number of statements to subscribers
in arrears. There are
now on our books nearly 2,000
subscribers, many of whom
have paid nothing in a year or

linquents to settle up as soon
as possible. Each account is
made out up to the nearest year
or half year. It may be that
some who get these statements
have already paid; if so just call
our attention to the fact and
we will cheerfully make the
correction. Ail we want is
what is due us and not a cent
more. But we do want that.
There will be preaching in
the Methodist church next Sun
day at 11 a. m. and 7:30 p. m.
Messrs Philip Stoll and H A
Meyer attended the K of P district
convention at Mullins this
week as delegates from Kingstree
lodge.
Notwithstanding the delayed
train about a dozen people
from here went to Florence to
see "Buffalo" Bill's show Tues'
day morning.
Messrs Hugh Pipkin and J E
Ridgeway, of the Bloomingvale
section, spent Sunday in town.
Both these young men are well
known and have numerous
friends in town.
There will be a hot supper at
the home of Mr J 0 McCullough
on Thursday night, 24th inst.,
for the purpose of raising
money to furnish the new Cedar
Swamp scbool building, i nej
public is invited to be there.
Several mornings this week
frost was visible, there being a
heavy one on Tuesday morning.
Notwithstanding the fact that
it fell over nearly all the cotton
belt, the price of spot cotton
has not advanced appreciably.
Monday night the Black river
trestle was ignited by sparks
from train No. 89 and about fifteen
cross ties and two "stringers"
burned. The wrecking
train arrived from Florence
about 8 a. m. and in less than
one hour the damage was re

We hate to be continually
making apologies, but as we
stated last week, several of our
printing force have been unwell
and are still sick. We have
wired and written for printers
but are still short. We are doing
the best we can, and ask
the indulgence of our friends,
especially those who are in a
hurry for job work orders.
Mr E B Wilson, clerk in the
comptroller general's office, has
been in town several days this
week, making his settlement
with the county treasurer. In
the last settlement there was an

pleased to state that a careful
checking of the books show that
General Johnson was not only
not short in his accounts, but
the county really owed him
$31.50. The discrepancy was
due purely to a clerical error,
caused by the hurried examination
that was made.

Mr. Watson D Snowden passed
away very suddenly Thursday
nierhtat 8 o'clock at his boose
at" Benson. Mr. Snowden was
about 57 years of age. His wife
preceded him in death some
years ago. He leaves ten children,
the eldest of whom is Mr W
E Snowden, who is well known in
town. The funeral services of
Mr Snowden took place Friday
afternoon at Cedar Swamp
church.
One of the handsomest buildings
in Kingstree, and one that
would do credit to any town several
times the size of Kingstree
is the just-completed two-story
building erected by Mr F C
Thomas, the enterprising stable
man.
The lower floor consists of
two stores 30x80 feet while the
upper floor is made into one
large hall, which we understand
is intended for a town ball and
opera house. For an opera
house the hall is admirably adapted,
being equipped with a
wide stage, dressing rooms, a
rear entrance and the other various
accessories of the Thes
pian art.
Kingstree has long needed
both a town hall and an opera
house and to have the ttfo in
one is literally combining business
with pleasure. We understand
that a manager has been,
selected for the opera house and
that we may look forward to
some good attractions in Kingstree
during the long winter
months. Heretofore there has
been a dearth of such amusements
here mainly by reason of
the fact that there was no place
where a first class company
could find room to exhibit.
Now that that obstacle has
been removed we shall probably
have some first class "shows '
and we feel sure th at the people
of Kingstree and vicinity will
give them a liberal patronage.

The State Fair

i Advices for Accommoda- |
tions Show Greatest
Fair Gathering
Ever Known.
With good crops and good fellow*
ship existing throughout the State
the crowds at the State Pair will be
bigger and livelier than ever before.
And Columbia will be in better shape
to receive her guests than ever before.
More boarding houses and homes
have been listed than ever and the
bureau of information is in position
to take care of everybody.
As for the fair Itself, it will be
greater, grander and gayer than ever
before. No better Fair ever known in
the South than the State Pair at Columbia
this year?Oct 28 to Nov. 1.
There will be more to see, more to
enjoy, more to profit by than ever
known anywhere outside of the national
expositions. The . agricultural,
stock, poultry and Implement exhibits
alone will more than repay anyone's
visit to the Pair.
Besides these marvelous exhibits
for which over 88,000 premium money
=hii Ha naid. the races will attract
thousands of people. Just think of
purses for these races aggregating
nearly $4,000. And some of the best
trotting and running horses In America
will race for these purses.
In the way of amusements, It is
alomst impossible to chronicle all the
contests, shows and social functions
scheduled for Fair Week. The big
football games between Citadel and
Welch Neck on Wednesday and Clemson
and University of North Carolina
win be held on Thursday. Oct. 31.
Field athletics and other contests will
be held nearly every day.
Theatres and the Midway will give
pleasure for everybody, children and
grown people. Tell your friends to
meet you at the State Fair. I
