Annie Shitolifie, of Charles- j ton, is visiting it? town. Mrs. L. L. Caldwell is in North Carolina on a visit to relatives. , Mrs. \V. E. Severance is spending Mjine time at her old home, Laurin-1 hurg, N. C. Mr. Louis Nuchman, whose home ! is now in Charleston in visiting friends here. Mr. J. J. M.tiraham,Jr.,says that] there is grass in plenty and to s ?are in his section. Mr. Dallas L. Jones, of Charleston, w?ts in town one day last week. From here he weut to visit relatives near Anderson's bridge. Mr. R. E. Morris spent Sunday with relatives in town. Mr. Morris! has a position in Florence with the! . Southern Express Company. Dr. A. 11. Williams went to Iiuffnlo, X. Y., to visit the Pan-American Exposition last week, liefore leavinir he stated that he would be .away about two weeks. Miss Rickenbncker, of Llackville. is spending some time in town. She has just closed her school at Hebron and stopped over here on her wt*y homo, where she will spend the holidays. Little Miss Levie Stuckey left; here Mund;*y afternoon for Floreuce j -where she went to take the fast ; train for South Georgia,whither she j goes to visit Mrs. It. II. Kirnlmll. I There are now seventeen convicts j in the chain gang. 'Work is now; being done on the road from here to; Lvncliburg. We understand that I thi< road will be worked to the I Florence county line. The gang is , now near Mr. C\ W. Webster's. Some of the youug folks had a little picnic at Chandler's mill Thursday. Of course it was not a fish dinner, for nA fish can now be captured. Nevertheless they had a | nice dinner and report that the day j was pleasantly spent. j The water in the lake was higher! Monday than it has been since the! storm of August, The ahutjnents to the larger bridge gave , way and the Hour was removed t* , prevent its being floated away, i There was no crossing except by ' foot travelers aad they had to wade. |1 31 r. -1. 1). Singletary says lie is 1 going to build a large green house 1 in which he will force vegetables for early market. He says he is';] convinced that theinten-ivesyatem |; i~ the one to he followed it success , i~ desired and that the earlv market i? tiie high market. That be is right there is haidi ' anv doubt.

This may 11 bring in several laborer*, whieh re ; suit would be welcomed by our, * town. ' Last week a warrant was issued 1 by Magistrate Caskins for Mr. J. K.}' Johnson, charging assault and bat- ( tery. Mr. Johnson was ar?ested in i; . Darlington by Sheriff Scarborough,; who notitied Magistrate Jaskins.j Mr. ('. K. Wheeler brought Mr. John-on here and the case was j: t ailed last Friday. The prosecutrix i failed to appear, but the witnesses! for the State were examined. No I ease was made out and the prisoner' was discharged. Mr. Johnson moved from <?eorgeto\vn to Cades a short!; time ago, Uut remained at the latter, i place only a few days, thence going to Darlington where l.e entered a | cotton factory. There was a kind of a game of ; l ase ball between Lake City and , King-tree here last Friday. We say it was a kind of a game because!1 't was all one way. The Kingstree ! wi.tii-.li. uln ii'.i tlw. 1 /Stx-I v.fellows. The disgraceful score was ( i:1* This team better take night j lessons from some ten-year-old kidj or save their bats to knock down: cotton stalks with next winter.) V'e are going to take up a subscrip- j tion to raise a sum to he oft'ered as i a reward for the capture with evidence to convict any team guilty of j being beaten by the Lake City nine.. Perhaps a scrub team may be found who can be bribed into going to sleep and letting the L. fellows I ??':it them. We know of no other way; for the thing to l>e done. Farmers are very blue over crop prospect*. A wet June is not tin-; usual, but a wet May followed by a i vet June has been almost unheard ' of before. Add to this the fact that; spring was so tardy that the plants: had barely come up before the rains, and we have a gloomy pros-j pect indeed. Some farmers hadn't) had their cotton chopped out before ] the earth became too wet to plow. 2s'ow everything is in imminent j \ \ Y danger of being choked and bled to ' death by the grass and weeds., | Many declare that it is impossible! to work at all, while others are j drivingahead, their mules slashing' and floundering through the mud and driving the water in little riv-l ers out of the ends of the rows ahead j of their plows. When harvests are [ gathered those who push ahead re- \ gardless of the rains or tho sun-; shine will be rewarded with larger ] returns than the others. In fanning j as well as in everything ebe those ;' who do their host and leave the rest \ to another, succeed while others ' tail. Some say that should thej rains cease now the. crops will be cut off *tie-lmlf. TO THE PEAK. jl A rich lady cured of deafness and j noises in the head by Dr. Nicholson's Artificial Ear Drums gave $10,000 to his Institute so that deaf people unable to procure the Ear Drums may j have them free.
