Master’s Sale. The only public sale made on Mon day was by the master in equity, who in the case of the Peoples Bank vs. Jos E. Holley and Mrs. A. C. Holley, sold a lot of land at corner of Colleton avenue and Sumter street, measuring 100x250 feet, to W. M Meyer for $1800 On this lot is a comparatively new two-story residence, and the sale was made by the master only as a legal pro cess to perfect title. The price paid by Mr. Meyer for the pro erty, we learn, was really ♦3500. Accidentally Wounded Himself, On Monday a negro lad named Miles, living on Mr. Arthur Weeks’ place bad ly wounded himself with a shotgun. He was brought up to Aiken and the wound dressed by Dr. 1. F Wyman. It seems that he and some other lads were out hunting and were crossing the South Edisto in a small boat, when he drew his gun towards him by the muz zle. The hammer struck the boat, the gun was discharged, and the load tore the flesh oil the under side of his left arm from the wrist to the elbow. Most of the Cotton Sold. On account of the rising price of cot ton many farmers who have been hold ing their crops are now selling, some having received as much HP* to 1U 3 .i cents per pound for all they have. While many were advised to sell in the spring when cotton was around the 7- cent price, those who held are now con gratulating themselves that they held until they got fifty per cent more than they could have sold at live months ago. Should cotton remain at the present price for any length of time all on hand in this section will be marketed, as 11 few will hold for a higher price than pre vails at present. Meeting of.Uie Msdicsl Society. The regular monthly meeting of the Aiken County Medical Society was held on Monday with a good attendance of members.

On •-'aturday the annual meeting of the Confederate veterans was held in the Courthouse to elect a county board of pension commissioners for the ensu ing year. The meeting was presided over by Capt. John W. Dunbar, and the follow ing were elected members of the board : G C. Edmonston and R. L Courtney of Aiken, G. L. Harrigal of Warren ville, and W. M. Foley of Merritt’s Bridge. The following resolution offered by Mr. G O. Sentnll was unanimously adopted: Whereas, we the Confederate pen sioners of Aiken county assembled, ! now old and in a feeble condition, and a great many of us without the neces saries of life, feel that the State of South Carolina should pay us a larger pension that we may have the actual necessaries of life the short time we may live. The other Southern States pay a much larger pension, and that South Carolina is fully able to pay as much. Therefore, resolved, that we respect fully ask our representatives to look after the matter and to see if we can’t be paid a larger pension in future. Coonty Commissioners Meeting. The regular monthly meeting of the county board of the commissioners was held on Monday, bu only routine bus iness was transacted. In accordance with the resolution adopted at the last meeting of the Ai ken County Law and Order League, a committee composed of Messrs. T H. Rennie. L. S. Trotti. F, II. Hitt, J. S Keel, G L Rish, J. L. Guinby, H. M Dibble and H. J. Ray appeared before the commissioners and requested that they would authorize the sheriff to ap point two additional deputies, whose special duty it shall be to enforce the law against the carri ing of concealed or unlawful weapons The supervisor tated that while he was thoroughly in “ympathy with the purpose of the com mittee, he was advised by the county’s legal adviser that there was no author ity for the appropriation of money for such deput ies. The sheriff also stated that he would gladly appoint sueh deputies as were desired if the League would guarantee their pay. As the committee had no authority to do this, nothing more was done, but it is probable that the matter will he carried before t lie legislature at its next meeting, and an effort made to have the pay of sueh deputies provided for. Rural Delivery Boxes to bs Paiate I. The postoffice department lias an nounced that all of the rural free de livery collection boxes throughout the United States would shortly be treated to a coat of paint at tire expense of the | government. These boxes are scattered over all sect ions of the count rv, and are i to he put into t he hands of the carriers on dilTereiit i outes and are to be painted I at a cost of 2o cents each. I W bile it is not stated whether or not : the boxes are in great need of paint at j this time, or whether the carriers are > in need of more funds, it is generally supposed that it is tiie intention of the | department to distribute the amount which will he necessary for this purpose i to the various carriers throughout the I United States who carry the daily mails j into the rural districts. These collection boxes are located on j approximately 6,000 routes. The gov- j ! eminent is going to furnish the mate- j rial for the work and the carriers will be put to no expense whatever in carrying out the contract of painting