TIE New Schedule.

The first regular passenger train on the
Blue Ridge Division under the new fast
schedule was run on Monday. By this
schedule the passenger train reaches this
place in the morning ut 1l.33 and leaves at
l1.35, stopping only two minutes, and in
the evening it arrives at 5.55 and departs at
5.56, remaining only one minute. Close
connection is made with the Air Line trains
at Seneca City both in the morning and
evening, and also with the passenger trains
on the main line of the G. s. c. R. R. at
Bolton. Owing to the very short stoppage
here persons intending to take the train
at any time must get to the depot in time
to obtain their tickets and checks for bag
gage before the train arrives, as they will
not have opportunity to attend to this af-
forwards, as the officers Of the depot will be
busy delivering and receiving express and
baggage By reference 10 the corrected
schedules in this issue full particulars as to
the arrival and departure of the train at oil
points on the Road can be seen, by which
it will also be noticed that we are highly
favored with an extra train from Bolton to
this place every day, which is one of the
best features of the whole change. Hereto
fore the extra train was only run every
other day, which often made it necessary
for persons to 60 from Anderson to Bolton
by private conveyance in order to reach
Greenville without great loss of time.
The authorities of the Road certainly de-
serve great credit for this display Of enter
prise, and we sincerely hope it may prove
very advantageous to the business of the
company. Through night freight trains,
with passenger coaches attached, will be
put on the main line about the 18th inst.
The freight train on this division makes
close connection at Belton with the through
freight on the main line. 1t passes this
place in the morning at 5.14 and in the
evening at 7.15,

County Executive Committee.

The Executive Committee of the Demo,
cratic party of Anderson County met at
the ISTELLlGENcER Office, pursuant to call
of the Chairman, on last Tuesday Mt II
o'clock q. III. Senators Bayard, of Della
ware, Vance, Of North Carolina, and Cor

meeting in Anderson on the 9th inst, and
the following Marshals were appointed to
command the procession Gen. W. w.

shals. The Chief Marshal was authorized
to appoint as many aides as he deemed
necessary The mounted clubs were re-
qucstcd to meet at the Fair Grounds at half
past nine o'clock OH Thursday morning,
and the speaking is to begin at half.past
ten. The MCGOWAN Artillery and the Pen
dleton Red Shirts were invited to take part
in tho demonstration and fire the saIutes
for the day. The Anderson Palmetto Band
was invited to furnish music for the day.
The colored band was also invited to attend
the procession and play at the meeting,
The ladies are especially invited and urged
to attend this meeting. The business
houses of Anderson are requested to close
from ten o'clock until half.past three on the
9th, and it is requested that the bar.rooms
be closed during the day.
The Executive Committee then consid-
cred the request from West Savannah Club
to postpone the Primary Election, and de-
cided, after some discussion, that it would
be unwise to postpone the election. After
transacting other business connected with
the campaign, the Committee adjourned
subject to the call of the Chairman.

Col. james L. Orr.

The determination of this gentleman to
remove from this place to Greenville at an
early day with the intention Of permanent
ly locating in that thriving and growing
city, which determination was first publicly
made known in his card published in the
INTELL1GEHcER two weeks ago declining to
be candidate for Congress, is universally
regretted by the citizens of our town and
County. Having been born and reared in
our midst, and having represented our
County with ability in the State Legisla-
ture during four years of the most trying
and perilous period of our States history,
and being also lawyer of fine abilities and
lucrative practice, Col. Orr naturally has
many warm friends and ardent admirers in
this County, who regret exceedingly to see
him leave us. His uniformly courteous
and manly bearing, his zeal for and devo-
ton to the interests of the town and County,
his public spiritedness, together with his
high toned character, has won for himself
place in the affections OF our people of
which man of three score years might
we'll be proud. AS On evidence of his great
popularity and of the high regard in which
he is held by our people generally, we need
only refer to the unanimity with which he
was nominated by the Democratic Conven-
tlou ol tniS CouuGy ~ ltS iate IuectlnS lor
Congress from this District. It is matter
for congratulation, however, that in his re-
moval from Anderson the State will not
lose his talent, but that it will simply be
transferred from one County to another.
Col. Orr will carry with him to his new
home the good wishes of all his acquain-
tances. in common with whom we sincerely
trust the people of Greenvillc will place as
high an estimate on his many noble quail.
ties of head and heart as do the people Of
Anderson. He is in all respects worthy of
the fullest confidence of any people.

Death of Cant. Josop,. Y. rreswel,.

The many friends of this most cstimabe
gentleman will regret to learn of his death,
which occurred in the seycnty-ninth year
Of his aye at his residence three miles west
of Anderson OH last Saturday morning at
10 o'clock, from an attack resembling paral.
ysis.
Cap Fretwcll was born or the Yadkin
River in North Carolina OH the 10th day OF
January, A. ID. 1902. When small boy he
removed with his parents to what was then
Pendleton District, in South Carolina, and
settled three miles west of where the town
of Anderson now stands. The country at
that time was almost wilderness, hum
dred acres of land selling for saddle horse,
and in many instances for much less. Capt.
Frctwel was, therefore, citizen thorough
ly identified with the growth and prosperity
Of this section of country. He possessed
limited education, but had q remarkable
memory and strong mind, which made him
very pleasant companion and good bus
incss man. HedeYoted his life to agriculture,
and was successful farmer. Although he
took deep interest in the welfare of his
country, and always used his strong inf1u--
ence for the success of the cause of good
government, he never would consent to be-
come candidate for any office except in
the militia, where he was Captain for
many years of q fine Company, and made
most excellent officer. He was q strong
character in every way. No man was ever
esteemed higher for honor and unquestioned
integrity in all of his acts. There was no
better neighbor or more benevolent citizen.
He was most tender and affectionate in his
domestic relations, and thoroughly true
and faithful as friend. In his death our
community has lost good man, and his
memory will ever be respected by those
who knew him.
His remains were placed to rest on Sun
day afternoon in the Baptist Church Gene
terry, after appropriate funeral services con-
ductcd by Rev. T. P. Bell.

