Saturday, March 1st.?We had the most rainfall in 24 hours since last September, 1.82 inches, and this fall n about eight hours. Thursday evening before we had a regular downpour for a short while, which would have been a bad "trashmover" if it had lasted longer. People speak on March "coming in like a lamb," but thsi one come in thundering. There are rumors thai some gardeners have tomato plants up, and have planted other things, but I wonder how they are faring this frosty morning, with ice, and a temperature at 28 degrees. The early bird out to catch the worm, but the worm may catch the early bird. I do not believe in running ahead of time, myself. There was a young negro man, Charlie Thompson, died the first of last week, down near where Mr. J. B. T. Vaughan lives, caused by a pistol shot in the arm and blood poison set* ting in. He shot himself. It was reported to me that he was trying to shoot his brother, and shooting across his left arm, sent the ball into that.. Another report was, that in trying to shoot his brother, because that brother would neither give him whiskey nor money to buy any, the brother caught his hand, turning it away to save himself, and changed the direction o fthe ball. If the reports about the affair are true, he did what he ought to have done, in trying to shoot someone else, shot himself. Instead of killing a brother, kill himself. I have just heard that the coroner went down, had the body dug up, and held an inquest. I think that was fixing needless expense on the county. So far as I know, the man never said but that he shot himself, none of his people never said anything else. He was the only one who did any shooting or attempted \o do any, or any fighting, just only shot himself, and there can be no further case against him in this world, nor anyone else, as to trials or the courts, and it seems that this exhuming and holding an inquest was needless. He was not found dead, but lived more than a week after the accident to him. The Secretary of the Union County Interdenominational Sunday School Convention has sent some blanks for reports from Sunday Schools, etc. llut listen, I do not believe there is n SnnHov Sphnnl in Sontnn fnnrn c V* i n " """""J unles it is at Beulah church. Around Santuc there is no great show of church-going people. As to Sunday School that is more lacking. At the church that I am best acquainted with there has been a Sunday School wihter and summer for a good many years, until this winter, when w*jk one man in the hospital, his vme overwhelmed with anxiety, the three leading young ladies of the school away, to wit: Miss Stella Hobson having taken a position at Halifax, S. C.; Miss Minnie Stokes gone to live at Burlington, N. C., and Miss Lizzie Jeter at G. F. C., Greenville? and only a handful, and very small at that, of single men, no teachers, the school atrophied for want of nourishment. No parents attended. I am WnnHhrinir wfon ic rncnnnciKIn If n?i. rents, members of the church, withchildren, are not enough interested in the training of their children at Sunday School, to interest themselves in the Sunday School, to go and take the children, or even encourage them, or help to surport the school, and single men and young ladies try to keep up a school for the good of the children, and fail for want of cooperation, will the Lord hold the latter responsible. With the young ladies I mentioned going away, it took about all of the young ladies of the place who seemed to care about Sunday School. You may accuse me of making a serious indictment, "but I think seeing is believing in many thincrs Strnntr nnri viti-AVAiio nnnnln may be ever so interested deep down j in their hearts, but if they do not speak out, or show out for a thin^, the world will never know it. And, as for the men folks and half tfrown boys, they are without a question nice, sociable, gentlemanly fellows, but they do not seem to be interested in church or Sunday School work,? but I guess none of this is my business, but it may be of business of the future of our place. I am sorry to have to say it, that if the Township Interdenominational Sunday School Convention in this, Santuc township, froze to death it did so at this place and at Salem church. A few, very few, tried to hold a convention more than a year ago?tried it twice?members of the Baptist and Methodist churches, but the place didn't help to entertain it, nor attend, and I felt hurt, because mostly, oi me visitors invited nere. The reviving of an interest in Sunday School may be brought about by the young children coming on now, just a few years from now. This is almost spring like weather, except for rains. A farmer, at least, feels a bouyancy, possessed of some vim and wants to be doing something out of doors getting ready to do more towards helping "to feed the world." We are want to be cutting back encroaching briars, knock ing sprouts, cleaning out ditches, making new ones, opening up fertile, but now idle spots of land, sowing spring oats, remodeling terraces, I stopping washes, etc, and improving 1 the whole face of the earth as it lies within our ability to do. Now, whil? we are on the terrace and gully stop* 1 ping subject, I woudl like to say that ' I have a new. plan of fixing terraces 1 and stopping