The Newberry Roller Mills Are ready for grinding the new crop of wheat. Remember they wei.h the wheat before grinding, instead af mecas uring it, and return the same weight received, excepiting the toll. This is the only mill which has adopted this plan. They guarantee results as to quality and quantity of flour. Be sure to have your wheat dry, and make c gagements in order to avoid the rush. Phone 116. A Good Performance. The catertainment at the opera house on Friday night, given under the aus pices of the young ladies of Aveieigh Presbyterian church was a success in every particular. Every character in the play from the Princess down to the serving maid and valet entered into the S spirit of the p)erformance and gave the audience an hour of genuine fun and pleasure. Those who were kept away by the in clemency of the weather, missed a treat S and those who braved the storm were fully repaid for comIng. It Dazzls the World.

It will also be remembered that during the past soholasitie year he has won two gold medals in oratory. Uih1ps. Mr. Jno. I). i. Kinard is still in very lingering health. Mrs. J. K. E1pps takes the lead in the borticulluro line among our other good women. She has our many thanks for some nice beans. We wore sorry that our work was too pressing to admit us attending the fireman's tournament. Whilo Nowber ry lost all of her prizes, we venture the assertion that she has gained a reputa tion in hospitality. We feel assured that she did her full duty in intertain ing her guest. Mr. 11. T. Long, who has boon work ing in the Carolina Manufacturing shop at Newberry for the past eight months, met with the misfortune week before last to got his left thumb cut off. Mr. Long was rippig up some lumber when his linger was caught by the saw and instantly cut off just above the first joint from the hand. We are glad to say the wound is getting along nicely. A now comer has made its appear ance in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sid ney Dorrick--its a boy. The lust two weeks in May we farm ers were all on the anxious bench. It rained just enough to keep the land too wet to plough nearly all the time. Only about three days ploughing was done within the two weeks. But I must say that I heard less grumbling. I hope that this is an evidence of a fact that the people are growing better. We must learn to reconcile our minds to the providential dealings of God. Last week, and this, up to this writ ing, has been fine weather, and the people have certainly made good use of the time. The most of them put in about fourteen hours of actual work a day. In fact we never saw farm work pushed forward any better. This week will about wind up harvest, and the principal part of the cotton will be thinned. Beans, Irishpotatoes, squashes, cher ry pies are already on hand, with the blackberries almost in sight, so can't you see that we country people are lix ing to live. Look hero, Push, what's the matter? Come again, old fellow, let us hear from.those watermelons, and there is Sigma and a host of our other corre spondents that's taking too long a snooze. The towns and cities are continually Inviting and encouraging capital and interprises of various natures, and most everything of this nature is float ing to town.' We ilke to see the towns build up, and so far as cotton and oil mills are cone led they belong to town where they can have full access to shipping. But, dear old country, we must not let everything drift off to town. We have several interprizes in our country that we feel proud of. Dr. W. T. Dickert, our country doctor, is not only attentive and kind to the sick, but he is also successful in his prac tice, and we are proud of him. Mr. Perry HIalfaero has one of the be ,t grist mills and cotton gins that can be start ed anywhere. Mr. W. D). Hlalfacre r'uns a wood and blacksmith shop near Mr. D. A. Ruff and 3. K. Epps both run sarghum mills that can't be excelled. Ruff & Co. has two stores right near St. Philip. Bolnest & Co. runs a saw mill, cotton gin and thresher, and their work always gives p)erfect satis faction. Mr. G. M. Singley & Sons run a grist mill and cotton gin that is hard to beat. Mr. G. L. Sease runs a saw and grist mill and thresher. Ev erybody that knows Luke Sense know. that he don't (10 things by halves. There is Jefferson Quattlebaum. the old reliable, who runs a wood shop, and is hard to crowd when it comes to making most any kind of fut'niture. Hero is Mr. E. L. Strauss, runs a store right near our home, who keeps a full line of groceries and confectioneries, and is able to compete with any of your town merchants. Just a little fur'ther over is our young friend J. D. Quattlebaum with his blacksmith and wood shop, and he.ls not only liberal in his charges, but what he does is doncf right. We also learn that Mtr. Luther Chap man is preparing to run a canning business, and wvill can for the public this summer as cheap as anybody.. We m~ust not forget to