Jonesvii.lh, Feb. 29th.?Mr. Allen Vinson died at his home near Lockhart Junction last Tuesday after a long illness of dropsy. Mr. Vinson was 08 years cf age and had been rpiite a stout man. He served all through the Civil War in Company II. 5th S. C. V., This company was known as the Pea Ridge Company and it did much hard fighting in many hard battles of the war. Mr. Vinson was also a member of Camp Boyd No. 921 U. C. V. Ono by one the veterans are passing I away. Rev. E. It. Harden, a student of Wofford College, preached in tho j Methodist church here yesterday levtning. The sermon was tpiite a pleasing one, as Mr. Harden had the entire attention of the large congregation. John K. Rush, of Midway, Tennessee, has been in our town fur several days looking after some mules helms litre. A good mule brings from one and a half to two hundred dollars. * a Messrs. M. C. Iligh, W. E.

Lipscomb have returned from New York where thev bought spring goods fir the J. J. Littlejohn Go , Department Store. The traveling men commonly call- j ed drummers are here every day in great numbers and are selling our ? merchants plenty of goods on all lines. Goods are higher, but this is a natural consequence, as goods must keep apice with the price of cotton. A litt'e over a month henci and we will hold our annual municipal election. There is some little talk about a ticket and while there is no pay in any of these offices from outside talk it seems like there will be two tickets in the race. Saturday seemed to have been rather a field day for the blind tigers, dispensary patrons and cider tipplers for it is very evident drinks got too much mixed, which made somo [ people "big around and high up.

Last Thursday night quite a sensation was caused by little Gertrude Ilenry, an intelligent school girl, failing to put iu l.er appearance at her home on Church stied,. Foul play was feared as she did not oome home with the other school children. At night when Mr. and Mrs. Henry came home and not finding little Gertrude they began to enquire among their i neighbor?, and nothing could be earned J ae to her whereatjouts. f The neighbors became alarmed and a # search was made. Men and boys hunted I on every hill and in every hollow, but I all was in vain. Next morning a tele* * phone message brought the news that . the lost child Jliad gone home from . school, with one of Mr. John Craw fold's children. NOTICE!
