Coantry CorreKpondeuce.
Our readers will have noted
In our last two issues a slight
dearth of country correspond
ence. Just at present we will
not complain, but we want the
people to do better for-us a little
later.

Unfurished boarding house,
containing 7 bed-rooms, large
dining-room, spacious pantry
and kitchen. Lights and water
in the house, Irresponsible par

W. E. Arledge, Camden, S. C.
wants to reut or lease a tive or
six horse farm, -with good house,
burns and stables, land wooded
and watered.

personally.
A Quaint Conceit.
It is a quaint conceit of ours
that along our peculiar lines we
can do things a little better than
the other fellow. Subscribe to
The People, read it, and if you
arnve at the conclusion that, we
are not warranted in entertain
ing this comfortable feeling, stop
your subscription.
Woodmen Picnic.
The Several lodges of the Co
lumbia Woodmen of the World
will picnic with jis on to-day.
They will he accompanied by a
lurge number of ladies. We
hope they will have a good time.
A Committee from our local
lodge of Woodman will probably
meet the excursionists and dc
the polite.
fTlie Sick.
We are glad to announce that
fill our sick are recovering. Wo
did not liave as many as usual
this year, which speaks well for
the vigilance of our Board of
Health. There are one or two
little things to which we will
direct the attention of the Board
later, but Hot now. The season
is growing late. Summer sick
ness has by this time all devel
oped, and no deaths have oc
curred by disease.
Job Work.
We cannot too emphatically
eraphacize a recommendation of
our Job work." We have the
machines to do it with, the best
job printer* in the city to do it,
and the type and material with
which it must be done. Bring
it in. Small jobs are given the
name or more careful attention
than large ones, for, '?Great
trees from little acorns grow,"
and when we are once tried, we
are afterwards never denied, and
wo areulways willing to be tried
again.
TIm Price of Cotton.
As wejexpected, the price of
Cotton is at present lower than
at the opening of the season, but
that need not discoumge those
who can afford to hold their crop,
or at least a part of it. Our pre
diction is that it will bring fifteen
cents or better by the middle of
February. In justification of
this prediction, we i>oiut you to
Hester's Annual Report. If you
haven't it, we have. It is too
long for publication in our limit
ed space, but we will be glad to
show and expiuin it to auy inter
ested party.

Improvement* on Property.
Owing to the fact that our auto
mobile has not yet reached us,
that we are afraid of a horse,
and that our bicycle is sadly in
need ot repairs, we have not been
able to get around and note the
many signs of improvements on
property that have been effected
of late. We may mention how
everr that the splendid mansion
of Hon. M. L. Smith is about
completed, and Mr. J. B. Mont
gomery has completed arrange
ment for the erection of a nice
buildiug on East,Mill Street.
Cultivate Sociability.
We have not lately been much
of a figure in social gatherings,
partly we guess that wo could
not if we would, and also because
the stern realities of life have
borne rather heavily on us for a
number of months which made
the field of social enjoyments
posted grounds.
We had such a good time how
ever the other night at the house
of a neighbor that we think we
will hereafter "take the good
the gods provpide" throw dull
care uside, and enjoy ourselves.
That Horse Race, from "Ben
Hur" rendered on the piano by
Mrs. ? was magnificent, and
could only be equalled by the
rendering of the old song we
mentioned to a young lady by
whose side we happened to be
sitting at the time.

IN MKMOKIUM.
Died at the parsonage on Lyt
t.leton Street on Tuesday, the
151th inst, Reverend A. R Earle,
the beloved pastor of the Metho
dist church, after a protracted
and painful illness. In his death,
the religious denomination with
which he was connected has lost
a valued member; the State and
city a much honored cit z ?n; Mas
onry, one of its brightest lights,
and all with whom lie came in
contact, a friend.
No more will his pleasant and
persuasive voice be heard sink
ing the praises of the God he
loved and served so well. It now
rings triumphant in the Heaven
ly choir. No more will his earn
est appeals to the giver of all
good be heard by lis in supplica
tion for Divine forgiveness of
the sins of weak and erring mor
tals. They are now addressed
to The Great Presence itself.
No more in its earthly body will
his great heart beat responsive
to every c?ll for relief, It is
stilled forever, but reincarnated,
has been sweetly gathered into
the loving bosom of his Savior.
All peace is his, for in him we
saw 110 guile, and those are the
choicest spirits who surround
the throne of God.
Mr. Karle died in the bloom of
life, he being only thirty-nine
years of age. lie leaves a wife
and eight children to mourn his
loss.
To the grief stricken widow
and children we extend deepest
sympathy and mourn with tliein,
for in A. 15. Eurle wo had a val
ued friend.
The funeral servicoswere con
ducted on yesterday (Wodnes
day) evening at 4 o'clock at the
Methodist church, and the re
mains interred in the Camden
cometary with Masonic honor.

