Hartwell (Ga ) Sun: "Mr. Oba 8eigler, a prosperous and enterprising farmer of this County, died at bis residence on Sunday, October 6:h, 1895, from paralysis. He was about forty years of age, and was born in Anderson County, S. C ; removed to Hart County about three years ago. He was a consistent member of Grove Baptist Church and was burled at Cross Roads cemetery on Tuesday following his death. The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. T. A. Thornton to a large and sympathetic congregation. Mr. Seigler was a noble, Christian gentleman, and a valued citizen. He leaves a wife and fonr daughters and a widowed mother to mourn bis depar? ture." Since the death of Postmaster Barr there has been considerable speculation as to who would be bis successor. It was gen? erally known tbat there were several ap? plicants for (be position, among whom was Col. M. P. Tribble, who had been en? dorsed by a number of leading and influ? ential Democrats of the State On Monday President Cleveland returned to Washing? ton, and tbat day named Col. Tribble as Anderson's next Postmaster. The appoint? ment is a good one, and gives general nat isfaction to our people. Tbe Colonel is well known and is a straight Cleveland Democrat. Accept our congratulations, Colonel. Mr. Ben Fant will continue to bold bis position as assistant postmaster. Mr. Ed ward Holmes died suddenly at the home of bin mother in Pendleton last Monday morning of heart failure, aged about 40 years. On Tuesday bis remains were interred in tbe Episcopal Churchyard at Pendleton, Rev. O. T. Porcher conduct? ing tbe funeral services. Mr. Holme? was tbe second son of the late John H. Holmes, of Charleston, at which place he was born and spent tbe greater portion of his life. He was a member of the cotton exchange there for a number of years, and then moved to New Orleans, where he was en gaged in the cotton bualnef o for several years. Recently he has been buying cot? ton for tbe Ne wry Manufacturing Com? pany. He was a genial, olever gentleman, and was highly esteemed by his friends and acquaintances. The editor of the Greenville Newa, under date of October 18th, sends tbe following telegram to bis paper from Columla: "A delegation of Anderson County men, con? sisting of Geo W. Sullivan, Hugh M. Prince, Geo. W. Anderson and M. A. Ma haffey, is here in the interest of the new county of Williamnton. It consists of Brushy Creek, Williamston, Bfllton, Honea Path and part of Garvin and Hope well Townships of Anderson, and tbe whole of Dunkin, Oak Lawn and Grove, and part of Fairview Townships, in Green? ville. The new countv includes both Piedmont and Pelzer. It will run to the Abbeville and Laurena lines. The dele? gates are very much in earnest; they have a large map and are at work among the delegates. Tbe new county will have $?!, 013 000 taxable property, 400} square miles and 34,000 people." On Sunday evening at 8 30 o'clock a t wo room cottage and the six-room dwelling of David Dooley, on East Franklin street, were burned. The fire started in the cottage, which was very near the larger dwelling, and the flames had almost enveloped it before the fire was discovered. Services were going on at tbe Churches and when tbe alarm sounded tbe congregations rushed out hurriedly, every person think? ing it was his or her home on fire. Tbe firemen were soon on band, but they could not save either building or any of the con? tents, for tbe fire bad got too great a start. Tbe loss amounts to abont $2,000, on which there was $1,100 insurance. Dooley is one of Anderson's most worthy'and in? dustrious negroes, and the loss falls heavy on him. All of his family were at Churoh when the fire broke out, and, as there bad been no fire in the cottage, it is not known how it originated.

The private ear of tbe latter was tendered tbe groom, and shortly after tbe marriage heand bis lovely bride board ed it and came to Anderson, where they remained until Sunday, when they went to Atlanta to spend a few days ? t the Exposition. From Atlanta they will re? turn to Washington. Mr. Mauldin is a most excellent young man, and has many friends in Anderson, whom we Join in ex? tending congratulations and wishing be and biB oharming bride all the happiness and prosperity attainable in this life. Sells Brothers Circus which exhibited here last Thursday was one of the finest shows we have ever seen. Tbe collection of animals, birds and other curiosities of tbe animal kingdom, was exceedingly fine. The pair of Royal Bengal Tigers were in? deed "Royal," while several specimens of lion, together with many of the smaller Carnivora, went to make up an excellent menagerie. The ring performances were specially good, tbe most attractive features being tbe high Jumps, and other acrobatic performances, by both male and female actors. The races were unusually attrac? tive, and the riding first class. In this connection we may say the riding of tbe Texas Cow boy, In bis various feats of daring horsemanship, was very taking. The performing seals and dogs attraoted much attention. A very unusual feature was a pair of bippotaraiis, being probably the first ever seen here. The crowd in at? tendance at tbe day performances was said by one of tbe proprietors to be at least 12.000. There was at least 15,000 people in town during the day, and not a single drunk or arrest. This was certainly a re? markable record. Tbe dispensary was closed, and, of course, maoh of the good i order was due to tbe absenoe of whiskey. We understand that Mr. Sell says it was : tbe most orderly and the largest crowd he ever bad, espeoially in the South. This ! speaks well for the momls of our people. It also shows tbat they uro In a good con* I dition financially. I I Mr. A. M Baker, representing the Com? mercial Building and Loan Association, of Richmond, Ya., is spending a few days in the city in the Interest of bis Association, which is one of the beat and Bafest now in existence in the United States. Mr. Baker secured a number of subscribers