A NEWSY LETTER from Our Santuc Scribe About People and Things in That Section. Saxtiv, March 13.?Forward, March! hut I believe March will l>o mostly in April this year. \\ e ire having some brushes of the cold wave that was Fnday and Saturday playing arouud in Michigan, principally around Marquette, where the temperature was 4 degrees lielow zero. That 4 'ground hog'' business must have been a ground hog scrape this season for he played us false. He is not up-to-date, for verily the seasons seemed to change, the same casted suffered, I am glad the farmers and business men are allied for the betterment of the cotton market, but while farmers arc encouraged to reduce acreage to lower production to raise prices, will the men who - CT'ivr rt'?tg rvfUifK bills to the numbers of those who must rent or get out, that the reduction of production be equalized, or will they still get their big full crop, say? Mr. P, E. Davis who occupied ' the Crocker House for two years,has moved his family back to his farm. A fine step 1 am of the opinion, considering the small business in from keeping Ixiarders here, and too, that the owner of the premises saw fit to sell it out to negroes, an erstwhile desirable property, in the heart of tdwn, joined in among the good white citizens, making a black spot as the care of the town, I try to lie lenient, for no white person here considered himself ghunip enough to give the price asked for it, and it had to go the other route. The coldest and worst of the winter is over I guess, yet people had better not be too premature about planting, for a cold, wet spring is detrimental to good gerrqination of seed. We had a seige of bitter cold and bad weather from Jan. 15th, to Feb. 15th. Many, I have heard say, "this is the toughest weather 1 ever saw." When the records show that in the paat eleven years we have had several much worse than that spell, if you con* sider the temperature, snow and, yes, rain. If I had space and time at present, I would givo- some comi parisons as they are available. If one does not keep a record, one scarcely can remember just how past years have been. According to my eye the power house over at Xeal Shoals is Hearing completion. I was over there a ; few hours last week and saw a great deal. A large force of hands were at work, and every department of the work going on except the actual laying of stone on the dam. Work had to ik; stopped on that account of the condition of the weather. The river has been on a sort of rampage, all of the coffer dams washed out and a hoisting engine was tumbled over. I witnessed the rcscueing of the l>oiler on my re' cent visit there. New cofferdams will have to l>c built and the excavation for the foundations for the last section%)f the dam will have to )mj cleaned out. The power house walls are about as high as they will be. A railroad is built there and lieyond, going towards Union. It seems quite strange to see a locomotive and cars standing over there on the hill by Broad river hut that is a fact sure enough. All of the Humes arc about riveted, and there is only a few more days of corking to l>e done W them boforc they are ready for tke water wheels. ilbv d&nvkk. B?'t ?a? as this is a "fast age" everything except the seasons and lie needs a new almanac, Little Johnnie Jeter, sop of Mr. and Mrs. J. 1\ Jeter, has been confined to the house and a considerable time to bed this winter from lining crippled, and he can't remember when or how he waus hurt, if at all. He is able now to go on crutches, and tfnay soon liavo full use of himself. There was an examination here Saturday last for Rural Free Delivery carriers for Fish-Dam, Union and Joncsvillc, Tlio applicants were from Carlisle, Messrs Thomas, Fincher and Page; Union, Messrs Harris and Parr; Joncsvillc, Wcbcr, Fowler and Hyatt. Contractor Capt. Sam Dunnovant loaded his camp equipment, grading tools and alxiut 50 head of mules and horses Saturday, all to go to Atlanta where they have a contract. Carpenter Bros, are the only ones of the contractors 011 the new road who are still here at this writing, hut cars have been ordered for them, With the good weather prevailing for several days the farmers were enthused, and pushed farm work right along, but the tide turned and our miniature blizzard Saturday night to Sunday gave progress a blockage. Oats were not all killed by the hard winter, but many made narrow escapes, Those sown in open furrows stood wcR but the hrcwnl Amended Summons fo Relief. (Complaint not serwd.)
