A Fortunate Editor.
Blitor Ajer, who is also tbe
pablaher of his newspaper, the
Florscce Daily Times and allied
areekly publications, announces that
be will let the contract at once
for the erection of a modern,
story horns for his newspapers.
The building will he
equipped with steam heat, hot
wad cold water and elevator service.
Friend Ayer modestly announces
that he is now in a fair way to
realize the fruits of twenty yean
of arduous and unremitting toil.
We congratulate our contemporary
most heartily on the prosperity
that these plans bespeak. Certainfy
one who has been in harness
for twenty years deserves such a
reward for his efforts as seems to
hav? fcttondpd Kditor Aver in his
business affairs.
Without the least tinge of envy
<for our friend's good fortune, we
nay say that having already given
Bear!/ twelve of the best years of
our life to the editorial sanctum,
are have no very sanguine hope
of attaining to the degree of
aucct-ss indicated by his being able
to plan toe construction of such
a building as he contemplates,
even should we be" able to keep
up the griud for another eight
year* The best we can hope for
is to be able to meet our weekly
pay-roll and hare enough left over
to keep the Sheriff from levying
on toe plant.
Unr friends are ofttimes more
candid than sweet.
The tish are biting, gentle
Annie, and soon also will be the
.mosquitoes.
^ La ?tetis county has organized a
boys' corn clu'tf with a membershij
of* 13*? youths. That looks
like 1 usicess.
If some people who want to
vote tbe country dry would first
vote themselves dry things would be
.a whrde lot better.
F;om many sources come re
\ <pies;s that we publish the new
game and tish law?especially
t
the hsh Jaw uffectir. "illiamsk
burg county. We asked
^ Senior Buss to trj t us a
copy soon as
? we get hold of it. the full text
HE <>f the new law will be given.
Mr J C Graham's phenomenal
yield of seventy-six five hundj
red weight bales of cotton on
j fitty*four acres but carries out
The Record's oft iterated claim
that the possibilities of Williamsburg's
soil and climate, under
'intelligent cultivation, are surpassed
by that of no other county
1 in the S'ate
'
=====
The great Doctor Hathaway of
Atlanta?you ve heard of him. It
seems that he "hath-away" to
relieve the unwary wayfarer of his
superfluous coin with neatness and
despatch. The Record several
years ago refused to accept an
advertising contract for this con.
eern, which to our mind spelled
Q-u-a-c-k.
Our esteemed Florence contemporary,
the Daily Times, exhibits
a considerable degree of
nerve in claiming Mr J H Woodberry,
of JohnsonTille, for Florence
county, when as a matter of fact
he was being educated at the expense
of'this county?being one
of the two beneficiary cadets at
the Citadel Academy apportioned
to Williamsburg?when he won the
West Point scholarship.
Last week we reproduced from
the Johnston News-Monitor an
article about comets, and inadvertently
omitted to give credit
to our contemporary for the<(bor
row." We regarded the article as
a?.rather, illuminating p one on . a
subject that is. just at the present
time, of uncommon interest. In
a brief compass Brother Bailey
told several very interesting and
i informing things about comets
and it affords ns pleasure tc
give hiss. paper the credit tc
which it is justly entitled.
Quoth our always interesting
contemporary, the Florence Times,
in a recent issue: "Rockefeller is arranging
to return to the J most
needy of the people the fortune
that he wrested .for the masses
through the most wonderfully
organized charity that has ever
been undertaken, etc." Touching
the foregoing remarkable assertion
we are curious to know from
/
Friend Ayer first, where he got
the idea that John D? the head
devil of the Standard Oil monopoly,
ever wrested anything for
the masses in the process of his
benevolent assimilation of their
earnings; second, it wonld be
equally interesting to know through
what "organized charity" the aforesaid
John D was able to "wrest
for the masses" his enormous fortune.
k Birthday Function.
Miss Jane Gilland was "at
home" to her little friends Friday
afternoon, the occasion being
the celebration of her third
birthday. About eighteen or
; twenty children were gathered
i on the lawn and several hours
! nf pninvpd in thp ikii.i1
! childish fashion.
Dainty refreshments were
| served at prettily appointed
tables, with pink as the dominant
color effect?pink cream,
pink cake, the birthday cake, a
thing of beauty and artistic con
struetion,being ornamented with
j three pink candles, corresponding
to the number of years which
(have coine unto the winsome
little hostess.
A Timely Protection.
Everyone knows the after effects
of La Grippe are often more dangerous
than the. disease. So often it
leads to pneumonia, which a weak
heart action makes fatal. La Grippe
coughs that straiu aud weaken the
system yield quickly to the streugth1
ening qualities of Foley's Honey and

At Charlotte, N C., last week in
broad daylight and on one of the
principal thoroughfares of the city,
negroes held up and assaulted a
white woman and her child, robbing
them of their pocket books. This is
one of a series of outrages that have
recently been committed in the same
vicinity and the perpetrators
made good their escape.
The Horry Herald last week told
a harrowing tale of a negro family
named Mention being burned to
death in the ruins of their cabin.
The tragic occurrence took place
near the Kenawba Lumber Com*
pany'a plant, in that county, and
the whole family of seven members

shrouded in mystery.
