A. . P. BEENBvUGr-. Seraryr. Highest of all in Leavening Pow( S ABSOLU/I THE BOLL WORM IN NEWBERRY Making Havoc with the Cotton Crop In Various Sections of the County. Last week The Herald and News gave tbe information tbat the Arkan sas or T. xas boll worm had made its appearance in Newberry County in sufficient numbers to cause some alarm to the farmers. Tbe reports from the farmers and the specimens of the destruction the boll worm is doing to the cotton crop is assuming -a most serious aspec,. On Monday Mr. D. P. Bouknight, living near Bush River, four miles from town, sent in a lot of bolls, showing the worms at work, just as he had gath ered they from his fields. Mr. Bauk night fears that his whole crop will be totally destroyed by the worms. Mr. J. H. Chappell also furnished some specimens of the work the worms had gotten in on his crop, and on a stalk with seven bolls there were five bolls that had been destroyed. From all sections of the county The Herald and News has received reports of destruction by the boll worms. Capt John F. Banks says that they are at work in his neighborhood and in his crop. From the Beth Eden section also come similar reports. The boll worm is at home in the lux uriant growth of cotton that abounds in many sections of Newberry County, as he is safe from the penetrating rays of a September sun, and can get in an alarming amount of work before frost. With dry weather, however, there is hope that the worm will disappear. The boll worm has heretofore been almobt entirely unknown in this sec tion, although some few such worms have been seen here during the last two or three years.

Wearn and Cozby will be with him and will be pleased to see their friends. A Million Frends.

Randoms from Wheeland. This community has always been somewhat slighted with regard to newspaper correspondents, and has never been heard from through your paper for one. Therefore- I sball try to give you a few notes and if they escape the waste basket, doubtless you will hear from us again. The farms around here look or dinarily encouraging, but have de creased about 2.5 per cent in the last three weeks, for want of occasional showers. There has been some sickness lately, but they are all out now except Mr. Wmn. D. Frick,-who has been confined to his bed for the last few days with neuralgia, which has been giving him a great deal of pain in his head. We hope he will soon be out again. Rev. A. .J. Frick of Texas arrived last Tuesday, on a visit to bis relatives and friends in this community. He has been absent about fifteen years and finds that the old Palmetto has not been snoozing all the time. He is a good Methodist brother, and has been arousing the natives on the subject of religion. WVe held services last Friday night at the residence of, and for the benefit of his aunt, Mary, which were very touching, as she is very old and will doubtless have passed over the river till his next visit. He also preached at the mountain Sunday morning and has three appointments before he leaves for Texas Saturday next. U We have a very encouraging ESan day-school at the academy now. The attendance is extra good and every one takes great iuterest, which is the life of any undertaking. Politics is exceedingly quiet now, whether another subject is occupying the thoughts of the people just now, or they have really reformed js a live question. - B..

McMorries filled his reg ular appointment in the school build ing Sunday afternoon. Mr. Lee Long, wife and daughter, of Pomaria, have been visiting in the com mu nity. We notice the railroad rates have been announced for the coming State Fair. The rates are not very encour aging for New berrians to attend, and, in fact, we think the Agricultural and, Mechanical Society should look after this matter in order to make the Fair a success. The rates are entirely too high, and we hope to hear that they will be reduced so that the Fair may be well attended and prove a success as heretofore. Mrs. J. M. Wheeler, of Prosperity, has been visiting in the community. Prof. J. S. Wheeler is building a new rat-proof crib. Mr. J. A. Kinard is doing the work, and when completed will be quite a convenience.

Kahler, a prominent shoe merchant of Des Moines, Lowa, hadquite a serious time of it.

