Stephens Family Reunion According to previous an nouncement the children and grandchildren, with s e v e r a l friends, met at the domicile of Mr. and Mrs. Marion Stephens, a few miles west of Six Mile, on the 7th instant, to celebrate the 58th birthday of Mrs. Stephens. A fter singing several soul-stir ring hymns, which was led by Bro. W. J. Rampey, Rev. B. C.

Thomas Pace of th< Nit. Carmel section, Rev.Ch arlie Atkinson, Bro. Stephens and one ther brother whose name we failed to get. Dinner was then spread in the zrove and everyone invited to make themselves at home. Af ter everybody had eaten all they wanted there was enough left tc have fed the crowd again. Bro. Stephens was born an( partly raised where Mr. James Mullinix now lives, which is be tween Oentral and Norris. H< then moved from there to An derson and from Anderson t< Williaiston and from William ston to where he now lives, it 1877, ani has lived there eve since. He has plenty of every thing around him to live on.an believes in adhering to that par of the Scripture which say "First seek yc the kingdom o heaven and it righteousness an< all thitigs shall be added tint< thee." Brotier and Sister Stephem have been marnied 36 years Their union has been blessed with eight children., all of whon: re living., and 26 grandchildren, Their lives have been blessed and they seem to have had good luck in eve.ry respect with one exception. About ten years agt a mule ran away with Brothei Stephens and crippled him,fron: the effects of which he has nevei been able to do any real hard work since. Ml ay these t wo old people liv< to sece miany more birthdays ani maiay their declining days be theil happiest ones is ou-r prayer.

Allen, who has been visit ing different towns in Pickens county for the past month and who claims to be a preacher, detective, German spy, umbrel la niender, etc., etc., at last wore out his welcome and has landed in the county jail. Sev eral weeks ago Allen was invit ed by the city authorities to leave Pickens. It seems thati he went from Pickens to Easley, where lie was also politely ask ed to leave. He left Easley and visited Liberty and Norris, where the citizens did not seem' to cotton to him and he return ed to Easley. Upon his return to Easley he was given two hours by a policeman to leave town. Allen did not like this even a little bit, an( from all re ports he pulled off a stunt which caused a suspicion that he was Jess Willard travelling in dis guise, but with several healthy punches concealed about his per son. He engaged the policenian in a fistic encounter in which both participants were somie what bruised Witnesses say no ordinary man would stand a show in a fist fight with this fellow Allen and he badly worst ed the representative of the law. Others came to the law's aid and the unwelcome visitor was landed in jail.
