The individual contest between the Cadets of the Patrick Military Institute took place last Friday night and was wit? nessed by a large crowd. The Cadets were under the command of Lieut. J. M. Patrick, and the Cadet Captains and Lieutenants acted as Judges of the drill. The Cadets handled their guns like vet? erans, and tbe contest finally narrowed ! down to Cadets Whitlock, Riley and Tal bsrt. To the audience it seemed that it would be difficult to decide between these three, but the Judges were not long in awarding the prize to Cadet Whitlock, of Union County. Mr. Hamp. Holleday, who lives in Greenville County, about two miles from Cooley's Bridge, committed suicide last Tuesday byjtaking a dose of strychnine. Recently he and his wife separated. On Tuesday morning he went to a field where Mrs. Holleday was working, and asked hor to go to the. house, as ho wanted to talk with her. She refused to go. He then returned to the house, and shortly afterwards was found dead. A pistol and a box labelled "strychnine" was found in his pockets. It is believed that he in? tended to kill his wife and then kill him? self. Mr. Holleday was about 55 years of age. The Greenville News, of the 10th inst., says: "The stockholders of the Pelzer Manufacturing Company met in their office at Pelzer yesterday with most of the stock represented. A News reporter sought after the particulars of the meet? ing, but could only learn that all the old officers were re-elected, and that the results of the meeting were perfectly sat? isfactory in every way to the officers and stockholders of the mill. No business of public importance, the reporter learned, was transacted. Tho stockholders of the Chicora Savings Bank, who aro composed, to a great extent, of the stockholders of the Pelzer Company, also had a meeting, and all the old officers were re-elected." About 5 o'clock last Saturday afternoon tbo fire alarm was sounded, caused by some cotton having caught fire at the Savannah Valley depot. The Fire Department turned out promptly, butbeforeany water could be thrown the fire had gained con? siderable headway. About ninety balos of cotton were burned. The cotton belonged to several merchants, but bad been receipt? ed for by the Railroad. The cotton, how over, was insured. The platform scales and scale house were also burned. It is sup? posed the cotton caught fire from a spark from the engine. On Sunday afternoon the firemen were again called to the depot, as it was discovered that several of the balos were still burning. Last Friday was "Decoration Day," and it was observed by Miss Lenora C. Hub bard's school. Rev. C. B. Smith was to have delivered an address to the school on the occasion, but be was called away and did nor. get back in time. Miss Hub bard, with her tw o assistant teachers and eighty pupils, took part in the exercises, which consisted simply in decorating the graves of the soldiers. The day was one of peculiar sadness to the school, as they were called upon to decorate the newly made grave of one of its best friends and patrons, Mr. S. M. Craynon. There are forty-nine soldiers buried in our ceme? teries, as follows; Catholic, 1; Silver Brook, 1; Baptist, 17; Presbyterian, 22 Confederates and 7 Federals. All the above cemeteries were visited, and the graves of all the soldiers, including the Federals, were beautifully decorated with flowers. Mr. M. J. Webb, formerly editor of the Elberton (Ga.) Leader, spent a day in An? derson recently, and this is what he writes to the Elberton Gazette about our growing city: "On yesterday I accompanied a gay party on a trip to Anderson, S. C, and saw Buch a spirit of progress as I haye observed nowhere else. A large cotton factory is to be the pride of the city, and a mammoth four story hotel building is to be a lasting monument to the enterprise of men who belong to our rejuvinated South, while private residences, a new National Bank and other public and pri? vate buildings are thrown in for good measure. Land' 1 estates are being divid? ed up and sold at about one-half they were held at ten years ago, and new comers with abundant means are filling up the country. A well-equipped female college is contemplated, and Rev. A. A. Marshall is to be its president."

