Mathews, of Greenwood, preached in the Presbyterian Church last Friday evening, Saturday morning and evening and Sunday morning and oven ing to large and attentive audiences. His sermons were deep aud interesting, and were greatly enjoyed by the congregation. Mr. Mathews is a young man of consid? erable talent, and we predict for him a bright future. We have received tho first number of the Woodruff Progress, a new paper just started in the town of Woodruff by Messrs. Gregory & Harris, and edited by Mr. S. M. Pilgrim. The proprietors are experienced newspaper men, and if the citizens of Woodruff will only encourage their efforts and patronize them liberally they will give them a live paper. We wish them success. The like of it has never boen heard of before, and the South Carolina editor must think the millenium has come in Galena, Kansas, as the citizens of that town have petitioned the editor of a local paper in that place to allow them to give him a benefit at the opera house, assigning as a reason that he has never failed to give his columns to the assistance of home enter? tainments, civic orders, churches, schools, charities, or organizations of every de? scription. The lines of that editor are cast in a pleasant place, surely. The annual pic nie at Geer's Spring last Saturday was a complete success and a most pleasant occasion. In the forenoon the crowd was entertained by interesting speeches from Messrs. C. Wardlaw, M. Gassaway and J. E. Breazeale. The speakers were introduced by Col. L. E. Campbell, who also made some remarks. After the speaking, a most sumptuous basket dinner was served. Tho afternoon was devoted to social amusements, which were kept up till late in the afternoon, and all present seemed sorry that the day was not twenty-four hours longer. The spring is a most beautiful place to have a pio nie ? Owing to the inclement weather on Wednesday, the festival arranged by the ladies of the Baptist Working Society to be held on the lawn at Col. E. B. Murray's residence was postponed, and wc aro re? quested to announce that it will be held on Monday afternoon and evening. The children who are to join the procession are requested to meet at Mrs. McSmith's art rooms at 4 o'clock on Monday after? noon. Mrs. S. Bleckley, Miss J. F. Ed? wards and Mrs. McSmith will havo charge of the children who attend. At the grounds the Cornet Band will furnish music for the afternoon- and evening. Refreshments will be served and tho pat? ronage of the public is solicited. The Holiness Convention concluded its services last Sunday evening, and the delegates left for their homes on Monday. Four services were held each day?6* and 11 a. m. and 4 and 8J p. m. Each service was largely attended, especially at night, when the Church was inadequate to hold the crowd. During the meeting a num? ber of persons were converted and a num? ber claimed to have been sanctified. Much interest was manifested in the services, and much good will no doubt result from them. The sermons throughout were mainly devoted to expounding the doc? trine of holiness. If the weather is favor, able, night services will be held through? out this week, Rev. J. W. W?lling and Rev. T. C. Ligon conducting them. If the interest continues, it is probable that other ministers will come to their assist? ance. "We were pleased to meet at the pic nie at Slabtown on Saturday, the clever and gentlemanly local editor of tho Anderson Intelligencer, Mr. C C. Langston. Mr.'Langston is one of the best local ed? itors of the State, and nothing happens in his County that the many readers of the Intelligencer are not favored with by his pen. His attention to the fair sex on Saturday was marked, and in his remarks of the pic nie in the columns of his paper we may expect to see something of a 'pretty maiden from Easley,' or a 'dash? ing belle from Central.' Who is it, friend L ?"?Easley Messenger. You should have been more merciful, Bro. Condon, and not have given us away in such a man? ner ; besides, that's not a fair question. However, if you will promise not to tell, the next time we see you we will whisper it softly in your ear, and ask you to speak a good word for us. On Wednesday afternoon of last woek a terrible tragedy occurred on Mr. II. II. Acker's plantation, about four miles south of the city, which resulted in the death of a little negro child, about eighteen months old. From the facts elicited at the in? quest, which was held by Coroner Nanco on Thursday morning, it seems that the mother of the child had carried it to a neighbor's house, where she left it in company with three other children, be? tween the ages of five and eight years old, while she went to the field to work. Tho children were alone in the house. They got hold of a gun, which was in the house, and by some means it was discharged, the entire load of shot entering the child's face. The children were so small and so terribly frightened that the jury of in? quest could not get enough information from them to state which ono did the shooting, as each one said tho other did it. The annual pic nie of the Ilonea Path Division of Sons of Temperance, at Kr win's Mill, on Saluda River, camo off on Friday, the 14th inst., and as usual attract? ed a large crowd of ladies and gentlemen from the four neighboring counties. Ad? dresses were delivered during the morn? ing by Col. J. L. McCullough, Rev. A. C. Stepp, and Messrs. L. P. Smith and Columbus Wardlaw. In tho afternoon Mrs. Chapin spoke, and Mr. E. B. Mur? ray briefly responded to a call for a speech. Prof. J. B. Watkins, of Honea Path Division, presided over the meeting. The speeches wete ablo and interesting, and contributed much to the pleasure of the day. The site selected for the pic nie is ono of the most beautiful and romantic places in this part of tho State, and the sociability and hospitality of the neigh? borhood is unbounded. Mr. M. Erwin, the owner of the Mills, always gives his personal presence and efforts to contribute to the enjoyment of the visitors who at? tend these pic nics, and the whole neigh? borhood follow his example. On this oc? casion several hundred persons attended the picnic, and a most sumptuous pic riic dinner was provided. Everything was maunged in tho most pleasant manner possible, and any person who wan present and failed to enjoy that day is certainly devoid of all social nature Those who attended this year will want to go again. A AInpiIlicent Display. From early in the morning till late in the evening last Friday there was a con? tinual stream of visitors, tbo greator ma? jority of whom were ladies, to the dry goods store of Messrs. Bleckley, Brown & Fretwell. The occasion that attracted this crowd was the Grand Spring Opening which this enterprising firm had arranged for that day. The grocery dopartmont was closed, and all the salesmen, fashion? ably attired and woaring their happiest smiles, were centered in the dry goods department, each one eager to do his best in showing the many attractions display? ed. TTpon entering tho store the visitor's eye was fairly dazzled and bewildered with the scene presented. From one end of the commodious room to tho other nothing but an avalanche of boauliful goods could be seen, producing a scenic effect well worthy tho attention of every lover of the decorative art. Numerous bouquets and waiters of beautiful flowers had been sent in by lady friends, which lent additional beauty to the display of goods. Of course, it was impossible to display even a sample of the many beau? tiful goods, but enough was shown to give some idea as to what could bo found in the stock. Two days had boon con? sumed in tho arrangement.of the goods, and it had been dono to perfection. Tak? ing everything into consideration, we doubt if a metropolitan expert decorator could have made a more beautiful display. As we were conrteously shown through, we could'hear nothing but expressions of the highest praiso from the throng of vis? itors. Thousands of yards of laces, em? broideries, yoke nets, white lawns, nain? sooks, muhs, seersuckers, silks, satins, hosiery, gloves, towels, doileys, hats, (trimmed and untrimmed), shoes (gents' and ladies'), fans, feathers and flowers, etc., etc., met the eye on every side. None of the goods were offered for sale, but to each article was attached a piece of pasteboard, with the number and price in large figures on it. The prices wero re? markably low, many articles being mark? ed at actual cost, but the prices were only guaranteed for that day. Visitors desir? ing to purchase any of tho goods could do so by having their name marked on the article, which would be dolivered to them next day. In the rear of the room stood a fine piano, surrounded by a number of chairs and settees, and during the day somo excellent music was rendered. In the afternoon the Y. A. C. Band also dis? coursed charming music. Upon leaving the store, each visitor was presented with a decorated fan and soda wator tickets as souvenirs of the occasion. The Opening was a grand success, and Messrs. Bleckley, Brown & Fretwell may rest assured that their efforts in making this grand display will be appreciated by the trading public in a substantial way in the future. Helton Items. On last Saturday afternoon wo were visited by a hail storm. The display was quite sublime for a while, but no consider? able damage was done. Oats are developed sufficiently to war? rant a calculation of a crop of 75 per cent., though the acreage is unusually small in this section. Wheat is thought to be about 50 per cent., but the recent rains may inako an incieasc over this estimate. Our young people have formed a reading club. There is no town in the County, where there is a more social feeling per? vading the place, than Belton. Several of our young people attended the pic nie at Goer's Spring last Saturday. W. E. B.

