Lake City, November 6:? ? II. G. Askins, Esq., came .up!, from Kingstree Sunday and spent j the day in towu. All tho nld haphfdnra and wid- i owers ought to study bookkeeping. Let them get behind a set of books and they do not remain single long. All of those classes who'are of eligible age now have joined the ranks i except one tough old fellow, but he : -will not be alone long. A few days i ago a yonng lady accepted a position in front of his desk and his fate is now sealed and he will before long 1 be keeping "double entry." ' Mr. Claude Carter, /who is post* master at Effingham, spent 8unday in town visiting. < ' Mr. J. El W. Chandler has been drawn on the petit jury of the U. S. | District Court, which convenes in Charleston early ia December. - ( Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Hatchell spent Tuesday in Effingham. < And the destruction of fish with 1 dynamite is going on in Lynch's rite;4oo. Within the last week or two several parties have been ' active in'the neighborhood of Bass's 1 bridge and lower down. It seems ' that thej explode the cartridges in the deep oaves where the fish collect ' This is worse than traps, nets o?* an y thing else that has been devised to 1 desolate oar streams. All kinds, sizes and qualities are killed; and these miscreants, who regard neither . law nor decency in their greed leave 1 .to rot snch as tbey need at the moment Near the "Little Fishery" ten to fifteen fine carp and red-horse were seen dead one day last week 1 floating in an eddy. This thing is going entirely too fai. Men do not like to report their neighbors, but lawless neighbors will snrely reach the end of their ropes after a while, if they keep on. Forbearance oeases, to be a virtue in time. The man who wilfully violates this law, will violate any other when the temptation offers, and he deserves no more consideration than any other criminal. / Among our people who Tisited J " Kingstree Monday the following ware noted: Dr. S. B. W. Courtney, Messrs. J. A, Green, S. L. Courtney, S. W. Gowdy, J. \V. McCutchen, j . Henry Altman, J. J. Morris, J. T. ; Carter, D. T. Wells and W. L. Bass. Mr. B. F. Brockington of Bethel passed through town Monday night on his way heme front the Southeast association at Harpers. r The much-married Harry White, * ; < ~ / * . ? rie ' . b - ^ UNKS, 51 riwrfiiMiMhWMMMMMMaMgaaMnfwwiBii ;s, Rubbe Wright's Hei Underwear, Ladies' AH W Ribbed Vests.

Last week the preliminary uas called. White, it >^ems, maintained his innocence ^ until Mrs. Dasy Helk, (it was) late of Lake City, and wife No. 4 or 5, jj who was Miss Martha Matthews, of i this town, both appeared, when he * broke down and confessed. There must be something extraordiuarily attractive about the Lake City girls to cause a man to fall in love with so many of them, but Harry White has learned that, thongh a fellow ^ wanto to marry all of them,he'd better a stop at ooe, foi they will not stand \ for a man whose tender affections a are scattered promiscuously. For three centuries the true South has beeo the leader of the ^ American continent and is today. Yankeedom may not acknowledge this, bat that is but an additional proof of its correctness. The only part of Theodore Boosevelt that is worth a fig came from Georgia, and that part, if not crushed or bribed. mil make a right decent ueroocrat oot of kin before be is sixty. Mr. M. M. Motler and Miss Grade Jerrey were married at the residence of the bride's father, Mr. Louis Jerrey, in Sumter, S. C., on October 27, 1907. The officiating^ clergyman was Ber. J. P. Marion, Jr., pastor of Sumter Presbyterian oburch. Mr. Motley is beok-keeper for Smith-Williams Co. The young couple will make their home in this town, and they bare the well wishes of all for the best that life can giro. Saturday night the North-bound local passenger train was fired into just north of the lake aud oue passenger, Mr. Will Powers, painfully injured. There were two who took - * * < i i m part 10 toe dastardly aeea. x wo rocks were thrown ioto the negro coach. Ooe shot was fired ioto the white coach. The sash was shattered and several shots struck Mr. Powers, two or three going through his nose and some ioto his cheek and lips. The train was stopped at once, but the rascals had escaped. The wouaded man bled profusely aud it was thought at first that he was fatally hurt, but later examination showed that the injuries were not serious. At Scranton Drs. Lynch and Pate were taken on board and accompanied Mr. Powers to Florence, where he was put in charge of Mr. J. n. v. uasicios, who turned him over to Dr. Eaddy at Timmonsville. No efforts are beiD? spared to find out the rasoals and there are hopes of success, but for obvious reasons names and evidence are withheld. All good citizens would rejoice to know that the scoundrels who would so wantonly kill, were behind bars and that too for keeps. W. L.