Oar Trip to Erwln's Mill. Last Thursday afternoon, in company with our young friends, R. L. Robinson, J. N. Watkins, R. C. Webb, G. F. Bigby and Walter Geer, we left Anderson, our ultimate destination being Krwin's Mill, on Saluda River, in Abbeville County, where the Honea Path and Gents vi lie Reading Club3 were to have a pic nie on the day following. We were driving swift horses, the roads were in good condition, and each member of our party felt happy with pleasant an? ticipations of what was in store for us during the trip. The crops along the road had been worked nicely, and looked well, though needing rain badly. Our drive was exceedingly pleasant, and about dark we drove into Honea Path, where we were to spend the night. We accepted the kind invitation of Prof. J. B. Watkins, the accomplished and en ergotic Principal of the Honea Path High School, and spent the night under his roof. The Professor has recently built a commodious house, in a beautiful grove, near the school building, and if he only had a wife to preside over it lie would be prepared to enjoy this life to the fullest extent.. At present he has about twenty pupils of both sexes boarding with him, and a lady of experience looks after his household affairs. His school roll now numbers about two hundred pupil?, which is perhaps the largest school in upper Carolina. He is deservedly popu? lar with both his patrons and pupils, and the work be is doing in that section will be felt for years to come. Honoa Path should never give him up. The Profes? sor is a most courteous, excellent gentle? man, and if he don't hurry up and get married, some girl should try the "Lean Year" game on him. Friday morning dawned bright and clear, and at an early hour the people from the surrounding country were on the road to Erwin's Mill, which is about six miles east of Honoa Path. In compa? ny with a charming young lady, we drove out to the pic nie grounds. As is well knowu, the corners of four Counties?Anderson, Abbeville, Laurcns and Greenville?come together a short distance above the Mill, and these Coun? ties never fail to be largely represented at the annual pic nics held there. It is a beautiful place for a pic nie. The scenery around, is grand and romantic, and the beautiful elms, water-oaks, holly bush, ivy and thick shrubbery, together with the lovely countenances of the many pretty girls present, presented asiceno that is hard to describe. By 12 o'clock the crowd present was estimated at from eight hundred to one thousand persons. The major portion of the crowd soon gathered around a stand, which stood under the shade of some lofty oaks at the lower end of the lawn. After a fervent prayer from Rev. D. W. Hiott, Prof. J. B. Watkins called the meeting to order, and stated that Rev. A. A. Marshall and Hon. W. C. Benet, who had been invited to address the Reading Clubs, wero unavoidably absent, He then introduced Mr. Hiott, who, though just from a sick bed, made a most excellent address in his usual happy style. At the conclusion of the address, the crowd scattered in groups and couples, but it was not long before the dinnor bas? kets were brought out, and on all sides could be seen an abundance of good things. We received numerous invita? tions to dine .with friends, and our only regret was that we could not accept all of them. We accepted the invitation from a fair friend, and fared most sumptuously. The afternoon was spent in various ways, and to minutely describo all that happened or recount all the pleasures of the pastime would consume space alloted to other matters. Suffice it to say that the hours flitted away as moments, and everybody present, both old and young, seemed to make good use of their timo. Ti?o beys or.gagod \n n game of bnso ball, the courting couples talked "politics," and the older folks talked of more serious matters. Tho cheerful face of Mr. M. Er? win was missed very much from the gay crowd, Since the last annual pic nie there, he has been called to his long home. His excellent ^family, however, were present on the grounds, and did every? thing in their power for tho enjoyment of the crowd. We have never seen a larger crowd of pretty girls at a pic nie, nor do we remember to have ever met a more hospitable, genial or sociable set of peo? ple than was assombled there. It was late in the afternoon before the crowd began to disperse Our party came back to Honea Path, where the young people bad arranged to have a Lawn Party during the evening. After partaking of a hearty supper, we went to the Lawn Party, but as we bad determined to return home that night, we had to loave, much to our regret, before the pleasures of the evening had fairly set in. We reached home that night, and our chaperon, Mr. J. N. W.atkins, who was the only married man of the party, told us that as we all had been good boys on the trip he would let us go down there again at some future time. Nothing hap? pened to mar the pleasures of the trip, though one of the boys came home with a Bevere headache, and at least two others with severe cases of heartache. Death of Mr. Cray ton. Mr. Samuel M. Crayton, whose death we mentioned briefly last week, was the eld? est son of Hon. B. F. Crayton, and was born and reared in Anderson, and has always resided in or near the city. At tbe time of his death he was in tho 46th year of his age. He had been in feeble health for several months, but was not confined to his room until about seven weeks ago. He was afflicted with heart disease, and during the time ho was con? fined to his room he was unable to lie down, having to sit almost helpless in his chair. Five minutes before tho summons of death came to him, he was sitting in his chair reading a newspaper. Suddenly he felt a change come oyer him, and, in a feeble voice, he called to his good wile, who was near by, but by the time she could get him on the bed his spirit had departed to the better world. While, of course, his death was daily expected, when the sad announcement was made there was a general expression of regret. He bore his illness with the resignation and patience that has always character? ized his lifo, and when death called him he was prepared to go. Mr. Crayton was highly esteemed and beloved by all who knew him, and we doubt if ho had an onemy. We feel our inability to do justice to his many noble virtues. Ab one of our first Sunday School teachers, well do we remember the noble precepts he taught us and the lasting impressions he made upon our youthful mind. Since then we have known him intimately, and his daily walk through life exhibited all the char? acteristics of a true Christian. His dispo? sition was most gentle and affectionate, and he was ever ready to assist the needy or speak a cheerful word to those who were in sorrow or trouble. Mr. Crayton served throughout the war in the Rutledge Mounted Rifles, and bis old comrades give him the praise of being one of the best sol? diers that fought for the Confederacy. He was severely wounded at the battle of Ridley's Shop, but as soon as he recov? ered he again entered tho service, where he remained until the surrender. Tho mule which he rode at the surrender was brought home, and is still living. His tender care of this animal is only another illustration of his kind and humane dis? position. Mr. Crayton, sinco his boyhood, was a faithful member of the Presbyterian Church, and for a number of years past served his Church as a Beacon. On last Thursday his remains wore interred in the Presbyterian Cemetery, the funeral services being conducted by Rev. Dr. Frierson, in the presence of a large con? course of friends and relatives. The Knights of Honor, of which he was a member, attended the funeral in a body. He leaves a wife and four children. The familiar face of Sam'l M. Crayton will not be seen again on this earth, but his memory will be cherished by tho many friends he has left behind. A Public Lecture. Ma.
