Local News. WEDNESDAY, M AUCH 13, WOl Portman Letter. Andersoniaus may DOW bo happy The big machinoiy has all arrived at th? Portman powur imune. The power bon* here ls the manufaotury for tho e lev-trie ity that freighted on Ita few wiro* throb through every artery of the basins* world of Anderson. From the jwrf house this onorgy ls unwound, or uncoil ed, aa it were, from the great circuit* c speed, re-wound upon the ppind le* o trade at tho substation in Anderson, am in living threads of dre sent thronen th?' fabric of commer?a ani: manufactory throughout the etty and it? environ monta. Nine milos additional wire aro bel ni strung by Mr. Long between Port mai and Anderson by which to convey Ki'K extra horse power. There shall now be? potential of energy ti the HUI mut o? i,'>'?>:) horsepower, which,escaping its narrow bounds here, shall in ita own domain ol usefulness wind, grind, whirl and weave for tho finance of tho rich and tho comfort of the poor. Capital might well become morecapa tallstlc by tho aid of thia Bllbtlo bery stead. $15.00 iocurea tho rental ol ono horne power for a year. How littlo the hitch-strung noble .minmi oats, how easi ly groomed ?ndstabled! Tho uninitia ted cannot tell the momentum of one borge as motive powor in a mill or print ing press, but the farmer can tell itt worth on bis ono borso crop. He would bo glad to rout several such horses for fifteen dollars por year eaeb, without food, raiment, stabling or care. There are now four manufacturing ma chines at the power house. Tho latent or present arrival is a third lareer in caps city than those previous, and in of a con struction to require lean room. A now machina arrived last year of 1,333 home power, two more previous, to this of o?d each, so it will ba soon that the electric compauy ls growing in power, Ander son growing in population, and tho pop ulance in pi asperity and comfort. Tho correspondeut for the INTKLMOKNCKII WHS conducted by Mr. Frank Mayos through the avenue of wheels and veloc ity. Thia was a dlspenaatlon ol* special grace to tho INTKI.I.I<M:NCKU'M scribe, as all outsiders aro barred, and tho engines of electric jowar aro as Mount .Sinai, bounded around, and noun daro touch them lost they die. Tho tremendous rev olution of those swift wbrels, their mo mentous moaning cf lifo or death ! tho gazer is 1 ?st lo .sublimity and cares littlo to como down from tho mount of con templation to ask a question; but "how aro tl ifs.< wheels now mak Ingoiectrioitj ?" H^kod tim Idle questioner, who, lilt*' ti child, nsk.4 hilo questions. Mr. Mayes, with the pilieticu ol' a gen tlenmi, explained: "You seo this loather bund connecting tho wheel with this.'' - t?o machino over here. Tho small ma chine is called au excitor; it weighs about 2,000 pounds, Is charged with elset rii!lty7 ifs thu wheel is sot in motion by wat? r power the velocity7 is carried to tim ?>x eiter. All life is activity, the activity power. Electricity accumulates nt n stupendous rate by the activity received from the wheoh Each wheel has lis own oxclter." "Yes," Haid tho enlightened questioner, "but what becomes of the electricity In the exciter when the speed In the wheel runs down? If activity is lifo whore is tho electricity in this dead machino after the wheels stop?" "O, the exciter always i enerves a res! . due," said Mr. Mayes, "just enough to start, alter too whool begins." "But," said tho Interviewer, with the same bright idea that inspires a chil'l when bo asks what the moon ls made of "but where does it get tho electricity Ural? Where does it get tho 'residue ?' J' ' The exciter ls charged when it romes here," said Mr. Mayes. The questioner did not ask where the charges came from, or who made them, the limit of under standing bad been reached, and with the air of one whose comprehension was now surfeited turned a listless giunco around to the opposite wall, and enid, "What are those clock-looking thin.?r>?" "O, those are registers," said Mr Mayon, "two registers for each machine, tu show where the current is grounded; that is. io show where between tels and Anderson tba current ls lost, or drops by induction. Four for the lines, to indicate wluru their ourront is lost by breakage or other accident. These volt meters register tho pressure of powor on tho machines from the gonorators. We re cord every hour tho amount of current in transit; tho report is seut Into Dr. Orr's oflloo in Anderron." "Of course your machines aro shut donn on Sundays?" asked tho interview er. "Oin mnohlno is k*>pt alwava running, bnt at 6:30, Sunday evenings, wu start tho ttiacbiuery lor tbo Anderson mills. This machine over at th* end, wo start every evening between 0 and <>:'?Q for lighting purposes." "Where do tho wlrcn touch tho machine lo become charged?" a-ked theqnest oner with too persistence of one of "Haler.-, Babies. ' "O, thev don't touch," said Mr. Mayon, blandly ; "they don't touch nt all; "tho wires outer what is called tho tm?gnetln field about i of an inch (rom tim machin ery and aro Incited by magnetic attrac tion." Mr. Mns'cs waa extremely obliging and off.red nu v information lo the readers ?>i tho IM'EI.T.IUENCKR which tho reporter could con?,ey; but apace, Uko compte beu*t< n, ia limited. Tho gentlemen as sisting Mr. Mayes at tho power house ar? Messrs. W. D. (ieorgo, lt. ?. Cannon, .T. lt. Nowoll aud F. C. G ona I ns, each ol whom alternates with tho other for day and night Borvicos. An appreciative entertainment wa* given the evening of tho Sih inst, by th?? young gentlemen of tho poner bouse. Mr. and Mrs. Buoby gave tho "freedom of the house" to the young poople, and muslo and dancing for a while shook oil the droway lethargy of monotony. Every member presont was a staunch supporter of religious denominational principles, but each realizer! that activity and tho hu. m le? a playfulness of child I hood are not condemnatory virtues. Messrs. Joe and Sam Williams, of Port man supplied musio that would inspire even the feet of the aged to ibo supple ness of youth. Pr?tent were the Portman guests Messrs. Lo Og, Mu OH, Cannon, Georse Goggle*, Nowell, and W. p. Lee, of Dr. Orr's official force, Mrs. W. F. I>e, Mr D. 8. Burton, to.oman for Mr. Tenny Mr?. D. 8/Barton. Messrs. E*rly.

