It is said the employees are highly pleased with the weekly pay plan.

MI C. Willis, of Yorkville, iH a candidate for the office of adjutant general. Captain Willis has been an officer in the national guard for ten years or longer and is well known throughout the State. He is an extensive planter of this county and has made his home at Yorkville for ! many years. Accompanied by a windstorm I of cyclonic velocity, there was a | considerable fall of hail throughout this section Saturday morna ing about (> o'clock. Immediately after the hailstorm the mercury began to descend and when night came on Saturday the temperature was well nigh down to the freezing point. There was a heavy frost and considerable ice on Sunday morning. For the benefit of Philadelphia Methodist church, a supper will ! be given at the home of Mr. .J. H.

A new enterprise is announced for this community in the statement of John J.

Mr. Bailes will plant crops this spring with a view to supplying the needs of his herd during the coming winter which will number 20 or 25 head of cattle.
