By reference to notice in another col
umn, it will be seen that Mr.. B. F. Gem
try is the lucky winner of the gold watch
offered by Mr.. J. A. Daniels as Christ
mas present. The number of the watch
is 32,s35, and Mr.. Gentry guessed 3S,o7S,
which was the closest guess made. The
watch is beautiful one, and is valua-
BILE gift.
The City Council at meeting on
Wednesday, the 31st of December, elected
Mr.. F. A. Spellman member of the City
police, in the place of Mr.. R. F. Mckinney,
resigned, and also elected Mr.. j. L. Ar
mold, Jr., as an additional member of the
force. Mr.. w. n. Blackman was elected
as member of the force in the event Mr..
Spellman does not accept.
AS was noticed in the list of appoint
ments published last week, Rev. j. w.
Wolling has been assigned by his Confer
ence to the pastorate of the Anderson
Methodist Church for another year. This
is very gratifying, not only to Mr.. Woll-
ings own congregation, but to his many
friends throughout the city. de will
occupy his pulpit next Sunday morning
at the usual hour.
Next Monday is Salesday, and there
will no doubt be large crowd of people
in the city. We have printed an extra
supply of receipts especially for that day,
and wa hope those of our friends who
have not yet secured one will call and get
one. We don't want to strike off any
PERSONS name, but we will be compelled
to do so.if their subscription account is not
settled in few days.
Mr.. Joel Cox's store, in Honsa Path
township, was burglarized on Tuesday
night Of last week, and considerable
amount of groceries stolen. On the same
night Messrs. Cox q Poore's store, at To-
ney Creek, in Bolton township, was
broken into. There was only thirty-five
cents in the money drawer, and the bur-
glar took it. No goods were taken. or at
least none have been missed.
Prof. Pharazyn began series ofsleight-
of:hand and gift entertainments in the
Masonic Hall last Tuesday evening. De-
spite the incement weather he was greet
ed by fair audience, and all seemed de-
lighted with the entertainment. The
Professor does some very clever tricks,
and aside from his gifts his show is worth
the admission price. His leading gift on
Tuesday night was lady's gold watch,
which was drawn by our "Devil," Master
Charles Abel. A gold watch is given
away at every performance. All of his
presents are useful, and are not of cheap
jewelry. He will remain in the city sew
eral nights.
We heard farmer say the other day
that he had made more money out of his
rice crop the past season than he had out
of his cotton crop, and he plants consid.
cradle cotton, too. There are several far
mers in our County who have been try
ing rice growing on small scale during
the past three or four years, and they
have made success of it. We are glad
to see this, and we hope others will try
the experiment. Some Of these gentle
men are increasing their area every year,
and they say it is no longer an expert
ment, but an established fact that very
superior rice can be grown in Anderson
County. We would like for some of these
gentlemen to give our readers informa-
ton about rice culture, its cost. the prob
able yields and the profits from the crop.
