NO LAKE CITY DOTS AND DASHES. 'SOKE ROSEATE REFLECTIONS?TWiNS AND TRIPLETS- HOW A "G. M. I." ' PATRON (ARE TO GRIEF. * Lake City, Nov. 7:?Mr W F L Steele came down from Rockinbam. N. CM last week and will be here for some time looking ; after the business of his company and his own private alfairs. He believes there is a ?rreat future L ahead for this section and will I do all his part to hasten the time wnen it win iaKe its piace ^W^^rmong the TTf o s t prosperous communities of the country. Mr Steele's influence is being-felt towards inducing the right sort of people to come ^ among us. Already some good men have come and more will ' >follow. Five years have made many improvements in this country; five more, without a calamity, - will work wonders. But in times of prosperity, if we would be wise, we will not forget that evil days are sure to come some time. In the years of plenty provision should be made for the times of dearth that are ahead. Some folks say that the tenof nature is towards hav^ ng things -in twos; but there most momentous exceptions fhis rule?exceptions fraught yth the fate ot nations ?and are in threes. For ini, the Great Roman triurn, Ca^ar, Pompey and s; the three famous states .ilioun,Webster and Clay; ie graces. Faith, Hope rity; and the three grand ? of the autumn?'posers immrms and potatoes. greSfest of these is / -1 J Coward we again ks for some line pota:y were not of extrasize, but full, slick and id strictly Al. Ten J 35 pounds and every picture * Bake a few of -nice and brown, and lay i along beside a barbecued ,4sum. "Friends, Romans, antrymen, lend me your eyes," At we'll use our own jaws for he present. Mrs Emma Kennedy and Miss Mary, of the Hebron neigh x>rnood, were noted 'Tn-- f in town last Wednesday. Last week we stated that the SS Planters'Warehouse would be used as a storage house for cot>ton. This was not correct. One L|^0tiqnndi- was permitted to put ^^^s^fciral bales in the warehouse i so tlfat he could insure and hold P it. This was noised abroad and r the conclusion contained in the , article referred to was a natural one, but \t was a mistake. The house is a lanre one and cotton ^ - TH"there is so placed that it does not interfere with anything and Messrs Motley are still running' their tobacco business and hustling too and there will be no let up until the season closes. Last Sunday the Lake City \ Baptist church by vote in conp *. terence notified Rev T J Rooke that the church considered it desirable to change her pastor. - In the call extended some years ago to Rev Mr Rooke it was provided that whenever either the church or the pastor desired to sever the relationship, three months' notice must be given to R the other party to the compact. > * The action of the church Sunday was in accordance with this agreement, and on the first of r February next Mr Rooke will cease to serve this church. He ^is a noble man; bis life is blameMess; his work here has been for good and there are many who gffl| wm regrei iu kxvc mux up. nr ^ is a good man, a pure Christian, T and there is not wanting many lEftd earnest prayers for his future happiness and prosperity. ^ La^Rliiisday Mr Wheeler M h T' , of FlorenCfe-county, came ff| a to complete the purchase ct of land and brought H M his pocket.

H G Askins, Esq., returned to Kinjifstree Saturday, having re-1v covered sufficiently to take up his work again. 'lis illness was i a very lonjj and serious one. At times very little hope of his recovery was entertained. His 1 friends are rejoiced at his de- c cided improvement and hope for his complete restoration. Dr H L Baker of Rome was f here a few hours Monday morning to the delight of many friends. He is very popular here t with all who knew him in the 1 days when this was his home.
