Mary Louise, the sweet little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Brownlee, of this city, died Tuesday morning, after an ill? ness of two weeks from pneumonia, aged about three years.

The poles to be used in extending the telegraph line from the Savannah Valley depot to the Square have arrived, and will shortly be placed in position.

We understand that parties also went from Williams ton and Honea Path. We regret that the inclement weather prevented us from being present at the festival given in the new school building at Williamston last Friday night. We learn that the entertainment was a grand success, the net proceeds amounting to $125.00. The school building has just been completed, and is an ornament to the village. Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Andrew have the sympathy of many friends in the death of their sweet little daughter, Elinor, which occurred in this city last Friday night, of congestion of the lungs. Her. remains were interred in Silver Brook Cemetery on Saturday, after appropriate funeral services conducted by Rev. W. S> Wightman. The Abbeville Medium, of last week, has this to say abont one of Anderson's young ladies;: "Miss Nettie Miller, after a pleasant two weeks stay with her cousin, Miss . Corrie McClung, returned last Thursday to her home in Anderson. This is Miss Nettie's second visit to Abbeville, but'we hope will not be her last,' as every? body is charmed with her. One of our young men was so disappointed at not getting to tell her good-bye, that he has chawed all of his moustache out since then." The police have had reason to believe that there was a good deal of gambling going on among some of the negroes of the city, and on. Saturday night they raided Julius Green's house, on "Nickel Row," where they found four negro men. No evidence of gambling was found, however. When the police entered the house, Bob Jackson, one of the negroes, attempted to draw a gun on them, but Policeman Fant pulled his pistol and Jackson dropped the gun at once. He was arrested and locked up. '? List of letters remaining in the Post office for the week ending October 26th: Julia Anderson, J. P. Anderson, Mrs. Jane A. Carson, V. Commariers, A. F.

President Cleveland has issued the an? nual proclamation appointing Thursday, November 24th, a Thanksgiving Day. Let us all observe it in a good and true spirit, for our country has much to be thankful for. We hope our business men gene? rally will suspend business for that day, and at the same time we would suggest that the pastors of the city churches have a conference and arrange for a union ser? vice, to be held in one of our churches, where all of our people may go and de? vote an hour in thanksgiving and prayer to the Giver of all good. The following recipe for keeping lamp chimneys from cracking is taken from the Diamond, a Leipsio journal devoted to the glass interests: Place your chimneys, tumblers or vessels jwhich you desire to keep from cracking, in a pot filled with cold water and a little cooking salt, allow the mixture to boil well over a fire, and then cool slowly. Glass treated in this way is said not to crack, even if exposed to very sudden changes of temperature. Chimneys are said to become very dura? ble by this process, which may also be ex? tended to crockery, stoneware, porcelain, etc. The process is simply one of anneal? ing, and the slower the process, especial? ly the cooling portion of it, the more ef? fective will be the work. The Cadets of the '.Patrick Military In? stitute have been formed into two Com? panies, and the following officers are the officers of the respective Companies: Company A?Captain J. H. Coker, of Society Hill; 1st Lieutenant and adjutant of the battalion, S. B. Hair, of Barnwell County; 2d Lieutenant, W. H. Geer, of Anderson County; 1st Sergeant, M. A. Dean, of Anderson County; 2d Sergeant, J. 0. Mattison, of Donalds; 3rd Sergeant and color-bearer, T. W. Gary, of New berry ;. Company B?Captain, J. D. Low ran ce, of Columbia; 1st Lieutenant, M. O. Ligon, of Anderson; 2d Lieutenant, Edward Cox, of Belton; 1st Sergeant, Percy Sharpe, of Anderson; 2d Sergeant, J. W- Earle, of Anderson County; 3rd Sergeant and quarter master, W. C. Bai? en tine, of Honea Path. For some time past it has been very ap? parent that some one was dealing out whiskey on the sly in the city, and it has occasioned considerable comment among all law-abiding citizens, who were dis? posed to censure the municipal authorities I for not enforcing the law against those who were engaged in the traffic. In the I meantime, however, the authorities were ! quietly ferreting out the matter, and last J week twenty-one cases were docketed in the Mayor's Court against various parties, white and black, charged with selling whiskey. On Tuesday morning the trials began. Mason Keaton, colored, who is in the employ of Mr. John O'DonneU, and against whom there were two in? dictments, was the first one to be