last Sunday: He was dep^fj
agent at Roswell, Ga., but the SoutlK
-?rn railway let the charte. expirfg
which discontinued the oftiee there?
throwing Agent HU1 out on his other
resources. Roswell is said to be a
?tod place. The Southern ought to
<Io better than that.
Mr. A. Forrest Counts returned on
Wednesday from a pleasant visit to;
Orangeburg, a pretty, progressive |
place. That's what he says, and you!
know when a man gets warmed up j
over a town, there must be a reason, j
the?way he talks, and looks, hei
had a most delightful time. We'll
be takes another trip.
Hon. Gee >e S. Mower, of New-j
berry, past grand high priest of j
Roya. Arch Masons, was in the city
last, night at the meeting of the
Greenwood chapter, No. 37 R. A. M.

Ee*. T. C. Croker was in the city]
Tuesday morning for the first time j
. sii*ce he was stricken with apoplexy, j
'He .was at his accustomed place in the !
pulpit preaching when the stroke']
.came, five weeks ago. Rev. Mr. j
broker is the well beloved pastor of!
vSmyrna church and has many friends j
in the county and city who will be.
giad to hear of his recovery, and j
*s*fa? will hope that he may be spared!
. yet many years to continue his good I
-work in useful and helpful life.
Dr. Robert W. Houseal stopped]
-over in Newberry between trains j
Wednesday, returning to his duties i
in Augusta from a visit to his brother,
:W, CG. Hoaseal, Jr., medical student
- jfc the Johns Hopkins university. The;
? Ifetfer had been very ill, the case be-(
' m& <? a puzzling nature until young |
DOctorilvouseal arrived and pronounc-1
> 3d' i?cto.-fee ?a case of "sleeping disease,"
to :use the language of the
common people. Dr. Houseal report- j
" "his brother as "having a mild attack I
and that he was much improved,
which .good news will be gladly re- j
1 /acfcitfs'd by the many friends here.
There were many of these cases, as
so pronounced by this already eminent
young physician, who is gaining
a national refutation as a foremost I
. diagnostician. . j

A case of smallpox in the Oakland
mill villnfie was reported by Dr.
Hoi:seal Thursday morning.
it would not do for a reporter to
publish all that he hears. Some of it,
"however, would make spicy reading.
Looks like more rain and too much
-rest. It is warming up now, but
everybody agrees that this has been
-Ihe coldest March.
Rev. J. E. Meng of Greenwood will
preach at Mt. Zion Sunday morning
af. n o'clock and at West End Sun-!
day night at 7:30.
The influenza situation is reviving
a little. Seven new cases were reported
Thursday morning, making 52
cases now on hand.
A young man went to a garage to
^et his auto tire "scandalized." His
machine was in bad fix with a "leak\
ling reservoir" and other things. I
| We regret that Rev. W. S. Holmes |
: has the influenza at his home in *
' Laurens, which keeps him from com-1
j ing to Newberry and holding the \
lenten services he had Announced. j
Every time a new man comes to!
New berry we take him to be either .
an insurance agent, an automobile;
; salesman, a mule dealer or beef mar- j
\ ket* man, until we find out better, j
A man went to a certain postoffice <
| in South Carolina and wanted a j
| package by purcell post. No doubt j
j he had heard that Purcell did a tre-;
i mendous business.
j If the automobiles get more numer- j
! ous some of us will have to go about j
in flying machines to get out of the |
way. It was a sight to see the rush I
of cars in this city Saturday.
! Those well known cattle men, I
I Boozer & Hutchinson, bought 55
head of the fine beef cattle the John-:
son-McCrackin company had cn hand
this week.
It is much better to be called out
' to a little fire than to a big one. But
i large or small the reputation of the
j Newberry company for controlling
| fires is the finest in the state, accord
| mg to all reliable reports.
| The republican congressional con|
vention for this district will be held
i in Newberry on next Tuesday, called
i by County Chairman G. C. Williams.
! The convention will elect delegates to t
| the national convention.
I At the Helena colored school Wednesday
one pupil shot another. Wil|

'.inflicted on Henry Gary. Another j
i case of bovs handling f'reerms.
i A young fellow came to this office j
! Tuesday cftemoon and got a copy of ;

killing time a couple of nights last;

good white.