the boxes. LOVE’S LIFE IS ONLY HERE BEGUN. [For The Recorder.] We must not doubt, or fear or dread, that Love for life is only given, And that the calm and sainted dead will meet estranged in heaven,— O Love w ;re poor indeed. Based on so harsh a creed. True that this earth must pass away with all the starry worlds of light, With all tiie glory of the day, and calmer tenderness of night,— In that radiant home can shine A ! rmp tfru rrimvirtfu and divine. « Earth’s lower things—*her pride, her fame, her science, learning, wealth and power,— Slow growths that through long ages came ; or fruits of some convulsive hour. Whose very memory must decay— Heaven is too pure for such as they. They arc complete ; their work is done ; so let them sleep in endless rest. Love’s life is only here begun, nor is nor can be fully blest,— It has no room to spread its wings Amid this crowd of meaner things. But Love is no such soulless clod : liv ing. perfected it shall rise Transfigured in the light of God, and giving glory to the skies,— And that which makes this life so sweet Shall render Heaven’s joy complete. c. K. L Poisoned By a Stolen Egg. According to a letter which was re- ceived a the governor’s office from Mr. M Ward, of Wards, on the Au- ’olumbia line of the Southern, a Joseph gUi til-( shameful case of poisoning whereby a small negro son of Jim Ryan was al most instantly killed from eating an egg containing strychnine, has never been properly probed; and Mr. Ward intimates that if an investigation is made arrests will follow. The matter has been placed in the hands of the county solicitor, who is instructed to push an investigation at once. Mr. Ward says the egg in question was a hen egg placed in a nest of tur key eggs with the evident purpose of committing murder. He says it was innocently prepared by a good woman. A physician’s examination after the death of the negro discovered that the poison used was strychnine. He says the egg was placed in a nest near the, junction of three farms, one of whose \ owners was a man of doubtful reputa tion. He adds that when he closely questioned the man he suspected, the man admitted put ting* a hen egg in he nest, but denied in an excited manner that it was poisoned. The local magistrate appeared on the scene to conduct an inquest, but com plained of being ili and left a substi tute, who conducted a slovenly inquest which resulted in nobody being arrested and the matter being dropped.

Or rather giving food to an old bird for his young. You have seen little blind, naked, scrawny-necked, newly- hatched birds in a nest in the middle of May. And you have shaken the bush or tree and seen the little naked things stretch their long shinny necks and open their mouths wide | unnaturally wide—thinking that the mother, or sometimes perhaps the father, was about to drop a worm down their throats—a worm or. God knows, any thing else. Well, we were emphati cally the old bird at the Lanham Spring picnic on Thursday last. Our generous and beloved friends, Mrs. John M.. Mays and Mrs. D. T. Mathis (they have inherited the custom from their dear father and mother before them), took us with them to the dining table and seated us on a bread basket behind them, to feed us on biscuits and fried pickle, jelly-cake and lemon-pie. And no sooner were we seated and endeav oring to hide, when five hundred young birds came and stretched up their naked necks and opened their wide mouths at us. They were named dear little Sallie Simkinsand Raven Simkinsand Curran Hartley and Wigfall Cheatham and David L. Adams. And as often as the two generous ladies shook the bush, which was ever and anon, the live rav enous birds stretched up their necks and gaped upon us with their voracious mouths. We were very much ashamed of them, but still we had to drop the worms down their throats. Nor did the supply ever give out. The two gener ous ladies continued to shake the bush, and tiie naked birds continued to ex tend their shameless jaws. And in the long run the hungry bird named Curran Hartley—who has never yet opened her appealing mouth in vain—got the last piece of lemon pie (her third piece). And we got none. Well, alackaday, it is very often that the old bird gets none. We have been an old bird all our life— and open mouths have always been gap 3 ing before us. NIP IT IN THE BUD. First Appearance of Dandruff a Fore runner of Future Ilaldness. That such is the case has been con clusively proven by scientific research. Prof. Unna, the noted European skin specialist, declares that dandruff Is the burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp, caused by parasites destroying- the vitality in the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless, and, in time, falls out. This can be pre vented. Newbro’s Herpicide kills this dandruff germ, and restores the hair to its natural softness and abundancy. TTerpieidc is now used by thousands of people—all satisfied that it is the most wonderful hair preparation on the mar ket to-day. Sold by leading druggists.