tried, which resulted in a conviction in both cases, the evidence against him being very plain and pointed. He was fined $100 in I each case. Prince & Vandiver represented the accused, and Brown & Tribble the prosecutors. The counsel for the accused j attempted to have the case tried by a jury j instead of by the Mayor, arguing that the city's charter allowed that privilege. Mayor Tolly overruled the point, and on this ground an appeal in both cases was taken. On Wednesday morning the cases against Reuben Young and Peter Wil Hams, both colored, were taken up, and j are being heard as we go to press. The trials will consume several days. Mr, D. L. Stephenson, of Fork , Town? ship, died suddenly last Monday after? noon, and by his death Anderson County has lost another good citizen. On Mon? day afternoon, abont 3 o'clock, in compa? ny with his brother, Mr. Stephenson left home in his buggy to go to Anderson- j ville. When he had gone about two miles, and while driving along the road, he began to sneeze violently, and com? plained of being quite Biek. asked his brother to assist him out of the buggy, and at the same time said he belioved he was going to die. His brother saw at once that he was seriously ill, and con? cluded to turn tho buggy around and drive back a short distance to the home of Mr. Harrison Price. .Mr. Stephenson be? gan to cough, and in a few seconds be? came speechless, He was carried into Mr. Price's house, and in an hour or two passed away. Mr. Stephenson had been for two years partially paralyzed, and several days ago he remarked to his wife that he believed his end was near at hand. On the day of his death, however, he seemed more cheerful than usual, and ate a hearty dinner. Mr. Stephenson was I about 47 years of age, and was a success? ful farmer. He was an upright man, and was highly esteemed by a large circle of frionds and acquaintances. He was a member of tho Baptist Church. His re? mains were interred at Cross Koads Church on Tuesday, the funeral services being conducted by Rev. J. R. Earle. He leaves a wife and one child. New Chnrcu at Belton. Mb. Editor : More than once within the last three years have unsuccessful efforts been made to build a new Church by the Baptists of Belton. This is not due to the fact that the members of said Church are financially unable, for consid? erable wealth is represented in said Church, but for want of proper energy. A new Church now becomes a moral and social necessity, and for this purpose a meeting of every member, and all inter? ested, is called on Sunday, November 6th, at 11 o'clock a. m. It is very important that the whole membership shall be rep? resented in that meeting, as matters of very great importance in connection with the Church are to be discussed. Come prepared to subscribe liberally. Remember, to give is as much an act of worship as the attendance upon any of the ordinances of the Church. A Member. Cherokee Items. The possum hunter^ we presume, has got his heels frost bit, as his horn is no longer heard in the land. Our young friend, Joe. Fant, who, for several weeks, has been quite sick with fever, is improving. It is hoped (espe? cially by the fair sex) that be will soon be well. Capt. Geo. M. McDavid, who has been traveling in Alabama for several weeks, has returned home. His friends are glad to see him looking halo and hearty. The constant wet weather has thrown the farmers back in sowing their small grain. . It was our privilege to spend the day some Sundays ago with our bachelor friends, D. S. and E. P. Vandiver. We did ample justice to that excellent dinner prepared by friend David. He is worthy of and really needs a good wife. Some fair girl would do well to capture him. Cherokee. Neal's Creek Items. Straw hats and seersuckers nave made their exit. Partridges are plentiful, and the hunter now has his freedom. A young man from anothor State spends about every other week in this section. Cupid evidently has him in his net. The hunting season is upon us, and we hope all those who have had their lands advertised against trespassers will bear in mind the golden rule and act accordingly. Miss Tallie Keown has taken charge of the Neal's Creek School. She has had considerable experience as a teacher, and is well qualified. She will no doubt make an acceptable teacher. Rev. G-. M. Rogers preached a very in? teresting sermon at Broadway school house last fourth Sunday afternoon. He will also preach there next fourth Sunday afternoon, at half-past 3 o'clock. Rev. B. M. Pack, of Hartwell, Ga., has been unanimously elected pastor of Neal's Creek Church for the coming year, the present pastor, Rev. D. W. Hiott having resigned. The Church and entire commu? nity regret to give up Mr. Hiott, who has served us so faithfully for the past three years. Miss Allie Major will teach at the Broadway School House again. The pa? trons of that school appreciate her past work, and will make her a fine school. Several persons from this