Local News WEDNESDAY, JULY 26, 1899. A Masonic Day. Last Friday was a notable day in Masonic circles in this County., Hiram Lodge, of this city, had invited the craft of thc whole County to be her guests for the day, and in response to the invitation the spacious Lodge room was well filled with brethren at 9:30 a..m. to witness thc. exemplification ol' the Master Mason's degree, the can didate being Mr. Harry A. Orr. of this city. Kev. By^on Holly, of Greenville, 5astor of the Episcopal Church, who is unior . Grand warden of the Grand Lodge of this State, was present as the guest of the Lodge and conferred the degree, the lecture being delivered by the Worshipful Master of thc Lodge, Mr. Jno. K. Hoed. Owing to the fact that Rev. Mr. Holl.v had to return to his home on the 2:30 train, the address which he had ac cepted the invitation to deliver was . given immediately following the de gree. It was intended that this address should be made at Fretwell's Spring, following the barbecue. Those who were thus deprived of hearing the elo quent divine missed a very instructive and profound disquisition upon some of the beautiful principles ot Masonry as emblematically represented. This address wrs intended for all who were invited to the barbecue, and would have entertained as welbas instructed the audience. At half-past twelve the Masons drove I but to Fretwell's Spring, to which al luring spot they had been preceded by many other guests of the Lodge, both ladies and gentlemen, where a splen didly barbecued dinner was elegantly and tastefully served by the committee who had this important matter in charge. This committee consisted of Messrs. J. B. Watson, U. E. Seybr, G. W. Evans, J. P. Duckett and Duck Bolt. The 'cue was essentially a meat dinner-beef, mutton, pork, kid, chick en-with natural accompaniments, as bread, Irish potatoes, pickles and coffee. * Surely itis'not often that one attends so delightful a 'cue at so convenient and beautiful a place, lt will not soon be forgotten by those who were present. Mr. Holly reached here on the 7 o'clock train Thursday afternoon and was entertained by Jno. K. Hood, Esq. His limited stay was regretted by the Masons, as well as Ids other friends here. Hiram Lodge is iu a thriving condi tion, and lier membership has been in creased by nearly thirty additions in thc past 18 months. Since this auspicious occasion the brethren will sing with added emphasis, "Hail, Masonry Divine !" At the Base Ball Park. The Anderson base ball park was festive yesterday afternoon, in honor of the Union-Anderson battle of the ball. A jammed grand stand witnessed the Blue Ridgers succumb to nine ex-^ ceptional, almost phenomenal Union ists batters as they crashed unmercifur ly straight balls, crooked balls, Chinese puzzle balls, in short, they hit and hit nardin spite of splendid efforts from the local box. The game began with a canter for Anderson, with three scores to ner credit, at the finish of the first inning. In the next inning the home team added another run. Goose eggs inning after inning marked the sad faced Anderson man who held the score card until the eighth dragged around, when the Blue Ridgers spurt ed, and he marked a run. Even thc speedy-twirling ball, shot out of the hands of "Joe," failed to wrest victory from the tenacious Union men. At the close of the ninth round, not a cheer was heard-small boy rooters forgot their horn-not even a smile dared toy with the lips of hundreds of Anderson beauties-the gloom of defeat settled down just as the snn disappeared in sympathetic disappointment. Foll owing is the order the Blue Ridgers lined uo : Byers s. s., Riley 2b., Guy lb., Poole 1. f., Callaham 3b., Eudgens c., Rice c. f., Smith r. f., and Richardson and McCully did the pitch ers' act. ' Lack of space prevents mention of but two of tlie numerous brilliant plays. Hndgens is a little wonder. Ont of four times at the bat, he made three single base-hits and a two bagger: His catching was phenomenal. Riley put in his usual cool-headed star playing. By a difficult, but extremely graceful pick up of a warm grounder, he won an avalanche of applause from the "beauties," cranks and irrepressible small boy rooters. Guy, on. first, did beautiful work. It seems that Manager Mattison ex pected several crackerjack players yes terday, who failed to appear, and it was in this way forced upon him to substi tute others at the last moment. This, in part, is given as the cause of the seventeen to six defeat at the hands