Sunday School Celebration at BeaYerdam
Church. There was large attendance.
Speeches were made by. Col. r. A. Child,
Rev. ID. I. Spearman. Messrs. G. e. Prince,
g. Wardlaw and j. E. Breazeale. There
was an elegant and sumptuous dinner
spread, at which all were amply satisfied.
Capt "A. M. .Guyton presided and intro
,duced the speakers. The people of that
vicinity deserve great credit for the very
successful manner in which they man.
aged this celebration and thesssood dinner
they gave those present.
The new hotel is an assured fact. The
stock holders met last Friday afternoon
and heard the report of the Committee
appointed to select site for the build
ing. The Committee recommended the
purchase Of the Waverly House property.
Architect Bruce, Of Atlanta, Ca, was
present at the meeting and give it as his
opinion that the Committee had made the
best selection Of any Of the sites offered.
The stock olders then unanimously adop-
ted the Recommendation of the Commit,
tee, and instructed them to go ahead and
conclude the trade. A call has been made
for2O per cent, Of the subscriptions, to be
paid inIbY list Of August. It is proposed
abegiA work on the new building as soon
as pes4ble.
The Stock Grazer, which has recently
been patented by Mr.. Lewis King, of Fork
Township, is certainly the best thing of
the kind that has yet been invented. In
deed, we believe it is impossible to invent
q better Grazer. It is durable, simple and
economical, as its use will save feed,
and prevent many COWS from breaking
their necks. Cease tying your cow by the
leg or horns to stake and purchase one
OF these Grazers. You will never regret
doing so. The Grazer is on exhibition at
the store of Mr.. John B. Watson, where
Messrs. J. Boyce Burriss and j. u. Glenn,
will take pleasure in showing it to you.
Mr.. W. ]. Hix has the right to sell the
Grazer in several counties. The Grazer
costs only $3.50.
The Sunday School pic mic at Broadway
School House.. near Erskine's Crossing,
was most pleasurable occasion, and
every one present seemed to enjey the
day. 6aeasafeffe re Made by Messrs. 9.
,Wardlaw, L. E. Campbell, Rev. A. p.
Nicholson and Mr.. D. n. Russell. Mr..
M. E. Mitchell presided and introduced
the speakers. A very fine dinner was
served, and the good citizens of that COM
munity saw that no one present was
sighted when the baskets were opened.
That section can't be. excelled for hospi-
tality. The Broadaway Sunday School is
superintendent by Mr.. j. B. Campbell,
and Is in f1ourishing condition, Both
old and young take consid erable interest
in the School, and are doing good work
in the Masters vineyard.

ter condition than it has been since 1t first
came into the possession of our Fire De-
partment. Last Friday evening the
steamer was brought out for trial and
threw stream 225 feet. 1t will be re-
membered that the Athens steamer won
the prize during the Tournament and only
threw water distance of 167 feet. The
Pioneer Reel Team were also out during
the trial of the steamer, and, after being
photographed, made several fine runs,
beating their record during the Tourna-
ment. The Pioneers have fine team,
and If they will continue to practice will
yet be the champions Of the State.
The Saluda Baptist Sunday School In
stitute met with the Bolton Church on
Tuesday, July 10th. and continued in ses..
sion three days. The meeting was one of
harmonious unity, and was conceded to
have been one of the most enjoyable and,
it is hoped, profitable Of any of the former
sessions. An excellent programme bad
been arranged. Nearly all of the speakers
were present and fulfilled most accepta-
bly, their allotted parts on the programme.
It is worthy of notice that the speeches
were Of high order. such as reflect great
credit upon the participants and Churches
which they represent. Rev. M. McGee,
who has faithfully served the Institute as
President for the past four years, declined
reelection, and Rev. D. Weston Hiott was
chosen as his successor. The homes of
the citizens of Bolton and vicinity were
thrown open 10 the delegates and visitors.
