Townitlilp Enrollment. On being asked Monday, as to tht Y progress of the township enrollment oi Confederate veterans, Major James F Hart, chairman of the county enrollment committee, said he has had satisfactory reports from Bethel, Bullock's Creek, Bethesda and York townships The committeemen in these townships seem to be making an effort to do th< work assigned them. He is hopefu that the work is also going on in the other townships; but has no definite information. v / Gold Specimen*. Mr. R. O. Darwin, of Smyrna, was ir Yorkville Monday, with some very pretty specimens of gold ore taken from a mine on his place recently. He reports that the prospectors have been quite active in his neighborhood, along Broad river, of late, and he hopes to see some , extensive operations before a great while. That there is gold in that section there is no question.

Pettus, of South Point, yesterday about 9 a. m. He was cleaning out a well at N. B. Bess's. At second drawing the rope broke and Mr. Bess, at the windlass, shouted and Mr. Pettus heard him just in time to look up and receive the blow of the bucket of mud in his face. He cried out and W. E. Beattie went down and found Mr. Pettus in a terrible condition, sitting on the keg. Mr. Beattie climbed out and Mr. Pettus followed him, climbing with his hands and feet pressed against the wall on either side. When he reached the top he said he was exhausted and Messrs. Beattie and Bess grabbed hold of his arms and pulled him out. The well was 28 feet deep and the keg with which the sediment was being drawn out was a ten gallon keg about half full and about 25 feet from f the bottom of the well. The lower hoop was strap iron and struck Mr. Pettus on the forehead and cut away tne skuii down past the nasal passages and broke his jaw. Mr. Pettus did not talk much after the accident, only speaking about how he might be saved. He was conscious for several hours. Drs. Robinson. Dulin and Patrick were summoned. Mr. Pettus did not want to be touched and morphine was injected into him by force. The physicians could not successfully remove the blood and dress the wound. It was evident that no skill could hope to save his life. He suffered till about 3 o'clock, when he died. The deceased leaves no family. His wife died several years ago. He is about 35 years old and has been living with Mrs. Mary Pettus. White Illiteracy In the South.? That there is much to be done before white illiteracy in the southern states can be reduced to a more desirable percentage, says the Macon. Ga.. Tel egraph, may be seen from the follqwing statement of the per cent, of illiteracy of both races taken from the Federal census of 1900: White. Colored. Alabama 14.2 59.5 Arkansas 10.8 44.8 Flordla 8.0 39.4 r Georgia 12.1 56.3 Louisiana 20.3 61.2 Mississippi 8.3 53.2 North Carolina 19.0 53.1 South Carolina 12.6 54.7 Tennessee 14.5 47.6 Virginia 12.5 52.5 Mississippi recently made a liberal appropriation for popular education, although it already has the smallest per cent, of illiteracy among the whites and the Negro majority in the state is v in the neighborhood of 70,000. It might be thought that the small percentage of illiteracy among the whites in a "black state" such as Mississippi is due to the fact that In such a state the white employer class is relatively larger and the white laboring class relatively smaller than in other states. But the figures for South Carolina, another black state, show a larger percentage of white illiteracy than is found in Virginia, Georgia, Florida or Arkansas, all of which have considerable white majorities. Greater interest in education would therefore seem to be the main cause of Mississippi's enviably low percentage of white illiteracy, AT THB CHURCHES. THE CHURCH OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD. REV. J. C.

New t'ne For Refined Parnftine Wax A new and important use for Refiner Paraflne Wax seems to have been discovered by a prominent resident oi Ohio. livUg near Lancaster, who hac two trees badly damaged by stonn, on< being a maple and the other an apple In each case.a large limb was broker down from the trunk, but still attach ed to it. The limbs were propped uj and fastened securely with straps, verj much as a broken leg might be fas tened with splints, and then meltei refined /wax poured into and over al the cracks. The "surgical operation' was entirely successful. The Parafin* prevented the escape of the sap, kep out the rain and moisture which wouk have rotted the trees, prevented th< depredations of insects, and the limb! seem thus far to be perfectly re-at ?- tn fhp trees. . frn.

I * denial Notices. i f There is more Catarrh in this section ' of the country than all other diseases 1 put together, and until the last few . i years was supposed to be incurable. 1 For a great many years doctors pro- . nounced it a local disease, and pre> scribed local remedies, and by con- ] * stantly failing to cure with locaJ treatr ment, pronounced it incurable.