mention our frilend, Mr. M. L. Strauss, who runs a large lean business, to the accommoda tion of many, far and near. Now If I have left out any public en terprising citizen within this territory, it IS simplly an oversight, and is not In tended by any means. Those enter prises that I have mentioned may seem small in the eyes of those who are building cotton mills and other large factories, but they are every one of great importance to we country people, and we are pr'oud of them. My dear people, don't lose sight of country industries. We need more of them. We want to see some one in this surrounding put urp a roller flour mill. We learn that Mr. Perry Hlalfacre was thInking over the matter. We hope he will soon decide to add this much more to his other machinery. I feel sure that it would prove a paying Invest ment. It was real amusing to read Tillman's and McLaurin's fit of passion. The whole combustible was nothing more or less than a matter of pretense. It reminded me of our little boy and.his pet hen. For a long time the boy watched his hen very faithful. The hen alungs went on her nest, laid, and came off about the same time every day. Finally she went on one morning and stayed on all day. The little fellow concluded late in the evening that his hen had been on her nest long enough and he politely lifted her off. mai mo ther said, Clyde, what Is the matter with your old hen, is she setting? Clyde answered, no mami, she's just making out that she wants to set. I supposei Tillmanl thought that Me lau rin had been on his nest, long enough and that he would lift, him oil. Neither of theml had any idea of resitgning. It's at pity that Governor McSweeney didn't accept their resignation so that tho people of South Carolina could have shown them that thitr places could have been tilled many times with just as good, worthy and competent men as they. Too much hostility! We believe that whenever a man begins to think that this world can't get along without him, and that he's carrying 70,000 or 80,000 votes in his pants pocket, it is just simply time to show him his weak ness. ihat mighty terror that racks the whole human heart and soul has made its first appearance in the home of Al r. and Mrs. S. A. Rikard. 'os, it has comie, dear reader, to them just as it's going to come to your homiie and mine sooner or later. Pearl, the loving little two year old boy of M r. and Mrs. S. A. Rikard, afteri a severe illness of live or six weeks, quietly passed from its earth ly pains to its heavenly joys Sunday night, the 3d inst., and its little body was laid to rest In liachman Chapel graveyard on Monday following its death. Rev. H. P. Counts conducted the burial services. We can only di rect the broken hearted parents to Him who is able to heal their sorrows, and may that kind hearted father who never does any thing wrong pour out drops of consolation into their wounded bo soms and till their souls with a deeper love to Ilin. Chips. June 13, 1901. Mr. Ab Sligh threshed 631 bushels of oats for AIr. S. 11. Aull, of Jalap.;, Monday, which was the product of live acres of land. Ie sowed six bushels of oats to the acre, and used 400 pounds of gold dust fertilizer. Cut 'rico .ale at .Ja mieson's. Jamieson, the head to foot clothier, has inaugurated at his store the great est and most remarkable cut price sale ever offered the people of Newberry. He means business and in Friday's paper will quote prices that will prove our assertion, on clothing, both for men and children, dry goods, shoes and Oxfords. Watch his windows for prices and look for his ad. in our next paper. All dry goods going at cost, and all low cut shoes and Oxfords going at a mere song. The Heaviest Rain for Years. On Sunday afternoon at five o'clock Newberry was visited by one of the heaviest rains that we have ever seen, and which lasted for fifty minutes. Tie creeks on both sides of town were swollen unti' they reached out over all of the lowlands and carried off a lot of fine oats which had just been cti and belonged to Messrs. Brown, Livingstonc and others. )own at the colored Bap tist church preaching was in progress at the time and the water rose until it reached up to the floor, and some had to be carried out, while others placed benches acr'oss the street to the higher land and made their escape in that way. PROF. 13. L. JONEs. Eleted Superintendent or the Laurens Oradled Schools ing of the board of trustees held this morning Prof. B. L.

Deeds show what a man is; words show what he should be. The unsuccessful dramiatist finds his task all work and no play. The smaller a man's mind Is the long er it takes him to maike It up. Many a man would starve if he had nothing to live on but his reputation. Out of the frying-pan of courtsh Ip a man steops into the fire of matrimony. T wo heads are better than one-espe cially if the other fellow is guessing tails. Charity that begins at home usually suspends operations during the house cleaning period.
