VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT. Many early risers saw frost in Newberry Saturday morning. Magistrate Douglas has issued more hunting licenses to date than at any previous similar time. A young white boy paid a fine of $3 in the recorder's court Friday for swinging on train. Wanda Hawley will be in "Food | for Scandal" Wednesday at the opera j house. I "Help Yourself" at the opera house Thursday. Follow Madge Kennedy in the picture. There will be a special picture Tuesday at the opera house, entitled "In the Heart of a Fool." Watch "The Purple Cipher" at the | opera house tonight, ivionaay, . wun I Earle Williams-featured in the pic| ture. Down in Calhoun county, among the school teachers, they have Hamm ^and Lemmon in the same boarding house. The special rates for the State fair October 25-29, and for the colored fair November 1-G, will be $2.40 from Newberry and $2.02 from Prosperity. Trinity Woman's Missionary society will meet with Mrs. R. A. Pitts at 3 o'clock on next Friday afternoon. All the women of the church are asked to be present. The Mollohon band gave a concert Saturday afternoon on the Confederate monument lawn and made good music, which was much enjoyed by a large crowd. On the 18th of October, 1884, says Mr. Thomas J. Hays, there was the biggest kind of a frost in Newberry. The weather was very pleasant from then on, with no more frost that year until after Christmas. Weather Observer W. G. Peterson, -1 1 X _ 1 ,1, + we are giaa iu suait;, is uutiv un mc job. He reported the official thermometer as registering 55 Friday morning. The rainfall on Tuesday was one inch and Wednesday night and Thursday 1.16. Encouraging to many Newberry people are the following headlines in Friday's State: "Slump in prices being extended. Consumers scon to get benefit of drop. Public now exacting. Wave begun by wholesalers to be reflected by retailers." This is still leap year, but we don't hear anything about it. The only feature of it left standing is Christ mas, which comes one day later this year on account of the "leap." Christmas was on Thursday last year, you remember. Twenty-four negro gamblers who were "corralled" and brought in by Deputy Sheriff McCarley had a hearing before Magistrate Douglas Saturday. The magistrate extracted $15 from each, which you can see for yourself made a grand total of .$360. j. * "The Flower Shop" show cleared $280 for the two performances Thursday and went to Clinton Friday night, clearing $44 there. To clear this much after all expenses paid and the promoter's share gone, is a fine showing. ! The motor truck driven by Mr. * * * ^ _T?* J ?3 ?l. "I\f? Jonn i. jjameisen comueu wim mi. B. C.

Circus day and press daj j came together Monday, with the re; suit that circus day won out.

Circus j day always did make a 'big time foi | little children and children of z I larger growth. J Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Leitzsey hav( j located in Chester.

He is now running betweei Chester and Lenoir as postal railwaj clerk and his family have moved tc Chester and his health has greatlj improved and he is doing fine. A lady of Silverstreet wants t< know what it was that Mr. Wilbui ; Gantt sprinkled on vines to keep of the army worms. It was a mixtur< of lime and tobacco dust. If the to bacco dust can not be had, try Mr Jack Gregory's plan: Beat the vine.' with a stick to knock the worms of and then turn your chickens into th< garden?they will do the rest. I: you have no chickens of your own the visiting chickens will do th< work. Card of Thanks.