washes or low places, ( raising them up?or at least if any one else is doing this it has not been 1 brought to my notice. In making ter- : races I lay them off with a home- ' niuue icvui, wnicn is as accurate as any I could Ret, and I do not make so many sharp curves around a ridge, nor sharp points up a little washedout gully-like places. I go over the ' ridge in a manner that I will not ; have to get too deep into the ground to get a level, then I bank up across the swags or dips, sufficient to hold the water level, and in plowing, go ' up and down over the ridge and out of the dip if not too out of level, and 1 if the terraces are attended to properly you can be lowering the ridgeand raising the dip, and leveling the 1 face of the field. Now understand me, if the field consists of wide, curving ridges, or valleys not sharp, I go on the level. Now as to those dips, if you cut long logs from eight inches, or even larger in size, and rather long and put them across the swags or dips put small brush under them and they to be from ten to fifteen feet apart, all of the washings fro mthe field coming down will catcb at these, and when it is filled up to the top of the log, or the log rots, put another midway between these; take out the pieces of logs of the old ones and plow over them, an dso on. lis pole plan is the best ever for those broad washed places where it ' it hard to stop by putting in brush alone every year. Now in the not too big swags, with the log and brush plan you can let the water flow right on. The lops and few small brush under them prevents a gully from washing; the logs should reach far enough out for water to run around the ends, and they take up too narrow a strip not to plow there, and the swag keeps on being raised, and after awhile you can have it so raised that it is easy to terrace across this swag on a straight line. On this plan, if you put the poles between the terrace lines, if a row of any truck strikes about the end of them, it is easy to pick up the plow and carry it across to the other end. Between the poles which are to be only three or five rows apart, plant right on. Every broad, shallow wash or sink should have small poles placed on this style, and they will sure work well. I am in love with my plan because it is my ideal, to date, on a cheap order, but some one may come along and show me a bet ter one, or 1 may find a better one myself. I like to work at building up land. There is nothing that is much more fascinating to me, and, making foot-prints in the sand. , Hey Denver. GEORGE WASHINGTON. (Written by Boyce White, a pupil in the Gault School.) George Washington was born in ; Virginia on Feb. 22nd, 1732. His \ father died when he was quite young ] and he was left in the care of his 1 mother. His educational advantages were , poor, however, he learned what he could at home and at a neighborhood school. From one of his old copy books the following rules of learning were copied: "Undertake not what you cannot perform, but be careful to keep your promise." "Labor to keep alive in 1 your breast that little spark of celestial fire called conscience." George was fond of all kinds of athletic sports, and was what we term i* "ring leader. ' On account of his truthfulness he won the confidence of all of his classmates and was often called upon to settle their little disputes, and as we all know, it has often been said that "Washington could never tell a lie." At the age of fourteen he grew tired of (juiet school life and would have become a soldier had his mother not persuaded him to remain at home. When the French and Indian war broke out he, though only twenty-one, ~ 1 - * tfi J- ' <T?3 mauc Kuneiui ui i/iiu Virginia militia. His military skill having been proved in this war he was chosen commander-in-chief of the American army in the Revolutionary war. Showers of honors had been heaped upon the great commander up to this time, but his greatest honor was proclaimed when in 1789 he was made first president of the United States. He served two terms after which he retired to private life at Mount Vernon. The great Virginian, said by Henry Lee to be "First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen," passed away on December 14th, 1799. Kentucky and Pennsylvania produce nearly all the canned coal mined in the United States. Blease Ousts Bamberg Master Bamberg, March 3.?It became generally known here this morning that Governor Blease had ignored the recommendation of the primary eMaster in Equity for this county to succeed H. C. Folk, who has held that office for eleven years, and was nominated in the last primary, without opposition for another term. Many were the comments heard on the action of the Governor and his ignoring of the will of the people as expressed at the ballot box is very generally condemned even by his political friends. ? No other recommendation of the primary election in this county has been ignored by the Governor. When apprised of the Governor's action Mr. Folk sent him a telegram reading as follows: Governor Cole L. Blease, Columbia, S. C.,: In the primary you and I swore to support the nominees of the party. I supported you as nominee for Governor. Are you supporting me as nominee for aster If not, why not? Please answer."
