A critical young woman says: "Do, for goodness sake, say something in the newspapers about the silly way women have of kissing each other every time they meet. If a dozen women were to come together on the street, the last arrival would have to kiss around. If I had my way, kissing would be confined to family use and for medicinal purposes, and not indulged in as a beverage." A Boston drummer tells the following: "One of the meanest men it was ever my misfortune to have any dealings with was a retail grocer, who at the time was sell? ing a poor woman three pounds of com? mon crackers for 25 cents, for which he paid at the rate of 6 cents per pound, but to make his scales exactly balance he found it necessary to break a cracker in two. As this man finally met death by falling down stairs and breaking his neck, I thought be received only his just dues." I Every laborer is worthy of his hire. Pay all hired help promptly, so they will cheerfully and willingly do your bidding. Nobody who works for wages should be forced to earn them a second time by repeated asking for their pay.

Some time since the firm attempted to foreclose the mortgage, when they learned that Fleming owned no real estate, but had given a mortgage on property which he had no title or interest in. In the meantime Fleming had gone to Georgia, where he was arrested, and, under a requisition, brought back to South Carolina. He is an old offender, having bean in jail once before under a charge of arson. Prof. W. P. Holland's school at Leba? non celebrated the Centennial of Wash? ington's inauguration on Tuesday by a series of exercises appropiiate to the occa? sion, in the presence of a large crowd of the friends and patrons of the school. The exercises consisted in recitations re? ferring to events in the life of Washington, and were repeated alternately by the boys and girls. At the close of these exercises, Rev. A. A. Marshall addressed the audi? ence for a half hour in his usual happy style, and then an adjournment was had for dinner, which was in the usual Leba? non style. After dinner the audience re? assembled and Mr. D. H. Russell, our efficient School Commissioner, made a fine talk to the children. The day was a very enjoyable one. Wednesday morning a number of the hands engaged in tearing down the Ma? sonic building came near meeting with a fatal accident. They were at work on the second floor when a portion of the south wall fell in upon them, carrying the floor through and precipitating several of the hands to the floor below. Messrs. A. B. Skelton and Nish. Emmerson were pain? fully hurt, and the latter, it is feared, is seriously injured. One of bis hips was dislocated, and be was bruised in several places. Two negroes, Dick Chamblee and Henry Jones, were also badly injured. Both bones of Jones's left leg were broken. The extent of Chamblee's inju? ries, at this writing, are not known, but it is feared he is hurt internally. Several other hands were slightly wounded and badly scared. Mr. Jackson, one of the contractors, was also slightly wounded. Those who witnessed the accident say it is remarkable that no one was killed, and it is Jthought that the floor giving away ia what saved the lives of the hands; The wounded men received the attention of several physicians immediately, and it is to be hoped that their injuries will not prove serious.

Mr. Thomas Hani;in Anderson died at Lhe house of his son-in law, Dr. E. G. Wilherspoon Wednesday, 17th April, 1889, and his remains were interred the next day in the cemetery of Roberts Church, of which he had been an exemplary member for thirty vears, and a deacon first and then ruling elder for more than half that time. He was born Jan. 2, 1827, of wor? thy parentage, in Christ Church Parish, Berkeley County, then Charleston Dis? trict. He married Miss Eugenia Norris, daughter of Dr.-Norris, of Pendleton, about or before 1852, with whom he lived most happily to the day of his death, and who now, with two sons and two daugh? ters, sadly mourn his demise. He had beerj in very bad health for more than a year, and, that he might be the better nursed and cared for, at the urgent request of his son-in-law, Dr. W., ana of his de? voted daughter, the Doctor's wife, he and wife and youngor daughter moved to the Doctor's house two or more months ago, where he received every attention that sin? cere affection and trained skill could fur? nish, Mr. Anderson was an intelligent and upright citizen, a kind friend and ob? liging neighbor, a loving husband and tender father, a devoted Christian and faithful cburch officer. No man in the community in which he lived possessed the confidence and esteem of his neighbors in a greater degree than he did, and his humble, godly walk and influence will be greatly missed at home, in the church and throughout the community.
