The Savings Bank.
The savings bank has not been open
ed for business earlier on account of the
ill-health of Mr. Jno. B. Carwile, who
was elected cashier.
Much to the regret of the directors,
Mr. Carwile has tendered his resigna
tion as he fears his health will not per
mit himto attend to the duties of the
office.
A meeting of the directors was held
on Tuesday when Capt. R. H. Wright
was elected cashier, and now the bank
will open for business in a short time,
possibly by the first of June.

There have been several changes re
eutly in the schedules and the trains
>u the railroads. Some of these have I
been already mentioned in The Herald
.nd News.
The Anderson train now stops at I
Prosperity and passes Newberry in the
morning at 8.30. The schedule in the
fternoon is unchanged.
The passenger train on the C. N. &
L. now runs through from Clinton to 1
olumbia, passing Newberry at the c
~ae time as heretofore. This train is t
.n charge of Capt. Gailliard. He, how- '
ever, is now on a trip to Mexico and t
Da!ifornia and his place is being filled
:emporarily by Capt. Burnhami. This a
:rain does not carry a mail train but
.kes pouches from Newberry to Clin- t
on and to Columbia carrying mail for r
bhose places and points beyond. The
'reight on this road still runs on the
tame schedule between Columbia and
Newberry. It is in charge of Capt. B. 3
'. Turner. A mail car has been put on
hi train and the postal clerk is a negro I
rom about Fishdam in Union County
y the name of Rice. A change in the r
chedule of this train is expected to go
nto effect next Sunday. Just what (
he schedule will be has not been made 6
nown, but it is probable that it will
eave Columbia early in the mnorng b
od return late in the afternoon. It o
vill run through to Clinton. This will v
>e a good schedule if it is adopted. By t
t we will have a regular early mail 6
ro Columbia.

mious Choice of Stock Holders.
Mluch interest has been felt as to
Who would succeed Colonel Hammiet t
it presidaut of Piedmont factory. The
iaimes of several gentlemen have been
:iient.ioned, and the meeting yesterday
excited more comment and speculation
han any former assenibly of the stock
holders.
The importance of this meeting
,aused a full representation of the
tock. There was great unanimity in
he election of officers and directors, and
he selection seems to meet the approval
>f those who know the men and are
uterested in the mill. The following
are the officers and directors:
R. L. McCaughrin, of Newberry,
?resid.-nt ; Hamlin Beattie, of Green
rille, vice-President.

raig.
The present clerical force was re
lected. President McCaughrin did
ot definitely accept the position, tak
ng sixty days for consideration. If
te accepts he will move to Greenville.
Appropriate resolutions concerning
olonel Hammett were presented and
vill be given to the press at. a later
ay.
There is general pleasure and satis
Iction over the selection of president.
olonel McCaughrin is well known in
xreenville as a business man of distin
uished ability and a valuable citizen,
nd Greenville people congratulate
hemselves on the prospect of having
im and his family as residents of the
ity.-Greenville News, 14th.
reAld and News called to see
11r. McCaughrin on Monday, u
leclined to talk for publication in re
ard to his election oras to what would
>ossibly be '.dg decision further than to
ay that he had not yet made up his
tiind as to what would be his decision.
3e had the matter under considera
ion, and had been given sixty days
vithin which to give a definite an
wer, and he did not knowyet what he
vould determine.
The offer is a very flattering one and
,omes unsought to Mr. Mc&ughrin.
ft brings with it a decided increase in
alary and lighter work.
If Mr. McCaughrin should determine
:o accept, it would necessitate his re
inoval to Greenville and it would be
luite a loss to Newberry. His place
vould be hard to fill. It is to be hoped
hat he can find it consistent with his

Cotton planting is about over with

a great deal of complaint about bad
stands on the early planting.
Corn is looking well, and thestand is

A. Werts, and the last account we had
from him he was getting better.

>f woman l ""tl of trouble." The
boys in the army useu L ." i
>f few days and short rations." My
rations were not as short as some peo
ple's pocket books, but my trouble was
>f the highest order. Firstly, our cook,
after having served faithfully for thir
teen months, and in the mean time
putting on about fifty pounds to her
vodupoise. concluded that she would
racata for a while-would rest a week
>r so-in fact, she said she believed
that she was taking the dropsy. Well
I knew the nature of her dropsy very
well. The true cause of her corpu
lency was the regular dropping of all
>urlicietlt quantities of good, rich ra
tions into her gastric organ. My larger
half and I concluded that we could get
ilong for a while at least, provided
that I would give her such little assist
ince as making the coff'e, frying ham
tud steak, bringing the water, getting
:he stove wood, (oh, for something to
ake the place of cutting stove wood)
tttend to the baking of biscuit, getting
nilk, scour the knives and forks, feed
ng the chickens, killing the chickens,
,ooking hominy, pealing potatoes, boil
ngeggs, sweeping the kitchen, washing
lishes-horrible thought-I wouldn t
vaslh dishes in the army,-and divers
>ther little etceteras known only to
ood house wives. I signed the con
ract and all things moved along
wimminglyfora few days,when anoth
r "wave of trouble rolled across my
ot peaceful breast." My "schwartzy"
orter concluded to take in the centen
]ial, whether I was willing or not, and
tway be went, and now that porter is
ent-ennially away. In addition to the
foresaid duties named, of the old
ook in the kitchen, the new duties
f porter and wvaiter nowv devolve
ipon this feeble frame of mine.
['he trains must be met, the drummers
mnd drummers baggage brought to the

ny legs trembled worse than they did
t Gettysburg or Chicamauga. The

corched, the coff'ee p)ut in the tea-pot

hicken too brown, the steak burned

offee and the tea set on the wrong side

'ften said that four years of dreadful
car was enough for me. Not any
nore in nine, but really I prefer a
mall, very small, skirmish, to the
