Mr. Carlisle, who has been a candi? date for Sheriff, has withdrawn from the race, as he can't continue to make the can? vass under the circumstances. An amusing game of ball was played in the city laBt Friday afternoon* between the "fats" and "leans." The score stood 30 to 13 in favor of the "fats." The smallest man 6n the "fats" weighed 190 and the. largest 300 pounds. Another game will be played Friday afternoon by the same nines on the P. M. I. grounds. A small fee oflO cents will be charged to witness the game, and the amount realized will go towards liquidating a debt of the An? derson Base Ball Club.

There were between 75 and 100 persons present. The speaker was introduced by J. W. Quattlebaum, Esq. Mr. Childs made an earnest address, but was too unwell to go into the subject as extensively as he wished. Mr. Childs desires to have an organization effected in this County, and Col. B. F. Browne was elected Chairman of the County Prohibi? tion Executive Committee, with power to name the other members of the Commit? tee. Mrs. Mary A. Masters died at bei' home four miles south of the city last Snnday afternoon, after a long and painful illness, aged 58 years. Mrs. Masters was? the relict of the late Priestly Masters, and a daughter of Rev.

L. Martin conducting the funeral services. Capt. John T. Hacket, a Confederate veteran, died on the 5th inst. in the city of Atlanta, aged 65 years. He was widely known in this State, and entered the Con? federate army as a private in the Palmetto .Riflemen, which went from Anderson. Afterwards he served on the staff of Gen. Wofford, who commanded a brigade of Georgians. Capt Haoket was a gallant soldier, a warm-hearted, genial compan? ion, and was highly esteemed by a large circle of [friends in Georgia and South Carolina. A few years ago he traveled in this section for an Atlanta House, but his health Mied and he was compelled to quit business. His remains were taken for in? terment to Clarksvllle, Ga., where he was raised. A few weeks ago a party of Anderson ians were talking of making a pleasure trip to Lookout Mountain, Tenn., but upon inquiry at the BP. & D. R. B. depot the agent stated there were no excursion tickets on Bale to that delightful summer resort. A few days ago we were informed by the R. & D. authorities and in a letter from Mr. G N. Knight, Asst Gen. Pas. Agt of the East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia Railway system, of Atlanta, that a round trip rate of $15.25 had been ar? ranged from Anderson to Lookout Moun? tain. The tickets are now on sale and are Sood to retnrn until 1st October. You ave choice of two routes from Atlanta, both of which run through an interesting section of country.

Bel ton Democratic Club, No. 2, com? posed of 135 members, at a special meet? ing last Saturday afternoon adopted the following resolutions by a unanimous vote: Resolved, That we hereby formally ex? press our pleasure and gratification at the nomination by the Chicago Conven? tion of Grover Cleveland and Adlai E. Stevenson ; that we recognize in this se? lection tho triumph of sound statesman? ship and undefiled Democracy, the en? dorsement of honesty in public life and purity in National politics, the rebuke of designing demagogues and the condem? nation ofhoresies inimical to the integ? rity of the party aud dangerous to the people's welfare. Resolved, That the members of this Club pledge themselves as an organiza? tion and as individuals to labor iu unison with the Democracy in behalf of its stau dard bearers and by every reasonable moans to encourage tho support of the only ticket that antagonizes no ho:.e~t interest and through the prevention of extravagant legislation and the proper reduction and regulation of tarirTtaxa tion, promises relief to all conditions and classes. A Tree is Known by Its Fruit. Messrs Editobs : The term of our pres? ent City Council has nearly expired. We place the same gentlemen in nomination for re-electioa. Their conception of offi? cial duty has been that "publto office is-a public trust." Fidelity and ability and progress have marked their administra? tion of municipal affairs. They are now rich in experience. Let us give them another term. Voter. Came Mills and Evaporators.? Call ejtrly and avoid the rush.

