The Knighs of Honor of South Carolina paid to widows and or phans last year the amount ol over $101,000. The first snow of the season made its appearance Wednesday . morning af Itoek IIill when wca. clonal flakes were initialed with the rain. Steps will be taken in a lew I % days to organize a choir of 40 oices to sing during the meeting : of the State Baptist convention in ! December at Kock Hill. Those farmers who made a fair c:op of tobacco I his vear are in BK"'*'* * lock. They will manage to even op with tobacco what they have lost by the low price of cotton. It is sawl that Wyatt Aiken of ; Aboevtlle will be a candidate lor ^ congress next year to sifcceed Con- j |r. gresstnau Latimer.

The object of good roads will be thoroughly talked over and some plan will be decided upon that will en ajble-all the counties to hare roads that will be a dream to ihose who travel them. ,The Meeting of 'Hell." ^ It seems that nothing sacred or j \ jjjjroftoe, no accepted truth or set j tied fact can survive the invests y gallon and convincing logic of the i (Say, and that whatever we build; Bfr- on is false, whatever we have be- j ;* Jieved in from childhood is untrue, j t and whatever we are most certain j _ of and doubt the least, is utterly | x erroneous, says (be Charleston fey Post, ;y At every turn oar faith is shakv* on mir mnftitprn^n chnnl-orl siiwl : shattered. and we are buffeted g| about by every new fact and clis\ t- covered, like a feather before the Rr* W|e-. ? ft.\ Not Tonj? since St. George AIr; i^-yart, the eminent English scien8t art led irs all, and pleased pBHT1, by proving with irrilaguble kt^je, tbat there was happiness in i As we remarked, this was! [' itj.-agreat comfort to some. But un- ! yjp fortunately he took it all back,j when Ron>e decided against him, i bo the leader deserting, all who! |gl#c ready to embrace his stau ! ^ dmrd had 1o disband. Now comes the Kev. Alex Kent,' D. D., pastor of People's church, Washington, D. C., .and proves j I . conclusively, that we are entirely ^ misled and mistaken in ever hav- i |j? log thought that tliere was such | ati everlastingly disagreeable place | at all. I tie says Ilell cannot be defined jo single phrase or sentence, be-; I cause the scriptures never use it f. in the sense whiyil is generally j - given to it. Confessedly the Ho - .( ---r: ;w_... I?vw -<heoP which occurs sixtylive times in tlie old testament and is rendered "hell" thirty one times, ''grave" thirty one, rnd "pit" three times, is a term as op posite to the popular idea of "hell' as light to darkness. It denotes simply u der-world and -hades" is merely its (J reek equivalant. It is found iu the l ew Testament eleven times; and is uniformly rendered "hell" except where htas caused the translators to use * it .1 . . / \ urave," eise we wotuu read *'w, hell, where is ihy victory!"* When h?ll was first used by translators it did not do such jrross violence to the original as it does now. For it comes from the old world "helan" meaning to conceal or cover. To "hell" ones head was to put on a hat. To "hell*' a root' was to slate or shingle it. To "hell" anything was to put it oat of sijiht. Theie was then or initially some similarity between the "sheol" and "hades" of 1 he Bible, which was simply the mioaan mulurWi !in.t ol'iii'lll CV VII* Miaviv i It w? I\?^ "hell" of old English. The word ' hell" was used to denote the receptacle into which the tailor threw his shreds and worthless re lunants. It is still used among prin ers to designate their receptacle for broken and worn out type?their hell-box. Thus at one fell swoop all our confidence in "help is shattered. How can we then believe in politicians? Who is My Neighbor? Tnat man who does you a real kindness.
