EE tAX PE.AL.T
There seems to be some confusion in
the popular mind as to, the amount of
penalty to iW added to taxes remaining
unpaid after the last day of the present
year. The impression gentrally pre
vails that in accordance with an Act
passed at the last session of the Legi.
lature the penalty to be added on the
first day of January is only one per
cent.. u' 1* increased each thirty days
until tie 15th clay of March, when the
tax executions will be issued. This, in

But heir effortu 'were of4 little~ avail.
Tfhe wind was high and1( the flames
made rapid p)rogressi.
Very little furniture and only a small
qluantity of p)rovisions were saved. 'rhe
family, consisting of Mrs. Kinard and
four children, were within a few hours'
time sitting out in the road with not
enough clothing for a change.
It is auppiosed that the fire originated
from a fire cracker which was; lighted
and thrown on the loft by one of the
children.
No estimate of Mr. Kinard's loss has
yet been made, but when a man loses
his all, ho is at the mercy of his friends.
Mr. Kinard is as good, honest and hard
working citizen as Newberry county
can produce, and deserves the sympa

held in the Lutheran chure Christmas

30th. In the Methodist church the
Sunday Schools had a service and
Christmas tree Christmas morning. In
the A. R. P. .church the Christmas pro
gram was rendered Christmas evening
and the Christmaa tree bore many gifts
for the members. Our towr: bad an

L.E'ITER FROMP UNION(.
Thet Larnivaj Thecre Last Week - The New
berry &oy6 Whio are Now "Unionites."
Mr. 1Kjir: U]iirs has gone wild.
With Christmas festivities and the car
rival on hand at once, I can't find it in
my heart to blame her. By the way,
did you know that the people of this
city are a great hearted people? if you
(ldin't, comne over for a day or two and
thens talkr; but, I started to tell you
ai-.out the carnivah .
When I first arrived I took a walk
around the whole machine anid went
back to my room to figure out the
amount of disgust that was floating
around loose; in my mind, anid had niot
somrre of our bJoys come around and over
p'-rsuadedi us, we should have been
guilty of a great injustice to our sister
city. In fact vwe had made up our
mind to pronounrce it- the carnival - a
se-cond class edlitioni of a one-horse show,
anid to warn Newberry against it. But
we have changed our mind, anid are now
prepared to pronounce it a success, of
the first water; for as v:e write, we are
prepared to say that we have never
seen a people mnore thoroughly infected
with the sp)irit of jollity, or more en
tirely oblivious to consideration of self,
than these UJnionites. What, wvith diai
pJlay, non-euphony of sound pyrotech
mei andl general indiscribability of con
ditions, on hand, we venture to say that
thec spirit of untrammelled mischief
can't match it. T1he whole push have
gonse wild, from six to sixty, and up
wardls; andl the man who expects to (do
business here during this week, needs
a wet towel on his head.
TIhe shows, so far as I have seen, are
chaste; in fact one or two of them
b)rought. the "'blubber'' out of yours
truly, viz., "Mt. P'elee" and "Margue
rite,"' whilst "The Old Plantation,''
caused us to laugh until we had to un
tie our shoes for comfort. I believe
that if ev%ery man and woman in New
berry sees "Hello! Central! Give Me
Heaven'' and '"The TJie that Binds'' that
we will be almost good enough for
translation for about a minute.
But enough of this. Union is a live
town, with plenty of money and plenty
o.f disposition to use it, and given the
time will be a lustrous jewel in the
coronet of Carolina. Our boys are all
doing well oiver here, iso we ll, indeed,
that I have heard it predicted that they
will all be mnillionaires, when they make
enough money.
I would like to scribe all night but,
(as you know, no mention was made of
frs, when the boys "chipped in" to
pay our expenses), we will have to close
arid kiver up; after eypressing the one
sole wish for the health, wealth and
prosperity of.old Newberry. H.
