Major A. S. Todd Of the Ander-

ward for the Legislature in his
county, and Mr.. D. J. Carter of
the Lancaster Ledger has been
recommended by the Executive
Com mittee Of his county as a
suitable person to fill the unex-
pired term in Lancaster county.
Nobody has done more to advance
the best interests of the county
and promote it's welfare than has
the knights of the fifth estate, and
we are delighted to see their
efforts appreciated, and their
ability recognized. Where they
have contributed so materially in
bringing about good government,
it is but a just return that they
should enjoy some of the honors,
and Anderson and Lancaster coGn-
ties show that they appreciate the
labors of their journalists and pay
a very nice compliment to these
gentlemen. Success to both of

a cool spot to spend an hour or two.
The clerk advised ride on the street
cars to Abba and back. The gentle
man boarded car. Next to him sat
a young LADY, the daughter of a poor,
but respected Euglishman, then a
reaident of Abba. The young lady
was not very young, neither very
handsome, but was attractive and
bright. Her occupation was school
teaching. A remark by the gentle.
man led to an informal conversation,
which became so interesting that
when the young lady's residence at
Abba was reached she was not aware
Of it until the conductor. called her
attention to the fact. After she had
gone the gentleman asked the con-
ductor who the lady was. The con-
