The Orangeburg correspondent of The State says Orangeburg will be largely represented at the good roads convention t'hat is to be held at the Isle of Palms during July. A most enthusiastic meeting of this kind was held in this city last fall and was largely attended by Representatives from Columbia and Charleston. It has been stated that at the meeting in Charleston there might develop a fight to adopt the old State road as the route to be pursued from Columbia to Orangeburg. Orange burg will fight that proposition. It was the sense of the meeting held at Orangeburg last fall that the route was to pass through this city and that this county could go ahead and build its roads with the assurance of the route. Orangebrg county has gone ahead and built Its road. This road cross es the entire county from the Cal houn county line to the Dorchester line and Ib one of the best stretches of road bed in this state, as motorists have already described it as a dream. Supervisor Felder of this county has concluded arrangements with the supervisor of Aiken County to build a 'thirty-foot road for automo biles from Augusta through to Or angeburg, thus giving Charleston and Augusta an excellent automobile course, via Orangeburg. Work on this road is to begin at once, and when completed the Capital route that courses through that section of the State will be tapped to the great benefit of Orangeburg and Charles ton. A DEADLY STROKE. Lightning Kills Three Women and Wounds Two Others. On last Friday afternoon lightning killed three colored womeD, all sis ters, on the place of Mr. S. E. Owen, of St. Matthews, near Creston, and at the sametime stunned their father and another sister, who later recov ered, though badly burned. The three young women were instantly killed. During a terrific thunder storm, Bill Canady, together with his four daughters, were standing on the front porch of their home when a bolt of lightning struck a sycamore tree near the house, to which was attached a wire, which lead to a post supporting the porch. The lightning traveled along the wire, striking the house, and killed Sue Canady, Philis Canady, Lula Can ady and stunned William Canady, the father, and Mary Canady. Phil is was leaning against the post to which the wire was attached. She was thrown some 15 feet, more or less, in the yard. This was a terrible blow on the father?to lose three daughters one stroke. It was the most destructive bolt of lightning to human life that has visited this county in a great many years. In fact we have never heard of one here to equal it. Death of Mrs. R. M. Moss.

Bowman, June 13?Special: The showery weather of the past few weeks has hampered farm work no little, consequently gnss is ge ting iconsiderable footholds in some fields Ploughs have been going most of the week, but very little work of advantage has been accomplished in the cotton fields. Cotton has im proved some ol late but continued hot sunshine is now needed above ?verything else in order that good cleau cultivation may be given this, the "standby" money crop of the farmer. Corn generally looks well and with continued good seasons promis es a fine yield. "Pegs have been set" by not. a tew for record breaking yield of this important grain crop. Some fields have already been "laid by" with peas up and growing nice ly. A considerable proportion of this crop has been planted at inter vals, with some still being planted and a number of fields show up the corn crop in all stages of growth. Small grain with few exceptions will be quite short in yield, in this section. An occasional field of fairly good oats are to be seen here and there, but the general yield will be short. A tent meeting is in progress here commencing yesterday and is in the charge of Evangelist R. H. Garrett, of Central, S. C. The weather has interferred with the services and the turnout has be.. somewhat slim. I Holiness is the mainspring on which the meeting hinge and the preaching is plain and pointed and the atten tion will no doubt grow day by day. The tent has been pitched on Main street opposite the Bank of Bowman, in the center of the town.

Dr. Carn moved to Shandon near Columbia a few years ago, but decided recently to return to his farm and' take up work in this neighborhood again. His old friends will be glad to greet him at the old stand again. Fruit, including dewberries, huck leberries, plums and early peaches have been more or less abundant this season. The plum crop is the heav iest ever known by this correspon dent, trees breaking down with load ed fruit. Gardens so far are full of choice vegetables in season with promise of a continuation for some time to come, unless adverse weather sets in. lit rained here all day yesterday more or less and last night also and is still raining this a. m., with no holdup in sight. Fertilizers continue to be shipped in here and is being used on the growing crops. Applications of the stuff are being made the second and. in some instances, the third time to much of the crops now growing, some as top dressing and in side ap plications. All that is now bein? used is of a high grade. Experience has proven that applications in this manner has paid handsomely in many instances. Dundee. Announces His Platform.

"I never have any trouble getting things done," said a farmer's Wife locently. "Do tell us how you managed it!" "I do not manage It at all, men don't like to be managed; but Kale is my way: ? I rever sco 1 r,r fin 1 fa-ilt If a thing needs doing and I can not do it, I simply say, 'Husband, I see the spout of the eaves-trough has dropped down, so that the water runs close to the cellar wall. 1? it freezes, don't you suppose it will injure the wall?' Or, 'Husband, when you go to the barn would it be too much trouble to take that pan of potato parings along to the .horses? And I shall need the pan ag-un at noon,' because he might otherwise forget to bring it back. "If I should set out with a high hand to tell what I wanted done, ten chances to one there would be hard fe< lings, and I might not get any thing done, after all. "And then, the tone of the wo man's voice is worth an hour's ar gument. "Then too, the look on one's face counts for more than a little. Smiles go farther than frowns. "The best of it is, you feel so much better about it afterward, your self, if you have been kind to the one you love best. Nothing hurts so much as bitter words." Is there any woman anywhere who does not agree with this? Catarrh Can Quickly Be Cured.