in this city to the stock of the Association. A meeting of Sons of Confederate Veter? ans was held in the Conrt House last Monday, with Mr. J. C. Watkins in the chair. The Committee that was appointed at the meeting a few weekB ago to draft a constitution and by-laws submitted its report, which was adopted after a few slight changes. The 10th of May (Memo? rial Day) was selected as the time for the annual meeting of the Camp, whiob will be known as Camp W. W. Humphreys, No. ?, 8ons of Confederate Veterans. It was deoided to hold three regular meetings a year?the second Tuesdays of February, August and November. The next meet? ing will be held on Saturday, November 2nd, at 1 o'clock p. m , when the Camp will be permanently organized by the election of officers. All the sons of Con? federate veterans are invited to attend the meeting and join the Camp, which la the I second one organized in this State. The ] admission fee is only one dollar and the annual dues fifty cents. On Tuesday at 11 o'clock the Anderson MattresB Factory, on East Benson street, was consumed by fire, together with a small house in the rear and the stable of Mr. R. L. Keys on the west side. All the buildings were wooden structures and burned rapidly. A bale of cotton bad just been opened in the factory. The backer machine was running In the same room, and one of the employees says a match ignited in the machine and in a second the cotton was ablaze. The whole intorior was soon covered with the flames, and for awhile it seemed that it would be impossible to keep the fire from spread? ing to the adjacent buildings on both sides of the street, but the brave and zealous firemen of the city were at the Boene promptly and soon bad the flames oonquered. The dwellings of Mr. R. L. Keys, Mrs. VanWyck, and the warehouse and sales stables of Bleckley <fc Fretwell were very close to the factory and It took bard work to prevent them from igniting. The factory loss is about $600, with no insurance. Mr. Keys bad ?200 insurance on his stables. Anderson is proud of her firemen and fire department. On this occasion no paid department in any city could have done better work. The Mat? tress Factory will begin work immedi? ately in the Welch building, on Depot street. Anderson County is called upon to mourn the loss of another excellent and worthy citizen in the death of Mr. Samuel A. Dean, who died suddenly at his home near Deans last Wednesday evening. He bad been in feeble health for several months and often remarked that he ex Eected to die suddenly, and for this reason ad not left bis home in a year or more. On the evening of his death bis family were away from borne, and he ate bis supper quite early. After leaving the dining-room he walked about the house for some time and finally entered bis room. Directly the cook, who was still in tbe dining-room, beard a noise in the room as if some one had fallen to the floor, and. after waiting awhile, went to tbe room and found him lying on the floor. She imme? diately summoned some of the tenants on the plantation and a messenger was sent for the family and a physician, but when they arrived be was dead. Heart disease was tbe cause. Mr. Daan was in the 73rd year of his age. and was born, reared and bad always lived in the neighborhood where he died. He was a eon of Thos. Dean, and, like his father, bad tbe confi? dence and good will of all wbo knew him. He was a consistent member of tbe Bap? tist Church, and a model citizen in every relation of life. He was industrious and frugal, and by bis superior judgment bad managed to accumulate a good property. He was very popular among his neigh- j bors, and always ready to assist the no fortunate and needy. He will be missed in bis neighborhood, where his memory will long be oberished. Five sons and i two daughters survive bim, bis wife hav? ing preceded him to the grave about two yeers ago. On Friday morning tbe re mains were interred at Cross Roads Church, Rev. T H Garrett conducting tbe funeral services in tbe presence of a large concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives. The Graded School. Editor Intelligencer: If you have space please allow me a word about ex? aminations for places in tbe Graded School. The examinations that I am now hold? ing on Saturdays at Miss Hubdard's school building are held in accordance with a regulation of tbe Board of Trustees, which makes it my duty to locate every pupil who applies for admission to the school, and which provides that I shall hold an examination for this purpose before tbe opening of tbe session. The object of this regulation is to avoid delay in beginning regular work. I have never lost more than one day in getting regularly to work. Tbis is impos? sible unless examination and location is previously done. It is especially Impor? tant this year that all work preliminary to tbe regular work of teaching should be dorle before the school opens, because tbe sesMon will necessarily be short at best. Besides, if this examination is held some time before school opens, pupila who are only slightly behind a certain grade will have time to make up the deficiency. So far very few pupils have come to bo examined. Not half as many as are ex? pected. I suppose thin ia either because patrons did not know of tbe examination or did not understand its significance. No pupil will be admitted to the school unless I have examined him. I hope I shall not be obliged to lose a week for this work after school opens. There Is no advantage in delay. United effort is necessary to the success of tbe school. So that I trust patrons will send pupils to be examined promptly. Of course, they cannot tell exactly what grade to send them to be examined for, but tbey can approximate it. Next Saturday, at 9 o'clock, I wish applicants for 6th grade. If there are others for 7th, 8th and 9th they may come also. Respectfully, W. F. Mokcbief, Snpt. ? According to United States Engineer Quinn the gu If coast Is gralually sinki ng, Mothers In Trouble.
