We hear much complaint about
the wretchcd condition OF the road
at and beyond Bear creek bridge.
In the lane approaching the old
Briscoc place VIC arc told there arc
mud holes deep and wido enough
to swallow up Il wagon and team.
We know we have had much bad
weather lately, but certainly if the
road overseer had not postponed
too long repairs that were needed,
the road would not be in the terri
BILE condition. it now is. Let the
Grand Jury look sharp after delin-
Quents.

Mr.. Jno. r. Hargon was very se-

not dangerously, shot last Monday.
He had a lien on the crop of a man
named Mike Ryan, residing near
Camden, and feeling that the latter
party was slow or indisposed to
brig forward his crop in satisfac-
ton of the lien, went in person To
enforce the same. He was accom-
panied by an officer of the Magis

while engaged in conversation with
i;ian, the latter drew n pistol and
shot him, the ball takin. effect in

with arrested Ryan, but not until
he had found it necessary to also
shoot him. Mr.. Hargon was brought
heme and has ever since been Coz
fin..i 10 his room, but is in a fair
way to recover. We learn that Ry-
an aftcrward made his escape and is

Last Wednesday, Mr.. Dan Ham
blen of Camden sent two bales of
cotton to our town to be sold for his
account. Mr.. Stanford sold the cot
ton and after paying sundry small
bills and making some purchases
for Mr.. Ii. enclosed the balance of
the purchase money, $3.50, in AZ
envelope and gave it to the ne@'o
man, who brought the cotto, to
town, to carry it to Mr.. Ua'lblen.
The n' gro put the money in his
breast pocket and got irs"h wagon
and started home. When about
two hundred yar-s from the Court
house square, IN the road running
north, two negro men asked him
to let tl,.m ride, and got into his
wasor. They had not gone more
thmi a few yards when the negro
discovered that the bride on one
of his mules was out Of fix and got
out of the wagon to right 1t. He
then discovered that the envelope
with the money in it was missing
and accused the two strange negroes
with having stolen it. OF course
hey denied having done SO. Bob
Tyler with his street squad was
working close by and was called to

Irs. Llvermore recently gave a lecture
IN Lancaster, Pa, upon the subject Of train
ing women, and in the course of bor 80
marks told the following pathetic tale with.
IN her own experience, as reported bv the
! Express: '''-
Some time ago the lecturer was sent for
by lady whose husband had boan dood
three months. She had three cbiIdrpn~-a
boy and girl old enough to run about. and
an infant only two weeks old. She rn-
marked that she had sewing machine tho,
she could sew a little, and thought She
might be able to rear the two older child
rer If she was not encumbered with tho in.
lant With 1t she could do>notbino and
she desired that some Christian woman be
found who would adopt the infant as her
own Mrs. LlYermore found such 4 vo-
man, lady Of wealth, who had been rob-
bed by death of her first born. She wonId
accept the child upon one condition. and
only one; she would not know its mothers
name or residence, and the mother should
not know her name or residence. The
mother should only hear of her child in the
event OF its death, and then the tidinrs
were to be conveyed by Mrs. Livermore.
She did not want TO run the risk of havino
the child with her for few years. until
she had learned to love it with almost
motherly affection, and then have it ruth
IessIy torn from her by some GOOD turn in
the tide of her mothers fortunes. She
would run no such risks. The lecturer
told the mother the conditions. She ac-
copted, and when the day of parting came.
