They were by no means with malicious intent, and he feels sure that the parties concerned will excuse the errors. Indeed, lie thanks them for the kind way in which they informed him of the blunders, and asked corrections. In the report of the Oetzel Hardware sale, it was stated that the concern was nauKrupi. I HIS IS wrong. The stock was sold by due process of law required in all cases where dissolution of partnership is desired. Mr. M. \V. Holm was reported as bankrupt in a previous issue.

J. D. Mahon, Gilliam Gregory. Program Committee. . Lincoln's Only Poem. It may be new to sonic to learn that to Lincoln's many well known accomplishments must Ik- added that of a poet. The following was written by him and read at his sis-1 tcr's wedding: When Adam was created, IJ He dwelt in Eden's shade, ;i\s Moses has recorded, And S(K)n a bride was made. Ten thousand times ten thousand i Of centuries swarmed around Before a bride was formed. And yet no mate was found. The Ixml then was not willing That man should he alone, /vn? causea a sleep upon lum, And took from him a Ixme. And closed the tlesh instead thereof I And then lie took the same And of it made a woman, And brought her to the man. Then Adam he rejoiced ' To see his loving bride, A part of his own body, The product of his side. [The woman was not taken 1 From Adam's feet, we see. So we must not abuse her, The meaning seems to he. 'The woman was not taken From Adam's head, we know, j To sl.iow she must not rule him ? Tis evidently so. The woman, she was taken From under Adam's arm, | So she must In- prot< eted From injuries and harm. ?Atlanta (leorgian. Letter from Jo-JO.

I want to say here 1 am well! pleased with this city and its sur-j rounding*. I knew this city when' they had the open bar-rooms, I also kneWvit when the disp? nsary took the p|ace of tin? har-room, and today I i>ee it free from the rur<e of either fear-room or dispensary. It W'swddrrequire nu>re time and espee-, f.?TXy Mr. -Editor than* you 1 allow-Whe to describe the dilTerenee.1 Whiles the har-room and dispensary were Here, it was not uncommon to see men drunk on the public square, on the streets, at the depot Are.; hut now after having been here just , one week I have not seen a man | who seemed to be even under the influence of strong drink. To say 1 that Prohibition does not prohibit,' ' is certainly a mistake. Even if we j do not have prohibition in its fullest I sense, does it not curtail the evil? Removing the har-rooms and dispell-1 sary, removes the temptation to j drin'f, ajjnd not living able to get the i drink-^whatever it may be, rum,! gin, brandy, whiskey, wine or l>eer, the average man who would buy the stuff jf it were easy to get, will spend his money for something needful. Now in conclusion I will say j I long to see the day when we will ' lie able to drive it from the nation. ; Rest wishes for Tin; Ti.mks, Jo-Jo. A Tomahawk. . Mr. M. B. Lee, of the West Springs neighborhood, brought to this otlico this week a very interesting relic. It is a large rock tomai_.i. i ; i i ? i ii:i\vk, which lie ploughed up in a field near liis house. Much interest is attached to relies of this kind, since they are of an age earlier than tin- memory of tin- present generations. T*rt> Indians were the only users of tjhose rock axes, and it lias j 'k-H-n a lung period since tlie race j Hyw Income extinct in this part of SoVv h Carolina. These were haunts for \ v Cherokees and Catawhns, liesidta many roving tribes that tarried a little while in (passing. Only a few Catawbas yet remain, I and these have a small settlement j near Rock Hill. Dedication and Centennial Celebration at Hebron.
