Oh, That Grame!!
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.
Graham bas served his country most gallantly
in positions great and small, but we think
that the Colonel has been called cpon to act j
in a capacity this afternoon that will not add
much lustre to bis past record. Besides it j

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.

A Delightful Evening.
SUMTER, S. C., June 27, 1887.
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.

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.

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.

Physicians don't hesitate to use, prescribe
OT endorse Westmoreland's Calisaya Tonic,
as will be seen by reading the following:
COLUMBIA, S. C" July, 1884.
Westmoreland Bros.-Gentlemen : 1. have
very thoroughly tested your Calisaya Tonic,
and do not hesitate to pronounce it a most
remedial agent. As a stomachic and general
tonic it is unsurpassed. For eliminating ma?
larial poisons from the system and repairing
their deleterious effects ; for rebuilding, rein?
vigorating and giving tone to the system
when reduced by protracted or severe fevers
or other debilitating causes, there is in my
judgment no other preparation in the whole
field of medicines equal lo it. But especially
is it useful in malarial disorders, both as a
curative and a prophylactic.
