The cotton mill started up the card room this (Thursday) morning, fire be7 ing put in the boilers for the first time w Monday afternoon. Every department PP^t of the mill will commence work next Monday morning. The magnitude of the >" repairs done on the plant in the last twe . - months is surprising, aud can only be understood by those who are full}' ac quainted with cotton mills and stean: plants. The mill will run on full time from now on, and it is expected that the repairs to the steam plant will materiall) decrease running expenses, yet enabling the mills to turn out more finished pro duct.

The attendance was much larger than usual, a goodly number of the brethren beiug present and taking an interest in the proceedings. The lodge is in a flourishing condition, and it is also probable that a Royal Arch Chapter will be established here in a short time. Parties who owe us money are respectfully reminded that we can't pay our debts without money, neither can we live on wind. There is not a dollar owing us but what we have worked very hard for and honestly earned. We don't care for any one to patronize us if they are going to take forever to settle. We don't want that kind of business. Our business should be conducted ou a cash basis, but it likes a long shot of being that now. Dispensary Sales.

The county board of commissioners held a regular quarterly meeting here last Monday, Supervisor Bruce and Commissioners J. J. Fogle and J. Wm. Carter being present. A petition was presented asking for a new road from Bamberg to Hunter's Chapel church, this being the route surveyed out a short time ago. The petition was granted, and it is proposed to build a new highway for a part of the distance andstraighten out the old road onthe Hunter's Chapel end. The citizens along the proposed new road to secure the right of way without expense to the county. Morris Williams asked to be placed on the pauper list, and Supervisor Bruce was authorized to investigate his condition. Mary Gregg petitioned to be placed on the pauper list, and she was granted $2.50 per month. Col. Jno. P. Folk presented a claim for damages to a mule by getting into a bridge on the Midway road just below towu. The amount asked for was $16.25, but the board refused to pay the claim. ' Lavinia Hagins made application to be placed on the pauper list, and Commissioner Fogle was authorized to investigate her condition. In the matter of the bridge being destroyed at Howell's old mill the board passed the following resolution, and it is supposed that the bridge will be built at once and the road opened for travel: Whereas, the bridge across the public highway on Howell's mill dam has beefk destroyed by flood and fire, and now for a period of over three months the general public has been unable to use said highway on account of there being no bridge over the stream on which the said dam is situated; And, whereas, the owner of said mill and dam, for the period above mentioned, has not had the same repaired, although a reasonable time has elapsed since the washing away and burning of said bridge, and that no effort is now being made to repair the same; and it being a great inconvenience to the general public in its present condition; Now, therefore, be it resolved, that we, the County Board, of Commissioners, do declare that the repair of said highway is most needful for the convenience of the traveling public, and is necessary for the proper travel and traffic of the country at large, and we do hereby authorize the proper repairs on said highway to be done without delay. A number of claims were approved, and the board adjourned, after a session of several hours. An Appreciative Advertiser.

The Atlanta News says: "The odds are overwhelmingly in favor of Tillman's acquittal of the charge of murder of Gonzales," said one of the most prominent politicians of this State who was at the : Piedmont this morning, having just returned from the trial at Lexington. I The speaker, who is a lawyer of note, has studied the case and has obtained information as to the evidence to be introduced which has not yet reached the newspaper correspondents at the trial. "Evidence virtually irrefutable will be developed In a day or two," ne said, "which will have as its burden the allegation that messages had passed between Tillman and Gonzales that each intended to shoot the other on sight. The importance of such testimony is obvious. "But the coup that will turn the bal- . auce in favor of Tillman is the securing by his counsel of a witness who will swear that he saw Gonzales make a move m to get his pistol from his pocket before |< Tillman fired the fatal shot. I "I was also informed by a lawyer who knew the ropes that ten of the jury are staunch Tillmanites and they are prepared to hold out for an indefinite period for a verdict of acquittal." j If you need a buggy or wagon you.can't afford not to get Frank Bamberg's prices. He is not giving this stuff away, but he is coming as near doing that as any other dealer in the State.
