Death of the Oldest Resident of An? derson. It is our sad duty this week to chroni? cle the death of the oldest resident of Anderson and perhaps the las!; of the original settlers of tho place. Wo allude to the death of Mr. Jeptha Forbes Wil? son, who died at his home on West Bel ton Street Tuesday night at 11 o'clock. He had been quite feeble for several weeks, and the greater portion of the time was confined to bis bed. He grad? ually grew weakor, without suffering much pain, until be finally closed his eyes as an infant going to sleep. Mr. Wilson was born near Old Pickens ville in 1818, and when two or throe years of age his father moved to Greenville, where he resided until 1828. In tho latter year tho town of Anderson had been lo? cated, and the deceased's father, who was a brick-mason, moved here, having se? cured the contract for building the old Court House. Mr. Wilson was then ten years of age, and did his first work on the Court House in carrying brick for tho workmen. He learned tho brick-mason's trade, and became one of the most skill? ed workmen in that occupation in upper Carolina, and for years did nearly all of the brickwork in this aud adjoining Counties. Mr. Wilson was in the 75lh y6ar of his ago, aud had spent his life in Anderson and vicinity. He was a man with a re? markable memory, and perhaps knew more of the history of Anderson than any mau now living. His mind was full of incidents and reminiscences connected with the history of Anderson. He had an interesting and peculiar style of relating them, and often has tho writer enjoyed listening to them. He never made a pro? fession of religion, but a more generous, true, kind-hearted, upright, honorable man never lived. He was widely known, and mado a friend of every acquaintance. Wo doubt if he ever had an cuomy. He was ever r ady to assist the poor and needy, and has done many a kind act that the world will never hear of. lie married >iiss ElizaSherard, daugh? ter or the la;? William Kherard, who re? sided iit Molfnltsville, and sho, with three sons und tw > daughters, survive him. To them we extend our sympathies in t!]<;ir bereavement.

The editors have come and gd?e, and the eighteenth annual session of the South Carolina Press Association can be record? ed as a most interesting and profitable meeting to all of the members who attend? ed it. Last W'.-dnesday evening hud been set apart for the meeting of the Association, und the afternoon trains brought in the majority of the members who were pres? ent. The attendance was smaller than usual, and, as a consequence, some of the members seemed to be a little despondent, but at 8.30 o'clock President Wallace called the Association to order in the Opara House, and prayer was offered by the chaplain. A number of our citizens had assembled to give the members a cor? dial welcome to our city. Mayor Tolly WBB on hand, and at the proper time step? ped forward and in one of his best and happiest speeches assured the members that they were welcome to the most progressive town or city in South Carolina. The Mayor fairly outdid himself, and when he took his seat each member of the Associa? tion felt that the word3 of the Mayor came straight from the heart. In his modest and inimitable style, President Wallace responded to the Mayor's address, and assured him that it was a great pleasure to the Association to convene in Anderson, whose reputation for genuine hospitality was known throughout the State. Thursday morning the Association con? vened in Its* first business session in the Masonic hall, with the following officers in their places: President, W. H. Wal? lace, Newberry Observer | Chaplain, Rev. Sidi H. Browne, Christian Neighbor ; Sec? retary, Ci H. Prince, Florence Times; Treasurer, Franz Melchers, Charleston Deutsche Zeitung. In addition to the officers there were about fifteen mem? bers present, and several others came in during tho day. B.. G. Osteen, of Sumter Watchman and W. W. Ball, of the Lanrens Adver? tiser, were proposed and elected members of the Association, and the usual commit? tees were appointed by the President. "How to conduct a newspaper contro? versy" was the first topic for discussion and was opened by H. M. Ayer, of the Florence Timesi. A number of the mem? bers participated in the discussion, which was exceeding interesting. Another inter? esting feature of the morning session was ? the reading of a paper on''The country editor as Journalist and printer," by Hugh Wilson, of the Abbeville Press and Banner. This paper gave the members some valuable suggestions, and was dis? cussed by several members. After trans? acting other business the Association took a recess. At the afternoon session Mrs. Virginia I D. Young, of the Allendale Enterprise, 1 and the only female member of the Asso? ciation, read a paper on "The Star of the West, or what a woman may do." It was a well prepared paper, and strongly advo? cated extending the elective franchise to woman. None of the brethren could en? dorse all of the views entertained by Mrs. Young, but her compr ition was listened to with interest, and the thanks of the Association were tendered her for the pa? per. After transacting other business, the Association adjourned until 830 p. m., when it reconvened in the Opera House to hear an address from the annual orator, Gen. E. M. Law, of the Yorkville Enter? prise. An appreciative audience greeted the orator and members. Gen. Law's subjpct was "The Use and Abuse of the