Let's have the smoking tobacco factory. The enterprise will no doubt pay handsome dividends under good management, - and what we need is a diversification of enterprises. The desired capital stock " should be raised without any trouble. *** Mr. J. L. B. Warren, who has been connected w ith the Walterboro Press and ??- Standard for the-past fourteen years, has given up his position as editor of the 'i paper. Mr. Jas. E. Peurifoy, the newowner, is now editor and proprietor. Both gentlemen have our best wishes for success and happiness. K * * * All that muddle over in Kingstree could | ' have been avoided by requiring the parties to sign their own names to the communications published. We wish this }., was a rule of the newspapers anyway. So many fellows bide behind a nou de plume 5^-/ and write articles which stir up strife, g% \ that we think it would be a good plan & ) .for all editors to refuse to print letters unless the real name of the parties was - signed to the same and published. No man should be afraid to sign his name to "what he writes, and if he is, it is safe to say that the article would do no good and possibly harm. Let U9 all insist liere: ~ after on printing real names to articles, whether we agree with the opinions expressed or not. This is the safest and wisest plan. Siap Shots from Tennessee Scenes. Joining a party July 6th I went through the famous "land of the sky" where birdeye views of Saluda, Hendersonville, Biltmore and Asheville were had. ChangV icg cars in Asheville we ran seventy miles ' parallel with the "silver crested" French |Sr Broad river, whose restless current con|pp trasted strikingly with the sluggish flow of the Tennessee. The majestic moun|||||& tain sceuery between Tryon and Asheville had stirred the sentimentality of my nature to such an extent that when the valley beauty of the French Broad dawned on my vision my vocabulary of adjectives . was in a collapse and I had to suffer mys?c self to enjoy it in a comparative degree of silence. Reaching Knoxville a storm of rush, hurry and push reminded me that 1 was ~ in a a5?tt iKftf woo mobinit Lor n?av tn Iiu a vtfrjr man ncm tuaaiu^ uv? n uj ?v the front in the business and scientific world. Taking a "dummy" from there we wen -, out four miles to Whittle Springs, which resort nestles at the foot of a mountain in Knox county. The "dummy" is worthy of some comment. The pug nose locomotive draws two open carriages and afford an immense amount of fnss, dust and slow riding to the weary travell' er. The little engine turns over ones in a while, but never hurts anyone and with complacency is placed back on the track and bidden to proceed ! Hotel "Whittle" is conducted on an ideal plan for the comfort of health seekers. The water is furnished by five springs containing the following minerals respectively: epsom lithia, sulphur iron, chalybeate and limestone. We visited in ? turn Fountain City, Chilhowee park. State experimental farm, University of Tennessee, National cemetery and various other points of interest in Kuoxville. The University is now open to two thousand teachers who are taking a six weeks' course in different branches of learning. The campus with it's halls, dining houses and pavillions presented a picture like that of some ancient villa when Rome was in the zenith of her glory. Much earnest work is being done there, but at the same time an entirely different ennrse is bein? taken bv some I coder tbe instruction of little Cupid. I verily believe a certain class of girls and young men go there for nothing else but "to get up a case"?as the slang has it? and to be sure they succeed ! However this stride made by the South toward a more perfect system of teaching marks an epoch in her scientific history. ^ Chilhowee park is the most perfect blending of natural and artificial beauty I ever beheld. Brightened by hundreds of electric lights and with a casino from which a brass band discourses exquisite music it is a veritable fairy laud. _ historic ground where the battle of Jxnoxville was fought and where history Cr-v kells us General Longstreet and men attempted to storm the fortifications and were repulsed, lies near the city of KnoxA ville. In the national cemetery I lingered a full morning?so much food for thought was there, so much to be proud of, so much to weep over! I cannot fail to menp: tioa how my anger was kindled. On the tomb of General Blank (I do not recall the name) were these words: "A hero p in the war of rebellion." How repugnant1 and insulting is that term, "rebellion" to a Southerner. Historians are getting more polite and conservative these, days, but - once OU U lime lUey Jjiciisuib iu tv%. ferriug to us as "rebels." p v I Leard & great deal about the escape of Harvey Logan, the great outlaw who was imprisoned a year in Kuoxville's jail. It is confidently believed that his escape was _all planned and well paid for as he owns " a big property in the West. In conclusion, I attended for the first time services in a Catholic church. 'Tis needless to say they were to me most peculiar and interesting. Some future time I will take up in detail the brogue and customs of the mountaineers. M. O. Lanier News from Hartzog.

