Pifer had sent in h:s re' ignation as priacipal of the Feintle Acadnw, to the Board of Trutees,would be received by the people of Newberry with general regret. Such is the fact, however. Capt. Pifer has ably fi!!ed hi= present po,ition as principal of this school for the past seventeen years, and] wa: universally beloved by pupils and p-trents. Schol arly, gentlemanly, polite, courteous, kind, and withal a most exedllent teacher, his place will be hard to fill. His reasons for resigning are twofol,l: He finds his health not as good' as it was, and his pecuniary interests in Vir ginia require more time of him than he could give, and teach at the same time. The Board of Trustees will hold a meeting the early part of next week to take action on the resignation.

Last Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and or several days previous, were among he hottest days ever experienced in cewberry. Mr. Ed. Scholtz kept a -ecord of the maximum and minimum emperature on his self-registering ther nometer. The thermometer was against :he wall in his store. The following is .he record for the past week as shown y this thermometer: Maximum. Minimum. fly 15....................S:1 ...- - - --...........

Mr. 5choitzs store is probably one of the !oolest places to be found. Mr. Scholtz's heimometer ran up on one occasion to 20 in the sun at 11 o'clock. If this weather had lasted much longer onsiderable damage would have been lone the crops, not for want of rain, but he heat was so very excessive. By reference to our news columns it vill be found that the hot weather was ,eneral, and in some places a large runber of deaths resulted. In Colum )ia there were six deaths from the heat. This spell was broken, however, on [',esday afternoon by a general rain. L'he rain here was very hard, and there vas some wind, and lightning struck in everal places, but we have heard of no erious damage. The rain was general-all along the inc of the C. & G. R. R. from Colum )ia, and in all portions of the county rom which we have heard. In the ower portion of the county around Po naria there seemed to have been consid rable wind and very hard rain, as the orn in many places was blown down tnd the lands considerably washed. The steeple of the A. R. P. church Lt Newberry was struck by the lightning vhile the W. C. T. U. was in session. ut slight damage was done the church, tad none of the large number of chil Iren in the church were hurt, but fear ully frightened. The rod on the church vas broken and has been in this condi ion for nearly a year, and was the ause of the church being struck. One of the cow sheds at the Innis allen Dairy Farm was also struck and lown down, but no one was hurt, al hough there were several cows in the talls at the tine. A sweetgum .tree on Mrs. Motte's )lace was struck. At Jalapa a tree in the yard of Mr. W. 3. Sligh was struck by the lightning, Lnd also a tree in the yard of Mr. W. L.

Disordered iver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and wonderful things in existence. It is easily put out of o der. Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, i-reguar habits, and many other things which ought not to be, have made the American people a nation of dyspeptics. But Green's August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business and making the American peo ple so healthy that they can enjoy their meals and be happy. Remember :-No happee=s without ealth. But Green's Augu-t Flov er brings health and happiness to the dys peptic. Ask your druggist for a bottle. Seventy-five cent~. 7-6-it. PROSPERIT'Y. Mrs. N. B.

We have just been sweltering in th; intensitied heat. Chicago and other places have been complaining of the heat at 97o and 9S4 Fahirenhcit,when we have been reyaling ourselves in an at mosphere with the mercury registering 10.10-107 *, and no =unstroke. The reports coming in this morning show that the rains yesterday were gen eral. Jn some places the lands are bad ly washed. Strong winds and electrie disturbances accompanied the rains, though we have heard of no serious damage. G. B. Cromer, Esq., of Newberry, de livered a most excellent address before the Y. M. C. A. at this place, on Sunday night in Grace Church. The adddre-s throughout was replete in profound thought, and notwithstanding the in tense heat the audience was good, and all expressed themselves as highly pleased.

