The Christmas Cantata gwen by
members Of the Presbyterian Sabbath
School on the nights Of Christmas and
Friday was one Of tie brightest links
IN the chain of our holiday enjOYments,
and gave great satisfaction 10 all who
had the good luck to be present. The
younger children did remarkably well,
most of them being OF tender years,
and evidence Of thorough drill and
handling. Their bright, happy faces
aud fresh young voices made more than
one weary heart glow with a pleasant
warmth none too often felt. We have
not space to so into particulars and can
only mention a few Of the songs. solo
and duet-"Sounds that charmed the
Restless Deep" by Misses Maggie
Hughes and Lucy Marshall, was very
sweet and finely rendered. We noticed
many Of the men in the audience listen
ing very ntcntly with their eyes to
these sweet singers, and we don't
blame them. Solo and chorus, "InyO-
cation TO JOY" by Mr.. S. V. r.
Clover was sung as only Sam can sing
it. Duet peace and JOY" by Misses
Mary Hughes and Sallie Few was
sweetly rendered. The Evening Prayer
song, Now lay me down to Sleep"
sung by four little girls kneeling at the
bedside, was full OF chlldlke pathOs and
very toushlng. Mary Magruder, Georgia
Miley and Mary Allen played the par, of
FAIRIES, and very dear Fairies they
looked, and singing and acting their
parts well indeed. Charles FraYel as
Santa Claus was frstrate, making lots
fun, and Sam. Marshall as Frost
King was perfect in dress and acting,
taking the part as naturally as If he
had been at it. all lis life. The music,
Miss Sallie Bird at the organ, was Of a
high order and elected the most decided
approval of every one. Much praise is
due all concerned, and especially to
Mr.. w. I. Williams who labored so
faithfully and efficiently in getting it up
aad carryihglt through succ essfully.

The balloon ascon-

Early in the evening the managers

lance from all danger. The grand
stand erected for the benefit Of celebrat-
ed persons, consisted of an old Carpen-
ter's work bench which was soon crowd"
ed, Our old friend Jack had charge OF
this important part, and just before the
balloon went up the stand went down
with crash. On account Of wind
prevailing at the time, the balloon Was
taken behind a building for the purpose
of initiating it. After some delay the
management thoaght it time TO per-
form, and amidst loud cries oil let her

mouster air ship was loosed from her
moorings. It went up at once ito tie

persons thought would have been under
favorable weather, a splendid display CT

for som years, took quite an active

THE Boss Hoo.-The boss hog,
owned by Mr.. Charles Welsh, Of this
place, was killed last Friday. He was
weighed Immediately after he was kill
cd and lis gross weight, exclusive Of
his blood was found to be go pounds.
His net weight was 500 pounds. His
loss from gross weight, estimating his
blood at fifteen pounds, was only 1l6
pounds or about ~ pounds to the hun.
dred. The hog had been weighed about
four months before he was killed and
his gross weight, at that time, was $50
pounds. He had since been fed 26
bushels of corn. Many persons basing
their estimates upon these facts put his
net weight from 900 to 1000 pound,.
A number ofpersons had taken chances,
putting in tickets at Is cents each,
with the understanding that the party
that came nearest to the weight OF the
hog was TO have the box. The tickets
ran from $50 10 1915 pounds, Many
persons combined, taking number Of
chances with the understanding that
the proceeds were TO be divided. Mr.,
Peter Supinger put In single ticket at
500 pounds and won the box. A few
others wero very near it. Mr.. Jas. Nj
ley's estimate was S673 and DIR. Car
ter's $40. The hog was three years cid

As you sometimes make

a case which camo under my personal
observation. Uncle Reuben Brown
now in the employ of Mr.. Josiah Stick.
ley is certainly one Of the champion
drivers and horse managers of the
State. He moved the mammoth
Eclipse, 20 horse portable engine from
Strasburg depot to the cotton spring in
the little Fort. weighing about 50 tons,
with Mr.. Stickley's team of six horses,
by way ofStrasburg through the Fort
Valley to Y Roads and thence on tie
town road 10 Mr.. Jacob Funk's in the
little Fort, at which point two more
horses were added. In spite Of the fact
that the engine swamped three times in
marshy ground, the movement was
made with a skill that would have done
credit to Stonewall Jackson's engineers.