Press," and he handled it in a manner that could not be equaled. The Associa? tion will publish the address in its min? utes. At the conclusion of Gen. Law's address, the Association repaired to the Hotel Chi quola and gathered around the festive board, where several hours were spent most delighfnliy. The banquet was ten? dered by the citizens, and was presided over by J. M. Sullivan, President of the Board of Trade. After prayer by the ven? erable chaplain of the Association, Mr. Sullivan delivered a most eloquent speech, in which be highly complimented the journalists of South Carolina and the Sleasnre it gave him to greet them in An erson. He then proposed the following toasts: The South Carolina State Press Associa? tion?Representative of public thought and non-partisan in character, is a body of men that asks no favors aud has no foes. Response by President W. H. Wallace. They City of Anderson?Progressive and prosperous, ehe ever welcomes merit, and proudly entertains the worthy guest. Response bv G. P. Tolly. The fourth Estate? ^"Mightiest of tho mighty mean-*, On which the ana of progress loans, Man's noblest mission to advance, His woes assuage, hh weal enhance, His rights enforce, his wrongs redress Mightiest of the mighty is The Press." Response by Col. J. A. Hoyt. South Carolina?Her safety aud pros? perity commands our utmost patriotism. Response by Geo E Prince. Woman?"The star in the West"?She ever shines in her sphere, und holds our admiration for what site is and what she does. Responded to b\ W. W, Ball. After the regular loustts impromptu re? marks were inade by several others who were called upon. Among others Capt. W. R. White, being called forth, said be could not make u speech, but would make a prediction, as follows : "On or about the 4th of March, 1893, Baby Ruth will draw up a chair to the table in Washington, D. C, and Baby McKee will be digging bait to go fishing." The first glance at the heavily ladened banquet tables gave evidence that Manager White had done his best for the occasion. The make-up of the menu was certainly original and unique, nearly every paper in the State being named, as for instance : "The Statu" brings Baked Red Snapper a la "News and Courier"; "Observer" ham, sauce '?Intelligencer"; "Spartan" "Her? alds" baked turkey, "Greenville Daily New?" style"; "Press and Banner" leg of | mutton, "Enterprise and Mountaineer" CapreSance; "Cleve and Steve" Cream; "Baby Ruth Fingers," etc. It was a late hour when the merry banqueters arose from the table, and it was the general ex Eression that a most delightful evening ad been spent. On Friday morning the members of the Association were given a drive over a por? tion of the city, and before 11 o'clock again assembled in business session. Af? ter transacting some important business, the committee on resolutions, through Mr. Ayer, its chairman, submitted the following, which were unanimously adopted : Providence has, during the past year, blessed our fraternity and prospered us. Our ranks are unbroken, from them no one has been called to lay aside his pen to leave forever the field of ef.rthly labors, and inasmuch as we are permitted to as? semble thus once more in Convention, Resolved, That we give our heartfelt thankB to the gracious Ruler of the Uni? verse for His care over us, and that as we are about to disperse from this happy gathering, Resolved, That we use our most dilligent efforts to carry into practice the principles learned here, and to use our influence to build up this Association. Resolved, Tuat our thanks be tendered to the good citizens of Anderson for their generous hospitality and kind treatment of us during our session in their beautiful city, and that we gratefully return our thanks to the Corporation and the Board of Trade for their courteous invitation to us to hold our Annual Convention here. Resolved, That our thanks be extended to the various railroads of the State for their courtesy to us in the issue of passes and special rates for our families. Resolved, That the thanks of the Associ tion be especially tendered to the manage? ment of the P. lt. <fc W. C. Railroad, and to Messrs. Geo Dole Wadley and W. J. Craig in particular for their marked cour? tesy in the matter of special passes, and to Mr. F. M. Emmerson for ais active per? sonal efforts in our behalf in the matter of securing transportation for our families over his own and other railroads. Resolved, That we will preservo ever fresh in our memory this delightful meet? ing and the kindness of the good people of Anderson, and we commend them to the care of their very excellent local press. The Association then elfoted the follow? ing officers: President, W. H. Wallace; 1st Vice-President, Gen. E. M. Law: 2nd. Vice-President, C. C. Langston; Chap laiD, Rev. Sidi H- Browne ; Secretary, C. H. Prince; Treasurer, Capt. Franz Mel cher.?. The Association decided to visit the World's Fair in a body next year, and the President, Secretary and Col. J. A. Hoyt were appointed as a Committee to make the necessary arrangements. The Association left the selection of the next place of meeting to the Executive Committee, aud then adjourned. Taken altogether the meeting was one of the most interesting the Association has ever held. It was certainly a great pleasure to us to greet our brethren and have them meet our people, and we can assure them that should they ever decide to visit us again our people will give them a warm, hearty welcome.

