C. sMALLOx IN THE COUNTY Dr. Langford has reported to Super visor Tennant that there was a case of smallpox in his community near Blythewood. It is said that the man with the disease escaped from the pest house in Columbia and came to Blythe wood. The escapes from Columbia are reported frequently. We do not know whether the numerous escapes reported are true or not, but it has been charged repeatedly that there has been lack of rigidity'and strictneas in the effort to control the disease in Co lumbia. If the disease is not stamped out soon, it will spread over the whole State. Every day some one comes to Winnsboro from Columbia. It might be economy to [quarantine against Columbia, and do it thoroughly. The wonder is that smallpox has not al ready made its appearanee here. Only a few days ago a gentleman reported a case at Blairs on the Spar tanburg and Union railroad. -Come and Pee on stock before you buy: Chamber suits, parlor suits, woven wire springs, extension tables, wood seat chairs, cane seat chairs, leather seat rocking chairs, reed rock ing chairs, mattresses, bedsteads, bu reaus, washstands, wardrobes, cradles, desks, lounges, side-boards, towel racks, leaf tables, center tables.

After] e entered the town hall the doors I were locked. Mr. D. A. Crawford acting as intendant administered an oath to Mr. Meyers, and Mr. Meyers, then stated what he knew about the fire about as follows: That he left his store about fifteen minutes after ten, and went to his roomn at the hotel. His first knowledge of the fire was the sound of the fire bell. Several other parties were examined. < It is learned that council was unable to fix the resp onsibility for the fire. As it is generally known over the streets, it might as .well be published that there is some suspicion thatC Meyers had something to do with the fire on Saturday night. PROHIBITION MEETING. As is well known to everyone, the prohibitionists of the Democratic party of South Carolina, have concluded that the time for the adoption of their policy for the troatment of the liquor problem, is now at hand. In carrying out their plans, the prohibition con vention held recently in Colombia, has nominated a full state ticket to be voted for at the primaries. The mem >er of the State Executive Committee from each county, is charged with the duty of organizing the forces for pro hbiion in his county. The unctersigned has beeu appointed a member of the executive committee from this county. In discharging my :uty as a- member of said committee for Fairfield County, I now call a mass meeting, of all who are in sympathy with prohibition, in the court house in Winsboro on Saturday, May 14th, at 12 o'clock. We wish to have a full representation from every neighbor hood and voting precinct in the county. Will not every friend of the cause see that his community is represented? C. E. McDonald. Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Enstachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you- have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unles the inflamma tion can be taken out and this tube be restored to its normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever, nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is no'hing but an infiamed con dition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars or any case of Deafness (caused by catarr) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circa lars, free. F. J. CHENEY k CO., Toledo, 0.

April 30th. Judging from the universal esteenm and affection with which he was re garded by all in this community, 1 should think there would be many in his old home who are interested in his career, and will read of his death with sad hearts; especially his comrades who served with him in the last war. He felt a deep interest in his old home, and always read THE NEWS AND HZRALV carefully. "Wife give me my letter from home," was usually the way he asked for his paper. As a boy, he was a member of the Fairfield Rifles. At the first call for troops he enlisted with the 1st S. C. Tolunteers, served with them six months, and then joined the 12th, Maxcy Gregg, Colonel. He saw the first gun fired at Sumter, and con tinned in steady service (though se' yerely wounded, from which he saf fered up to his death,) and was made prisoner at Appamattox aid sent to Harts Isla nd. After the war he came to Mississippi, located in Bolivar, where he lived, beloved by all who kr.ew him. R. H. Buckley. G u:nison, Miss., May 8, 1898. For Over Fifty Years.. MRs.
