The match game of bajl which will be play? ed at Base Ball Park this afternoon between the Fats and Leans has excited a good deal of interest.' The umpire is Col. James D. G ra- : ham. It is known far and wide that Col.

Lewis Chapel, June 28, 1887. ? i- ll s- - The Woodward Monument* Tbe Woodward Monument which bas just been completed at the Sumter Marble Yard is as fine a gpecioen of workmanship of the kind as we have ever seen anywhere. The marble 1 of this monument was shipped directly from 1 Italy to the Sumter Marble Yard and it is of the finest quality. The monument is ten feet io height and is most artistically finished. It is surmounted by a beautiful wreathed and draped ure. The die is relieved by raised panels upon which appears the inscription containing a snort biographical sketch of the deceased. Above this are carved garlands of lilies and rose.work. The inscription on the first side of the mon? ument is as follows : Stephen D. Woodward was born near Bish opviile in Sumter County, S. C., on 21st day of July. 1848, and was killed on this spot October'1st, 1886. On the second side : In appreciation of the high moral character and manly principles of Stepben D. Wood? ward, we the ladies of Bishopvilie and sur? rounding country do erect this Monument to bis memory. Tears were shed ton od thee whilst dying, From eyes unused to weep, Andsroat?d the spot where thou art lying Sb?Tr tears tbe cold turf steep. On the third side : * We- boobrbim because his worth . Our honor well demands, And we will falsehood's aim avert Ry this labor of our bands. Friendship's ties, so strange so dear, By death cannot be riven. Bis name still lives in memory here, His soul at rest in Heaven. On the fourth side: He was scrupulously honest, modest to a fault, and virtuous to a degree worthy of em? ulation. In the autumn of 1883 he made a pqblic profession of faith in Christ and con? nected himself with Piedmont Baptist Church, in which he lived a consistent irreproachable life. (Rev. B. G. Covington says of him : Among the hundreds I have baptizeed, I bave not found one whose Christian character I esteem more highly.) He was a good, trae honest, Christian man. Ob last Monday this monument was taken to BisbopVdle Where it will be erected by Mr. W. P. Smith, whose skillful workmanship OB the same speaks most eloquently for the man? ser in which work is exectued at the Sumter Marble'Yard. Mayesville Personals. Miss Annie Steele, of Yorkvil?e, is visiting her sister, Mrs. Robert Chandler. Miss Carrie Chandler, of Manning, is visit? ing ber sister, Mrs. J. E. Mayes.

Mr. Editor : Your correspondent had tbe good fortune to be present last Thursday even? ing at a Sociable given by Mr. and Mrs. J. Rembert Mayes at their home, in honor of j Misses Mary and Sallie Darr who are visiting them at Mayesville. By 8.30 o'clock the guests had very nearly al! arrived and by nine the scene was one of beauty to look upon as the f?ir sex was in the majority. Among the fair visitors at Mayesville, I noticed Misses Carrie Chandler, Augusta Moses and Estelle Iseman were present. This social gathering was one event to be long remembered by the Maj cs vi li ans as it completely awakened that little town ont of ber general quietude. About midnight the participants began to take their leave, one and all avering that this party was the pleasantest of the season, and acknowledging the untiring attention of the host and hostess. Yours until next time, GUEST. _ 1 _ Lynchburg Items? LYNCHBURG, June 28, 1887. Mr. Edite : The Beulah picnic will take place on next Friday and on the following day there will be one at Crooked Branch. Mr. Rowland Smith and others are exerting themselves to have ose at Lynchburg on next Monday. The match game of ball between the Shiloh and Lynchburg dabs was played on last Fri? day, and the score stood 52 to 8 in favor of Lynchburg. At the conclusion of the game the crowd was invited to the residence of Mr. John Hawkins and all present had a most de? lightful time. Tibe crops around Lynchbarg are looking well. I have never seen the cotton crop in a 6net condition at this season of the year. Mr. Andrew Mell wain died on last Monday of typhoid dysentery. John R. Keels, Esq., and wife, who have been spending a while in this section, have returned to Sumter. Our people are very proud of Mr. Keels and predict for bim a bright future. I am told that the voice of the politician will soon be beard in the land. Capt. D. E. Keels, one of the shrewdest politicians in the State says that our next County campaign' will be one of the warmest and most aggres? sive ever seen in this County for years. Yours truly, LYNCHBURG. -aa? ? ? < Providence Items. PROVIDENCE, June 27, 1887. Mr. Editor: The hot, dry spell was broken on last Monday, June 2Otb, by a good rain. The gardens were almost destroyed. I have never seen a drought of sncb short duration play such havoc with the gardens. There was a great deal of hail accompanying the rain, and it played sad havoc with some of the crops on Mr. Joshua Myer's plantation. One field of cotton of about 6 acres was strip? ped clean-not hardly a leaf being left on it. Mr. J. D. Myers had a 9 acre field of corn that was stripped almost clean. He is afraid that it will be a total loss. The wind was ifso very high, at times almost equaling a lomado. Old Providence seems to have sus? tained most of the damage. Mr. Josbna Meyers bad his gin house blown down and three large trees near hts yard. Mr. John Ballard had his storehouse destroyed by a tree falling acros3.it. The largest limbs snap? ped like pipe stems. Providence Sunday School will give tSSwr^. Annual Pic Nie on Saturday July lGtb. The crops are still looking fine and with good seasons, we will make the largest crop that bas been made in five years. Cotton blooms are as thick in rome fields around here is they usually are in the middle of July. ~ j Yours truly, PROVIDENCE. - - ? i - - Sumter County Bible Society, The Quarterly Meeting of the S.
