_ v I ? SEIVERN COA V- " mm-:- ? "X. On November 15 Et';sto Academy KSfl: was host to the Seivern Community ' v.i" Fair. The large display included i&vU s. school, farm and home exhibits, and also some very interesting relics. The " booths of the Sunday school, the B. T." P. U. and Y. W. A. were partieularly attractive and educational people from five rural school communities were present. Refreshments were sold by a committee for the benefit of the piano fund. At midday addresses were made by Messrs. Johnson and Winters and ; Miss Harper, Demonstration Agenu / from Aiken. Others who assisted f them in judging the entries were Miss Oaughman of Lexington, Mr. Harmon of Aiken and Mr. Mills of Wagener. During the afternoon a highly interesting game of volley ball was played iS I by picked teams from the Edisto boys. Inasmuch as student committees did practically all the work of staking the fair, the actual crsh expenditure did not amount to more than three dollars. Blue ribbons were awarded as follows: J. H.

Williamson, a retired merchant and farmer, and prominent citizen ol Wagener, was found dead yesterday in the back yard of his home at that town ,with his head almost severed from his body. The evidence tends to show that ho was a victim of foul play, as blood stains were found leadins from his bed room to the place where the body was found, which indicates that he received the fatal wound while lying in bed, and rushed out of the house before bleeding to death near a wagon in his yard. Sheriff Howard and Coroner Tarver spent half of the night making an investigation, which thus far fails to showeither the supposed murderer or the motive for the crime. The inquest will not be concluded for several days yet, or until the people and officers are fully satisfied. The deceased leaves a widow and two sons, one of whom is a student at Furman University besides many other relatives and friends. Interment took place late this afternoon at the Wagoner cemetprv. CAR OF FINE HOGS SHIPPE D TT ESDAY The first cooperative shipment ol hogs was made from the pens of tlie Colleton Products Association Tuesday afternoon. These hogs came from several points in the county and were sold to a Charleston concern, which made a better offer than could be had in Richmond, taking into account the difference in the freight rates and the probable shrinkage from shipping. This car was assembled through the combined efforts of President Shaffer, of the C. P. A., and County Agent Kinsey. It was composed ol hogs from seven farmers, and the average weight was 171 pounds. The shipment was as fine and smooth a bunch of hogs as was ever assembled here. Many of them were thoroughbreds and these demonstrated the advisability of turning from scrubs tc thoroughbreds, on account of the quicker growth and the smoothness ol the a?iimnb-.?Walterboro Press & Standard.

' < On last Thursday about 2 p. m. Mr. W. E. Quattlebaum's homo was ] completely destroyed by fire. It was one of the largest and most substan- * tial homes in Leesville. Probably half of the furniture was saved. The fire , originated in a room over the kitchen, but just how no one seems to know. The loss sustained by Mr. Quattlebaum was probably $$.000 with $2.S00 insurance. Remarkable "It is simply rotten. The people here treat us as if they knew we ivere not accustomed to much money ?and yet I am always talking about money." 7ns. Watson Says. "I'll .Never Forget Wlien Father's Hogs Got Cholera." "One morning he found 20 hogs dead and several sick. He called in the Vet. who after dissecting a rat caught on the premises, decided that the rodents had conveyed germs.
