We notice that the business nun of Aiken have employed a brass hand to play on the streets from three until lx o'clock on Saturday afternoons. This is not anew idea as it lias been in practice many years in the north; but it Is an excellent one, and one that will do the to am lots of good ir. many ways. The money expended in this way brings In large returns and puts the whole town in a cheerful mood Why not Batcsburg merchants adopt thia measure? now that cotton will ooo be coming in and tiade brightening up. The Mlddleburg band can (ire the music and the merchants will contribute. J L J1- 1- SOMETHING MUST BE DONE. A matter of great importance is now confronting our citizens; it is anorj power for electric lighting pur puees. For the past few months our' power has been entirely inadequate to upply the demand, and inconsequence our lights have been far from what tbey should be. When the street lamps ore burning the incandescent lights In the Mores and dwelling are so dim tbat it la almost impossible to read by anything )e?s than a twenty candle power, wben a sixteen should give all tbw light desired.
