( fche mill will improve the plant; tne ^ company has $77,600 capital stock,1 j and that controlling stock was recently purchased by certain shareholders.

It win be mighty interesting reading to many friends to be told that i "there will be shown, at the opera louse, three episodes of "The Invis- j 1 ible Hand." Food profiteers are being arrested j n other places for charging 15 cents. for one loaf of bread. They ought t lo be punished.

Holmes. 1 c After spending two or three days v n Newberry the large army recruitng outfit from Camp Bragg, N. C., * eft on Thursday morning for Spar- * ;anburg. The outfit attracted much e ittenticn and made the public square s )y the opera house look like a fort * n war times. v Bird hunting can be indulged in un- T :il the first of March, and partridges 11 md quails may have a hard time liv- c ng for several days yet. The quail * s said to be a little larger than the J" partridge, but they "all look alike" ;o some people. Maybe they call them j* mails un north and nartride-es down r* outh. L The. Newberry readers of the ^ Charleston News and . Courier are 1 r /ery much put out because they have 7ait so often until the 4:05 train for their papers. What's the matter? We wish it could be remedied. People here want the News and Cour-. ier to come on the Cannon Ball j every morning. Late in the after- ^ ioon doesn't suit them at all. A trifle before 11 o'clock Wednes-! 3ay morning the fire alarm sounded j igain, calling the -fighting company g md the people to the. corner of Main a and Nance streets, where the little c ire between tfie stores of Gus c Metchicas and Campbell Havird was ^ ;-aused by a defective fiue in the first <] nentioned building. The fire com- + jany's promptness in arriving at the ' a >cene and applying the chemical hose v >revented further damage than the ^ >urning of a hole in the roof to the 0 oss of probably not exceeding $15. j, A new stairway between the stores >f Miss Anne 0. Ruff & Co., and the ^ sewberry Hardware Co., was not put a here any too soon, as it was rotten. ^ ^atrons of Jack Gilliam's barber shop ^ teed have no more fear of falling ^ hrough and they will now have the 'loasuie of being shaved and other/ise treated in barber fashion with j lore satisfaction.

The cases of j ourse include all in the city and mill j Ullages. The report that seven new cases j lad been reported in one day since 1 he quarantine was raised is caleulat-, a to make some people think the ituation is not as good as they j hought it was. In view of that fact! ve must say that the seven cases were | lot for one day and also that of that umber some were up when the health tfficer went to the homes to see after hem. We simply relate these facts; o allay any misapprehension on the I tart of nervous DeoDle. ; Death of Mr. Walter WillingHam. Mr. Walter Willingham died at the tome of his daughter, Mrs. Florence Darby, in Columbia on Wednesday norning and was*buried at Rosemont :emetery, Newberry, after the arrival >i the 1 o'clock train Thursday. Be:ides the daughter at whose home he lied he is survived by the following ;ons and daughters: Messrs. John and fames Willingham, Mrs. Bluford Buzlardt and Mrs. William Boozer. From Central to Central. . ? i_j? x di _; A young iaay came lrum ?>jair? a hort while back and took up her tbode at the Central house, the home >f her uncle, Mr. Jno. C. Adams. She ame to accept a position at the Cenral exchange of the Southern Bell j telephone company in this city, but he terrible "flu"' kept her back for .while; not that she had it, only there i-as too much of it around, which :ept her in Central the first and out f Central the second for the time beng. But at last the darkened situation lightened, the clouds and the quarntine lifted, and the young lady took er position as one of the bright and eautiful bright-eyed bevy of "hello iris," and the ever attractive bunch" has been made more attrac ive by the addition. We are glad to have Miss Agnes .dams as one to whisper softly in ur ear through the telephone, "Numer, please." And if she could/>nly e so fortunate as not to say, ''Line usy," when we are in a hurry it ould be so nice. The young beach nut who once aced upon the sands of time on the iashore, the ever living words, Agnes, I love you," has given us, own through the ages since, the lance to say to this young girl: Agnes, we love to hope that for a >ng time to come, as long as it may e your wish, you will continue > divide your time between the Cen al house and the Central exchange iroughout the weeks and be at your ^customed place in the Central j [ethodist church on Sundays."
