WEEKLY NEWS BlIBGET FROM ANDREWS. i | EXCITING WRECK ON G. S W. RAILROAD ?NOTtS AM) SUGGESTIONS ON TIMELY TOPICS. Andrews, February iN:?The (i & TV railroad had another exciting wreck last Thursday afternoon. At West End depot the passenger train took the siding for the local freight to pass and while the passenger train was backing out, the rear coach split the switch, causing the car to jump ' the track aud very nearly turning! over completely in the ditch with bO. or 70 passengers on board. This, accident shook up and alarmed eve-1 ry one, but fortunately ro one was ! hurt. The writer was in view of the train wheu the wreck occurred and it was certainly a thrilling escape for the passengers. Miss Ellen Boone was among the number on board on her way to the Sumter infirmary for treatment, being quite sick, and no doubt the shock was detrimental tc this sick lady. The train was detained about one hour when Road Master Davis and ' his crew arrived on the scene and the train was soon put back upon the track. The home of Mr and Mrs \V S Camlin was made happy by the arrival of a baby girl on February 16. They say "papa" is all smiles. Several pairs of young mules weie delivered in town the past week, one pair of which cost the owner $000. This is too much to pay for farm mules. Quite a lot of shad have been sold on the streets here the past week. The most of them were brought here from Sautee ri^er. Our merchants here who are iu the lien aud mortgage business are * 3'lling horset-, mules, guano and other merchandise. Look eut, brother merchant, for next fall. Wo predict a wet year and a poor crop season. The farmers are setting the stakes for high-price cotton and a Sue crop at that?if this fails it will bring disaster to both farmer and merchant. Raise your provisions, brother farmer, and then after doing this, make all the cotton that you cau take care of. I believe our farmers will heed this warning; some of them at least have felt the sting of raising cottcu to buy corn, hay and bacon. The writer will plant one acre in sorghum' this season for mo lasses. Try this, Mr Farmer, for a money crop. 1 believe it will beat cotton. Subscriber. Moody Matters. Moody, February 28:?Rev Mr Bedenbaugh commenced a protracted meeting at Harmony church Sunday night to be continued probably through the week. Mr C A Camlin, who has been; quite sick, is convalescent. Miss Alma Woodham, the! teacher of the Oak Ridge school,! spent Sunday here with her sis. ter, Miss Glennie Woodham. Mr Preston Brantley of Georgetown is visiting relatives here. Mr Vance Wheeler spent the week-end with relatives at I Gourdins. Almost every farmer hereabouts1 has traded his old stock for new and is making more extensive preparations for farming than for several years. Mrs G W Camlin has been ser iously ill for some days but is somewhat better. Mr J B Crooks.of this vicinity, has moved to Benson to take charge of the farm for his aunts. Misses Mary and Janie Grayson. Mr Tommie Tisdale has moved to Sumter to live. Mr B L Thompson spent Saturday in Georgetown. Edgar. Foley's Kidney Kennedy is a safe and certain remedy for all kidney and bladder diseases, whether acute or chronic. It is a splendid tonic for middle aged and elderly people and a sure cure for all annoyances and irregularities of the kidneys and bladder.

JUSriCE LIMPS Id Catching the Man Higher up but Nabs the Little Fellows. % Justice has a streak of yellow, for she grips the little feliow, but her temper seems to mellow toward the man who's higher up. Though she ruus to fix her clutches on the one who steals as much as 50 ceuts, she limp3 on crutches toward the man who's higher up. If the duties are evaded, quick is righteous wrath paraded, for the few who simply aided?not the man who's higher up. 'lis a most obuoxious feature: Justice sorely needs a teacher; worst of sinners uot the creature, but the man who's higher up. Little chap must go to prison for a crime not reallv his'n, while cham\ pagne is is ever fizzin* for the man who's higher up. When a trust is caught at schem ing, Justice fakes its menials seeming not to e'en be faintly dreaming of the man who's higher up. Ever calm her way pursuing, Justice notes what some are doing, but this duty is eschewing when the man is higher up. Justice should take off her blinder, to the smaller fry be kinder,and. before her or behind her, grab riiat man who's higher up. How Good \ews Spread. "I am 70 years old and travel most of the time," writes B F 'Polson, of Elizabethtown, Ky. -'Everywhere I go I recommend Electric Bitters, because I owe 1113* excellent health and vitality to them. They tft'eet a cure every time.'' They never fail to tone the stomach, regulate the kidneys and bowels, stimulate the liver, invigorate the nerves and purity the blood.
