Special to The County Record.
Lake City, June IS:?Yesterday
morning, the horse that Mr A E Hill,
a prominent citizen of Cooper postoffice,
was driving became frightened
at the shifting engine of a freight
train at the local station and commenced
running before Mr Hill
* *
realized the danger, causing uic
reins to fall and thereby placing Mr
Hill in a most perilous position.
For a few seconds it seemed that
Mr Hill would be instantly killed,
should he attempt to jump from
the buggy or should the horse cross
the railroad in front of the engine.
After dashing the buggy against a
telegraph pole, throwing Mr Hill
out and racing back across the railroad,
the animal was stopped. Mr
Hill's right hand was badly lacerated,several
bones being fractured,and
it was necessary for several stitches
to be taken.
Almost before Dr Eaddy had nnished
performing the operation upon
Mr Hill's hand, he had a call to Mr
Godwin's plantation near town to
attend a plow hand, who had his
arm broken when the mule he was
driving became frightened and
started to run, throwing him and
causing his arm to be broken. Verily,
yesterday seems to have been the
day when the masters of domitae
naturae were the recipients of her
ill temper.
Mr John 0 Green has organized a
class which he is endeavoring to
teach the art of walking, one-stepping,
lame ducking and anything
but dancing. This class comprises I
about thirty of the younger set,
who show remarkable potential ability
to master the new steps, which
are not only simple, but beautiful
and graceful. The auditorium has
been used for the afternoon and
evening classes.
Mrs Emma Ellis, who has been
teaching school during the past
session at McClellanville, is at home
with her parents, Rev and Mrs
Ari&li, for the vacation.
Among the college students at
home for the summer holidays are:
Talmage Askins of Furman; Ashton
H Williams of Georgetown univers- j
ity; D Carl Cook and Richardson
Chandler, graduates of Furman Fitting
school, and Dixie Caldwell of
Clemson college.
Mrs M A Woods left this morning
for Columbia, where she will
* ' r\
make her home in the iinure, ut
Woods having gone to that city
recently and located for the practice
of his profession.
Messrs J C Lynch and B F Brockington
of Cowards were in town
yesterday on business.
Hon W H Whitehead, Jr, stood
the State bar examination in Columbia
this week, passing most
creditably, and now has his license
to practice the profession of the law
in South Carolina, and is located
here for that purpose.
Miss Blanche Stuckey is at home
after a week's visit to friends in
Florence, and has as her guest, Miss
Mildred Muldrow of Florence.
Mrs E P Bond has returned to
* - l a x.
her home here, alter a Driei visit to
her home at Mullins.
Miss Laura Mae Rodgers has returned
from Charleston, where she
has been under treatment at the
Baker sanitarium. Her many friends
are glad to hear of her recovery.
Mr Jack Epps, who has been a
~ victim of the typhoid germ, is at the
Baker sanitarium, and is greatly
improved.
Prof H H Brown, who has successfully
superintended the school at
Cades during the past year, was in
'town Friday. Mr Brown tells us that
this coming week will see the first
issue of a weekly newspaper at
Cades, of which he will the editor.
The paper will be called The EnterTHE
JOY OF DANCING EXERCISE
"Very lew v.-omen or men seem to care to Taaeo or
?et Dancing Exercise unless they are assured the
.freedom from aching feet that Allen's Foot-Ease,
the antiseptic powder to he shaken into the shoes,
always gives. Since the tendency to hold Dancing
partie?nas become almost a daily and hourly necessity
in every community, the sale of Allen's Foot-;
Ease so the Druggists report, has reached the highwater
mark. Sold Everywhere 25c Trial package,

prise, and your correspondent pre- !
diets for it not only an "enterprise,"
tut a success. Mr Brown also told
us of the school, modern and up-to-1
date in every detail, with water j
works installed, which will be under
construction by the latter part of
next week; also, various other improvements
in our little neighbor
city.
Misses Ruth Tomlinson and Eloise
Brock, two very charming and popular
young ladies of Cades, were in
town yesterday.
The Kingstree boys came up
Thursday afternoon for a game of
ball against our boys. An interest
ing game was played and our boys J
won by the score of 7 to 4.
The street sprinkler was in .evidence
Monday of this week, but has
not been used since on account of i
the several showers since then. The 1
sprinkler was recently purchased by !
the town, and fills a long-felt need
here, doing much to relieve the dis
agreeableness of the dust during
the warm summer rronths. LBN.'