Holland's Store Items. Chopping cotton is tho order of the day. Most of our farmers have pretty fair stands, though tho cut worms continue to cut it down. Rust has made its appearance on wheat. We hear that it has already damaged some localities to a considerable extent. Our people are finding out the impor? tance of raising their own supplies at homo. Nearly every farmer in this sec? tion is planting more corn than any pre? vious year in our recollection. Mr. A. F. Shearer has between "5 and 100 acres in corn, and only 30 acros in cotton. Mr. J. M. Cardin has a common scrub cow that will, with good attention, give six gallons of milk a day. She averages ovor lour gallons, with very ordinary treatment. The time is fast approaching when wo will greet the pleasant smiles and feel the vise like grip of the candidate. Come out, gentlemen, and make the printer feel happy. If you aro not elected you will have the consolation of knowing that you are not tho first one that over failed. We had a good rain on lost Saturday evening, preceded b3r a severe wind, blow? ing down fonces and doad trees. I have not heard tho extent of the damage. Burke. Pendleton Farmers' Socloty. Pendleton, S. a, May 13. Tho Pendleton Farmers' Society held its regular quarterly meeting to-day. After tho election of new members, the question of holding a Stock Show in the Fall was brought up and discussed at somo length, and finally, on motion of Mr. L. Newton, it was resolved that there shall be a Stock Show held in the Fall, but that the exact time shall be decided upon at tho meeting in July. On motion of Mr. D. K. Norris, Messrs. O. A. Bowon, jr., Julius R. Newton and H. S. Trescott were appointed to work up the Stock Show. The question of auction sales in con? junction with the show was debated, and tho matter left over for action at tho next meeting. A committee, consisting of the President, O. A. Bowon, sr., D. K. Norris and B. Harris, was appointed to take it under consideration and report at that timo. Mr. D. K. Norris was requested to favor the Society with some remarks on tho Farmers' Convention at Columbia, which he had attended as a County dolegate. Ho complied iu a brief but interesting way, and the matter was received as informa? tion, with thanks. It was unanimously resolved that tho ! Hon. B. F. Cray ton bo requested to ad dross the Society at tho next regular meeting iu July on the subject of "stocic raising," and tho Secretary was instructed to inform Mr. Crayton of tho desire of the Society. After some discussion as to ways of making the regular meetings more inter? esting, tho Society adjourned. Gko. E. Taylor, Secretary. It will pay every lady and gentleman to visit C. F.

