The-Herald Square Ot>era Company
rill play two nights in Union, to-night
,ud to-morrow night. It is ueedless to
ay to those who attended their perforranco
here last season, that it is a good
how. Hut for the benefit of those who
rere not fortunate enough to be present
ipon the former occasion we will say
hat it wras by far the finest troupe that
tlayed in Union last season, and a treat
1 in store for all. They had a crowded
touse when here hist season and we !* piak
for them a good audience this
ime. See their ad. in another place.

Spilled in the Road.
Two of our young friends). Messrs.
lilton and Henry McNeace, who have
een rusticating in the couutry for
everal days having a big time driving,
iding and hunting about the couutry
[ot piled in a heap a few days ago. It
eetns they were spending a few days at
he homo of their frieud Mr. W. T.
lolcomb, and from there they had been
aking trips to various points, driving
frank the famous spiuter. This mule is
[entle as a lamb, and would not hurt
, child, but the boys struck out for
,ockhart one morning, last week and
ust before petting there, they must have
;ol to arguing about the political situ>tion
and Old Frank became thoroughly
lisgusted, seeing that McKinley is elecld
i.i spite of everything we could do
md the trusts are in the saddle. Maybe
)ld Frank thought the trusts had goten
into the buggy he was pulling, and
le thought this an excellent opportunity
o down them to a certain extent. Be
hat as it may, the mule turned the
tuggy topside down and spilled the boys
n the road, and was even so unfeeling
s to proceed upon his travels and leave
hem where he had dumped them,
doral, be careful how you fool with a
nule.
A
Problem to Solve.
Mr. Editor:?As one who likes to read
Phe Times and get the news of
he county and the views of the farming
raternity, I wish to ask a few questions
vhich I would like for some one or moro
o answer so that I may know whether I
m right or not in my calculations. If
haul or hire hauled two loads of wood
o market with a two horse team live or
ix miles, and receive a dollar a load or
ittlf Pnrtl fnr if. lintu m 110)1 virnulH T horn
eft after paying the man who drives the
earn, and for the team and wagon, and
hirty-flva cents .to get the wood cut
nd corded ready for hauling to market?
would be glad for a good calculator
o figure it up and s-ee if it is any wonder
o few of our class of citizens are able to
?ay for a year's subscription to our
ounty paper. The selling of wood is
,bout the only w ay some have of getting
, little rpady money, and after expenses
,re paid how much do they have left?
Ve all know that it takes extra feeding
o keep a team in heavy work all the
ime, as well as repairs on the wagon
ind harness have to be kept up. What
wish to learn is, are we working in a
msiness-like manner? The way I look
it it we aie not, but if I am in error
lease correct me.
Another item which though it is geting
late would inteiest the inexpcriinced
grain grower, to learn the best
nanner of putting in a crop of grain,
wheat and oats both, whether to follow
sotton with grain, or to sow on the
itubble land of a previous crop. We
tave been thinking the commercial
ertilizers a paying investment, but
would like to learn the opinion of others.

Big Wedding fit Cedar Springs.
Tho marriage of Miss Virginia
Walker, daughter of Prof. N. P. Walker,
of Cedar Springe, to Hon. Robt.
M. Hitch, of Savannah, Ga., which
took place on Wednesday, Nov. 21st,
at the home of the bride, was a very
enjoyable occasion to all who attended.
There were quite a number of
friends and relatives from Spartanburg,
Union and Savannah present.
Tire bride was a perfect vision of lovliness,
when she appeared on the arm
of her father, who tenderly gave her
into the charge and keeping of the
distinguished statesman from Georgia.
The ceremony took plnco in the
parlor which was beautifully decorated
with evergreen and flowers, by
a florist from Columbia, as was also
the dining room, where tea was
served after the ceremony. The happy
couple were the recipients of many
warm congratulations and wishes of
success and hnnninncu Tim nMoonia
to the bride were costly and appropriate.
The party took the midnight
train for Atlanta wliero the
happy couple will remain until the
adjournment of the Legislature when
they will make their home in Savannah.
Mr. Hitch, of New York,
brother to the groom, acted as best
man. There were no bridesmaids.
The presents to tho bride consisted
principally of cut glass and silverware,
and were very beautiful.
The Union contingent at this happy
occasion, consisted of Col. and
Mrs. T. C. Duncnn and children, Gen.
Mgr. Geo. W. Wright, of U. G. S.
R. R., Mr. and Mrs. A. P. H. Walker,
and their charming daughters,
the Misses Ethel and Maggio, and
Mr. Lewis Jordan, book-keeper at tho
Department Store. They chartered
a speoial train which left Union at
0 :4f> and arrived at Glendale at 7 :30,
a very quick run. They were met
there with carriages which took them
to the Cedar Springs Institute where
the ceremony was performed. The
party returned to Union at 12 o'clock
p. m., all of whom report it a delightful
occasion.

More Pistol Casualties.
ANOTII FATAL SHOOTING.
At a very early hour yesterday morning,
just as the whistles were blowing for
the mills to start up, another tragedy was
enacted, this time at Clifton No. 1.
Ed Coleman, colored, became engaged
in an altercation with his wife at the
breakfast table and for some reason
seemed determind to kill her. His brother
Sam Copeland, who boarded with
them interfered, and Ed turned his gun
on his brother and fired. The shot entered
the stomach, lodging in the musle
of the back. Dr. W. W. Rigby performed
the operation of cutting the man open
and binding up the intestines. lie found
four punctures and owing to the long
delay in getting medical aid, the chances
are about ten to one against recovery.
