In view of the very low returns of of

City council held a regular monthly ut
meeting Tuesday afternoon. Aside from
the regular routine busiuess, paving of ca
bills, etc., the ouly matter of importance T1
was the raising of the Mayor's salary from
$100 to $200 per year, 'fhis will take ef- t?!
fopt fnr fbp new Mavor. to he elected on wl
Tuesday, May 5th. Major Hays will not H:
stand for re-election as Mayor. W
The most earnest advocates of the new ?
graded school building do not want or
expect the money to be spent extravaga.r t- p
! ly, and if it is found that a suitable hocke ^
can be built and furnished for $(>,000, only
{that amount of bonds will be issued. All ue
this talk of having to issue ten thousand
dollars in bonds is a mere bugaboo. A _
reliable gentleman tells us he already has
I a buyer for the bonds who will accept any ,ja
amount we issue, even if not more than
$5,000 so if the building committee de- W1
cides to erect a building for less thau pa
$10,000, there will be no difficulty in float- jal
ing the bonds. Every man wdio wants to is
see the town and community prosper
should go and vote for the lxmds, for the As
money is not going to be wasted. T1

Rev. Richard Carroll, manager of an g(
industrial home in Columbia for negro SJ
boys and girls, lectured to white people 0
only in the court house last Sunday after- C(
noon. He had a good audience, many of
the leading c^izens of the town being p
present. Many ladies were in the au- a
dience. Carroll made a good talk on the ^
race problem, and of course brought up p
, the work in which he is engaged: that of ^
training negro children to be intelligent c,
industrial workers. Our white people a'
were well pleased with his speech, and 0
in a partial canvass of the town on Mon- tj
day he received substantial aid for his a
school. Gen. F. M. Bamberg gave him t]
r one hundred dollars: $50 for his school ^
and $50 for the Epworth Orphanage, the j,
white orphanage of the Methodist church. P

A mass meeting was held in the coi
iuse Monday afternoon for the purpc
r discussing the question of issui]
>nds for the erection of a new grad
hool building, there being some oppo
3n to voting ten thousand dollars f
is purpose. Hon. F .Gxplolk was ma
lairman. Sever'* .jgYJrfg speeches
i-iir t)io limiKL WHre made, ai
bile Maj. E. R. Hays and Gen. F. ]
tmberg opposed spending ten thousai
>llars for a building, they were willii
build a house to cost less money. J
Dowliug, J no. R. Bellinger, Jno.
jlk, H. C. Folk, and others spoke
vor of the dwelling, showing the nee
id necessities of the district in tL
atter, and making strong arguments
vor of the erection of a new and ad
late building.
It appears that all are agreed as to t!
icessity of a new building, and the on
fference of opinion is as to the amou
icessary for this purpose. It is believi
at with the election of a judicious buil
g committee, composed of sound bu;
iss men who will not spend one doll
ore than is absolutely necessary, f
use for opposition will have vanishe
jis building committee is to be cot

w building.

ir- to the play. Among those from Hamp?ol

of Hampton. Music was furnished by Ehres

on nicely except one little mishap to A. C.

of store box that formed a part of the stage 1
and the box broke through, precipitating I

of beautiful, calm sunshine day. The merry
on crowd began to assemble at about 10
;he o'clock a. in. and at about 1.30 o'clock
ble dinner was announced by the good wife,
3ol Mrs. R. J. Hightower, and we were all
)li- invited to go to the dining room where
tor a magnificent dinner awaited our arrival,
as The table fairly groaned under its weight
me of abundances, such as chicken, turkey,
im ham, cakes of all kinds, and pies of all
ool descriptions, besides other dainties and
are deserts. We tried to Jdo the table 1
nts justice, but it would have fed three times I
,nd the crowd which was 50 or more. Hurrah I
the for Bro. K. J.; he is a merry ami jouv
mt, fellow and only looks to be about &> I
eq- years old and is a grandfather; lie has I
ay- three or four grandcjiik]rpn. Mrs. High- 1
tax tower also looks young and happy. After J
bly dinner was over we were invited back in (
of tho parlor where we witnessed some (
idi- sweet music played on the violin by Bro.

nation or death if not relieved.
I If every constipated sufferer
i could realize that he is allowing

I system, he would soon get relief.
I Constipation invites all kind ol
contagion. Headaches, biliousness,

disappear when constiI
