The average *aq didato is in need of two separate an ddistinct sets of views Mr. James Ruddock, and wife, of Anderson, paid friends in Pickens a flying visit last week. Last week and this is harvest time. Tihere are very few to boast of long heads with three or four grains to the snesh. Mrs. W. W. White, of Andewon, is now a guest at the Hotel do Thorn. l ey. She has a warm welcome from her many Pickens friends. Mrs. W. M. McCaslan and her daughter, Miss Nannie, are welcome visitors to Pickens. They are stop ping at Mrs John L. Thornley's. Col. Hollingsworth agrees with Noah Webster in this famous opi. ion: 'Ilt is no small job to tear down an old house and remove the rubbish." J. T. Jentry has in his poultry yard a three legged duck. It has been suggested that the third leg will be t utilized as a rudder when the bird f sails. Mr. McFall deserves the thanks of t his customers and their further pat ronage for the great improvement to the side walk in front of his furni ture store. Jack Holcombe has his farm east of Easley in fine shape and from the present appearance of things ho has invested a large amount of -nusclo in those broad acres which will pay a good dividend. Hon. H. M. Prince, of Williamston, z was in- Pickens again last Saturday. c This time be was accompanied by 1 Rev. John Griffin, of the Siloamb sec- C tion of Bruthy Creek township in i Anderson coi nty It will because for sincere regret among the friends of Dr. J. B.

Kelley and Leverett N. t Taylor enjored a mntual celebration e of their anniversaries at the home of t the former on the 10th inst. These gentlemen hold that day in high es t teem, and they take year about in be ing host on the festive occasion. Rev. T. J. Rook, the pastor of the Baptist church, is comfortably quar . tered with his family in the Ambler house at the corner of Main and Catharine streets. Not only the Bap tists, but all our citizons extend to him and his family a cordial welcome. Joshua W. Adcox, the mail carrier, desires to call atention .to the condi tion of the public roads in Pumpkin town ...ownship. From what ho says they are not ready for the sumnmer travel as they ar-e badly in rr~ed of work. But we notice that the town *ship wants some new roads. a e hame two miles east of Easlcy last Sambbath at the advanced age of eigh-I ty-two years. She had been for the 1~ greater part of her life a devotedl member of the Pr-esbyterian church, and her example wielded a wide influ ence for good. Her remains wer-e in terred last Mon'day, the funeral being conducted by Dr. Riley. Louis, the precious little child that gladdened and brighte-ned the happy home of W. M. H-agood for a year-, sudlenly passed away Iast Sa'bbath afternoon. The dear darlings look up in our faces, and we rejoice in the blessed light of their smiles, but the death that saddens and darkens the earthly home, is a sanctified sorrow, when it brightens our hope for- the 4 life beyond.. Children's Day exercise in the Pres byterinn church last Sabbaith after noon wvas lar-gely attended and a comn p)lete s uccess. The address by Rev. T .1. Rook was ai moist earnest and eloquent ap~peal andl was munch appre ciated by the audience. There wvas no apology about not being preparedl, but on the other hand he was glad for the opportunity to p~resent the cause, and the congregation was as ready to hear. Willie Ferguson, who is well re mem/ tered as the only son of J. Ruley Fergtson, a former sheriff of this county, was in Pickens last Thursday. He is travelling for a- Spartan burg cider house. Hie resides with his family about two miles west of Wil liamston. His grandmother, wvho is now about eighty-three years of age, lives with him. He thinks Pickens has made great im~provement in the last ten years. The two-year old child of Dosier Stegall who lives east of Easley climb ed upon the pen of a vicious old sow last Thursday and in a moment was 4 jerked through the crack into the trough like a stalk of lamb's quarter. Its screams soon brought the aifright ed and horrified mother to the rescue, and only the power of desperation could have overcome the blood-thirsty - brnte. The feet and legs of the child were horribly lacerated and one of its great (big) toes bitten away. Dr. C. N Wyatt dressed its wounds. 'The citizens who met the gray horse hitched to a top buggy last week without a driver are notitied that they wvere the victims of an optical il lusion. There was actually a full grown man in the buggy, but his skin, hair, eyes, and dress wvero pre cisely the color of the cushions and tihe curtains, and it wVas impossible to distinguish thle line where the buggy quit and the man bega.. Those facts are stated in the interest of truth and to prevent the cur'rency of' any rumor ,to the effect that a horse and buggy - .is running for office without being announced in the Journal.
