which he didn't want; in the cellar he
found some onions, which he carried
away; after breaking the pad lock of

lage. The News and Courier did not
report us improperly. It was certainly
far from the-wishes of every member
of our team, as was expressed before
the match, to be considered a team
from any Club Of Newberry Village.
We did not know Club was there 1T
the time Of the match, and are still ie-
norant of the fact that any such exists.
We have been informed that there is
none. 1t may be the relics of last
years club who extend to the public
their opionion that they could have
done better in the match than we did.
If SO it appears to Us that ignorance and
fogetfnlness are the only premises from
which they can draw such conclusion.
We saw none Of them on the field, and
are sure their opinion could not have
been based npon their shooting last
year. We do not desire to appear pre-
sumptious, but wish to remind them of
the fact that it is impossible for US to
challenge them to a contest as NE hold
the championship Of the County. The
Enoree does not doubt its ability to beat
the Newberry Clnb if any eveE makes
its appearance again.

MIR. IN. Christian
Returned from Baltimore Thursday
He went there to see DR.: Chisolm, the
eminent occulist, and have cataract
removed from one of his eyes. The
operation -1as performed the 18th. Mr..
c. describes it as skinning the eyeball.
The operation occupied less than half
minute. He was then kept in dark
room ten days. His eyesight is greatly
improved.
Mr.. Christian speaks in the highest
terms of DR.. Chisolm's skill and Of the
kindness with he was treated. He says
the doctor has patients from all parts
of the country. A day or two before
he left be saw the doctor perform a
very critical operation. A man in
splitting wood had one: of his eyes
knocked out. The other eye became
affected through sympathy and gave
him excruciating pain. In short
time that eye. would have been gone
too. He hadn't slept for three weeks
when he went to the DOCTOR: The doc
tor took the good eye out of the socket,
and let it hang down on the patients
check while he clipped around in the
socket a few seconds with pair of scis-
sors, and then put the eye back in posi-
ton, all in less than minute-and the
man was all right. All pain was gone
and. the eye was saved. Mr.. G. says
that in short time the poor fellow was
sleeping as sweetly as an infant if its
mothers arms.
Dr.. Chisolm is a native of Charleston
where he lived till the close of the war,
when he went 10 Baltimore. He has
made the eye a specially for many
years, and is the most distinguished and
successful occulist in the country. His
age is about fortY-fve.

The ssEnoree Team

MEssRs. EDITORS: Mentioning in
your issue oflast week the shooting con-
test which took place at Henderson
vile, July %, you say that the Nea0s
and Courier improperly reported us as
the "Newberry Club" This appearing
in your columns in addition to report
which has been circulated to the effect
that we wished to be known as team
from Newberry village, is calculated to
leave an erroneous and unjust impress
sion concerning US on the minds OF
many, If left uncorrected. Why we
were reported as the "NeWberry Team"
we will give the facts: In less than
two hours after CUR arrival at Hender-
sonville, pools were sold on US as New
berry Team. Only one Of our mem
bers was present at the time, and ne
asked that the name be changed to
Enoree; but some Of the pools having
already been sold, and there being no
other team from the county, it was re-
fused. The next morning when enter
ing the team on the field our Captain
again asked that the correction be
made. The Secretary desired to know
eff we were the only team from New
berry County" and upon an affirmative
reply, said that pools had been sold on
US as the Newberry Team, and as we
were the only team from Newberry' it
would have to remain so. We were
then entered as representative team Of
Newberry, and not Of Newberry Viii

Store Burned.

Store Burned.
The store Of Mr.. Luther P. w. Riser,
at Liberty Hall, was burned down Sat
urday night, 7th inst, with its entire
contents. The fire occurred at o'clock,
and when discovered was so far ad-
vanced as. 70 render the saving of any
of the stock impossible. Mr.. Riser is
not able to say whether the fire was ac-
cident.l or ineendiary. There was a
little fire IN the stove in the store Satur-
day evening; but the sto7e and piping
were in good order, and this c'rcum-
stance, in connection with the fact that
the fire occurred so late in the night,
gives strong probability to the theory
Of incendiary.
Mr.. Riser estimates his loss, in house
and stock, at S2,7O0-insured forS 500.
