Monday night is said to have destroyed
a large proportion of the
vegetables that weathered the long
drought.
It is our desire to devote one page

therefore invite any of them to

Just write it in your own words; we
will put it in shape for publication.

The ceremony took place at 6 o'clock
and was solemnized by Father
Lanagan of Aiken.
The home was artistically decorated
for the occasion. In the parlor
the color scheme was white an#
green, and this effect was carried
out in every detail adding charm
and beauty. In the dining-room
pink roses were used to advantage.

maids, as follows: Miss Emily
Brockington with Mr Geo Seignious,
brother of the bride; Miss Eugenia
Salley with' Mr Holmes Springs of

Alma Wannamaker with Dr Ned
Durant, of Georgetown. The groom
entered with Mr Arthur Ehrich of
Georgetown as best, man.
The bride was beautifully gowned
in white messaline with real orange
blossoms, while the bride's maids
were all prettily gowned in white,
carrying pink ::oses.
Immediately after the ceremony
refreshments were served.
Receiving at the door were: Mr
and Mrs John Cart, white Miss
Marjorie Gaillard of Charleston kept
the bride's register.
During the evening several selections
were rendered by the orchestra,
and the Mendelssohn Choral
Club rendered a very pretty selection.
Miss Seignious is the only
daughter of Mrs Geo Seignious, of
this city, and enjoys a large circle
of friends, not only in this city, but
throughout the State.
Mr Rhem is a prosperous young
business man residing near Georgetown,

i Andrews, April 25:?Mr Editor,
! don't be discouraged. Just as soon
; as the county convention meets next
Monday there will come no doubt a
full crop of candidates. It will take
one sheet of The Record to hold their
good promises to the voters. Our
people here have vowed to vote only
for candidates to succeed themselves
who have done their duty to the
whole people, and where they have
not done so, to vote for a new man
for the place. We hope all the officers
in our county have done their
! full duty. f
We have had several refreshing
1 j rains during the past week, and
crops are germinating nicely now.
1 Rev Mr Bedenbaugh, of Harpers
! circuit, has been conducting a series
' i of meetings at St Paul's Methodist
church and we hope that much good
has been accomplished. *

Big Real Estate Deal.
The biggest deal in farming land
' that has taken place in this county in
1 along time'was made here recently
when 1,566 acres of land near Heinei
' i mann changed hands. This large
i tract, owned by Pitts Brothers of
1 ( Sumter, was bought by Mrs J P Gam1
b!e,the purchase price being $30,000,
1 a little less than $20 an acre. This is
a pretty good price for Williamsburg
, dirt,considering the fact that only 500
1 j acres of the land wa? cleared. Ten
years ago this same land could hardly
have been sold for $5 an acre.
The Cold Snap.
, From what can be learned in con;
versation with parties from differi
ent sections of the county the cold
weather and frost have not done a
, great amount of damage so far as
- can 1>e noticed at this time. Cotton,
if up at all, is small and a few warm
days will restore its vitality, while
u- ?TTio
corn seems uj ik umujui&u. *uv
greatest amount of damage is sustained
by truck-growers. Beans an i
other early vegetables are partly
: killed and what survives will be
- of inferior quality. Altogether the
outloe k in the county is not near
r so bad as it might have been.
! Worse Than Bullets.
Bullets have often caused less
i suffering to soldiers than the eczema

forty years. "But Bucklen's Arnica

One of (lie Smltlu.
Representative Scott, of Kansas,
was examining a witness before the J
House Commjftee on Agriculture,
of which he is chairman, on his bill' /
to prohibit gambling in cotton and <j
grain.
During the hearings a man who j!?9
had been paying close attention and
making notes began to ask questions. 'J9
"Will the gentleman please state
his name?" asked Mr Scott.
"Smith."
"Please state your full name."
"Ellison DuRant Smith."
"Yes, yes, I know,".said Scott;
but there are many Smiths, you :
know, and that name signifies nothing.
Where are you from and what , jjjH
do you represent?"
"I am from the United States
Senate," replied the questioner, who
was Senator Smith of South Caro- ; Jg'
Whereupon Representatives Scott
took off his eyeglasses, rubbed them j
vigorously, pulled at his mustache,
and whispered: "You may proceed."?
