They say one of the largest LtV crowds ever seen in Spartanburg was ity there that day. It was a perfect jam inside and outside the tent. One of the riders fell from his horse during a race ju anil was seriously injnred. He was dragged out of the way and the perform-1 ^ ance continued as if nothing out of the | ordinary liud happened. Another Shooting Scrape. \Vh Dam thnt John Jeter, who lives oil Mr. 1>. 1'. Duncan's place in Union county, pot shot last Thursday morning by Tom Gist, both colored. \Yh h ive been unable to learn the particulars, but from what we can pa* her, it seems that Jeter and his wife had a row. and lie was ill treating his wife when Tom Gist, a brother of the woman, interferred an I emptied a load of shot into Jeter's stomach and arms. Jeter was seriously if not mortally wounded, but was not dead at last accounts. Negro Man Shot. Monday two negroes living on Mr. J. E. Lindsay's plantation, on l'acolet iii mo njijiei puruuu 01 me couiuy, became involved in a difficulty. Green Norris, a peaceful old negro, endeavored to make i>eace between the two other negroes, in doing this he received a wound from a pistol in the hands of one of the combatants, named Free. The ball entered and passed through Morris's bowels. Free is considered a bad character. Xorris is in a critical condition. Name of the third party not learned. Non dc Plumes. Some people peiaist in sending iaco-.nmunications with a ficticious signature and without their name. Wo have rspeatedly said we will not publish such contributions unless the name of the writer is also signed to the article. It is a waste of your time and ours to send in such article?,as they will surely go to the waste basket. We have received one from "an observer" that goes the way of the rest this week. We have about as much idea of who "an observer" is as we do about when the lirst snow will fall. If you don't care to sign your name along witli your non deplume, it you are not a regular correspondent., don't send it in. Thoroughly Equipped, The police of the town have been furnished by our up-to-date Mayor with electric Hash light bull's eye lanterns. They are operated with one hand. They are a great invention and a useful aitiele for the police. Willi one of t'.iese Hash lights in one hand and a reliable Colts in the other the police are a holy terror to the doers of evil deeds. Whistles have also been furnished the police, with i which they can call each other and | recognize at the same time who is making the call. This has supplied a loag fc.lt need of the police. Pretty Tittle Fishes. Zemp's Pharmacy has the latest attraction. lie has a fish aquarium of four departments in his store, which are veiy artistically arranged, containing sea wt;eu3 huu plants, imitation COlOiii.ll buildings and arches, and also about one hundred fish, gold fish, silver tisli and the beautiful Japanese gold fish. They dart and frolic around among the plants, through the windows, doors and 'nreho^ llm'? utu. ? ' T in the light as they dart hither and thither. It is a pretty sight and crowds are attracted to the Pharmacy to watch the playful little fellows. The children especially delight in watching them. Contract Given. The contract for putting in water works and filter plant at the Buffalo mill, has been awarded to Messrs. Walton and Wagner, of Rome, Ga., this week, and work will begin as soon as the materials arrive. The system is to extend throughout the town, and each house will be equipped with these modern conveniences. A sewerage system and electric lights will also be put in at an early date. Buffalo is going to be a model mill town. There will be some 12,000 feet of piping used for the water main. Col. Walton will not b9 here as his time is occupied elsewhere. Mr. Wagener will put in the plant. Wouldn't be Arrested. Will Cole, alias the "Kid,'' "Boots'' and possibly several other aliases, stole some money from a merchant Mr. Skelton, a few days ago and the police took up the job of running him iu. He made himself scarce and kept dark, but said that he would not be arrested. But May and Austell showed him a thing worth two of that. They knew he would steer clear of them so they employed other means and he walked into the trap. But when the police made an effort to arrest him he resisted, and during the scufile he somehow happened to get a pistol ball in his leg, then he wilted. lie is not seriously injured, but the trial will be delayed a few days. The Anvil Organized. Mr. C. E. Girardeau, of Savannah, Ga., has been in Union two weeks organizing an assembly of The Anvil.

Tuesday morning early the sad intelligence was received of the death of Mrs. Mary ltice at the home of her daughter, Mrs. fi. U. renin. Iler death occurred at 10:110 p.m., Monday, October '23rd. She was the wife of Col. S. M. 11 ice. Sr., one of Union's most prominent citizsns. She was the daughter of Mr. Thomas Carlisle, formerly of Union county. She was OS years of age. She leaves a husband, live sons: Spencer M., J. (}., Thomas, Ilazie and Quay; also four daughters: Mrs. G. C. Perrln, Mrs. .J. W. Wolling. of lirazil, Mrs. M.imie Mo Master, of Winnsboro, and Miss Kittie; at id a host of friends to mourn her departure. Hie had been in feeble health for two years or more, as a result of a stroke of paralysis. She was a consistent member of the First Methodist ehurch, of Union. She possessed a noble Christian character, and a kind, gentle and loveable dispositio i. In her death Union litis lost a noble Christian worn in. Our sympathies go out to the bereaved family in this sad hour of bereavement. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. W. A. Massbeau at the First Methodist church at 4:"JO p. 111., Tuesday. The remains were interred in the church yard in the presence of a host of sorrowing friends. The following pall bearers assisted in the last sad service to the departed loved one: T. C. Duncan, C. II. Peake, D. Wal-* lace, Maurice Moore, Wm. Culp, 11. F. Arthur, E. Nicholson and P. E. Fant. A Good Idea. Miss Carrie Southard, one of our upto-date teachers in Union Graded School No. 1, has introduced a new feature in her room, which strikes our fancy, and we think it was a wise thing to do. She luis nf t.he liftli irmilo o.<,l I..... arranged for the scholars to open up a general correspondence with 1 lie scholars of the same grade in one of the graded schools of Boston, Mass, We think tins will prove very instructive to the children of tbe schools at both ends of the line. The children here will write of southorn life, southern style, southern crops, met hods of producing same, our climatic advantages and numerous resources. In fact, will endeavor to show up our sunny south land in the best way they can. Their little northern friends will, of course, do likewise for their native land. An interest will thus he aroused and a desire will arise in these young minds to reach out and gather information. The information gathered ia this manner will he lasting and beneficial. It will also develop a desire for writing correct letters, using good grammar, good punctuation and writing a good hand. As each school will, no doubt, strive to excell the other in their letters. The tirst batch of these letters have already gone to the Boston school, and Miss Southard kindly allowed us to use a couple of them. We selected three from the lot; two of which appear on our tirst page; the other will api>ear next week. The subject this time seems to have been cotton, as all the letters refer principally to the planting and cultivation of the lleecy staple, and judging from the letters the little ones are pretty well up on everything pertaining to the cultivation of the fleecy staple.
