OBITUARY.
Mr. J. J. Cunningham.
Many people in Aiken will learn with
regret of the death of Mr John J. Cun
ningham who spent about six winters
in Aiken, and who for over a year was
clerk in the money order department
at the postoffice. Mr. Cunningham
suffered from some throat trouble and
spent several winters at the sanatorium
in Aiken. Last winter he went to Den
ver, Col., and news was received in the
city Wednesday morning of his death
in Denver last week.
Timely Bountiful Rains.
The rains of Monday and Tuesday
nights were veritable blessings to this
section.
The splendid condition of the cotton
crop up to two weeks ago was being
sadly marred by the continued drought,
holders of the Warehouse Company, to All crops were burning up and for sev-
be held at the office of Mr. J. W Ash
hurst, on Saturday, August 19th, at
! 1 :30 a. m., to oytanize for business and
hear the reports of committees.

President Southern Cotton Association
for Aiken County.
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 Veterans to Eleet & Pension Board.
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.

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.

Baconia—Feeding Young Birds.
Ed</( field Chronicle.
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.
