White, of Westminster, who travels for Arnold, Carlton & Co., whole? sale grocers, Atlanta, 6a., spent last Tues? day in the oity and paid the Intelligen? cer a pleasant call. Mr. White is an old Anderson .County boy, and his visits to the city are alwsys a pleasure to his nu? merous friends. Anderson County never produced a better man. We have not met a man who is opposed to building a new Court House, and the subject is being freely discussed. Nearly every man favors tearing down the pres? ent building and rebuilding on a lot near the Square, and then make a beautiful park out of the Square, leaving a broad street all around it. This, we think, is the best idea su/gested.

It gives all necessary informa? tion in reference to the tuition, rates, etc., of the College. Mr. D. H. Woodson, an enorgetio young farmer of Broadway Township, has a very fine acre-patch of cotton.

I The Citadel Cadets, who are now en? camped in Greenville, rendered the popu? lar opera, "The Mikado," in the Opera House .of that city last Friday evening. Cadet P. K. McCully, Jr., of this city, took part in the opera, and the News, in speaking of it says this of him: "Mr. McCnlIy'8 personation of 'Pish-Tush' was simply splendid, his clear tenor voice showing to great advantage in the rather difficnlt solo, 'Our great Mikado.'"

She was truly a good woman, and her death i3 mourned by a wide circle of friends and relatives. Her remains were interred at NeaTs Creek Church. The County Farmers' Alliance of New barry has decided to hold a Farmers' In? stitute at Prosperity, S, C-, on the 14th and 15th of August. Several prominent farmers have been iuvited to address the Institute. Among them we notice the name of Hon. B. F. Cray ton, who is re quested to deliver an address on the sub-! j?ct of ."Intensive Farming and Under? drawing." The farmers from all sections of the State are invited to attend the In? stitute, On our fourth page this week will be found a large, new and attractive adver? tisement of the celebrated " W. L. Doug? lass Shoes," which should be read care? fully by every reader of the Intelligen? ces. We have been wearing a pair of these shoes for several months, and we do not hesitate to say that it is the best and most comfortable shoe we have ever worn. Messrs. C. F. Jones & Co. are the agents for tho sale of these shoes in An? derson, and they are soiling a large num? ber of them, for when a man buys one pair he will be sure to come and buy an? other pair when he needs them. The shoes are made for both sexes in several styles, and at different prices, the best hand-sewed men's shoo being sold at $5.00. They are sold under a guarantee, and we advise you to try a pair. Mrs. Louisa N. Emerson, tho beloved wife of Mr. Samuel Emerson, died at her home in Martin Township, on Wednes? day night, 10th inst., after a long and painful illness. Mrs. Emerson was a daughter of the late Wm. McGee and had always been a resident of this County. She was a most excellent Christian lady, and will be greatly missed in 'her imme? diate neighborhood. She was ever ready to assist the needy, comfort the distressed and minister to the suffering, and those' who knew her best ioved her most She I was about 62 years of age, and had long I been a faithful member of the Baptist Church. Her remains were interred in the Ebenezer Churchyard, Rev. J. S.Mur? ray conducting the funeral services. A husband, five sons and one daughter are left to cherish her memory. The East Boundary Club indulged in its third annual banquet at the Jordan House on Monday night, and a very pleasant evening was spent. As is well known, this Club is composed of the boys residing in the eastern portion of the city. Their first banquet was held three years ago in a kitchen. and last year it took place at a private honse. This year they decided to have the banquet on a more extensive scale, and a number of their friends, the writer among them, were invited to partake of the feast with them. The club, with their guests, repaired to the Jordan House about 01 o'clock, and they soon began to devour the good things set before them. The dining-room was neatly and tasefully decorated with flow? ers and evergreens, the words, "East Boundary," in large letters, being arched aoross one end of the room. Mr. Baylis Clarke presided, end at the conclusion of the repast, he called upon a number of the members and guests for speeches, several of whom responded. At intervals during the evening the Harris brothers discoursed some sweet music. Before dismissing the crowd, the boys enjoyed a stag dance, after which they retired to their homes, each one wishing that the East Boundary boys may long live to celebrate similar occasion a. In the death of Mr. James Hunter, who died at his home in Pendleton last Fri? day night, Anderson County loses one of her best and most progressive citizens. Mr, Hunter was about 69 years of age, and was ill only a short time, though he had been in feeble health for several months. He had been u resident of Pen? dleton nearly all of his life, and waB known throughout this section as a gen? tleman of strict business integrity. He was full of energy, perseverance and pub? lic spirltedness, and was'highly esteemed by an extensive acquaintance. Mr. Hun? ter learned the trade of a blacksmith, which hp followed until about fifteen years ago, when he entered tho mercan? tile business, and at the time of his death was at the head of the firm of James Hun tee & Sons. Success crowned his "efforts throughout life. He started life as a poor boy, and died possessed of a fine estate. A wife, three sons and two daughters, together with a host of relatives &nd friends, are left to mourn his death. On Sunday, after appropriate funeral services conducted by Rev. Dr. Adger, his remains were interred at tho new Presbyterian