Mr. Alphousc Wise, of Willistou, who has played ball 011 our team several times this season, was right badly hurt in one <>f the games played at Aiken last week between that city aud Oraugeburg. Mr. Wise is a member of the Aiken team, and while at bat was hit by a pitched ball by Sanders, Orangeburg's twirler. The ball struck him on the left side of the face, and it was at first, thought his jaw bone was fractured, as he was knocked down by the blow and carried from the field unconscious. For several days it was feared that his injuries would prove very serious, but he is said to be getting along nicely now. His many friends here hope he will soon recover and suffer no permanent ill effects from the injury. New Advertisements. Dr. A. L. Izlar?Notice. G. Frank Bamberg?Get my prices. Lodge Instituted. It was our pleasure last Thursday evening to attend the institution of a lodge of Knights of Pythias at Olar, to be known as Olar lodge, No. 125. The wo*k was in charge of Grand Chancellor J. M. Knight, of Sumter, assisted by brethren from Barnwell, Bamberg, Denmark, aud other places. Among the visitiug Knights we noted Brothers McNab, Lemon, Jones, Price, Best, and others, of "* *? tv r o o . oaruweu; nauey, i^ar uic, *vay, oi?journer, Baxter, aud many others from Denmark, most of whom did valuable service in the work of conferring the degrees. The regalia was kindly loaned by the Denmark lodge. Sixteen new members were initiated, aud two were received by card, making the lodge start off with a total of eighteen members. The lodge is well officered, and will no doubt be a live and flourishing one. Mr. C. F. Rizer is chancellor commander aud Dr. J. R. McCormack vice chancellor. The Olar brethren were especially kind to the visitors, and nothing was left unI done which could add to our pleasure I and comfort. An elegant supper was j served at Sadler's hotel about dark, and it was indeed a nice affair. Taken all in all it was a delightful occasion, and we feel sure that every one present enjoyed jit. Branchville's Message. Branchville, July 28.?Everyone who was fortunate to go to the Ehrhardt picnic on the 23rd enjoyed a most delightful time and are open and uubouuded in their praises of the hospitality of the Ehrhardt people. There were no private homes on that day, for everyone kept ' open house," and endeavored in their characteristically generous way to make it most pleasant for the boys. In the afternoon the crowd was entertained by a game of base ball between Branchville and Kearse. The game was featureless except for the errors, and resulted in a tie score of 9 to 9 at the end of the Binth inning when it was called ou account of darkness. * At night those who could remain enjoyed their revel with terpsichore until the earl}' hour of four. We trust the county authorities of Bamberg and Orangeburg will soon act in regard to repairing the New Bridge, which ought to be put in good condition before the fall of the year when the farmers will want to market their crops. If we do not have rain in a few days the crops will again have a set back. Owing to continued raiuy weather and now this sndden drought, cotton is beginning to shed rapid)}'. Our tobacco farmers have sold some "luggings" and are not satisfied with the prices received. The prices averaged about three cents a pound, aud they complain that the tobacco trust bought at their own figures. F. Wm. Fairey, who is now reading law under (Japt. Kelly, of Kiugstree, is at home for a mouth's vacation. Since | Fairey, who is our crack base ball pitcher has returned, Branchville has more con! tidence in herself, and is already arranging for a series of games with the neighboring towns. Two games will be played Wednesday and Thursday with Blackville, and next week Orangeburg will be the grand objective point. The council passed an ordinance, to take effect on the 20th instant, prohibiting the riding of bicycles on the sidewalks of Main street. The next day the law was openly and flagrantly violated and ou Friday night it was repealed. Hereafter the old ordinance relating to bicycle riding will be rigidly enforced. Fire Saturday afternoon destroyed a large frame building occupied by Mr. A. W. Berry. The fire originated from a defective flue, and the building burned was the property of W. Fletcher Fairey, of Orangeburg. This building was constructed by Mr. John Reeves about forty years ago, and with its destruction we lose one of our old landmarks. Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Hinely, of Springfield, Ga., are visiting relatives. Miss Nettie Copeland, of Ehrbardt, is spending some time in town. Mr. H. S.

Colston, July 28.?Our farmers are through with their field work for the present, but the crops remain very poor, with a few exceptions.
