have something to do with a certain
new mill which is soon to be built.
The Charleston News and Courier
now reaches Union on the early morning
train. This arrangement was welcome
news to our citizens, and we have
no doubt it will be the means of building
up a good list of subscribers for that
excellent paper. It had been under a
disadvantage heretofore ou account of
uiucr luurum^ i>n;><jgggj^icning toe upcountry

could.
m) Machinery Started Up.
On Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock the
first fire was put in the traction engine,
end as the smoke began to curl from its
stack the crowd began to - gather, and
hy the timo steam was up a Big crowd
began to gather, and by the time steam
wvs up a Dig crowd was watching to see
it make its first start. When 75 lbs of
steam was shown the engineer manipulated
his levers and the engine slowly
backecmn of the rut at 11 o'clock and
turning^p the left it started down
Judgment street with Mr. W. A. Neal,
the agent of the company, engineer J.
O. Sanders, of Oconee, fireman A, M.
Halt, of Spartanburg, Mayor Macbeth
Young and the Editor of The Times on
board; reaching South street we turued
to the left and traveled to the Methodist
church, where we entered Church
street and went down near the knitting
mill where the scraper was picked up
and taken back to Main and down to
Wallace street, where the scraper
was put to work ou the new
street. The work with the scraper was
a little disappointing as it seemed to
consume too much time making a turn
at each end, . and two trips for
water had dtt be made. We should

Jonesvillk, Nov. 3.?The weather
is all that could be desired and the
favorable fall has brought up the cot
ton to a mucn oetter crop tnau wan j
expected two months ago, most of j
the cotton in this country is still r
growing and the late bolls are matur* j
ing and will make white cotton.
The news of the death of Capt.
John H. Montgomery, of Spartanburg,
was quite a shock to our people.
Capt. Montgomery was commissary
of the 18bh S. C. Regt. for three |
years during the late war, and I was t
company commissary for most of the
same time and it was there that I
first knew him and I learned there to 1
admire him, and I knew him on to 1
his.death, and I only knew him to j
admire him more and more as our acquaintance
ripened and matured.
The death Of Col. David Johnson, ^
of Union, was also sad, although he t
had lived to be nearly four score
and ten. The old land marks are
rapidly passing away. ,
Mr. James Harmon and Miss Mary
Coleman were married last night,
Rev. David Hucks performing the
ceremony.
Rev. Mr. Felmet, pastor of Qilead
church, filled his pulpit there yesterday.
He had a large congregation.
The c'olored people at their first
Baptist church here had quite a big
day yesterday, they raised about one
hundred dollars towards building a
now church.

Mr. Boyd L. Hames, of Gaffney,
and L. J. Hames, of Union, spent

Mr. J. E. Lindsay attended the

Indications just on the eve of election

one scarcely ever hears the election
mentioned. Some of us remember
when it was quite difforent.

tot going to be always about it. We

The Best Remedy for Group, i
From the Atchison, Kan., Daily Globe)
This is the season when the woman
*ho knows the best remedies for croup
s in demand in every neighborhood. One '
if the most troublesome things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle of
lie night bv a whoop from one of the
ihildren. The croup remedies are almost
is sure to be lost, in case of croup, as a
evolver is sure to be lost in case of burglar*.
There used to be an old-fashiontd
emedy for croip, known as hive syi up
?nd tola, bat some modern mothers say
liat Chamberlain's Cough remedy is
jetter, and does not cost as much. It ;
causes the patient to "throw up the j
phlegm" quicker, and give relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears aud it will
prevent the attack. It never fails and
is pleasant and safe to take. For sale

Stepped Against a not Stove.
A child of Mrs. Geo. T. Benson, when
getting his usual Saturday night bath,
stepped back against a hot stove which
burned him severely. The child was in
great agany and his mother could do
nothing to pacify him. Remembering
that she had a bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm iu the house, she thought she
would try it, In less than half au hour
after applying it the child was quiet and
asleep, and in less than two weeks was
well. Mrs. Benson is a well known
resident of Kellar, Va. Pain Balm is |
an antiseotic liniment and especially val-1
liable for burns, cuts, bruises and sprains.
