A meeting of the Excutive com mit toeofSe County Fair association was held last night, and it waa de cided to sell at least the remainder of the stock, not subscribed, up to the $2,000, for which the sssoeiation was chartered.

That part of the building given to the Art Exhibit proved to be one of the greatest points of interest. Many were greatly surprised at the vein of talent displayed there. Pro- ductions in oil and water color paint ings. pen and ink sketches, mechani cal drawings, and pyrography were exhibited. Many of the pieces re vealed the touch of the true artist, from which the amateur received en couragement and inspiration, that ( will piomote the necessity of a larger ' space for art at the coming Fairs of our county. The perfect restfulness and beauty of the floral exhibit appealed lo the hearts of all nature lovers. Ferns, palms and other pot-plants of numer ous varieties were entered. Few handsomer ferns have ever been seen in large nurseries than the win ner of one of the first prizes; an ex quisite Boston sword fern, measur ing eighteen feet in circumference. Two large lemon plant? heavy with fruit were greatly admired. Chrys anthemums in nature’s richest tones, gave a touch of color that added to the green foliage of palm and fern. The exhibitors of these plants should feel proud to know that their exhibit has helped to serve one of the greatest purposes of the Fair; that of lending inspiration to the in experienced. LYCEUM ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT. The third of the lyceum entertain ments, will be given at the Court House here tonight by Hal Merton, the Magician, Ventriloquist and Entertainer, and whose wonderful skill has won for him the title. Master of Magic. His marvelous feats in the art of deception have never failed to charm ana fascinate the audience. One of the most at tractive features of the entertain ment is the flow of humorous re marks accompanying each experi ment, thereby causing excessive out bursts of laughter and applause. This entertainer may well be termed a popular conjurer, for he is just serious enough for the thought ful, humerous enough for the laugh ter-loving, refined enough for the fashionable, and mysterious enough to please the old and young, so let everyone come out and enjoy a good hearty laugh. MORALLY BOUND. Lodge, Nov. 13:—Editor Press and Standard: If you have a copy of the proceedings of the Conven tion of 1906 1 would be very glad for the proceedings of said Convention to be re-published. It may be that it will remind and freshen the, memories of the voters of Golletop county. a * At said convention there was a resolution unanimous!v adopted in the said county convention and was put in the hands of the delegates to State convention, giving St Paul's Parish representation to the extent of one county commissioner and one representative.. That rule failed to reach the State convention, or in other words, the State convention never acted on it, and in as much as that rule fuled to be put before the convention in Columbia, we, voters of Colleton county, are morally bound to that rule untU it is paawd upon by toe State convention. It is fair, just and right. Equal rights to all; special privileges to none. Yourt. TH Caldwell. [The report of this convention as published May 6,1906 in The Press and Standard, gives the fact as re cited above by Mr Caldwell.—Ed.] C A GRAVES HURT. Quite a painful accident happened to C A Graves, foreman of The Press and Standard, Saturday morning. This paper had a booth at the Fair grounds, in which a job press was placed for printing circulars. Sat urday morning the press was placed on a wagon to return it to the office; On reaching the rear of The Press and Standard building, the horse be came frightened and, running over a trash pile, upset the press. Mr Graves eaught it in an effort to pre vent its falling, but it was too heavy for him to hold up, and it fell, strik ing his left leg and ankle, inflicting g unful wounds, from which Mr raves has been laid up since. He is, fortunately, not seriously injured and will be at his post in a few days, THIRD WEEK JURORS- The following jurors were ing jurors were drawn today at noon For the third week of court to convene Nov 29th.
