' Straw E DRY KING8T REE, Death of Mr J J HcCulloogh. The sudden death of Mr John 1 McCullough last Sunday mornng at his home near Taft was a .hock to his friends in town, as ie had been here but a short :ime ago and appeared to be in lis usual health and spirits. He lied about 10 o'clock a m very mexpectedly, as his family did tot know that he was ill. Mr McCullough was a man of nfluence in his community and me of our county's most subitantial citizens. He had a very ugh sense of honor and bore he respect and esteem of all ?bo knew him. Quite unasmming, yet ready to obey the rail of duty at any time with>ut question, he was a type of he country gentleman that has aised oar country to tne proua iminence it has gained and held. Mr McCuliongh was a ruling ilder In Union Presbyterian hurcb, which place he held for birty-four years. He will be aissed in church and social reations, and bis loss in the lome circle is irreparable. His mmediate family are his wife nd nine children, also his two rothers, Messrs S E and W B IcCullougb. Mr McCullough pas buried at Union Presbyteran church on Monday, the funral services being conducted >y Rev J E Mahaffey, in the abence of the regular pastor of Jnion, Rev E E Ervin. One of he largest crowds ever assembled bn a similar occasion ' was resent, thus showing the high egard in which the deceased ras held among his home peo-l >le.

G- OLLIE EPPS, SOLE AGENT I I j Waterman's Ideal Fountain Pen, i KINGSTREE. S. CAf we go to press we lea:n | that the county supervisor, in j going over the petition for a-n i election on the dispensary question, found enough names of non-qualified electors to reduce the number of signers below the required one-fourth. Therefore, for the present at least, the election will not be''ordered. We are grateful to our esteemed friend, Mrs H 0 Britton, cf Church postoffice, for a fine, large watermelon with which she presented us this week. It weighed forty-five pounds and measured twenty-five inches long. But it is the kind thoughtfuiness, rather than its intrinsic '? .t , I i.1 !fi. wortn, tnat maices inegm must | appreciated. This most estimable lady?although sick in bed twenty miles distant?remembered to send us tbis melan. Almost any of us would do a good deed if we thought of it, but it's the thinking that counts. The biggest water-melon we have received this year and the record melon as to weight?so far as we have heard?was presented us last week by our friend, Mr A R Moseley of Walters. Mr Moseley is a veritable wizard when it comes to water-melons. On a quarter of an acre patch be grew over 200 melons averaging more than forty pounds weight, besides a number of lesser heft Verily, as our Lake City scribe is fond of declaring, the possibilities of our soil and climate are illimitable. Mr Moseley ,s melon weighed 54 pounds. Call at our store, please, for a free sample package of Dr. Shoep's "Health Coffee.
