The ladies took in a little over 5200 at "The Feast of the Five Tables," and could have taken in much more, as everything was sold long before the time limit arrived and other crowds were still hungry for some of the nice things. The Newberry Cotton mills are installing four new spinning frames, which they purchased from the SacoLowell shops. They are also installing water and electric lights !n all the village houses and constructing cement sidewalks. The school teachers having charge of thA children in the beautiful and expressive celebration last Friday night had the ju9t cause to wear the smiles which wreathed their happy faces to the pleasure of the immense gathering of people. For the encouragement of some Newberry people out of a job we pick the following from the Pickens Senti nel: "We see by the papers that a man in Georgia is raising pole cats for their furs. He ought to be able to I get quite a few scents oil the busi-1 I ness." | A goodly number of Newberry peo-| pie interested in textile products will: , attend the meeting of the Southern Tex ' 'tile association which meets in Columbia next Friday and Saturday.

He { has lately put a bridge over the creek in (Vincent street and another in Adline street, finished cement curbing one block in Calhoun street, made the excavation tor the creamery at j the power house, and is ,now working I on the cement curbing for a blocK in ' Johnstone street. I i I The Pickens Sentinel speaks the truth when it says that a glance at the I latest fashion sheets wfll prove the i assertion that the^women are outstripping the men, although it puzzles us to know what it means by saying that the people of Newberry county! are not worried about the high price of shoes as few people here wear them. Newberry is being enlarged on the map. The Demorest Stock company are storing their show fixings here for the winter and the members of j the company will return to their re! snective homes.

Xewberry Teacher Complimented 'Miss Corrie Lei Havird is the reci' pient of a neat compliment through a' letter to Mrs. Helen 0. Ray of the Newberry Buisness school. Miss Hav-j ird, who is now a member of the fac-1 ultV/Of the Speers Street school, was | a former student under Mrs. Ray. The i letter is from Jno. G. Steele, manager j of the New York office of the A. N. j | Palmer Co., practical penmanship pub- j XlCa/LlUIlS, ana ui spcV'imcua from Miss Havird, which were submitted' by Mrs. Ray. Parts of the letter are as follows: "We are delighted with the improvement that this teacher lias made. Mr. Palmer commented very favorably on. this, and desires to keep the specimens . for engraving purposes. Undoubtedly, we will publish this in one of our j magazines within the near future. I "I hope that this teacher will now j write the examination necessary for; the Teachers' Certificate. I feel sure that this teacher will be successful, in obtaining a teacher's certificate,' and congratulate her on the splendid! : style tliat she has acquired.'7 i ' This is indeed a high compliment j from a competent source and it worthily bestowed. It is not only compli-| mentary to the young lady herself, but also to Mrs. Ray, who conducts the business school here. Mrs. Ray has sent out a good many excellentstenographers and other business graduates who have secured fine posi- i tions. We have seen some firstclass' specimens of handwriting besides j those above mentioned, coming from' this school. Mrs. Ray is doing a good work for 'Newberry and her efforts 1 should be appreciated by the entire i county. There is no excuse for send- j j ins; our young people off to other business schools when we have one right here in the city which can and does accomplish the same purpose. THE SANDMAN WEDDING When the Sandman married the Lady o' Dreams, There was joy in Shut-Eye Town, And the children forgave him with one accord For closing th.eir eyelids down. i The bride wore a necklace of shining i stars And a wonderful white cloud gown; And everybody was asked to come Who lived in Shut-Eye Town. . i I 11 She came down the aisle of After-' awhile In the beautiful temple of night, Garlands of poppies were everywhere, I j And the moon was the only light | I | The service was..sung by the mothers; choir: The rrmsir. was sweet and low: The organ notes were the sound that floats Wlhen the wind in the tree-tops blow. ; i So all the children of Shut-Eye Town , t Will'welcome the Sandman now; They know he will bring the Lady o' i Dreams, For they witnessed his marriage vow. ?Mabel Cleland.

Soon thereafter Sheriff Blease heard of the crime, and; he and Deputy Taylor went immediately to the home of the father of Hearst, Rev. Hiram Hearst, where Hiram, Jr., was found and arrested by these three officers and taken to jail, twenty min-i ; utes after the committal of the crime, j ! The woman was cut in three gashes on the neck, which, however, were not serious. She was also, shot with! a 32 cheap pistol four times, one balT" entering her shoulder, two in her neck and one in the back of her head. One! of the balls went through the centre; of her neck at the throat, penetrating to the spinal cord, wlr.ch paralyzed; iher entire body, she being unable to j move any part except her head.

Feast of the Five Tables. The old court house must have rub-! bed its eyes in astonishment as it wakened from a long sleep to find itself, on last Friday night, the center and background of a community j celebration which will long be remembered in .Newberry. The parent-teachers association of the Boundary street and Speers street' schools held a feast to raise money a ? ? 11 f +V?/\ Anlfi J LOT many SlUciii unn uiai tuc ovuvuis : need, and this feast .was attended by j nearly all the men and women and children in Newberry. Happy for the success of the entertainment, the ladies had selected the night on which the loyal citizens of Newberry wanted to celebrate the .Democratic victory which gives us j Woodrow Wilson for president. - ' After eating a fine dinner the crowd gathered on the square in front of the court house. The bands began to play,1 and several hundred school children,1, led by the teachers, marched up and! down and aronnd the square. At nine' - ' "* - - *AlL X J O'CIOCK tne men wun wrcaugms u^uu flags fell in line and headed by ai mounted escort, marched through the principal strets of the city. The success of the entertainment' was due first to the energy and enthusiasm of the women who gave their j time and strength freely, decorating j the hall, making the good things to; eat, and then serving them; next to' the merchants, who when solicited, I save more than they were asked for! and then came and helped to eat the i things they had given. Of great help, too, were the city and county officials, who cleaned up and lighted the hall. The victrola, loaned by one of the merchants of the city, added much to. the pleasure of the evening. The old courthouse served its purpose well, and ought to be used again) soon. Any one looking out over the crowd j last Friday night and seeing how much' every one was enjoying himself could j not fail to realize how good a thing it is for young and old of a communi-i ty to get together and have some healthy fun. The Real Reason.?Three New York1 lawyers were having an outing in the Main woods. When they entered the little cubin that was to be their home for a week, their atention was attracted to the unusual position of a new stove, .which was set on poa^-s about -four feet high. . j One of the lawyers began to comment upon the knowledge woodsmen gain by observation. "Now," said he, "this man has discovered that the heat radiating from the stove stikes the roof ana tnat tne circulation is so quickened that the camp is warmed in much less time than if the stove were in its regular position." Another was of tiie opinion that it was elevated to 'be above the window ; in order that the cool and pure air ; could be had at night.
