Death of Mr.. F. D. Green.
We copy from the Lancaster Ledger, the
following notice of the dea?b of Mr. Francis
D. Green, which occured at bis home near
Lancaster on the 30th ult. The deceased was
a native of this county and the father of our
fellow-townsman J. T. Green Esq :
Mr. francis: D. Green, one of the most
respected citizens of our county, died, at his
home five mi.es West of this place, cn the
30th May, 1888. 'For several months Mr. G.
had been in wretched health, and his sickr 3
finally developed into congestion of the br .un
accompanied by paralysis of the tongue and
throat. For two weeks prior to his death he
suffered intensely.
Mr. Green was born near Bishopville, in
Sumter County, S. C., ou April 13, 1825.
About the age of 25 he was married to Miss
Susana Brown, a sister of Mr. D. W. Brown
of Lancaster and moved to Lancaster Coun?
ty. A few years later he was left a widower
and afterward married Mi*s Virginia Cureton,
a daughter of the late Thos. K- Cureton.
He leaves a widow and seven children to
ujoura his loss who have the warm sympathy
of their many friends throughtout the county.
Mr. Green was one of the best of citizens
and was held in high esteem by every one.
He was a man of the highest integrity and of
unblemished character. He was not a mem?
ber of any church, yet he was a regular and
constant attendant at church and an ardent
supporter of its demands. Truly tbe spirit of
a good maa Has passed to eternal rest.
Married.
On "Wednesday evening, May 6th, at the
residence of the bride's mother, by Rev. John
Kershaw, Mr. John Jos. Morrissey and Miss

Fine Peaches.
Mr. J. W. Cooper, of Mayesville, sent U3
tbjs morning two very handsome peaches of
the "Hale's Early" variety,;the largest of
which measured nearly nine inches in circum?
ference. He says that he has been using
peaches for about two weeks from the tree
from which these were taken.
Explanation.
Miss Girardeau regrets that owing to the
unavoidable haste with which the invitations
to the College Commencement were issued,
some names were omitted.
The list was hurriedly and imperfectly
made out, and she hopes that it will be un?
derstood that any omission was through in?
advertence.
The friends and patrons of the College are
always cordially welcomed at any of the
school entertainments.
Feather Kenovator.
We have in our town one of the latest im?
proved machines for cleansing feathers. The
management announces that they will be here
only a limited time. They have every facility
for handling beds and guarantee satisfaction.
One of their several soliciting agents will call
and present the merits of the business Treat
them courteously and reap a much-needed
benefit. Beds are collected aod delivered free
several miles io the country. The gentlemen
operating have been in the State several months
and are well endorsed. The beds are safe in
their hands-try them, you will not regret it.
The Lost Fonnd.
.Our citizens no doubt remember the inter?
est that was aroused sometime io the early
part of January, 1887, over the disappearance
of Miss Lizzie Brown, the daughter of the late
A.W.Brown, on the eve of her departure,
with her brother and sister, for Texas, to live
with their grandfather; and that after nu?
merous efforts to find what had become of her,
and a delay of several months, the other
children went to Texas without her. So far
as we know, her guardian and relatives have
been unable, np to a short while back, to find
out anything about her ; but the mystery
was ended last week by ber marriage "at
home," to Mr. J. J. Morrissey, a near neigh?
bor, a notice of which appears under the mar?
riage bead.
St. Joseph's Academy.
The twenty-fourth annual commencement
of St. Joseph's Academy will be celebrated
on Thursday, 21st instant. The graduates
are: Miss Edith M. DeLorme, of Snmter,
Miss Sallie Levi, of Manning, Miss Jessie
Smith, of Sumter, and Miss Emma Strauss,
of New York. Medals will be awarded for
proficiency in music to Miss Sallie Levi and
Miss Katie Reardon.
The rare character of the commencement
exercises of St. Joseph's Academy nas long
been the theme of praise by all who have
ever attended any of the exhibitions that are
held annually at this institution of learning.
These celebrations are always grand and
brilliant and never fail to excite the admira?
tion of all, and consequently citizens from
different parts of the State are always glad
to come to these Commencement Feasts of
St. Joseph's Academy.
Silk Culture.
Mrs. Z P. Moses expects te ship in a few
days to the U. S. Agricultural Department
?ix pounds of silk Cocoons and a lot of eggs,
the result ef her season's work with 20,000
worms raised from eggs furished from the
Department. Had it not been for tue cool
wet wentber about ten day s ago which hap?
pened to come just at the time that the worms
w?re getting upon the frames to spin, and
whicb chilled them, causing the death of a
large number, she would bare had a ? .ch
Jarger yield. Mrs. Moses bas given .u<jch
attention and study to silk culture, and says
that she is satisfied that many ladie3 and
young peeple in our country could engage io
it with paying results. She bas some very
pretty specimens of silk of ber raising that
?be will be pleased to show to persons who
feel an interest ia the matter. The Govern,
ment isendevoring to foster tbe industry by
supplying eggs ta the spring, and buying the
silk when made.
The Eclectic College.
Music Hall presented an interesting scene
on last Wednesday evening. It was the oc?
casion ot the Commencement exercises of the
Eclectic College. The Hall was full to over?
flowing and the event wa3 a brilliant one.
Wherever the eye turned it beheld life, beauty
and coltnre, and under such soft and elevat?
ing influences the following programme was
most successfully and admirably carried out:
Opening Chorus-Gently fall the dews of
eve-School.
Salutatory-Miss Emmie Hav/kins.
Trio-Waltz-Misses Kate Moses, Lou
Green and C. M. Girardeau.
Prize Essay-Won by Miss Carrie Conyers
-Read by Dr. Auld.
Inst. Solo-La Reine des fleurs-Miss Ruth
Tindal.
Golden Reports-[These are bestowed on
those scholars who have maintained as aver?
age of 95 out of a possible 100, during the
entire school term.]
Quartette-March-Misses Lawton, Rich?
ardson, Harby and Brown.
Diplomas-Misses Ruth Tindal and Emmie
Hawkins.
Inst. Solo-L. Argentine-Miss Belle San?
ders.
Valedictory-Miss Ruth Tindal.
Dnet-From Zampa-Misses Ruth Tiudal,
C. M. Girardeau.
The Rev. G. B. Moore, of Darlington, de?
livered the address. His subject was, "Is
Life Worth L;ving?" The address was
chaste, scholarly and profound, but entirely
too long, and many of bis bearers began to
think very seriously of the question, "Is Life
worth living?"
The Eclectic College is now on a firm basis
and is winning for itself a reputation that is
goat enviable indeed. \ -
\
Sumter Institute.
? baccalaureate sermon sounds big for
Sumter, but nevertheless a most excellent one
was delivered with peculiar force and effeet at
Institute Hall on last Sunday evening by the
chaplain, Dr. N. W. Edmunds. Th?3 new
feature of the commencement exercises is not
without its charm and will contribute no little
to the completeness of these events.
On Monday afternoon, from 5 to 8, the
large ball of the Institute was thrown open
for the inspection of the extensive and elegant
assortment of works of art, executed by the
pupils of the school and by a few outside art
students. The correspondent of the News and
Courier says: "Every variety of drawing'and
painting in water and oil colors, on all kinds
of materials, working on brass sheets, kc,
were arranged with taste and judgment.
Everything was so well done that it is scarce?
ly possible to select specimens, but the follow?
ing were so uncommonly fine that I cannot
pass them by :
"A Russian moonlight scene, by the art
teacher. Mrs. Kate Derby Jackson, was, of
course, the finest piece of painting in the ex?
hibition. It is excellent in. drawing and
coloring, and stamps the artist as first-rate in
her department. A copy of the same subject
and Indian Summer, Blush roses, Shetland
Isles, (a marine painting,) all by Mrs. W. H.
Yates; Chenango Valley, by Miss Terry ; the
same ?subject and Fall" Crocuses, by Miss
Cordes, of Florida ; Landscape and pansies,
by Miss Mamie Edmunds ; the Narrows on
the Hudson, by Miss Mills; the same subject,
by Miss Barnett ; The Infant Samuel (pencil,)
by Miss Lillie Fraser; basket of fruit and
flowers on china, by Miss May Bossard ;
wild roses, by Mm Lapsley; flowers painted
on satin, by Miss Gussie Solomons ; flowers
on wood, by Miss Frierson, of Anderson ;
rabbits (pencil) and painting on velvet, by
Miss Emmie James, of Darlington; pencil
drawings by Misses Harrie, Kershaw and
Gibson."
"The above are among the best works exhib?
ited. There were numerous delineations of
flowers, cupids, animals, &c, on hammered
brass, and some exquisite tapestry painting.
One of the most interesting features was the
j first steps in dawing. Mrs. Jackson teaches
all the pupils to draw by the eye alone: no
measurements are al lowed. Your correspond?
ent has seen several of the exhibits of the
Charlotte yoong ladies, but considera the
works shown at the Sumter Institute equal to
any of them."
The concert that evening was simply grand
and intoxicated the audience with delight.
Miss Terry and Mrs. McCallum the music
teachers are entitled to no little credit for the
success of the concert on Monday evening.
The following is the programme :

