A MUSICAL SHERIFF..

B. F. Ballew, the wortho high Sheriff of
the county, is musical genius, and pos
sessed Of wonderful powers OF mimicry.
He can initiate the notes ofnature's sweet
sOngster, the mocking bird, to perfection,
and performs deity upon violin, aecor-
deon, flute, clariOnet or any
other instrument. Originally a
shoemaker, when he left his
last to canvass for sheriff, he took his
melOdious magazine along with him and
gave a series of concerts all over the
county. The people listened, applauded
and voted for him. And it is but Just to
say that he makes a viglant and con-
sclentiOus custodian OF the peace.
When the Press Association met in
Beaufort Mr., Ballew was present as
visitor, and by his musical renditions and
exquisite mimicry SO charmed the de-
lighted editors that they elected him an
honorary member and took him along on
the press excursion to Florida.

LAuRFNs FEMALE COLLEGE,

which has just concluded its brilliant
commencement, is the pride OF the town.
On that occasion ten young ladies were
graduated, and crowded audiences at
tended all of the exercises. The college
is under the care of Ennoree Presbytery.
and Rev. DR.. EdmOnds, a distinguished
scholar and divine from Sumter county,
has recently been elected President by
the Board of Trustees. One hundred
girls are enrolled upon the catalogue.
THE MALE ACADEMY,
under the charge of Prof. Frank Evans,
is also in flourishng condition. The
pupils are thoroughly instructed and pre-
pared for any class in college. The an
nual exhibition of the school came of this
week, and the boys did credit to them
selves and teacher.
Stauzarne Wilson, A. NJ, OF Spartan
burg, pronounced the Anniversary ad-
dress, and his effort elected universal
commentator.
THE FOURTH ESTATE
is ably represented in Laurens. Here we
have the Laurensville Herald, established
in 1915, and since October, 1865, edited by
Thomas b. Crews, who owns a half in
terest in the paper. Col. h. Z. Watts is
the proprietor OF the other half Mr..
Crews, who for seven years was the pOpu-
lar President of the Carolina Press Asso-
citation, publishes an excellent journal,
and with the aid of his three stalwart
and intelligent sons, is independent
OF strikes, union leagues and all the rest
OF mankind. He is deservedly popular.
The Advertiser, by j. c. Darlington,
nephew of the late Gen. A. c. Darlington,
is another spicy candidate for public
favor. Albeit young man, mis- editorials
are well written and carefully considered,
and the influence of the paper is already
felt and recognized. We wish our con-
freres of both journals all the success they
so richly deserve,

THE COUNTY OFFICIALS

OF Laurens are exceptionally clever gen.
tlemen. G.. w. Shell, noted farmer, is
the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas
Hon, A. w. Burnside, the courteous
Probate Judge, has held the position for
ten wears, and has had but eight prede-
cessOrs during the past century. Good
behavior should always constitute the
tenure of this office. G. M. Langston is the
efficient County Auditor, and r. S. Griffin
School Commissioner. The COun ty
Treasurer, John II. Copeland, is justly
regarded one of the most reliable men in
the cOmmunity

AN ANCIENT FAME IN RUINS.

AS the visitor moves up the street from
the depot of the Augusta and Knoxville
railroad towards the hotel his attention is
riYeted by an imposing but dilapidated
structure, whose Masonic pillars still re-
main, while the roof has fallen in, and the
interior is open to the weather and the
abode OF bats and Migrants, Upon in
quiry the writer learned that this was a
"Seceders'" church, founded in the last
century and maintained by the bequest of
a deceased member. The fund lapsed
during the war, and since then the fine
old tabernacle has lapsed into ruin. 1t
had almostthe same interest to the writer
as the famous ''old milP' OF Newport, K. l..
MORE PERSONALS.
Or. John A. Barksdae is the President
Of the national bank about to begin busi-
ness shortly, with w. A. Watts cashier
and John Aug. Barksdale assistant
cashier. 1t will prove a great cOnve-
nience to the town. DR.. Barksdale is a
descendant of one Of the oldest families
in the state, and a gentleman of much
culture aud refinement.
Col. b. W. Ball Is another celebrity
thoroughly posted in the history and ira
ditions OF the past, and a most entertain
ing com panon. But this letter has al
ready exceeded all reasonable limits, and
the writer must abruptly say goodbye to
Laurens and her hospitable people.