It was amusing when tho boxes wore sold to eoe the gon tlemen trying to (iud out which box be longed to his "beat girl." Mr. D. An derson was the Crier and provod to bo tho eo,uul of .loo MctJeo, of your eity. We would advise any one having prop erty fo sell to call on Mr. DeWitt Ander son. At 10 o'clock the dining room door was opened and guests began tiling into supper, and it was a sight to behold the tabl?n, which were loaded with delicious O/ttabltH-cakoH, all sorts of sandwiches, ham, chicken, pickles, custards, A.c., all served with hot e ll'-jo. Wo want to Kay tbat Mina Alice Duckworth and Misse* Ada and Ida Rogers will be long remem bered for giving us this entertainment, for wo certainly onj ?yell ourselves. After supper wo returned to the parlor and the young gentM were invited into a room lo themselves.

Mrs. Richardson was raised in this community und lived here until about 15 or 20 years ago, when she moved to Hartwell. She has many friends on this side who will regret to hear of ber death. She waa n woman of many no "ole traits of character. Tho writer re members ber with a great deal of pleas ure tts her toucher, and abe was always gentle and kind to her pupils, she was a member of the Hartwell Baptist Church. She leaves a devoted hus band, un adopted daughter, Mrs. Paul Burns, and many relatives nnd friends to mourn her loss. Her body was laid to rest in the Hartwell Cemetery, by the side of her only son who preceded her to tho grave. Tho funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. ll. W. Collier. Wm. Juett, infant son of B. Garrison Strickland and Mrs. Knte Strickland, died Feb. 27th, 1901, at Eagle Grove, Un. lt had been sick for some days but they did not think it dangerous. On the morning of the27th they got up, nto breakfast, and the father went, to the bed to seo if tbo baby had waked up, and its spirit had gone io dwell with tho nngels. Its body was laid to ..est in tho Cemetery at Bio Church, funeral services being conducted by Bcv. J. B. Snylors. Mr. A. F. Shearer is very sick with grip. Mr. J. II.

His memory will bo cher ished bj' every one who knew him. Wo extend our sincerest sympathies to the sorrowing family. Wo gladly welcome Mr. Jones McGee and wife to our neighborhood. Mr. McGee is n hustling young farmer find is quite an addition to our community. Our vicinity is nlllicted with grippe and colds of a less violent mittlre. Last Sunday was so unlikely there was no preaching. 1 Our farmers aro progressing well i with their work. Guano is being put ' in the ground in a hurry. The farmer should bo careful that he don't make n fool of himself in planting an over 1 whelming cotton clop. If there ever ' was a time not to do a thing like that, now is the time.

Tho nearer spring comes the happier wo get. Tho fruit trees are beginning to show u little sign of a good fruit crop this year. Mrs. Will Thompson, we are sorry to hear, is very ill with pneumonia. Dr. WillicS. Hutchison is waiting on her. We again, Mr. Editor, have to say something to our boys about cursing in tim presence of ladies. It don't sound very nice, and especially on tho public highway, where everybody can hear them. On first Saturday night there wa? a music entertainment at Mr. Lawrence Thompson1?, given in honor of Miss Eva Gentry, of the Concord section. It was much enjoyed by tho large crowd in attendance. Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, with their lovely daughter, knows how to entertain their guests. Mr. .John A.

Karin work has been progressing nicely lor tho past three weeks, conse il neut ly a great many of our farmers have begun putting in guano, and sumo arti now thinking of planting corn. Nearly all of tho fertilizer that has been hauled to this section of tho county caine from tho Anderson Fer tilizer Factory. Mrs. Wm. El rod is very sick with tho grip, ns is also Mrs. .1. F. Hackett. Their many friends wish them a speedy recovery. It seems that nt a certain school near Andeison, on thu Trinity r?v*d, the children aro not only learning ' tho benefit and importance of the use of the English language but are also growing proficient in I ho art of throw ing rocks and using till hy language, na was evidenced by a gnni loman ono day last week while passing ulong the road on his way homo from thu city. Ile chanced to bo passing tho school house nt noon recess und was followed be tween a quarter and a half ti mile by a howling set of school boys, yelling, cursing and t browing-rocks liken pack of Comanche indians. Such conduct ns that is unbecoming nuda disgrace to any community. Mr. Harrison Hacket is visiting in Uconco County nt present. Mr. Wm. Harper und wife, of Six Mile, Picketts Co., visited relative.'! nt this place a few days ugo. Ono of tho most interesting meetings that we ever had tho jileas ire of at tending, was that of tho Iola Debating Society last Saturday night. Tho sub ject discussed was, ''Resolved, That emancipation lins not been a benetit to the negro." Each side did all that they could to win tho decision in their favor, but both could not win, conse quently tho judges decided in favor of tho negative. Both ladies and gentle men were invited toc?me out and hear the speakers. Tho latest in tho way of atcaling is that of Mr. J. H. Horton. He recently had about one hundred bundles of fod der stolen from him. The study of tho Sunday School lessons for the coming quarter and the addresses given during the Institute by the pastor. Kev. H.
