Tim entire evening was most
charmingly spent. The net receipts
amounted to $26.50. It was
all net since there were no expenses
attached. This is quite a handsome
sum to realize, considering
the small admission fee of 5, 1C

Dear Editor: Having let quite a
sjh'H of time elapse since visitiiq
you last with pen and paper, 1
will ask you to pardon my seeming
negligence, and then attempt to sent
you a few dots for the next issue o
your interesting weekly.
March has furnished ideal weather
for plowing, and the various other
works preparatory to farming.
There is a great deal of fertilizer
Ircing brought out to the farm, hut
I think, as a general thidg, guane
will he less used hen*, than formerly,
as almost all our farmers have
pledged themselves to reduce their
cotton acreage.
It seems Spring is not to l?o dethroned
by the second appearance
of winter. The peach and plum
trees have adorned their silk-like
apparel to do homage to Spring.

The Anti-Dispensary Petitions

Jones ville, March 27 th.?Moat
everyone has a good word to say
for the "good March weather, but
April may change that sentiment.
Spring always brings hard times in
the way of something to cat and j
this spring is no exception to the
rule: The hard winter killed most j
of the turnips and other garden
truck and as for sweet potatoes |
they are not to be found in the
country. The merchants are ship- <
ping in some potatoes and they are i
selling at $1.50 the bushel. '
Fig trees were killed by the hard
winter where they were not well
protected. j
Haskell Holder died in the mill
town last week with that dreadful j
disease consumption. Mr. Holder
was a young nun/ of good moral ]
character and haa many friends.
At thejpadTnl school house last
Friday'ivrening friends and patrons ,
of the school were well entertained
fofr about two hours by the school j
with a program of local production
Rev. H. K. Ezell, of Kelton, Miss
Maggie Walker and Mr. Jim Powell
of Union attended the school exer
cises.
The farmers association met again
last Saturday evening in Adams
hall and discussed the cotton situation
which is agitating the whole
south at this time.
Mr. James G. Long, Jr., of ]
Union was in Joncsville this morning \
leaving some petitions to be circ.u- \
lated for signatures requesting the ,
county commissioners to order an i
election for the removal of the dis- <
pensary from the county. I am
quiie sure there will be but few who ;
will refuse to sign said petition.
D. B. Fant, superintendent of !
education, was in Joncsville a few 1
days since visiting the schools. He j
called at my office and we had a i
pleasant talk of a few moments.
Miss Eliza A. Garner visited some
friends in our town last week. ,
Work on the drug store has com- <
lnenced and we expect soon to see
a handsome brick building and a
fine and costly furnished modern
drug store in our town, something
we need and a thing that will no
doubt pay a good dividend. A
building lx>om has been revived in
Joncsville and quite a number of
residences will be built in the near
future. Mr. J. J. Littlcjolm, Mr.
J. D. Jeffcries, Jr., and Mrs. J. S.
Crawford will all build residences
. soon.
Since the death of Mr. J. S.
r Crawford in Texas his wife has dc
cided to move back to her native
town where she expects to spend
1 the remainder of her life,
i A two-mule team came running
into town this morning along

i reached the oil mill and they ran
