Possessed of n splendid citizenship, tho sons of Anderson never tire of telling of tho glories of their to strangers and wayfaring men. They believe in their town and have abundant faith in its future. No one can bo with them long without feeling this, and one cannot remain in the "Electric City" for any length of time without admiring its push, pluck and progressiveness. For example, last week Anderson had n Gala Week, likewise tho encampment of the Third South Carolina Regiment ovasJLold there at the same time. Tiieae two events combined to carry to An derson large crowds of visitors from all the upcountry and some from oise wlu-n,.

The development of Anderson has been remarkable. The town and county ure alike nourishing. The huida of Anderson are fertile. Tlie publie roads ar? in lino condition, and wo meet here all the conditions of a prosperous community, Thero are cotton mills and oil milis, many diver sified industries, and thu Anderson Water, Light and Power company gen erates 5,000 horse power, enough for the eity, th? cotton mills and the smaller industries of the city, generated niue miles from Anderson nt Portman Shoals in Seneca river. As to popula lation, in 18i>0 it was .'3,018; in 1003 it is 0,000, and including the mill population on tlie outside amounting to 5,400 it gives over 11,000 to mark the onward march of Anderson. "Anderson, it may be added, has an enterprising chamber of commerce. "While Anderson ean claim no col lege, the city schools under Prof. Wal ton aro good. The present enrollment is 1,800 and teachers number 82. "The military ornament of Anderson is Capt. McCully's line company of young men." -?- o ? Old Man Brady Killed at Monea Path. Patrick Brady, known throughout thu Piedmont section ns Old Man H ra dy. the Irish peddler, was killed by a freight train at linnea Path yester day morning at 0 o'clock. He was crossing thu track und wai on his way to the public square from his boarding house, when he was run down and butchered. His body was terribly mangled. When tho train hit him, tho blow was such that tho freight car waa thrown off tho track and while making an investigation a member.of thu crew found tho bloody remains of the ped dler. Brady belonged to that class of wan dering merchants which is rapidly passing away. Ho carno to Greenville years ago, making this his headquar ters, while hu took frequent trips into thu country to soil his wares. He wau pluin, but ho was honest and upright, and he was known by hundreds and hundreds of thu poor people living in Greenville County. Scores had a speaking acquaintance with him! but few know his name-they all spoke of him as Old Man Brady. About 1890 bu came to this city to open a store, and remained in that business for two year.?, when he went back to the road. He settled at Honea Path finally, making that town his headquarters. It is generally believed that Brady had saved'a small fortune. After his body was picked np yesterday morning it was found that hu bad $210.85 con cealed on his porson, and that was really a drop in the bucket of his wealth, if common report is to be ac cepted as true. With the McIntyre brothers, ho made his homo at Honea Path, and they worked together. A freight train was shifting at tho station when Brady reached the track. As the locomotive was reversed, the old man was bit by a freight car, with Bach force, as stated above, that the train waa derailed. According to the Honea Path correspondent of The Greenville News, who reported the ac cident, no blame can be attached to tho train crew. The body was dragged about thirty yards. There were no witnesses, and no ono to warn Brady of his danger.-Greenville News, 18th inst. The deceased was an old Confeder ate Veteran, having served his adopt ed State faithfully through tho Civil War as a member of the Manning GnardB, Hampton Legiou. He was well known throughout this County, and bis many old friends will regret to bear bf his terrible death.