ProSPERITY, September 3.-Captain '. B. Whites of A tlanta ran in on the excursion last Saturday to visit his family and friends in Prosperity. Many of our people attended the closing exercises and picnic of the Mt. Tabor school. Of course they had a p!easant day. Prosperity High School began the session of 1894-95 this morning. Scarce ly if ever in the history of the school have fifty students been ready to en roll on the first day of school. But that is just what happened this morn ing. The school is better equipped for doing its work than it has ever been, being supplied from time to time with apparatus so necessary in school work, and under the present sur?ounding, the enrollment has never been higher than that of the last two years. Some of our people boarded the ex cursion for Charleston last Saturday while on the same day some returned from Asheville. so we have excursions hither, thither, up and down, to and from everywhere, excursions. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Werts died Sunday evening and was buried Monday. Johnson's Oriental Soap imparts a delicate color and leaves the skin soft and veivety.

It already governs the tides and now It has entered politics and wishes to govern the people of South Carolina. The rays of the sun grow dim as that luminary nears the evening horizon of late. The protracted meeting at St. Phil lip's closed last Thursday at noon, hav ing lasted five days with two services each day. Rev. J. H. Wyse preached the morning sermon on Wednesday, which was only help Rev. Bowles had. There were twenty confirmations. At the meeting Rev. Bowles announced among other things that an effort would be made to organize a Young People's Christian Endeavor Society as soon as possible; that after services on the next preaching day (September 9th, p. m.) steps would be taken to find out if a sufficient number would join be fore attempting to organize. Our friend "Alpha" of the "Voice" had the honor of extending to us a kind invitation to accept a seat in his buggy last Saturday morning, which invitation we readily accepted, and soon found ourself on the way to the Sunday-school picnic at Bethlehem. Arriving on time we entered the church where we listened with pleasure to the sweet songs of praise, followed by Scripture lesson and prayer by the pas tor, and next to an excellent address by G. B. Cromer, Esq. Subject, The unselfish boy and the unselfish girl. The congregation was then dismissed, when the undersigned, yielding to some powerful influence, possibly in stinct or foreknowledge, that well-filled baskets were near at hand, soon found himself in the grove and standing near, yes, very near, a table spread on the ftesh green grass and laden both in quantity and quality with every "eata ble" that makes picnics enjoyable, and to which everybody was kindly invited to partake. After dinner the young folks took charge of affairs-their own affairs, of course-and managed them according to their several interests. That is our conclusion, at least. The election is over, and with a few exceptions those candidates who were in are still in and thosea who were out are still out. It's a strange fact that men who claim to be Reformers "to the core" will cast their vote and use their influence in favor of candidates who represent principles entirely det rimental to the interests of Reform when they have candidates'in the field who are Reformers "to the core," also, and who advocate and uphold the principles or measures on which Re form is based. Yet we hear this same class of Reform~ pleading for "meas ures and not me'." Do they expect to successfully carry out Reform meas ures by supporting anti-Reform candi dates? If they are inoerested in Re form and desire to make it a success they should support only true blue Reforniers from Governor down to Coroner who advocate Reform meas ures and who will stand by them in tbe face of all opposition. Mr. Q. M. Kinard worked his section of road last Thursday afternoon and Friday following. Now its real nice to talk and write and go abont making speeches on having good roads and all tbat sort of thing, but when one has to pick up his shovel and help, t~o "round them up in the middle" it's not so very nice. BIut then good roads are abso lutely necessary and we must have them. JOSH TRUMP A. M.

The following poetic production from the facile pen of a gifted young Caro lina woman, recently a resident of Newberry but now a citizen of New Orleans, will be read with pleasure by her friends and admirers. She writes well and easily in both verse and prose. The sentiment of "The North King's Crown" is good and beautifully ex pressed, while the rhythm and meter are faultless. The fifth verse is excep tionally fine. We hope she may soon again favor The Herald and News: On the wings of the wind the North King sped To invade a kingdom fair, 'The subjects of May first oppose his way, Then bow with a frightened air. For his mien was fierce, and his step was swift, And they felt with vague alarm That the gentle sway of their loved queen May Was threatened with awful harm. His breath blew keen o'er hill and dale, He raised his head on high, And whistled a tune to the rising moon In bhrill monotone. His throne he placed on a mountain high, His robes were dazzling white, His sceptre swayed an- his messengers strayed O'er the land bearing chill and blight. He called for the crown that the good queen May In ride had been wont to wear; But is messengers sighed, as in vain they tried To revive that garland fair.
