' Death* " - Th? entire State will hear with the deepest regret ofrthe death of Col. B. W.Edwards, of Darlington. He was one of the most j prominent men in the State. He was State Senator from Darlington a number of terms, and his public life had been of such a nature as tQ put him prominently before the people of the State as a suitable man for Governor. Colonel Edwards was a leading Baptist and was the President of the State Baptist Con vention before the election of Col. J. ?. Hoyt. He bad held many responsible positions of both a pnbHc and private character, and at the time of his death was-a trustee of the Glemson Agricultural College, a trustee of I Furm&n University acd a trustee of the South Carolina University. Col. Edwards was once a lawyer practising at this B-?r for some years. He removed to Darlington sometime before the war. Keligious.

Mr. Editor: We have had a hard fight wiib the grass but we are about through now. Crops are looking well, cotton especially. The oat crop is good which comes in a go >d time. We have been too busy to talk politics much, but think Tillmanites and Anti-Till raanites are about equally divided. The most intelligent being against Tillmao. Tbe Tillmanites here seem to think if Tiilman was Governor they could sail throoghJheir crops on flowery beds of ease. You ask one why be is for Tiilman and he will say "oh, be is a farmer," just like be. was al! tbe farmer in South Carolina. On last Wednesday night a negro boy about 16 years old attempted to enter Mrs. Mary Smith's room. Mrs. Smith gave the alarm and he jumped out of tbe window. When he was caught next morning be said be thought she had money and he intended to kitl lier aud get her money. Mrs. Smith is about 80 years old. She lives with her son in-law. Dr. C. S. Britton.