Cotton Blossoms Received.
I
The little paragraph in The Rec- j
ord last week, stating that the first
cotton blossom was reported from j
Marion and enquiring "What is the "
matter with Williamsburg?" has {
been the means of placing a num- |
ber of blossoms on our desk since its
publication. The first to reach us }
was sent from Taft by Mr W R Mc- *
Connell and was received Saturday <
afternoon. j
Monday morning Mr Geo F Chan- I
dler of Rome brought to our office 1
a splendidly developed stalk of the j
Southern staple with four bios- j
soms and not less than forty well s
developed buds. 1
One of our enterprising and in- J
dustrious colored subscribers.Lisbon
McCrea, of Fowler, also brought in j
several blossoms Monday. (

whose postoffice is New Zion, but 1
who resides in that territory recent- *
ly annexed to Williamsburg from

Cbamberlatn's Colic, Cbolera and
Diarrhoea Remedy.
Every family without exception
should keep this preparation at hand
during the hot weather of the summer
months. Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is
worth many times its cost when
needed and is almost certain to oe
needed before the summer is over.
It. has no superior for the purpose
for which it is intended. Buy it
now. For sale by all dealers.
The fact that Tennessee Democrats
have nominated General Rye
for Governor does not necessarily
signify that they are dry.

Now is the time to get rid of your
rheumatism. Try a twenty-five cent
bottle of Chamberlain's* Liniment
and see how quickly your rheumatic
pains disappear. Sold by all dealers, j
RHEUMATISM ARRESTED
Many people suffer the tortures of
lame muscles and stiffened joints because
of impurities in the blood, and each succeeding
attack seems more acute until
rheumatism has invaded the whole system.
To arrest rheumatism it is quite as important
to improve your general health as
to purify your blood, and the cod liver oil
in Scott's Emulsion is nature'sgr eat bloodmaker,
while its medicinal nourishment
strengthens the organs to expel the
impurities and upbuild your strength.
Scott's Emulsion is helping thousands
every day who could not find other relief.
Refuse the alcoholic substitutes.

Rev N B Clarkson.
(Sou. Christian Advocate, June 4.)
Tuesday morning we received *he
following telegram from Florence:
"Rev N B Clarkson died last night
after a few days' illness. His family
were with him. Interment at
Gaffney today. R E Turnipseed."
Thus passes away another one of
the "old guard." He was born on
John's Island, S C, September 23,
1839. He was reared in the Episcopal
church by a consecrated, Christian
mother. His education, like
that of many young men of his day,
was cut short, but he had received
a good foundation in the prepara-1
tory schools and by his own efforts
built well upon that. He married,
in 1862, Miss Laura V Gordon, of*
Williamsburg county, who preceded
him to the grave a few years ago.
Nine children were born to them,
five of whom still live and one of
whom, Rev G F Clarkson, is an
honored member of the South Carolina
conference.
Brother Clarkson was converted
and joined the Methodist church in
early manhood. He was licensed to
preach in 1877, and was admitted on
trial into the South Carolina conference
in 1880. He served important
charges with success, winning many
souls for Christ. Several years ago,
on account of physical infirmities,he
was forced to ask for the superannuate
relation.
He leaves a record of faithful,
painstaking work; and he left his
impress wherever he labored. To
the surviving members of the family
we tender our deepest sympathy.
Rev N B Clarkson was well
known in Walhalla and sections of
Oconee, he having resided in Walhalla
with his wife for a short while
some years ago, and on several occasions
visited here during the time
his son, Rr*v G F Clarkson, was
pastor of the Methodist churches at
Walhalla and Seneca. He was an
ahlp nrpacher. and an earnest worker
in the South Carolina conference for
a long term of years, retiring with
the superannuate relation a few
years ago.
The Courier joins with many other
friends of the deceased in extending
sympathy to the^ bereaved ones in
their sorrow.?Aeoicee Conner.
Cai't Keep It Secret.
The splendid work of Chamberlain's
Tablets is daily becoming more
widely known. No such grand remedy
for stomach and liver troubles
has ever been known. For sale by
all dealers.