Pursuant to a call, representatives from the Executive Committees of each of the four Democratic Clubs of the City of Anderson met in the Court House for the purpose of arranging for a Primary Elec? tion to nominate a Mayor and sis Alder? men to be voted for at the regular City election. J. P. Duckett was called to the chair and K. E. Ligon acted as secretary. J. L. Farmer moved that a Primary Election be held for tbe nomination of said officers on Tuesday, the 2nd day of August next, between the hours of 0 o'clock a. m. and 4 o'clock p. m.; and if a second primary was ..necessary it be held on the Friday following at tbe same hours. Carried. A majority of all votes cast will be re? quired to nominate. W. F.

Carried, 8. T, Craig moved that one member of each board of managers be constituted a committee to tabulate tbe returns and declare'the election. Carried.

Samp Sampson and Mot Keith, two colored men, died last Sunday, and tbey were buried on tbe following day in the Belton cemetery for the colored people. A great many of our colored population in the vioinity of Belton have died within the last twelve months, mostly of con? sumption. The entertainment, at Stringer's Hall on Monday night, the 18th inst., was a grand success, both as to the acting of the parts and the amount of cash realized from the occasion. The Trustees of the school have recently purchased a piano for tho school, and the money taken in at the entertainment goes toward paying for the instrument. We hope our young people will give us another such occasion ere long. Prof. J. W. Qaines, Principal of the male school at Williamston, attended tbe dramatic exhibition here Monday evening. Prof. Qaineu has done a good work at Williamston the past year, and bis ser? vices have been secured for another year. The Conservative Democrats of Belton Township met here last Saturday, the 19th inst., and passed resolutions endors? ing Cleveland and Stevenson, and attend? ed to other important business. Belton, I think, is almost wholly for Sbeppard and Orr. Wednesday, the 27th inst., has been ap Sainted for the purpose of cleaning off the elton Cemetery. Taw. Honea Path Item'!. The Cokesbury District Conference-con? vened with tbe Honea Path Methodist Church on Wednesday night of last week. The introductory sermon was preached by Re v. E. B. Taylor, of Princeton. At 9 o'clock' Thursday morning the Presiding Elder, J. B. Campbell, called the Conference to order. After roll call, Rev. J. M. Stead man was elected Secre? tary and T. E. Epting assistant. Revs. M. McGee and A. C. Stepp were introduc? ed to the Conference. The reports from the various charges were thou taken up and continued at intervals during the Conference. These reports showed con? siderable growth in the various depart? ments of Church work, and brought out the fact that nearly all the pastors are op? posed to employing the modern evangel? ist, and a resolution was passed that it should not be done. Able sermons were preached during the Conference by Revs. J. B. Traywick, J. C. Stoll, John O.Wilson,-Brabham, J. M. Steadman, J. B. Campbell and Dr. S. B. Jones. The sermons of Rev. J. B. Campbell at tbe Baptist Church on Sun? day and of Dr. Jones at the Methodist Church were especially tino. Prof. Kembert made a strong speech in behalf of Woflbrd College Fitting School. J. C. Kilgo made one of tho grandest speeches on education to which we have ever listened to. Dr. S. B. Jones made a stirring speech in behalf of Columbia Female College. Prof. Lander spoke in behalf of Williamston Female College. W. D. Kirk laud made an excellent speech for the Southern Christian Advocate. He took strong grounds against Metho? dists taking tbe "Holiness Paper" instead of their denominational organ. On Sunday afternoon a Sunday-School mass meeting was held at the Methodist Church, and addresses were delivered by Brabham, Campbell, Steadman and Jones. About seventy-five delegates were in attendance. All the charges were repre? sented. All the pastors were present ex? cept P. Kilgo, of Greenwood Station, and A. F. Berry, of Saluda Circuit, both of whom were kept away by sickness. The report on Temperance was made by Rey. E. B. Taylor, and a resolution was passed instructing all the pastors to preach temperance sermons between now and the 30th of August. A protracted meeting is in