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.

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