of Union yesterday. Though it is admit ted lack of team work at critical points *was mainly responsible for the water loo. Union's team is the strongest in the .State, composed of players from all .parts of South Carolina and two from Tennessee.. Defeat by such a team is aidtsobad. G. C. S. Meeting with Success in his Adopted Home. Thc Denver (Col.) Sunday rust of July 2nd contains, a picture of Judge John M. Wardlaw, a native oi' Ander son County, and a son of Mr. Andrew Wardlaw, formerly of this County but now living in Arkansas. As it always gives us pleasure to note the success bf an old Anderson boy, and knowing that it will be read with interest by his many friends and relatives in this County, we reproduce thc following from the Post: Last week the Supreme Court exam ined a large class ot applicants for ad mission to the bar. Among the candi dates was the County Judge ol San Miguel, of which County Telluride is the official centre. In all the San Juan district this Judge, John M. Wardlaw, is very well known as he was for years in charge of thc Western Union tele graph office at Telluride and later a newspaper man connected with the principal papers of the district, and also the correspondent for Denver and Eastern journals. His ambition was the law, and he studied for the profes sion, so when he ran for the office of County Judge he was not unequipped for the judicial position, though not a member of the bar. After his election he determined to win the name of law yer, although he was already a Judge. That he will receive the sheepskin there is hardly a doubt. Mr. Wardlaw was born in Anderson, S. C., in 1870. He was educated at the Carolina Collegiate Institute of An derson. In 1890 he came to Colorado to take a position with the Western Union Telegraph company at Pueblo. He went to Telluride in 1891 and last Fall he was nominated on the Republi can and Silver Republican tickets for County Judge and elected by a" hand some majority over the Democratic .and Populist fusion candidates. This Spring he was appointed town Clerk of Telluride, which position he holds with his County Judgeship. Corner Dots. Last week the hearts of many were made glad by reason ot* the refreshing rains, which came in copious showers. They did not come a whit too soon, but rather late, yet not too late to do much good toward reviving the thirsty crops. The crops in some portions of the Cor ner are fine indeed. The corn is espe cially promising. Last Thursday night a'party of young people might have been seen on . the lawn in front of the residence of Mr. Ti. S. Sherard indulging themselves in all of the pleasures incident to a lawn party.. On account of the threatening aspect of the weather, the crowd was rather small, yet there were enough to enliven the time, for the hours sped swiftly by, and ere we were aware the clock sounded forth the hour for our departure. To Mr. and Mrs. Sherard are due the thanks of our party for their generous efforts in making the occasion a success. Miss Ellen Sherard, one of our most fascinating young ladies, is away from home visiting friends and relatives in Abbeville. Mr. A. S. Bowie and family have taken a few days off from worry and business cares to indulge in the pleas ures incident to an overland trip through the mountains. They are with a party of several, all of whom expect to be gone about two weeks. Miss Vashti Sherard is away from home. She has gone to visit relatives and friends in different parts ot* Abbe ville County. Miss Louise Ligon, who has been visiting relatives and friends in Troy, Bellevue and other places, has returned home. Mrs. A'. C. Sherard spent a few days last week visiting friends and relatives .in and around Lowndesville. Rev. J. V. Black, pastor of Gen'eros tce Church, has been granted a fur lough bv his people, and has gone to to spend his vacation with friends in Georgia. He will also travel a part of the time. On account of this absence there will be no preaching at Gener ostec until sometime in September. Mr. A. Beaty. Sherard, after a very pleasant visit among his friends and relatives, returned to his adopted home in Columbia last Monday. His many friends regret that he could not stay longer. Mr. Ira Hamilton, one of our most popular young men, spent Sunday with friends at Deaus. Miss Sue Whitefield, a popular and pleasant young lady from Anderson, is spending a few days with her friend. Miss Sallie Sherard. Miss Sumpie Teasley is visiting her grandparents in Hartwell, Ga. Miss