progress at the Methodist Church this weok, and the congregations are good, notwithstanding tbe buBy time. Rev. W. W. Daniel, of New berry, is conducting the meeting, and we trust that God will make bis able preaching a blessing to the Church and community. Honea Path has bad so many prominent visitors during the past week that we will not attempt to give any personals along that line. The Conference is over, but we still see some frying chickens. We are informed that they are waiting for tbe Association. ^ Mr. J. E. Harper is teaching at Friend? ship. Mr. Paul S. Cox has gone to take charge of his school again, after a few weeks' vacation. Miss Lizzie Brock will close her school on Friday, 29th inst. We understand that she has had a very successful session. Politics is talked a great deal, but the excitement has subsided and good humor generally prevails. Wouldn't it be wise for all the Democratic Clubs at their meetings next Saturday to puss resolu? tions asking that the State campaign meeting be not held in this County ? Mr. T. J. Clatwortby has had his house painted, and it now presents a beautiful appearance. Under direction of Mr. Hayne, the wooden store-room j of Main Street have been moved back several feet, giving more room on the street and a better ap? pearance to the town. We would suggest l that a thorough painting would be a great i improvement to those buildings. HA largo number of our people expect to ?o on the excursion to Tallulah Thurs ay. Pop. Needle's Newell News. This leaves us all in tbe grass. Wo have dug the stuff up and raked it and rolled it around until it has got into round balls with roots on every side. We try to keep it stirred up between showers, but I can't tell you just now whether we will get it killed or not. Cotton looks 'very well in seme places, but take it on an average it is not as good in this section this year as it was last. However, we* will not grumble. Our small grain crops have turned out exceed? ingly well. Our com crops look very fine, and if nothing happens to them a heavy yield is expected. The Mountain Springs Debating Society still flourishes. I believe thai Mr. Samuel Mauldin has the honor of exhibiting the first ripe water? melons in this vicinity this season. Hurrah for Sbeppard! He is still my choice for Governor. There has been many a gallon of black buries picked during the last three or four weeks of rainy weather. I tell you there were lots of the things. We knew that we couldn't make them all up into pies, so we commenced canning them up, but the cans soon gava out and now we are mak? ing wine out of them. Told you sometime ago we would have a time. The boys are talking of organizing a base ball club somewhere in the settle? ment. It looks like we are rather late about it, though we are rather doing tbe best we can. We country boys never do play much until we get the crops layed by and tbe turnip patches all sowed. Don't nobody forget about the great "Alliance Liver Pills;" tbey are just as good now as they ever were, and only cost 15 cents a box. The "Alliance Liver Pills" are unsurpassed. Wheu I picked up the People's Advocate of last week the first thing 1 saw was an article headed, "A wail from tbe North? west." I didn't pay much attention to it, but opened tbe paper, read tbe locals, edi? torials, Ac, folded it up and was in tbe act of laying it aside when I noticed it again, "A wail from the Northwest"?"Wm. Hess urges South Carolina Alliancemen not tdvote the Demccrtt?o Ticket" 1 com? menced then and read it through. It was written by a sucker. Yes, and by the way, it was from the sucker State?Illi? nois. He says, "South Carolina Alliance men vote for Cleveland? Ten thousand times no 1" That was getting there, wasn't it? He makes out like an Alli?ricem?u will b* committing a horrible crime if he votes for Cleveland. Why he goes on to say nu Alllanceman Voting for Grove: Clovelacd makes of himself the mug? wumps of mugwumps, forgets his prom? ised fidelity, &ci Ain't 1 glad to know that our gobd South Carolina Alliancemen are not such fools as the Illinois sticker wants them to be? He may make his Illinois brothers believe wh&t he has said abont Grover Cleveland, but he can't make what he calls his South Carolina brothers believe him. No, not a bit of it I have never seen Wm. Hess, nor never had any inclination