Prince Hirobumi Ito, former Japa zese president of Korea and probably Japan's foremost statesman, was as kassinated at the Tsaitsagan railway at Harbin, on Tuesday.

City council of Charleston appro priated $800 for the campaign againsi tuberculosis, Tuesday night. On their way from their home it Dallas, Texas, to Thomasville, Ga. and while stopping at New Orleans with their mother and sister, twc boys, Thomas Davidson and hic younger brother John Davidson, left the boarding house at which they were staying and some hours after wards were found drowned.

Visitors con tinue to arrive, and the city is buzz ing with the usual .fun-seekers at this time. The first of the musical program was rendered Tuesday night -to a full attendance. ' The fair will be on inColumbia next week and this means more than mere ly seeing the sights, though there will be many to see. But above all this the Fair primanily means a great gather:ing of friends and the making of more friends. The attendance is not confined to residents of this state alone, but of crowds from sis ter states. If you are -looking for anyone be about Columbia during the Fair and you will be pret,ty sure to find the person for whom you are looking. And the ebildren will be greatly benefited by a trip to Colum bia at this time, for things are .ar ranged in such a way as to be an ed ueation -to the youngster, which will -be so indelibly impressed by its bear ing upon other 'things that the re membrance will stay tong with him. The educational advantages of the Fair are not to be equalled in any other way. Sheriff J. P. Hunter, who has been trying to fm1d the whereabouts of Joe Williams, who escaped from the c.haingang in July 1903, and who was~ 1sentenced for rocking a train, and - for assault and battery with intent to kill, has at last been rewarded with success and the man has been detained at the Ohio penitentiary un der the name of C'harles Davis, await ing execution for murder in the first degree.

Matthew 's German Lutheran c-hurch. g menbers of iii. lorihcoming Mt. -le Kinley expedit ion. Because she would not give up the stage and return to him, William A.

By direction of President Alex. D. Hudson, I am authorized to change the date of the next meeting of the County Farmers' Union from the first Saturday (6th) in November to :the second Saturday (13th) in No vember. The State Fair will be held during the first week in November and for Friday evening of that week President A. J. A. Perritt, of the State Farmers Union, his called an urgent and important meeting of all the county presidents, secretaries and any other members who may wish to attend. This meeting will be held in Columbia. On Saturday, November 6th, President Taft will make an ad dress at the fair grounds. For the reason that our county meeting, in a measure, conflicts with these previous appointments, it is deemed advisable to change the date of our county meeting. Also, I am further directed to an nounce that the subject "Reclama tion of Worn-Out Soils," to be dis cassed by Hon. J. L. Keitt, as at first appointed, it is thought best to take up the subject, "Small Grain" for the November meeting, and use the former subject for the December meeting. The effort is to select sub jects suitable for these seasons and the discussion of the subject, "Small Grain" will be eminently appropriate for November. The appointees for the subject, I "Small Grain" are: R. T. C. Hun ter, B. H. Caldwell, M. Hayne Folk and Jack Sease. The object sought I is that these appointees together with others who may make supplementary remarks on the different subjects I will give their views in the nature of t!heir experiences. No set speeches are contemplated, but just plain, everyday, practical experiences which have been had upon the farms. All concerned will please take no niee oif the above changes and ap pointments and govern themselves .2 accordingly.] The County secretary urges prompt responses from all local secretaries in the matter of dues, county,, state e and national. The state officers are calling loudly .for them. It is hoped that Newberry county members, will not be any less loyal tihan members in other counties. 5. B. 0O'Neall Holloway, County Secretary.