A certain young man in this city
says he didn't know that so many
people all overt the county read The i
Herald and News until a week or so j
ago; when he heard numerous times i
from every direction something concerning
an item in this variation
column.

| Probate Judge W.F. Ewart is still
: engaged in the pastime of marrying
I couples between acts of his other
j official duties. Saturday afternoon a j
| youthful looking colored couple, Silas j
Wise and Hattie Renwick, both ofj
Prosperity, were married by the!
smiling judge. \
The salary of City Clerk and!
Treasurer Chapman was raised $15 a j
month by city council at the meeting j
Tuesday night. Among other business
transactions at the meeting was
the buying of a Ford truck for the
health department. Council also de~ <

barn for the new machinery.
The bond commissioners appointed ;
by Mayor Eugene Blease were sworn i
in on Monday afternoon. Mr. F. Z, j
Wilson was made chairman of thej
commission, with Mr, T. K; Johnsone
as .clerk and treasurer. The other commissioners
are Messrs H. L. Parr,
T. Roy Summer and J. Marion Davis. '
It is a fine commission board.
Robert Wilson, colored, fell in an!
epileptic lit at the corner of rriend^
and Caldwell streets, oposite T. M.!,
Rogers' jewelry store, and received
severe bruises on his forehead. He j.
was given medical attention and car-;rie
! heme, reviving from his stupor.:
"Wilson is subiec: to these attacks. !Ie
was street cleaner in the pV-tce of ]M--k
Stewart, who is at-home cwir.:/ to'the s
illness of his wife.
Thp T.vdia school in Clinton was'
hard hit by the influenza. The ?
school was taught by Mrs. Annie P. j
Oxner of Newberry as principal, j
with three assistants. Among the [
sick were the four teachers, and of j
course the school was closed. One of j
i the teachers, Miss Estelle Dominick \
died on Monday morning at 1 o'clock, I
at her home in Prosperity. The j
other teachers recovered.
^ !
% County Organizer Kal Kohn states!
that a post of the American legion j
has just been organized at Prospertiy
and that application for the charter
I has been forwarded to headquarters.
With the recently organized post at j
Newberry college, the combined j
membership of the posts in this j
county now runs over the 200 mark,
and it is expected to have a greater
per cent enrolled b>\ the end of
summer.
A couple came to the probate
judge's office late Saturday and told
Judge Ewart they wanted him to
marry them. After the judge had
written the license the man informed
him that he already had a license.
As Judge Ewart destroyed the license
he had written he did not remember
the full name of the man except that
he was a Mr. Riley of Saluda; the ,
lady's name \^as Miss Maude
Smith of Leesville. They were
then married. j
Seeing "Zeke" Crump limping
up Main street Wednesday morning
with one arm in a sling and one part'
of his loose hand bandaged, it was
thought he had been ditched by an
automobile or something, as he said
he had sustained "three compound i
dislocations," but the accident resulted
irt Viic -fallinc r>flF n in
Spartanburg. The people along Mr. j
W. A. Wherry's city route where Mr.j
CrUmp has been substitute in deliver-'
ing mail, as well as other people of
the community, will be glad that the
accident was no worse. j
A citizen came very near being
run down by an automobile on the
public square Saturday. In the noise
and confusion of so many cars he
did not see or hear the car at his
heels until it was close enough to
make him hustle for his safety if
not for his life. Everybody is waiting
to see the new law enforced. The
cars running in and out of the
square from the four corners of the
earth is "something else." 'There is
entirely .toa ..much waiting and j
dodging to.be done on the part of!
people attending to their business in
this city. :
i
If you don't know what an optical
edging machine, is, and want to
know, see Jeweler T. M. Rogers,- whc>,
in addition to his line of jewelry,
watches, clocks, etc., has glasses for
all sorts of eyes and noses. He has
ordered the machine for grinding
lenses, which will enable the citizens i
of Newberry to have such work done
here instead t)f being compelled as
heretofore to send it abroad. This'
is a good movement on the part of
Mr. Rogers, who not only sells the
article he deals in but is able to repair
such personal property. The
optical machine ought to be a paying
investment for him, as it will
also be an accommodation to tne
public.

Death of Mr. M. A. Carlisle. I
Mr. Milton Anderson Carlisle died;
suddenly at his home in this rcity
Wednesday night, as he was fonnd
dead in bed on Thursday morning.
Not answering the call to breakfast,

great surprise to the citizens 01 tms

of them while on the streets Wednesday

visit to his son and daughter.

been made up to our press hour, the
