by reference to another column 1t will
be seen that the firm of Hill & Harrison

disposing Of his interest to Mr.. r. S. Hill.
The drug business will be continued at
the old stand under the firm name of

lady remarked to us the other day
that sho thought Anderson had several of
the most silly, gigglipg young men to be
found i'll any town Of the Same size In tho
State. She said she recently attended q
religious meeting, and was so unfortu nate
as to got ge.t IN front oi sumo of these
young mon. During tho aervico stcy
kept up continuous giggle and CONVEX
sation, and not only would not pay any
attention to the services themselves, but
prevented those around them who felt an
interest in the meeting from hearing o
word that was spoken. She thinks that
the mothers Of these young men should
take them back under their control and
teach them how to behave. We have no.
ticed the conduct of certain young men
on several occasions, and think this lady
is right. Thore Is some excuse for mis-.
chievous boy misbehsving at times, but
when it comes to grown young men con-
docting themselves in an unbecoming
manner, it is ridiculous. Doubtless they
think it is smart, but If there is any
smartness in such wo fail to see II. It
shows the lack of brains.
Old Sol made his appearance last Tues
day after an absence Of about nine days,
during whioh time the whole County was
visited by heavy rains. Much damage is
reported from all sections of the County
to the small grain crops, especially to
that which has been harvested. We
trust, however, that II is not as bad as is
supposed. On last Friday afternoon o
very heavy rain fell in the Corner town.
ship, damaging the growing crops and
washing the land terribly. One OF the
citizens Of that section says it was deci-
dedly the heaviest rain for the time being
that has fell there in twenty-five years.
About the same time portions Of Broada-
way township were also visited by
heavy rain. Citizens of that section de-
scribe it as being water-spout, as the
whole surface for several miles around
was deluged. The plantations and crops
of Messrs. A. e. Brown, Solomon Geer,
John Msttox and Pickens Young suffered
most. In places the crops and soil were
literally washed awsy. hardly yestlge
of vegetation being left. In the city we
had rain every day for eight days, bus
it fell steadily and did no damage except
to the wheat and oats, which Is not very
extensive.
