County, have been elected o1ncerS OF tn'
Philosophian Society of Furman univer-
sity, Greenville, s. c., for the ensuing
term. Anderson County boys always
stand we'll wherever they go.
We were pleased to nave'a call las
Monday from our old friend and forme
| I How. citizen, Mr.. W. NJ. Wilcox, of Ell
berton, Ca. He came over with his fami
| ly {, visit relatives in the city. Mr. Viii
cox has many friends in Anderson wht
are always glad to see him in our midst.
A young friend remarked IN our pres
encs the other day that he had been ab
s-it from his Sunday School only ont
time during the past ten years, and hi
would have been present that time had h'
been in. the city. We doubt il there il
another young man in Anderson wht
can say the same thing.
Mr.. Edward NJ. Anderson died at the
residence of his mother, in this city, las'
Monday morning, after an illness o
about FIVE weeks. aged IS years. His re.
mains were inferred in the Baptist Gene
try on Monday afternoon, Rev. 7. p
Bell conducting the funeral services. He
leaves wife and four children.
mo, ma am II exclaimed the provoked
young man the other evening to young
lady, who, on the refusal of her fayorite,
had asked him to accompany her to
party, IT don't play second fiddle to any
.one!' ssNo one asked you to play Sec
3ond fiddle" replied the young lady with
a smile; "I only asked you TO be my
beau"
Mr.. NJ. B. Arnstein left the city last
Monday morning for Charleston, where
he will attend the session of the Grand
Chapter. From Charleston he will go to
New York to purchase his Spring stock
Of goods. He says he will buy the largest
and handsomest stock Of goods ever
brought to Anderson. He will be absent
several weeks.
Seneca Free Press: 1.-THE Young ladies OF
che Anderson Female College are getting
up subscriptions, in the hopes that they
will soon be able to issue paper in the
interest of their school. Several of the
BOYS in Seneca have received postal,
written in dainty little hand, asking
aid. They have cheerfully responded
who wouldn't?"
An exchange says: ''Give young men
fortune without education. and at least
one half will go down to the tomb of OBJ
.livion, perhaps ruin. Give them an edu-
cation and they will be fortune to them
selves and their country. It is an inheri-
tance worth more than gold, for it buys
true honor; they can never spend or lose
it. Through life it ever proves friend
and in death consolation"
Rewards are now offered for the zap
prehension and delivery to the Sheriff of
q acriminal, and not for the apprehension
and conviction as formerly offered.
The necessity for conviction to have been
secured before the reward is paid no long
er exists, hence detectives, constables and
others will find the arrest of accused par
ties for whom rewards have been offered
not so troublesome ssheretofore.
The City Council have positively de.
termined to add the penalty to all taxes
no. paid within the time prescribed by
law, that is to say during the present
month. We mildly suggest to all parties
who have the money to pay up at once,
as at the present rate of collection there
will be grand rush about the closing
week Of the month, and it will probably
be greatly inconvenient, If not impos'i.
bic, for all to pay at that time.
The Elberton, Ga, Leader compliments
Hon. H. @. scudday's speech upon prohi-
bition, delivered in that town on Tuesday
of last week, very highly, and has this to
say about him: without possible politi-
cal motives Hon. II. G.. Scudday came
among us from another State in the in
terest of prohibition. The prohibitionists
of Elbert County return thanks to him
for his eminent services. South Carolina
ought to be proud Of her illustrious son."
We received call last Saturday from
Mr.. T. F. McCandless, the polite and gen
tlemanly Passenger Agent of the Atlanta
& New Orleans Short Line, who was in
the city in the interest of his route. Per-
sons going to the Exposition will find
this route most pleasant and quick one,
with very low rates. Mr.. L. P. Smith
has been appointed local agent for this
route in Anderson. Write to Mr.. Nc
Candless, at Atlanta, Ca, or call upon
Mr.. Smith and you can get any informa.
ton you may desire.
The large advertisement of Mr.. A. Less
er in this issue will attract the attention
of our readers. Everybody should read
it carefully, as he is offering bargains in
every class of goods He wants to make
room for his Spring goods. Mr.. Lesser is
an energetic, progressive merchant, and
is determined not to keep his slight hid
under a bushel." Encouraged by the
liberal patronage bestowed upon him in
the past, he has decided to carry much
larger stock in the future, and will make
it to the interest Of every person in the
County to buy goods of him. Be sure to
call at Mr.. Lesser's store when you need
in his line.
