You know where to get electric stoves, irons and all other fixtures in that line. Charles Judson Clary, the little three-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Hagood Clary, met with an unfortunate accident last Sunday morning when a window sash dropped on his right hand and mashed three of his fingers, the first finger tin being cut entirely off at the nail and left hanging on the window sill. The other mashed fingers were injured at the nail joint, but it is thought new nails will replace the ones destroyed. The little fellow showed how brave he was when Dr. Houseal was dressing the injured hand. He controlled his crying manfully and told the doctor that even a grown man would have to cry a little at that. H?roes into manhood stow from just such little T r- or. ru ovlac Tnrlcrvr) ao V>11CI i. u Wvtovn. VARIOUS AND ALL.ABOUT. ''Fair and Warmer" was good only in spots. \\ e have already seen the first straw hat of the new season. There are several 'morning glories" in Newberry. Eggs are down to 15 cents?-not in Newoerry, but in Delaware. When and where will May picnics be held next month? ^ .1- 1 i 1 1 T1 so iar tins ooes not iook iiKe a dry year or a year without a summer. Newberry Sabbath school, A. R. P., invested in $25, for claims 14 and 63 of "Gold Discovered in McCormick.'' Architect J. E. Summer will give a good job in remodeling the Newberry hotel. A two-story school building will be put up in the Oakland Mill village; Mr. L. A. Wilson having the contract. William Johnson \ was killed in Charleston Wednesday. He was a colored man living in that city. Health Officer Matthews and Street Supervisor Werts are kept #prettv busy these days. The pioneers in the wearing of overalls have broken the ice in Newberry. We have some brave men in this city. The Ladies Aid society of the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer will meet with Mrs. B. A. Havird at 5 o'clock Monday afternoon. Some people advertise money to lend and some advertise money to loan. Read The Herald and News when you want to borrow money. Claire Schumpert and his little brother and Maxcy Davis and Harry Taylor, small boys, paid $1 each on Tuesday for riding their wheels on the sidewalks. We have not seen . many ragged clothes yet?only a few?but more + liofnvo TViptp is n mnvp ment on footh to organize the "Ragged Rangers." One reason-why Hal Kohn hasn't been. able to get his new place of business is that James Ferguson, who is doing the painting, has been down with the flu. i A Newberry citizen says the Wisconsin man who died and gave twelve children to an orphanage made about the best donation ever made to an orphanage. I As we go to press this, Thursday,1 afternoon the sad news reaches th'e office that Mrs. Olivia Stewart is at the point of death at the home of her; daughter, Mrs. E. H. Leslie. The State savs the renewed cam paign for the solicitation of $400,000 for the war memorial building:, which terminates April 30, "is attracting: a deal of interest in practically every county of the state." The ladies of Newberry did '''manfully" during clean up week, and the new city road drag has improved the streets very much. It is hoped and believed that hereafter there will be no lagging in street dragging. We think -everybody will, or should, uphold the Newberry bar for having requested the calling off the second week of common pleas court which was to have begun May 17. Jurors for the first week, beginning May 10, - ? 1 will be drawn rriaay. At a conference of prominent insurance men in Columbia Wednesday among those present were Mr. 0. E. Johnson, representing the Southern Home of Charleston, and Mr.. E. A. Griffin, representing the Prudential of Greenville. The good news reached here on Thursday morning from Columbia informing the citizens of this city that the Newberry high school debaters had been successful in helping to eliminate all but six teams of the state for the final contest Friday. It was in the generator room of the Newberry Cotton mill, caused supposedly by spontaneous combustion in the waste, tbnt +h^ recurred at about 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon. Prompt action all around prevented any damage. J. P. Cook, one of our carrier boys, last Saturday stumbled a tub of water and fell out the back' door of his home and broke two bones of his right arm. This did not keep him from delivering his conies of the Herald and News. Owing to change of work and territory Deputy Collector J. H. Hunt or will not collect special taxes r. Xcwberry hereafter. All persons liable for tax mu>i make returns <ii1 t ,\ 1 i-w* ft . ! 1 rifi r,i?i I'fi ? bia to avoid the penalty. During a conversation in another cv y the other day. the party of the second part said that it was not the iault Oj the feminine desire to excel in the matter of dress to please the men, but that "it's nothing in the world but that each woman is trying to outstrip the other." We believe it, as it looks like it to a man up a tree. The general manager and director, Mr. M. C. Hall man, of the Newberry County Singing convention is beginning preparation for the next annual meeting on the oth Sunday in August. Kojse of meeting will be announced Intpv A tvinl will bp mnde to fet two of the finest singers in the states . to attend the convention. That measley fice which, in a mad dog fit, bit other dogs last Sunday, was killed later the same day by Mr. Frank Merchant in the country. At Oakland many dogs were killed on Monday, the dogs being victims of the mad dog's mania, while the police department killed eight or ten; besides several dogs and cats were killed by colored people in the city. Life in Newberry now is one blooming thing after another. There is always something going on. No one reporter can keep up with them all, and this one does not attempt the task. One man can't be at more than one place at a time. If parties interested in entertainments and meetings want accounts of the same published they ought to send them in. People here "crowd the monkey." Elsewhere in this paper is to be found the accounts of tne triangular debate of the Newberry, Presbyterian and Wofford college teams. The debate here was opened with prayer by Dr. W. K. Gotwaid. Mr.- Carlisle Oxner presided and the college jazz orchestra furnished the music. The affirmative (Clinton)%on, the judges being Dr. A. J. Bowers, Rev. J. W. Carson, Rev. E. V. B&bb* Mr. Arthur Kibler and Mr. M. L. Spearman. Lodged in jail charged with manufacturing and storing contraband liquor are two white men, Luther Case and Jim Watson, from Tryon, N. C. ( They were arrested on Wednesday by Deputies Taylor and McCarley and Magistrate's Constable Koon of Pomaria, who destroyed the two stills they found. One of the stills was a crude affair in the annexed portion of Newberry county, th' other being in the old part of the county set up in a furnace. The officers also destroyed 30C gallons of mash. The men when arrested were working at a sawmill in the vicinity. The Newberry college student body went wild Tuesday night, and Tviinrpd the town red. or at least "a bright vermillion hue." The boys have been having such great success lately in debates and ball games they just had to give vent to their feelings. They had a full head of steam on and a safety valve was necessary to prevent bursting. The pent up steam finally escaped and the large crowd took the city by storm. It is a crowd that can make a loud noise, too. The cyclone was fast and furious while it lasted, but at last it blew away and quieted down. The enthusiasm lasted longer, however, as the college gave holiday on Wednesday.' What's all right? Why, "Newberry,". of_course. The negro JaKe uougias, wno was mentioned in Tuesday's paper as being in jail for having fired at a white man near Boyd's crossing Sunday afternoon, was tried before Aiagis-. trate Chas. W. Douglas after we went to press on Monday afternoon. The negro pleaded guilty to the three counts with which he was charged. Magistrate Douglas went the limit in all three charges and sentenced Douglas to pay a fine of $100 to serve 30 days for each. The $300 shows the high cost of firing .a pistol on the public highway, carrying a concealed weapon and using obscene language, all causing a breach of the peace, the j three indictments against the negro Douglas, who had to take the days in lieu of money payment.
