Mr. and Mrs. Wayland Britt of Newberry spent the week-end with homefolks in and near town.?McCormick News, 24th. Miss Agnes Adams spent Eastet with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. T. P. Adams, at Blairs. Mrs. Harry Price and children of Spartanburg are visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Mann. Mr. Lance Swindler spent the week-end with his people in Newberry, instead of spendnig it in Columbia as usual. Mr. W. F. Wightman read of Mr. Jno. B.. Mayes' Easter peas and said he had a mess ready for Saturday but waited until Sunday to have them cooked. Miss Hortense Woodson, our fair linotype operator, spent Easter in Edgefield with her mother, Mrs, Agatha Abney Woodson, and other home relatives. Mr. L. I. Epting has been elected delegate from the Church of the Re deemer to the Newberry conference at St. Paul's Lutheran church. Mr. Claiide H. Williams has re\ turned from Philadelphia, after having accompanied his sister, Mrs. Grady Holt and baby to that city on a visit to Mr. Holt.

The first of April this year falls cn Friday, which will be unlucky for 'some superstitious people. This March has not been like himself. It makes people wonder if April will be like herself. 'larch generally blows and kicks up dust like a man, while April showers the flowers like a woman. "A Nicht in Honolulu" was good, and a full. house enjoyed it. The Hawaiian snake dance was the best we have ever seen. The music by the native Hawaiians was fine. All characters acted their parts well. Altogether it was the best show that has been here in some time. The banks and educational institutions observe Good Friday. Other public places ought to regard the sacred day to keep it holy. We asked the question, "Can you beat it?"?meaning the English peas Jno. B. Mayes said he would have for Tracer dinner. Alone: came Dr. J. M. Kibler with a mess on Good Friday. This office is in possesion of material for "A Tale of An Umbrella.'" Two busy men met at the postoffice corner. One had an umbrella and wanting to show the other something in a newspaper handed him the said piece of personal property to hold. After discussing the subject on hand the two separated, without thinking of the umbrella, as it was not rainir.g ?and both men "have sense enough to get out of a shower." Later the owner of the umbrella missed it and couldn't recall where he had left it, and the man holding it walked to h!s place of business and was puzzling his brain to think where he get it. The editor was not cxacily right in his little squib Tuesday. The reporter had already called attention to the mud hole in fror.l of the postoffice and saw no use in spoiling the paragraph about the nc.v fence C around Dr. Daniel's garden near "the shade of the beautiful tree." And, then, he was looking for beauty, and; found it. | l Tonight, Monday, again it ii "A;1Misfii Wife," at the opera house, and*c Tuesday will bring us "The Girl With | : .Tt/7 Upri)*t." jS w.x. ( Eggs were more plentiful than ever! this Easter, and cheap, and every- j body more or less thought they would 1 v be high and not so easy to get. These j c are funny times. jFriday, which will be he first of! April, is Arbor day. Trees are to be! planted on that day, we wouldn't foci you. Unless they grow very fast, * "Joe W." may not be here to cutj1" them down, although we hope he will |5 be here for a long time yet. While we j 1 are at it, hope he'll never cast his cut-1j * " iV? ^ ?? I 1 ting eye on mat "posiomce tree. The great attraction this week will 1 i be "The Kid,'' at the opera house on 1 1 Wednesday and Thursday;?and the * picture can be seen for 10 and 231* cents. ? Several of the Columbia fire com- ( I panies are already talking about at-1 r , tending the tournament the first week j' t in Jun'e.?From 20 years ago in thef State, 26th. We saw two or three working mules j in this city Saturday which would j] never do duty another day if we had . a live society for the prevention of j cruelty to animals here. : I We didn't know what was in store , for us when we mentioned that Mr. -j , Jno. B. Mayes had told us about his Easter peas. Mr. Jno. W. Earhardt j threw several peas at us Saturday g from an auotombile in which he was * passing, kidding and guying us with ( the reminder that "John Mayes is not f the only man with Easter peas." Now, John B., you see what you got t us into. 1 Five gamblers and two for assault r and battery, all colored, were before \ Recorder Chapman Monday.

It Xicitl illUUC ^uu;i pi ( g before the alarm was sent in, and the j \ first alarm was sent from the wrong !a direction, causing the firemen to start! c out on the wrong track; but the fireir was outside the city limits and the j store was destroyed with all its cor.:| tents. 3Ir.

And yet there arc people in his county who will continue to grow rotton and buy hay and corn and flour md meat and things they can grow p o abundantly right here in Xewbery. Why Such an Effort? Exchange. Sometimes people look upon at- ~ :end?nce at church as a duty which nust be performed, and yet one - - . . * 11 vhich requires more or less ot an ei- fort. When we pro to a show we pay the t )rice to see performers reproduce icenes of everyday life that are old ^ ;o mankind. It afFords us the change >ur natures require and we are satisied.
