She was buried on Monday at St. Marks. Edgefield County. f A child of Mr. Price of Prosperity,died b on the 14th instant, of diphtheria. r Mr. John T. Halman, formerly of Hele- t na, died at Hickory, N. C., on the 10th instant. Mr. Halman was the brother-in- p law of Mrs. Win. Zobel, of Helena. d it Fire. The work shops of Mr. J. Z. Salter, near Vaughnville. in the upper portion e of this County, were destroyed by fire on Monday night of this week. The tools ._and material of Mr. Salter were,all lost. eyeral buggies there for repairs were Jso lost. The tire is supposed-to be of in ndiary crigin. t me'ublic Park. h ttI*ceRberry should no longer be with- r ;t a park. We have lost several oppor nities, and before it is too late we abould secure a suitable locality. Per- S haps no better place, could it be obtain ed, presents itself than the basin of ' Scott's Creek. on the south-west side of r the depot. It would make a superb park, upon the plan of the Columbia park. -Terraced, with winding-walks, r shade trees, fountains and rustic seats, Newberry would then have a park which. in point of attractiveness, would have C but few to excel it. Overlooked from the railroad embankment, the prospect would be inviting. Shade Trees. f One of the distinguishing features -perhaps the most attractive-of the cities C and towns that are thought to be the most handsome, is that whose streets are lined with shade trees. They not E only ornament, they improve the sanita- t ry condition. It is a well known fact t that the air of populous cities contains less ozone than the suburban parts. t Hence it is that trees and aromatic vege- t tation act as atmospheric purifiers. The Bucalyptus globulus,which emits campho- t raceous antiseptic vapors, is said to coun teract atmospheric poison and thereby p destroy malaria. The wanton destruction u of trees is to be regretted. The planting n of a shade tree is an act worthy of ap- d plause ; it is a blessing to posterity. As the setting out of shade trees is compara tively inexpensive, and the pleasure and benefit derived, incalculable. may we not reasonably hope that the day is not very far in the future, when N ew berry shall have all her streets and ave nues lined with beautiful shade tlees. The Dry Weather Moistened. It has been nearly three months since we have had anything.ike a rain. Frost t nor clouds af'ected a cliange. The la'st e rain fell -in August, and you could dig e maiyfeet into the earth and fnd it diry as a bone. It is nzot at all surprising that many wells of water should run low. It is of serious moment to the farmerswho cannot ~sow~ their grain. Of late years h, the rainfall has been irregular and un- o certain in maniy parts of the earth-phe- p nomeually so, and has given -serious v trouble. Tihe clouds of dust that filledl the e air day by day, to say nothing of the In,- p jury done to fine goods, was verv i: injurious to the general health. In k the business parts of the town the dust a has be.-n almo-t suffocating. It is ui to be hoped that another year may not p fiud our town without a water-eart to I< sprinkle the stre ts. And now that the b sp.-ll has been broken and the dust l:ii:11k low by a gentle shower on Tu .cday fi night, we are grateful to a ki.ad Provi- p d (ence, hoping that the farmers maiy now y speed the plow to their satisfactioni. The Coffee House. The coffee house condcuee: by the Ia- b dies of the W. C. T.

This is a consoumation we have been~ working fossone our idlentillention with the County. and we are truly glad to see it accomplishaed.-Clare.den En f only should eachecrg he paid ciihl; they should be better paid. The work of ths conscientious teacher is niot easy, as many would suppose-the pathway a is not strews with nOWers. Parents are not always co-workOrs with the teacherx, , as they shonld be in the education antd e discipilne of the children, and in sus raining the morale of the school, but too often inconsiderately take sides with i disobedient and rebellions children, to their lasting hurt, 1Many a faithf ul and devoted teacheri has perhiph, in secret, shed bitteF tearS for reeiving cold in, Il gratitude instead of sympathy ini their . tl4bor of love.'

Th': S.itttr <day night will be to the-n a time of fnil ba"kets, of pleasant homes, of cheerful wives, of bright, happy children. Sat~r day night has ever been in oar niind a time of enjoyment. there is more of cheer on that night than any other. Father has brought home some little or big extra as his ue:an.s allow, sonethi:ng for the Sabbath. The little boy perhaps is made glad with a pair of red-topped boots, the little girl with something equally as precious to her heart ; how their eyes sparkle, how pleas 'l i< th; mother, what a good father and hutsband they have. He, too, is pleased at what he has done. S-iturday ttight i o thetm is indeed a joyful time. Ta tho.san:is it, is the same. Plea-ant though= cinter around Saturday night. how iny of them have we enjoyed, our tho ights run back to boyhood's days. S:ttrday night was a time of all times then,i.,ther's in ttience and pr.senice wa- felt then, every preparationi was nadt- f,,:- the Sub ba'Ih, everything th:t oild Ipo-. ibly he don*e that night was dlon:-,l~ ha taog might he ita the way of Go is ::ly.
