W. L. BASS, Esq.
The strawberry growers are beginning
to cover the plants.
Mrs. R. J). Rollins came home
.from Charleston r few days ago.
Aiv <m#s ATrs TV M. Clement re
turned Saturday from their visit to
Florida.
Mrs. S. A Nettles and daughter,
01iv<?, of Lanes, aro 011 a visit to
relatives in town.
Constable Howell came down
from Florence Tuesday and captured
a jug of liquor.
Mesdames Rollins and Epps have
closed their lodging house at 77
Washington street, Charleston, and
returned home.
Mr. Epps and Miss Ethel Radjrers
and Mr. Julian Clark and Missj
Jackie Rodders spent a portion of
last week in Charleston at theex;position.
We understand that Mr. W. S.
Moore, who went to his old home at
South Boston, Va., for a vacation
just before Christmas, has been
quite ill for some time. He is now j
somewhat improved.
A uew guard house has become
andespensibly necessary and the
-council has determined to build.
The town owns a small lot directly
in front of the school house and
only a few teet from it. For three
years efforts have been made to
secure a lot elsewhere but every
effort has failed; and at a meeting
a few days ago it was about resolved
to build on the lot referred to.. The
, situation of a guard house there
will not be very pleasant to those
"who live in the neighborhood, and
-?ri^ a it-ill nru^tipitllv ilwstrnv the
?uu IV f?M? |/? ??v v?v<?.v
market value of the adjoining lots;
"but the council has no alternative.
A number of boys in town are in
the habit of jumping oi> and off the
trains. They get on every part of
the train?. fc>oine make a specialty
of riding ?he engine*; some clamber
on the freight cars; and some enter
the cars blocking the doors and
aisles. The practice is fast becoming
an intolepjIuTe n^jsance. Complaints
.iiK* loud anV^umerojs.
\Ve have it from one of the highest
officials of the road that th:s nuisance
is worse hire in Lake City
than any where else along the line.
The boys are both white and colored.
The council passed an ordinance
against the practice some
time ago and for a while it was very
effective,but such a sentiment finally
grew up against the ordinance
that it, could not be enforced. It
was then repealed. The thing
should bo suppressed.
In last week's Record, in speaking
of the pasture vfence, we said
among other things that "through
some misunderstanding no taxes
had been assessed for raising money
to rebuild and keep in repair this
fence." "For fear of being misunderstood
wo wish to explain this a
little more fully. We understand
that the county commissioners really
levied the tax, but that the tax
was not charged up on the treasurer's
duplicate for the reason that
the late auditor, who took the returns
in Jrhe territory affected,
through some misunderstanding
or misapprehension, did not list the
' irt !*.?* fKa to v onnlJ lw* i)C.
TMWC1V Oil fclinv tllC ??A v?ui>? ?v/ ....
sessed against it. Under the act
the stock running at large in this
i territory is the only property
ngainst which this tax can be assessed.
When we said "assessed"
we meant assessed, not levied.
