickness. The same fortitude which had been his portion in former y int* sustained him to the last. His funorai services were con ducted in the Walhalla Presbyterian church Sunday morning at J1 o'clock by Rev. L. W. Brown, after which his body was laid to rest In the family plat of Westview Cemetery, In the presence of a largo gathering of sym pathizing friends. "Regular as the Sun" is an expression as old as the race. No doubt the rising and setting of the sun ls the most regular performance In the universe, unless lt is the action of the liver and bowels when regu lated with Dr. King's New Lifo Pills.

Very truly yours, "A J. Bowers." !

Castleton Va., August 10.-Five ml ld ron were born on the same night ind in the same room of a mountain ;abln on the estate of Judge Henry 3. Stuart, of Russell county, Va. This ls tho record birth ovent of :hls part of tho country, and puts to route all cries of race suicide. The wholesale baby harvest took place In the one-room hut of a mountaineer, who lived there with his wife, his daughter and her husband. The mountaineer's wife gave birth to trplets and his daughter to twins in the same hour. When asked about the occurrence, the mountaineer said: "We have five. I don't know bow many got awev " Four of the babies are alive and healthy. Thero aro now eight people living In the one-room cabin. Odd Fellowship at Newry. Quite a number of visiting brot lu en were present at the special meeting of Newry Lot*ge. No. 76, I. O. O. P., held last Saturday night. The Initia tory degree was conferred upou three candidates-on two by Newry Lodge and on one by Oconee Lodgv of Wal halla. Several members of Seneca Lodge were also present. The work as con ferred by the Newry Lodge was a rev elation to the visitors, and the beauty of it was that all "horse play" was left out. and the work as laid down in the ritual strictly adhered to, thus making the meeting one of solemnity and full of thought. The visitors were entertalned roy ally and with an open heart and hand by the Newry members, being served with a bounteous supper at the hotel, and elegant refreshments at the lodge room. We believe these Joint meetings will bring the Odd Fellows of the dif ferent lodges in the county closer to gether and otherwise promote great good. The Odd Fellows of Walhalla espe cially enjoyed tho meeting, and hope to have the Newry team with them at an early date. Visiting the Schools. If the grand jury has not been around to seo how the teachers and the schools are getting u'ong, it will not be very long until some member of that honor able body will call on you. So look out for them and show them your best be havior, lest the schools might be re ported in bad condition. It was reported to the last Oourt that out of the 6,000 children enrolled in Oconee county that only about 1,600, or one-fourth of them, aro in school. From my own observation, and from oti?Gr information, I do not believe that such a statement can be substan tiated. For instance: I have Visited one schcol (in which there was local trouble) and found, even under suoh adverse conditions, the percentage to be 80 per cent of the enrollment. Ano ther school showed a little more than 75 per cent of the enrollment. The average of all the schools for the month just closed shows the ratio of attend ance to the enrollment to be more than 75 per cent. I hope that even that pro portion can be improved. I expect to go to each and every school and see the actual condition of things for my self. Respectfully, O. L. Craig, Oounty Superintendent ot Education. Applications Wanted for Markers. The D. A. R. request the descend ants OL revolutionary soldiers to sond in at once an application for a marker for the soldiers' graves. Over forty soldiers of Oconee and Pickens counties drew pensions in 1840. The government will mark these graves if the r L seen da nts will apply to the D. A. R.