community have gone to Charleston this week. We wish them a pleasant trip and a safe re? turn. Hoosier. Holland's Store Items. The roads have pretty generally been worked, and they now look a little more like a civilized people inhabited this coun? try. The continued wet weather has some? what thrown our farmers back v ith their work. Cotton is pretty well picked out, with the exception of some late bolls that were made after the August rain. Tho crop will be an average oue, we think, after all the talk on both sides. Corn has nearly all been gathered, and has turned out pretty fair, except on river and creek bottoms. There will be a considerable crop of small grain sown this fall, if the weather is favorable. Potatoes are fine, 'possums are fat, and we will leave you to guess about what kind of a time we arc having. Partridges are numerous, and, judging from the amount of shooting going on, there is lit tie respect paid to the Jaw. Wild geese have made an appearance on the Savan? nah, and game of different kinds is plen? tiful. Our friends who visited the Piedmont Exposition have returned, and express themselves as being well paid for time and money spent. They tell some pretty good jokes on each other that occurred while in Atlanta. The patrons of the Ruhamah School have secured the services of Miss Mary Roberts as teacher. Miss Roberts comes highly recommended, and we trust will have the undivided co-operation of her patrons. Miss Bettie Earle will probably open a school next Monday two miles below Ru hamah,jjn the Lowndesvillo road. Wo trust Miss Bettie will have no trouble in getting a school, as she is a fine teacher, and a blind man could see that one is bad? ly needed in this section. We hope the patrons will give Miss Earle a school of at least eight months. We havo about reached the conclusion that schools which run from two to three months aro but lit? tle better than no school, aud also that if the public money was entirely dispensed with and every one thrown on his own re? sources, wo would have better schools. We charge nothing for this suggestion. Rev. B. M. Pack has been visiting re? cently in Texas. It is reported that ho will make tho "Lone Star State" his home at an early day. We trust, however, that it is incorrect, nud that ho will remain with us. Mr. B. F. Earle has gathered and had ginned oue bale of cotton from his brag acre patch. Wo will report tho result in full wheu the proper time arrives. Burke. Hats! Hats I Hast! Latest styles. Cheaper than ever. Good Wool Hats at 25cts. C. F. Jones & Co. A Card.

Wo can show you one of the grandest stocks ever brought to Anderson. Our motto is the lowest prices for everything. Respectfully, C. F. Jones & Co. Eurclca Items. Some say That nows items have no immediate connection. That since they were married thoy both look perfectly calm and serene. That the eggs and butter aro being saved for another wedding eake. That Col. John G. Clinlcscales does not know anything about what our poople have done to our school house, elso he would say something about it in the Teachors' Column. That ho would be surprised to see what decided improvements havo been made within the literary walls of the building sinco his intellectual cranium last entered the door. That one hundred and seven dollars spent for the improvement of thebuildiug by a committoo of such business men as Col. L. E. Campbell, B. B. Brea/.eale and W. A. Geer, is money well speut. That sinco the house has been ceiled, eight feet added to tho length of the build? ing, a rostrum, of the entire width of the house, eight feet deep, the entiro house furnished with good and comfortable seats, seven feet long, made by Mr. Beacham, of the city of Anderson, at a cost of $1.25 apieco, with an aisle four foet through tho centre, together with several other im? provements, it is needless to say that everything indicates intelligence, and points to a higher standard of education. That hereafter when there is growling heard in the Teachers' Column about the uncomfortable condition of school houses in Anderson County, that it is not at Eu? reka. That the community is greatly indebted to Col. L. E. Campbell, the Sunday School's beloved and able Superintendent, for the untiring zeal and deep interest which he has for tho last two years mani? fested in both tho literary and religious prosperity of the youth of our community. That the Sunday School is doing a work superior to many of the Churches. That the response, which Mrs, W. A. Geer made at the presentation of the pre? mium Bible by the Superintendent, was appropriate and tonching. That during the two last years some? thing over, three hundred dollars have been paid out by this community in mak? ing preparations for the education of the children, but this amount was partly raised by friends outside this community, to whom we all feel under many obliga? tions. * 30r All parties owing me must settle by 1st November next, and save trouble. 1G-3 Jno.