What a difference between the present part of | July and part of that month last year. Then we were suffering with a dry spell and were wishing it would rain, now it is just the reverse. It has been appropriate? ly said, that man's time is spent, "In wishing for rains and wishing it would clear off." May was a very fine month for catching up with our work, which most of us did, but June bos been a tough one, and from present indications July is go? ing to be a stumper. The "fourth" has come and gone, and nobody hurt that we know of. Some of our neighbors spent the day at Pelzer, taking in tho baseball games and other amusements. Messrs. Tom Balentine and Monroe Banister went to Augusta. They report a never-to-be gotten time. Being of a nature disinclin? ed to such frivolities we spent the day in laying by potatoes and reading the news. Mr. J. P. Maddox, one of our brag far? mers, predicts good times in the near fu? ture. We don't blamo him for such asser? tions when we remember the fact that he recently garnered one hundred and elev? en bushels of wheat, and now be has the appearance of a man that intends feeding on home-raised corn for another twelve month. So much for a farmers' alliance that is based on self-sustaining princi? ples. Mr. Oscar Anderson passed through this secsion a few days back with bis machin? ery, and threshed out our small grain in fine order. The people are well-pleased with his work. Mr. Anderson Is a very enterprising young man, and well de? serves the thanks of his many friends for his efficient work. - Some of our young people attended tho County Singing Convention, which con? vened with the Salem Baptist Church on the 9th and 10th inst. They enjoyed the program very much, and especially the kind treatment they received from that most hospitable people. Mr. M. N. Mitchell opened his school at Union Grove on Monday, the 11th inst., for a short term during the summer months. There was no preaching at Eureka on last Saturday, as had been announced, on account of the Singing Convention at Sa? lem, our pastor and others -wishing to at? tend. There will be preaching and con? ference at said place on Saturday before the second Sunday in August. Eureka, in the Grecian language, means "I have found it." And we think if any one in quest of a home in which to settle down and enjoy their allotted time on earth, should be led-by their guardian genii through our progressive communi? ty they would, in the Grecian tongue, cry out Eureka! Eureka! Our Church is situated on a gentle eminence surrounded by a luxuriant grove of grand old oaks, among which the gentle whisperings of ] the wind, and the sweet cooings of our native songsters are always to be heard. To the front ar. d right is the school-bouse surrounded by the roomy play-ground on which the children are wont to gambol in the freshness of innocent childhood. Flanked on all Bides by well cultivated farms and happy homes, the owners of I which are a hospitable, contented and progressive people. With a fertile Boil and a healthy climate, what is to hinder us from pushing forward and overcoming that great bugbear "hard times,", and de? veloping into an intelligent and progress? ive community ? In tho accomplishment of which we must have, to some extent, good health, ambition, the ability to man? age our affairs, and an indomitable ener? gy, with which we are bound to meet with success, however humble may be our start. Mr. Editor, wo have just boon reading the items of some of your correspondents, and to tell the truth we are heartily dis? gusted. How an intelligent person can write such nonsense is a mystery we can? not solve. Somo one we noticed is still harping on that threadbare subject "gen. green." Others are expanding their lite? rary talents in writing up every boy's girl they ever heard of, advertising their mustaches and indulging in silly person? alities in general. Some one went so far as to say that somebody else had more mustache on his brain than there was on his lip, and another gets so far off the track as to mention the fact that bis neighbor was tying his turkey out to graze. Mr. Editor, we don't especially object to tho p.bove, nor do we mean any? thing personal, but really we can't get much news out of other people's private affairs. Hurrah