cemetery with Masonic honors. The fu? neral was attended by a very large crowd, all of whom realized that a good man had been called to his eternal home. Sheriff Bolt has returned from his visit to friends and relatives in Laurens Coun Iy, and reports a most pleasant trip. Du? ring his trip he visited his kinsman, Mr. Robert Hellams, who lives on the Green? ville- & Laurens Railroad, in Laurens County, and he tells us that Mr. Hellams is just finishing a dwelling house that is attracting a good deal of attention. The houne is a two-story building, containing six rooms, and is built of small flint rock with lime mortar. Outside of bis own labo::, the houso has co?t Mr. Hellams about ?250.00. Mr. Bolt says the rock make a very substantial and pretty house, and is of the opinion now that flint rock were put on our plantations for a wise purpose. Those of our citizens who have more flint rock on their land than they know what to do with, should talk with Mr. Bolt, and ho will convince them that they can build a good house of the rock at a small cost. Closing Exercises of Moffattsville Acad? emy. It was our good fortune to witness the closing exercises of Moffattsville Acade? my, in Corner Township, ilast Friday evening. In company with Mr. R. C. Webb, we left the city .about 4 o'clock Friday afternoon, and after a very pleas? ant drive we arrived at Generostee Church, where the Academy is located and where the exercises were held, about sundown. The people were coming in from every direction for a distance of ten miles around, and when the hour for the exer? cises to begin arrived, the crowd in at? tendance was estimated at from one thousand to twelve hundred people. The Church had been vacated of all of its pewB, which, together with a large num? ber of chairs, were arranged in the pretty grove around a large stage which had been erected at one end of the Academy boilding. It was a most beautiful moon? light night, and the merry clatter of the happy children's voices, together with the beaming faces and radiant smiles of the older persons, made up a grand scene. The stage was beautifully decorated with flowers and eveigreens, nnd was so ar? ranged that every one present could get a good view of the exercises. In one cor? ner was a piano, which was used in fur? nishing music during the evening. At about 8i o'clock Prof. S. J. McElroy, the efficient and courteous Principal of the Academy, in a few appropriate re? marks extended a cordial welcome to the audience, and announced that the exer? cises were ready to begin. After a fervent prayer by Rev. Calvin Pressley, the fol? lowing programme was rendered: Recitation?''Down in the Mire," Miss Kate Stevenson. Piano Duett?"Waves of the Ocean March," Masters Howe and Wideman Ligom" Essay?"The Money Power and its Dan? gers," Mason Sherard. Essay?"In Gathering Roses Look Out for the Thorns," Miss Maggie Stevenson. Song and chorus by the School. Reciiation?"Do Something," Master Ira Wiles. Recitation?"The Falling Snow," Miss PaUieHaU. Recitation?"Boys Wanted," Master Calvin Pressley. Piano Duett?"Jordan Polka," Misses Sherai d and Beaty. Recitation?"Grandpa's Spectacles," Master Wideman Ligon. Recitation?"One Hundred Years from Now," Miss Eula Morgan. Recitation?"We Must All Scratch," Master Wade Sherard. Recitation?"On a Confederate Note," Miss Susie McCullough. Song Charade?"Broom Drill," by fif? teen small girls. Recitation?"Somebody's Mother," Mas? ter Howe Ligon. Recitation?"Creeds of the Bells," Miss Minnie- McCullongh. Song and chorus by the School. Radiation?"The Unknown Dead," Miss Alkanza Tucker. Recitation?"Aunt jemima's Court? ship," Miss Sallie Sherard. Piano \ Duett?"Gen. Boulanger's March," Masters Willie and Wade Sher? ard. A .Comic Court Scene?"Boperln vs. Dudeling," twenty characters. Piano ,8010?"Gan. Segal's Grand | March,," Miss Lula Sherard. A Comic Drama?"A Cure for Obsti? nacy," two male and ten female charac? ters, Piano Duett?''Military Galop," Misses i Blake and Sherard. The programme thronghout was well j rendered, each one sustaining hi? or her part very creditably. The essays and re? citations were especially good, and would have done credit to older persons. The exerciss3 were quite varied, being both amusing apd instructive. It was nearly 12 o'clock before the programme was concluded, and the large orowd present seemad to regret that it could not be pro? longed. Prof. McElroy deserved ,the many congratulations he received on the success of the occasion. The Academy, which is located in one ofthebest sections of Anderson County, has closed a very prosperous session, hav? ing had nearly one hundred pupils on its roll. The building Ss a very comfortable one; and is to be enlarged bofore the school opens in the fall. The people of that section are deeply interested in the cause of education, und they propose to make this Academy second to none in the County. They have done well in se? curing the services of such a teacher as Prof. McElroy and they should use every effort to keep him an long as possible. DuriDg the past session Prof. McElroy has been ably assisted by Miss Leona Blake, of Greenwood, who has also taught music in the school. She is a first honor graduate of the Due West Female College, and a most accomplished young lady. At the conclusion of the exercises we went to the hospitable home of our good friend, Dr. J. Walter Sherard, whore we Bpent tho night most pleasantly. The Doctor has a very pretty home, and a charming wife to preside over it. He has throe bright little children, and is well fixed to enjoy this life, This was our first trip to the Corner on an ocoasion of this kind, but we met so many clever people, saw so many pretty girls and had such a pleasant time, that we have determined to go back again when the firet opportunity offers itself.
