12uh- After storms about those dates
co der opto about 17th. Storms of rain,
th'jnder, sleet and snow from l?tb to 19tb.
A severe cold wave will oome behind
these storms. Reactionary temperature
and storms will touch tbe 23rd and 24th,
followed by returning oold, until tbe last
day of tbe month, at which time rising
temperature and coming storms will be
the order. Don't forget or neglect the
poor dumb creatures that depend upon
yon for food and shelter. Their suffering
will be your loss."

Tbe Central correspondent of tbe Easley
Democrat, of last week, says: "One of the
saddest accidents occurred at Spartanburg
Junction last Saturday morning it has
ever become our duty to ohroniole, Mr.
Cephas J. Gnyton. a freight train con?
ductor, who resided at this place, while
switching a car was run over and his right
leg crushed near to his body, eo that am?
putation was necessary, which was per?
formed by Dre. Doyle, Dean and Evans,
at Spartanburg, but Mr. Gnyton could not
survive the operation, tbe shock being eo
great that be died at half past 7 o'clock on
Saturday evening, and bis remains were
brought to this place to tbe residence of
bis brother-in-law, Mr. Frank A. Mo
Corkle, where he made his borne. Tbey
were taken from this place to the borne of
his aged mother on Sunday, accompanied
by a host of friends. Tbe bnrial took
place at 2 o'clock on Monday evening,
after appropriate and impressive funeral
Boryices, conducted by the Rev. Mr. Haw?
kins. Tbe remains were taken in charge
by the Order of Railway Conductors, of
which be was a member, and were burled
with tbe honors of tbat body in tbe ceme?
tery at Hopewell Church, in Anderson .
Coonty. Mr. Guy ton belonged to one of
the best families in Anderson County, and
by bis polite manners, amiable disposi?
tion, and strict attendance to duty bad en?
deared himself to his brother conductors
and friends with whom be was associated,
and had won for himself an enviable rep?
utation on the R. & D. railroad, which is
shown by tbe caps being draped in mourn?
ing, and tbe high regard of tbe 0. R C."
Joe Lewis, the negro convict who es?
caped from the Neal farm two weeks ago,
was captured near Honea Path last
Thursday sight, and is now in Jail.
When he escaped Joe took with him a
Winchester rifle and a pistol, with car?
tridges for each, and determined to shoot
the first man who attempted to arrest him.
On Thursday afternoon Sheriff Gaines re?
ceived a telegram stating tbat Oliver Rags
dule, Tom Fioklin and a negro, Grant
Watson, bad located Joe and, in attempt?
ing to arrest him, all three of them had
been wounded. Tbe Sheriff at once sum?
moned a posse and went down there.
During the nigbt, however, a negro, Henry
?Lewis, found Joe and told him that a large
number of white men were after hlra and
that they would be sure to kill him, and
that be had better get away from there. It
was after dark. Joe agreed to go. Henry
advised hirn that tbe best way to dodge
tbe crowd would be for him to go toward
bis house some mile and a half away.
After Joeleft Henry followed and found
bim where he had lost bis way. While
they were out tbe Sheriff and bis posse
passed near by and Joe was in tbe act of
shooting one of tbe men but Henry told
him not to shoot for they would both be
killed if he did. Henry proposed to carry
Joe on his shoulder, which he did for
about a mile towards his house. After
reaching Henry's house, he proposed to
Joe to let him handle his gun, so that be
might learn how to use it, as it might be
necessary if they were attacked for him to
help shoot. Joe readily agreed. After
handling the gun awhile, Henry drew tbe
bead on Joe and ordered him to surrender,
and after taking bis pistol from him, he
marched him over to Ben. Cobb's, a white
man, on whose land Henry lives. There
he waa kept until Friday morning, when
be was turned over to the Sheriff. There
was a good deal of feeling against the ne?
gro on account of his having shot tbe men
mentioned above, and after Sheriff Oaines
had started off with the prisoner an attempt
was made to take him and, it is supposed,
lynch him, but the Sheriff showed the
crowd that he was determined to protect
the prisoner at all hazards and he tutceed
ed in landing the prisoner safely in Jail.
Messrs. Itagsdale and Ficklin were only
slightly wounded by the convict, but
Grant Watson was shot' throngh the
breast, and his death is expected at any
time.
AndersonviUe Items.
The farmers are badly behind?in fact,
they have done in a manner nothing to
wards preparing for another crop. We
believe the majority will increase the
acreage in cotton instead of decreasing,
and consequently the price will drop
down again.
Mr. J. N. Smith had the misfortune to
lose a fine hog this week. Supposed to
have died from eating cotton seed.
Whooping cough has made its appear?
ance in ibis section.
We see the ferry on Seneca has been
abandoned by the owner, and now why
don't the County Commissioners accept it
instead of opening a new one, as some of
the Fork are petitioning the Commission?
ers to do. We think it would be more
economy to run the old one than to open
several miles of new roads and go to the
expense of getting new vessels for a new
ferry. Economy is tbe motto of tbe peo?
ple; so let it be with our Hon. County
Commissioners.
The snow in this section was about ten
inches deep on a level.
Tbe health of thi* section is very good.
Your correspondent at May field says

Centervillo Items.
The health of this section is very good
at this time.
We want the people to understand that
Centervllle isn't dead yet. Seven thou?
sand bushels of grain were ground at this
mill last year. We still have Mr. John
Campbell in charge of the mills, and be
can't be beat for a miller.
The people of this section are preparing
for another large cotton crop. Look here,
brother farmers, hog.and hominy is what
we need.
Five young mules have been brought
into this section tbe last two weeks, and
we are expecting two more yet.
There is a little girl in this section who

Lebanon Items.
More falling weather! A light snow
foil last Saturday night in this section,
and was followed by a rain, which froze as
fast as it fell. It made tbe small pines
bow under its weight, which was a very
picturesque scenery. The works of nature
will outshine those of art.
More guano was handled last week by
the farmers sf this neighborhood than
ever was known before in so small a time.
The most of them have their full supply

izers from Denver, a small station near
here.

Mr. Jehu Bowen and bis sister. Miss
Anna, were visiting friends and relatives
in this community tbe first part of last
week. They hail from Btorevlllo section,
having moved there from this place sev?
eral years ago. We would be pleased to
have more frequent visits from our es?
teemed friends.
Thos. Welborn & Co. have their mill in
operation now and tbe neighbors will do
well to give tbem a trial.
Our friend, Mr. H. G. Wallace, who left
some time ago for Texas, writes back that
there Is moro cotton to pick yet out there
than is raised altogether out here. They
have more in the fields than we gather.
By that we judge tbat it would consume
about eighteen months a year to gather
the s tap Ig.
Mr. Oliver Casey has his new dwelling

terrible disease Consumption. Ask your?
selves if you can afford for the sake of Hav?
ing 50c. to run the risk aud do nothing for
it. We know from experience that Shiloh's
Cure will cure your cough. It never fails.
This explains why more than a million
bottles were sold the past year. It relieves
croup and whooping cough at once. Moth?
ers, do not be without it. For lame back,
side or chest use Shiloh's Porous Plaster.