to want to sec him, but I can assure him that he will have to pipe to some other people if he gets any ! dancing done. Brother farmers, look at him. He has received his pension money, but that doesn't satisfy him. He wants to see us toiling under the force bill, raising cotton at three and four cents a pound, and paying him fourteen dollars a barrel for flour. That's what he wants, but we will see him when he gets it. We will Vote for Grover Cleveland and raise more bread at home. ? Ned Needle. BroTies' Locals. Miss Amanda Yinina- returned to her home in Rutledge, Ga., last Thursday, after a very pleasant stay of three weeks with relatives and friends in this commu? nity. We spent a delightful day last week j with Mr. G. W; Farmer, and were regal 1 ed with the most delioious cider and wa? termelons. Friend "Gad" has the best proBpeot for a crop we have, yet seen. Mr. W. E. Stevenson intends making a lot of brick this summer, having engaged one of the machines used at Fort Hill. Mrs. Fannie Fullenwider returned to her home near Anniston, Alabama, last Monday, after an enjoyable visit to the family of Mr. N. O. Farmer. School has began at Cedar Grove and Smith's Chapel. An article which appeared in the Advo? cate of 11th inst., headed "A Wail from ' the Northwest," addressed to the Editor, and very appropriately signed, fraternal? ly, Wm. Hess, is, we think, the most bit? ter slander of the Democratic party and nominee that we have yet seen, and it confirms our belief that the Advovate is nothing more than a Third Party organ, striving to remain in the great Cleveland and Stevenson column, while it exerts every effort to further the cause ot Third Partyism in South Carolina. Mr. Hess calls upon Allianoamen to refuse support to Cleveland. He could not have, called upon an organization which would more readily make "principle subservient and secondary to party," than the Alliance. It is a political organization and has been since its birth, when fellow-citizens and Democrats were not allowed to attend meetings, even when the government of our country was to be discussed and changed to suit the Alliance. When the "Principles that tho brotherhood pro? claimed to the world, to political parties, that they would stand for in an unbroken column, declaring they would vote for no man nor party who did not adopt them and agree to enact them into laws when these principles were enacted, Democrats and voters, men who had as much right to a voice in this government as those who enacted thorn, were denied entrance with closed doors, and were prevented by the use of countersigns, etc., from taking part in deliberations and enactments which affected their own in? terests as much as those of Alliancemen. Really, is this the "Land of the Free." Then, after having usurped the rights and privileges of so many citizens who were not adjudged eligible to member? ship, a few of that body, not content with doing that, as they thought, small amount of injustice to their fellow-Democrats, organized a ring within this immense ring, alleged- to embrace "Thirty States of the Union," and styled this fraternity "Gideon's Band." A man is sacrificing principle when he so totally disregards all honor and his own interests bo much as to sever himself from the Democratic party and joins the crowd of the discon? tented and affiliates with the Third Party in the hope of enforcing the demands of a secret organization, which promised not to interfere with his politics or his reli? gion. Truly "Hell mil Jubilee." when there is such a state of things in South Carolina "Grover Cleveland, in? deed!" "Wall Street's candidate!" "Alliancemen vote for him ?" "Ten thou? sand times no!" Hess. Editor Advocate, indeed! Third Party candidates! Dem? ocrats vote for him ! Ten thousand times no! Townvllle Locals. Prof. J. W. Gaines, of this place, has re? turned to Williamston, 8. C, to take charge of the Male High School, of which he is Principal. Prof. Rice, the Principal of the Presby? terian School, of this place, has closed his school. The Prof, informs me that he will spend awhile at Highlands, N. C. I still won't vote for a candidate who won't announce in the Intelligencer, and I am not by myself. Mr. Wilton Patterson, liying near here, killed and brought to town a very large rattlesnake the other day. It was about four feet