for tho Intelligencer, Shep pard and Orr! * * * Excursion to Tal In lab. Falls and Return, A few days ago the announcement was made that an Excursion Train would be run to Tallulah Falls on the 22nd of this month. Since that time the Railroad au? thorities have notified me that they can? not operate train on that day, but will run the train on? Thursday, July 21st. Now, if you want to take in this de? lightful trip, buy your tickets on or be foro Tuesday, July 19th. Remember, that the sale of tickets will be limited. It is proposed to make this trip respecta? ble, and we ex poet to have only a uecout party, so that Indies need not hesitato to go. Two Dollars for the round trip. See largo hand-bills. L, P, Smith, Manager. Cedar Grove Items. Politics, Tillman and Sheppard use to bo all tho talk In this section, but the tune has changed and it is now rain, rain, grass, grass, hard times and worse com? ing. Yes, boys, let Tillman and Shep? pard alone and go to pulling grass, and you will have more corn in your crib this fall. As B?ro as you live, Mr. Editor, these continuous rains makes me whistle like an Irishman when he eats crab ap? ples. Mr. Will Laboon and wife, of Brushy Creekt visited relatives in this section Saturday and Sunday. Miss Ella Mahaffy, of Williamston, is visiting in this community. A number of our young folks went to Pelzer on the 4th, and their serious coun? tenances attracted the attention of the WilliamBton police, who says they never spoke a word while passing through the town. Mr. Olin Copeland visited Williamston last Saturday night. Tell "Uncle Sam" if ho wants the peo? ple of Cedar Grove to vote for him to come around and let us see what side of the fence he is on. Don't straddle it for you might fall off and break yonr neck, and I pity a poor broke-neck office seeker. I am afraid poor Mr. Sheppard will come up in the August primary with a broken neck. Grit. Alice Newt. Sunshine is needed in our section. Mr. Kelly Mitchell had a lot or oati stolen from his field last week. Miss Ida Jones, of Atlanta, is visiting the family of her uncle, Mr. J. C. Half. We regret that her stay is limited. The protracted meeting begins at Kooky River next Sunday, but we fear that there is too much grass at present for the people to attend regularly. Mr. Hiram Hall, of Texas, but formerly of this County, is now visiting his father, Mr. A. J. Hall, and other relatives. His old friends are delighted to greet him. Mr. Foster Anderson's gold mine Is on a boom. Mr. Dargan Hall has the best cotton in this vicinity. Rev. J. T. Morgan preached a very in? teresting uermon at Rocky River last first Sunday. He will preach there next first Sunday at 11 o'clock a. m. A few days ago a mule ran away with I Mr. W. P. Hall, but fortunately he was not hurt. Mr. Clay tou Hampton says he needs an? other hoe hand. We think he can find one up about the Institute. Our people want S. O. Jackson for Coun? ty Commissioner and W. P.

You meot while thoro so many instances of terrible blood poison, evi? denced by disfigurement of face and form. Hither, rush sufferers from scrofu? la, syphillis, eczema, salt rheum, ulcers, blemished skin, rheumatism, etc., olc. Some find relief, some do not and come away poor in purse and groviously dis? appointed. It costs money to visit and sojourn at Hot Springs. The experi? ment of going thero cannot be indulged in without considerable expense. How thankful then should ovory one bo to know that there is a romedy even more beneficial in cases of blood poison than than Hot Springs. Wo refer to Botanic Blood Balm as to its merits thousands will testify. Z. T. Hallerton, Macon, Ga., writes: "I contracted blood poison. I first tried Physicians and then went to Hot Springs, returned home a ruined man physically. Nothing seemed to do me any good. My mother persuaded me to try B. B. B. To my utter astonishment every ulcer quickly healed." Jas. I. Bosworth, Atlanta, Ga., says : "Some years ago I contracted blood poi? son. I bad no appetite, my digestion was ruined, rheumatism drew up my limbs, so I could hardly walk, my throat was cauterized five times. Hot Springs gavo mo no benefit and my life was a torture until I gave B. B. B. a test, and surprising as it may seem, tbe use of ffve bottles cured me." n . Gr. MANS, JR.
