There have been several changes re eently in the schedules and the trains on the railroads. Some of these have been already mentioned in The Herald and News. The Anderson train now stops at Prosperity and passes Newberry in the morning at 8.30. The schedule in the afternoon is unchanged. The passenger train on the C. N. & L. now runs through from Clinton to Columbia, passing Newberry at the same time as heretofore. This train is in charge of Capt. Gailliard. He, how ever, is nowv on a trip to Mexico and California and his place is being filled temporarily by Capt. Burnham. Tins train does not carry a mail train but takes pouches from New berry to Clin ton and to Columbia carrying mail for those places and points beyond. The freight on this road still rt'ns on the same schedule between Columbia and New berry. It is in charge of Capt. B. F. Turner. A mail car has been put on this train and the postaliclerk is anegro from about Fishdam in Union County y thbe name of Rice. A change ii :,he Schedule of this train is expected to go into effect next Sundlay. Just what the schedule will be has not been made known, but it is probable that it will leave Columbia early in the mormiag and return late in th'e afternoon. It will run thrr ugh to Clinton. This wil be a good schedule if it is adopted. By it we will have a regular early miail from Columbia. We have just opened a fresh stock of Buist's Celebrated aar den Seed. Remember, it is im possible for you to have a good garden unless you plant good seed. Buist's Seeds have had a national reputation for fifty odd years.

Much interest has been felt as to who would succeed Colonel Rammett at presidaut of Piedmont factory. The names of several gentlemen have been mentioned, and the meeting yesterday excited more comment and speculation than any former assembly of the stock holders. 'The importance of this meeting caused a full representation of the -ock. There was great unanimity in the election of officers and directors, and the selection seems to meet the approval of those who 1:now the men and are interested in the mill. The following are the oflicers and directors: R. L. McCaughrin, of Newberry, Presid'-nt ; Hamlin Beattie, of Green ville, vice-President. Directo s: F. J. Pelzer, Hamlin Beattie, J. L. Orr, T. Q. Donaldson, R. L. McCaughrin, Somerfield Baldwin, J. N. Martin, J. P. Kennedy, S. A. Craig. The present clerical force was re elected. President McCaughrin did not definitely accept the position, tak ing sixty days for consideration. If he accepts he will move to Greenville. Appropriate resolutions concerning Colonel Hammett were presented and will be given to the press at a later day. There is general pleasure and satis faction over the selection of president. Colonel McCaughrin is well known in Greenville as a business man of distin guished ability and a valuable citizen, and Greenville people congratulate themselves on the prospect of having him and his family as residents of the city.-Greenville News, 14th. The Herald and News called to see Mr. McCaughrin on Monday, but he declined tp talk for publication in re ;ard to his election oras to what would possibly be his decision further than to say that he had not yet made up his mind as to what would be his decision. He bad the matter under considera tion, and had been given sixty days within which to give a definite an swer, and he did not knowyet what he would determine. The offer is a very flattering one and comes unsought to Mr. McCaughrin. It brings with it a decided increase in salary and lighter work. If Mr. McCaughrin should determine to accept., it would necessitate his re moval to Greenville and it would be quite a loss to Newberry. His place would be hard to fill. It is to be hoped that he can find it consistent with his best interests to decline the offer and to determine to remain with us in New berry. So-Da-lightful.

The Cotton Seed,Oii Mill. A meeting of the stockholders of the Newberry Cotton Seed Oil Mill and Fertilizer Company will be held this afternoon in Council Chambers. The object of the meeting is to consider the advisability of putting in a ginnery in connection with the mill. It is very probable that the stoekholders will decide to make the imnprovemrent. The proposed improvement will cost about N4,500) and will be of the latest and most improved machinery. A bale of cotton can be ginned in fifteen minutes without handling the seed cotton at all. It will be a step forward and there is no doubt the stockholders will decide to make this improvement. Pickles ! Pickles!! Pickles!!!

Last week this correspondent was left in the soup, and left in realistic soup, when I began to realize to the fullest extent that "man that is born of w:omhan is full of trouble." The boys in the army used to say "man is of few (lays and short ra:ions." My rations were not as short as some peo ple's pocket books, but my trouble was of the highest or?ter. Firstly, ourcook, after having served faith tully for thir teen months, and in the mean time putting on about fifty pounds to her avodupoise. concluded that she would vacata for a while-would rest a week or 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 sutticient quantities of good, rich ra tions into her gastric organ. My larger half and I concluded that we could get along for a while at least, provided that I would give her such little assist ance as making the coffee, frying ham and steak, bringing the water, getting the stove wood, (oh, for something to take the place of cutting stove woodi attend to the baking of biscuit, get ting milk, scour the knives and forks, feed ing the chickens, killing the chickens, cooking hominy, pealing potatoes, boil ingeggs, sweeping the kitchen, washing dishes-horrible thought-I wouldn t wash dishes in the ariny,-and livers other little etceteras known only tc good house wives. I signed the con tract and all things moved along swimminglyfor a few days,when anoth er "wave of trouble rolled across iy not peaceful breast." My "schwartzy porter concluded to take iv the centen nial, whether I was willing or not, and away he went, and now that porter it sent-en nially away. In addition to the aforesaid duties named, of the old -cook in the kitchen, the new dutiet of porter and waiter now devolvE Iupon this feeble frame of mine The trains must be met, the drummzsere andl drummers baggage brought to the offee, meals to be carried on the waitei to the table for the boarders and drumi -mers, water to be carried to the room! -rooms to be swept-office and dining. room to be swept, silver to be cleaned -table to be set, doylies to be hotelicall.s tarranged and more dishes to) be washed Oh horrow of hiorrow~s! WVhat must J do? My brain reeled, rmy hands ahvays -rt to the wrong dish or place first my legs trembled worse than they dik at Gettysburg or Chicamauga. Th< biscuits wvere burned, the homin3 scorched, the coff'ee put in the tea-po and the ten in the coffee-pot, th< chicken too brown, the steak burned on one sid1e and raw on the other, the . coflee and the tea set en the wrong sid4 of the guest, the teaspoon in the suga: dish and the sugar-spoon in the tea cap. Oh my! oh my! What will de liver me from this bondage? I havi I often said that four years of dreadfu e war was enough for mei. Not an3 - more in mine, but really I prefer small, very small, skirmish, to th< ordeal through which I have jus passed. This is my excuse for no .writing a letter to The Herald an< s News for the last two weeks, andi his is not a valid one, I should like fC the Editor to mention one thati valid and I'll write it up. But the ok cook's vacation is out-she is back a s her post of duty and I have a bran< - new porter, and we are all happy an< s serene now, especially so am I. Yr-Bn. A Safe Investment.
