LAKE CITY LIGHTS AND SHADOWS. GOOB SAINS CHEER FARMERS - | P.M-'S SALARY RAISED -A MODERN ACHILLES-PERSONAL. Lake City, June 13:?Miss Ruth Williams went to Dillon Monday night to attend the double wedding of Misses Kate and Ella Braddy, which will take place Thursday evening. The actual marriage was preceded by a house party of three of four days, at which were the bridesmaids, of whom Miss Williams is one. * This section was visited by a good r rain Monday night. There were, in fact, several showers during the night. Sunday was probably regarded as a hot day. Without doubt it was the hottest dav we have had this ? year, and if a hotter ever came to this section, it exceeded Sunday's temperature by but a degree or two. The thermometer registered 100 at three o'clock and in some in-j struments held that point three or four hours. At eight o'clock Sun.day night it was 95 degrees. But for the brisk breeze, Monday would have been equally hot. Mrs J M Truluck has gone to Newark, N J, for a month's visit to her brother, Mr Sidney Sutcliffe. While away she will spend some time in the city of New York. Miss Katherine Myer of Pinopolis is visiting at Mr Geo C Haselton's, on Main street. Miss Blanche fhilips, wno is uik. ing a course at a business college in ! Atlanta, spent a day or two here i recently. i Mr Hartwell Williams of Cottageville is visiting at his uncle's, Dr A < H Williams's. He is a son of the late Dr Eugene Williams. Miss Gretchen Bass is spending 1 the week with relatives at Latta. i Revs C C Derrick and W A Fairy will exchange pulpits next Sunday, r' the former preaching at Kingstree and the letter here. The salary of the postmaster at Lake City has again been raised. It is now $1,500. Regularly during |, recent years it has been increased j about every six months, As these1 increases are due directly to increases in the business of the office, they are good evidence of the growth of w ^ this community. Miss Addie Rollins will go to ] <: Salem, Va, Thursday night to visit her uncle, Rev Furman B Martin. Miss Mollie Matthews returned to her home at Pocomoke, Md, Thursday after being here since the early ; fall. She is expected back about October, and her return will be , looked forward to with pleasure, as1 she is deservedly liked by all. The Misses Wolfe of Charleston visited their brother, Mr 0 P Wolfe, here last week. Mr and Mrs J S Williams have arrived from Danville, Va, and will be here until about the end of the year. They spend about one-half of each year here and the other half in Danville. Mr Williams is the book- 1 keeper for the King Tobacco ware-1 house. Well, well! A negro shot in the j heel. Is there any chance for re-' covery? Last Sunday George Rant, j having perhaps become finally convinced that it is folly to shoot a"nigger" in the head, put a 38 bullet "splang" in Johnson Singletary's heel. The ball entered from behind and ranged straight down through the center of the heel. Crider Rose performed an operation on the heel of Johnson's shoe and extracted the bullet therefrom. Inquiry fails to disclose whether "Surgeon" Rose used sterilized instruments or not. However,there can hardly be a doubt that antiseptics could have been employed on the heel that got the bullet, with advantage to the perfume thereof. The shot man seems to be * doing very well, but it appears almost too much to expect of nature that a "nigger" with a bullet hole j in the heel will escape. Messrs Fred B Thomas and S J : Tomlinson are organizing a company to build a complete and model telephone system at Olanta. The application for a franchise was made Tuesday of this week. The Farmers' Union Ginning and Manufacturing Co last Saturday unanimously voted to increase the capital stock to $10,000. WLB AFFAIRS AY ANDREWS. \ Prof. Tate Delivers Commencement Address?Personal. Andrews, June 12:?Misses Ulmer Crooks and Ethel Boyd are visiting at the home of Mr and Mrs W T Evans on Main street. Mr J K Marshall and Misses Mamie Pipkin and Ulmer Crooks were noted here Friday afternoon. Mrs L Z King and little son, Zim, Jr, of Florence spent several days tast week with Mrs King's parents, Mr and Mrs W S Camlin, at this place. From to-day's News & Courier it seems that Lake City is the first to produce a cotton bloom this year. We have a plenty of forms and shall doubtless have the blooms in a few days. Mr W R Card in passed through town last Friday en route t:> Georgetown. Superintendent W H Andrews, of the G & W R R, spent a short while at the home of the writer on business Friday afternoon. Our farmers are still in serious need of rain. We have as yet had very little rain in this section,but we can only hope for relief in the future. Mr and Mrs W B Blakeley, of this place, made a trip to Jacksonville last week, visiting relatives they had not seen in thirty years. We hope them a pleasant trip.
