The expected cyclone struck the

Havana about midnight on the 4th.
Several vessels foundered of the coast
and two sailors were drowned. Many per.
sno swere injured. Walls. trees fences and
street lamps were blown down and
much damage was done to the wharves
at Havana. A telegram from Key

TO the westward of that place on the
evening of the 4th.
-Forty-three cases of yellow fever

Her hand, which still chung to his

the next moment stole softly into his.
They sat quite silent, and the endless
night drew Oh. Memories rose before
each of them OF hopes and dreams hat
had once been all in all, and now were
small and faint and UNNECESSARILY dis
tant. Around them, rising always,
surged the persistent waters. Now
and again, gusts of wind awoke sud-
denly and brought a sweep Of waves
over the submerged masonry.
Presently oozing drops began to creep
between the chImneys behind them.
I'VE must 60 up higher" said the
man.
They quilted their sheltered nook,
and, mounting, stood upon the plat
form of brick work. The wind flung
itself upon them In fury. They chung
to the chimneys and to each other, and
for a few minutes stood 50, battling
strenuously to keep their foothold.
The man cried out suddenly:
"Oh, if there were only some place
for you! 1t is too hard a death for you.

And even while lie spoke tue water
was up about their feet, suatching and
dragging at them.
81 am not sorry. And. oh, no, 1t Is
not hard; it is the best moment life has
ever brought me- she answered.
Her voice was blown away az it
crossed her lips. 1t was only because
they were uttered AT his ear that he
could hear her words. Aud his reply
the winds snatched and carried away
forever. The time Of words was over.
There was nothing now but hard-drawn
breath. and vail resistance, and then
a placid moon shining over a waste OF

EXCELSIOR NOTES.

Hills and hoilows have been visited
with another cold wave during the past
week and it is feared that small grain
has been injured to some degree.
Christmas has come and gone and we
extend a happy New Year TO all.
Mr.. Ebbie Long of the Ridge Road
section spent Il few days OF the past
week visiting relatives in this COM
munity.
The people in this community as i
general thing enjoyed pleasant time
during the holidays. Some went hunt
ing, some attended turkey dinners,
$ocialS, &C., and OF course your CORES
pondenu also enjoyed a pleasant time.
Mr.. G: A. Mills and family of No. 8
township paid a visit to friends in the
St. Paul's community last week.
Mrs. Alice Ward, of your town, spent
last week visiting relatives in this COM
munity, the guest of Mr.. B. B. Schum-
pert's family.
Miss Lila Werts, who has been teach
ing school over in Edge1ield during the
last three or four months spent last
week with relatives in the Mt. Pilgrim
community.
We were amused with the idea
which Mr.. "Yube" Of Prosperity, has
adopted in order to prepare sugar cured
hams. We have often heard it said
live and learn" and we believe this
to be a very good motto to be governed
by as this is the first time we ever heard
OF educated sugar being used in place Of
salt.
We regret very much that we could
not attend the Christmas tree Of Mr.. j.
S. Nheeler'S school ut Mt. Pilgrim
church on the evening OF the 24th as we
learn all who attended enjoyed quite a
pleasant time. We always enjoy such
entertainments.
The Christmas tree given at the En-
ce.sior Academy on the 2Gth was a
pleasant and enjoyable occasion for
both young and Old. The exercises
began ut 2 O'Clock and were opened
with prayer by the Rev. c. a. Marks,
Of Prosperity, and after an excellent
piece Of violin music Rev. Ma Ks ad-
dressed the audience showing whose
birth and why We celebrated the Christ
mas season of each year. Rev. Marks is
a good speaker and knows how to talk
to children. After the address next
thing in order was TO deliver the presents
that the beautiful tree contained, MAX
ing every little heart to be glad and re-
ioice that the Christ mas season had a
gain returned.
We clnnot close without compliment
| ing The excellent violin music furnished
for the occasion by Mr. Andrew P. Bo-
land and Miss Sallic Harman. There
was large crowd present, and every
body seemed to enjoy themselves. We
always enjoy such entertainmeuts-4es
We do. SIGMA.