most remarkable citizen in Laurens He
was literally reared from childhood she
hind the counter" but began business on
his own account in 1923. From that date
until January, 1868, period of thirty-six
years, without any change of firm and in
the same store, he continued his mercan-
tile operaff0ps and then took into cOpart-
nership his son-in-laW and sons, and is
still, after fifty-six years in harness, an
active member of the firm of Todd, Simp-
son & Co.
Mr. Todd is the President of the Board
of trustees of the Female College, and for
fifty years has of1iclated as
ruling elder in tAe Pres
byterian church. He is still, at the
age of 10, hale and hearty and a most val
liable member OF the community. In the
early days ofhis career, before the advent
OF railroads, all of his goods were
hauled from Charleston by wagon.

THE "BENDELLA HOTEL

This popular travellers home is kept by

AN ANGELS BIRTHDAY.

Selected in memory of little Guy Bacon,
November 10, 1886.
It's your birthday. my precious, my
darling,
Or, would be, If you were on earth;
| know y still must be your birthday,
Though born to your heavenly birth.
1 know that the angels have fairies as
sweet,
AS these fair earthly roses | Irvine:
Their love may be perfect, pure and
complete,
But never more tender than mine.
Are you glad in their gladness, my darl.
ing?
Do you laugh In your innocent glee?
Or, are you sad in the brightness Of heav.
en-,
In thinking of home and of me?
In the night when l long for your pres.
ence,
And water my pillow with tears,
When | prey for the touch of your fingers
To comfort my sorrows and fears,
SO light is the veil that Is between us.
The mother and the child are so near:
The breath of my soul is suspended,
For your accents so tender and clear.
OH my gloriied darling, most precious
or all the sweet gifts that were mine,
| have lent you, not lost you, my darling,
Only lent to the love that's Divine.
There are moments SO sweet and 40
solemn, IS 4tr
That my soul bursts its prison of pain.
And scars to the realms of the spirit,
And meets my own angel again.
Then calm from that sanity communion.
l defy every foe of the world,
| can scorn every breath of il, contumely.
Every shaft by Its ignorance hurled.
No black robes OF darkness and mourn.
ing
Should be worn for q spirit like thee
Only solemn Thanksgiving and blessing,
That you from earth's SORROWS are free.

The question IS constantly being asked

One of two things is true-the young
men of the town are more hayward, and
dissipated than they have ever been be.
fore, or they are less private and secret
about it. The truth of either of these
propositions should alarm every parent
in the place. 1t is often the subject Of
remark, that so few of our young men
take any interest in the young mems
prayer meeting, or habitually and regu-
larly attend church. Such a course upon
the part Of any young man will sooner
or later tell upon his morals. Every
young man in this town Is getting better
or worse. and a few years will reveal the
fact to the public. The young man who
stays away from the Church and keeps
late hours, will soon develop into a pro.
fame drunkard and gambler. and will no
seek to keep his crimes secret.
In view Of these terrible facts, what
ought the churches and the parents Of
the town to do2 Something must be
done and we call on our ministers to
lead in this matter. A PARENT.

A Good Now York Paper.

The politics Of The N. Y. Tribune
are perniciously Republican. But bar
ring politics. The Tribune Is a great
newspaper and a credit to the country.
1t is particularly valuable for the wide
range of its news and special features,
and the wholesome taste which pervades
Its columns. 1t is certainly one of the
safest of newspapers to be taken at home
TO be read by the family. 1t Is the rep
resentatiye paper of the Republican par
ty; Its work In the Blaine campaign gave
1t almost an official character, and any
Democrat who wishes 10 keep informed
Of the Vaccinations Of "our friends the
enemy" can probably gain the clearest
idea OF them by subscribing for The
Tribune. Its discussions Of practical
business topics, into which politics docs
not enter, are excellent. Tho Tribune
announces a Book Of Open dir Sports'
OF Its own compilation. The great growth
OF athletic amusements and field sports
In the United States makes this work n
timely one. See prospectus IN another
column.
