OCTOBER 5. 1905 The exhibitof the prosperity in South Carolina made in The State of last Sun day is one that might cause anyone be impressed with the wonderful prog ress South Caroliua has made during the (last forty years—and she is only i type of all the Southern States. Forty years ago she w.is prostrate without one industrial enterprise, or bank left She strictly started then build from the bottom, and it is mar velous what her own people have done In addition to the numerous, various manufacturing industries extending from the mountains to the seaboard our people have built up their cotton factories, until this State is the leading cotton manufacturing state in the South, and second only to Massachu setts in the union. Thuy have built up their banking interests, until ever' town of any kind of pretensions ha has one or more banks, and the depos its in these banks have increased fron nothing to $28,173,940.00. And all cl this is the work of our own people. W< may reasonably ask where can be found any people who have done or can d more? It is unfortunate that the attendance on the meeting of the Law and Order L 'rg.ie yesterday was small, for the proceedings were very interesting. The subject discussed was the need of a county court for Aiken county. It was shown by Mr. T. R Morgan, and by Mr. P. F. Henderson and Mr. II. M. Dibble what a relief such a court might be to our people, by the more prompt settle ment of cases, and the saving of money to the county. There are some alleged defects in the act authorizing such courts, which can be remedied, and it was decided that a committee from the League should be appointed to confer with our members of the Legislature to have the alleged defects remedied and (hat Messrs. Morgan and Hender son be requested to bring the subject before the Aiken Bar Association. Mr. Dibble mentioned that a sum of money had been subscribed to pay for a special sheriff's constable to parties —K,rlv quH nrrest violators of the law against carrying concealed wea- pons. Mention was made of the liquor drinking and disorderly conduct said to exist so often around Montmorenci on Saturday nights. The discussions were interesting, and indicated a strong sentiment on the part of some in the community for the enforcement of all laws. In fact it is only by a creation of a strong law- abiding sentiment that the present lawlessness in Aiken county can be suppressed. Pcrtnit of Qononl Robert K. Lee. The fact that too frequently it trans- oires in American history that no accu rate or authentic portrait of her great men is faithfully preserved has caused a number of the devoted admirers of Gen. Robert E. Lee to interest 'hem- selves to cause a perfect picture of the great General to be made and to be preserved for all future history. This work, after a lapse of forty { ’ears, is now under way by the John A. ^owell Bank Note Company, of Boston, who are using for this purpose the exact photograph made at General Lee’s res idence in Richmond a few days after the surrender, which picture hasaiways been considered by the Lee family and friends as the most perfect likeness ever taken of the General at that pe- riod. The work, when finished, will be of the highest art of steel engraving, so that it will thus be preserved for all fu ture time._ i City Lswbrtftktra Htreiftcr on Gouty Chain Gang. It is not probable that the city law breakers will relish the change that he city authorities have made as to their disposition. Hereafter instead of work ing the streets they will be turned over to the county authorities, put on the county chain gang, and made to work the roads at various points between El- lenton, and Ridge Spring, and North Augusta and Salley. The reason as signed for this change is that it has been found unsatisfactory to work both convicts and hired laborers together on the streets. And it has been agreed that in return for the use of the cit\ convicts the county gang will aid on the streets whenever such help is needed. In IM Oirfc Camef ti UaMIr CtNaty. [The following from an old Scrap Book ia published by request:] The other morning just after dinner, about the time people were going to bed, a small Boy about 40 years old, i only (daughter of an old (woman with 'hree orphan children, who lives exact ly opposite the postoffiee, on the same j side of the way (they don’t live where the do now), were alarmed by hearing a dumb man crying murder. And on looking out they saw a blind man peep ing into a window, where a no-armed man was beating his wife. When a no-legged man rushed in and kicked dog through the side of house, slightly kill- ; ing two dead pigs that the old hen had hatched a day or two afterwards. The : old man started off after the doctor 1 who had gone to Fielding’s Gallery to have the back side of his face taken. . Vnd when he came back home he j found that his potatoes had broken in- I to his hog patch ; and he took a hog and ’ broke it over rails back in the patch | and they run through the rails as if the fence was behind them. He then j went over to his Brother Hannah and : asked him if he had any good sweet j sharp cider, he asked him yes,he’s been had some mighty excellent soup beer, he is mighty sorry its been all gone. So last night yesterday morning, at about 10 o’clock in the afternoon be fore breakfast, a hungry boy about thirteen years of age, bought a big cus- tardjpie.for a levy and threw it through a brick wall ninety feet thick and jump ing over it broke his right ankle off a- bove the left knee, and fell into a dry mill pond and was drowned. The next day, about forty years afterward, be fore this happened, the same day in the morning, just after supper, an old cat had nine turkey goblers, the wind blew Yankee doodle on a frying pan and killed a sow and two dead pigs at Boston ; where a deaf and dumb man was talking to his aunt Peter up stairs on the sofa, down in the cellar, who told him to go to the apple orchard and climb a peach tree to get some pears to make her a plum pudding. And when he climbed up the tree he fell with both legs on each side of the fence and almost like to stove his out sides in. Dark Corner. TO-MORROW starts anotlfier of wonderful Opportunities.

The first half of the book, as its title indicates de ails the ordinary expe riences of a Confederate private sol dier, during three years of service. It does not touch upon political questions, nor describe army nianoeuves or cam paigns, but details only the personal experience of the writer, and what he saw. The writer has felt that life in the Confederate army as experienced by the plain private has been too much neglected, overshadowed, as it were, by the books of general officers, in which the war and army life have been seen from the view point of the superior and not from that of the private upon whom fell the burden of the hardships, and brunt of the fighting. The view point is entirely from that of a private soldier. The latter half of the volume consists of copies of letters written by the au thoress, when a young girl, during the fall of 1864, and early part of 1865, and shows vividly what the women of the South experienced. Her experiences during the bombardment of Charles ton recall the later seige of Ladysmith. These letters are not published with any desire to rekindle ill feelings, but only as the truth-rf history. The character sketches, while for obvious reasons fictitious names are used, are also true in every detail Orders for the book should be sent to The Neale Publishing Company, at Ful ler Building, New York, or 431 Elev enth street, Washington, D.
