(Speclal Correpon1ence Herald aud News.1 Prosperity, S. C., May 20 --Miss Belle Boozer has returned from her visit to friends in Greenwood. Again the marriage bells. have rung out the glad announcement of two more hearts that beat ds one. At the Lutheran parsonage on Wednesday Rev. Dr. Hallman married Miss Harriet A. Harmon and Mr. J. J. Aiick. Miss Harmon was the daughter of our towns man, Mi Godfrey Harmon, and Mr. Amick lives in the upper portion of the county Our best wishes attend them. We are pleased to note that our city fathers are doing soue very n1co- street improvoments, and if they will just continue until all that is necessary is done, our town will put on new airs. Capt. Jno. Fellers and M,. A. H. Haw kins, we believe, constitut-. the commit tee on streets, and they are pushing it. Let the improvements go on. The hour for services in Grace church have been changed, to take ef fect the fifth Sunday. Morning service at 10 a. m.; evening service at8 o'clock. These are the hours for service to be gin. No change in other churches. A test was made of the water supply in our well last week, t.oJ from the amount of the supply as given the well will afford about 16,000 gallons per day. They are now going down, and Mr. Kendall, the traveling auditor, in forms me that he thinks 50 feet more will give us all the water we will want. The balance of the lumber is coming in, and just as soon as the water ques tion is off hands, building will begin. Rev. J. W. Blanton went. the long and lonesome road to Lexington last week, where he assisted in a protracted meeting. We guesm he knows Piney Woods' roads by this time. There has been some talk here of an oil mill. We hope it will materialize. We can't get too many factories. We trust the gentlemen who have been talking this matter will push it ahead. Miss Jo Langford, who has been teaching at Swansea, is at home spend ing her vacation. Her brother, Dr. Jno. Langford, came home with her. He has been sick and came up to re cuperate. From present indications J. Perry Cook's excursion to Columbia on Sat urday will be very well patronized, al though you can't count them until they get aboard. There will be an ice cream festival this (Thursday) afternoon in the inter est of the base ball association. The accessions to the churches in town last. Sunday amounted to 32, as follows: A. R. P., 9; Lutheran, 11; Methodist, 12. Mrs= :9. M. Matthews' improvement is very slight, although hopes are en tertained of ir recovery. Her mother, Mrs. Werts, is still with her. , Agent Browne is improving nicely, and we fear lie will put his threat into execution when lie returns to thrash your correspondent for p)okinig fun at him before he left. Never mind, Frank, you get well anid we can settle the balance. rj he Prosperity High School A ssocia tioni will hold its annual meeting in the school building on Thursday, June 10th, at 4 o'clock p. mn., to elect three trustees and transact such other busi noss as may come up.

Hallman has been lecturing on the miracles for some time, and ow ing to the revival services they were interruptcd thie past few weeks. He will resume them again next wveek.
