Hon. Charles h. Smith (Bill Arp, OF
Gainesville, Ga, is expected to visit An
derson next week and deliver one or two
lectures during his stay. at this writing
the date of his lecture has not been def
nitely fixed. Mr.. Smith has attained ma
tional reputation as q humorist, and the
citizens of Anderson will doubtless give
him large audience. Tickets will be
sold at fifty cents, and part of the PRO-
ceeds of the lecture will be given to some
charitable purpose in our midst. If pos
sible we will give more definite informa-
ton next week. In the meantime we
would advise every person who can DO so
to get ready to 60 out and hear Bill Arp
when he comes.
Under an Act of the General Assembly,
passed at the last session, the Comptroller
General was instructed to investigate and
report at. the next session of the General
Assembly the names and conditions of all
citizens of this State who are unable to
earn livelihood by reason of wounds or
other disabilities incurred in the service
of the State in the late war. We are re-
quested by the Clerk of the Court to in.
form those of Anderson County who are
that he has been supplied with
quantity of blanks by the Comptroller
General, which he will be glad to furnish
all parties who are interested under the
Act.
We have been requested to state to the
public that complaint has been made to
the railroad authorities that boys congre-
gate about the trains for the purpose OF
riding from one depot to another in this
city, and by their thoughtless recklessness
endanger their lives. 1t is also nuisance
to the railroad men. Under these Cir
cumstances orders have been issued to the
conductors to arrest any boys so trespass-
ing and turn them over to magistrate.
1t is custom which ought to be stopped,
fora most serious accident is likely to
result if it is continued. Parents should
forbid their boys to hoard the trains in
this way, and thereby save the mortifca-
ton and annoyance of arrests, or, what
might be worse, the killing or serious
manning of child.
Mr.. L. P. Smith has returned from the
Gland of alligators and mosquitoes" and
is enthusiastic in his praises of the State.
He thinks Florida has glorious future.
During his stay there he made his head
quarters at Lake Wier. Like all other
visitors to that State, he tells some inter-
esting incidents of his trip. Forinstanco:
One day he went fishing on Lake Bower,
which is about mile around, and sue
ceeded in catching a number of fish.
When about ready to return to shore. he
hung fish, and as it seemed to be large
one, lie determined to drag it to the shore
and then land it. He did so, and when
he otthe fish on the shore there was not
enough wafer in the Lake to float his boat.
Friend Luther is strict Sunday School
man, but we think he is entitled "to the
cake" and therefore move it be turned
over to him.
We regret to announce the death of Mrs.
f. M. Glenn, which occurred at the resi-
dencc of her husband, Capt. T. NJ. Glenn,
in Garvin Township, in this County, on
Sunday, the 4th inst, at the advanced age
of seventy.four years. Mrs. Glenn was
a native of Laurens County, having been
born there in 1872, and having resided
there until 1S45, when she removed with
her husband, Capt. Glenn, to whom she
was married on December 23rd, 1S4l, to
Garvin Township, in this County, where
they have since resided. Mrs. Glenn had
been a consistent and devoted member Of
the Presbyterian Church for fifty-three
years previous to her death, and departed
with the hope of a blessed Immortality.
She was most exemplary Christian wo-
man, and was esteemed and beloved for
countless deeds of charity and acts Of
kindness to those who surrounded her.
She leaves husband and four sons and
a daughter, all of whom are honored and
useful members of society. Mrs. Glenn's
was the first death that has visited the I'M
mediate family of Capt F. M. Glenn, and
they have the sympathy of host of
friends in their bereavement.