?Messrs. Isaac Hough and
Eadie McCreight have returned
from the bard fought field of
Manassas, j
?Mr. W. M. Hinson, now of
Cheraw was in the city a few
honrs this week.
I ?Mr. E. M. Hendrix who is
' now located in Sumter, has been
-spending a few days with his
family, and incidentally deciding
the fate ot several candidates
?Mr. Wallace Bruce left us on
Tuesday to enter Erskine Col
lege at Due West. Wallace is a
fine fellqw, and we hope that he
will distinguish himself.
?Maj. St R. Adams has re
turn ad from an extended visit to
friends and relatives nt St. Paul
and Minneapolis. He ap|*ears
greatly improved in health from
his vacation.
?Mr. Jas. T. Burdell has, we
are glad to say, recovered from
his recent indisposition, and is
again holding down his work at
the power house.
?Mr. R. Y. Steedman is to be
congratulated on having one of
the few dogs that can take the

tion day somewhat enlivened
what was otherwise a rather
tame affair.

turned from Columbia after a
visit to his wife, who, we regret
to say is in the hospital there.
BREVITIES.
PERSONAL
?See Nathan Levy's uew ad.
in this issue. He is a one-priced
man: i n 1 carries a good stock,
besides being a good fellow.
?Sweet bacon is a pretty fair
disli, but chicken and dumpling
to our taste discount it. Don't
some of our subscribers want to
pay up their subscription to us
by bringing iu a fried chicken?
?We call particular attention
to the ad. of "The CJilt Edge"
store. Mr. Villepigue is one of
our oldest and best, merchants.
Look at liis *r>.00 gift offer, and
act accordingly.
?Painters and carpenters we
have always with us but they
coutiuue to come. Mr. 1*. S.
Mayers has our congraulatious on
the addition to his family of a
fine girl, and Mr. O. M. Fort on
the arrival at his house of a teu
pound boy.
?When a man is beaten in a
politacul race, conducted under
our present system of nomina
tion, he generally has to stay
beat. Our motto under adverse
circumstances is "This also shall
pass awa.v, "and we hope and be
lieve that we have seen the last
of the sickening system of nom
inations now prevailing.
?If we have the space to spare
we will re-publish our premium
offer in this issue. If not, re
member that we give many valu
able premiums to the getters up
of clubs of subscribers. There
is not a single neighborhood that
we can think of where a club of
at least ten cannot bo secured.
Work for The People and we will
work still harder for you.
?Mr. A. D. Kennedy's ad. in I
tliis issue is full of meat. He
stayed with us all summer, which
is a good sign. Head the ad., J
rolled on it, a:id act on it.
?Many thanks to all for their
kind words about The People
last week. It ought to have been
good as the reaction after we got
it out put us in bed for a day
afterward. So much politics,
religeon and business crammed
into one week's work was just a
little too much for our seusitive
orgauism.
?Tlio Hub ad is not as large
as usual, but is equally as inter
esting to buyers, Pont overlook
it. \Ve want all the people to
make money this siason and all
seasons, but especially those
among them who are helping to
feed the baby.
?Head our editorial this week
I on ??THE POPULAR WILL."
We think you will find something
In it that will interest you. Do
not take snap judgement for we
have more to follow that will
strengthen the position we have
taken. Our present system of
nominating candidates for office
should be abolished instunter, or
sooner.
?Two years of rest froin the
toils and ]>erils of local politics.
Look out o* us nextime. We
liavo not ju ?t yet decided what
we will want politically, but we
ate fully convinced from the
flabby state of our pocket book
that we want money now.

?We advise the losers cm last
Tuesday to take heart, of grace
and sing low for awhile. You
have no cause to be ashamed of
your vote received then. Just,
saw wood and say nothing. We
know how it- feels, but there is
another time coming.
?Mr. David Wolfe has a very
attractive ad. with us. Whatev
er Dave says in a business way,
espocially, is so. Read the ad.
carefully.
?We extend congratulations
to the winners in the primaries on
Tuesday. May they live long
and prosper, and may they also
justify by Ihoir conduct of the of
fic.es to which they have been
nominated, tho confidence of
those who gave them the nomin
ation.
?A tabulated statement of
election returns, a bank, or any
corporation statement, must be
correct if it appears in our col
umns. You will perhaps see a
slight difference in the election
returns in The People this week
than in that published in our two
local conteni|K?raries, but ours is
correct, ana if it dosen't go
against, your conscience, you can
swear to it as such.
?All our advertisers are good
people. This is not saying this
there are not others who are
good people, but the others
would be better and richer peo
ple if tliov nbvertised in The
People.* This is no joke.