These re? peated calamities have almost broken the old hero's heart. I am informed too that he saj*s he is physically breaking down, and that the wound on his head, received in battle, is troubling him so that he notices a failure of memory.

This morning as Senator Bobo was driving to the city, his horse became fright? ened, nnd his little grand child, who i:c companied him, fell out of the buggy. In attempting her rescue Mr. Bobo was th'own to the ground and was painfully and it is feared seriously injured. He is in an un? conscious state, and the attending physi? cians, while hopeful say his condition is critical in the extreme. As yet he has not baen moved to his home, but his family and many sympathizing friends are with him.?Spartanburg Correspondence Greenville News, May 15. Mr. Wm. Langford had a large poplar on his placo near town, which ho had cut down and partly sawed up the past week. There were six cuts got from the tree, each eight feet long. The first cut was 4J feet in diameter. The logs were got to the saw mill, only a short distance, after much trouble, and two sides had to be blocked off before they could be sawn. Then the saw was run through on one side, like one cuts a big watermelon with a pocket knife. The saw reached just to the centre. The log was turned over and sawed on tho other side the same way, and the two parts thus formed were managed without much trouble. Out of the first cut 75S feet of lumber was made. The other cuts were not so large ; but the whole tree will make about four thousand feet. Mr. Langford has sold the lumber at $20 per thousand. Another homicide has taken place in our county. Luther Barnett, a young man, about twenty-one years of ago, was killed Sunday morning by Oliver Hester, who had married Barnett's sister. The report is that Hester was whipping his little child, about a year and a half old, and Barnett remonstrated with him and said he ought not to whip a little child that way and that one word brought on another until Hester picked up a tongue plow lying near him in the yard and threw it at Barnett, striking him on the side of the head above and to the rear of the ear. The blow caused his death. A warrant has been issued for Hes? ter, but he has not been arrested. He is a young man not more than twenty-three years old. He, when a boy, was severely injured by a team running away with,a wagon up Church street several years ago and throwing him out. He was carried to Sheriff' Gentry's, where he remained sever? al weoks. They lived near New Prospect. Spartanburg Spartan. Baking I'owders. Dr. Edward G. Love, the Analytical Chemist for the Government, has made some interesting ex? periments as to the comparative value of baking powders. Dr. Love's tests were made to determine what brands are the most economical to use, and as their capacity lies in their leavening power, tests were directed solely to ascertain tho availa? ble gas of each powder. Dr. Love's report gives the following: Name of the Strength Baking Powders. Cubic inches Gas per each ounce of Powder.

Phosphate and Tartaric Acid powders liberate their gas too freely in process of baking, or under varying climatic changes sutler deterioration." Dr. Lt. A. Mott, the former Government Chemist, after a careful and elaborate examination of the various Baking Powders of commerce, reported to the Government in favor of tho Royal brand. Prof. McMurtrio, late chief chemist for the I*. S. Government at. Washington, says: "The chemical tests to which I have submitted the Royal Baking Powder, provo it perfectly healthful! and free from every deleterious substance." A Card.

Women aro everywhere using and re? commending Parker's Tonic because they have learned from experienco that it speedily overcomos despondency, indiges? tion or weakness in the back or kidneys, and other troubles peculiar to the sex. "I have long been a sufferer fr.om fe? male complaints. Have tried physicians and advertised remedies, but without any relief whatever.