long, measured eight inches around and had a button. Mr. Patterson was walking along a path with his cow when suddenly he saw the snake making a strike at him, and, but for his alertness, he would surely have been bitten by the reptile. J. R. and W. N. Bruce start to the mountains of North Carolina in a few days. Miss Dora Pritohard, of Adairsville, Ga., is spending awhile with her cousin, Miss Eliza Gantt Mr. Pat. Dickson, the Devil of the Oconee News, attended Church here Sun? day. Rev. J. R. Earle preached a fine mis? sionary sermon here Sunday, from the text, "Go teach-all nations." Mr. Oalhonn Harris, of the city of An? derson, is visiting his parents at this place. Mr. Bennett Horton, of Pendleton, was over Sunday trying to steal the heart of one of our fair maidens. Miss Kate Holle man, of Walhalla, S. C, attended our Church Sunday. Mr. Editor, I see you did not notice that I attended the Sunday School Institute, and I am determined that the people shall know it Oli? Rosin De Bow. Lebanon Items. At our last Conference the Pastor call? ed for the Peace of the Church, and ap? pointed a Committee. The Church then elected delegates to the Union and to the Association, and we will have another election in October for Pastor. We will get to vote right often in this community, and I think many of us will vote for Sheppard, Orr and Cleveland at the proper time. Rev. W. B. Hawkins and Mr. Jeptha Harper swapped horses, and I think both parties are bettor suited and satisfied. We are still having rain and lots of grass, yet the crops ore fine, and the farmers are doing all they can to work out the grass and lay by in good order. Mr. Editor, I agree with tho Eureka correspondent, yet we must give the boys a chance. What is the difference in a boy hurrahing for his best girl or a man hurrahing for a man that publicly says he had rather go to-with his follow? ers than to Heaven with his opponents ? How a Preacher can vote for such a man and then advise his hearers against evil is a mystery to me. Oh! that God may direct them in the way they should go. Mr. Editor, I take you paper and the Advocate, and I notice announcements as candidates in the latter which do not ap? pear in yours. It may be they think they are on the safe side. If so, all right People will vote as thoy think best at the proper time. Well, Mr. Editor, my watermelons are doing well, and I will send you one when ripe.

SVe had a very interesting meeting at Lebanon on last Sabbath afternoon. Rev. O. L. Martin and Mr. C. Wardlaw, of An? derson, honored us with their presence, and told us a great deal about missions.

D. W. Hiott, C. E. Horton, Jl C. Boozrr. Committee. Obltnary. One by one they cross the river which separates this world from vast eternity, and the crossing always sends its thrill of 1 sorrow and sadness through tbe hearts of I loved ones who are left behind. This time it is Robert Ward He win, who died the 17th day of June, 1892, at Harrison, Texas, of typhoid fever. He was born in Anderson County, on Savan? nah River May 1, 1859, the only son of i Press till and Emily Hewin. His father died in early life during the late war in Virginia, and his mother was subsequent? ly married to Mr. E. T. Leavell, of Belton. In 1870 the family removed from Ander? son to Pickens County, and settled where tbe town of Central has since been located. Ten years later, in the fall of 1880, Ward, with other young men, went West, and has ever since lived in Texas, where he was happily married to Miss Ida Lump kin, formerly of Georgia. Early in life he grofeaaed conversion and united with tbe Isplist Chnrch at Central, and those who kne n him best haye reason to believe that be is now at rest. Sorrow for the loss of such a promising J'oung man, a friend and brother, so early u life, and sympathy for the bereaved wife and mother, mingle in our hearts. But let this thought comfort us all; our loss is hia eternal, gain. As the shad? ows of the night yield to the first flush of j the dawn of the new day, in like manner let us hope that as be relaxed his hold upon tbe frail threads of life tbe dark shadow that was hovering so heavily over him was lifted and driven away by tbe dawn of a nsw, bright, eternal Sabbath day, where his disembodied spirit, unencum? bered with flesh and blood, holds sweet communion with its blessed Redeemer. ?