Mattie Belle McLeskey is again at home, after a protracted visit among friends and relatives in Georgia and South Carolina. Miss Minnie Wilson, a charming ?oung lady from Anderson, is visiting er cousin, Miss Sarah P. Sherard. Mrs. T. A. Stevenson has been visit ing her brother, Mr. Richard Townsend, near Anderson. Miss Virginia Sherard, one of our lovely young ladies, is visiting her cousins m Lowndesville and Lebanon. Mr. Ernest Wakefield, of Anderson, spent several hours in Iva last Wednes day en route to Anderson from a visit to his home in Antreville. Dr. J. E. Watson and Prof. S. B. Sherard went down to Willington Mon day for the purpose of attending a dance near that place. Mrs. U. E. Seybt, of Anderson, spent a day or two last week Avith Mrs. T. C. Jackson. Mr. T. C. Jackson attended the Ma sons' barbecue given at Fretwell's Spring last Friday. We are glad to say that Mr. Sam Watt, who has been quite sick, is much better, and his friends and relatives entertain strong hopes of his speedy' recovery. The communion meeting at Good Hope will embrace the 2nd Sunday of August. The pastor will be assisted by Rev. Jno. R. Riley, D. D., of Easiey. Preaching to begin on Saturday before at 10 o'clock. DRACO. Trinity Happenings. We have been blessed with a good rain this afternoon much to the delight of all our people. If you want to know who said that they were just goin? with a certain young man to take oil the shine of his new Diiggy just ask one of our little belles. The young people of our community enjoyed a pic nie at Mr. J. J. Moseley's the other Saturday. We had a plenty to eat and all the lemonade we could drink, which was furnished by Mr. A. L. Moseley. Miss Finley and Mr. Clio Moseley are entitled to the honors for the success of the occasion, as they introduced the plan. Three cheers for J. H. Hutchinson for Supervisor. He would make a good one. In company with Mr. L. J. Duck worth, your humble scribe made a fly ing visit to Laurens last Friday, Satur day and Sunday. We had a pleasant ride until 4 o'clock, when we arrived at our friend's home, Mr. Henry Simmons. After a delightful evening we retired for the night to awake in the morning much refreshed. Soon after*an excel lent breakfast, we found ourself on a pleasant walk with a most charming young lady. When dinner was overa crowd of the young people took a pleasant ride over to a neighbor's, Mr. -Brownlee, where we enjoyed an evening of pleasure. Alas, Sunday morning came too quick and ere the clock chimed ten we were bidding our friends adieu and preparing to return. We had a most delightful time; never enjoyed ourselves better in all our life. T?ie only fault wc find with Laurens is her roads. They are just awful, and we think if some of the leading citizens would come up and spend a few hours in Anderson County they surely would make an improvement on their roads. Miss Gussie Wei born has been spend ing the past week with friends and attending the Hopewell meeting. Miss Gussie is one of Lebanon's charming girls, and we hope she enjoyed her stay while visiting down here. Miss Kizzie Lobby, accompanied by her father, came down from Calhoun last Mondav. Miss Kizzie is going to spend awhile with Miss ?May Cartee. We wish them much fun. Mr. Tommie King, the son of Mr. and .Mrs. T. M. King, passed from life unto death on Tuesday morning, July 18th. He had been sick for the past two years, but was improving until Thurs day morning, when he was taken with rheumatism ot* the heart, which brought on his death, lt seems hard to give up the one we loved so well, b?t God knows best, and wc should submit willingly to Him. Tommie was one of these good-hearted, friendly boys, and the community loses one of her noblest young men. Ile was in his 17th year, just budding into manhood, with his hopes bright and a glorious future in front, but, alas ! he is gone where sor rows never come. Our deepest sympa thy goes out for the family, and espe cially for the sister, Miss Corrine, as she longed for the time to come when her brother should come from college with a happy face and bright future. She waited lor the time when she could see her brother in business with success on every side. Boys, suppose we take warning by the death ot this worthy young man and prepare ourselves to meet with him in Glory. May heaven's richest blessing rest upon the family. Belton Items.

How many times have you heard that "our (?in is as good as the Daniel Pratt, be cause we byild one a good deal like it."