1. Rhapsodie Hongroise, No. 2-Liszt

quent and able address.
To-night the graduating exercises will
round off the commencement occasion of the
Sumter Institute for the year 1887-88. .>
A Big Day.
The Sunday School picnic at Bethel CboP?bSj
on last Saturday was an exceedingly interest-*
ing and pleasant affair. The address by Dr.
H. T. Abbott suited the occasion most admi?
rably and was enjoyed with keen relish. Dr.
Edwin J. Rembert, of Rafting Creek, followed
next, and delivered a most scholarly and fin?
ished address. The Doctor's speech was a
paragon of eloquence and it smacked of gen?
uine originality. Mayesvilie's prince of ora?
tors, Col. J. Harvey Wilson, was next intro
duced, and it is useless to say that Col. Wil?
son made an eloquent speech at Bethel or
any where else. It is taken for granted. He
achieved high distinction in that respect in
the House of Representatives several years
?go and was known a3 the "eloqueut
Wilson."
Col. Marion Sanders, Capt. E. Scott Car?on,
and other candidates were present at this fes?
tival, but they reserved their campaign thun-.-j
der for later on in the season when aliare ex?
pected to meet and remind each other 'of the
time when Moses saw the promised land from
afar.

KNOXVILLE; TENS., July 2, 188^' '
I have had catarrh in the head for six years.
I went to a noted doctor and he treated me
for it, but could not cure me. he said. I was
over fifty years old and gave up to die. I
had a distressing cough: my eyes were swol?
len and I ara confident I could not have lived
without a change. I sent and got one bottJe
j of your medicine, used ..it, and felt better.
j Then I got four more, and thank God! it cured
! me. Use this any way you may wish for the