The readers of the HERALD AND NEWS do not accuse us of lying straight out, but they do accuse us of handling the truth rather indifler ently. However, we are calm and se rene. Yesterday evening we were relieved from the oppressive heat by a glorious rain. The mercury fell about ;0 de rees, and oh how good we feel All nature seems to smile with gratitude to the Great GIver of these glorious rains, nd yet some men do not render thanks o God for these blessings, but rather ook upon it simply as God discharging duty which He owee man, and they seem to think that He is under obliga tions to man to send the "early and lat ter rains," and that if lhe does not send hese timely rains that HIe is not tilling Iis share of the contract. How per erse and ungratefuli is man. We are under obligations to Dr J. W. Folk, of Annandale, for a box of very large turtle eggs. The Dr. did not send s a recipe for preparing these eggs, ence they were a sort of an elephant n our bands. We tried boiling them in fresh water, and then remembering that these turtles are salt-water amphibians, we tried boiling the eggs in salt wvater, nt with the same result. T1he yolk woud boil "done," but the white seems perfectly impervious to heat. We tri-d frying these "cooter" eggs, but in this we signally failed-the blasted things wouldn't fry worth a cent. We stil persevered and experimented with the "cooter aigs," and our next attempt was at an omelet-a "cooter aig" omelet. In this we stucceeded right wvell, and in this manner we disposed of the "cooter aigs," much to the amusement of thec madame and the children. Rlemember that all these eft'orts were made ina stove room, wvhen the thermometer reg istered 1040 in the cool shade. We pity our poor wives and sisters and daughzter. who have to do the cooking all through ths swelterinzg weather. We men ough to have them cook less and help themr more. Thanks, Dr., for the "coote1 aigs," but we wvould prefer the ' coter "besef." Next time you send out yomn mdicines, Dr., scud the dirreions along. Two Carth2 Cures of Poison Oak.

ICepiy to Capt. Sii;h from -Dutc Forker. EDITOR HERALD AND NEWS:-IIn ur i--ue of June .30 you charge, by in mation rece:ved, that the convicts at Penitentiary are required to do va us kinds of work on Sunday, &c., &c. ken as a whole, all you charge is true. they never have hauled wood, all rer kinds of work have been done on nday. Sunday seems to be the day to pply the Lexington farm or stockade th provisions by boat from Columbia landing, and from there, by wagon on mre day, to quarters. On July 3 they were killing hogs, Lcp, &c., and fixing them up for the i. This, I suppose, is claimed as a ces;iiy, as the fourth came on 31on v. Other barbecues were given on 4th, and one not exceeling a mile m the stockada, and everything for it , done on Monday. :1, to the citizens of the Fork having y ill feelings towards Capt. Sligh or 1. Li;psconib, Ispeak "advisedly" when :IV they have none. [' Capt. Sli,h exonerates Col. Lips ub of all blame in this, then the pub knows who is to blame, if any one. :n short, if all the work of various ids that is performed by convicts on inay was done by citizens, the Peni itiary would be overflowing with them violating the law. V.ecording to the Yews and Courier :I the Columbia Iegister the charges .de by you, through your informant, Ve been found by the Penitentiary rectors to be without "foundation or t." I say this, that if hauling supplies the farm in Lexington is without t, then there is no foundation in at you charge. It being a case necessity, I suppose makes a case ;lout foundation or fact. This case necessity-by which convicts are rked on Sunday-has existed for rs; not now and then, but the Sun work is done continually. "Oh! isistency, thon art a jewel." DUTCH FORKER.

I applied to a physician at once I his treatment caine near killing me. mployed an old physician and then nt to Ky. I then went to Hot Springs I remnainedl two months, but nothing mxed to cure me permanently, al ugh temporary relief was given me. condition grew worse and I applied t noted quack, but I did not imp)rove. ien used a preparation which was -cribed "gratis," but it contained too chi alcohol and aggravated my suffer - s. I then placed myself under the atment of a noted Nashville physi n and for a time was benetitted, but fall I returned home a ruined man sically and financially, with but lit prospects of ever getting well. My nev being exhausted, 1 did not know at ~to do- In May, 1885, my mother suaded mc to get a bottle of B. B. B.. ide in A tlanta) and I did so to gratify 'but to my atter astonishment I had tin ished the first bottle before every er had been healed. 'o the present time J have used live :tles and have received more benefit n from all the rest combined; and I satistied that B. B. B. is the most nderful blood purifier ever before own, and I urge all afflicted young ni to try one single bottle and be eon ied. I can truly say I think it the at medicine in the world. Z. T.