Willianlston.

At the last meeting of the Williamson
Democratic Club it was decided not to make
any nominations. The meeting was largely
attended and very great interest manifested,
A resolution was adopted requesting the
merchants of this place to close their doors
on the 9th of September and turn out in
mass to the meeting in Anderson. OF
course not one of our merchants could be
so wrapped up in self or blind to the inter-
ests of the Democracy as not to comply
with that request. If there is one, let him
be forever enrolled among the things that
have proved q failure and be remembered
only to be watched. Now is not the time
for Indifference on this subject. Every true
Democrat ought to feel that there is work
for him to do. When that is the case
then may we expect better timcs..... Our
Baptist brethren have closed very inter-
esting and profitable Union Meeting, which
commenced on last Friday. The Sunday
School meeting on Sunday morning was
especially interesting. After reports from
the various churches, addresses were deliv-
cred by J. w. Poorc, of Bolton, and j. NJ.
Pickle, Principal of the Williamson Male
Academy. Though the house was crowded,
the attention was unexceptionable,. and l
am satisfied that more pleasant and prof
liable meeting has not been held in this
place in many days. With the swell
done, good and faithful servant" spoken in
the heart of every gool -.tizen Of William
ston, Mr.. Pickle bids adieu to his school to
enlist himself as pupil in the Johns Hop
kins University, Baltimore. Young. ambi-
tious, talented, we bespeak for our high
toned, gentlemanly class-mate q brilliant
career and abundant success. Known to be
q teacher of untiring energy and an enemy
to superficial teaching, his attack upon such
teaching was most appropriate, and will
long be remembered by all who heard it:
You may expect full turn out Of "red
shirts" on the 0th. The merchants are sell
ing out their stock of red flannel, and the
old ladies in the surrounding country are
wit welding the needle with as much patriot;
ism as they did in '76. Many Of the red
shirts that were worn in '7G are tattered and
torn, but the hearts that throbbed beneath
them then still pulsate with quickened
emotion Mt the mention of Hampton's
name. hNll@'

The Grange Meeting at Tow.villo.

According to the previously published
programme, the Pomona Grange met at
Townville on last Saturday morning, Col.
J. w Norris presiding. The subjects of
fertilizers and rust in cotton were called up
and referred to the committee on fertilizers
with instructions to report at the regular
meeting in October.
Hon. B. F. Crayton was invited to give
an account of his visit. to the Georgia Agri-
cultural Society, W. ch he did in an inter.
esting manner. He said that one of the
principal reasons which induced him to
make the visit was to endeavor to awaken
an interest in the propagation Of fish in
Savannah River and secure the CO. operation
of Georgia in such measures as may be nee
essary to secure the free passage of fish up
the river. He had succeeded in procuring
memorial to the Legislature of that State
asking that the matter be looked into and
the distractions complained Of arranged so
as not to interfere with their free passage.
He said there was some difference Of opin
ion as to the cause of scarcity, which is at
tributed to the dam across the river at Au-
gusta, and also to the fact that the gas
works there empty their refuse material in
the river, which poisons or drives off the
fish. Whatever may be the cause he hopes
to have it removed.
COL Norris then introduced us the first
speaker for the OCCASION John Z. Breazeale,
Esq, who delivered q polished and eloquent
address upon the subject of woman and her
education, after which Hon. D. Wyatt
Aiken was introduced and made most ex-
cellcnt and practical address upon the sub.
ject of agriculture, advocating the system
of rotation in crops, and combating the
practice of extensive cotton culture. He
expressed the opinion there was more profit
in the production of red oats than in cotton,
and advocated making the necessarcs OF
life, including meat, at home. lie urged
the importance Of establishing manufactur-
ing enterprises in our midst as a means of
enhancing the value of the cotton crop and
diversifying labor. He gave interesting ac-
counts of the successful manufacture Of
sugar from sorghum cane and from corn
stalks, and predicted that it would become
| prominent industry. He also gave all
account of the new method of curing food
for stock by cutting up the corn and stalk
when it is in the silk and keeping it under
| heavy pressure. This experiment has prov
en- very valuable and satisfactory where
tried. He next gave US brief account OF
| the composition of oleomargarine and re-
peats the opinion that it is delicious and as
palatable Us good butter. The speech was
we'll received and at its conclusion a recess
was taken during which an excellent basket
dinner was enjoyed by those present.

Saturday, August DIST, was u pleasant
day at Towns Chapel. About three hun
dred persons assembled to enjoy Sunday
School pic mic and to hear some Sunday
School addresses. The singing attracted
everybody to the stand, and the exercises
were then opened with reading and prayer
by the Rev. ]. Finger. Messrs. ]. NJ. Stepp
and J. M. Lander addressed the audience
in the forenoon. After basket dinner DR..
w. C. Brown and Mr.. VIM. Robinson en-
tertained the assembly with some interest.
ing remarks relative TO the great work OF
the Sunday School. The speeches seemed
to be very much enjoyed; the audience was
composed of intelligent men, beautiful wo
men and merry children; the nice contents
of the baskets lent their charm 10 the occa-
sion and the day closed quietly, pleasant
ly and proftably to all who were present.
